New Year 2008 may destroy USA’s struggling economy
|
| A forecast made by Denmark-based Saxo Bank, chaos will take a grip on the world in 2008. Oil prices will skyrocket to 175 dollars per barrel, the Chinese market will collapse by 40 percent, whereas the U.S. will suffer a 25-percent setback. All this will happen because of the mortgage crisis in the USA which already slows down the U.S. economy.

Vermont town seeks Bush, Cheney arrests
|
| President Bush may soon have a new reason to avoid left-leaning Vermont: In one town, activists want him subject to arrest for war crimes. A group in Brattleboro is petitioning to put an item on a town meeting agenda in March that would make Bush and Vice President Cheney subject to arrest and indictment if they visit the southeastern Vermont community.

Row breaks out over Benazir Bhutto's death
|
| The burial of Benzair Bhutto was today marred by heavy violence across Pakistan as a bitter row broke out over how she died. As hundreds of thousands mourned the murdered opposition leader, the country's Interior Ministry claimed she had died from hitting her vehicle's sunroof when she tried to duck after a suicide attack. However, one of Miss Bhutto's aide rejected the government's explanation of her death as a "pack of lies".

Statement Introducing the Free Competition in Currency Act
|
| Madame Speaker, I rise to introduce the Free Competition in Currency Act. This act would eliminate two sections of US Code that, although ostensibly intended to punish counterfeiters, have instead been used by the government to shut down private mints. As anti-counterfeiting measures, these sections are superfluous, as 18 USC 485, 490, and 491 already grant sufficient authority to punish counterfeiters.

Provocation in New Orleans? Men in Masks Stir up Violence
|
| In New Orleans a protest surrounding the demolition of housing projects turned ugly as protesters and officers squared off in front of a city council building according to abc news. This details how people were tasered, chemical spray was used and people dragged down to the pavement by arresting officers and protesters. What it didn’t show or detail in this report was the presence of masked and hooded individuals obviously provoking the crowd and officers shown in the photo below.

Vans With Explosives Confirmed at the World Trade Center on September 11th
|
| Reports of vans packed with explosives were confirmed at the World Trade Center on September 11th, 2001 as well as sub level explosions, among many other explosions. Vans were also discovered around the area, one had been exploded, one had been stopped for having a picture on the side of it with a plane flying into the World Trade Center, one had been stopped and found with explosives in it, and many others. The FBI actually had confirmed that a device was found in the complex and the building had begun to evacuate. It was this evidence that made the Federal Agency speculate that a van packed with explosives was parked in the garage which was detonated to help weaken the structure.

Disinformation Campaign in JFK, 9/11 Research by Anti-Semite
|
| Michael Collins Piper, a reporter for the American Free Press, seems to advocate Israeli Mossad as being the "All Seeing Eye" at the top of the pyramid. The research put forth by Piper and many others, is extremely bias and focused on identifying Jewish names in all the conspiracy theories, and then building an argument from that, rather than presenting any evidence. It is weak, reckless and poor to suggest that there is a Jewish conspiracy based solely on the findings of Jewish names in different areas of power and then accusing them of crimes there is no evidence of.

AT&T Offers GPS and RFID Child Tracking
|
| There's no doubt that schools and teachers can face significant challenges trying to keep track of hundreds of students and assure their safety while simultaneously teaching them something. (I can personally attest that I was rarely learning something at the same time my teachers knew where I was.) Now AT&T is looking to apply technology to the problem, offering a comprehensive child-tracking solution for the K-12 education market combining RFID and GPS technologies to enable schools to keep track of school bus locations and speed while simultaneously monitoring events within the vehicles.

Congress will defy Justice Dept. on destroyed CIA tapes; Harman: 'We're in Constitutional crisis'
|
| Despite the Justice Department's objections, a Congressional panel will press ahead with its investigation into destroyed CIA interrogation tapes, according to a key Republican on the panel. "I think we will issue subpoenas," said Rep. Pete Hoekstra (R-MI), the House Intelligence Committee's ranking Republican, on Fox News Sunday. "And once these witness appear in front of the committee, then I think we'll have to make the decision as to whether we're going to provide them with immunity or not. But our investigation should move forward."

U.S. Concentration Camp Locations
|
| The following video is of a FEMA 'railway repair facility' - the only problem is that the barbed wire fences are designed not to keep people out, they face inwards. While there is no use or need for the facility, the government has been spending millions of dollars converting this facility into an ideal concentration camp along with gassing equipment.

"It's the same old story," Paul said. "If Newsweek can't discredit the message, they have to discredit the messenger."

House Votes for Big Brother Public Wi-Fi Law
|
| Nowadays, since “everything changed,” it is normal for Congress to rush legislation through without hearings or committee votes. Congress did this with the “Securing Adolescents From Exploitation-Online (SAFE) Act,” a government nanny law supposedly designed to protect children from illegal images, including “obscene” cartoons and drawings, available over open Wi-Fi connections.

Domestic Spying, Inc.
|
| A new intelligence institution to be inaugurated soon by the Bush administration will allow government spying agencies to conduct broad surveillance and reconnaissance inside the United States for the first time. Under a proposal being reviewed by Congress, a National Applications Office (NAO) will be established to coordinate how the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and domestic law enforcement and rescue agencies use imagery and communications intelligence picked up by U.S. spy satellites. If the plan goes forward, the NAO will create the legal mechanism for an unprecedented degree of domestic intelligence gathering that would make the U.S. one of the world's most closely monitored nations.
