Henry Kissinger New World Order November 16, 2009
Bilderberg member and globalist Henry Kissisinger is interviewed by Charlie Rose on President Obama’s visit to China and their effect on the international economy. Kissinger calls for the fall and collapse of the U.S. dollar and the rise of the “New World Order.”
Global Warming Scientists: Data Manipulation, Bullying Critics (23 Nov 2009)
A major story is breaking in climate science, after hackers posted a 61 megabyte data file on a Russian server that appears to be confidential emails and climate data hacked from the UK Met Office.
The data raises major questions about the role of scientists in what appears to be a deliberate conspiracy to mislead the public:
Those involved allegedly include: James Hansen, Director of NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies; Michael Mann, famous for Mann’s “Hockey Stick”; Gavin Schmidt, NASA climate modeler, and; Stephen Schneider, Stanford professor and Al Gore confidant.
Al Jazeera interviews analysts on Blackwater – 25 Nov 09
A US magazine has reported that the private US military contractor formerly known as Blackwater is running covert operations in Pakistan.
Mosharraf Zaidi, a New York-based Pakistani journalist and columnist, and Jeffrey Addicott, a professor of law at St Mary’s University in San Antonio, Texas, speak to Al Jazeera on the subject.
Menezes family to receive compensation from police
The Metropolitan Police have reached a compensation deal with the family of Jean Charles de Menezes, mistakenly shot dead by officers in July 2005.
Relatives of the Brazilian, who was killed at Stockwell Tube station in south London, had been locked in a legal battle with the force.
The amount of compensation the family will receive has not been disclosed.
Climategate: the final nail in the coffin of ‘Anthropogenic Global Warming’?
If you own any shares in alternative energy companies I should start dumping them NOW. The conspiracy behind the Anthropogenic Global Warming myth (aka AGW; aka ManBearPig) has been suddenly, brutally and quite deliciously exposed after a hacker broke into the computers at the University of East Anglia’s Climate Research Unit (aka Hadley CRU) and released 61 megabites of confidential files onto the internet. (Hat tip: Watts Up With That)
When you read some of those files – including 1079 emails and 72 documents – you realise just why the boffins at Hadley CRU might have preferred to keep them confidential. As Andrew Bolt puts it, this scandal could well be “the greatest in modern science”. These alleged emails – supposedly exchanged by some of the most prominent scientists pushing AGW theory – suggest:
Conspiracy, collusion in exaggerating warming data, possibly illegal destruction of embarrassing information, organised resistance to disclosure, manipulation of data, private admissions of flaws in their public claims and much more.
One of the alleged emails has a gentle gloat over the death in 2004 of John L Daly (one of the first climate change sceptics, founder of the Still Waiting For Greenhouse site), commenting:
“In an odd way this is cheering news.”
But perhaps the most damaging revelations – the scientific equivalent of the Telegraph’s MPs’ expenses scandal – are those concerning the way Warmist scientists may variously have manipulated or suppressed evidence in order to support their cause.

The DNA snatchers: Police arresting innocents just to grab genetic details for Big Brother database
Police are arresting innocent people in order to get their hands on as many DNA samples as possible, senior Government advisers revealed last night.
The Human Genetics Commission said the Big Brother tactic was creating a ‘spiral of suspicion’ among the public.
The panel – which contains some of Britain’s leading scientists and academics – said officers should no longer routinely take samples at the point of arresting a suspect.
They also called for all police – including support staff – to place their own DNA on the national database in a show of solidarity with a public being routinely placed under suspicion.
By law, officers are only allowed to make an arrest if they have ‘ reasonable suspicion’ that a person has committed a crime.
But the HGC, which has carried out a lengthy review of the merits of the database, said evidence had emerged of police arresting people purely so they could take their DNA.
Government taking newborn DNA samples without permission
Mandatory collection of newborn’s DNA?! I wonder what they’re doing with that DNA that they collect without any consent?
National DNA Database:
In 2006 and 2007, then, Senator Obama, filed legislation that would create a national DNA database. The same bill was filed by Sen. Patrick Kennedy in 2008 . The bills required parental consent, but all three died in the Senate. A new proposal will likely find its way back into the pipeline in the near future. We are now living in the Orwellian nightmare.
Canada stops use of one batch of flu vaccine
WINNIPEG, Manitoba (Reuters) – Some Canadian provinces have stopped using a particular batch of the H1N1 flu vaccine after six people experienced severe allergic reactions, the country’s health agency said on Monday.
The Public Health Agency of Canada and vaccine manufacturer GlaxoSmithKline Plc have asked the governments of Manitoba, British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Ontario and Prince Edward Island — nearly half the country’s 13 provinces and territories — to stop using a batch of 172,000 doses.
Six allergic reactions from that size of a batch is a higher percentage than usual, said a spokeswoman for the Public Health Agency. Overall, the number of severe allergic reactions following H1N1 vaccinations is less than 1 per 100,000 doses, the norm for other vaccines.
All six people who experienced the allergic reactions have recovered, the spokeswoman said.
Copenhagen will fail – and quite right too
Exactly a fortnight from today, the United Nations climate change conference opens in Copenhagen. Its purpose is (or was) clear: to agree a successor to the Kyoto Protocol, which expires in 2012.
Under Kyoto, all those developed nations that ratified the treaty (all, in practice, except the US) agreed to cut their carbon emissions to 5 per cent below 1990 levels by 2012. The successor treaty, to be agreed at Copenhagen, was intended to secure a cut in global emissions, from the developed and developing world alike (and China has now overtaken even the US), of 50 per cent below 1990 levels by 2050, leading to more or less total decarbonisation by the end of the century.
As Gordon Brown declared in his Guildhall speech only a week ago, Copenhagen must “forge a new international agreement … [which] must contain the full range of commitments required: on emissions reductions by both developed and developing countries, on finance and on verification”.
This is a pretty tall order; and, needless to say, nothing of the sort will be agreed. Even if the Kyoto 5 per cent cut is achieved, it will be only because the developed world has effectively outsourced a large part of its emissions to countries, such as China and India, without Kyoto constraints. Not only is 50 per cent rather more severe than 5 per cent, but (except in the unlikely event of world industry migrating to Mars) a global target removes the escape route of outsourcing emissions.
Will Pentagon purge Oath Keepers?
St. Louis Gun Rights Examiner Kurt Hofmann speculates on potential consequences for a group of current and retired military and law enforcement personnel who believe their oath to the Constitution should have bearing on their professional conduct. In today’s column, he asks “Will Pentagon try to crush Oath Keepers?”
The immediate basis for Hofmann’s concern is a report following up on the Fort Hood shootings:
The Pentagon may reconsider rules governing participation in extremist organizations that some lawmakers say appear outdated and too narrow in light of the shooting rampage at the Army base in Texas.
Some have been following attempts to tar Constitutionalists as extremists for years. And some of us have repeated the warnings when we saw renewed smears. We raised concerns when we saw the infamous Department of Homeland Security report single out not just Constitutionalists for special scrutiny, but saw our government issue strident warnings such as:
The possible passage of new restrictions on firearms and the return of military veterans facing significant challenges reintegrating into their communities could lead to the potential emergence of terrorist groups or lone wolf extremists capable of carrying out violent attacks.
And we have not stood by silently when we saw some try to publicly affiliate Oath Keepers with “white supremacists, anti-Semites, nativists…and a range of other activists of the radical right [that] are cross-pollinating and may even be coalescing.”
The Pentagon is reconsidering affiliation restrictions: Current “rules prohibit membership or participation in ‘organizations that espouse supremacist causes,’ seek to discriminate based on race, religion or other factors or advocate force or violence. Commanders can investigate and can discipline or fire people who ‘actively participate in such groups.’”
H1N1 vaccinations under scrutiny – 23 Nov 09
When swine flu was first identitified it sent the world into a panic, then the World Health Organisation declared it a pandemic.
The H1N1 virus, as it came to be known, has since spread to 206 countries and overseas territories around the globe.
More than 6,700 people have died, and over 70 million vaccines have been distributed.
As winter sets in across the northern hemisphere, Dan Nolan looks into whether those vaccines safe or not.
The Corporate Media’s Dancing Monkeys
Written by I remember at one point during the Bush years, when things looked particularly dark and the police state was closing in, I saw Youtube clips of a man by the name of Keith Olbermann speak poignantly to power about the evisceration of our constitution. He pointed out to President Bush that most of the first ten amendments, the portion of the Constitution known as the Bill of Rights, had been violated by the laws that at the time had recently been passed. Week after week, for a time, he admonished the administration and berated Bush for dishonoring the ideals that this nation supposedly stands for and violating the Constitution, a document they swore an oath to defend. For a moment in time, I found hope in the fact that someone in the mainstream media seemed to get it, that someone seemed to understand the concepts of freedom and liberty and was pointing out the abuser and ringing the alarm bells against the coming fascism. Then something happened. READ MORE »
