World War 3, East Asian Front: Billions of U.S. taxes spent on new military HQ in Korea! More proof of coming war with China!

18 July 2013 (13:06 UTC-07 Tango)/10 Ramadan 1434/27 Tir 1391/11 Ji-Wie (6th month) 4711

U.S. Forces Korea (USFK) will be replaced by KORCOM (Korea Command).

KORCOM, along with United Nations Command forces, will be headquartered in a new $10.7 billion USD facility located at Pyeongtaek, currently where the U.S. Army’s Camp Humphreys is now.  U.S. Army officials said the new massive HQ can operate for 72 hours without re-supply.

The shift to KORCOM is dependent on southern Korea taking over direct military operational control (OPCON) during wartime.  However, today the Republic of Korea Defense Ministry asked for a delay in transfer of OPCON from the U.S.

The OPCON and KORCOM shifts were to go into effect at the end of 2015.  RoK defense officials say they’re holding off on taking over OPCON because they believe the military situation in East Asia is escalating faster than expected, and RoK forces are not yet ready to take the lead with OPCON.

Government Evil: Samantha Power & the United States are the tools of Israel! U.S. is anti-Palestinian!

18 July 2013 (12:21 UTC-07 Tango)/10 Ramadan 1434/27 Tir 1391/11 Ji-Wie (6th month) 4711

“Sam had been the point person at the White House on all issues related to Israel at the UN.”-Ben Rhodes, deputy national security adviser

Barack Obama’s nominee for Ambassador to the United Nations has revealed who she, and Obama, really work for; Israel!

Here’s some of what the zionist told the U.S. Senate:

“The United States has no greater friend in the world than the state of Israel. We….have a special relationship with Israel.”

“And just as I have done as President Obama’s UN adviser at the White House, I will stand up for Israel and work tirelessly to defend it.”

“The Security Council seat is one that has eluded Israel, despite its many contributions across the years, and I commit to you wholeheartedly to go on offense, as well as playing defense on the legitimation of Israel, and we’ll make every effort to secure greater integration of Israeli public servants in the UN system.”

“We need to deter the Palestinians in any way we can…”

Implied by one U.S. official, Samantha Power was actually nominated by Israel: “Samantha has always made herself available and accessible to many Israeli officials visiting Washington for coordination on our efforts at the United Nations.  And that has produced strong relationships, an ease of communication, and a lot of mutual trust that will continue when she is UN ambassador.”-Dan Shapiro, U.S. Ambassador to Israel

Keep in mind that it’s interesting that U.S. Senators are apparently concerned Power wouldn’t properly represent Israel!   Is Israel a taxpaying member of the United States?

World War 3, Asian Front-Afghanistan, 05-06 July 2013: Germany to win biggest slice of $3 trillion pie! Cops killing cops! NATO child sex crimes witnessed by Canadians!

In Paktia Province, Gardez city, local officials say a U.S. airstrike killed two security guards and wounded one.  They were guarding a construction site.  Local officials say the airstrike was called in by U.S. forces on the ground.

In Nuristan Province, Mujahideen launched coordinated attacks against government checkpoints.  Reports say at least 20 Mujahideen were killed or wounded, while 21 Afghan government forces were killed or wounded.

In Helmand Province, Gerishk District, Mujahideen say they attacked a U.S./NATO FOB with eight mortar rounds, as U.S./NATO personnel abandoned the eight years old Forward Operating Base.

In Faryab Province, Qisar District, Mujahideen claim to have liberated the Bazaar Shakh area.  Three Afghan government troops killed, one wounded.  One Mujahid was shot dead.  Also, in Pashtoon Kot District, three days of battles left at least 55 people dead.

In Paktika Province, Sharana city, Mujahideen attacked an Afghan military convoy with machine guns and suicide bombers.  15 government personnel were killed and four vehicles destroyed.  Of course, two suicide bombers also killed.

In Kunar Province, Surkani District, Mujahideen claim to have killed three CIA agents and wounded two others, as well as destroy an armored vehicle.  The CIA operates the Counterterrorist Pursuit Team (CTPT)

Pakistan claims that Afghanistan fired 50 artillery rounds on Angoor Adda village in South Waziristan.  At least five people wounded, and 30 homes damaged. This claim comes as the New York Times says Afghan President Hamid Karzai wants U.S. personnel to remain not to fight Mujahideen, but to help fight Pakistan!

India has rejected Afghanistan’s request for weapons.  India is willing to supply the Afghan government with non-lethal military aid.

German news source, DPA, said companies from India, United Arab Emirate, United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Poland and Turkey are vying for control of Afghanistan’s mineral resources.  In the next seven months contracts worth $20 billion USD will be finalized.  However, the untapped natural resources of Afghanistan are estimated to be around $3 trillion!  Germany is looking to be the top contract winner: “We have intensified our cooperation with Germany. There are already a number of German consulting companies active in Afghanistan.”-Wahidullah Shahrani, Afghan Minister of Mines

The Afghan Interior Ministry said “Afghan National Security Forces conducted a series of cleanup operations in Baghlan, Faryab, Ghazni, Kunar and Paktia provinces, killing nine Taliban militants and wounding two others. Six more armed men were also arrested over the past 24 hours.”

In Uruzgan Province, 12 cops were killed, five wounded when a suicide bomber blew himself up in a dining facility.  The suicide bomber was a cop turned Mujahid!

In Kandahar Province, Spin Boldak District, a suicide bomber from Pakistan killed at least one cop, and wounded two cops and six civilians.  Some reports from the U.S. say dozens of people were killed.

A journalist from Denmark concluded that the western media is lying about what is really happening in Afghanistan: “We saw pictures of progress, hairdressers, middle-class Afghans enjoying coffees and food in new restaurants….there were unfortunately suicide bombers….but there were no military offensives, with tanks attacking neighborhoods or planes bombing villages…..The war in Afghanistan has had very severe consequences for the civilians in rural Afghanistan where the media are not present. There are far more victims there of aerial bombardments…..it casts a very disturbing light on how the media work with stereotypes which serve to dehumanize people….”

Earlier this year, the Danish journalist released a documentary film about the war from the point of view of Afghan villagers in Helmand Province.  It’s called My Afghanistan-Life in the Forbidden Zone.

In Farah Province, two days of battles in several districts resulted in six armored vehicles destroyed, at least 20 people killed, 15 wounded.  Mujahideen claim to have captured a UAV (drone)!   There are reports that several homes were destroyed and civilians wounded.

In Logar Province, Muhammad Agha District, a four hours battle raged between Mujahideen and Afghan and U.S./NATO forces.  Reports say at least 11 Afghan/NATO troops killed, nine wounded.  Three Mujahideen were killed.  Mujahideen claim they captured three armored vehicles and three ‘satellite’ radios.

Canada is investigating claims that their soldiers were ordered not to report homosexual crimes involving Afghan boys known as Dancing Boys.  A Canadian news source says they interviewed “…three Canadian soldiers, three Canadian Forces chaplains, and a lieutenant colonel who all said they had either first- or second-hand information about the alleged sexual attacks in Afghanistan.”

The sex crimes were first reported five years ago when Canadian troops began seeking counseling after witnessing the sex crimes against children.  The crimes involve not only Afghan government personnel, but U.S./NATO/ISAF personnel as well.  The Canadian military says the investigation is taking so long because it is “complex”.

The UN’s Integrated Regional Information Networks (IRIN) recently quoted a opium trafficker who stated that the rising opium trade under U.S. eyes reaches all the way to top officials: “You have to have strong connections to be an opium trader.  Some time ago some of my friends were caught with drugs by border police. They contacted [top] officials and were released.”-unnamed drug dealer

The U.S. state of Louisiana welcomed home 65 members of their Army National Guard’s 756th Area Support Medical Company.

World War 3, West Asian Front: Israel launches ICBM!

“This morning, Israel conducted a launching test from the Palmachim base of a rocket propulsion system…”-Israeli Ministry of Defense

Gee, when North Korea wants to test a rocket the World has a hissy fit, but no body says a thing about Israel’s nuke capable ballistic missile test!!!

On Friday morning Israel launched what is believed to be the Jericho ballistic missile with a range of at least 5000 kilometers (3100 miles).   Israel can hit most of Europe, North Africa and they can hit anywhere in the Middle East.  But not even a peep out of the U.S. main stream news media!

World War 3, Asian Front-Afghanistan, 02 July 2013: Cell phone companies in bed with Mujahideen! Afghanistan of today is the result of a hundred years of attempts to ‘Westernize’ the country.

In Nangarhar Province, Qaraghahi area, a female U.S. Army combat documentation specialist was killed, supposedly in a non-combat incident.  The U.S. Army is investigating.  In Mohmand Darah District, Mujahideen say they destroyed a tractor trailer hauling an armored vehicle.

In Farah Province, Pusht-e-Koh District, three civilians killed when they drove over a landmine.  Also, two civilians were shot dead by unknown attackers.

In Kabul Province, Kabul city, Mujahideen attacked the compound of a U.S./NATO military contractor.  Four suicide bombers blasted their way in.  Then gunmen attacked.  Afghan government forces battled the attackers for at least an hour.  All attackers killed, and four of the contractor’s security guards and two civilians were killed.  Other reports claim it was a NATO/ISAF compound.

In Kandahar Province, Mianisheen District, locals say a U.S./NATO airstrike left four people dead and dozens wounded.  No comment from ISAF.

The Centre of Research on Globalization is publishing articles explaining why modern Afghanistan has seen such turmoil since the beginning of the 20th Century.  The first article talks about radical reforms meant to westernize Afghanistan by ending their feudal system at the beginning of the 20th Century.  Then came the radical western style property reforms that resulted in the 1978 revolution, followed by the Soviet invasion in 1979.

Iranian news media revealed that several telecommunications companies, from Arab countries, are bribing Afghan Mujahideen not to destroy their cell towers.  A rep from Etisalat admitted “Each antenna costs $30,000, but bribing the Taliban and continuing their activities will bring better revenues for company officials and, hence, they accept Taliban’s demands.”  Iranian intelligence says it’s this cooperation between cell phone companies and the Mujahideen that has greatly increased Mujahideen ability to coordinate attacks.  Essentially the cell phone companies are providing free service to the Mujahideen.

Pakistan, the World’s largest refugee hosting country, announced they will allow the 1.6 million Afghan refugees to stay longer, by issuing new Proof of Refugee (PoR) ID cards.  And the arrogant people of the U.S. doesn’t think Pakistan does enough.

World War 3, Asian Front-Afghanistan, 01 July 2013: One thousand Afghans died for the United States in June!

In Parwan Province, Charikar city, a suicide bomber attacked the governor’s compound.  At least three people wounded.

In Baghlan Province, Burka District, Mujahideen assassinated the district police chief and his body guards with a remotely detonated bomb.  Locals say the U.S. backed police chief was oppressive.

In Kunar Province, Forward Operating Base (FOB) Joyce, U.S. soldiers are packing up equipment, rushing to get the hell out: “This is what leaving looks like. This base in southern Kunar province is overrun with a mad crush of soldiers and equipment preparing to hit the long road home.”-Stars and Stripes, military news media source

In Nangarhar Province, government officials say they arrested a suicide bomber from Pakistan.  The U.S. Army’s FOB Connolly was turned over to Afghan government forces.   U.S. commanders on the ground say the Mujahideen always return after the U.S. runs them out of town, it’s because the people of the area don’t trust the government: “A large contingent of the population aren’t supporters of GIROA [Government of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan] because they lost their livelihood.”-Captain Justin Liesen

A recent survey by International Institute for Democracy showed that 48% of Afghans support negotiations with Mujahideen, and almost all Afghans do not trust the U.S. backed centralized government.

In Kandahar Province, Maiwand District, Mujahideen claim to have ambushed a U.S. military convoy.

USMC General Joseph Dunford said “We are no longer conducting unilateral operations. We conduct security operations, route clearing and retrograde operations.”

North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) is trying to convince Azerbaijan to take part in post 2014 military missions in Afghanistan.  Back in May Azerbaijani officials publicly stated they had no desire to join NATO.

NATO announced that June was the deadliest month, so far this year, for NATO/ISAF forces.

The Afghan Interior Ministry announced that 299 Afghan National Police (ANP) and local police were killed last month!   618 were wounded!  At least 180 civilians were killed as well!  753 Afghans (Mujahideen) who oppose the U.S. backed government were killed, 357 wounded, 305 captured!  And the arrogant people of the U.S. don’t think the Afghans are suffering enough!

Corporate Bio-War: Did BP’s Gulf of Mexico oil spill create human eating bacteria? One person dead, three wounded! Giant Dead Zone emerging!

07 July 2013 (14:06 UTC-07 Tango)/28 Sha’ban 1434/16 Tir 1391/30 Ji-Wie (5th month) 4711

“….we’re virtually on the verge of something that could end up becoming a deadly pandemic.”-John Waterman, former professor of anatomy, trained for biological warfare with U.S. Army Medical Command

In the past week, at least one person has been killed, three wounded by flesh eating bacteria, after fishing or wading along the Gulf of Mexico (for some reason some local news sources are reporting they were swimming).  It was reported by the Louisiana Department of Health and Hospitals.

The gram-negative bacteria is called Vibrio vulnificus, and infects through existing wounds on your body, or ingestion.  Health officials say the four people had wounds on their skin when they got infected.  The man who died was fishing from a boat.  Another fisherman got infected when he was cut by a fishing hook.  One man cut his foot on an oyster reef, and the fourth man was reported as having Gulf water splash on him.

One man is still in the hospital.

Louisiana health department’s beach monitoring program has been testing the water at 25 locations, to find out if the levels of the bacteria are higher than normal.  Usually people with healthy immune systems can fight off Vibrio vulnificus.

It is fact that British Petroleum sprayed massive amounts of GMO (genetically modified organism) bacteria onto the massive oil spill caused by the Deepwater Horizon disaster, in 2006.

Was it the GMO bacteria nick named Synthia (because it’s a synthetic bacteria created using viruses)?  Some analysts warned that the GMO bacteria would affect the naturally occurring bacteria in the Gulf of Mexico, or replicate out of control.  For years now there have been reports about the expanding and evolving Blue Plague in the Gulf of Mexico, things like fish found with two mouths, biologists reporting bacteria that has never been found in the Gulf before the BP disaster, “…evidence of bizarre sickness in the phytoplankton and bacterial communities.”, persistent skin rashes on people being caused by bacteria that are not affected by antibiotics, etc.

Even BP official Mike Utsler admitted to the U.K. news media that “There is a new form of microbiology that is attacking this plume and using it as a food source.”   And that was in 2010, four years after the spill!

There have been many warnings from officials in health care, science, EPA and even some members of the U.S. Congress, but for some reason the U.S. main streamer news media, and the majority of public officials are ignoring the ongoing disaster in the Gulf of Mexico:

“Within a matter of months, the bacteria completely removed that methane. The bacteria kicked on more effectively than we expected.”-David Valentine, University of California Santa Barbara

“It would take a superhuman microbe to do what they [BP] are claiming.”-Samantha Joye, University of Georgia

“Oil-eating bacteria produce bio-films…..studies have found that bio-films are rapidly colonized by other Gram-negative bacteria, including those known to infect humans.”-Riki Ott, marine toxicologist, 2010

“This is like a major bacterial storm. It could be the reason we are seeing a variance of symptoms in different individuals. In some people, we see respiratory complications, while in others we see skin or GI symptoms. I think it is due to a multitude of colonized bacteria, which may have been triggered by BP’s disaster.”-Allison Schmidt, retired RN, 2010

“We are undertaking a huge uncontrolled experiment with the entire Gulf. They [EPA] have fallen down on the job very substantially because they allowed BP to use dispersants. Even when they told BP not to use dispersants they allowed BP to ignore their advice.”-Jerrold Nadler, U.S. congressman from New York, August 2010

“We knew going into this, and the EPA knew, that this mixture is highly toxic to many, many species. There is a whole weight of literature.”-Susan Shaw, Marine Environmental Research Institute, August 2010

“They [BP] are trying to spin this limited piece of information to make it look like dispersants are safe and that the Corexit dispersant is safe.”-Hugh Kaufman, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, 2010

Now, researchers with the University of Michigan and Louisiana State University are warning of a record breaking Dead Zone in the Gulf of Mexico.

It could be as large as 13777 square kilometers (8561 square miles, the size of New Jersey)!

It’s being caused by record breaking algae blooms, which are feeding off the record use of farm chemicals/“nutrients” (due to the fact that GMO crops have produced super insects) that runoff into the Gulf.  Those algae are then eaten by the new GMO affected bacteria, and that process then destroys the oxygen in the water, killing off most of the marine life!

World War 3, North African Front: Military officially in control of Egypt! Morsi out, martial law in!

03 July 2013 (13:09 UTC-07 Tango)/24 Sha’ban 1434/12 Tir 1391/26 Ji-Wie (5th month) 4711

At 13:00 hours UTC 7 Tango time, the government run newspaper, al-Ahram, announced that democratically elected President Mohammed Morsi had been officially deposed by the U.S. backed Egyptian military!

U.S. backed General Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, giving a press conference, explained that the military ousted Morsi on the grounds that he did not head the will of the people.  The Egyptian Constitution has been suspended.  Al-Sisi says a new transitional government will be made up of technocrats!

The U.S. backed general (who consulted with Pentagon officials yesterday and last week) said anymore violent protests with be dealt with harshly by the military.  He appointed the chief justice of Egypt’s constitutional court as transitional president.

There are continued reports that military units are surrounding pro-Morsi demonstrations in Nasr and Giza cities.

Reports that democratically elected President Mohammed Morsi is missing.  Earlier there were reports that the Obama backed military put him under house arrest.

Egyptian military denying reports that they’ve fired on pro-Morsi supporters, as well as denying military coup.  However, reports and pics of army personnel deploying in Nasr City, where there are a lot of pro-Morsi demonstrations.

Reports and pics of army personnel blocking access to Cairo University.  Reports that military units are staging around the perimeter of Cairo.  One analyst noted that no (or very few) police forces have been seen deploying with military units.  Reports that Egyptian courts told police that they would not be prosecuted for joining the overthrow of democratically elected Morsi.

Al Jazeera reporting that Egyptian military deploying around pro-Morsi demonstrators only.

The government run newspaper, al-Ahram, continues to report that the U.S. backed military will run the country for at least 12 months.  Egyptian military says it will make official public statement soon.
