G4S To Take Over Running Of Government Discrimination Helpline, Yet are Complicit in Apartheid and Racism in Palestine

We haven’t seen this kind of hysteria since the darkest days of the cold war: a spy scare that is being utilized by one political party against another in a national election, with charges of disloyalty and even “treason” being hurled by one side against the other. The publication of the Democratic National Committee’s emails by WikiLeaks has caused a storm of spin and counter-spin that threatens to throw the entire election discourse off balance – not that it was all that centered, to begin with – and cause an international incident with perilous consequences for us all. The media, … Continue reading →

For months Donald Trump has bestowed the “Crooked Hillary” moniker upon the Democratic Presidential candidate with what appear to be very damaging results to her credibility and honesty. Always one to entertain, and often without a script, Trump has a couple of new nicknames he recently threw into the mix. First, knowing how effective the label was when applied to Jeb! Bush, Trump referred to Hillary as not just “low energy,” but noted that she is a “napper” who simply doesn’t have the ability to deal with the nation’s pressing issues: “She’s low energy. She actually is low energy,” Mr. Trump said … Continue reading →

This is an edited version of an address by John Pilger at the University of Sydney, entitled A World War Has Begun. I have been filming in the Marshall Islands, which lie north of Australia, in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Whenever I tell people where I have been, they ask, “Where is that?” If I offer a clue by referring to “Bikini”, they say, “You mean the swimsuit.” Few seem aware that the bikini swimsuit was named to celebrate the nuclear explosions that destroyed Bikini island. Sixty-six nuclear devices were exploded by the United States in the Marshall … Continue reading →

It is a dark night in New York, a city that knows how to keep its secrets. But on the top floor of Trump Tower, one man sits in solitude, tweeting out life’s painful truths. Donald Trump, billionaire. Far below, a black limousine pulls up at the rear entrance in an unlighted, narrow alley. A lone figure in dark glasses, a black trench coat, and an even blacker fedora alights with the agility of a seasoned athlete. He is quickly admitted. Running up the many flights to the top floor he is ushered into the billionaire’s presence.  He takes off … Continue reading →

A guy who smokes meth can pull a week of 15 hour days. But come next week… . That’s how artificial “incentives” work on the economy. On the macro level, it is the Boom – and Bust – business cycle, whose unnatural peaks and valleys are caused by manipulation of money and credit, which causes excessive and unwarranted “investment” that – inevitably – leads to a downturn (or even a crash) when the artificially induced supply is disproportionate to demand. The housing bubble of the early 2000s is an obvious example of this. Cash for Clunkers (same era) is another – … Continue reading →

By Dr. Mercola If you don’t drink enough water, you can easily become dehydrated. Many actually mistake their thirst for hunger, and this is one of the basic premises behind the idea that drinking water may alleviate hunger and help you lose weight. Many studies support this idea, though, so it’s not just pure hype. Most recently, researchers found that adults who were chronically under-hydrated had higher body mass index (BMI) and were more likely to be obese compared to well-hydrated adults.1,2,3,4,5 A BMI of 25 is considered overweight; 30 obese. Those deemed sufficiently hydrated had an average BMI of 28 … Continue reading →
