Pat Robertson’s “God”, Salafi Muslims and Demon Spirits
By Ali Baghdadi
On February 25, 2013, Mr. Pat Robertson, a Christian Anglican leader, surprised us with a new heavy weight “revelation”. Responding to an email from a troubled young woman, he told the whole world that bought or donated old sweaters and other clothes and objects could be attached to demon spirits. Those scary unforeseen stubborn “creatures” normally cause people a lot of trouble and suffering. Washing and cleaning these items won’t convince wicked spirits to leave.
Fortunately, a prayer over old things we obtain as secondhand before we bring them home or a donation to Mr. Robertson’s “club” will help get rid of these demons. In the United States of America, the leader of the “civilized” world, there are other preachers who share Mr. Robertson views and convictions. They are men and sometimes women of “god”. They possess unimaginable power. With a touch of their hand, people with untreatable diseases or injuries are immediately “healed”.
Calling Out the Misleaders of the Phony ‘Progressives’ and the Fake U.S. ‘Left’
By Larry Pinkney
“It is both sad and simultaneously horribly fascinating to observe so many euphorically pinning their hopes and dreams on Barack Obama, a chameleon who speaks liberally of ‘change’ but who is, himself, beholden to the very same blood-sucking corporate vampires (including Lockheed and others) who are ravaging the people of America, and the entire planet…Many Black Americans and our Brown and Red sisters and brothers will, I fear, come to be deeply disappointed in Barack Obama, once he demonstrates who he really is. There will be no peace or justice under an Obama presidency. Even the majority of White Americans, with the exception of the corporate liberals and conservatives, may yet come to realize that Obama’s interests are corporate interests; they are not the needs and interests of everyday people, who represent the overwhelming majority of this nation and the world.”

A good cup of coffee to go with your police shootouts and burning cabins, but was it really Dorner who was killed?
by Ruth Hull
The morning of 2/12, a big African-American man in Big Bear stole a purple Nissan SUV, owned by Jay of Jay's Tree Trimming Service. (Lt Foy, Fish and Wildlife thought this car belonged to two maids.) Around 12:45, while following two school buses, the vehicle passed a sheriff's car and a Fish and Wildlife car. What is interesting is the difference in stories. Fish and Wildlife Public information officer Andrew Hughan, who was kind enough to draw a diagram of the action, had the suspect driving towards Big Bear, but Sacramento Fish and Wildlife's Lieutenant Patrick Foy had him going down Highway 38 away from Big Bear. After this reporter pointed out the discrepancy they solidified behind Lieutenant Foy's version. According to Public Information Officer Andrew Hughan of the Fish and Wildlife Department, the purple SUV passed the school buses as did the officer's cars.
PIO Hughan stated that after driving past Glass Road, the officers realized they had lost him and turned back. The SUV crashed and the suspect reportedly commandeered a silvery–white truck owned by Rick Heltebrake, an onsite ranger for the Boy Scout campground. Reportedly the truck was taken at rifle-point. According to most versions, the suspect drove the truck away from Highway 38 and then turned around.
Meanwhile, two other Fish and Wildlife cars came from the East and turned on Glass Road. According to Officer Hughan and Lieutenant Patrick Foy of the Fish and Wildlife Department in Sacramento, the game warden in the first of the second set F&W cars believed he visually identified Dorner as he passed him in a car. The second F&W car was fired upon and hit (with about 5 or more rounds).
Washington Whitewashes Israeli Murder
by Stephen Lendman
Why not. It whitewashes its own. Washington is a rogue terror state. So is Israel. It denigrates non-Jews. It's waged war on Palestine for decades. It's guilty of high crimes and misdemeanors. Its rap sheet makes serial killers look saintly.
On May 31, 2010, Israeli commandos committed premeditated murder. They killed nine humanitarian activists. They did so in cold blood. They executed them in international waters. Doing so also constituted piracy.
Activists were trying to bring vitally needed aid to besieged Gazans. It included food, medicines, medical supplies, clothing, educational and construction materials, kitchen utensils, mattresses, toys for children, and other items.
Eighteen-year old Turkish-American Furkan Dogan was on board. Israel marked him for death. A UN Human Rights Council (HRC) investigation determined that he and eight other Turkish nationals were murdered in cold blood.
Understanding Israeli Settlements
by Stephen Lendman
They violate international law. They prioritize land theft. They prevent peace. On January 31, the UN International Fact-Finding Mission on Israeli Settlements in the Occupied Palestinian Territory condemned them for good reason.
They deny Palestinian self-determination. They comprise "part of an overall pattern of (Israeli) breaches."
They benefit Jews exclusively. They institutionalize racist segregation, inequality, dispossession, and occupation harshness.
Hollywood-Style History
by Stephen Lendman
Hollywood's complicity with Washington is longstanding. Movie moguls are duplicitous. The only thing they like like better than good films are good deals.
Washington's requests are prioritized. Scripts feature pro-Western propaganda. "Operation Hollywood" explains.
Daily Variety/Hollywood Reporter David Robb's book
It began post-WW 1. The 1927 silent film "Wings" starred Clara Bow. It launched Gary Cooper's career. It was about two WW I fighter pilot friends. It won Hollywood's first best picture award.

Sequestration Sorrows for the Extremist Republicans
Michael Collins
May you have incompetent, offensive enemies.
President Obama and the congressional Democrats have the luck of the Irish, truly. They've already won the Battle of the Fiscal Cliff due to the good judgment of the people. That judgement takes facts into consideration. The sequestration process is a blunt instrument wielded by a Frankenstein process that accounts for nothing sensible in terms of solving the main concern of the public; the seriously flawed, destructive economic cycle that is dragging us to a place nobody sensible wants to go. The PEW survey to the left shows that a majority think the economy in general (60%) and the military in particular (55%) will suffer due to this pathetic process of histrionic policy making.
That puts the wisdom of the people in line with the judgement of over 95% of leading economists surveyed recently who say that "growth is likely to be negatively affected by the automatic federal spending cuts that are scheduled to kick in Friday." It makes sense. The economy is weak, unemployment, all those out of work seeking work, is around 22%, and many citizens are one paycheck away from their own fiscal cliff.
Here are some highly revealing polls and headlines from around the country late Wednesday, early today.
News Services Fake Dorner Manifesto, Quick-Shooting Police Mistake Little Women for a Big Man
by Ruth Hull
Chris Dorner
Warning to all women. If you are young or old, and especially if you are unarmed, watch out for the police as they may mistake you for a fully armed big muscular male former police officer and shoot you.
Ask Maggie Carranza and Emma Hernandez, both of whom were mistaken for Chris Dorner and shot by the police. Neither were armed. It didn't matter than Emma was 71 and a much smaller build than a big muscular guy. The police have made it clear that it is shoot to kill and shooting the wrong people is preferable to shooting nobody at all.
What odds do you think the real Chris Dornan has of being brought in alive? In your own self-defense, you might want to call LAPD media relations at 213 486 5900 and ask that they bring Dorner in alive and STOP SHOOTING PEOPLE before you wind up their net accidental target.
Obama's Asia Pivot
by Stephen Lendman
In late 2011, Obama prioritized reasserting America's Pacific presence. His Asia pivot was announced.
It involves advancing America's military footprint. Doing so aggressively is planned. China's growing economic might and military strength are targeted. So is checking Russia at the same time.
Containment is policy. Cold war politics is back. Unchallenged global dominance is prioritized. Anything goes intends to maintain it.
War in a part of the world hostile to invaders is possible. Vietnam echoes remain audible. So are Afghanistan ones today. China's a far more formidable adversary. So is Russia.
It's hard imagining any country challenging them militarily. Fools rush in where angels fear to tread. America hasn't won a war since WW II. Lessons weren't learned.
The Khojalu “Genocide” Fabrication by Baku
By The Keghart Editorial Board
Azerbaijan is waging a propaganda war to spread misinformation.
Original Kosovo victim photos falsified as Khojalu "genocide". Left- photo edited by Azerbaijan, Right- Original photo from Kosovo
People following the Armenian/Azerbaijan conflict cannot miss the Azerbaijani campaign to convince the world that the three-and-a-half hour midnight attack on Feb. 25, 1992 by Nagorno-Karabakh Republic (aka Artsakh) Self-Defense Forces on Azeri -held Khojalu was “genocide.”
