Obama & the U.S. Congress are Zionist lovers! Statement proves the U.S. doesn’t care about Human Rights! Israelis say it’s not enough, they want full blown War!!!

“When resolutions are brought up at the Human Rights Council, we oppose them. When Israeli diplomats feared for their lives in Cairo, we intervened to help save them. When there are efforts to boycott or divest from Israel, we will stand against them. When the chips are down I have Israel’s back.”-Barack Obama, President of the United States, statement made at AIPAC Conference, March 4, 2012

Israeli lawmakers responded to Obama’s AIPAC speech by basically saying it wasn’t enough!   One rabid Israeli politician said: “We are facing an existential threat….If Israel doesn’t “bluster” [a reference to a phrase used in Obama’s AIPAC speech], the U.S. will also be in danger, because Iran’s missiles will reach them too. Israel is doing everything possible to keep the world safe, and it’s unfortunate that the White House doesn’t see things the way we see them here.”-MK (Member Knesset) Ayub Kara, Likud Party

Another rapid Israeli said Israel should go it alone: “Looking back at the way the United States criticized Israel for destroying the nuclear reactor in Iraq, Israel must make its decisions based on its own good judgment.”-MK (Member Knesset) Danny Danon, Likud Party

Red Horse & World War 3: Pentagon admits to helping Yemen government repress pro-Freedom rebels!!! Rebels blow up military transport plane

“The mujihadeen killed a CIA officer on Thursday while he was in Aden province after tracking him and determining he was cooperating with the Sanaa government.”-Yemen Freedom Fighter’s text message

U.S. Defense Department officials admitted the United States is actively helping the pro-U.S. government of Yemen kill the people of Yemen!!!

This after anti-U.S. rebels identified, tracked down and attacked a Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) officer!  Pro-Freedom demonstrators say the CIA agent was killed, the pro-U.S. Yemen government says he was not killed.

Also, Yemen government security officials admitted that a U.S. ‘security’ team, which was training Yemen forces in how to put down their own people, had been shot at by rebels.

Until now the United States has denied having personnel on the ground in Yemen.  The U.S. and United Kingdom, have been supporting the repressive Yemen government for several decades.

At the end of February 2012, U.S. President Obama announce a two pronged plan to support the Yemen government.  In June 2011, Obama announced $200 million in taxpayer funded aid for the despotic government of Yemen.  That followed the defection of hundreds of Yemen’s military personnel (Yemen Republican Guards) to the rebels (video showed military personnel protesting alongside the rebels).

The people of Yemen have been openly fighting their pro-U.S. government since March 2011. That’s when the now former president ordered troops to shoot to kill peaceful protestors (told you peaceful protest doesn’t work).

On March 4, 2012, a military cargo aircraft exploded on an airbase near Yemen’s capitol city of Sana’a: “An Antonov aircraft blew up in mysterious circumstances while it was on the tarmac at Dulaimi air force base.”-airport employee

Then another horse came out, a fiery red one. Its rider was given power to take peace from the earth and to make men slay each other.

Government Evil: United States makes the official list of Human Rights violators, Corporate America to be sued for Human Rights violations!

The Obama Administration, and the Republican dominated Congress, love to use data from the United Nations to justify attacking other countries, like Libya, and soon Syria.   But, what about when the UN points the finger at the United States for Human Rights violations?   Will our leaders attack themselves?

Recently the UN’s Human Rights Council began its 19th session in Switzerland.  Of course Syria is topping their list of concerns, but guess who else is making their list (again)?  The United States!

“Over the past year, I have also expressed concerns about the rights of detainees held at Guantanamo Bay, and my deep disappointment at the failure to close this detention facility.”-Navi Pillay, UN High Commissioner for Human Rights

One of the big upsets is President Barack Obama’s reneging on his promise to close Guantanamo Bay prison.  The UN documented that in March 2011, Obama stated to the international community that the United States would close down the torture facility known as GITMO.

Sri Lanka even pointed out that they’ve closed all but one of their military run prisons, since 2011.

Some UN member countries accused the United States of violating the Human Rights of immigrants.  Ecuador even demanded action: “…time to end impunity for those who continuously violated the human rights of migrants.”

Others demanded that the United States be investigated for Human Rights violations.

“The United States was not a guardian of human rights and should reflect on its own record in committing human rights violations inside and outside the country before pointing at other countries.”-Right of Reply from North Korea

“China was gravely concerned about the failure of the United States to close down Guantanamo Bay and urged the United States to review its own human rights record before criticizing others.”-Right of Reply from China

Russia said that the so called interventions by the United States and Europe violated Human Rights: “…acts intended to protect human rights did themselves sometimes lead to mass violations, including deaths of civilian populations.” 

Cuba pointed out that the United States was violating the Right to Express yourself, by controlling the internet. They claim that only 30% of the World’s population has access to the internet, and that internet governance is directly controlled from the U.S.

Norway said the U.S. dominated internet is being used by governments to violate Human Rights.

Others pointed out an increasing desire to criminalize the use of the internet, the United States being one of those countries doing so!

William Echikson, a representative from Google, admitted that his company routinely “takes down content” and “discloses information” when ordered to by U.S. courts.

UN officials are also watching the U.S. Supreme Court case, in which people are  demanding they be allowed to sue corporations under a 223 year old U.S. law (Alien Tort Statute), that’s apparently been ignored.  The law allows people to sue international corporations for Human Rights violations, among other things.

The latest reports indicated that the pro-Corporate America judges would deny such cases!

Government Incompetence: Despite U.S. oil sancitons on Iran, Royal Dutch Shell just bought 1.5 million barrels of Iranian oil

“We do not comment on our trading activities. Shell complies with all applicable sanctions.”-Royal Dutch Shell statement

An Iranian 270,000 ton supertanker, called Delvar, just docked in Singapore.  It’s delivering a huge load of oil for a major European/U.S. oil company: Royal Dutch Shell.

Before docking in Singapore, the Delvar transferred 60,000 tons of oil/condensate to a Chinese ship.

Despite the above recent quote from Royal Dutch Shell, on February 2, 2012, the CEO of the company said: “We will comply with the sanctions and we will therefore get our oil from somewhere else.”-Peter Voser, Chief Executive Royal Dutch Shell

Yet, a Singapore official confirmed that Royal Dutch Shell just bought 1.5 million barrels of Iranian oil: “Yes, Shell bought it. There is no other reason for the ship to be anchored at Bukom.”-unnamed ship broker

The U.S./European imposed sanctions against Iranian oil.  Also, on February 21, Iran banned oil sales to European Union countries, unless they signed new contracts under Iranian terms.  The Iranians have also stopped oil shipments to Britain and France. Royal Dutch Shell is partly owned by the British (about 40%).

Royal Dutch Shell gets about 100,000 barrels per day of Iranian oil, for Europe, and another 100,000 bpd for Japan.

The fact that Royal Dutch Shell (5th largest oil and gas company in the world) is still doing business with Iran indicates they’ve signed onto the new Iranian oil deal.  However, some oil traders do not think so: “I would not be surprised if they continued to ‘lift’ a little bit, until it becomes illegal to do so.”-unnamed oil trader

World War 3: Iran discovers new, huge oil fields!

“The newly discovered oil field must be considered among the biggest fields ever discovered in Iran!”-Seyyed Mahmoud Mohaddes, National Iranian Oil Company

On March 3, 2012, Iranian oil officials announced that not only have they discovered the largest oil field in Iran’s history, they’ve found several new oil fields!

Drilling has already started, and there are at least three more new oil fields.  Iran already has the second largest proven oil reserves in the world. Just more reasons for the West to get their hands on Iran!

World War 3: Russia joins West’s sanctions against Iran, freezes Iranian Embassy accounts!

The Russian bank, VTB 24, froze the accounts of Iranian embassy personnel in Russia.

“The bank said that this was an order from their top management, and they couldn’t do anything about it.”-Seyyed Mahmoud-Reza Sajjadi, Iranian Ambassador to Russia

Officials with VTB 24, a division of Russian state owned VTB, tried to downplay any connection to the U.S./European sanctions against Iran, by saying the move was because of a lack of profits being made off the Iranian accounts.

World War 3: Canada orders troops to stand down, despite increasing taxpayer spending on the Afghan war

“I think for many years we just took it for granted that we were a training base and we didn’t have to face the loss of people. Then on the Easter weekend we lost six and then two more.”-Fay Tidd, Mayor of Oromocto, New Brunswick, Canada

From now until the end of 2012, about 950 Canadian troops from New Brunswick will be deployed in Afghanistan.

“We keep reassuring everybody it’s a peacekeeping mission. I don’t know if we’re trying to convince ourselves or who?”-Ken Weir,  St. Vincent de Paul Catholic Church

Meanwhile, the Canadian Department of Defense has ordered 45 Canadian police officers and 70 diplomats working in Afghanistan, to stop what they are doing.  Canadian military trainers have also been ordered to stay away from Afghan government forces.  This is all because of the burning of dozens of Qur’ans by five U.S. troops!

The Canadian mission in Afghanistan is supposed to end in 2014,  yet it’s been revealed that the Canadian government is increasing spending for the military operation.  One report says spending will increase by at least another C $500 million.

World War 3: More suicide attacks on NATO, Afghan official assasinated, new Pakistan offensive

On March 2, 2012, in Dund district of southern Kandahar Province, a suicide car bomber attacked a NATO convoy.

At least four U.S./NATO/ISAF forces, one Afghan police officer, an Afghan civilian and and Afghan interpreter were wounded.  The “Taliban” immediately claimed responsibility (as I’ve said before, those attacks where no one claims responsibility are suspicious), and claimed that 15 U.S. led forces were killed.

In the city of Tarinkowt, in southern Uruzgan Province, unknown militants assassinated the local Afghan Intelligence official.  “Taliban” are not claiming this one.

In another incident, in which the “Taliban” are not commenting on, a man was arrested as he was heading to Kandahar.  He’s accused of supplying weapons for a planned attack against Afghan government forces.

And despite the ignorant U.S. media, which spreads the lies that Pakistan isn’t doing enough to help fight the War on Terror, Pakistan has launched a new offensive in the Kyber region.  Already there are 10 dead Pakistani forces,and 23 dead “Taliban” militants, after an early morning firefight on March 2, 2012!

World War 3: Obama to send more U.S. forces to Afghanistan

March 2, 2012, a report says the Department of Defense (DoD) has decided on a new round of troop deployments to Afghanistan.

The DoD decision was actually announced on February 16!

The U.S. Army has selected four Brigade Combat Teams (BCT), one separate brigade and an Army command, to be deployed between April and August 2012.

It will involve approximately 1,460 active component officers and senior non-commissioned officers, along with approximately 300 DoD civilians. The official purpose is to train Afghan government forces.

The new deployment will be made up of personnel from: 2nd BCT, 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault), Fort Campbell, Kentucky.  2nd BCT, 3rd Infantry Division, Fort Stewart, Georgia. 3rd BCT, 4th Infantry Division, Fort Carson, Colorado. 4th BCT, 1st Armored Division, Fort Bliss, Texas. 162nd Infantry Brigade, Fort Polk, Louisiana.  And 1st Army, Rock Island Arsenal, Illinois.

World War 3: U.S. civilian doctors about to head to Afghanistan, to help Afghans devastated by 30+ years of U.S. inspired war!

“I expect to see very extensive injuries. I expect to see burn injuries, burn injuries that have gone on to heal inappropriately.”-Louis Riima, Nassau County Burn Unit

Doctors in New York are joining a mission to help Afghans who’ve been horribly wounded, no thanks to the 10 plus years of occupation by the United States (and more than 30 years of war instigated by the U.S.).

The mission is headed by a group called Mission: Restore.

“Afghanistan is a country of 29 million people with over 30 years of continuous war and devastation.  Of those 29 million, there are only 2 self-trained plastic surgeons who are practicing in the capital of Kabul.  Afghanistan ranks as the least developed country in the eastern hemisphere and in need of serious infrastructure and health service development.”-Mission: Restore

Keep in mind that the 30 plus years of “war and devastation” is the fault of the United States.  Former U.S. National Security Advisor, and Trilateral Commission co-founder, Zbigniew Kazimierz Brzezinski, admitted that it was U.S. foreign policy that got the Soviet Union to invade in 1979!
