03 July 2013 (10:36 UTC-07 Tango)/24 Sha’ban 1434/12 Tir 1391/26 Ji-Wie (5th month) 4711

“As I write these lines I am fully aware that these may be the last lines I get to post….…For the sake of Egypt and for historical accuracy, let’s call what is happening by its real name: Military coup.  “-Essam al-Haddad, national security adviser to democratically elected Mohamed Morsi

Reports that the military has issued travel ban orders for Morsi supporters and the Muslim Brotherhood.

Reports that Egyptian military has surrounded the Presidential Palace with armored cars and tanks.

Today, the U.S. Department of Defense admitted they held phone discussions with Egyptian General Abdel Fattah al-Sisi yesterday, and last week, about the possibility of a coup.

Martial Law U.S.A.: How one city in Ohio celebrates Independence Day, with tyranny!

03 July 2013 (10:24 UTC-07 Tango)/24 Sha’ban 1434/12 Tir 1391/26 Ji-Wie (5th month) 4711

In the U.S. state of Ohio, Independence Day doesn’t mean freedom, it means police state thuggery!

The mayor of Lakewood, Mike Summers, said it best when he revealed how much the U.S. has changed.  Instead of liberty and justice for all, the new mantra is “Safety is our first priority.”  (way to go, Ohio!)

On 14 June 2013 the city issued the following totalitarian martial laws:

  1. All generators, propane and gas fueled grills are prohibited.
  2. All tents and shelters are prohibited.
  3. Police will be conducting searches of bags and coolers for reasons of public safety.
  4. No alcoholic beverages are permitted at any time throughout the year.
  5. No personal fireworks. This includes novelty fireworks like sparklers.
  6. No dogs or pets of any kind will be permitted in the park on July 4th.
  7. The skate park, tennis courts, basketball courts and Kid’s Cove playground will be closed at 7:00 p.m.

World War 3, North African Front: Military takes over Egypt!

03 July 2013 (10:00 UTC-07 Tango)/24 Sha’ban 1434/12 Tir 1391/26 Ji-Wie (5th month) 4711

Reports from Egyptian TV news that the U.S. backed Egyptian military has place democratically elected President Mohammed Morsi under house arrest, and has taken over the government!

The government run newspaper, al-Ahram, has been taken over by the military and issued a report saying Morsi will be removed from office if he did not resign.

Reports that Morsi’s national security adviser says the military is now attacking Morsi supporters!  Egyptian newspapers reporting Muslim Brotherhood members are being arrested. This after Morsi pled with Egyptians not to take sides against each other.

The Egyptian military will run the country under a transitional government, for at least 12 months before new elections will be held.

World War 3, Martial Law U.S.A.: Russian troops to return to United States, in greater numbers!

02 July 2013 (14:21 UTC-07 Tango)/23 Sha’ban 1434/11 Tir 1391/25 Ji-Wie (5th month) 4711

In April 2012 I wrote about Russian airborne troops landing in the U.S. state of Colorado.  It was about domestic terror operations.

On 26 June 2013 the Russian Emergency Situations Ministry made the following announcement:

The Russian Emergency Situations Ministry and the USA Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) are going to exchange experts during joint rescue operations in major disasters. This is provided by a protocol of the fourth meeting of the U.S.-Russia Bilateral Presidential Commission Working Group on Emergency Situations and seventeenth meeting of Joint U.S.-Russia Cooperation Committee on Emergency Situations, which took place in Washington on 25 June.

The document provides for expert cooperation in disaster response operations and to study the latest practices.

In addition, the parties approved of U.S.-Russian cooperation in this field in 2013-2014, which envisages exchange of experience including in monitoring and forecasting emergency situations, training of rescuers, development of mine-rescuing and provision of security at mass events.

At the end of the meeting the parties expressed their satisfaction with the level of cooperation between the Russian Federation and the United States in the area of emergency prevention and response and agreed to develop it in order to respond efficiently to all kinds of disasters.

World War 3, Asian Front-Afghanistan: Karzai says Obama wants feudalism! More tax money down the hole! India reveals Great Game plans!

30 June 2013/21 Sha’ban 1434/09 Tir 1391/23 Wu-Wu (5th month) 4711

In Nangarhar Province, the Afghan National Army reports major battles with Mujahideen.   The ANA claims they killed 50 Mujahideen and wounded 70 others.

In Zabul Province, Sewri District, three people killed, two wounded, when their civilian vehicle drove over a landmine.

29 June 2013/20 Sha’ban 1434/08 Tir 1391/22 Wu-Wu (5th month) 4711

In Paktia Province, local government sources report a NATO/ISAF/ANA airborne assault on Mujahideen positions.  Four Mujahideen killed.

In Takhar Province, local government sources say a peaceful protest organized by a local Mujahideen Council was fired on by supporters of centralized government and local police forces.  Reports say there is now full on battles taking place between supporters of centralized government and Mujahideen.

President Hamid Karzai said the reason why the U.S. is now negotiating with Mujahideen is because they want to keep certain areas of Afghanistan in states of feudalism.  Karzai said the U.S. is willing to give Mujahideen total control of certain areas of Afghanistan.   Karzai also claims that the Obama administration is pushing him to sign a new military deal (Bilateral Security Agreement).  He says President Barack Obama gave him three months.   Apparently Obama wants the deal signed before the new President of Afghanistan is elected!

The External Affairs Minister of India, Salman Khurshid, accidentally revealed major war plans involving the domination of the energy resources of Central Asia.  He said the Great Game plan is to control the North-South corridor of Central Asia through domination of Iran and Afghanistan: “Of course, it does make Iran very critical…..it makes Afghanistan very critical……Afghanistan will then become a bridge for us to Central Asia and Iran as well.”

On the same day that United Kingdom’s Prime Minister David Cameron told afghans “there will be no British combat troops after the end of 2014”, an unnamed Ministry of Defence source says the U.K. has plans to keep troops incountry until 2020!  One source gave this statement: “We will leave our combat role next year, but we will still be needed for three to five years after that.”

United Kingdom’s top military man in Afghanistan, Brigadier General Nick Carter, says the U.S. should’ve started negotiations with Mujahideen (Taliban) when the U.S. first invaded in 2001: “Back in 2002, the Taliban were on the run. I think that at that stage, if we had been very prescient, we might have spotted that a final political solution to what started in 2001, from our perspective, would have involved getting all Afghans to sit at the table and talk about their future.”

The U.K. news media reporting that a memorial wall to Afghan veterans will be built using fines paid by Too Big to Jail banks caught in the LIBOR scandal.

28 June 2013/19 Sha’ban 1434/07 Tir 1391/21 Wu-Wu (5th month) 4711

In Kandahar Province, Panjwai District, local government sources say four Mujahideen were killed as they tried to ambush an ANA convoy.

In Farah Province, Bala Bolok District, local government sources said a suicide bomber tried to attack a military convoy.  Two civilians killed, six wounded.  However, Mujahideen said the attack was successful and two armored vehicles were destroyed and six NATO/ISAF personnel killed.

In Parwan Province, the U.S. Army is investigating the non-combat death of a Sergeant.  He was a construction engineer and was killed on Bagram air base.

Afghan Senator Belquis Roshan says the U.S. is supporting Mujahideen (Taliban) and peace is not what the U.S. wants: “In the presence of foreign troops, the people of Afghanistan would never have peace and independence. Now that the U.S. is trying to help the Taliban participate in the coming election, there would be no prosperity for our people too.”

The United States government is spending hundreds of millions of their taxpayer dollars (maybe it’s drug money, which would explain the massive increase in drug production?) on aircraft for the Afghan air force.  However, a Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction (SIGAR) report said all that money, and all those aircraft will be wasted because Afghanistan does not have the support network to keep those aircraft flying.   This only means that the U.S. government will spend more money it supposedly doesn’t have trying to build up Afghanistan’s aircraft maintenance and support crews.

In a sure sign that the U.S. has only made Afghanistan a hell hole, German news media reporting that 100 Afghan diplomats have defected.   Apparently their tours of duty in Germany were over, but they did not want to return to Afghanistan.

Business/Economics, U.S.

World War 3, U.S. Economic Front: Job losses & store closings 19-20 April 2013. What automotive sector recovery? NSA domestic spying company hit by spending cuts!

In New Jersey, North Bergen recycling went bankrupt.  Company officials pled guilty to illegal dumping and got hit with massive fines.

AM General laid off at least 350 people in Indiana!  Company officials blame the bad global economy on crashing Hummer/Humvee orders!  Yet, at the same time they claim there is a big demand for their military type vehicle, it’s just that the expected orders haven’t come in.

In Kentucky, automotive parts supplier, GECOM, laid off 85 employees.  Company officials blamed it on “…current and projected business needs…”, adding that for the foreseeable future “…only a handful of employees…” will be kept working.

In Tennessee, Volkswagen laying off 500 people!  Last year VW thought they were going to add 800 jobs to their U.S. Passat factory, but sales crashed!  VW officials say sales are only good in major metro areas, in the rest of the country sales are down.  And in a bit-o-irony, the Department of of Labor and Workforce is restructuring its Career Centers, and as many as 125 people could lose their jobs!

At least 180 people lost their jobs with L3 Communication Systems-West in Utah!  Company officials blamed Department of Defense spending cuts.  Maybe this is a good thing, as L3 is “…a leading provider of networked communication solutions for high-performance intelligence collection, imagery processing and satellite communications for the Department of Defense (DoD) and other government agencies. We provide high-data rate, wideband, secure, real-time communication systems for surveillance and reconnaissance.”  In other words they’re being paid to spy on you!  (for some reason hi-tech spying operations are setting up shop in the heart of Mormon-land, soon the World’s largest personal information collection center will be operational. It’s located in the Utah Army National Guard’s Camp Williams)

Publicly funded (meaning donations) KCET TV, in California, laid off 22 employees and eliminated five vacant positions.  It’s the result of a merger with publicly funded (donations) Link Media.  In June 2012 KCET posted a loss of $7.4 million USD.

More bad news for Disney owned Lucasfilm.  20 more people laid off in what is supposedly the last round of layoffs since the Disney takeover.

In Maine, SPX Communications Technologies ended antenna operations, laying off 57 employees.

The Puma athletic store in Pennsylvania closed down.

In Oregon, The Elephant’s Trunk toy store closed at the Salem Center Mall.

267 people out-o-work in Ohio, after Turf Products closed its Streetsboro operations!  Another 23 people laid off in the company’s distribution center.   Apparently the company made too many products (like lawnmowers) at other factories, and is calling a production halt.  ESCO Technologies closing its Aclara plant in Solon.  The company saw a 85% drop in profits for its 2nd quarter this year.  No word on how many people will be unemployed.

In Little Rock, Arkansas, Faux Pas closed after 20 years in business.  The owners of the fashion store decided it was time to change careers.

Wonderland Books shut down in Connecticut. The owners blamed competition from big name stores and the internet.

In Mississippi, Bayside Furniture & Appliances shut down.  The longtime family owners (since 1970) blamed the bad economy.

After 64 years Smith’s Gardentown Farms closed in Wichita, Texas.   The family owners blame the long drought, and hope to re-open when the rains return: “The drought has everyone worried. I think there were some misunderstandings about the [city’s] watering rules, but the drought is a reality. Much of our business depends on selling bedding plants in the spring to help get us through the summer and into the fall. Business has just been way off because people are guarded about the future, and rightfully so.”-Steve Smith

In New Mexico, the Albuquerque Public Schools District has lost $100 million since 2010, and is now looking at closing down several schools.  The district has already laid off 1000 employees since 2010!  One plan is to get rid of Middle schools (Junior Highs).  The irony is that the district just built two new schools!

The U.S. Department of Labor (DoL) doesn’t count the hundreds of layoffs involving less than 50 people each, in its mass layoff reports. It also doesn’t count all the little ‘mom & pop’ businesses that shut down.

World War 3: United Nations increases military spending for 2014, and you’re paying for it!

29 June 2013 (02:52 UTC-07 Tango)/20 Sha’ban 1434/08 Tir 1391/22 Wu-Wu (5th month) 4711

The member countries of the United Nations (which includes the United States) have agreed to spend $7.5 billion of their taxpayers’ money on military ‘peacekeeping’ operations for 2014.

That’s an increase of $200 million USD from the 2013 budget, mainly because of military operations in Africa and Syria.

The taxpayers of the U.S. are forced to provide 28% of the funding, while Japanese taxpayers provide 11% (in second place after the U.S.).

Internet Martial Law: United States expanding cyber attack operations, will include old school military strikes! UnAmerican Corporate America demands it!

28 June 2013 (12:54 UTC-07 Tango)/19 Sha’ban 1434/07 Tir 1391/21 Wu-Wu (5th month) 4711

U.S. Army General Martin Dempsey told the Washington DC think tank, Brookings Institution, that the Army will spend $23 billion U.S. tax dollars training 4000 new cyber attack personnel over the next four years.

The new U.S. cyber attack program will also “….secure 4G wireless network that will get iPads, iPhones and Android devices online by mid-2014.”

Dempsey claims that future cyber attacks against the U.S. “…could be as destructive as the terrorist attack of 9/11.”  In that case the U.S. will respond not just with cyber units but with old school military attacks.

Dempsey claims that cyber attacks against the U.S. have increased by 17 fold in the past two years.  He also says at least 20 countries have cyber attack units.

Dempsey partly blames the taxpayer funded build up of U.S. cyber attack units  on U.S. businesses who have not protected themselves “….adequately in cybersecurity.” 

A recent survey by Cyber-Ark Software polled 900 corporate executives about cyber security.  51% believed they were under cyber attack right now, 80% say cyber attacks are more damaging than an old school military attack!

“….DDoS [distributed denial of service] attacks have increased 600% over the last year!”-James Barnett, Venable law firm

Basically, unAmerican Corporate America is forcing the individual taxpayers to pay for a massive corporate cyber defense system run by the U.S. Army’s Cyber Command!

Martial Law Canada: Cops loot homes of flood victims, takes all their guns!

28 June 2013 (11:08 UTC-07 Tango)/19 Sha’ban 1434/07 Tir 1391/21 Wu-Wu (5th month) 4711

“We have seized a large quantity of firearms simply because they were left by residents……We just want to make sure that all of those things are in a spot that we control, simply because of what they are….”-Brian Topham, RCMP

“When people find out about this there’s going to be untold hell to pay!”-Brenda Lackey, High River resident

“This is the reason the U.S. has the right to bear arms!”-Charles Timpano, High River resident

Royal Canadian Mounted Police evacuated the town of High River, during recent floods, then they looted the homes for all personally owned guns!  The Mounties are keeping 13000 residents away from their homes despite the fact that flood water has dissipated (going on eight days now).

The Canadian cops said the residents can have their guns back when they prove they own the gun!  The crony cops also admitted they “forcibly” entered many homes to get the guns, which is a violation of Canadian Private Property rights!

Internet Martial Law: U.S. Army censors news sources!

28 June 2013 (09:52 UTC-07 Tango)/19 Sha’ban 1434/07 Tir 1391/21 Wu-Wu (5th month) 4711

The U.S. Army Network Enterprise Technology Command (NETCOM, part of Cyber Command) admits that it censors print news sources before soldiers are allowed to read it.  They call it “network hygiene”.

NETCOM officials say they don’t target specific internet newspapers, but use a program that “relies on automated filters”.   For example, articles about the ongoing NSA scandal are blocked out.
