The resignation of Admiral Fallon will provoke renewed fighting in Iraq

Posted by seumasach on June 10, 2008

by Thierry Meyssan(Voltairenet)

Contrary to what has been written so far in the mainstream media, Admiral William Fallon was not removed because he was opposing President Bush on an attack against Iran. He resigned from his own initiative after the agreement he had negotiated and concluded with Tehran, Moscow and Peking was sabotaged by the White House. This decision by the Bush administration will provoke renewed fighting in Iraq and exposes gravely the GI’s to a new Resistance this time supported without restraints from the outside.

Mercury Fillings Shattered! FDA, ADA Conspiracy to Poison Children with Toxic Mercury Fillings Exposed in Groundbreaking Lawsuit

Posted by seumasach on June 10, 2008

Thursday, June 05, 2008 by: Mike Adams(Natural News)

(NaturalNews) The FDA has, for decades, ridiculously insisted that mercury fillings pose no health threat whatsoever to children. While dismissing hundreds of studies showing a clear link between mercury amalgam fillings (“silver fillings”) and disastrous neurological effects in the human body, the FDA denied the truth about mercury and effectively protected the mercury filling racket that has brought so much harm to so many people. For over a hundred years, a cabal of “mercury mongers” made up of the American Dental Association, mercury filling manufacturers and indignant dentists have reaped windfall profits by implanting toxic fillings into the mouths of children, all while insisting that mercury — one of the most toxic heavy metals known to modern science — posed no health threat whatsoever.

by Sandro Cruz

Every four years, the election of the President of the United States takes a big media show that keeps the world in tenterhooks. The US electoral system, which is extremely complex and controlled by the oligarchy, offers a popular sovereignty image, despite the fact that it was created to counter such sovereignty. Thierry Meyssan answers our questions about the hidden operations of «democracy» made in the U.S.A. Read the rest of this entry »

O2 Lying Again About Masts

Are Mobile Phone Masts Making Us Ill?

By Colin Hutton(Clydebank Post)

28th May, 2008

“There’s been a lot of research carried out in the last ten years into mobile phone technology and there’s absolutely no link between health and the masts.” All ten epideminological studies carried out since 2002 have shown clear links between masts and health problems amongst local residents.With the backing of the likes of the Health Protection Agency, companies like O2 can continue to lie with impunity and to undermine our health.

FEARS have been raised that a community’s health could be at risk because of an “excessive” amount of phone masts in the area.

With a total of seven masts, many residents are concerned that recent ill-health — including dizzyness and migraines — might be down to the phone towers. Read the rest of this entry »
