Gordon Brown aide a victim of honeytrap operation by Chinese agents
Posted by alfied on July 21, 2008
Just another example of the tired, worn out stories that are part of Britain’s desperate propaganda campaign against China. It won’t be long before, the already, befuddled brits are being told to check for Chinese under their beds.

A top aide to Gordon Brown has been a suspected victim of a “honeytrap” operation by Chinese intelligence agents.
The aide, a senior Downing Street adviser who was with the prime minister on a trip to China earlier this year, had his BlackBerry phone stolen after being picked up by a Chinese woman who had approached him in a Shanghai hotel disco. Read the rest of this entry »

US Policy Shift On Iran-Iraq Again Shows Brzezinski Rules In Washington
Posted by seumasach on July 20, 2008
This, indeed, looks like the new Obama foreign as we seeit already unfolding under Bush. But, it has to said that it looks like utter fantasy, a wish list of targets from an ailing hegemon which looks destined to be checked at every stage by the diplomacy of Russia, South America, Iran, China and Africa; in short, by the movement of emerging and reemerging nations given such stimulus by US/UK aggression. Already, the latter are faltering in Zimbabwe, Sudan, Kosovo and Burma: the game is just too transparent. The shift is, after all, the result of military defeat in Iraq and Afghanistan, from which the allies are retreating whilst sounding the charge. We can expect retreat to turn into a rout over the next year as the US/UK financial system implodes and all and sundry jump ship leaving the oligarchy high and dry.

Golden rule changes ‘designed to save banks
Posted by seumasach on July 20, 2008
Or viewed from another perspective: what happens when you save the banks but everyone else goes under? What happens when consumption collapses, the pound tumbles and the state itself is bankrupt? With a dead stare, Britain looks into the abyss.

The Treasury may be planning to raise the limit on public borrowing in an effort to give it “room for manoeuvre” for a potential rescue operation for the banking system, a leading expert has suggested.

I am a single mother with a 9-year-old boy. To stay warm at night my son and I would pull off all the pillows from the couch and pile them on the kitchen floor. I’d hang a blanket from the kitchen doorway and we’d sleep right there on the floor. By February we ran out of wood and I burned my mother’s dining room furniture. I have no oil for hot water. We boil our water on the stove and pour it in the tub. I’d like to order one of your flags and hang it upside down at the capital building… we are certainly a country in distress. — Letter from a single mother in a Vermont city, to Senator Bernie Sanders Read the rest of this entry »

Honey bee becoming endangered species
Posted by smeddum on July 20, 2008
At last, (since April 2007)the connection between electrosmog and CCD is getting some recognition in the UK press, albeit inside a local paper.
EAST Sutherland Beekeepers emerged from last winter to some very nasty discoveries.
Early checks for signs of life and activity in beehives were not encouraging and when at last the weather allowed them to open up the hives it was even worse than anticipated. Many beekeepers found that their colonies were dead or on their last legs. Read the rest of this entry »

10 Reasons Why Parents Question Vaccination
Posted by seumasach on July 19, 2008
See also EoE archives
For some time now, members of the government and the medical industry have tried to explain away the phenomenon of parental refusal to vaccinate. Despite the government’s own studies, such as Rogers and Pilgrim; 1993, which shows that “Older, highly educated parents form the basis of the [sic] anti-immunisation lobby”, parents continue to be accused of being ignorant, uncaring and stupid for refusing vaccines which the medical community claim will keep their children healthy.
In an effort to set the record straight, the AVN, which is contacted by more than 10,000 Australian parents each year who question this procedure, would like to give you the 10 most common reasons why the parents who contact us have chosen not to vaccinate.

Gates warns of militarization of US foreign policy
Posted by seumasach on July 19, 2008
This is a nice summary of the Obama school of foreign policy thinking, ommiting only the anti-Russian dimension.This policy seems already to be mainstream. Thus, in addition to the ongoing provocations in Burma, Zimbabwe and Kosovo, we have as Bhadrakumar puts it:
‘The strong possibility.. that the Bush administration will press the pedal on multiple fronts on the Eurasian geopolitical landscape and create a fait accompli of US-Russian mutual antagonism for Senator Barack Obama, should he become president.“
WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. military’s growing role in rebuilding war-battered nations has fueled concerns about a “creeping militarization” of American foreign policy, Defense Secretary Robert Gates said Tuesday.

Last week, the gloves finally came off the Dmitry Medvedev presidency in Russia. It had to happen sooner or later, but few would have expected this soon. It was crystal clear US President George W Bush administered a diplomatic snub to Medvedev on the sidelines of the Group of Eight (G-8) summit meeting at Hokkaido, Japan.
