Ron Paul Not Suspending Campaign, It is a Media Hoax
Memo outlines strategy for influencing party platform at RNC

Invalid Link Removed
As the mainstream media continues to idiotically blather on about Ron Paul “quitting”, the campaign is forging ahead, today Invalid Link Removed outlining Paul’s strategy for the GOP national convention.
“Let me be very clear,” writes chief strategist Jesse Benton in the opening lines of the memo, “Dr. Paul is NOT dropping out or suspending his campaign.”
“As Dr. Paul has previously stated, he is in this race all the way to the Republican National Convention in Tampa this August,” Benton adds, noting that the campaign will look to maximize the resources it has, thus it will not fruitlessly pour money into the remaining primary states.
“We will continue to run strong programs at district and state [party] conventions to win more delegates and alternate delegates to the national convention.” Benton continues, noting that the campaign will enter a “new phase” on Friday at the Minnesota state GOP convention, where Paul will make an appearance.
While Benton acknowledges that “barring something very unforeseen”, former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney will now secure enough delegates to win the nomination, he asks Paul supporters to stay positive and help the Congressman secure a legacy for the future of the liberty movement.
“We are in an excellent position to make sure the Republican Party adds solid liberty issues to the GOP platform, which our delegates will be directly positioned to approve.” Benton states.
“Our delegates can still make a major impact at the national convention and beyond.” Including, he adds, using their influence “to shape the process for future liberty candidates.”
“By sending a large, respectful, and professional delegation to Tampa, we will show the Party and the country that not only is our movement growing and here to stay, but that the future belongs to us,” Benton notes, perhaps tacitly asking supporters to rise above the Invalid Link Removed that Romney supporters and GOP insiders have attempted to pull at state conventions.
In comments to reporters, Benton elaborated on the calls for decorum, noting “We our doing everything in our power to work with out supporters to make sure decorum and respect are the name of the game.” Benton added that he was well aware that “our supporters are going to get an excessive amount of blame for problems that arise at heated conventions.”
Senior Paul advisor Doug Wead also Invalid Link Removed, noting “Shouting people down is not Ron Paul’s way. Winning a battle of ideals based on principles, in a respectful way, is how he approaches the contest and it is how he wants others to approach the contest as well.”
The strategy memo outlines three key areas where the Paul campaign will seek to influence policy at the national convention; monetary policy reform, prohibitions on indefinite detention and internet freedom.
Benton also Invalid Link Removed that the campaign has been discussing the party platform with Mitt Romney’s team.
“I’d like to thank them for the respect that they’ve showed us,” Benton said. When asked if Ron Paul would endorse Romney, Benton said “I do not believe that is likely”. When asked if Paul would work with Libertarian nominee Gary Johnson, Benton said “No, there’s no chance of that.”
“Some will say that it is a lost cause,” Doug Wead said in his written statement today, referring to Paul’s ongoing campaign for liberty. “I will not concede but it does remind me of Clarence Darrow’s famous line, “Lost causes are the only ones worth fighting for” he concluded.
“Our people have been punched, yelled at, lied to and worked until they can hardly stand.” Wead added. “But on they come, fighting for their children, fighting for their future, angry at the corruption of the banks, of Wall Street, of the lobbyists, of the Congress, of the White House. The battle for liberty is not over. It has just taken on a new phase. It cannot be stopped by the national media. If that were the case it would never have been born in the first place.”

He is not funding the campaign anymore for those states...he cannot budget it and will not go into irresponsible debt. Its impossible to finance into it.
The grassroots movement will put work into those future states to try to continue the campaign, but in no way has Ron Paul suspended his campaign.

Obama: Head Over Heels for Jamie Dimon and JP Morgan Chase
Kurt Nimmo
May 16, 2012
Now that Obama’s Invalid Link Removed show that he has a “JPMorgan Chase Private Client Asset Management” checking account with a million bucks in it, maybe a few of the star-struck lefties will look for a fearless leader who isn’t connected to Wall Street.
I said maybe.
Invalid Link Removed
Jamie Dimon, JP Morgan Chase CEO, CFR and Trilateral Commission member, New York Federal Reserve director and all around smart guy, according to Obama.
Obama is not shy when it comes to Invalid Link Removed. He went on “The View” and praised JP Morgan Chase boss Jamie Dimon. He said Dimon is “one of the smartest bankers we got,” despite the mega-bank losing $2 billion in speculative derivatives trades and leading the charge in the destruction of the economy.
Dimon is part of the global elite Obama sucks up to. He is a Invalid Link Removed member, a Invalid Link Removed member and at the top (Class A) of the Invalid Link Removed. He is considered the “golden boy” of Wall Street. It hardly came as a surprise when it was announced that he was being groomed to be the next Invalid Link Removed.
Obama praises JP Morgan and Jamie Dimon on The View.
Of course, Dimon doesn’t really need to be boss at the Treasury. He controls the current secretary, Invalid Link Removed, who is no slouch when it comes to the globalist agenda – he was president of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, worked for Kissinger and Associates, and was a senior fellow at the CFR. His father ran “microfinance” schemes for the Invalid Link Removed.
JP Morgan is a key player in the destruction of the U.S. economy. It is the largest derivatives dealer in the world. According to Invalid Link Removed, JP Morgan Chase, Bank of America, Goldman Sachs, Citigroup, and Morgan Stanley together hold 80% of the country’s derivatives risk, and 96% of the exposure to credit derivatives. JP Morgan invented Invalid Link Removed, the bankster sledgehammer taking down the U.S. economy. It was instrumental in the subprime lending fiasco that is now decimating the living standards of millions of Americans.
Obama can get away with showering praise on Dimon and JP Morgan because most Americans are ignoramuses when it comes to economics and politics, thanks to public mis-education at government-run schools and the establishment’s corporate media.
He will go into the election season espousing stale and transparent anti-Wall Street rhetoric that works like a charm on far too many Democrats and “progressives” who are so brainwashed by the false right-left paradigm that they actually believe Obama will save them from the Invalid Link Removed of Romney and the Republicans.

Note from Senior Management:
Andrew Breitbart was never a "Birther," and Breitbart News is a site that has never advocated the narrative of "Birtherism." In fact, Andrew believed, as we do, that President Barack Obama was born in Honolulu, Hawaii, on August 4, 1961.
Yet Andrew also believed that the complicit mainstream media had refused to examine President Obama's ideological past, or the carefully crafted persona he and his advisers had constructed for him.
It is for that reason that we launched "The Vetting," an ongoing series in which we explore the ideological background of President Obama (and other presidential candidates)--not to re-litigate 2008, but because ideas and actions have consequences.
It is also in that spirit that we discovered, and now present, the booklet described below--one that includes a marketing pitch for a forthcoming book by a then-young, otherwise unknown former president of the Harvard Law Review.
It is evidence--not of the President's foreign origin, but that Barack Obama's public persona has perhaps been presented differently at different times.
***
Breitbart News has obtained a promotional booklet produced in 1991 by Barack Obama's then-literary agency, Acton & Dystel, which touts Obama as "born in Kenya and raised in Indonesia and Hawaii."
The booklet, which was distributed to "business colleagues" in the publishing industry, includes a brief biography of Obama among the biographies of eighty-nine other authors represented by Acton & Dystel.
It also promotes Obama's anticipated first book, Journeys in Black and White--which Invalid Link Removed, later publishing Dreams from My Father instead.
Obama’s biography in the booklet is as follows (image and text below):

According to the booklet itself, the text was edited by Miriam Goderich, who has since become Dystel's partner at Invalid Link Removed, an agency founded in 1994. Breitbart News attempted to reach Goderich by telephone several times over several days. Her calls are screened by an automated service that requires callers to state their name and company, which we did. She never answered.
The design of the booklet was undertaken by Richard Bellsey, who has since closed his business. Bellsey, reached by telephone, could not recall the exact details of the booklet, but told Breitbart News that it "sounds like one of our jobs, like I did for [Acton & Dystel] twenty years ago or more."
Invalid Link Removed
The parade of authors alongside Obama in the booklet includes politicians, such as former Speaker of the House Tip O’Neill; sports legends, such as Joe Montana and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar; and numerous Hollywood celebrities.
The reverse side of the page that features Barack Obama includes former Green Party presidential candidate Ralph Nader and early-1990s "boy band" pop sensation New Kids On the Block.

Acton, who spoke to Breitbart News by telephone, confirmed precise details of the booklet and said that it cost the agency tens of thousands of dollars to produce.
He indicated that while "almost nobody" wrote his or her own biography, the non-athletes in the booklet, whom "the agents deal[t] with on a daily basis," were "probably" approached to approve the text as presented.
Dystel did not respond to numerous requests for comment, via email and telephone. Her assistant told Breitbart News that Dystel "does not answer questions about Obama."
The errant Obama biography in the Acton & Dystel booklet does not contradict the authenticity of Obama's birth certificate. Moreover, several Invalid Link Removed of Obama’s background describe Obama as having been Invalid Link Removed.
The biography does, however, fit a pattern in which Obama--or the people representing and supporting him--manipulate his public persona.
David Maraniss's forthcoming biography of Obama has reportedly Invalid Link Removed, for example, that a girlfriend Obama described in Dreams from My Father was, in fact, an amalgam of several separate individuals.
In addition, Obama and his handlers have a history of redefining his identity when expedient. In March 2008, for example, he famously Invalid Link Removed: "I can no more disown [Jeremiah Wright] than I can disown the black community. I can no more disown him than I can my white grandmother."
Several weeks later, Obama Invalid Link Removed Wright's church--and, according to Edward Klein's new biography, Invalid Link Removed, allegedly attempted to persuade Wright not to "do any more public speaking until after the November [2008] election" (51).
Obama has been known frequently to fictionalize aspects of his own life. During his 2008 campaign, for instance, Obama claimed that his dying mother had fought with insurance companies over coverage for her cancer treatments.
That turned out to be untrue, but Obama has Invalid Link Removed the story--which even the Washington Post called "misleading"--in a campaign video for the 2012 election.
The Acton & Dystel biography could also reflect how Obama was seen by his associates, or transitions in his own identity. He is said, for instance, to have cultivated an "Invalid Link Removed" identity until well into his adulthood, according to Maraniss.
Regardless of the reason for Obama's odd biography, the Acton & Dystel booklet raises new questions as part of ongoing efforts to understand Barack Obama--who, despite four years in office remains a mystery to many Americans, thanks to the mainstream media.

The booklet, which is thirty-six pages long, is printed in blue ink (and, on the cover, silver/grey ink), using offset lithography. It purports to celebrate the fifteenth anniversary of Acton & Dystel, which was founded in 1976.

Jay Acton no longer represents Obama. However, Jane Dystel still Invalid Link Removed Obama as a client on her agency's website.According to the booklet itself, the text was edited by Miriam Goderich, who has since become Dystel's partner at Invalid Link Removed, an agency founded in 1994. Breitbart News attempted to reach Goderich by telephone several times over several days. Her calls are screened by an automated service that requires callers to state their name and company, which we did. She never answered.
The design of the booklet was undertaken by Richard Bellsey, who has since closed his business. Bellsey, reached by telephone, could not recall the exact details of the booklet, but told Breitbart News that it "sounds like one of our jobs, like I did for [Acton & Dystel] twenty years ago or more."

The parade of authors alongside Obama in the booklet includes politicians, such as former Speaker of the House Tip O’Neill; sports legends, such as Joe Montana and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar; and numerous Hollywood celebrities.
The reverse side of the page that features Barack Obama includes former Green Party presidential candidate Ralph Nader and early-1990s "boy band" pop sensation New Kids On the Block.

Acton, who spoke to Breitbart News by telephone, confirmed precise details of the booklet and said that it cost the agency tens of thousands of dollars to produce.
He indicated that while "almost nobody" wrote his or her own biography, the non-athletes in the booklet, whom "the agents deal[t] with on a daily basis," were "probably" approached to approve the text as presented.
Dystel did not respond to numerous requests for comment, via email and telephone. Her assistant told Breitbart News that Dystel "does not answer questions about Obama."
The errant Obama biography in the Acton & Dystel booklet does not contradict the authenticity of Obama's birth certificate. Moreover, several Invalid Link Removed of Obama’s background describe Obama as having been Invalid Link Removed.
The biography does, however, fit a pattern in which Obama--or the people representing and supporting him--manipulate his public persona.
David Maraniss's forthcoming biography of Obama has reportedly Invalid Link Removed, for example, that a girlfriend Obama described in Dreams from My Father was, in fact, an amalgam of several separate individuals.
In addition, Obama and his handlers have a history of redefining his identity when expedient. In March 2008, for example, he famously Invalid Link Removed: "I can no more disown [Jeremiah Wright] than I can disown the black community. I can no more disown him than I can my white grandmother."
Several weeks later, Obama Invalid Link Removed Wright's church--and, according to Edward Klein's new biography, Invalid Link Removed, allegedly attempted to persuade Wright not to "do any more public speaking until after the November [2008] election" (51).
Obama has been known frequently to fictionalize aspects of his own life. During his 2008 campaign, for instance, Obama claimed that his dying mother had fought with insurance companies over coverage for her cancer treatments.
That turned out to be untrue, but Obama has Invalid Link Removed the story--which even the Washington Post called "misleading"--in a campaign video for the 2012 election.
The Acton & Dystel biography could also reflect how Obama was seen by his associates, or transitions in his own identity. He is said, for instance, to have cultivated an "Invalid Link Removed" identity until well into his adulthood, according to Maraniss.
Regardless of the reason for Obama's odd biography, the Acton & Dystel booklet raises new questions as part of ongoing efforts to understand Barack Obama--who, despite four years in office remains a mystery to many Americans, thanks to the mainstream media.

Kenyan-born US Senate hopeful, Barrack Obama (sic), appeared set to take over the Illinois Senate seat after his main *****, Jack Ryan, dropped out of the race on Friday night amid a furor over lurid sex club allegations.
Charlton writes:
This report explains the context of the oft cited debate, between Obama and [Alan] Keyes in the following Fall, in which Keyes faulted Obama for not being a “natural born citizen”, and in which Obama, by his quick retort, “So what? I am running for Illinois Senator, not the presidency”, self-admitted that he was not eligible for the office. Seeing that an AP reporter is too professional to submit a story which was not based on confirmed sources (ostensibly the Obama campaign in this case), the inference seems inescapable:
Obama himself was putting out in 2004, that he was born in Kenya.
Obama conceded in October of 2004 during a debate with Alan Keyes that he is not a natural born citizen. C-Span aired an uncut version of the debate in April of 2005.Obama himself was putting out in 2004, that he was born in Kenya.

Subject to the provisions of this section, a person born after the commencement of this Act shall be a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies by descent if his father is a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies at the time of the birth.

Doha Bank Chief Confirms New World Order Is Being Built at the Highest Levels
Doha Bank (Q.S.C) : The Crisis is an Opportunity to attain the UN’s Millennium Development Goals … The United Nations General Assembly’s “High-Level Thematic Debate on the State of the World Economy” was held at ECOSOC Chamber, North Lawn Building, United Nations, New York between 17- 18th May 2012. Mr. R. Seetharaman, Doha Bank Group CEO participated in the Roundtable 4 Session “Increasing stability, predictability and transparency in the financial sector on 18th May 2012. – 4-traders.com (5/20/12)
A.M. Freyed
5/23/2012
You believe in the “new world order?” You’re a paranoid nutball, right? Well, here’s a revealing report showing the global regulatory solutions to the four-year old financial crisis and the realization of a UN-based “new world order” are intimately linked.
This is not some crazy “conspiracy theory.” This is the analysis of Mr. R. Seetharaman, CEO of Qatar’s largest, private commercial bank incorporated in 1979.
It’s hot off the presses as of May 20th, published by 4-traders.com and posted at the Doha Bank media center. One can pooh-pooh Mr. Seetharaman’s position based on the idea that Qatar is one of those funny, little Middle Eastern countries. But as we have pointed out previously, the powers-that-be are engaged in a full-on Westernization process of Islam using the smallest Middle Eastern countries as a kind of monetary wedge.
With the backing of media-giant Bloomberg, Qatar has been picked to provide the QIBOR (a replacement for the staggering LIBOR) providing a daily reference point for banks borrowing unsecured funds from other banks. Total amount of funds affected? Up to US$90 trillion.
Qatar is a “player.” So, likely, is Seetharaman. Here’s a little more:
Mr. Seetharaman highlighted the regulatory reforms in response to the crisis. He said “In response to the crisis the Global regulatory reforms had been actively reviewed under the leadership of G20 countries in co-ordination with financial stability Board (FSB), International Monetary Fund (IMF) and Bank for International settlements (BIS). The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act in US implemented the regulatory reforms in response to the crisis.
The Volcker’s Rule was enacted under this regulation to restrict proprietary trading. The SEC also proposed tougher disclosure rules for Hedge fund and private equity firms. FSB, IMF and BIS are working on macro-prudential policy frameworks, including tools to mitigate the impact of excessive capital flows. Policy framework for systemically important financial institutions, regulation and oversight of shadow banking, risk practices on structured products were some of the areas which required review in the light of current crisis. Basel 3 is also planned to be implemented.”
Here’s a brief bio of Seetharaman from his own webpage:
“Mr. R. Seetharaman is the Chief Executive Officer of Doha Bank Group. Mr. Seetharaman has nearly three decades of experience in banking, information technology and consultancy. He has a distinguished academic background – he is a Chartered Accountant and holds certificates in IT Systems and Corporate Management, whilst being a gold medalist in his graduation Bachelor of Commerce from the University of Madras in the year 1979. His specialization includes Managerial Economics.”
What are the UN’s Millennium Development goals? According to Wikipedia (as footnoted via a UN background page), there are eight of them agreed to by “all 193 United Nations member states and at least 23 international organizations” … to be realized by the year 2015. Goals are:
•eradicating extreme poverty and hunger,
•achieving universal primary education,
•promoting gender equality and empowering women
•reducing child mortality rates,
•improving maternal health,
•combating HIV/AIDS, malaria, and other diseases,
•ensuring environmental sustainability, and
•developing a global partnership for development.
Sounds good? Not so fast. The UN is surely a weapon of the super-elite that wants to run the world. “Environmental sustainability” (the 7th goal) is a Trojan Horse for full-fledged eco-fascism and “green control” of every part of one’s life and livelihood.
Mr. Seetharaman is seemingly enthusiastic about all this, however. The article expands on his viewpoints, which must certainly be shared by others at his level. Here’s some more:
Mr. Seetharaman correlated the UN millennium development goals with regulatory reforms and economic development. He said “The current realignment of global architecture will support the achievement of one of the 8 UN Millennium development goals “to develop a global partnership for development” which aims to develop further an open, rule-based, predictable, non-discriminatory trading and financial system. Economies need to integrate the principles of sustainable development into their policies and programs and reverse loss of environmental resources.
This will also enable such economies to achieve the UN Millennium development goal of “Ensure environmental sustainability”. Qatar’s National Vision 2030 has also considered environment development as one of the pillars of its vision. Financial sector can also participate in this sustainable development by taking initiatives to “Manage Climate Change and Mitigate Global Warming.”
Thanks, Mr. Seetharaman for providing a glimpse as to how global regulatory reform is being tailored to support eco-fascism. The question is how.
The answer is … (of course) by force.
What Seetharaman is revealing is that the various regulatory facilities now being put into place are going to give top regulators the power to force the global network of too-big-to-fail banks to abide by UN policy.
The elites are apparently formalizing power via a worldwide regulatory menu that includes control of money itself (capital flows) control over proprietary trading (what one can invest in) and, generally, regulation that will compel participants in global markets to share their most personal and private investment data.
No secrets will be kept from a larger Eye.
People are not apt to follow global regulatory issues closely, but this article reveals to us how elaborately intertwined financial and political power have become at the very top of the elite conversation. Step by step, the “new world order” nears reality.

Black Op Down: Hollywood Jazzes Up Fake Osama Raid For The Children
Saman Mohammadi
Thursday, May 24, 2012
Do you worship President Obama as a war hero because you think he killed the symbol of evil?
Are political thrillers your favourite films?
If you said yes to all three questions, then get ready to be amazed and entertained. Hollywood is rolling up its sleeves to turn a juicy original screenplay from the White House into a highly dramatic and suspenseful thriller. The film will revolve around the last days of Osama Bin Laden and the night of the mythical raid on his compound in Pakistan by U.S. Navy SEALs.
The film will be war on terror propaganda on steroids. The magicians in Hollywood and their masters at the Pentagon are inventing reality for the big screen and transforming President Obama into a postmodern war hero. The mythology of the Osama Bin Laden raid will be given new life thanks to the aid of cinematic tricks. President Obama will be portrayed as an assertive, resolute, and courageous leader, everything he’s not in real life.
After watching the movie, people will go away thinking not that the raid never happened but even more brainwashed into buying the official story of Bin Laden’s death. Walking out of the theatre, Obama’s brain dead followers will say: “Wow, dude, Obama is such a bad ass, he’s like America’s greatest leader since George Washington. Seriously, dude. Washington didn’t kill Osama, okay, but Obama did. That puts Obama at the top, he should be the fifth, sixth, and seventh face on Mt. Rushmore.”
Glenn Greenwald says in his article, Invalid Link Removedthat the Pentagon, the White House, and the filmmakers are coordinating with each other in this monumental mythic and political project. No doubt, they will make the best propaganda product thus far in the farce that is the war on terror. Greenwald writes:
A film about the most hyped non-event in history, the so-called assassination of Osama Bin Laden, is exemplary of all that is good and bad with the Washington-Hollywood partnership, depending on your perspective.
Claims that President Obama has failed to persuade the world that Osama Bin Laden was alive in Pakistan in May 2011 and that he heroically ordered his assassination from inside the White House are being addressed not by giving evidence to the press and public, like real documentary footage of the raid, but with a movie.
It is obvious that the White House does not have any evidence to give to the press and the public of the raid because the entire “Obama killed Osama” drama is made up. In court, the Obama administration said that it cannot disclose information about the raid on Bin Laden’s compound in Pakistan because it was a “secret” operation. That’s like me telling my parents that I got straight A’s in school, but then add that the report card is a secret.
The details of the raid that have been given to specific filmmakers and journalists by the White House are completely fabricated. The White House’s case is garbage. It is a pile of ****, (excuse the language).
White House, CIA, and Pentagon officials love Hollywood so much because they love mixing fantasy with reality. The image conscious military and political leaders in the National Security-Propaganda State see nothing wrong in manipulating the global public mind and world history by pitching a movie to a Hollywood studio about something that never happened.
What was the conversation like in the White House huddle? I’m guessing it went something like this: “Mr. President. The message has not been sent that you ordered the raid that killed Bin Laden because you’re just not persuasive enough, so we’re going to reach out to our film contacts in Hollywood and tell them to make a convincing movie about your war heroics. We are confident that a motion picture will quell all the rumors and solidify your place in history as well as in the memory of the American people and humanity. We promise you that you will be shown in a very positive light, almost like a presidential super-hero, but without the cape, of course. It will be professionally made, very dramatic, very suspenseful. Audiences will be on the edge of their seats through the whole thing.”
What can we conclude from this big fiasco? That the Invalid Link Removed is running amok. It is inventing enemies, events, and history itself. It is playing with fire.
We have entered the territory of myth and there is no going back. This is a wilderness that we cannot get out of anytime soon. As we blindly march forward the tracks behind us are disappearing and there are no road signs to follow. Darkness surrounds us now. Who is our guide? What is our destination? Lucifer? Hell?
Or are we already in hell?
Where will the world end up twenty or fifty years from now?
If we don’t recover the facts of history and reconnect to reality, then we will be led by the criminal myth makers who are in absolute power to a very dark place.

“But there’s one type of leak of classified information that the White House not only approves of but itself routinely exploits: the type that glorifies the President for propagandistic ends. The transparency group Judicial Watch brought FOIA lawsuits against the administration seeking information regarding the Osama bin Laden raid, but the administration Invalid Link Removed that the operation is secret and thus not subject to disclosure (even as they were Invalid Link Removed about the raid to the press).
At the same time, Judicial Watch has Invalid Link Removed the White House seeking documents showing the administration’s collaboration with Hollywood filmmakers — The Hurt Locker director Kathryn Bigelow and screenwriter Mark Boal – who have been planning a big-budget, studio film from Sony recounting the raid that killed bin Laden, oh-so-coincidentally scheduled for release in October, 2012, just before the election (that’s clearly a coincidence because Democrats, unlike those Bush/Cheney monsters, do not exploit national security for political gain).

So let’s review the Obama administration’s rules: leaking classified information is a grave crime — espionage! — when done to blow the whistle on serious government corruption, deceit and illegality, and it merits decades in prison. But when it’s done to enable Hollywood to produce a propaganda film glorifying the great and “gutsy” Commander-in-Chief, then it is a noble and patriotic act.” – Glenn Greenwald, Invalid Link Removed May 23, 2012.

“When I put a mask on my face, it instantly changes the relationship between you and me. Whereas, only moments ago, there was you a three dimensional human being troubled by various difficulties and me a similar type of entity also with similar kinds of problems now there is you and it, a third thing, a new entity that has entered into the relationship. This third entity, more often than not, evokes some type of strange, otherworldly being: a monster or a demon or an evil spirit, or else, if it is a mask of another human being, tends to evoke a cliche, such as, say, Richard Nixon. In either case, the I that was me only moments before has temporarily one hopes disappeared into another realm entirely, namely, the world of ritual, dream, myth, superstition, stereotypes and even cliches. It is, in other words, a flatter world, simpler than ours, more iconic, two-dimensional rather than three dimensional, in which beings tend to exist as eternal icons.” – John David Ebert,Invalid Link Removed March 11, 2009.

Ax,
between the propaganda bill passed, without notice...and Facebook's IPO flop, ultimately now people realizing it is "too big to fail" and could ruin the economy.
Couple that with old media (radio, television, etc) going out and everything becoming streaming/internet based + Cass Sunstein and friends salivating at the thought of having a controlled social network, I don't think it will be long before big brother has its hands in Facebook.

If you dont think it will be long before big bro has his hands in facebook, your a little late my friend. Facebook is a front group for the CIA, and has been well invested and financed by big bro since its beginnings.

You have to look deeper into how big bro/sis operates. For example, Facebook has great interest by IAO (Information Awareness Office, but now uses other names since congress de-funded it in 2003) which was created by DARPA. Objective is TIA, Total Information Awareness and gathering as much data on everybody as possible. Facebook's terms of use and privacy policy opens the doors for big bro.
Facebook really blew up after funding by Accel Partners which links and brings us to In-Q-Tel (which also funds google) which is funded by the CIA to bring technology for data mining technologies.
Now, Im not saying the very creation of Facebook was from the government, but it was totally indirectly infiltrated and allowed to flourish with financial investments for big bro purposes.
I do love the Facebook founders statement to privacy, and how privacy was no longer a "social norm". (edit: not using that as evidence, just that I find humor in it)

UN Creates New, More Powerful Global Environmental Agency
Susanne Posel
May 27, 2012
In June of this year, at the Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro, the United Nations (UN) will push for the expansion of their new and improved Invalid Link Removed
Invalid Link Removed
The Invalid Link Removed (UNEP) will be promoted to “specialized agency” with a new title, Invalid Link Removed (UNEO).
The UNEO will prop up the Sustainable Development division of the UN. The same agency that disseminates Agenda 21 policies to governments will be centralized into a global agency with powerful international backing.
As the unscientific assertions of a global environmental crisis, vanishing biodiversity and over-population become more “urgent” to the UN; the insertion of international governance is being covertly added into the mix as the answer to solve all problems worldwide.
Through treaties, agreements and institutions, reformation of the UN within the UN has yielded quite a response.
Ban Ki-moon, UN Secretary General devised the global sustainability panel that includes more than 50 supporters of the creation of UNEO.
“One option is the possible transformation of UNEP into a specialized agency of the United Nations. A strengthened UNEP could enhance coherence between relevant multilateral environmental agreements, and better integrate its work with the activities of development institutions, especially the United Nations Development Program,” states one recommendation.
The UN is changing the status of the “program” to an “agency” to demand more funding for its initiatives; as well as receives more power and autonomy.
Although UNEO is slated to be funded entirely by voluntary donation, “assessed contributions” could be allocated to the agency on the basis of success and necessity.
Specialized agencies within the UN receive these “assessed contributions” by member states as derived from factors such as national income and gross domestic product.
The more the country can afford, the more the UN takes to fund their international directives.
One way of directing funds to the UN is through the usurpation of innovative technologies for the sake of “saving the planet”. There is a call for Invalid Link Removed of greenhouse safe products; however the allocation of funding toward research for finding a way to mitigate or even stop climate change effects seems to be left out.
The business of climate change is expected to be quite lucrative for those successful at convincing authoritative bodies that these technologies must be purchased by their nation and mandated for use by their citizens.
The UN will Invalid Link Removed, redistribute the world’s wealth and install programs that will place all issues concerning humanity, poverty, the securitization of resources and education under its control and command.
They will force ecological taxes to steer large amounts of money into funds designed to redesign humanity, civilization and the planet – and fit them all into their mold. A carbon cap-and-trade tax system for industrial countries could yield $250 billion per year.
They also want to take in investment monies to mandate new public policies, regulation and propose incentives “by fundamentally restructuring public spending and leveraging private investments towards environmental and social investments, indebted industrial countries can expect to find new growth paths that support fiscal consolidation while contributing to a green economy.”
The US contributed $22.9 million of American taxpayer money to the UN in 2010. That accounted for 9.8% of the agency’s total annual funding. US federal agencies that “voluntarily” gave to the UN are:
• The Department of the Interior
• Department of State
• The Environmental Protection Agency
• NASA
The creation of a global environmental agency is championed by the European Union, who has been calling for the upgrade of UNEP for quite some time.
IN 2007, Jacques Chirac called for the expansion of a “massive international action to face the environmental crisis”, referring to the yet realized UNEO. “We are coming to realize that the entire planet is at risk, that the well-being, health, safety, and very survival of humankind hangs in the balance. We call for the transformation of the UNEP into a genuine international organization to which all countries belong, along the lines of the World Health Organization.”
The ideal that Chirac lead over 5 years ago is now being resurfaced and supported by 46 countries in the European Union; as well as Africa, Latin America and Asia.
The US, Russia and China have declined to be part of the push for this monstrous agency that will wield enormous international power over the environment.
Chirac, a man-made climate change alarmist, backed the documentation of the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) when they made public a series of reports that claimed the global temperatures were exponentially rising and those drastic effects would continue for centuries.
Obama has followed suit with the UN and created his own environmental organization called the Invalid Link Removed (IRENA).
IRENA is run like a UN agency, with members’ contributions based on the same criteria as the UN funds their agencies. IRENA receives American taxpayer money which makes up 22% of its current annual budget.

Battle Brewing Over Labeling of Genetically Modified Food
Invalid Link Removed Ilana Panich-Linsman for The New York Times
Using her own stickers, Cynthia LaPier surreptitiously labels foods that she knows contain genetically modified organisms.
By Invalid Link Removed and Invalid Link Removed
Published: May 24, 2012 New York Times
GREAT BARRINGTON, Mass. — On a recent sunny morning at the Big Y grocery here, Cynthia LaPier parked her cart in the cereal aisle. With a glance over her shoulder and a quick check of the ingredients, she plastered several boxes with hand-designed stickers from a roll in her purse. “Warning,” they read. “May Contain GMO’s (Genetically Modified Organisms).”
For more than a decade, almost all processed foods in the United States — cereals, snack foods, salad dressings — have contained ingredients from plants whose DNA was manipulated in a laboratory. Regulators and many scientists Invalid Link Removed. But as Americans ask more pointed questions about what they are eating, popular suspicions about the health and environmental effects of biotechnology are fueling a movement to require that food from Invalid Link Removed be labeled, if not eliminated.
Labeling bills have been proposed in more than a dozen states over the last year, and an appeal to the Food and Drug Administration last fall to mandate labels nationally drew more than a million signatures. There is an Invalid Link Removed app: Invalid Link Removed.
The most closely watched labeling effort is a proposed ballot initiative in California that cleared a crucial hurdle this month, setting the stage for a probable November vote that could influence not just food packaging but the future of American agriculture.
Tens of millions of dollars are expected to be spent on the election showdown. It pits consumer groups and the Invalid Link Removed industry, both of which support mandatory labeling, against more conventional farmers, agricultural biotechnology companies like Monsanto and many of the nation’s best-known food brands like Kellogg’s and Kraft.
The heightened stakes have added fuel to a long-simmering debate over Invalid Link Removed, which many scientists and farmers believe could be useful in meeting the world’s rapidly expanding food needs.
Supporters of labeling argue that consumers have a right to know when food has been modified with genes from another species, which they say is fundamentally different from the selective breeding process used in nearly all crops.
Almost all the corn and soybeans grown in the United States now contain DNA derived from bacteria. The foreign gene makes the soybeans resistant to an herbicide used in weed control, and causes the corn to produce its own insecticide.
“It just makes me nervous when you take genetic matter from something else that wouldn’t have been done in nature and put it into food,” said Ms. LaPier, 44, a mental health counselor whose guerrilla labeling was inspired by the group Invalid Link Removed. She worries that her daughter, 5, could one day suffer ill effects like allergies.
The F.D.A. has said that labeling is generally not necessary because the genetic modification does not materially change the food.
Farmers, food and biotech companies and scientists say that labels might lead consumers to reject genetically modified food — and the technology that created it — without understanding its environmental and economic benefits. Invalid Link Removed noting that existing biotech crops have for years let farmers spray fewer or less harmful chemicals, though the emergence of resistant weeds and insects threatens to blunt that effect.
In a Invalid Link Removed circulating on social networks, one Iowa farmer, Tim Burrack, criticized this month’s O, the Oprah Magazine, which Invalid Link Removed linking genetic engineering to health concerns that many scientists have discredited and proposed “Invalid Link Removed.” Mr. Burrack urged Ms. Winfrey not to “demonize GM crops.”
But some food experts argue that food manufacturers have an obligation to label. Consumers “have a right to take genetic modification into consideration,” said Marion Nestle, a professor of nutrition, food studies and public health at New York University. “And if the companies think consumer objections are stupid and irrational, they should explain the benefits of their products.”
Until now, Americans have made little fuss about genetically modified crops on the market compared with Europeans, who require that such foods be labeled. Invalid Link Removed are threatening to destroy some Invalid Link Removed being grown in a research trial near London.
The current push for labeling in this country stems in part from a broadening of the genetically modified menu to include herbicide-resistant alfalfa and the possible approval this year of a Invalid Link Removed which would be the first genetically engineered animal in the food supply.
Gary Hirshberg, chairman of Invalid Link Removed the organic yogurt company, has raised more than $1 million for the Invalid Link Removed campaign to influence the F.D.A. after fighting approval of engineered alfalfa, arguing that cross-pollination would contaminate organic crops fed to cows.
“This is an issue of transparency, truth and trust in the food system,” Mr. Hirshberg said.
Biotechnology companies say that the Invalid Link Removed, while portrayed as promoting consumer choice, is really an effort by some consumer and environmental groups and organic food growers to drive genetically modified foods off the market.
“These folks are trying to use politics to do what they can’t accomplish at the supermarket, which is increase market share,” said Cathleen Enright, an executive vice president at the Invalid Link Removed, which represents Monsanto and DuPont.
Rather than label food with what consumers might regard as a skull and crossbones, the companies say food producers may ultimately switch to ingredients that are not genetically modified, as they did in Europe.
If the California initiative passes, “we will be on our way to getting GE-tainted foods out of our nation’s food supply for good,” Ronnie Cummins, director of the Invalid Link Removed, wrote in an letter in March seeking donations for the California ballot initiative. “If a company like Kellogg’s has to print a label stating that their famous Corn Flakes have been genetically engineered, it will be the kiss of death for their iconic brand in California — the eighth-largest economy in the world — and everywhere else.”
The Invalid Link Removed, which represents major food brands, declined to comment on what members would do if the California measure passed. But Rick Tolman, chief executive of the Invalid Link Removed, said after meeting with food executives this month that he had the “strong impression” that they would rather reformulate their ingredients than label their products genetically engineered. “They think a label will undermine their brand,” he said.
When asked if they wanted genetically engineered foods to be labeled, about 9 in 10 Americans said that they did, according to a 2010 Thomson Reuters-NPR Invalid Link Removed.
The current call for transparency has resonated among some Americans upset by reports of BPA (a chemical used in plastics) in food packaging and pink slime (an ammonia-treated additive) in meat. Ms. LaPier has made an effort to label Kashi cereals, which advertise themselves as natural, since learning they contain genetically modified soy. Since discovering the Label It Yourself Invalid Link Removed in March, she has added several of her own pictures to its gallery of handmade labels on grocery store shelves across the nation.
Depending on the jurisdiction, such labeling could constitute a trademark violation against the manufacturer or a trespass against the store. No one has been prosecuted, but also, no one has been caught, according to a spokesman for the group.
So far, the F.D.A. has said only that it is studying the labeling petition; none of the state-level labeling bills proposed over the last year have passed.
For labeling proponents, California, where the Legislature would be bypassed by a direct popular vote, is the big prize.
A decade ago in Oregon, a similar measure that appeared to have the support of two-thirds of voters was rejected after a last-minute spending blitz by labeling opponents. With the financial backing of the organic industry, labeling supporters in California say they will be better prepared.

During a heated conversation in the lobby of the Westfields Marriott hotel yesterday, Bilderberg members expressed their desire to see Ron Paul die in a plane crash, according to veteran journalist Jim Tucker’s inside source.
The close up shot was necessary to eliminate background noise. A full interview with Jim Tucker (Invalid Link Removed) will be posted later.
The shocking exchange took place just after Bilderberg attendees started arriving yesterday morning as they were driven through crowds of hundreds of Paul-supporting demonstrators.
Wasting no time to shoot their mouths off, one Bilderberg member expressed his desire to, “Get Ron Paul and all of his supporters on an airplane with a Muslim suicide pilot and take ‘em down,” according to Tucker’s source, which has been proven routinely accurate with Bilderberg information in the past.
“That was the harshest comment made but there were a lot of mean-spirited comments made as the Bilderberg boys gathered in the lobby of the hotel,” added Tucker.
Tucker explained that the Bilderbergers are becoming increasingly irate at the resistance amongst patriotic Americans to their program, with protest figures rising at each annual confab.
“The program planned by Bilderberg has been set back for years and every year it gets worse and every year they get more depressed and every year they get more outraged – we’re winning, they’re losing,” said Tucker.
“The program planned by Bilderberg has been set back for years and every year it gets worse and every year they get more depressed and every year they get more outraged – we’re winning, they’re losing,” said Tucker.
Bilderberg is furious that Paul is working to stop the full ratification of the Law of the Sea Treaty, which Invalid Link Removed is being discussed at this year’s conference. The treaty would hand the United Nations control over all U.S. oceans and force ships to pay a tariff directly to the global body.
This is not the first time Bilderberg members have expressed their desire to see the Texan Congressman and staunch constitutionalist meet his maker.
Back in December 2007, best-selling author and Bilderberg sleuth Invalid Link Removed that the U.S. intelligence establishment was considering assassinating Paul as a means of derailing the Ron Paul Revolution, which later gave rise to the Tea Party and spawned a generation of anti-big government grass roots activists.

Actually, to violate the act you quote there must be a negotiation with foreign diplomats. Can you prove that it is actually happening like that? Or, are you just taking liberties with the facts?
Proving exactly what goes on the meetings is very difficult, its top secret and a mystery. They have been going on since 1954. All I can to is open peoples awareness about them, and I do have to say Bilderberg group is just one of many groups than need more attention.
I cannot say it is in fact an illegal meeting, but Ill correct myself and say its potentially an illegal meeting and should (but it wont of course, lol) be investigated by authorities.
My main issue is the wide blackout of any mainstream forum, coverage, and dialogue of what goes on with these meetings. This isnt a surprise we all know who controls them. What the most important issues of course are gay marriage and which shoes Michelle Obama is wearing. Russian Television (RT) at least covering the meetings but thats a cable channel many people dont have or go to.

this is my point. We dont know what is going on, and to be honest, Alex Jones is probably not the best source. He is a great disinfo agent
I will agree, our media is ridiculous and what we consider top news (the new Mitt Romney tshirts) is insulting to anyone with any intelligence.
At the end of the day if there was some giant "cabal" that was making global decisions, our awareness of it is meaningless.
Also, to your earlier post about killing Ron Paul....if this cabal did exist, do you think for a second that a lowly Texas Congressman would survive if "they" didnt want him to?
ax1
Legend
I have different personal speculations about that...as you will see I dont exactly go along with everything I even post.
I can understand a scenario where they think they can do enough to keep him out of power without killing him is better than creating a martyr. I can see if he did threat or took power that they would get rid of him.
I can also see Ron Paul possibly playing good cop, bad cop and actually just going along with the whole thing. He needs to be closely scrutinized as all politicians cannot be trusted. His Masonic handshakes are a bit strange.

Eyewitnesses: Mitt Romney Attended Bilderberg 2012

Four separate hotel staff report seeing presidential candidate
Paul Joseph Watson
Wednesday, June 6, 2012
Four separate eyewitnesses inside the Westfields Marriott hotel in Chantilly Virginia told London Guardian writer Charlie Skelton that Mitt Romney was in attendance at Bilderberg 2012, suggesting the Republican candidate could be the elite’s pick for the upcoming U.S. presidential election.

“Four eyewitnesses on the hotel staff told me Willard Mitt Romney was here at Bilderberg 2012. My four eyewitnesses place him inside. That’s one more than Woodward and Bernstein used.

The London Guardian writer adds that the fact Romney’s name did not appear on the official list of attendees is meaningless. Numerous power brokers, including Bill Gates, were photographed arriving at the event yet were not included on the list of participants, as is routinely the case.

TIME Magazine pushes death agenda: Remove feeding tubes from the dying elderly (and get a cash bonus!)

Thursday, June 07, 2012
by Mike Adams, the Health Ranger
(NaturalNews) TIME Magazine is peddling a death agenda propaganda piece with a new issue that features these words on the cover: "HOW TO DIE."
Inside, the magazine promotes a cost-saving death agenda that encourages readers to literally "pull the feeding tubes" from their dying elderly parents, causing them to dehydrate and die. This is explained as a new cost-saving measure that drastically reduces return hospital visits by the elderly... yeah, because dead people don't return to the hospital, of course.

Kill Granny, get a cash bonus!
The article is part of the new soft-sell, hard-kill agenda of the mainstream media which also featured an article on Newsweek Magazine entitled, "The Case for Killing Granny." (Invalid Link Removed)
The cover of that magazine stated, "Curbing excessive end-of-life care is good for America."
Just as with TIME Magazine, Newsweek is pushing a death agenda that devalues the lives of elderly citizens and actually encourages citizens to have their own parents killed in order to reduce medical costs. In fact, as TIME Magazine says, organizations that embrace these "outcome-based" death panel systems actually receive cash bonuses when they save more money by pulling the plug on granny!
That's the answer to health care in America, you see. It's not about nutritional therapy, using trace minerals to prevent disease, avoiding GMOs and toxic chemicals. Nope, it's about pulling the plug and killing your elders and then convincing yourself that you are compassionate for making sure they die sooner rather than later.
It's trendy to kill your parents off, didn't you know? It's good for the economy! And it's good for society! Death to grandma! For God's sake don't give any water to your dying father, either, because it's better to just let him die from kidney failure. Yep, here's an actual quote from the TIME Magazine story: "Renal failure is a good way to go," the story says. Just dehydrate 'em to death and call it trendy.
When you get old, they'll kill you too
Be careful what you wish for, all you trendies, because sooner or later, you'll be old, too! And if you created a society in which pulling the plug is the socially-acceptable way to kill off all the "useless old people," then don't be surprised when they cut off your feeding tube, too, and you suffer a slow, painful death while your own children cheer about how socially responsible they are.

The Trouble with Rand Paul

Perhaps that’s Rand’s idea of playing politics? Come to the table, strike a deal, get what you can. Trouble is, it’s tough striking a good deal when the guy on the other side of the table believes that the government should be allowed to claim — without having to produce any evidence whatsoever — that certain people are terrorists, and therefore should be detained indefinitely without any kind of due process.
That’s textbook tyranny.

The NDAA is Romney’s most egregious transgression against liberty, but not far behind are his desire to start a war against Iran, Invalid Link Removed, Invalid Link Removed and Invalid Link Removed.
I know I will never agree with any politician on every single dimension of every single issue, and that to some extent politics will always involve compromise. Certainly, I disagree with Ron Paul on some issues. But Mitt Romney’s stances on these issues seem much, much, much closer to Barack Obama than they do to Ron Paul. In fact, he might as well have endorsed Obama for President.
And the Ron Paul supporters are noticing: Rand has probably burnt most bridges to his Father’s supporters now. His Invalid Link Removed has seen a huge outpouring of fury:
I have always been uncomfortable with the children of politicians becoming politicians. Every anointed child feels like a step away from meritocracy. Dynasties are dangerous, because the dynasty itself comes to be more important than the qualities of the politicians. Who would Rand Paul be if he wasn’t Ron Paul’s son? Just another neocon. Neocons often have a few “unfashionable” libertarian or constitutionalist sympathies; Invalid Link Removed. But — unlike Ron Paul — the neocon never has the spine to do much about their libertarian or constitutionalist sympathies. They just ride on the establishment steamroller, into foreign occupations, empire building, corporate welfare, and banking bailouts. Into Iraq, and soon into Iran.

Yes, I would have [signed the NDAA]. And I do believe that it is appropriate to have in our nation the capacity to detain people who are threats to this country, who are members of al Qaeda. Look, you have every right in this country to protest and to express your views on a wide range of issues but you don’t have a right to join a group that has killed Americans, and has declared war against America. That’s treason. In this country we have a right to take those people and put them in jail. If I were president I would not abuse this power. But people who join al Qaeda are not entitled to rights of due process under our normal legal code. They are entitled instead to be treated as enemy combatants.

Except, if the government had any evidence they were really members of al-Qaeda and engaged in a war against America they could be charged with offenses under current laws and tried in front of a jury of their peers. Invalid Link Removed when Judge Katherine Forrest struck down the indefinite detention provision of the NDAA as unconstitutional, the real detention targets are people like the ones who brought the case — writers, investigative journalist and whistleblowers: people like Chris Hedges, Noam Chomsky, Daniel Ellsberg, Jennifer Bolen, and Birgitta Jonsdottir.Mitt Romney

You suck Rand! Traitor!
That’s why this country is doomed! Even the person you trust is a sell-out. I’m done with politics, people deserve what they get. Let the country run itself to the ground, and still people will not understand what freedom and self-responsibility is about. People want big gov’t, big brother every step of the way. Well, they got it. The rest of us, might as well try to move to another country or find an island and move there.
I knew I’d never vote for Mitt… Now I know I’ll never vote for Rand.
He has fully sold out to the bankers
Endorsing Romney is tantamount to an utter sell-out of conservative principles.
Did George Washington, Thomas Jefferson and James Madison try to compromise with King George? Or — when it became obvious that they were facing tyranny — did they stand up for the principles of liberty?

Its true awareness without action is meaningless.
The problem is most people are unaware, so we cannot have effective action. These elite spend an unlimited amount of resources not only trying to control everyone awareness of it, but alter peoples thinking into thinking its a good thing (for example, climate change and setting global laws by global govermnent is the only thing that can save us)...you can see that clearly how every mainstream news network is run by them.
You can see it clearly how they are trying to destroy the press, free speech and internet freedoms. They are doing everything they can to make us unaware because they know there are potential consequences if enough people are aware.

The United Nations is considering a new Internet tax targeting the largest Web content providers, including Google, Facebook, Apple, and Netflix, that could cripple their ability to reach users in developing nations.
The European proposal, offered for debate at a December meeting of a U.N. agency called the International Telecommunication Union, would amend an existing telecommunications treaty by imposing heavy costs on popular Web sites and their network providers for the privilege of serving non-U.S. users, according to newly leaked documents.

CONFRONTING IRAN, "PROTECTING ISRAEL": The Real Reason for America's War on Syria
by Prof. Michel Chossudovsky
Invalid Link Removed, June 8, 2012
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is calling for an R2P humanitarian military intervention in Syria to curb the atrocities allegedly ordered by the government of president Bashar Al Assad. In a twisted logic, Clinton recognizes that while "opposition forces" are integrated by Al Qaeda affiliated terrorists, the government rather than the terrorists is held responsible, without a shred of evidence, for the ongoing massacre of civilians.
Amply documented, these sectarian killings and atrocities are being committed by foreign mercenaries and militia which are armed and supported by the Western military alliance.
The killings are carried out quite deliberately as part of a diabolical covert operation. The enemy is then blamed for the resulting atrocities. The objective is to justify a military agenda on humanitarian grounds.
In US military jargon, it's called a "massive casualty producing event", the historical origins of which go back to "Operation Northwoods", an infamous 1962 Pentagon Plan, consisting in killing civilians in the Miami Cuban community, with a view to justifying a war on Cuba. (See Michel Chossudovsky, Invalid Link Removed Global Research, May 30, 2012)
What lies behind this outburst of humanitarian concern by "the international community". Is America coming to the rescue of the Syrian people? What is the real reason for America's war on Syria?
This question is addressed in a lead article by James P. Rubin, a Bloomberg executive editor and former State department official under the Clinton administration. The article appears in this month's Foreign Policy Magazine under the clear-cut title: "Invalid Link Removed"
In an unusual twist, "the answer to the question", namely "the real reason" is provided in the article's subtitle: "Cutting Iran's link to the Mediterranean Sea is a strategic prize worth the risk.".
The subtitle should dispel --in the eyes of the reader-- the illusion that US foreign policy has an underlying "humanitarian mandate". Pentagon and US State department documents as well as independent reports confirm that military action against Syria has been contemplated by Washington and Tel Aviv for more than 20 years.
Targeting Iran, "Protecting Israel"
According to James P. Rubin, the war plans directed against Syria are intimately related to those pertaining to Iran. They are part of the same US-Israeli military agenda which consists in weakening Iran with a view to "protecting Israel". The latter objective is to be carried out through a pre-emptive attack against Iran: "We're not done with the possibility of an Israeli strike on Iran" says James P. Rubin.
According to Clifford D. May, president of the Foundation for Defense of Democracies ("a policy institute focusing on terrorism and Islamism"), the humaniitarian concern is not the primary objective but rather a means to and end: "If the Arab League is unmoved by the massacres of Syrian women and children (their angry eyes fixed as ever on Israel), and the Organization of Islamic Cooperation doesn’t give a fig about Muslims slaughtering Muslims, why should we Americans expend an ounce of energy? ... Because Syria, under the Assad dictatorship, is Iran’s most important ally and asset. And Iran is the single most important strategic threat facing the U.S. — hands down." (See Invalid Link Removed, May 30, 2012)
The military roadmap to Tehran goes through Damascus. The unspoken objective of the US-NATO-Israeli sponsored insurgency in Syria is to destabilize Syria as a Nation State and undermine Iran's influence in the region (including its support of the Palestinian Liberation movement and Hezbollah). The underlying objective is also to eliminate all forms of resistance to the Zionist State:
Rubin candidly outlines the contours of US military intervention in Syria, which is to be implemented in close liaison with Israel. A diplomatic solution will not work, nor will economic sanctions: "only the threat or use of force will change the Syrian dictator's stance" says Rubin:
This "first step" has already been launched. It was implemented at the very outset of the insurgency in March 2012. The US and its allies have been actively supporting the Free Syrian Army (FSA) terrorists for over a year. The organization and training consisted in the deployment of Salafist and Al Qaeda affiliated terrorists, alongside the incursion of French, British, Qatari and Turkish special forces inside Syria. US-NATO sponsored mercenaries are recruted and trained in Saudi Arabia and Qatar.
Sidetracking the UN
Rubin's proposed "second step" is "to secure international support for a coalition air operation." outside the mandate of the United Nations. "Russia will never support such a mission, so there is no point operating through the U.N. Security Council" says Rubin. The air operation contemplated by Rubin is an all out war scenario, similar to the NATO air raids conducted in Libya.
Rubin is not expressing a personal opinion on the role of theUN. The option of "sidetracking" the UN Security Council has already been endorsed by Washington. The violaiton of international law does not seem to be an issue. US Ambassador to the UN Susan Rice confirmed in late May, in no uncertain terms, that "the worst and most probable scenario" in Syria might be the option of "acting outside of the UN Security Council's authority".
The article calls for continued arming of the Syrian Free Army (FSA) as well carrying out air raids directed against Syria. No ground operations are to be envisaged. The air campaign would be used --as in the case of Libya-- to support the FSA foot soldiers integrated by mercenaries and Al Qaeda affiliated brigades:
"Coming to the rescue of the Syrian people" under a fake "humanitarian" R2P mandate is intended to destabilize Syria, weaken Iran and enable Israel to exert greater political control and influence over neighboring Arab states including Lebanon and Syria.
A war on Syria is also a war on Palestine. It would weaken the resistance movement in the occupied territories. It would reinforce the Netanyahu government's ambitions to create a "Greater Israel", initially, through the outright annexation of the Palestinian territories:

(See Michel Chossudovsky, Invalid Link Removed Global Research, May 30, 2012)
"Code named Operation Northwoods, the plans reportedly included the possible assassination of Cuban émigrés, sinking boats of Cuban refugees on the high seas, hijacking planes, blowing up a U.S. ship, and even orchestrating violent terrorism in U.S. cities.
The plans were developed as ways to trick the American public and the international community into supporting a war to oust Cuba's then new leader, communist Fidel Castro." (Invalid Link Removed emphasis added. This Secret Pentagon document was declassified and can be readily consulted, Invalid Link Removed, See also Invalid Link Removed, 30 April 2001)
In the logic of Operation Northwoods, the killings in Syria are carried out to "create a helpful wave of indignation", to drum up public opinion in favor of an R2P US-NATO operation against Syria. "The international community cannot sit idly by, and we won’t”, said US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

The underlying objective is also to eliminate all forms of resistance to the Zionist State:
"That is where Syria comes in, says James P, Rubin. It is the strategic relationship between the Islamic Republic and the Assad regime that makes it possible for Iran to undermine Israel's security. Over the three decades of hostility between Iran and Israel, a direct military confrontation has never occurred -- but through Hezbollah, which is sustained and trained by Iran via Syria, the Islamic Republic has proven able to threaten Israeli security interests.
The collapse of the Assad regime would sunder this dangerous alliance. Defense Minister Ehud Barak, arguably the most important Israeli decision-maker on this question, recently told CNN's Christiane Amanpour that the Assad regime's fall "will be a major blow to the radical axis, major blow to Iran.... It's the only kind of outpost of the Iranian influence in the Arab world ... and it will weaken dramatically both Hezbollah in Lebanon and Hamas and Islamic Jihad in Gaza."

Rubin candidly outlines the contours of US military intervention in Syria, which is to be implemented in close liaison with Israel. A diplomatic solution will not work, nor will economic sanctions: "only the threat or use of force will change the Syrian dictator's stance" says Rubin:
"U.S. President Barack Obama's administration has been understandably wary of engaging in an air operation in Syria similar to the campaign in Libya, for three main reasons. Unlike the Libyan opposition forces, the Syrian rebels are not unified and do not hold territory. The Arab League has not called for outside military intervention as it did in Libya. And the Russians, the longtime patron of the Assad regime, are staunchly opposed." (Ibid)
Washington's first step, according to James P. Rubin, should be to work with "its allies", the Arab sheikdoms --Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and Turkey-- "to organize, train, and arm Syrian rebel forces."
This "first step" has already been launched. It was implemented at the very outset of the insurgency in March 2012. The US and its allies have been actively supporting the Free Syrian Army (FSA) terrorists for over a year. The organization and training consisted in the deployment of Salafist and Al Qaeda affiliated terrorists, alongside the incursion of French, British, Qatari and Turkish special forces inside Syria. US-NATO sponsored mercenaries are recruted and trained in Saudi Arabia and Qatar.

Rubin's proposed "second step" is "to secure international support for a coalition air operation." outside the mandate of the United Nations. "Russia will never support such a mission, so there is no point operating through the U.N. Security Council" says Rubin. The air operation contemplated by Rubin is an all out war scenario, similar to the NATO air raids conducted in Libya.
Rubin is not expressing a personal opinion on the role of theUN. The option of "sidetracking" the UN Security Council has already been endorsed by Washington. The violaiton of international law does not seem to be an issue. US Ambassador to the UN Susan Rice confirmed in late May, in no uncertain terms, that "the worst and most probable scenario" in Syria might be the option of "acting outside of the UN Security Council's authority".
"In the absence of either of those two scenarios, there seems to me to be only one other alternative, and that is indeed the worst case, which seems unfortunately at the present to be the most probable. And that is that the violence escalates, the conflict spreads and intensifies, it reaches a higher degree of severity... The Council's unity is exploded, the Annan plan is dead and members of this Council and members of the international community are left with the option only of having to consider whether they're prepared to take actions outside of the Annan plan and the authority of this Council." Invalid Link Removed, May 31, 2012
Rubin also points to "the reluctance of some European states" to participate in an air operation against Syria: "this [military] operation will have to be a unique combination of Western and Middle East countries. Given Syria's extreme isolation within the Arab League, it should be possible to gain strong support from most Arab countries, led by Saudi Arabia and Turkey. U.S. leadership is indispensable, since most of the key countries will follow only if Washington leads."
The article calls for continued arming of the Syrian Free Army (FSA) as well carrying out air raids directed against Syria. No ground operations are to be envisaged. The air campaign would be used --as in the case of Libya-- to support the FSA foot soldiers integrated by mercenaries and Al Qaeda affiliated brigades:
"Whether an air operation should just create a no-fly zone that grounds the regimes' aircraft and helicopters or actually conduct air to ground attacks on Syrian tanks and artillery should be the subject of immediate military planning. ...
The larger point is that as long as Washington stays firm that no U.S. ground troops will be deployed, à la Kosovo and Libya, the cost to the United States will be limited. Victory may not come quickly or easily, but it will come. And the payoff will be substantial. Iran would be strategically isolated, unable to exert its influence in the Middle East. The resulting regime in Syria will likely regard the United States as more friend than enemy. Washington would gain substantial recognition as fighting for the people in the Arab world, not the corrupt regimes." (Rubin, op cit)
While the participation of Israel in military operations is not mentioned, the thrust of Rubin's article points to active cooperation between Washington and Tel Aviv in military and intelligence affairs, including the conduct of covert operations in support of the opposition rebels. This coordination would also be carried out in the context of the bilateral military-intelligence cooperation agreement between Israel and Turkey. The larger point is that as long as Washington stays firm that no U.S. ground troops will be deployed, à la Kosovo and Libya, the cost to the United States will be limited. Victory may not come quickly or easily, but it will come. And the payoff will be substantial. Iran would be strategically isolated, unable to exert its influence in the Middle East.

A war on Syria is also a war on Palestine. It would weaken the resistance movement in the occupied territories. It would reinforce the Netanyahu government's ambitions to create a "Greater Israel", initially, through the outright annexation of the Palestinian territories:
"With the Islamic Republic deprived of its gateway to the Arab world, the Israelis' rationale for a bolt from the blue attack on its nuclear facilities would diminish. A new Syrian regime might eventually even resume the frozen peace talks regarding the Golan Heights. In Lebanon, Hezbollah would be cut off from its Iranian sponsor, since Syria would no longer be a transit point for Iranian training, assistance, and missiles. All these strategic benefits combined with the moral purpose of saving tens of thousands of civilians from murder at the hands of the Assad regime ... make intervention in Syria a calculated risk, but still a risk worth taking."
