Countdown Special Comment: The President Of Hypocrisy

By Logan Murphy | CrooksandLiars.com

In light of President Bush’s disgraceful presser today, Keith Olbermann decided to make a Special Comment on tonight’s Countdown and wow, did he make the most of it. Olbermann blasts the president for his cowardly and un-American behavior of pimping General Petraeus as a political hack and hiding behind him to deflect criticism.

To say that Keith took the president to the woodshed would be an understatement.

Unable to 'win', Bush Re-names the Enemy

The Existentialist Cowboy

Don Rumsfeld said that you go to war with the army you have --not the army you might want. Bush, losing his war against an enemy he didn't want simply re-named it. As a National Intelligence Estimate revealed that terrorism had gotten worse since 911, Bush renames an insurgency (against which it was losing) "al Qaeda in Iraq" against which he hopes to win. Re-naming is easier than winning. The GOP rationale goes like this: if the GOP can change the terminology, a war lost on the ground might yet be won in the focus group. It's the GOP way.

$200 Dollar a Barrel Oil Is Bilderberg Plan To Destroy Middle Class
Elitists use peak oil scam, market turmoil, threat of Iran war to hike profits, torpedo middle class

By Paul Joseph Watson | Prison Planet

The global elite are conspiring to send oil prices crashing through the $200 dollar a barrel mark as part of an organized agenda to hike profits, bring about a global economic crash and torpedo the middle class, and they're not afraid to attack Iran as a means of achieving their goal.

Crude oil prices returned to near record high prices today after having surged past the $80 a barrel benchmark on Thursday.

Now there is serious debate about oil crashing not just the $100 dollar, but the $200 dollar a barrel level in the next two years.

Kabbalah Dizzy Madonna Treks to Israel

Kurt Nimmo Blog

As a sad commentary on the fact much of America is seriously brainwashed by decades of propaganda and feel-good myths about the outlaw state of Israel, witness Madonna, her head filled with Kabbalah mysticism, embracing one the most scurrilous war criminals in the world, Shimon Peres, who is usually portrayed as the “dove” of Israeli politics. And yet, a mere two months ago, president Peres addressed “a memorial ceremony for Zeev Jabotinsky, the revered founder of Betar and Revisionist movement—the forerunner of the Likud party,” according to IsraCast. “At the service on Jerusalem’s Mount Herzl, President Peres spoke of how even David Ben-Gurion had exaggerated the rift between the Revisionists on the Right and Mapai on the Left when it came to the Greater Land of Israel.” In short, there is little difference between the Jabotinskyites and Mapai in Israel—both are fanatically in favor of “Greater Israel,” that is to say the murder and ethnic cleansing of the Palestinians.

Mystery Trader To Collect On Financial Meltdown?
Suspicion increases about so-called Bin Laden trades as markets tumble after bank run

Paul Joseph Watson | Prison Planet

A run on the Northern Rock bank in Britain has increased the possibility that a mystery trader could stand to collect around $2 billion should a panic send markets tumbling during the course of this week, as investors have predicted.

Last month, we reported on the mystery trader who risks losing around $1 billion dollars after placing 245,000 put options on the Dow Jones Eurostoxx 50 index, which led many analysts to speculate that a stock market crash preceded by a new 9/11 style attack or another catastrophe could take place before or during the third week of September.

Fears grow for British economy as panic over Northern Rock spreads
Experts warn that a decade-long borrowing binge has left Britain dangerously exposed to the fallout from the global liquidity crisis

Heather Stewart and Heather Connon | London Observer

US Treasury Secretary Hank Paulson flies in to London tomorrow to discuss the worsening global credit crisis with Chancellor Alistair Darling, as fears intensify that the lending squeeze could be the last straw for Britain's buy-now-pay-later economy.

Thousands of anxious customers queued outside branches of Northern Rock to withdraw their savings this weekend, ignoring calls for calm from Darling, after he helped broker an unprecedented emergency loan from the Bank of England to rescue the bank.

President Petraeus? Iraqi official recalls the day US general revealed ambition

By Patrick Cockburn | The Independent

The US commander in Iraq, General David Petraeus, expressed long-term interest in running for the US presidency when he was stationed in Baghdad, according to a senior Iraqi official who knew him at that time.

Sabah Khadim, then a senior adviser at Iraq's Interior Ministry, says General Petraeus discussed with him his ambition when the general was head of training and recruitment of the Iraqi army in 2004-05.

David Edwards and Jason Rhyne | RawStory

911, Iraq, PNAC , All roads lead to Israel

Ryan Dawson | rys2sense.com

What really happened on 911? Over 82% of Americans according to polls conducted by CNN believe that the official story of 911 is false and that the government is part of a cover up. There seem to be four main 911 theories, one form the main stream press and the 911 commission and others from researchers who bothered to look at things like physical evidence, the paper trail, and the money trail. I have a fifth theory which unifies the war in Iraq with the cabal that planned 911. The 4 theories briefly go as follows.Some "911 was an inside job" camps like to lay out 4 scenarios. Briefly they go as follows.

1. Is the official story.
We got caught with our pants down and terrorists did 911. And the wars in the Middle East are part of the greater war on terrorism.

New Bin Laden Video: 100% Forgery
Introduces martyrdom of hijacker who is still alive, references to current events occur during video freeze

Steve Watson | Infowars.net

The newly released Osama Bin Laden video is a an iron clad forgery, and not even a good one at that. All references to current events made by the figure said to be Bin Laden occur at a point in the video where the picture freezes and only audio is present. Bin Laden also presents a pre recorded martyrdom video of one of the alleged 9/11 hijackers, Waleed al Shehri, who was reported by the BBC as still alive and well in Saudi Arabia.

The Stupidest People On Earth

By Angie Riedel | ICH

It's become the government's mantra that it cannot protect us unless it breaks the law at will, without oversight, and without our knowledge or consent. It's been openly stated that unless our basic rights are fully yielded to the government, further terrorist attacks will come, and because of our failure to yield what literally defines us, those attacks will be our own fault.

Bush, “ass” and Iraq

PRAVDA

“We’re kicking ass in Iraq” was the reported statement by President Bush during his visit to Australia. Whether or not he said it, this is the message the controlled press have instilled in the hearts and minds of the population in the USA and in the handful of sycophantic nations which supported this outrageous and illegal act of butchery.

For the controlled press, Iraq was a country living in chaos, ruled by a bloodthirsty dictator, who murdered at whim and ran a terrorist network allied to Al Qaeda, which posed an “immediate threat” to the USA and its allies through its “WMD”.

Bush Has Bad Day at Theater

By TOM RAUM | AP

SYDNEY, Australia (AP) — President Bush had a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day at the Sydney Opera House.

He'd only reached the third sentence of Friday's speech to business leaders, on the sidelines of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation forum, when he committed his first gaffe.

"Thank you for being such a fine host for the OPEC summit," Bush said to Australian Prime Minister John Howard.

Oops. That would be APEC, the annual meeting of leaders from 21 Pacific Rim nations, not OPEC, the cartel of 12 major oil producers.

Bush quickly corrected himself. "APEC summit," he said forcefully, joking that Howard had invited him to the OPEC summit next year (for the record, an impossibility, since neither Australia nor the U.S. are OPEC members).

The president's next goof went uncorrected — by him anyway. More...

Bin Laden: Still Dead After all these Years

Kurt Nimmo Blog

It hardly comes as a surprise… Osama plans to release “a new video recording … on or before next week’s sixth anniversary of the September 11 attacks on the United States,” reports the Voice of America, the propaganda unit established by the Office of War Information. “No photos or video of Bin Laden have been seen since late 2004, and the last audio message attributed to the fugitive terrorist leader was heard more than a year ago.” Of course, this makes perfect sense, as Osama died in late 2001, and as for the audio messages, these are routinely dismissed as fakes, although this is rarely mentioned by the corporate media.

“Two private monitoring organizations—SITE intelligence Group and IntelCenter—say an announcement, in the name of al-Qaida’s media-production arm, al-Sahab, seen on an Islamist website this week indicates the new al-Qaida video is about to be released,” VOA continues. As Neal Krawetz, a researcher and computer security consultant, noted last month, a recent al-Zawahiri video contained a few interesting anomalies, i.e., the IntelCenter and al-Qaeda logos were added to the tape at the same time. Krawetz, however, has since recanted, probably after a midnight visit by MIB. Even so, the customer should be wary of IntelCenter’s offerings, especially when the latest video supposedly contains an image of Osama, at least ten years old. VOA characterizes this image as “a recent portrait of bin Laden,” leading your humble blogger to believe Osama uses Grecian Formula from his Afghan cave hideaway.

Barksdale Nukes: Are the Neocons Attempting to Frame Iran?

Kurt Nimmo Blog

It’s a crazy theory, but one that holds water in the up-is-down era of Bushzarro.

Larry Johnson
, who worked for the CIA and the Department of State’s Office of the Coordinator for Counter Terrorism, looks behind “the hubbub over a B-52 taking off from a B-52 base in Minot, North Dakota and subsequently landing at a B-52 base in Barksdale, Louisiana,” an event he equates to “getting excited if you see a postal worker in uniform walking out of a post office.”

In order to get to the bottom of the seemingly mundane event, Johnson “called a old friend and retired B-52 pilot” and asked him about it. “What he told me offers one compelling case of circumstantial evidence. My buddy, let’s call him Jack D. Ripper, reminded me that the only times you put weapons on a plane is when they are on alert or if you are tasked to move the weapons to a specific site.”

Staging Nukes for Iran?

By Larry Johnson | No Quarter

Why the hubbub over a B-52 taking off from a B-52 base in Minot, North Dakota and subsequently landing at a B-52 base in Barksdale, Louisiana? That’s like getting excited if you see a postal worker in uniform walking out of a post office. And how does someone watching a B-52 land identify the cruise missiles as nukes? It just does not make sense.

Countdown Special Comment: You have no remaining credibility about Iraq, sir.

By Logan Murphy | CrooksandLiars.com

Keith Olbermann’s Special Comment tonight is without a doubt, one of his hardest hitting and most emotional to date. Keith absolutely lays waste to President Bush’s lies and rhetoric about the surge. He contrasts his callous disregard for the truth and the troops between his six hour photo op in Iraq and the interview with Draper released this weekend.

This video is a must-see, hold on to your hats.

Another Day, Another False Flag Op Foiled

Kurt Nimmo Blog

Once again, we are expected to believe a handful of patsies—excuse me, “terrorists”—were capable of taking out a U.S. military base, this time the Ramstein air base in Germany, but thanks to the diligent work of Germany’s “special police officers,” these America-hating miscreants were apprehended before they attacked. In addition to Ramstein, reports the New York Times, these would-be terrorists plotted “massive attacks” against the Frankfurt international airport and “several sites frequented by Americans, including discos [and] bars…. German and American officials said that such indicators made them suspect (sic) connections to Al Qaeda.”

Monika Harms, the German federal prosecutor, “said the three suspects arrested Tuesday belonged to a German cell of the Islamic Jihad Union, a radical Sunni group based in Central Asia that split from the extremist Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan,” thus making the “connections to Al Qaeda” suspect—or maybe not so suspect, as “al-Qaeda” has served for some time now as a handy-dandy false flag operative, a fact well documented, never mind a fact strenuously ignored by the corporate media.

Cheney Orders Media To Sell Attack On Iran
Fox News, Wall Street Journal instructed to launch PR blitz for upcoming military strike

Paul Joseph Watson | Prison Planet

Dick Cheney has ordered top Neo-Con media outlets, including Fox News and the Wall Street Journal, to unleash a PR blitz to sell a war with Iran from today, according to Barnett Rubin, the highly respected Afghanistan expert at New York University.

The New Yorker magazine reports that Rubin had a conversation with a member of a top neoconservative institution in Washington, who told him that "instructions" had been passed on from the Office of the Vice-President to roll out a campaign for war with Iran in the week after Labor Day.

Tensions with the US sharpen as Britain begins handover of Basra

By Chris Marsden | WSWS

Britain’s has completed evacuating its 550 troops from Basra Palace and announced that Basra itself will be handed over to Iraqi control “in the autumn”. Basra is the last of five provinces in southern Iraq to be handed over to the Iraqis. It leaves Britain with just 5,000 troops located at Basra’s airport.

The divergence over Iraq between Britain and the United States was given graphic expression by President Bush’s unannounced visit to Iraq yesterday. Bush held a “war council” that included top White House and Pentagon officials along with US Ambassador Ryan Crocker and Gen David Petraeus, the top US commander in Iraq, whose report on the US “surge” is to be delivered to Congress next week

Israeli Control of the Mass Media & the 9-11 Cover-Up, Part I
Arnon Milchan - Mossad's Man in the Middle

The government and controlled media have lied to the public about 9-11 for 6 years. Those who have discerned and exposed the lies about the "false flag" terror attacks and the fraudulent "War on Terror" have been treated like madmen and criminals.

It's time for this criminal nightmare to end.

The relaxing of restrictions on the use of the weapons comes despite warnings that they could trigger a heart attack in youngsters.

Until now, Tasers - which emit a 50,000-volt electric shock - have been used only by specialist officers as a "non lethal" alternative to firearms.
