“We do know in the UN which are the two battalions. Interestingly, one of them was trained by the Americans, that’s what the American ambassador himself told me!”-Zainab Hawa Bangura, UN special representative on sexual violence

United Nations officials investigated mass rape cases in the Democratic Republic of Congo (not to be confused with Republic of Congo).  126 women were raped, and UN investigators confirmed it was carried out by two DRC government battalions, one of which was trained by U.S. forces in 2010.

Recently rebels succeeded in taking control of DRC.  Even though it’s been proven that crimes against humanity were indeed being carried out by government troops, the UN created the first ever military force (Intervention Brigade) to invade DRC and remove the rebels from control.

World War 3, Africa Front: False Flag mass shooting in gun controlled Kenya!

19 April 2013 (18:06 UTC-07 Tango 18 April 2013)/08 Jumada t-Tania 1434/30 Farvardin 1391/10 Bing-Chen (3rd month) 4711

“It’s still very early to tell who the attackers are and the motive behind it. It’s very unfortunate that we continue losing innocent lives. We will pursue these very heartless people and arrest them.”–Maalim Mohamed, Garissa County Commissioner

In the African country of Kenya, strict gun control laws failed to prevent a mass shooting.  At least six people killed, ten wounded.

Officials say armed men walked into hotel Kwa Chege and began shooting.  Officials have no proof of who did it, but they are blaming Muslims.

Kenya bans the ownership of assault weapons, full or semi-auto. Ammo that can be used in assault type weapons are also banned.  Kenya also requires anybody who wants to own a pistola to get licensed, which requires criminal and mental background checks, plus third party references.  You must renew the license every year.  Possessing an illegal gun will get you 15 years in prison.  Possessing a legal gun without a license will get you ten years in prison.

Yet with all those gun control laws, on 18 April 2013, six people killed, ten wounded in a mass shooting.  Where’s the U.S. main streamer media on this one?

We once again condemn this American savagery with the strongest of words.

World War 3, East Asian Front: North Korea issues demands!

18 April 2013 (01:49 UTC-07 Tango)/07 Jumada t-Tania 1434/29 Farvardin 1391/09 Bing-Chen (3rd month) 4711

Policy Department of the National Defence Commission (NDC) of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea:

First, they should immediately stop all their provocative acts against the DPRK and apologize for all of them.
    As the first phase, they should take measures of retracting the UN Security Council’s “resolutions on sanctions” cooked up under absurd pretexts.
    They should bear in mind that doing so would be a token of good will towards the DPRK.
    The south Korean puppet forces should promptly halt all anti-DPRK rackets being kicked up by them, linking their own mishaps such as the Cheonan warship sinking incident and the “March 20 hacking case” to the north.
    Second, they should give formal assurances before the world that they would not stage again such nuclear war drills to threaten or blackmail the DPRK.
    Dialogue can never go with war actions.
    Frequent nuclear war maneuvers will only strain the situation and totally block the way of dialogue.
    The army and people of the DPRK will not be taken in by sophism that the nuclear war drills being staged under its very nose are annual and defensive military actions for defending the U.S. and guaranteeing the security of south Korea.
    Third, they should make a decision to withdraw all nuclear war means from south Korea and its vicinity and give up their attempt to reintroduce them as their immediate duty.
    They should bear in mind that the denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula can begin with the pullout of the nuclear war means introduced by the U.S. and this may lead to the global denuclearization.

World War 3, North American Front: Boston bombings video captures possible paramilitary bombers

17 April 2013 (12:26 UTC-07 Tango)/06 Jumada t-Tania 1434/28 Farvardin 1391/08 Bing-Chen (3rd month) 4711

Clear pics, taken from different angles, have surfaced from the Boston Marathon, showing men wearing black jackets, khaki pants and khaki shoes (paramilitary/contract cops?) and carrying large black backpacks.  One looks to have security credentials hanging from his neck.

The backpacks match the remains of a shredded backpack found at one of the explosion sites (pic of that posted by FBI).  There are also pics of several men in civilian clothes holding similar backpacks, they are all in the area of the explosions.  Another pic shows a man placing a black backpack in a the threshold of a doorway of the building in the explosion area.

Apparently the pics were posted yesterday.  The pics were taken from the second floor of the building where the first explosion took place.  They focus on the crowd below, not on the runners in the street.

There is video of a man getting up and running for his life after an explosion.  His black shirt and black pants are shredded, but he’s apparently not hurt because he immediately gets up and runs way before anyone else in the blast area has recovered their senses.

Do the internet search yourself.

World War 3, Economic Front: Credit Card companies shutting down mom & pops with outrageous fees!

17 April 2013 (10:20 UTC-07 Tango)/06 Jumada t-Tania 1434/28 Farvardin 1391/08 Bing-Chen (3rd month) 4711

Recently I was told by a Spanish small business owner I know, that he had to stop taking credit card payments because of a huge increases in fees being charged to small businesses.

He said the outrageous fee hikes involve VISA, MasterCard and American Express.  Turns out that MasterCard is actually being investigated for violating the European Union’s anti-trust laws.

According to EU investigators, MasterCard has jacked up fees on purchases involving cardholders living outside the EU.  Here in the U.S. credit card companies already charge cardholders extra fees for making purchases outside the United States, so it seems they’re now charging business owners in Europe extra fees for international sales as well.

MasterCard officials blamed banks for issuing cards with higher fee rates, but then said “….MasterCard always aims to balance the interests of both consumers and retailers to ensure that each party pays its fair share of the costs…”

You mean those outrageous interest rates aren’t enough to cover your costs, MasterCard?   “Fair share” my ass!

MasterCard also said the higher fees were the only way the company could remain “viable”.

VISA is also being investigated.  VISA is the biggest credit card scammer, I mean credit card service provider in the EU.  It too has created outrageous ‘cross-border’ purchaser/seller fees.

What those dumb ass highly educated credit card corporate officials don’t realize is the net effect of continuing to create new fees, and jack up existing fees and interest rates, is that it will greatly reduce credit card use, which could render them inviable.

World War 3, Economic Front: China returns to buying U.S. bonds!

17 April 2013 (09:52 UTC-07 Tango)/06 Jumada t-Tania 1434/28 Farvardin 1391/08 Bing-Chen (3rd month) 4711

China has increased its holdings of U.S. Treasury bonds (aka U.S. government debt).  Last year at this same time China held $1.16 trillion USD of U.S. bonds, now it’s at $1.22 trillion.

According to the U.S. Treasury, the $9.16 billion increase took place in February.  Apparently China still thinks the U.S. is good for the money.
