Born in Deutschland 1965, hometown was Bütthart, parents were not U.S. government employees. However, when father was tricked into joining the U.S. Air Force Civil Service, in 1969, with the promise that we could remain in Germany, we were promptly shipped off to Iran. Due to one of my Iranian educators being disappeared, along with her husband, by the U.S. ally Shah of Iran's Israeli & U.S. created Savak (for the then official terrorist act of promoting the idea that women can vote), and due to my U.S. citizen mother being placed on Savak's Terrorist Arrest List (for supporting the idea that women should vote, at that time the U.S. ally Shah of Iran did not allow women to vote, now they can) we left Iran for the United States in 1973, literally in the middle of the night. At the U.S. Embassy airbase the CIA operated Gooney Bird (C-47) was so packed with other U.S. citizens fleeing our ally Iran (because the Shah gave the OK to arrest any U.S. citizen for such terrorist acts as promoting the concept of voting) that we were turned away by the Loadmaster and had to take a chance on a civilian flight out of Tehran's airport. My father told me he and my mother had three culture shocks; first when they arrived in Germany as civilians, then after being shipped off to Iran as U.S. government employees, then again returning to the United States as unemployed civilians (because so much had changed in the U.S. while they were gone, their only news source was the U.S. Armed Forces Radio & Television Service which heavily censored information about the home front). Since I graduated high school in 1982 I've worked for U.S. government contractors and state & local government agencies (in California), convenience store manager in California, retail/property management in Georgia, California and Idaho. Spent the 1990s in the TV news business producing number one rated local news programs in California, Arizona and Idaho. 14+ years with California and Idaho Army National Guard and the U.S. Air Force. Obtained a BA degree in International Studies from Idaho State University at the age of 42. Unemployed since 2015, so don't tell me the economy has recovered.

World War 3: What the Israelis said in 2012 about the ever expanding Leviathan/Levant!

“….an axis of Greece, Cyprus and Israel and possibly more countries which will offer an anchor of stability.”-Uzi Landau, Israel’s Energy Minister, March 2012

“We believe the natural gas finds in Israel, which were duplicated in Cyprus, will also be duplicated in Greece.”-Gideon Tadmor, Israel’s Delek Energy, March 2012

Notice that Greece is now destabilized and Cyprus has been taken over by the IMF and ECB.  This could be because those two countries failed to sign deals with Israel over Levant/Leviathan.

Ever since the first Tamar field was discovered by a U.S. company in 2009, more discoveries are being made, making it look as if the entire eastern Mediterranean Sea is one big petroleum field.  Each new find seems to be bigger than the previous find.  There are now Tamar, Dalit, Leviathan, Mari-B and other areas known as Blocks (Cyprus sits on Block 12).

One commentator said back in 2010, about the possibilities of the Levant Basin Province, that “…God has a sick sense of humor.”

Cyprus, Leviathan’s Block 12 and Israel!

Government Evil: Cyprus, Leviathan’s Block 12 and Israel!

01 April 2013/20 Jumada l-Ula 1434/12 Farvardin 1391/21 Yi-Mao (2nd month) 4711

I’ve been pointing to a possible connection between the financial take over of Cyprus and the recently discovered massive Leviathan/Levant Basin Province  petroleum fields in the Mediterranean Sea.  On 31 March 2013, Israel began pumping out natural gas from their Tamar fields (which is part of the larger Levant Basin Province).

At last report the Israeli company Delek Energy is planning to send some of that gas to Cyprus, then on to South Korea.  The Israeli government told Delek Energy to hold off on its export plans, just prior to the financial takeover of Cyprus.

The U.S. based Noble Energy owns 36% of the Tamar operations.

Control over Leviathan/Levant Basin is the real reason behind the U.S., European and Israeli backed insurgency in Syria and Lebanon, and efforts to keep Egypt destabilized, as well as Tunis and Libya.

Libya, Tunis, Egypt, Israel, Lebanon, Syria, Turkey and Greece border, or are strategically located near Levant Basin Province. If you look at a map of the Mediterranean, then draw a line straight south from Greece to Libya, the area under the Sea east of that line has become of extreme importance to western governments.

Cyprus borders an area known as Block 12 of the Levant fields.  Noble Energy, and Delek Energy have been working a deal to work the Cyprus side of Block 12.  Block 12A (Aphrodite) is estimated to have 7 trillion cubic feet of natural gas.  Other areas of Cyprus’s Block 12 are still being explored, but have already attracted investment from France, Italy and South Korea.

According to the latest reports in the Cyprus Mail, the whole financial takeover of Cyprus is about who gets to control the money that will be made from Block 12 of Leviathan/Levant.  Even Russia backed off of bailing out Cyprus because they realized their ‘investors’ could make more money off Block 12 than off their Cypriot bank accounts.

War over Leviathan!

World War 3: Jordan to help Palestine defend Al Quds (Jerusalem) from “Judaisation”! Non-racist Israelis bar Palestinian Christians from Easter celebrations!

01 April 2013/20 Jumada l-Ula 1434/12 Farvardin 1391/21 Yi-Mao (2nd month) 4711

“In this historic agreement, Abbas reiterated that the king is the custodian of holy sites in Jerusalem and that he has the right to exert all legal efforts to preserve them, especially al-Aqsa mosque. It is also emphasizing the historical principles agreed by Jordan and Palestine to exert joint efforts to protect the city and holy sites from Israeli Judaisation attempts.”-official statement from Royal Palace of King Abdullah II

On 31 March 2013, the Hashemite King of Jordan, Abdullah II ibn Al-Hussein, made a promise to the Palestinians, to defend Al Quds from Israeli zionists!  In return Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas (aka Abu Mazen) declared the King of Jordan the official protectorate of Al Quds!

Palestinian Minister for Religious Affairs, Mahmud Habbash, said that not only are Islamic sites in need of protection, but so are Christian sites, as Israel has been attacking both.  Just this past western Christian Easter Sunday (eastern Christians celebrate Easter in May) Israelis stopped Palestinian Christians from taking part in Easter celebrations, even though many live just five miles from Al Quds.

According to U.S. President Barack Obama, Israelis are not racists!

Here’s what many Palestinian Christians are saying about the non-racist Israelis:

“For us, the Palestinian suffering started in 1948. Jesus was condemned to death, and we were condemned to nonexistence!  I’m against permits. I don’t even think we should ask for permits. Do they [Jews] need permits to pray? Why do Muslims and Christians who wish to worship pose a threat while they don’t?”-Nora Carmi, member of interdenominational Christian group Kairos

“There should not even be a question of needing permits to visit one’s own city! East Jerusalem is the occupied capital of the Palestinian people and freedom of worship is a basic human right for all of our Christian and Muslim citizens, a right which is being systematically and increasingly denied by a foreign [Israeli] occupying force.”-Hanan Ashrawi, Palestinian Christian and politician/activist (whenever she appears in U.S. media they fail to mention she is not Muslim)

“Last year we had buses from all the parishes, around 17 to 18. This year only eight buses came. Some places, like Jenin, did not get any permits and while we had four buses last year from Bethlehem, there was only one this year!”-Ashraf Khatib

“This day can be long and dark, and give us hopelessness as the peace process is not moving. But Easter gives me hope that no oppression or injustice will last.”-Bishop Mounib Younan, Evangelical Lutheran Church in Jordan

In the past Israelis have blamed the oppression of Palestinian Christians on Muslims, but that is countered by the fact that many Palestinian Christians are members of the Palestinian Liberation Organization!

Why hasn’t the Israeli controlled U.S. main streamer media reported any of this?  Oh yeah…

Big Bank & Government Evil: More proof that the Cyprus bailout is a scam to steal people’s money from their bank acconts!

01 April 2013/20 Jumada l-Ula 1434/12 Farvardin 1391/21 Yi-Mao (2nd month) 4711

“It was not a bailout. It was a collective punishment. The amount of money that Cyprus required could have allowed a more gradual approach to addressing the economic structure problems. With these policies, not only the Cypriot financial system has suffered a serious blow, but the economy as well. And I have no doubt, that this will have also a fallout effect on the Eurozone on the whole…….Cyprus is doing much better than countries like Germany. And I think this issue about money laundering, it was an excuse…….it was reported that agents from German banks were coming to attract funds from Cyprus. Let me also say that what has happened to Cyprus is also related with a perverted image that they have created about Cyprus in the last few years. For example, it’s a place with money laundering, especially from Russia. And also that Cyprus is a headache to the rest of Europe. And that’s not true.”-Andreas Theophanous, economist University of Nicosia

The Bank of Cyprus has closed offices in the country of Romania!  The ten branches will be closed for one week to prevent Romanians trying to take all their money out of their accounts.

It’s also been revealed the bank will be sold off!

The family of Cypriot President, Nicos Anastasiades, is being outed by Cypriot media, because it turns out they took millions of euros out of bank accounts just a few days before the IMF/ECB bailout went into effect.

According to local media reports, the president’s son-in-law co-ownes a company called A.Loutsios & Sons.  That company transferred $27 million USD worth of promissory notes from Laiki Bank to a bank in London, U.K.

The Laiki (Popular) Bank was shut down as part of the undemocratic bailout (undemocratic because the IMF & ECB somehow circumvented the Cypriot Parliament).

President Anastasiades responded today by saying the country’s new high court judges will “….be given a mandate to investigate everything that is possibly related to me, including those relatives linked to me by marriage.”

It also turns out that some Cypriot politicians had their debts forgiven as part of the bailout (is that how the IMF & ECB circumvented the parliament?).

On 31 March, the leader of the Cypriot Orthodox Christian church demanded that the financial leaders of the country resign!  He says the country’s problems are not economic: “If we [the government of Cyprus] had spent within our means, we would not have the results we see today….This misfortune that has occurred to our country seems like an economic problem but it isn’t, at its core you will find sin!”-Archbishop Chrysostomos II

Russia just announced they will not help individual Russians who have money in Cypriot banks, but they will help Russian companies.

Also, I noticed Russian media reports now linking the Cyprus bailout to a “war” over control of petroleum rights.  I’ve been saying that from the beginning (check my past Cyprus postings).  It’s known as Leviathan.

Iran defeats United States….with Chocolate Ice Cream!

01 April 2013/20 Jumada l-Ula 1434/12 Farvardin 1391/21 Yi-Mao (2nd month) 4711

Iran has just defeated the United States in the Guinness World Record for biggest ‘cup’ of ice cream.

In 2005 Baskin Robbins won the title with a container of ice cream that weighed a little more than four U.S. (short) tons.  Iran has just taken the title with a container of chocolate ice cream weighing five tons!

I’m disappointed because my favorite Iranian ice cream is rose water, yet chocolate has become the favorite of many Iranians.  Mmmm, time for me to make my home made rose water ice cream!

Health supplements include cannibalising human babies, again!!!

01 April 2013/20 Jumada l-Ula 1434/12 Farvardin 1391/21 Yi-Mao (2nd month) 4711

Maybe you should shell out the bucks to have your favorite health supplement/vitamin tested at a local lab.  Make sure they test it for human flesh!!!

South Korean customs officials are reporting that health supplements seized at the Incheon International Airport contain human meat!

This didn’t happen just one time, but in 1715 inspections since May 2012!  A total of 468 kilograms (1032 pounds) of human babies has been found in the stuff that’s supposed to make you a better person!

The Korea Customs Service believes most of the human in the supplements are from infants!  They confirmed using DNA testing.  And there’s other nasties in there as well; dog, toads and even scarecrows.

This is not the first time.  In May 2012, South Korean officials revealed large amounts of health supplements, even viagra like pills, coming from China were made with things like dried human baby meat.  They said they began their pill inspections in August 2011.  Most confiscated pills are being found in the luggage of tourists.

(isn’t it ironic that some pills meant to increase sexual activity are being made with baby meat?)

World War 3: U.S. cancels plans to show off F-22s to media! North Koreans vote for more nukes! South Korean leader begs her military to put aside differences! Polls show ROKies are nuke happy!

01 April 2013/20 Jumada l-Ula 1434/12 Farvardin 1391/21 Yi-Mao (2nd month) 4711

Japanese and South Korean media outlets were disappointed when U.S. Air force officials canceled a planned viewing of the F-22s, supposedly at Osan Air Base, South Korea.

The planes flew in from Okinawa, Japan.  NHK (Nippon Housou Kyoukai) says they were told by USAF officials that the viewing was canceled on fears that it would “upset” North Korea, and that the situation has “changed”!

And at the yearly Supreme People’s Assembly in Pyongyang, North Korea (Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, DPRK), officials voted to increase nuclear power and rocket programs.

South Korea’s recently ‘elected’ President, Park Geun-hye, asked her military units to forget political differences: “In this crisis of security, our military’s role is very important in securing the Republic of Korea’s sovereign power and security. As commander in chief of the armed forces, I will trust the military’s judgment on abrupt and surprise provocations by North Korea.”

She even revealed how important North Korea’s Kaesŏng Industrial Region (KIR) is to the economy of South Korea: “We should also monitor the safety of our people in the Kaesong Industrial District.”

According to Canadian media, South Korean capitalist corporations made $470 million USD worth of products using the massive North Korean labor camp.

Several surveys conducted in South Korea (Republic of Korea, ROK) revealed that many ROKies want their own nukes!

A Gallop Korea poll shows 64% want nukes in South Korea.  Another poll done for Asan Institute for Policy Studies showed 66.5% support South Korea making its own nukes.  The polls were conducted back in February!

World War 3: F-22 Raptors deployed to South Korea! Confusing media reports.

31 March 2013/19 Jumada l-Ula 1434/11 Farvardin 1391/20 Yi-Mao (2nd month) 4711

The United States has deployed F-22 Raptors to South Korea, however, main streamer media is giving different reasons.

Some media sources say it’s part of annual Foal Eagle war games, while others say it is a direct response to North Korea’s increased threats of war. One media source said it was both.

Also confusing is that some media sources say the F-22s were deployed from the U.S., while other sources say they are from the U.S. Kadena Air Base in Japan.

World War 3: U.S. occupation of Afghanistan; 29 – 31 March 2013. More battles, home invasions, drone strikes! Red Coats getting out of Helmand! More burden upon the U.S. taxpayer!

31 March 2013/19 Jumada l-Ula 1434/11 Farvardin 1391/20 Yi-Mao (2nd month) 4711

In Logar Province, reports that U.S./Afghan forces conducted night time home invasions. At least four people were kidnapped.  No details on the exact location of the night raid.

In Helmand Province, in Wacha Neicha Karez area of Zamindawar region, Kajaki district, Mujahideen claim to have led a U.S./NATO raid into a compound that was rigged with explosives.  The U.S. led forces withdrew, and Mujahideen claim they captured night vision devices left behind by the raiders.

British Red Coat Royal Marines are preparing to leave Helmand Province in the next couple of days.  Most U.K. NATO forces will be out by the end of 2013.

The United States has been pulling out for the past year, and when it’s officially done in 2014 it will have cost U.S. taxpayers as much as $6 billion USD!!!  The U.S. Department of Defense does not call it withdrawal, they call it ‘retrograde operations’.  25000 military vehicles were removed in 2012.  But another 25000 vehicles remain, along with 100000 shipping containers full of equipment.   U.S. Army Brigadier General Steven Shapiro says the $6 billion figure could go higher: “The figures of five to six billion dollars corresponds to the total cost of retrograde from 2012 through 2014, and they’re constantly being reevaluated.”

However, the U.S. Army Reserve’s 56th Military Police Company was just called up to go to Afghanistan.  More than 170 reservists from Arizona, California, Texas, Oklahoma and Utah held their deployment ceremony on Easter Sunday.

In Kapisa Province, a Turkish Engineer captured by Mujahideen two years ago, was turned over to Turkish officials after successful negotiations.

In Maidan Warkdak Province, reports that U.S. SOF units have withdrawn from Nirkh District.

In Ghazni Province, reports that U.S./NATO airstrikes wounded dozens of civilians. The attack took place in Espand-De village.  An Afghan government spokesman said the airstrike was called in against a vehicle suspected of carrying Mujahhideen.  He said a number of Mujahideen were killed and at least 25 people were wounded.  Mujahideen confirm they attacked a U.S./Afghan government convoy, resulting in a two hour battle.  U.S./NATO attack helicopters were called in.  Mujahideen say 16 U.S./Afghan forces killed, 14 civilians killed and five Mujahideen killed.

In Logar Province, the Afghan government is investigating the killing of civilians by U.S./NATO forces after a two day offensive in Barak-e Barak District last week.  In October 2012 a similar offensive was launched with similar results.  ISAF eventually admitted that U.S. led troops killed civilians in that attack.

Pakistan accused Afghanistan of firing three artillery rounds into Pakistan.

In Tennessee U.S.A., a mall security cop threw out a Afghan war veteran because of his handicap vehicle. Michael Trost was a U.S. Army Master Sergeant who was shot four times in Afghanistan.  One of the bullets severed his sciatic nerve in his leg and he rides a Segway scooter as a handicap vehicle.  The mall cop accused the veteran of being reckless.

In Ghazni Province, a drone (UAV) was shot down in Ab Band district.  Mujahideen say it was an armed assassination drone because they were able to recover two missiles from the wreckage.

In Badakhshan Province, Wardaj district, reports that several U.S. airstrikes have killed seven civilians.

In Nangarhar Province, Hisarak district, 18 cops joined the Mujahideen.  A large amount of military weapons/gear was also given to Mujahideen.  In a show of confidence the Mujahideen published the names of the cops that joined them.

The U.S. Department of Defense says 2174 U.S. military personnel have died in the Afghan war.  That’s almost as much as the victims of 9/11, was it worth it?  (lets not forget the 4486 U.S. personnel killed in Iraq, and the hundreds of thousands of people killed in both Afghanistan and Iraq, and the fact that the U.S. invasions of both countries is costing U.S. taxpayers more than $4 trillion and counting!!!)

World War 3: North Korea has tactical nukes targeting U.S. bases in Japan! Attack map revealed! North Korea standing up for slave laborers of U.S. backed South Korea real reason for War!

31 March 2013/19 Jumada l-Ula 1434/11 Farvardin 1391/20 Yi-Mao (2nd month) 4711

The North Korean newspaper, Rodong Sinmun, stated that U.S. bases in Japan and Guam are being targeted with weapons that are equivalent to tactical nuclear weapons.

Also, recently it was pointed out that photos of Kim Jong Un in a war room meeting show a wallmap in the background indicating attack points on the United States.  Some of the targets are located on the Atlantic coast.  One analyst pointed out that the straight lines drawn on the map can’t be true indicators of attack because planes and ICBMs don’t fly in straight lines:  “It seems reasonable to suppose that the target map is designed for home consumption and to create an impression of war readiness for DPRK citizens that is part of a wider policy of strengthening national resolve.”-John Swenson-Wright, University of Cambridge

And in an apparent move to show that the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea is not desperate for western cash, Kim Jong Un threatened to close down the Gaeseong slave wage labor complex (aka Kaesŏng Industrial Region, aka KIR).  The massive labor camp was set up in a 2002 deal between North and South Korea.  The North provides dirt cheap labor for western capitalist corporations from South Korea (Republic of Korea).  According to Japanese media reports that labor camp employees 50000 North Koreans.

In 2009 North Korea demanded more money for the KIR workers.  Up ’till then workers were paid a paltry $75 USD per month!  North Korean officials wanted the pay increased to $300 per month.  Notice this is about the time the United States ramped up anti-North Korean rhetoric, and North Korea responded with the nuke testing!

By 2012 the average pay for KIR workers was only $160 per month.  That’s one fifth the minimum wage in South Korea, and a quarter of what most Chinese slave wage workers make.  Also, North Korea decided it was time for the U.S. backed South Korean companies to pay their fare share in taxes.  Many of the capitalist corporations claimed that even with the slave wages they were paying they weren’t making profits!

Maybe DPRK’s threat to shut down the KIR is a realization that the U.S. backed ROK is addicted to the cheap North Korean labor, and perhaps will hurt the South’s economy more than the North’s.

There are currently 123 South Korean companies taking advantage of the cheap North Korean labor.  Everything from clothing to jewelry to automotive parts to electronics are made there.
