British Empire Owns the United States: Forces U.S. taxpayers to fork over $150 million for spy data!

02 August 2013 (19:39 UTC-07 Tango 01 August 2013)/25 Ramadan 1434/11 Mordad 1391/26 Geng-Shen (6th month) 4711

According to leaked U.S. National Security Agency (NSA), dated 2010, the United States Department of Homeland Security/NSA gave the United Kingdom $150 million taxpayer dollars in the past three years for ‘intelligence’!   This is according to the British news source The Guardian.

The money is going to the U.K.’s Government Communications Headquarters (GCHQ).  According to the leaked NSA documents, a GCHQ official calls the U.S. payments an “investment”.

The documents show that U.S. taxpayers are funding half of the British spying operations in Cyprus.  Remember Cyprus?  That’s the country that suddenly went belly up, and massive bailouts of the government took place, while many people had their bank accounts seized to pay for the bailouts!  It’s all connected to the recently discovered massive petroleum field in the Mediterranean (known as Levant Basin Province, aka Leviathan).

Ironically, even though the U.S. is paying the U.K. for spy data, according to the NSA documents 60% of the British Empire’s internet and phone spying is actually being done by the U.S. NSA!

World War 3, Asian Front-Afghanistan, 15-16 July 2013. More proof the British-U.S. Empires are behind boy sex slaves & opium! More proof the U.S. ain’t leavin’!

Afghan news media reporting that an Afghan National Army (ANA) soldier has escaped from prison.  He was arrested last week after killing a Slovak-NATO soldier, and wounding at least three others.  The reports say his escape was facilitated by other ANA soldiers!

ISAF reports that a U.S. led NATO troop was killed by “direct fire” in eastern Afghanistan.  Mujahideen have reported killing several U.S./NATO personnel in eastern provinces, but they don’t give enough details regarding how they were killed.

Despite U.S. news media reports saying Mujahideen attacks are down, the Afghan Defense Ministry admitted they are actually up!  Afghan General Zahir Azimi also admitted that currently the Afghan government forces can not handle the increased attacks by Mujahideen.  This is in direct contradiction with ISAF General Heinz Feldmann, who said Afghan government forces were ready to take over from U.S./NATO.

Another ISAF commander, Major General Dieter Warnecke, revealed that U.S. led NATO/ISAF has military plans for Afghanistan past the 2014 pullout date: “Much of this work will continue into the NATO Resolute Support mission in 2015.  I’m convinced about it. Our strong international commitment to this nation and to the Afghan people will endure.”

Officials with the Afghan Defense Ministry say they’ve caught Pakistani troops/insurgents who’ve infiltrated the ANA using fake ANA ID cards!  Afghan General Taj Mohammad Jahid made the announcement on Radio Free Europe.

In Ghazni Province, a 12 years old boy blew himself up with a bicycle bomb near an ANA/NATO military convoy.  He was killed, an Afghan cop was wounded.

In Helmand Province, Nawzad district, Mujahideen say they destroyed a Georgian/ISAF tank, killing the crew.  And in the United Kingdom/United States controlled area, in Sangin town, a British journalist revealed institutionalized sexual abuse of boys by police.  The issue has many Canadian soldiers in therapy.  Canadian soldiers were told to ignore it, and they claim even U.S./U.K-NATO personnel took part in the child sex crimes.  A U.S. Marine Corps Major tried to confront local police about it but was rebuked.  The British journalist spent six years documenting the war under the U.K./U.S., including the sex crimes.  He has released a documentary called This is What Winning Looks Like!  By the way, Sangin town is also considered a major hub of opium production!

In Baghlan Province, Baghlan-e-Markazi District, NATO/ISAF forces conducted home invasions.  One person killed, two kidnapped.

In Kunar Province, reports that people are abandoning their villages because of repeated U.S./NATO airstrikes.

In Nangarhar Province, Jalalabad city, a motorcycle bomb exploded, killing two people and wounding three.  One person killed worked for Afghan National Directorate of Security (NDS, domestic spy agency) and the other person killed was a Afghan National Police (ANP) officer.

The Afghanistan National Archives revealed they have 7000 historical documents pertaining to Iran, documents not currently found in Iran.  Afghan officials say they will send Iran digital copies of those documents.

World War 3, Asian Front-Afghanistan, 13-14 July 2013.

In Logar Province, Mohammad Agha District, Afghan and NATO/ISAF forces killed ten people in Mazgin village.  Afghan government officials called them militants, and said the militants had attacked the Ainak copper mine.  Two of the militants were foreigners.   In Kharwar District, Mujahideen say they shot down a NATO/ISAF helicopter.

In Nangarhar Province, reports that a military convoy hit a massive landmine.  Afghan government officials say a tank was destroyed and U.S. medivac ‘copters were called in.  Mujahideen claim the explosion killed the crew in the tank.

In Kandahar Province, Arghistan District, Afghan border police say they killed 12 Pakistani militants who attacked them.

In Paktia Province, reports that 12 people were killed by NATO/ISAF airstrike.  In Jani Khail District, 26 contracted security guards joined the Mujahideen.  The defections were the result of Mujahideen releasing four captured security guards/mercenaries unharmed.

Afghanistan and Turkmenistan signed onto the Turkmenistan-Afghanistan-Pakistan and India (TAPI) gas pipeline project.  It’s a 30 years deal.

In Helmand Province, Camp Bastion, BBC reporting that British Red Coats have begun pullout operations. The Theatre Logistics Group is scrambling to get military vehicles prepped for the long journey home to United Kingdom.  The BBC reports that the British retreat actually started in October 2012!

According to the BBC, 21 British Red Coats killed themselves while on duty in Afghanistan in 2012.   Another 29 Afghan veterans killed themselves back home in Merry Ol’ England.

A Transparency International report said the U.S. backed Afghan justice system is the most corrupt government organization in all of Afghanistan.  Of course the U.S. backed Afghan Supreme Court denies it.

Confusing reports: The Afghan Foreign Ministry says they’ve officially suspended post 2014 Bilateral Security talks with the Obama administration, yet, a spokesman for President Hamid Karzai says a special committee will be formed to continue such talks.

World War 3, Asian Front-Afghanistan, 11-12 July 2013.

In Baghlan Province, Burka District, Boorkeh city, Mujahideen claim they shot down a NATO/ISAF helicopter.  U.S. officials would only confirm that one of their ‘copters made a “hard landing”.  Mujahideen say it was a U.S. Chinook helicopter, and that 27 personnel on board were killed.  The district governor did say the U.S. forces were conducting raids in the area.

In Helmand Province, Nad-e-Ali District, an explosion killed three civilians.  When police showed up to investigate another bomb exploded.  Two cops killed, two wounded.  In Gerishk District, locals reported NATO/ISAF airstrikes killed three eight years old children.

The European Union’s special envoy for Afghanistan, Vygaudas Usackas, said peace talks will not show any progress until 2015.

Iran and Afghanistan have agreed to cooperate in fighting U.S. backed drug smuggling and terrorism: “A peaceful and stable Afghanistan can play an efficient role in the promotion of trade…”-Abbas Araqchi, Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister for Asia-Pacific Affairs

The United Kingdom announced that it wants to pullout 5200 Red Coats by the end of this year.  However, Defence Minister Philip Hammond said they will be prepared to send troops back into Afghanistan if “additional surges” were needed.

Former U.S. diplomat, Robert Blackwill, warned that Afghanistan could become a proxy war between India and Pakistan, after the 2014 NATO/ISAF pullout.

World War 3, Asian Front-Afghanistan, 09-10 July 2013: Obama threatens to give Karzai what he wants! Iran hangs U.S. backed drug smugglers!

The dumb Obama administration has threatened to do what President Hamid Karzai has been asking for; pull out all U.S. personnel.  Obama was trying to play tough with Karzai, who recently refused to continue with post 2014 troop level negotiations after it was revealed that Obama was negotiating directly with Mujahideen for peace, without involving the Afghan government.  If anybody’s been following my Afghan updates, they would know that Karzai has been demanding full withdrawal of U.S. forces for several years now.  He says the U.S. is the reason for the ongoing violence in Afghanistan.

On the same day, the Mujahideen closed their office in Doha, Qatar.  It’s was that office that was revealed to be the place where Obama officials were going to talk peace with Mujahideen.

In Iran, 12 U.S. backed drug smugglers from Afghanistan were hanged.  As many as 5000 Afghans are in Iranian prisons, most charged with drug trafficking.  Drug smuggling is punishable by life in prison, or death, in Iran.  Drug smuggling from Afghanistan to Iran has skyrocketed since the U.S. invasion at the end of 2001.

In Uruzgan Province, the former district governor for Char Chino District was assassinated by Mujahideen.  The assassins escaped.  Officials said the former district governor had tried to avoid contact with government officials for the past year.

In Kandahar Province, Slovak/NATO troops were shot at by a Afghan National Army (ANA) soldier, at Kandahar airbase.  Slovak military officials reported that one Slovak was killed and six wounded.  The ANA soldier was arrested.  In another report, the provincial governor said three U.S./NATO troops at the airbase were wounded, after an argument with an ANA soldier.   Another report said three Czech/NATO troops were also attacked!

In Herat Province, Obe District, at least 17 people were killed, five wounded after their bus ran over a landmine.

In Helmand Province, Khanshin District, two people killed, three wounded, after they drove over a landmine.  In Musa Kala District, 10 ANA troops joined the Mujahideen.  And after 20 days of attack by Mujahideen, the ANA withdrew from their base in Sangin District.

U.S. Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction (SIGAR) revealed that the United States government has spent $34 million U.S. tax dollars on a massive headquarters complex that will probably never be used!

In Paktika Province, Barmal District, an ANA soldier joined the Mujahideen then shot and killed three ANA soldiers while they were sleeping.

In Kunduz Province, Dashti Archi District, U.S. supported Afghan government contracted security forces murdered three civilians who refused to pay a tax on agricultural produce.

In Paktia Province, Chamkani District, 10 ANA soldiers joined the Mujahideen.

In Ghazni Province, Mujahideen claim they prevented a planned NATO/ISAF offensive by striking first.  They say they attacked a military convoy that left Ghazni city for the offensive, killing or wounding 19 NATO/ISAF personnel, and destroying four armored vehicles.  Mujahideen launched several attacks on the convoy, the last one lasting four hours.  Three Mujahideen killed.

 Baghlan Province, Adarab District, seven Afghan National Police (ANP) joined the Mujahideen.

Zabul Province, Seyuri District, reports that NATO/ISAF forces invaded homes in the Shah Beal village.  Two civilians killed.

World War 3, Asian Front-Afghanistan, 07-08 July 2013: Corrupt U.S. contractor refuses to pay Afghan sub-contractors!

Major battles in Maidan Wardak, Kabul, Kunar, Jawzjan, Nangarhar, Baghlan, Kunduz, Faryab, Uruzgan, Logar, Ghazni, Farah, Helmand and Paktia provinces.  Mujahideen claim they killed 30 Afghan National Army (ANA) soldiers.  Afghan government officials claim they killed 100 Mujahideen.  Afghan government officials added that U.S./NATO air strikes were called in.

In Parwan Province, Bagram airbase, reports that two groups of ANA soldiers turned their guns on each other.  Three people killed, several wounded.

In Maidan Wardak Province, Sayed Abad District, Mujahideen say they destroyed 19 supply vehicles and killed 14 people.  Mujahideen say their ambush of the U.S./NATO supply convoy took place at several points through out the district.  One engagement lasted three hours. One Mujahid killed, one wounded.

Afghan Major-General Mohammad Sharif Yaftali, admits that Mujahideen numbers have increased by 15%.  He says there are at least 5000 Mujahideen in seven southeastern provinces.  He also says there are increased foreign fighters helping the Mujahideen, mainly from Pakistan and Chechnya.

In Kandahar Province, an Afghan interpreter who was working with U.S. Special Operations Forces (SOF) was arrested in connection to the kidnapping and torture deaths of Afghan civilians.  U.S. SOF was behind the war crimes, a mass grave was found next to an abandoned U.S. SOF base, which contained the bodies of some of the kidnapped Afghans.  Afghan police say the arrested interpreter is seen in a video taking part in the torture deaths of the victims.

Despite Indian government officials denying Afghanistan lethal military  aid, reports say the two governments are still in discussions for India “to contribute lethal weapons” and to “enhance” military cooperation.

Iranian officials say they are holding political discussions with the government of Afghanistan: “There are issues over which Tehran and Kabul need to regularly hold talks and be in touch about them. General relations between the two countries will be discussed…”-Abbas Araqchi, Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister for Asia and Pacific Affairs

In Ghazni Province, Deh Yak District, two people killed, and three people wounded, including the provincial high peace council chief, when a remote detonated bomb exploded.  In Khogyani District, Mujahideen claim to have killed 19 U.S./NATO/ISAF troops during an ambush of a military convoy.  In Maqur District, reports that NATO/Afghan forces conducted a home invasion, killing three people.

In Baghlan Province, Burqa District, reports that NATO/Afghan forces raided a Madrasa and kidnapped three students.

After announcing big funding for Afghanistan, Norway is now backing off.  Norwegian officials are now using the excuse of failed Afghan reforms to get out of promised taxpayer funding for the Afghan government: “Norwegian authorities note with disappointment the slow and uneven progress that has characterized the follow-up to the commitments made.”

More proof the corruption is on the U.S. side: In Kabul Province, Kabul city, Afghan civilians protested the U.S. owned contractor Supreme Group.  The Afghans work for a subcontractor called Afghan Mansoor Jalal Logistics and Transportation Company (MLC).  The subcontractor says Supreme Group is refusing to pay them!  The owners of MLC says Supreme Group owes them $20 million USD!  Supreme Group is a U.S. taxpayer funded contractor providing logistical support to military units.  Supreme Group is also involved in a no-bid contract scandal involving military food supply.

World War 3, Africa Front: The U.S. Empire Beast gets bigger! How is the U.S. taxpayer funding this?

22 July 2013 (22:25 UTC-07 Tango 21 July 2013)/14 Ramadan 1434/31 Tir 1391/15 Ji-Wie (6th month) 4711

The U.S. Africa Command (AFRICOM) will begin war games with South Africa later this week.  At least 5000 personnel will be involved.

South African Navy (SAN) Captain, Jaco Theunissen, explained the purpose: “We are exercising to do a human support intervention….where you will fight against rebel groups.”

Captain Theunissen also stated that military medical units are training to provide healthcare on a large scale to civilian populations in war environments.  In other words, the United States and its empirical allies are definitely using the military as “international aid agencies”, as stated concerning the current massive war games with Australia.

Medical “human support intervention” is already underway in Liberia, called Operation Onward Liberty (OOL).  According to AFRICOM, OOL has been ongoing since 2010.  U.S. Air Force Major, Joshua Latham, revealed the goal is to take OOL outside of Liberia: “…then you can begin operations to serve other people, whether it be other nations or individuals….”

A former commander of AFRICOM supports the creation of the precedent setting UN combat brigade known as Intervention Brigade: “….the Intervention Brigade is, as I believe it is postured to be, is an element of MONUSCO, I think that’s the right structure….I do think that the force is necessary.”-General Carter Ham, U.S. Army

General Ham stated that it was the African Union that asked for the U.S. to get involved: “We were asked by Africans to support an African-led activity….”

Ham also said “….we don’t go anywhere or do anything which we have not been invited by the host-nation government.”  Yet, an African reporter with the Mail and Guardian countered by stating “…most other countries are hostile politically to AFRICOM…”

AFRICOM now has a special operations force called Commander’s In-Extremis Force.  It’s being used a a type of rapid reaction force.   Another African reporter questioned the possible redundancy of AFRICOM: “….doesn’t it seem that AFRICOM is duplicating everything, similar exercises of other [U.S.] agencies that are on the continent, because there are loads of these agencies.  So isn’t AFRICOM duplicating with planned session of exercises….?”

Ham responded by saying that budget constraints make it difficult to operate redundant missions.  This led to another reporter asking “….with all the budget cuts happening in the States, is AFRICOM likely to survive?”

Ham ensured them that AFRICOM was not going to killed by the bad economy in the States, but will make adjustments as necessary.  According to AFRICOM, U.S. taxpayers fund the operation to the tune of about $275 million USD per year (which is actually cheap compared to other U.S. military operations).  But how can the U.S. government fund any military operations when it’s bank is busted?  (Afghan opium anyone?)

The General admitted the U.S. is competing, maybe even cooperating with China for resources in Africa: “…we are competing for economic position.  I think we’re competing for influence…….we’ve kind of chosen different paths to achieve our goals.  But….I wouldn’t characterize it….as any type of adversarial relationship.”

The now retired General Ham said to keep your eyes on South Africa, Botswana, Angola and Zimbabwe.

World War 3: Massive U.S.-Australian war games, aimed at China? Your tax dollars aimed at Australia, for the benefit of the Elites!

21 July 2013 (11:40 UTC-07 Tango)/13 Ramadan 1434/30 Tir 1391/14 Ji-Wie (6th month) 4711

“War isn’t about making peace, war is terror.”-Robin Taubenfeld, protestor

The biannual Talisman Sabre war games are underway, and there’ve been problems.  Last week two bombed up USMC Harriers were unable to drop their load on the intended target, due to uncleared “hazards” on the ground, so they unloaded them on the Great Barrier Reef.  The planes were low on fuel, and their training bombs could have prevented a safe landing.

This year’s Talisman Sabre games are reported to be the biggest yet, with about 28000 U.S. and Australian personnel taking part (don’t waste your time trying to get an accurate headcount, I’ve seen several different Aussie and U.S. reports with numbers that differ by several thousand).  USN officials say they invited China to take part, but big whoop, they’ve always invited China to the party, at least since 2009!

At the end of last year some Australian news sources reported that the Talisman Sabre games are directed against China. But one USN official said the U.S. actually wants to make China a partner in dominating the region: “I think it would be misguided to say its focused on any one country, what it’s focused on is increasing the stability in the region and thereby increasing the prosperity. People are going to more willing to invest their money and commit to a region if they know stability is there.“-Vice Admiral Scott Swift, U.S. Navy

(so this is proof the U.S. military is the tool of the elites because, after all, who has the money to throw away on investing into an entire region of the World?)

Australia might be playing off the U.S. and China, it’s been revealed that Australian military leaders have been discussing the possibility of their own war games with China.  But the real reason the U.S., and the country formerly known as New Holland, want to play ‘army’ with China is simple: “We need to know the Chinese……”-General David Hurley, Australian Defence Force

One Aussie news source said “Brigadier Bob Brown says the exercise is also used to prepare…..international aid agencies for humanitarian crisis.”  Mmmm, what international aid agencies?   Are the western elites trying to portray their militaries as ‘aid agencies’?

For the people of Queensland the war games are being called a “rocket” booster for their ailing economy, at the expense of taxpayers: “Tens of millions of dollars is injected into the local economy via accommodation, via cafes, restaurants and food outlets, the retail sector as well as the supply chain.”-Mary Carroll, Capricorn Enterprise

False Flag (?) Bio-War: Confirmation, malaria vaccine causes U.S. soldier to massacre Afghan civilians!

20 July 2013 (15:24 UTC-07 Tango)/12 Ramadan 1434/29 Tir 1391/13 Ji-Wie (6th month) 4711

“The company [Roche] assessed the event of Homicide as medically significant.”-Case ID: 8504150, FDA-Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS)

In March 2012, United Kingdom news media reported that U.S. Army Staff Sergeant Robert Bales had been under the influence of a controversial malaria vaccine when he supposedly killed at least 16 Afghan civilians in their homes (Afghans insist there was more than one U.S. soldier involved) .  Then, at the beginning of July 2013, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration confirmed the British reports!

According to the FDA, at the end of March 2012 a pharmacist filed a Adverse Event report.  The vaccine/treatment used on Bales is Mefloquine Hydrochloride (aka Lariam, Mephaquin or Mefliam).  It’s made by a company called Roche.

According to the U.S. National Library of Medicine there are numerous bad side effects of the drug, including “Feeling confused….Seeing or hearing unusual things….Unusual behavior or thoughts of hurting or killing others or oneself.”

Bales attorney says he has military records showing Bales was given Lariam: “We know that he was given Lariam while in Iraq.  We just don’t have a complete set of medical records…..He can’t help us. He just says he took ‘whatever they gave me.’”-John Henry Browne

Having spent time in the military I can confirm that it is common for personnel to not question military medical officials.

Remington Nevin, a former U.S. Army doctor, says the Army’s own studies showed the vaccine to be dangerous, and ordered that it not be given to personnel who had suffered head wounds.  The Army also ordered the documentation of the administration of the drug.  Nevin says both orders were routinely ignored.

On 17 January 2012 the Assistant Secretary of Defense, Joathan Woodson, made this admission: “Some deploying service members have been provided mefloquine for malaria prophylaxis without appropriate documentation…and without proper screening….not all individuals have been provided the required mefloquine medication guide and wallet information card, as required by the Food and Drug Administration.”

It was Remington Nevin, along with The Military Times, that used the Freedom of Information Act to force the FDA to reveal the March 2012 Adverse Event report.  The Adverse Event was first reported to the drug maker Roche.  Officials with Roche thought it severe enough to forward to the FDA: “We took a look at it, and we decided we needed to submit it.”-Chris Vancheri, Genentech/Roche Group

Note that the Assistant Secretary of Defense statement was made two months prior to the Adverse Event report.

Government Evil: U.S. backed South Korea forces entertainers to perform for soldiers!

18 July 2013 (13:21 UTC-07 Tango)/10 Ramadan 1434/27 Tir 1391/11 Ji-Wie (6th month) 4711

Recently it was revealed that Republic of Korea forces Korean entertainers to perform for military units.  Entertainers are conscripted as ‘entertainment soldiers’ and serve with the Defense Media Agency.

Now, the Rok Defense Ministry was forced to end such a program after scandals publicly revealed the program.  The scandals involved favoritism and bribery of government officials and entertainers.

In the U.S. backed southern Korea, all men must serve two years in the military.  Despite South Korea having a higher ‘democracy’ rating than even the United States, the people have been under Martial Law since 1972, declared by U.S. backed dictator Park Chung-hee.  Today, the new dictator of RoK is his daughter, Park Geun-hye.

Also, POVs (Privately Owned Vehicles) could become property of the ‘democratic’ government of Republic of Korea, if full blown war were declared.

Remember who pulls the strings in the Martial law controlled South Korea; the United States.  The U.S. has a lot of experience with martial law.
