While the establishment media was busy parroting President Obama’sannouncement of Osama bin Laden’s supposed assassination, reporting the unsubstantiated claims as if they were unquestionable facts, much of the so-called “alternative” press was far more cautious — and accurate, it turns out. But more importantly, with the new official storyline indicating that bin Laden was in fact unarmed, bigger and much more important questions are beginning to emerge.

Bahrain: International stands humiliate Al Khalifa, Saudi occupiers

As the Al Khalifa dictators and the Saudi occupiers continue their crackdown against the people of Bahrain, the regime is facing difficult choices. On one hand the international pressures are mounting despite the American and British support. President Obama called Bahrain’s dictator earlier this week to warn him against pursuing the destructive path of human rights violations, the continuing detention of the medical staff including doctors and nurses and against the sectarian cleansing. Despite their arrogance, the Al Khalifa were forced to release some of the female medical staff despite their earlier fabrication of stories to incriminate them. There are growing feelings that the world is finally beginning to discover the full extent of the Al Khalifa crimes and to take firm stands against this bloodthirsty regime.

Support for call to investigate Health Canada

Gertrude Stein
CDSAPI – Citizens Demand Scientific, Academic and Political Integrity
Ms Stein has sent this in support of Martin Weatheral’s call for Health Canada to be investigated
The letter asking that Health Canada must be investigated is not only dead on – it is long overdue. There is no greater threat to the health of Canadians than the ignorant arrogance that is pervasive in Health Canada, since they are the ones who set the regulatory standards. For some time now, I have renamed this corrupt government agency as the “Health Prohibition Branch”.
