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!

“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.

Internet Martial Law: U.S. schools publishing children’s personal school data in the Cloud!

28 June 2013 (09:35 UTC-07 Tango)/19 Sha’ban 1434/07 Tir 1391/21 Wu-Wu (5th month) 4711

“This information…I have no idea what it is, I have no idea who’s using it, I have no idea for what purpose!”-Karen Sprowal, concerned parent in New York city.

Some school districts across the United States are using computer programs that allows them to collate and make available on the internet all your child’s personal data.

Orwellian education officials say it’s all about “personalizing” your child’s learning.  However, the info being made available online is not just grades and the type of classes, but your financial info and child’s medical records, as well as any behavior issues.

Previous news media reports said schools would not share your kid’s data with third parties, but that has been proven false.  There is no law that prevents school districts from giving (selling?) third parties the personal data of students, and many do so.

World War 3, West Asian Front-Syria: UN demands combat cease on Golan Heights, Israel says it’s ready to invade!

28 June 2013 (23:55 UTC-07 Tango 27 June 2013)/19 Sha’ban 1434/07 Tir 1391/21 Wu-Wu (5th month) 4711

“What has changed here is that today we are carrying out an exercise in the Golan Heights which is not theoretical. The reality around us is changing and is volatile, and we must be ready accordingly.  I want the other side to know that when needed, we can move to any side, and I do not care that the other side hears this! I hope that we are not tested and that we meet any challenge.”-Binyamin Netanyahu, Prime Minister of Israel

The United Nations has renewed Disengagement Observer Force (DOF) operations in the Golan Heights.   The UN is also demanding that all combat taking place in the Golan cease.  Japan, Croatia and Austria have already withdrawn their UNDOF troops.  That leaves UNDOF troops from Fiji, India and Philippines.

Israeli Minister of Defense, Moshe Ya’alon, made this statement about current war games conducted by the Israeli Defense Force Golani Brigade: “Golani, as other fighting units in the IDF, may find itself called to a campaign in a short period of time. Therefore, this exercise, as with others taking place these days, has special significance, in this time and in this sector.”

Ya’alon also referenced Gaza Strip, which is nowhere near Golan Heights!

World War 3, Asian Front-Afghanistan: More proof the U.S. ain’t leavin’! More proof U.S. & U.K. behind illegal drugs, Iran says ‘I told you so!’ More proof of U.S. corruption!

27 June 2013/18 Sha’ban 1434/06 Tir 1391/20 Wu-Wu (5th month) 4711

In Helmand Province, Musa Kala District, a Mujahid sniper claims he killed a NATO/ISAF troop.  In Nad Ali District, reports that a NATO/ISAF tank was blown up by a landmine.  Two crew killed, two wounded.  Mujahideen say they ambushed a dismounted patrol in the same district.

Members of the Islamic Movement of Afghanistan Party are condemning plans by the United States to establish permanent military bases after the 2014 ‘pullout’.

In Kabul Province, Kabul city, the U.K.’s Guardian news source reports a booming housing market.  One driver is that apparently rents have dropped, however, the article points out that the money supporting such a “…lavish lifestyle has been funded by an influx of foreign money and the proceeds from drugs, which have enriched a tiny elite while most of the country still grapples with desperate poverty, malnutrition, illiteracy and some of the lowest-life-expectancy in the world.”

The Guardian also reported that many property developers in Kabul do not believe the U.S./NATO is leaving in 2014: “Everyone says the Americans are leaving but they are not. They have invested too much in Afghanistan. The current problems are just politics by the U.S. to help them negotiate their strategic pact.”-Hasan Ali Sakhizada, wealthy property developer

Red Coat Simon Cowl is jumping on the corruption bandwagon and taking his …Got Talent TV show to Afghanistan.

The U.S. Department of Defense stated they want to continue funding contracted propaganda mills in Afghanistan.   This despite a recent Government Accountability Office report that says such funding of propaganda is just throwing taxpayer money down the toilet!  The top private producer of propaganda in Afghanistan is the Leonie Group.  Last year the corrupt co-owner, Camille Chidiac, was suspended for using taxpayer money to launch an anti-news media propaganda campaign directed at USA Today!

It’s been revealed that $70 million U.S. tax dollars meant for agricultural development in Afghanistan has disappeared!  Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction (SIGAR) blamed the problems on USAID (U.S. Agency for International Development)!  SIGAR also said that farm equipment, like irrigation pumps and solar panels, ended up being used in the homes of elites!  (World War 3, False Flag Front: USAID a covert terrorist organization?)

A little history lesson: What was former Prime Minister of U.K. Harold Macmillan’s first rule of politics? Answer: “Don’t invade Afghanistan!”

In Paktia Province, Zormat district, Mujahideen report they ambushed a supply convoy.  They claim five trucks destroyed, one escorting military vehicle destroyed, and at least three people killed or wounded.

In Baghlan Province, Baghlan-e-Markazi District, Mujahideen captured a Afghan National Army (ANA) base.  The ANA then sent troops to take back the base, but after five hours of battle the ANA lost.  Mujahideen say they killed 13 ANA troops and wounded nine others.  They destroyed four vehicles and captured a large amount of weapons and ammo.  Two Mujahideen killed, two wounded.

The country of Georgia is now the top non-NATO country occupying Afghanistan, according to NATO.

USMC General James F. Amos says what military equipment the Marines can’t send back to the U.S. will be given away to other countries, or that “Anything that gets left in that country that has ‘USMC’ on the side will be purposefully left by General Dunford, or General Austin.”

The United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime reports that the U.S. controlled Afghanistan has broken another record year in illegal drug production.  In 2012 Afghanistan supplied 74% of the World’s illegal drugs!  Way to go U.S.A.!

In Iran, the National Security Commission accused the United Kingdom, as well as the United States, of being behind the explosive illegal drugs trade in Afghanistan.  Since the 2001 invasion, hundreds of Iranian border guards have been killed by drug traffickers out of Afghanistan.  Iran has spent at least $50 million fighting drug trafficking from Afghanistan in the past eight years.  Also, 100 metric tons of illegal drugs from Afghanistan were burned in public displays throughout Iran.  Officials condemned recent accusations from U.K. officials, that Iran is the one trafficking drugs to Europe, saying the U.K and U.S. are not doing anything to stop drug trafficking from Afghanistan: “Iran is at the front line of fighting narcotics, but countries involved not only don’t provide assistance to us, they refuse to provide the basic equipment such as sniffer dogs and electronic equipment!”-General Ahmad Reza Radan, Commander of Iranian Police Forces

In Kabul Province, Bagrami District, the U.S. SIGAR says two schools built by U.S. funded contractors are so unsafe they threaten the lives of the students: “Specifically the school’s interior and exterior walls appear to be insufficiently constructed to hold the weight of the concrete ceiling.”-John Sopko, SIGAR

Iranian Deputy Energy Minister, Alireza Daemi, announced Iran will build a water treatment plant in Kabul city.  Unlike the U.S. which throws taxpayer money at contractors with any oversight, Iran strictly controls their projects in Afghanistan, which include roads and power lines.

In United States, a federal appeals court has rejected the appeal of a U.S. contractor convicted of trying to smuggle $150000 out of Afghanistan.  He tried to ship the taxpayer cash from Bagram airbase to Kansas, in a DHL box.

In Germany, the U.S. Army’s 2nd Cavalry (Cav-all-ry, not Calvary. Calvary is the hill Jesus was crucified on) Regiment held a deployment ceremony.  The regiment’s 2000 soldiers have been ordered back to Afghanistan!  They will be based in Kandahar Province.

In Ghazni Province, reports that four Polish-NATO troops killed, two wounded, apparently after their armored vehicle hit a landmine.

In Logar Province, Poli Alam city, a car bomb rammed a regional police headquarters, as many as 25 people killed, including top police commanders.

In Kabul Province, Kabul city, eight suicide bombers/attackers killed themselves and several government security guards when they attacked the Presidential Palace.  Mujahideen said the target was the CIA office inside the compound, along with two U.S. Generals.

In Kandahar Province, Arghandab District, a bus ran over a landmine killing nine people and wounding three others.

In Uruzgan Province, Deh Rawud District, six Afghan National Police were killed when they drove over a landmine.   They were on their way home from operations against Mujahideen.

The U.S. Army admitted the Mujahideen were right when they said they killed U.S. soldiers on 23 June: In Paktika Province, Sar Rowzah District, the U.S. Army says a Specialist who’s home state was California, was killed by explosion.  In Paktia Province, Zormat District, the U.S. Army admitted a Sergeant who’s home state was Maine was killed by explosion.

World War 3, Asia-Pacific Front: U.S. Army cuts will not apply to units poised for war with China!

The U.S. Army is reducing its size over the next four years.  However, U.S. Army units operating in the Asia-Pacific Theater of War (APTW) will not be affected.  It seems U.S. DoD officials have other plans for those Army personnel.

Only two U.S. Army Brigades in the European Theater of War will be cut.   Brigades in the U.S. states of Washington, Texas, Kansas, Colorado, North Carolina, New York, Kentucky and Georgia will be de-activated.

U.S. Army officials say the reductions are the result of the Budget Control Act of 2011.  APTW Brigades will be enhanced with equipment and personnel from those Brigades that are de-activated.

The U.S. Department of Defense announced it will increase the number of cyber attack units in the Asia-Pacific Theater of War from the current ten, to 27 attack units over the next three years.

Commander of U.S. Pacific Command, Admiral Samuel Locklear, stresses that U.S. forces are most vulnerable on their cyber flanks.  This suggests that U.S. high tech military equipment must be easy to hack.

The People’s Hero, Edward Snowden, has revealed that the United States is behind most international cyber attacks!

World War 3, Martial Law U.S.A.: Canadian diplomat says U.S. citizens complicit in their own destruction!

“To preserve its perilous dominance the U.S. today is arming against its own people….”-Peter Dale Scott, former English Professor at the University of California Berkeley, May 2012

Also a former Canadian diplomat, Peter Dale Scott, attended a meeting in Russia in May 2012.  He was commenting on U.S. foreign policy and potential threats to Russia.  He also realized that the people of the United States have backed way off their anti-government protests since Obama became president, and are seemingly complicit in the federal government’s totalitarian agenda.

Peter Dale Scott: What particularly concerns me is the relative absence of public response in America to a long-term Pentagon-CIA agenda of aggressive military hegemonism – or what I will call “dominationism.” No doubt many Americans may think that a global pax Americana will secure a period of peace, much like the pax Romana of two millennia ago. I myself am confident that it will not: rather, like the imperfect pax Britannica of a century ago, it will lead inevitably to major conflict, possibly nuclear war. For the secret of the pax Romana was that Rome, under Hadrian, withdrew from Mesopotamia and accepted strict limits to its area of dominance. Britain never achieved that wisdom until too late; America, to date, has never achieved it at all.

And so very few in America seem to care about Washington’s global domination project, at least since the failure of massive protests to prevent the Iraq War. We have seen much critical examination of why America fought in Vietnam, and even the American involvement in atrocities like the Indonesian massacre of 1965. Authors like Noam Chomsky and William Blum have chronicled America’s criminal acts since World War Two, but without any prominent concern about the recent acceleration of American military expansiveness. Only a few, like Chalmers Johnson and Andrew Bacevich, have written about the progressive consolidation of a war machine that now dominates America’s political processes.

It is also striking that, until quite recently, the nascent Occupy movement has had little to say about America’s unprovoked wars; I am not sure they have even targeted the militarization of surveillance, law enforcement, and detention camps which are so important a part of the domestic apparatus of repression that threatens their own survival – the so-called “continuity of government” (COG) measures by which America’s military planners have prepared never again to have to deal with a successful American anti-war movement. 

…….I hope that Americans will mobilize against American dominationism, and call for a policy declaration, either from the administration or from Congress, that would:

1) explicitly renounce past Pentagon calls for “full spectrum dominance” as a military objective for American foreign policy,

2) reject as unacceptable the deeply-ingrained practice of preemptive wars,

3) renounce categorically any US plans for the permanent use of military bases in Iraq, Afghanistan, or Kyrgyzstan, and

4) recommit the United States to conducting future military operations in accordance with the procedures set out in the United Nations Charter.

Scott published in 2003 a book that established that U.S. foreign policy is about propping up the Nixon created U.S. petro-dollar system, and that the military uses drug trafficking to fund ever escalating operations. The book is called Drugs, Oil and War.
