Religious Evil: More evidence the Israelis don’t want peace

“The land in Judea and Galilee is occupied by the Arabs.”
“Well, we’ll take it from them.”……
…….“…We’ll harrass them until they get out … Let them go to Transjordan.”
“As soon as we have a big settlement here we’ll seize the land, we’ll become strong, and then we’ll take care of the Left Bank. We’ll expel them from there, too….”-cultural Zionist, Moshe Smilansky (1874-1953), claims he overheard this conversation after moving to Palestine from Ukraine, he hoped for a more peaceful alternative

“We shall try to spirit the penniless population across the border by procuring employment for it in the transit countries, while denying it any employment in our own country.”-Theodor Herzl (1860-1904), co-founder political Zionism, 1895 diary entry

“We must surely learn, from both our past and present history, how careful we must be not to provoke the anger of the native people by doing them wrong, how we should be cautious in our dealings with a foreign people among whom we returned to live, to handle these people with love and respect and, needless to say, with justice and good judgment. And what do our brothers do? Exactly the opposite!…..They deal with the Arabs with hostility and cruelty, trespass unjustly, beat them shamefully for no sufficient reason, and even boast about their actions…..these people [Arabs] will be revengeful like no other.”-Asher Zvi Hirsch Ginsberg (1856-1927), co-founder cultural Zionism, 1891 writing Wrestling with Zion, beginning to realize what European Jews had in store for Palestinians and regretting it

Note that these quotes sound a lot like Adolph Hitler’s National Socialism (NAZIsm), yet were stated decades before.  There is growing evidence that Hitler and the Zionists were directly connected: “Dr. Leo Baeck was a Freemason of the 33rd degree, leader of the German conference of Rabbis and Großpraeses of the German district of the Jewish order B’nai B’rith. In order to expose the deeper wisdom of the National Socialists, he was assigned by Hitler to be President of the Reich’s Deputation of the German Jews.”–Gerd Schmalbrock (IKC-Presse, Gladbeck, “Ihr Programm”, Nr. 83 v. 19. Nov. 1979)

Government Incompetence & World War 3: U.S. Marines banned from off camp drinking

03 December 2012, after all U.S. military personnel were banned from drinking alcohol off base in Okinawa on Saturday, the USMC has now extended that order to all U.S. Marines throughout Japan.

This comes after months of increased aggressive behavior (including rape and assaults) by U.S. personnel towards Japanese civilians.

 

International, U.S.

World War 3: U.S. occupation of Afghanistan; 27 – 30 November 2012. Britain refuses to hand over prisoners! New U.S. general in Afghanistan? Unknown disease kills fast, chemical warfare? Georgia sending more troops! More evidence of international tax money laundering!

30 November 2012

In Ghazni Province, at least four people killed, one wounded, after they drove over a landmine.

United Kingdom is refusing to hand over prisoners to Afghan control.  British say it’s because they suspect the Afghan security officials will torture the prisoners (kettle calling the pot black).  This comes after President Hamid Karzai ordered the execution of dozens of suspected Mujahideen held in Afghan controlled prisons.

The U.S. Senate Armed Services Committee is backing the appointment of USMC General Joseph Dunford Junior, to take over command of ISAF in Afghanistan.

U.S. Defense Secretary, Leon Panetta, confirmed that U.S. personnel will stay in Afghanistan past the official 2014 pull out, but refused to say how many: “The fundamental mission in Afghanistan is to establish an Afghanistan that can secure and govern itself and ensure that al Qaeda never again finds a safe haven within Afghanistan from which to conduct attacks on the United States or any other country.”

In Faryab Province, fighting going on in Almar district.  At least two Mujahideen killed by airstrikes, and one U.S./NATO armored vehicle destroyed by landmine.

29 November 2012

In Baghlan Province, two people have died and at least five people are sick with an unknown disease in Uruzngan village in Deh-Salah district.  Locals say those who died did so within ten minutes of showing symptoms: “One of my relative died after receiving a short shiver and another neighbor died within 10 minutes from the same disease.” (nerve agent?)

In Uruzgan Province, ten people killed and eight wounded after a bus ran over a landmine.

In Helmand Province, U.S./NATO launched heliborne operations in Kajaki district’s Loe Manda area.  The battles lasted from the morning until midnight.  U.S./NATO forces retreated. Mujahideen at first said one of their own was killed, but later said they suffered no casualties. Also, in Nawzad district Mujahideen claim they destroyed a Georgian tank with multiple rocket propelled grenades (RPG).

28 November 2012

More scandal for the Kabul Bank.  After it was revealed that international customers have withdrawn billions in cash from the Afghan bank, a new report shows that bank employees helped 19 individuals and companies take as much as $861 million USD in fraudulent loans (92% of all loans issued), in what the International Monetary Fund called a Ponzi scheme.

In Kandahar Province, at least seven people wounded after a suicide bomber exploded his motorcycle.  The bomber was killed.

In Helmand Province, four people killed after they drove over a landmine.

In Badghis Province, three Afghan National Army personnel killed, four wounded, after they drove over a landmine.

U.S. Special Envoy for Afghanistan and Pakistan, Marc Grossman, has resigned.  The reason given was that he wanted to “…return to private life”.

The country of Georgia revealed they have increased the number of troops in Afghanistan. They currently have 1,570 personnel in country, which is about double what they originally offered to send. According to Georgian Minister of Defense, Irakli Alasania, they are willing to send more if the U.S. requires, and they will remain past the official 2014 pull out.

27 November 2012

In Herat Province, International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) reports one of their drones crashed while on recon mission in Mujahideen territory.   Mujahideen say they did not shoot it down, that it crashed because of technical problems.

ISAF reports that 250 U.S./NATO bases have been turned over to Afghan government forces.

In Baghlan Province, local elections resulted in cop on cop firefights.  Police loyal to outgoing district security chief attacked police loyal to the newly elected district police boss. Local officials say at least two people killed, several wounded.

In Uruzgan Province, officials from Char Chino district report that U.S./NATO forces raided local homes in the Kakarki, Gohergeen and Nojoi areas. One man was killed, another wounded.

The government of Germany says Afghanistan is not ready for U.S./NATO pull out in 2014.  In the Afghanistan Report, Germany says too many Mujahideen remain operational, and there has been no efforts at reconciliation (blame the U.S. and even U.S. based NGOs for that).    Germany is planning on giving the Afghan government the equivalent of $558 million taxpayer dollars every year until the year 2016  (not counting the taxpayer funds going directly to Afghan security forces).

 

 

Fukushima, International

26 years later: Chernobyl expected to remain a threat for the next 100 years, at least! Warning for worse things to come from Fukushima Daiichi!

29 November 2012, two days ago workers in Ukraine raised steel arches over the entombed Chernobyl reactor: “This is a very significant milestone, which is a tribute to the ongoing commitment of the international donor community, and an important step towards overcoming the legacy of the accident.”-Suma Chakrabarti, European Bank for Reconstruction and Development

Those new steel arches weigh 5000 metric tons (5,511.5 tons), and are 22 meters (72 feet) tall!  The steel container won’t be finished until 2015.  It’ll weigh 20000 metric tons (22,046 tons) and is designed to allow ongoing decontamination work for the next 100 years!

26 years ago the Soviet designed reactor melted down, and it’s still spewing radiation.

The Soviets slammed Chernobyl with tons of concrete, sand and boric acid.  The impromptu concrete tomb was breaking down and a new one was built.  But even that one is breaking down, so a new massive steel tomb is being built, hopefully to contain the radiation for the next century.

Now realize that Chernobyl is only one reactor, with no spent fuel storage, and Japan’s General Electric designed Fukushima Daiichi melt down disaster involves at least four damaged reactors with four spent fuel pools that contained hundreds of fuel rods, each.

Initially Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCo) said they could have Fukushima Daiichi cleaned up by July 2011!!!  In December 2011 the Japanese government published their own report, saying cleanup will take at least 40 years, TEPCo downplayed the government report.  Then in March 2012, TEPCo admitted that reactors actually melted down.  Now, at the beginning of November 2012, TEPCo is admitting that clean up will take much longer, and they’ve even doubled their estimated cleanup and compensation costs from $62.5 billion USD to $125 billion!

Global Economic War: Japanese car production crashing in China! Japanese exports to China crashing!

29 November 2012, anti-Japanese sentiment in China is having a drastic effect on Japanese car production in the (supposedly) communist country.

Overall, the six Japanese car companies operating in China saw a 48.9% drop in production in October (compared to October 2011).  It’s even more drastic when you look at production for each company.

Mazda down 27.6%

Suzuki  down  32.6%

Nissan down 44%

Honda down 54.2%

Toyota down 61.1%

Mitsubishi down 84.6%

Even cars made in Japan for the Chinese market are not going anywhere fast:

Nissan exports to China down 75.9%

Toyota exports to China down 91.3%

Mazda exported zero cars to China in October!

There might be some good news for the United States.  Japanese car company officials say they will now shift focus of production of many vehicles to South East Asian countries, and the U.S.

Corporate Evil: Was Sears involved in counterfeit clothing? “Books” show Sears was client of illegal fashion factory! Don’t think 18 cents per hour is good money in Bangladesh, it’s not! Walmart blames you!

“It was my fault. But nobody told me that there was no emergency exit, which could be made accessible from outside. Nobody even advised me to install one like that, apart from the existing ones. I could have done it, but nobody ever suggested that I do it.”-Delowar Hossain, factory owner

Days after a fire killed more than 120 people (reports now say there will be more bodies found, as the initial body count was a guess) and injured 200, the factory owner accepts blame, and three of his supervisors are now charged with locking the workers in the building because they thought the fire alarm was fake (they actually believed the workers were trying to escape their wretched working conditions), another ‘illegal’ fashion factory goes up in flames (this time no one was locked in, but there were injuries), and the disaster reveals that unAmerican Corporate America is involved more than ever in slave wage factories (to get those high profits to make their investors happy, it’s not about keeping prices cheap for the lowly consumer).

The police and the Prime Minister of Bangladesh said they believe the fire was “an act of sabotage”.  A disgruntled employee perhaps?

Other reports say the factory was operating illegally anyway.  Both Walmart and Disney issued statements saying they canceled contracts with the factory at least 12 months ago, on the grounds the factory was dangerous.  Yet clothing with their brands on them were being made right up ’till the fire broke out.

Here’s some other companies/brands that were having clothing made at the illegal factory: ENYCE, Teddy Smith and Edinburgh Woollen Mill.  But another company was found listed in the factory account books: Sears.  If companies like Walmart and Disney swear they canceled their contracts a year ago, then who were those shirts, sweaters and hoodies (with Walmart’s Faded Glory label, and the Disney label) being made for?

I hear Sears is in big trouble money wise and has been struggling to get its profits up.  Just sayin’.  But of course Sears Holdings denies they’re involved, and yet at the same time plans to rectify the fire safety issue: “We can also confirm that Sears Holdings does not source from this factory….In addition, Sears recognizes that fire safety is a critical international issue that we intend to address through specialized training for management in those factories that produce merchandise for Sears Holdings.”-Sears Holdings statement

If they’re not involved then why is Sears in the fashion factory’s client account books and why did Sears say they will address fire safety at such factories?

According to the Associated Press, since 2006 at least 313 people have died in fashion factories in Bangladesh.

According to industry watchdog groups, labor rights groups and even the World Bank, the average pay for a fashion factory worker in Bangladesh is the equivalent to $38 USD per day!  And that’s double what they were being paid last year, they had to go on violent strikes to get the $38 per day!!!

Another report said they get paid the equivalent of 50 cents per hour in the United States!!!

And don’t think the fashion industry in Bangladesh can’t afford to pay more, last year they made $20 billion USD, making up 80% of Bangladesh’s Gross Domestic Product!!!

Companies that help retailers like Walmart hook up with fashion suppliers,  blamed the U.S. consumer:  “You have relentless pressure that consumers put on retailers and that retailers put on their suppliers to deliver lower and lower prices. And that pressure is a key reason why you see factories cutting corners.”-Josh Green, Panjiva

The only reason the average U.S. consumer “demands” lower prices is because their pay and benefits continue to go down year after year.  Blame unAmerican Corporate America!

World War 3: Dozens of U.S. allies in War on Terror say they will vote for Palestine!

“We obviously disagree with our oldest ally [France] on this issue. They know that we disagree with them.”-Victoria Nuland, U.S. State Department spokeswoman

28 November 2012, dozens of allies of the United States, such as France and Denmark, say they will vote against the wishes of the U.S. and Israel, and vote for Palestine!

The United Nations General Assembly will vote on granting Palestine non-member status, a way of recognizing Palestine as an official state: “It is of a magnitude of a historic level and I am sure that many other European countries will follow the example of France and we thank them in advance for being on the side of history and the side of humanity.”-Riyad Mansour, Palestinian envoy

French Foreign Minister, Laurent Fabius, also revealed that five of the permanent members of the UN Security Council will vote in favor of Palestine. Austrian officials said more than half the 27 members of the European Union will vote for Palestine.

“You know that for years and years, France’s consistent position has been the recognition of the Palestinian state. That is why when the question is raised on Thursday and Friday, France will respond with a ‘yes’!”-Laurent Fabius

This shows the United States, being one of the permanent UNSC members, has lost its influence on the international political scene.

Breaking news: Israel breaks ceasefire, wounds five Gazans, kidnap fishermen, sinks their boats!

“In a new violation of the ceasefire, the Zionist enemy arrested nine citizens and sunk several boats in the sea off the northern Gaza Strip!”-Islam Shahwan, Hamas

28 November 2012, typical of Israel, they are always the ones who break agreements, despite what the Israeli controlled U.S. media says!

According to Palestinian/Gazan medical reports Israeli troops open fired on people near the al-Bureij refugee camp in the central Gaza.  Four Palestinians wounded.

In an area north of the refuge camp, another person was shot and wounded by an Israeli soldier.

Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) say they shot at people who were approaching a border fence “acting violently”, even though those people were not armed.

IDF navy also kidnapped nine Palestinian fishermen from Gaza, and then sunk their fishing boats.

Palestinians in Gaza consider this a violation of the ceasefire agreement, but are giving Israel a chance if they release the kidnapped fishermen.

World War 3: U.S. occupation of Afghanistan; 23 – 26 November 2012. U.S. peace NGO wants more war! U.S. will stay! Afghan rockets hit Pakistan! University students thrown out of 4th story windows because they are Shia Muslims!

26 November 2012

Yet again, religious leaders have condemned suicide bombing.  The Clerics Council of Afghanistan said such attacks are prohibited in Islam.  Those behind tricking people into committing such acts are not eligible to enter paradise. Those who carryout the suicide bombing are committing an unforgivable sin.

So who’s really behind such acts?  There is plenty of evidence that the United States created al Qaeda (including that presented in a banned BBC documentary).  According to regional journalists the Taliban kicked out the last vestiges of al Qaeda in 1999 (at the insistence of  U.S. President Bill Clinton), so there was no al Qaeda in Afghanistan when the U.S. invaded (remember, even President Bushy Jr hosted a first ever visit to the U.S. by Taliban officials).  Then the U.S. invades Iraq, with one of the reasons being that Saddam Hussein supports al Qaeda, which was never true, because Hussein was the main reason why al Qaeda never gained a foothold in Iraq. Guess who shows up after the U.S. occupies Iraq?  Why al Qaeda!  Then there’s the U.S./EU led false revolution in Libya.  Almost immediately after the U.S. and EU declares support for the “rebels” guess who shows up in great numbers? Al Qaeda!  Now we have Syria, where the reports and documentations of al Qaeda operations are bigger than ever, and those al Qaeda operatives that talk to the media even boast how they’re getting money and weapons from the U.S. (there is video of them getting paid with brand new U.S. $100 bills, and being equipped with the latest M16/M4 assault rifles)!

New York City based Human Rights Watch says they don’t want peace with the Mujahideen: “Providing immunity from prosecution for genocide, war crimes, crimes against humanity, and other serious human rights abuses violates international law. Future government talks with the Taliban should not hinge upon denying justice to victims of war crimes and other abuses.”-Brad Adams, HRW

Ok Brad Adams, what’s good for the goose is good for the gander, no peace without justice against the United States for all it’s war crimes!  Are you sure non-governmental agency HRW hasn’t been subverted by the U.S. government?

ISAF said: “An International Security Assistance Force service member died following an improvised explosive device attack in southern Afghanistan today.”

In Nimroz province, Mujahideen claim they ambushed a U.S./NATO convoy, destroying one armored vehicle and a fueler. Later that night they say a landmine destroyed a U.S./NATO tank.  Both happened in the Lakhshakaan area of Delaram district.

In Khost Province, two people were killed and 18 wounded when a bicycle bomb exploded in a local market.

In Nangarhar Province, hundreds of people in Jalalabad city protested President Karzai’s orders to execute Mujahideen.

25 November 2012

The Wall Street Journal reported that the Obama administration wants to keep 6,000 to 15,000 U.S. personnel in Afghanistan after the 2014 withdrawal date.

The Ministry of Higher Education of Afghanistan closed all state universities because of attacks against Shia Muslims.

24 November 2012

ISAF said: “A U.S. Forces-Afghanistan service member died today following an insurgent attack in southern Afghanistan.”

Wardak Province, local government officials say a U.S. airstrike, in Baghak area of Syedabad district, killed at least six people.

People living in Pakistan, near the Afghan border, say nine rockets were fired from Afghanistan’s Paktia Province.  Also, a Pakistani TV report said 20 mortar rounds were fired into Pakistan from Afghanistan.  People living near the border say it all started after U.S./NATO forces abandoned a base in Paktia Province.

In Nimroz Province, the residents of Khwaja Sarda say U.S. led forces carried out an illegal night raid, and kidnapped three people.

A girl made famous by the Girl in Green photo returned to where her relatives were killed or wounded in last years Ashura suicide bombing against Muslims.  It is one of thousands of suicide terror attacks against Muslims since the War on Terror started (where are the massive terror attacks against christians and jews?).  While U.S. puppet officials blame Muslim Mujahideen for attacking Muslim civilians in Afghanistan, it’s most likely U.S. created al Qaeda.  Al Qaeda has declared war on all Muslims who’re not Salafi/Wahhabi Musilm.  Al Qaeda has been especially ruthless against Shia Muslims.

In Kabul Province, Shia Muslim students at Kabul University were attacked by dozens of people, some being thrown out 3rd and 4th floor windows.  Reports vary, saying as many as two people killed and 10 wounded.   Local police say they arrested as many as 40 people.

23 November 2012

In Maidan Wardak Province, a major car bomb attack took place at a security training center in Maidan Shar.  Six U.S. personnel were wounded, 90 Afghans wounded and three killed.  Local Mujahideen say the attack was in response to Karzai’s order to execute imprisoned Mujahideen.

In Nangarhar Province, a suicide bomber exploded at a U.S./NATO base. At least five security guards wounded.
