Martial Law in Boston Did Not Catch the Suspect

"Look at these chilling photos of a major American city under total martial law. The local police force and investigative units have switched over to military assault vehicles on the streets, robo-cop science-fiction soldiers plugged in to all manner of spooky devices looking like the Borg and screaming orders like 'if you want to live, turn off your cell phones.' Let us never forget that Dzhokar Tsarnaev was discovered by a private citizen, who happened to go out and check on his boat (i.e. violating the lockdown order of the cops), see a body inside of it, and call the cops. In other words, the police state achieved nothing but the psychological conditioning of the population." Continue reading

U.S. and Russia to bolster ties after Boston bombings

"Russia and the United States agreed Saturday to step up cooperation in their fight against terror in the wake of news that two ethnic Chechens were suspected of organising the deadly Boston Marathon bombings. The Kremlin said Russian leader Vladimir Putin called US President Barack Obama to once again express his condolences and discuss ways the two sides can work more closely on security in the runup to the 2014 Winter Olympic Games in Sochi. 'I think that contacts will be conducted between our intelligence services,' Putin’s spokesman Dmitry Peskov said in separate televised remarks." Continue reading

Chechnya Isn’t Czechoslovakia

"All day I was wondering what the heck the deal was and at about 11 pm I figured it out. On Facebook, I found this – a link to a list if tweets that in some way confused Czechoslovakia and Chechnya. Traffic was spiking so heavily because people were confusing the ethnically Chechen Boston bombing suspects with the no longer existent country of Czechoslovakia. I would like to reaffirm the important statement that there has been no such place as Czechoslovakia for over two decades. Maybe we need to better challenge a few trends in our society if we are calling authoritatively for the bombing of countries that don’t even exist." Continue reading

Chechens?

"From Monday when I first heard of the bombs I was certain that 'the terrorists' would turn out to be with the Provisional wing of the IRA (being Boston and such), with their cell headed by a burly red-head named Paddy O'Furniture. But Chechens are just as befuddling and obscure to the masses and will provide the evil Muslim angle to dangle before the blood-thirsty wolves and the complaisant sheep that still pay attention to the regime's mainstream media disinformation brigade. We are truly living out the script for V for Vendetta, complete with constant false-flag terrorist incidents and militarized police thugs, all geared to enhance fear and government repression."

SWAT Army Occupies Boston

"What is particularly relevant here, and chilling from my point of view, is an observation Jeff Snyder makes in his powerful book, 'Nation of Cowards.' Snyder talks about the change that takes place, that must take place, in the psyche of a person who is protected by others as a matter of routine. He accepts that protection in exchange for some portion of his own sense of personal responsibility. As a result, he can often be more easily controlled by those protectors. We're well on our way."

"Obummer hasn't let the fact that Congress stymied his evisceration of the Second Amendment to daunt him. 'Even without Congress,' this shameless dictator confessed [emphasis added], 'my administration will keep doing everything it can to protect more of our communities.' 'The Health and Human Services Department on Friday was beginning to ask for public comment on how the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, passed by Congress in 1996 and known as HIPAA, is preventing some states from reporting to the background check system and how to address the problem.' Obummer has vowed to 'fix' that 'problem.'" Continue reading

Military Judge Took 4 Days To Determine Torture Is Legal

"Here is a gem on page 38 from Lt Col Diane Beaver, Staff judge Advocate for the man in charge of interrogation at Guantanamo: 'Concerning the use of techniques that technically were considered torture by the UCMJ that she approved.
