Aaron Russo " America: From Freedom to Fascism"

Aaron Russo
February 14, 1943 - August 24, 2007


Aaron Russo was an amazing American.  He was a famous Broadway and movie producer, and produced such classics as “The Rose and “Trading Places. However, his greatness did not come from those commercially succesful movie. His greatness came from his dedication to bringing forth the truth to the American people about what America had turned into.  Towards that end he produced two legendary documentaries.  “Mad as Hell” and “America from Freedom to Fascism.  While Mr. Russo was making the latter documentary he was battling Cancer and died shortly after finishing the movie on August 24, 2007 at age 64. He is dearly missed.

If you want to really see an American Hero’s perspective on the truth, please watch the following videos.  This will open your eyes like nothing else you will see.

The Worst Environmental Disaster in the World, the Canadian Tar Sands

The Canadian tar sands are probably the worst environment disaster in the World today. The area of the tar sands takes up a territory of a small country and generates more yearly green house gases than the entire country of Switzerland. But the real damage is being done in the refining process. To get one barrel of oil out of the tar sands, the refining process creates a barrel and half of deadly cancer causing toxins heavy metals like mercury, lead and arsenic.
They then put these toxic residues into retention ponds that then seep the deadly toxin into the ground water and rivers and are causing high incident rates of deadly cancer to the indigenous people living in the area. Further, the smoke that pours out of the refineries 24 hours a day is also laced with deadly toxins that land in rivers; stream and land the indigenous people use to live off of.  But the bigger pictures is that these deadly cancer causing heavy metals will find their way into the environmental echo systems all over the world over time as more and more companies and country’s rush to the Canadian Tar Fields to get a piece of the action. How long can mother earth tolerate this kind of flagrant abuse before the entire life support system is eradicated?

Below is an article by Georger Monbiot and also a link to a very revealing video documentary about this immense problem.

This documentary is in two parts when you finish viewing the first part, scroll down to the second part.

When you think of Canada, which qualities come to mind? The world's peacekeeper, the friendly nation, a liberal counterweight to the harsher pieties of its southern neighbour, decent, civilised, fair, well-governed? Think again. This country's government is now behaving with all the sophistication of a chimpanzee's tea party. So amazingly destructive has Canada become, and so insistent have my Canadian friends been that I weigh into this fight, that I've broken my self-imposed ban on flying and come to Toronto.

So here I am, watching the astonishing spectacle of a beautiful, cultured nation turning itself into a corrupt petro-state. Canada is slipping down the development ladder, retreating from a complex, diverse economy towards dependence on a single primary resource, which happens to be the dirtiest commodity known to man. The price of this transition is the brutalisation of the country, and a government campaign against multilateralism as savage as any waged by George Bush.

Until now I believed that the nation that has done most to sabotage a new climate change agreement was the United States. I was wrong. The real villain is Canada. Unless we can stop it, the harm done by Canada in December 2009 will outweigh a century of good works.

In 2006 the new Canadian government announced it was abandoning its targets to cut greenhouse gases under the Kyoto protocol. No other country that had ratified the treaty has done this. Canada was meant to have cut emissions by 6% between 1990 and 2012. Instead they have already risen by 26%.

It is now clear that Canada will refuse to be sanctioned for abandoning its legal obligations. The Kyoto protocol can be enforced only through goodwill: countries must agree to accept punitive future obligations if they miss their current targets. But the future cut Canada has volunteered is smaller than that of any other rich nation. Never mind special measures; it won't accept even an equal share. The Canadian government is testing the international process to destruction and finding that it breaks all too easily. By demonstrating that climate sanctions aren't worth the paper they're written on, it threatens to render any treaty struck at Copenhagen void.

After giving the finger to Kyoto, Canada then set out to prevent the other nations striking a successor agreement. At the end of 2007, it singlehandedly blocked a Commonwealth resolution to support binding targets for industrialised nations. After the climate talks in Poland in December 2008, it won the Fossil of the Year award, presented by environmental groups to the country that had done most to disrupt the talks. The climate change performance index, which assesses the efforts of the world's 60 richest nations, was published in the same month. Saudi Arabia came 60th. Canada came 59th.
In June this year the media obtained Canadian briefing documents which showed the government was scheming to divide the Europeans. During the meeting in Bangkok in October, almost the entire developing world bloc walked out when the Canadian delegate was speaking, as they were so revolted by his bullying. Last week the Commonwealth heads of government battled for hours (and eventually won) against Canada's obstructions. A concerted campaign has now begun to expel Canada from the Commonwealth.

In Copenhagen next week, this country will do everything in its power to wreck the talks. The rest of the world must do everything in its power to stop it. But such is the fragile nature of climate agreements that one rich nation – especially a member of the G8, the Commonwealth and the Kyoto group of industrialised countries – could scupper the treaty. Canada now threatens the wellbeing of the world.

Why? There's a simple answer: Canada is developing the world's second largest reserve of oil. Did I say oil? It's actually a filthy mixture of bitumen, sand, heavy metals and toxic organic chemicals. The tar sands, most of which occur in Alberta, are being extracted by the biggest opencast mining operation on earth. An area the size of England, comprising pristine forests and marshes, will be be dug up – unless the Canadians can stop this madness. Already it looks like a scene from the end of the world: the strip-miners are creating a churned black hell on an unimaginable scale.

To extract oil from this mess, it needs to be heated and washed. Three barrels of water are used to process one barrel of oil. The contaminated water is held in vast tailings ponds, some so toxic that the tar companies employ people to scoop dead birds off the surface. Most are unlined. They leak organic poisons, arsenic and mercury into the rivers. The First Nations people living downstream have developed a range of exotic cancers and auto-immune diseases.

Refining tar sands requires two to three times as much energy as refining crude oil. The companies exploiting them burn enough natural gas to heat six million homes. Alberta's tar sands operation is the world's biggest single industrial source of carbon emissions. By 2020, if the current growth continues, it will produce more greenhouse gases than Ireland or Denmark. Already, thanks in part to the tar mining, Canadians have almost the highest per capita emissions on earth, and the stripping of Alberta has scarcely begun.

Canada hasn't acted alone. The biggest leaseholder in the tar sands is Shell, a company that has spent millions persuading the public that it respects the environment. The other great greenwasher, BP, initially decided to stay out of tar. Now it has invested in plants built to process it. The British bank RBS, 70% of which belongs to you and me (the government's share will soon rise to 84%), has lent or underwritten £8bn for mining the tar sands.

The purpose of Canada's assault on the international talks is to protect this industry. This is not a poor nation. It does not depend for its economic survival on exploiting this resource. But the tar barons of Alberta have been able to hold the whole country to ransom. They have captured Canada's politics and are turning this lovely country into a cruel and thuggish place.

Canada is a cultured, peaceful nation, which every so often allows a band of Neanderthals to trample over it. Timber firms were licensed to log the old-growth forest in Clayaquot Sound; fishing companies were permitted to destroy the Grand Banks: in both cases these get-rich-quick schemes impoverished Canada and its reputation. But this is much worse, as it affects the whole world. The government's scheming at the climate talks is doing for its national image what whaling has done for Japan.

I will not pretend that this country is the only obstacle to an agreement at Copenhagen. But it is the major one. It feels odd to be writing this. The immediate threat to the global effort to sustain a peaceful and stable world comes not from Saudi Arabia or Iran or China. It comes from Canada. How could that be true?

Peter Fonda Calls President Obama a Traitor


Everytime I read something about the Obama Administration I think this has to top everything, that is until I read the next stunner. Anyone that has any doubts about which way the Manchurian President is leaning has to only read the following report.  I don't know how much more the people are going to take before the revolution starts.
A Christian who wins the Presidency of the Ivory Coast, is then thrown out of office and a Muslim installed by the UN and the US and now they are out to kill the Christians. This is just an outrage, where are the voices of Christian churches, Christian organizations, Christian Media, and the Tea Party? This Government is worst than a communist Government, at least Communist leaders don't run around in sheep's clothing, you know where they stand! I guess this is just one more reason for Obama to have that stupid smile on his face that he wears like a Halloween mask. A more accurate mask would be the skull and bones and the look of death, which is exactly what he is bringing about in the country and the world. If he's not the Antichrist, he is sure giving a good imitation so far.
See Peter Fonda's comment below, I always liked this guy, now I know why. Where are the Christian voices? Where are the Tea Party Voices? Where are the conservative voices? That's the real disgrace.

MUSLIMS TO CHRISTIANS: 'WE'RE COMING FOR YOU' (Ivory Coast)
Missionary says plight desperate after political unrest in Ivory Coast

"Once we take control we're coming for you." That's the message Christians in the Ivory Coast got from Muslims during a long-fought dispute over the nation's presidency, an election late last year apparently won by a Christian candidate when the government found voter fraud in Muslim regions. But that result was overturned following intervention by the United Nations and the United States, who insisted that the Muslim candidate be given the office. Which puts Muslims now in "control." A missionary who asked to be called only Pastor Andrew serves in the Ivory Coast and says that the administration of newly inaugurated president Alessane Ouattara, a Muslim, has shut off the Internet and now likely is tapping the Christians' telephones. "Just before (the civil war), they were warning the Christians that when we get in power, the first [thing] we're going to do is come against the church. We're coming to get you," Andrew revealed. "And so they did. Right at this moment we've been cut off for over a month. They have shut down the Internet so they (the Christians) can't communicate with the outside," Andrew said. "Then we were advised not to talk to them by phone because they have phone taps. So to protect them, we're not communicating directly into the country," Andrew added . . . The actions of Ouattara's forces since his installation as president point to the issue of why the international community would support Ouattara. Andrew says there is a threefold reason. "This has been between the predominantly Muslim north and the Christian south. It has been a mandate of the Islam world to take more control of more land, more people, and more resources and that's part of their mandate," Andrew explained ... [emphasis added]
Cannes 2011: Peter Fonda encourages his grandchildren to take up arms against President Barack Obama
Peter Fonda, the star of Easy Rider, says he is training his grandchildren to use rifles for a conflict with President Barack Obama.

“I’m training my grandchildren to use long-range rifles,” said the actor, 71. “For what purpose? Well, I’m not going to say the words 'Barack Obama’, but …”
He added, enigmatically: “It’s more of a thought process than an actuality, but we are heading for a major conflict between the haves and the have nots. I came here many years ago with a biker movie and we stopped a war. Now, it’s about starting the world.
“I prefer to not to use the words, 'let’s stop something’. I prefer to say, 'let’s start something, let’s start the world’.
“There’s no room any more for a cissy and, like I said, don’t forget that I’ve got grandsons who I’ve trained with long-distance rifles. We have to run like mofos to change this world.
Cannes 2011: Peter Fonda calls Obama a 'traitor'
Peter Fonda, star of Easy Rider, attacks President Barack Obama and BP over Gulf oil spill.            
Peter Fonda launched a four-letter attack on US President Barack Obama - and BP - at the Cannes film festival, calling him a traitor over the handling of the aftermath of the Gulf oil spill.
The star of the 1969 road movie Easy Rider was in Cannes for the premiere of The Big Fix by Rebecca and Josh Tickell, the only feature documentary in the official selection at the Cannes film festival this year.
Fonda - a keen environmentalist and co-producer of the film which centres on the explosion of the BP oil rig Deepwater Horizon, the ensuing spill and its consequences - accused Washington of trying to gag reporting on the issue.
"I sent an email to President Obama saying, 'You are a f------ traitor,' using those words... 'You're a traitor, you allowed foreign boots on our soil telling our military - in this case the coastguard - what they can and could not do, and telling us, the citizens of the United States, what we could or could not do'."
Fonda, who said he sent the email last week, appears in The Big Fix trying to get on to Louisiana beaches to assess the impact of the biggest oil spill in US history, only to be turned away by BP clean-up personnel. 
Speaking at a press event at the American Pavilion to promote the film, Fonda denounced BP as "a bunch of Brits - I thought we kicked them out a long time ago. They tried to get back in in 1812, but they didn't make it."

Dark Energy Is Driving Universe Apart

Dark Energy Is Driving Universe Apart: NASA's Galaxy Evolution Explorer Finds Dark Energy Repulsive

New results from NASA's Galaxy Evolution Explorer and the Anglo-Australian Telescope atop Siding Spring Mountain in Australia confirm that dark energy (represented by purple grid) is a smooth, uniform force that now dominates over the effects of gravity (green grid). The observations follow from careful measurements of the separations between pairs of galaxies (examples of such pairs are illustrated here). (Credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech




ScienceDaily (May 19, 2011) — A five-year survey of 200,000 galaxies, stretching back seven billion years in cosmic time, has led to one of the best independent confirmations that dark energy is driving our universe apart at accelerating speeds.

The survey used data from NASA's space-based Galaxy Evolution Explorer and the Anglo-Australian Telescope on Siding Spring Mountain in Australia. The findings offer new support for the favored theory of how dark energy works -- as a constant force, uniformly affecting the universe and propelling its runaway expansion. They contradict an alternate theory, where gravity, not dark energy, is the force pushing space apart. According to this alternate theory, with which the new survey results are not consistent, Albert Einstein's concept of gravity is wrong, and gravity becomes repulsive instead of attractive when acting at great distances.

"The action of dark energy is as if you threw a ball up in the air, and it kept speeding upward into the sky faster and faster," said Chris Blake of the Swinburne University of Technology in Melbourne, Australia. Blake is lead author of two papers describing the results that appeared in recent issues of the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society. "The results tell us that dark energy is a cosmological constant, as Einstein proposed. If gravity were the culprit, then we wouldn't be seeing these constant effects of dark energy throughout time."

Dark energy is thought to dominate our universe, making up about 74 percent of it. Dark matter, a slightly less mysterious substance, accounts for 22 percent. So-called normal matter, anything with atoms, or the stuff that makes up living creatures, planets and stars, is only approximately four percent of the cosmos.
The idea of dark energy was proposed during the previous decade, based on studies of distant exploding stars called supernovae. Supernovae emit constant, measurable light, making them so-called "standard candles," which allows calculation of their distance from Earth. Observations revealed dark energy was flinging the objects out at accelerating speeds.

The new survey provides two separate methods for independently checking these results. This is the first time astronomers performed these checks across the whole cosmic timespan dominated by dark energy. Astronomers began by assembling the largest three-dimensional map of galaxies in the distant universe, spotted by the Galaxy Evolution Explorer.

"The Galaxy Evolution Explorer helped identify bright, young galaxies, which are ideal for this type of study," said Christopher Martin, principal investigator for the mission at the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena. "It provided the scaffolding for this enormous 3-D map."

The team acquired detailed information about the light for each galaxy using the Anglo-Australian Telescope and studied the pattern of distance between them. Sound waves from the very early universe left imprints in the patterns of galaxies, causing pairs of galaxies to be separated by approximately 500 million light-years.
Blake and his colleagues used this "standard ruler" to determine the distance from the galaxy pairs to Earth. As with the supernovae studies, this distance data was combined with information about the speeds the pairs are moving away from us, revealing, yet again, the fabric of space is stretching apart faster and faster.
The team also used the galaxy map to study how clusters of galaxies grow over time like cities, eventually containing many thousands of galaxies. The clusters attract new galaxies through gravity, but dark energy tugs the clusters apart. It slows down the process, allowing scientists to measure dark energy's repulsive force.
"Observations by astronomers over the last 15 years have produced one of the most startling discoveries in physical science; the expansion of the universe, triggered by the big bang, is speeding up," said Jon Morse, astrophysics division director at NASA Headquarters in Washington. "Using entirely independent methods, data from the Galaxy Evolution Explorer have helped increase our confidence in the existence of dark energy."

Hedge Fund Farms for Doomsday


May 17, 2011 | 8:16 p.m

So the logic is that not only is the dollar worth far less than we think it is, but everything is more expensive and will only move further in that direction. Especially food, the value of which may have risen due to population increases, especially in places like China, where a consumer-happy middle class has finally started to emerge.
 The rising cost of food can be seen even in New York's yuppiest enclaves, where prices are high to begin with. Bloomberg food critic Ryan Sutton has been running a blog called The Price Hike wherein he measures the shifting costs of food at the plate in Manhattan restaurants. Mario Batali's Del Posto is charging 21 percent more per meal since October. Gordon Ramsay at The London? Sixty-nine percent more since last month. Michelin favorite Bouley? Forty percent. The Breslin, at the Ace Hotel? Thirty-three percent. And so on.
But farmland isn't an option for most investors. Farming is still mostly made up of family-run businesses, in the U.S., at least. Much of the farmland being purchased in America is purchased at estate sales. Pure-play farming isn't a readily available product.

You can invest in John Deere for equipment; you can invest in Monsanto for seeds and agricultural tech. You can even invest in Kraft, which puts the plants on the supermarket shelf. But for now, it's difficult to invest in a one-stop-shop farm. Additionally, there isn't much arable land out there, it's not increasing, and the quality of the land varies from parcel to parcel. And to make money off a farmland investment, you can't just sit on it. You have to know what to do with it. "If you farm it like we do, you can generate a yield," says the hedge fund manager. "We think the farmland will be worth 5 to 10 percent more every year, and on top of that, you get the commodities yield." In other words, hedge funds are growing, picking and selling corn.

Asked if the American public would eventually see a chance to invest in Old McHedgeFund's farm one day, the manager replied in the affirmative:  "Yes. Without a doubt." He estimated it would be only a few years before this happened. Just two weeks ago, Bloomberg Businessweek reported that El Tejar SA, the world's largest grain producer, is planning on selling $300 million of bonds this year before a planned IPO. The plans for the IPO will be fast-tracked pending the sale of the bonds. If farming IPOs begin to emerge en masse, then farming-already often a dicey proposition simply on the basis of its being difficult to do correctly, the volatility of the weather and the possibility of entire crops going bad-may be vulnerable to a bubble.

There is, of course, a slightly more sinister reason to develop a sudden interest in agriculture. Last year, Marc Faber recommended to anyone: "Stock up on a farm in northern Norway and learn to drive a tractor." He sees a "dirty war" on the horizon, playing on fears of a biological attack poisoning food supplies. Those sort of fears drive capital into everything from gold (recently at an all-time high and a long-time safe haven for investors with currency concerns) to survivalist accoutrements. In this particular case, one might buy the farm in order to avoid buying the farm.

That may seem extreme, but even the lesser scenarios are frightening to some. When asked if this is an end-of-the-world situation, the hedge fund manager replied: "It really is. I tell my fiancée this from time to time, and I've stopped telling her this, because it's not the most pleasant thought." He pauses for a moment. "We just can't keep living the way we're living. It'll end within our lifetime. We're just going to run out of certain things. We'll just have to learn how to adjust."

So the logic is that not only is the dollar worth far less than we think it is, but everything is more expensive and will only move further in that direction.

DOES THE TRUTH MATTER?

Does this building look like it's falling
or exploding?
Our mantra is, "know the TRUTH and the TRUTH will set you free".  So does the truth matter to you? Can you discern the ring of Truth when you hear it? Where do you get your information to decide what the truth is?

These are important questions, which could end up saving or costing your life. For example, millions of people in Nazi Germany were killed, because they failed to understand the truth about their Government. Many will say, oh but that was Nazi Germany that could never happen in America! That's exactly what the Democratic people of Germany thought too! Naomi Wolf wrote an excellent book on this entitled “The End of America” and compares what was going on in Germany in the 1930’s to what is going in America today. This is one good resource where you can get some factual historical truth. 


You have to understand how the ruling elite think and how they get the masses to go along with the their New World Order Programs.  Zbigniew Brezezinshi stated the following:


"Moreover, as America becomes an increasingly multi-cultural society, it may find it more difficult to fashion a consensus on foreign policy issues, except in the circumstance of a truly massive and widely perceived direct external threat."
(p. 211 in his book, “The Grand Cheesboard”).



Brezezinski was just more ambiguously quoting Hermann Goering who said the same think years ago in Nazi Germany. 

 "The people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same way in any country."


Hermann Goering
German Nazi marshal & politician (1893 - 1946)



The naked girl was hit by a US Napalm Bomb.
Do you think that was a terrorist act?
So with that historical perspective, let's look back on what happened in Vietnam War.  Robert McNamara, the then secretary of defense, in his Book called “In Retrospect”, stated  "WE WERE WRONG".  In that wrong war the US killed 3 million people, including 60,000 US troops. How did we get into that WRONG WAR? It was based on a BIG LIE, stating that the North Vietnamese attacked our destroyer in the Gulf of Tonkin. That prompted the US Congress to pass the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution authorizing military action. The BIG LIE, that was knowingly told by the US Government, later came to light, but not before the US had killed millions over ten years. 





Why use road side bombs when you have these?
Think about that for a minute….the US Government killed 3 million plus people during that wrong war and no one was tried for war crimes. How many people do you think Osama Ben Laden and Al Queda have killed in the last 10 years? Nowhere near that number. Why? Because they don't have the vast military and state of the art weapons to to kill vast numbers of people. Forget about truck bombs, car bombs or road side bombs. The US pulls out all their weapons of mass destruction, B29 and Stealth Bombers, ship launched cruise missiles, attack planes, helicopter guns ships and of course the Predator Drones. We launch these weapons at God knows who and often times they end up killing thousands of innocent people. 


So who is the bigger terrorist?

Air Strikes are much more destructive that car bombs.
The definition of a terrorist is one who uses violence and indiscriminate acts of violence that kills numerous people in order to achieve one's ends, especially one's political ends. What's the difference if the Taliban uses roadside bombs that kills innocent people indiscriminately trying to achieve their political ends, or if the US military uses Predator Drones that kills innocent people indiscriminately trying to achieve their political ends?  The truth is there is no difference, dead is dead, whether it’s people killed by road side bombs or Predator Drones, it's still an act of terrorism, no matter who detonates the bomb!


Air Strikes kills 12 children and 2 women. (see smoke)
By SOLOMON MOORE and MIRWAIS KHAN, Associated Press Solomon Moore And Mirwais 
Khan, Associated Press – Sun May 29, 9:38 am ET
KABUL, Afghanistan – 


A NATO airstrike targeting insurgents inadvertently hit two civilian homes in the volatile southwestern Helmand province, killing 12 children and two women, an Afghan government official said Sunday.

Dawood Ahmadi, a spokesman for the provincial government, said the alliance launched the airstrike late on Saturday in retaliation for an attack earlier in the day on a U.S. Marine base in Helmand's northwest district of Nawzad. He said NATO hit two civilian houses, killing five girls, seven boys and two women. President Karzai blamed American troops for airstrikes that killed the 14 women and children and two men, injuring of six other civilians. "The US is committing terrorists acts just as bad as the Taliban, this has to stop, it's making the problem worst".

Since the US launched theirr war in Afghanistan in 2001, tens of thousands of innocent people have been killed by US  bombs, many of them women and children. Every time we kill one person we create a hundred new enemies who then want to kill us because we killed their fathers, mothers, sisters, brothers or friends. It then becomes all about revenge and it will never stop until the US stops the killing and that is when the war is stopped.

Has all this killing made us safer? Not one bit and in fact it has made us less safe especially from our own Government. That is why THE TRUTH about what happened on 911 is so important; it was the justification for going to war.  A war that is going on 11 years now, which is getting thousands of people killed every week. Was 911 just another BIG LIE, like the BIG LIE in Vietnam?  Then it was the communist phobia, now it's the Muslim terrorist’s phobia. What’s the difference?  They both use fear mongering as a motivator for the American people to support false flag wars without end.

Again, does this building look like it is
falling or exploding?
THE TRUTH about 911 needs to come out. Millions of people are coming to understand that the Government story is another BIG LIE and that lie is being covered up by the major news media.  Below is a link to a video, which I believe, is the best video ever produced about what really happened to the world trade center buildings and building number 7; and what caused those buildings to come crashing down at free fall speed and in their own foot print just hours later. Keeping in mind that building number 7 was not even hit by a plane.  

This video was produced by Architects and Engineers for 911 Truth and is based on hard evidence and facts and not speculation. Take a little time to view it and then make up your own mind about what you think brought those buildings down, and the implications if they were brought down by controlled demolition. Did the Government pull off another false flag operation like they did in the Gulf of Tonkin to give them justification to launch these wars without end?  Be your own detective, keep an open mind and in the end you will find out what the truth really is and then you can act on it. 


Same question, does this building
look like it is falling or exploding?
WATCH THE VIDEO AND FIND OUT!
Don't be deceived by another BIG LIE! 911 was carried out by elements of the US Government in concert with the ruling elite to bring about the New World Order. They used it as a pretext to eviscerate personal freedoms and the constitution. The President has become a dictator that ignores Congress and rules by directives and through his Czars. They want to crash the country with debt so they can use that crisis to raise up the New World Order out of the ashes, which will relegate people to economic serfs. The TRUTH does matter…watch this documentary about 911 and let the truth set you free to act! Pass this on to everyone you know. Let Freedom and the Truth Ring! DON'T BUY THE BIG LIE!

 "The people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same way in any country."  Hermann Goering

What is a False Flag Attack? Would You Believe it's an American Tradition?

There is ample evidence that 911 was a false flag attack, please read out reports entitled "911 Truth Report" and "Scientists find thermite explosives in the 911 dust. Yes that's right there was nano thermite in the 911 dust and why isn't that being reported by the lame stream media? 

So what is a false Flag Attack. There is an excellent report by Stephen Lendman who lays it our pretty well and I thought I would share it with you on the Truth Report 101. Believe it or not it is an American Tradition and it has been used over and over again by the US Governement to get us into one war after another. 

False Flags - An American Tradition 
By Stephen Lendman 
May 7, 2011

Wikipedia defines false or black flags attacks: as "covert operations designed to deceive the public in such a way that the operations appear as though they are being carried out by other entities." 

They're "big lies," defined by Merriam-Webster as "deliberate gross distortion(s) of the truth used especially as a propaganda tactic." 

America's decade from September 11, 2001 to May 1, 2011 was punctuated by the (big) lie of our time and (big) lie of the moment. 

Put another way, the official stories are falsified, myths, widely believed fantasies contrary to reality. 

In his exhaustive research and writings, David Ray Griffin provided convincing evidence that 9/11 was an inside job and that bin Laden died of natural causes in mid-December 2001. 

The former spawned a decade of overt and covert "war on terror" lawlessness at home and abroad. Policies and events following the second have yet to unfold, but expect little at best to be positive. 

Past US false flags provided pretexts for militarism, wars, occupations, domestic repression, and national security state extremism, antithetical to democratically free and open societies. Allegedly removing America's "Enemy Number One," in fact, may intensify, not diminish, Washington's scheme for unchallengeable global dominance. More on him below. 

With or without bin Laden, bogymen threats are plentiful. Since WW II alone, America's had numerous ones, including communists, Al Qaeda, WMDs, the Taliban, Gaddafi, and a host others yet unnamed, as well as numerous "foiled" domestic ones. 

Among others, they include: 

-- a fake shoe bomber; 

-- fake underwear bomber; 

-- fake Times Square bomber; 

-- an earlier one there; 

-- fake shampoo bombers; 

-- fake Al Qaeda woman planning fake mass casualty attacks on New York landmarks; 

-- fake Oregon bomber; 

-- fake armed forces recruiting station bomber; 

-- fake synagogue bombers; 

-- fake Chicago Sears Tower bombers; 

-- fake FBI and other building bombers; 

-- fake National Guard, Fort Dix and Quantico marine base attackers; 

-- fake 9/11 bombers; and 
-- others to enlist public support for the fake war on terror and very real ones it spawned. 

America, Pakistan, Bin Laden, Official Lies, and Misreporting 

On May 5, New York Times writer Elisabeth Bumiller headlined, "Pentagon Breaks Silence on Pakistani Role," saying: 

A "top Pentagon official said....Pakistan would have to work hard to rebuild relations with the United States Congress," including a commitment "to fighting terrorism...." 

It suggests what some analysts suspect: namely, planned destabilization, confrontation, and balkanization for greater Eurasian control, as well as future terrorist false flags. 

On May 5, Times writers Mark Mazzetti and Scott Shane headlined, "Data Show Bin Laden Plots; CIA Hid Near Raided House," saying: 

Alleged "computer files and documents seized at the compound where Osama bin Laden was killed," reveal "considered attacks on American railroads, (but) there was no evidence of a specific plot." 

Perhaps no files and documents either. For sure, no bin Laden. 

Nonetheless, "(s)ince Sunday night, counterterrorism officials have been alert to (possible) new attacks from Al Qaeda to avenge its leader's death," especially at airports, rail facilities, and other strategic locations. "American officials and terrorism experts have warned that this is not the end of Al Qaeda," not, of course, if they're blamed for planned false flags to intensify US imperial wars. 

Another May 5 Bumiller Times report ran cover for shifting official accounts about what really happened on May 1 headlined, "Raid Account, Hastily Told, Proves Fluid," saying: 

"(I)t was a classic collision of a White House desire to promote a stunning national security triumph - and feed a ravenous media - while collecting facts from a chaotic military operation on the other side of the world. At the same time, White House officials worked hard to use the facts of the raid to diminish Bin Laden's legacy." 

She continued, quoting an unnamed Pentagon official claiming no "intent to deceive or dramatize," adding that "Everything we put out we really believed to be true at the time." She also quoted Victoria Clarke, Bush Pentagon spokeswoman, saying, "First reports are always wrong. It's a fundamental truth in military affairs." 

In other words, it was OK first to claim a fierce firefight in which no US forces were killed or hurt, then 24 hours later call the battle one-sided, Navy Seals quickly dispatching bin Laden's guards and "Enemy Number One," shooting him unarmed in the head. 

Notably, however, there's no body, no photos, no video, no evidence, and no truth, just the media regurgitated big lie. 

In fact, more lies compounded it, including about: 

-- Pakistan's alleged knowledge of his presence; 
-- claimed evidence confirming it and assault specifics; and 

-- fabricated bad theater, explained in a slapdash, keystone cops manner. 

High Level Skepticism 

Appearing on CNN May 5, former Pakistani intelligence chief, Hamid Gul, told "In the Arena's" host Eliot Spitzer that bin Laden died years earlier, saying: 

"Yes, I think he died - he perished some years ago, and I think this was a story which was created (because) nobody would want to believe this version....I (don't believe) the story which was given out by the American media and by the American administration." 

Whoever was killed May 1 "was probably somebody else....(American authorities) must have known that he died some years ago....were keeping this story on the ice and they were looking for an appropriate moment" to announce it. 

"(P)eople simply not in Pakistan alone but around the world....don't believe the stories that have been put out." 

In other words, the entire account was fabricated, the event staged, Western media, including The New York Times, running cover for the big lie. Gul politely called it "a huge intelligence failure." 

Notable American and Other False Flags 

Discussed in earlier writing, numerous ones stand out, including: 

-- In 1898, Spain was falsely accused of blowing up the USS Maine in Havana, Cuba harbor. The Spanish-American war followed. 

-- On May 7, 1915, a German U-boat was accused of torpedoing the RMS Lusitania, killing 128 US citizens. It helped precipitate America's April 4, 1917 WW I entry, a war Woodrow Wilson wanted and got through a propaganda campaign, turning pacifist Americans into German haters. It was later learned that on board munitions, not a torpedo, exploded, sinking the ship. 

-- In 1933 Germany, a week before general elections, the strategically timed Reichstag fire (home of the German parliament) was blamed on communists. President Paul von Hindenburg's emergency decree followed. Civil liberties were suspended. Weimar Republic democracy ended, and Hitler assumed fascist powers after enough Nazis were elected to assure it. 

-- On August 31, 1939, Nazis impersonating Polish terrorists attacked the Gleiwitz radio station on the border between the two countries, starting WW II. 

-- On December 7, 1941, Roosevelt manipulated Japan to attack Pearl Harbor, giving him the war he wanted from the early 1930s, but had to convince a pacifist public of the threat. The fleet was also tracked across the Pacific, but Admiral HE Kimmel wasn't warned or given known intelligence to assure enough mass casualties for congressional and public support. 

-- Complicit with Washington, numerous 1949/1950 South Korean incursions north precipitated Pyongyang's retaliation in June 1950, giving Truman the war he wanted. 

-- In 1962, a US Joint Chiefs of Staff proposed false flag never happened because Kennedy rejected it. Called Operation Northwoods (a part of Operation Mongoose), it included sinking US ships, shooting down US commercial airliners, blowing up buildings in US cities, attacking America's Guantanamo base, other incidents, and blaming it on Cuba as a reason for war. 

-- The fake August 1964 Gulf of Tonkin incident initiated full-scale retaliation against North Vietnam after Congress passed the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution, authorizing war without declaring it. 

-- In October 1983, after ousting Prime Minister Maurice Bishop, US forces invaded Grenada, allegedly to rescue American medical students threatened by nonbelligerent Cubans building infrastructure. 

-- In December 1989, manufactured incidents precipitated America's Panama invasion, deposing Manuel Noriega, one-time ally turned enemy because he forgot who's boss. 

-- in August 1990, Washington colluded with the al- Sabah monarchy, entrapping Saddam Hussein to invade Kuwait. In January 1991, it launched the Gulf War, followed by over two decades of sanctions, more war occupation, and destruction of the "cradle of civilization." 

-- The September 11, 2001 false flag operation launched a decade of imperial wars against Afghanistan, Iraq, Pakistan, Libya, Palestine allied with Israel, perhaps others to come, as well as proxy wars in Somalia, Yemen, Bahrain, Central Africa, Haiti, Honduras, Colombia, and at home against Muslims, Latino immigrants, and working Americas. 

On February 16, 2010, a Washington's blog web site (georgewashington2.blogspot.com) article titled, "Governments ADMIT That They Carry Out False Flag Terror" listed examples, including: 

-- The CIA admitted its 1950s role in toppling Iran's democratically government in 1953. 

-- Israel acknowledged a 1954 attack in Egypt, including planting bombs in US diplomatic facilities, leaving "evidence" of Arab involvement. 

-- Indonesia's former president, Abdurrahman Wahid, said the nation's police or military most likely were involved in the 2002 Bali bombing, killing over 200 people. 

-- A former Italian prime minister, judge, and military counterintelligence head, General Gianadelio Maletti, said America's CIA instigated and abetted right wing terrorist groups in the 1970s and earlier, including bombing a Milan bank in 1969 to rally popular anti-communist support in Italy and other European countries. 
-- Many others, including former Carter administration National Security Adviser, Zbigniew Brzezinski, telling a Senate committee that a false flag terror attack on US soil might occur to blame Iran and justify war. 

In his 1997 book, "The Grand Chessboard: American Primacy and its Geostrategic Imperatives," he said: 

"Moreover, as America becomes an increasingly multicultural society, it may find it more difficult to fashion a consensus on foreign policy issues, except in the circumstance of a truly massive and widely perceived direct external threat," the kind 9/11 created - predicted, planned, orchestrated, and carried out to further new world order global dominance. 

Other False Flag Examples 

-- The March 2004 Madrid train bombings occurred three days before Spain's general elections. With no supportive evidence, they were blamed on Al Qaeda, yet they stoked public fear of threats against other Western cities, including American ones. 

 
-- The July 7, 2005 London underground bombings (called 7/7) were a series of attacks on the city's public transport system during the morning rush hour for maximum disruption and casualties. At precisely the same time, an anti-terror drill occurred, simulating real attacks. It was no coincidence, others in America and Britain came on the same day. 

-- On 9/11 morning, the CIA ran a "pre-planned simulation to explore the emergency response issues that would be created if a plane were to strike a building." Held at the Agency's Chantilly, Virginia Reconnaissance Office, AP reported (on August 22, 2002) that it simulated "a small corporate jet (hitting) one of the four towers....after experiencing a mechanical failure." 

Unmentioned at the time was a later revealed (but unreported) Homeland Security conference announcement a year later to commemorate the 9/11 event. Held under the auspices of the National Law Enforcement and Security Institute, one of its speakers was John Fulton, CIA Chief of the Strategic War Gaming Division of the National Reconnaissance office in charge of the operation. Another coincidence, or was something more sinister afoot? 

In October 2000, the Pentagon simulated a commercial plane striking the Pentagon, coordinated by its Command Emergency Response Team and the Defense Protective Services Police. This and the 9/11 exercises are more than coincidental, given what's now known and the fallout. 

-- On June 30, 2007, a Jeep Cherokee with propane canisters crashed into Glasgow International Airport's glass doors, the BBC reporting that it "was in the middle of the doorway burning....The car didn't actually explode. There were a few pops and bangs which presumably was the petrol." 

The usual suspects were falsely blamed, Al Qaeda and Islamic terrorists. 

In Miami, on January 11, 2010 (one day before Haiti's earthquake), the Pentagon's US Southern Command (SOUTHCOM) simulated a hurricane striking the island in preparation for subsequent measures to be implemented. A carefully prepared military operation, they included occupying, controlling, and plundering the island. 

Also, Deputy SOUTHCOM head, General PK Keen, was in Haiti when the quake struck, ready to assume command when it did and use a communication tool called the Transnational Information Sharing Cooperation project (TISC), linking other nations and NGOs with the Pentagon and US government to facilitate measures to be implemented. None were to help Haitians. 

A Final Comment 

Exposed as bad theater, New York Times writer Elizabeth Harris further discredited the broadsheet, headlining: 

"Al Qaeda Confirms Bin Laden's Death," citing an unconfirmed statement, warning of new attacks to come. It also said an audio recording days before his death will soon be released. In fact, past video and audio ones were exposed as fakes.
