US uses contractors to bypass international humanitarian laws

The use of private contractors allows the US to evade responsibility for violations of international humanitarian legislation, a top Russian diplomat for human rights and democracy said.
The comment came from Foreign Ministry Commissioner Konstantin Dolgov as the US Justice Department halted an investigation into the attempted bribing of Iraqi police officials by employees of the Blackwater security company (re-branded as ‘Academi’ in late 2011).
Blackwater attempted to pay $1 million in bribes for new contracts in Iraq, and also to block an investigation into the 2007 murder of 17 Iraqi civilians, including several children, by Blackwater operatives, a statement published on the Russian Foreign Ministry’s website said.
The US State Department didn’t end its relationship with Blackwater for two years after the tragedy, Dolgov said.
“Despite the scandalous experience with the Blackwater company, the US military and foreign policy agencies continue to attract contractors for doing the ‘dirty work’ in the zone of armed conflicts,” Dolgov said. “Such outsourcing of state functions to private firms allows the US government to evade the responsibility for violation of international humanitarian norms.”
“The Blackwater case is a vivid example of impunity enjoyed by the employees of private security companies, despite blatant violations of international Human Rights standards. The current situation is a result of the inconsistent and selective actions of the US authorities, who ignore the rights of Iraqis who fall victim to the employees of private security companies. We expect that the US authorities will at last take some measures to punish the responsible contractors of the company formerly known as Blackwater,” the statement read.
Dolgov added that a US court had sentenced Russian citizen Viktor Bout to 25 years in prison for his alleged intention to sell weapons to Colombian rebels, while the “company that succeeded Blackwater” received no punishment after confessing to illegally supplying weapons to Iraq, Afghanistan and Sudan. “Is not it a very visual demonstration of double standards used by the US justice?” he said.

US developing genocidal bio-weapons: Prominent author

Thu Aug 9, 2012 12:57PM GMT

Dr. Kevin Barrett

A prominent political analyst says the United States has proposed a bio-weapon that would destroy the part of the human brain associated with spirituality.

“An apparent Pentagon video, leaked by the hacker group Anonymous, details US military plans to develop and deploy a biological weapon that would destroy people's receptivity to religion in targeted Muslim populations,” Dr. Kevin Barrett wrote in an article on Press TV website.

Barrett went on to say that the proposed bio-weapon would be distributed in flu vaccines and would “alter human genomic expression to produce a sort of chemical lobotomy.”

The analyst further described the Pentagon project as a clear act of genocide under international law.

“The culture of Islamic societies is an intensely religious culture; indeed, it is strong religiosity that holds these societies together. The murder of the central feature of the culture of 1.5 billion people would be by far the worst genocide ever attempted or even contemplated,” he added.

Barrett further argued that the Pentagon plan is a threat to all of humanity as religion and spirituality demand work towards justice. Therefore, the US plans to erase all the religious and spiritual resistance in the world in order to gain more power and invade nations.

“The Pentagon, whose job is to massacre the just on behalf of the wicked, would be happy - even ecstatic - if there were no-one left on earth who cared about justice. If they cannot kill off the just, the Pentagon psychopaths will be happy to give everyone a bio-chemical anti-spirituality lobotomy so that nobody will ever again work for justice in this world. This would, of course, signal the end of humanity,” he concluded.

Colorado Massacre Linked To Historic Bank Fraud

By: Sorcha Faal, and as reported to her Western Subscribers
A highly disturbing Ministry of Finance report on the largest bank fraud in history that is circulating in the Kremlin today warns that it is “within the realm of possibility” that the shocking movie massacre in Colorado this past week is but another “integral part” in the deliberate plan put in place by Western banking elites and their allies to collapse the global economy.
The massacre cited in this report is being referred to as the “2012 Aurora Shooting” wherein suspect James Holmes [photo 2^nd left] is purported to have opened fire during the playing of a movie killing 12 and injuring 58 in one of the worst mass shootings in recent US history.
Interestingly, this report notes, James Holmes is extremely intelligent, a gifted scientist and grew up in an affluent neighborhood; an eerie similarity he shares with other noted American killers of the past 3 decades including Andrew Cunanan, John Gardner, John Hinckley, Timothy McVeigh, Ted Kaczynski, Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold.
Most important to note about James Holmes, however, this report says, is that his father, Robert Holmes, was said to have been scheduled to testify within the next few weeks before a US Senate panel on the largest bank fraud scandal in world history that is currently unfolding and threatens to destabilize and destroy the Western banking system.
Robert Holmes, whose “blueblood” family links go back to the Mayflower, is known throughout the global banking community as being the creator of one of the most sophisticated computer algorithms ever developed and is credited with developing predictive models for financial services; credit and fraud risk models, first and third party application fraud models and internet/online banking fraud models.
Educated at the University of California, Berkeley and Stanford University, Robert Holmes is currently the senior lead scientist with the American credit score company FICO, which was formally known as Fair, Isaac and Company, and which every American citizen is beholden to should they need to borrow money.
The massive banking crime being investigated by the US Senate is called the LIBOR Scandal where UK banks fixed the London Interbank Borrowing Rate with the complicity of the Bank of England, the US Federal Reserve (which knew about this crime for 4 years and didn’t report it) and many other major Western banks.
Not known to the majority of those affected by this LIBOR rate scandal (which is everyone in the world) is that its historically low setting of interests rates since the beginning of the Global Financial Crisis of 2007-2012 has done more to destroy the life savings, stock investments and retirements of Americas middle class than any other single event in their entire history.
Even worse, according to this report, Holmes recently completed his work on what is called one of the most sophisticated computer algorithms ever developed that not only uncovered the true intent of this massive fraud, but is, also, able to trace the Trillions of Dollars “lost” to the exact bank accounts of the elite classes who have stolen it.
Ministry intelligence officials note in this report that it is “no coincidence” that this Colorado massacre occurred within minutes of London’s Guardian News Service releasing their shocking report this past Saturday (21 July) titled “Wealth Doesn't trickle Down – It Just Floods Offshore, Research Reveals” as Robert Holmes algorithms were said used to discover this massive fraud scheme.
Equally curious to note about this massacre is that the American intelligence website TheIntelHub.Com in their 23 July article titled “Hallmarks of a False Flag: Colorado University Held Identical Drill on Same Day as Aurora Theater Mass Shooting, Mind Control, and Multiple Suspects” states that just mere hours before this shocking crime was committed the Rocky Vista University College of Osteopathic Medicine was holding an identical drill that simulated a shooter in a movie theater.
The popular InfoWars.Com website further notes that “false flag” events such as the Colorado massacre are actively planned for by the US Army as noted in their training manual titled “Foreign Internal Defense Tactics Techniques and Procedures for Special Forces”.
Even though the true objective of this massacre was may never be known, it is more than interesting to note that some in the “mainstream” US media are not accepting the “official line,” such as Fox News reporter Ben Swann from their WXIX-FOX19 station out of Cincinnati, Ohio, who asks:
“Why did Holmes go to the expense and trouble of rigging his apartment with an array of deadly explosives and then immediately tell police about the bombs when he was arrested? If Holmes wanted to kill as many people as possible, why warn the cops ahead of time?
Given the fact that Holmes was a graduate student in neuroscience, where did he obtain the skills to create a maze of bombs so complex that it took the FBI two days to disarm them? According to experts, the intricacy of the bombs was reminiscent of war zones – how could Holmes have set all this up without help from an explosives expert?
Despite police claiming “every single indicator” tells them the shooting was a lone wolf attack, numerous witnesses have described accomplices. Initial police reports that suggested the involvement of two or more shooters were quickly buried and the lone wolf narrative aggressively pushed.
As Swann points out, eyewitnesses interviewed after the shooting such as Corbin Dates state that Holmes received a phone call from someone while he was inside the theater and responded by moving to the emergency exit, suggesting the call was an accomplice coordinating the attack.
Dates also said he saw Holmes by the exit door “signaling somebody or looking for somebody to come his way.
Another eyewitness added, “From what we saw he wasn’t alone – he had someone with him. Because the second can of tear gas didn’t come from his side.”

Americans distrust White House for irrationality over Iran

Mon Jul 9, 2012 8:18AM GMT

0

By Joseph Zrnichik

 

If Americans went in front of a US court using the logic and arguments the US government uses to excuse its murder, they would be given the electric chair within a fortnight. Image if a citizen used the arguments the US uses to attack other nations to preempt increasing instances of police violence Americans regularly suffer at the hands of “law enforcement.”

Much Zionist propaganda has been written about why Iran should not be allowed a nuclear energy program for peaceful purposes.

The US has come up with a pile of illogical rationalities, outright fallacies and propaganda in hopes of denying Iran the modernity it claims to seek to promote throughout the Middle East and Southwest Asia. However, US objections might as well have come from the mouth of Ehud Barak himself as the US lists what it claims to be its concerns, concerns that in no way violate international law, upset international stability or threaten the balance of power according to a growing number of American foreign policy think tanks, policy wonks, former defense officials and statesmen who understand that war does not bring peace, prosperity, security or liberty.

Individuals such as Kenneth Waltz argue that Iran needs a bomb to ensure the West does not attack it. A growing number of US groups and individuals claim it is only through a militaristic paradigm of what had been the Cold War policy between the US and the former U.S.S.R., that of Mutually Assured Destruction (MAD), that Iran can ensure its security and maintain a just peace.

Iran rejects this paradigm and has stated the three most effective ways to promote peace are through international justice, the adherence to international treaties and the working towards a nuclear-free Middle East. Few Americans understand that these three foundational underpinnings are constantly undercut by the US due to the control wielded by the Zionist lobby through the US media, its control of the US political process and its position of influence within the US defense establishment that blackmails the US into exercising its veto authority as a member of the UN Security Council.

Iran’s leadership has stated it is a great sin against Islam to seek nuclear weapons. The IAEA and the US’ Central Intelligence Agency have both stated Iran does not have a nuclear weapon program and has abided by the IAEA and NPT protocols, going above and beyond what measures are needed to ensure compliance.

The greatest threat to the IAEA and NPT is the US’ refusal to abide by its provisions. Countries have learned that to disarm in exchange for security guarantees is as an effective means of foreign policy as deciding to become the willing rape victim of colonialists and imperialists.

Yet, the world is bombarded with Zionist propaganda because Israel fears Iran gaining the technical knowledge that would come to any nation building a nuclear energy program. But, knowledge is as an unavoidable by-product of scientific endeavor in nuclear energy and medicine as spent fuel rods are that require reprocessing in order to produce more electrical energy.

Unfortunately, when one reads the US media, he is bombarded with the Zionist meme of Israelis claiming Iran wants to wipe them and Israel off the map. One wonders how this can be accomplished considering Iran has no nuclear weapons and the only nation to have used them, the US, proved it was unable to wipe Japan or the Japanese people off the map.

The Israelis constantly spout hysterics and feign fear, but the leadership in Iran has proven itself much more stable, sane, logical, and peaceful than the Zionist regime that is destroying itself and demonstrating its illegitimacy due to its criminality. This ruse of Israelis claiming security concerns requires the US to make payouts to regimes across the globe, and the entire world participates in what they know is a charade to garner a small share of an increasingly diminishing dollar from a nation that is diminishing in influence and stability due to its absurd foreign and domestic policy positions.

The erosion of US domestic tranquility comes as a natural by-product of engaging in international lawlessness, but Americans have not yet realized that you cannot be a nation of laws domestically while engaging in a global crime spree abroad that includes illegal invasions, violations of international law with regard to the Geneva Convention and human rights and the use of torture and murder as the cornerstones of foreign policy. The Saudi and Bahraini regimes make pacts with the US, and hence indirectly with Israel. However, it is difficult to see who is getting the worse end of the deal as every US partner seeks to place the US into wars that need not be fought for any legitimate American interests, but instead to the detriment of them.

To see a vulgar display of US duplicity and hypocrisy one needs to look no farther than the US violating the Geneva Convention with respect to perpetrating regime change, waging aggressive war, engaging in torture and murder, conducting extraordinary renditions and providing support for terrorist organizations like the MEK [MKO], PPK, Jundullah and now al-Qaeda in Syria. This is the method the US uses to ensure its way of life. The US has a long history of enlisting terrorist support in the implementation of a terrorist foreign policy, and this policy is causing more and more nations to realize they do not need the US to engage mutually beneficial trade, cultural exchange or military agreements as such are growing to the exclusion of US interests and influence.

The BRICS nations, Latin America and even Iraq are engaging in cooperation with their neighbors much to the dismay of the power structures within the US establishment. The US’ last unexploited frontier is Africa, but with China looking for investments so as to have something to do with the trillions of US dollars it holds, the US may end up a day late and trillions of dollars short. It is in such an environment the US then begins to pit tribes, ethnic groups, religious groups and political groups against each other. This is the tried and true method of conducting imperial conquest. Sell weapons to one group so the other will need more. Since the US does not make much else in the way of consumer goods, it has to rely on the business of mass slaughter.

For every international law the US has broken, it feels its rationalizations provide it absolute justification. If Americans went in front of a US court using the logic and arguments the US government uses to excuse its murder, they would be given the electric chair within a fortnight. Image if a citizen used the arguments the US uses to attack other nations to preempt increasing instances of police violence Americans regularly suffer at the hands of “law enforcement.”

But, let’s consider what crimes Iranians had to suffer at the hands of America. All the way back in 1953, Operation TP-Ajax resulted in the CIA supporting the bombing of mosques in order to blame the crimes on the government of Mohammed Mossadegh. This resulted in the overthrow of his government and the execution of his cabinet ministers, not to mention the hundreds of deaths of innocent civilians. The US government felt this murder of Iranians was nothing more than the implementation of foreign policy. Americans accepted as rational and reasonable something that is so horrible and grotesque that it ought to be a crime that should never to be forgotten and would rightfully serve as a rallying point for all Iranian patriots for all time.

This was not the last of the crimes Iranians suffered at the hands of Americans. The US then installed the Shah of Iran whose SAVAK [Intelligence Agency] then exterminated all political opposition from 1953 to 1979 when the people finally decided they could no longer suffer the tyrant and overthrew him.

Instead of America being ashamed of what it had done to a country that had not waged an aggressive war in generations, the US decided to encourage, support, and provide economic and military assistance to Saddam to wage a war of aggression against Iran that would cost a peaceful Iran hundreds of thousands of lives. The U.S. actually gave Saddam the chemical weapons and production capabilities he used to slaughter Iranians, Iraqi Shiites, and Iraqi Kurds. Not once did the US media mention the UN, international law, or Iraqi WMDs during the 8-year Iraq-Iran War.

Then the US decided to atomize the very country for allegedly having the weapons the US gave it, knowing full well the weapons had already been destroyed. If Saddam had WMDs, he would be as safe and secure as Kim Jong-il’s North Korea, or Pakistan and India. Also, Iraq would have been under no more obligation to follow international law than the US or Israel. Speaking of Israel, look what their illegal nuclear program conducted in absolute secrecy in violation of international law and IAEA protocols has allowed it to do. The Israeli nuclear program has allowed Israel to unilaterally make piracy, ethnic cleansing and genocide legal, acceptable and tolerable to the US and NATO.

After the Shah was deposed in 1979 and the US goaded Saddam to attack Iran, the US decided it wanted to test its new anti-aircraft weapon systems deployed on the USS Vincennes as it proceeded to shoot an Iranian airliner out of the sky knowing full well it was a commercial aircraft. IR Flight 655 with 290 innocent civilians was blasted out of the sky while the US refused an apology and the commander of the ship was awarded military decorations and honors for his slaughter of innocent civilians. Here is the whole history of that episode that was hidden from the American people:

This was after the US began attacking oil platforms and Saddam had killed Iranians with US supplied chemical weapons and production capability.

Not only do the US people not want to know the truth, they would refuse to believe the truth no matter what facts were presented. They literally believe the US would never do something as heinous as engaging in terrorism, but wishful thinking does not create reality. The fact is that if the US inspects a nation and finds it has no means of resistance, it will then conduct its attack to get its way. It is a nation’s failure to have a credible deterrent that creates a destabilizing situation. If Iran had nukes it would stand no chance of attack and would have the power to execute its foreign policy as an equal among equals. But, the bullying has cost the US as more and more nations balance against its power and the US relies more and more on military might for its influence.

All the things I have mentioned in this article are all on the CIA website, in Wikipedia, and common knowledge for people who seriously research American foreign policy. It is accepted fact throughout the political spectrum from Ron Paul on the right of the political spectrum to Noam Chomsky on the left. In reference to the suppositions posited here, there is no argument by those who seriously dissect and study American foreign policy and its impact on the world.

It is the fact is that the majority of Americans are so stupid and gullible that they will believe any pro-Zionist US imperial propaganda amplified in the media. These same people are so intellectually lazy that they can’t take the time to cut and paste a speech into Google Translator to get at the truth of a matter; moreover, they would rather not get at the truth. The success of American propaganda is in keeping the top 20% of the population misinformed as the other 80% are enamored by sports, celebrity, political divisiveness, and the numerous other distractions that keep people from understanding the plans and actions of the power elite.

In short, I have no faith in the US and its foreign policy. Its foreign policy abuses, crimes and tyrannies are being mirrored in its domestic policy, criminal justice system, tax code, and failure to abide by the US Constitution. It is a matter of time now before the US destroys itself after it inflicts the misery on its own people it has until now only exported. I can’t say we, as Americans don’t deserve retribution for our ignorance and apathy. We are as responsible for what our government does as any other nation is for its government, at least this is what our government says as it bombs and kills civilians by the scores, especially in countries with no navy, army or air force.

Time for regime change in the USA

Fri Jun 29, 2012 5:58PM

Rodney Shakespeare

All in all, it’s time for all sensible people and all sensible countries (there’s quite a lot of them) to consciously question any assertion by the USA that this or that regime is at fault and needs to be overthrown. Instead all sensible people and countries should start to say that the world is fed up with war-mongering as well as angry at the Wall Street machinations which are destroying the world economy."

With breath-taking arrogance, the USA is opposing the presence of Iran at the discussions about Syria in Geneva.

Turkey - now openly playing the sectarian card and deliberately causing a Phantom jet to fly in fast and low in order to provoke a reaction and so involve NATO - can be present. The USA - supplying arms to al-Qaeda; organizing Salafists, Wahhabists and death squads; broadcasting lying propaganda - can be present. Russia and China can be present. But not Iran.

Yet Iran has political, religious and cultural links with the Alawite (Shia sect) government of Syria. Iran is the one country - not the USA, not Russia, not China, not Turkey, Saudi Arabia or Qatar - which can have frank talks with Syria. Iran is the one country which Syria can trust as understanding its situation. And Iran is the only country which can give hope of avoiding a civil war bloodbath, at the very least, or a probable decade-long regional war.

But Iran is not to be at Geneva because the USA, riddled with bigotry and an example of Ancient Greek hubris if there ever was one, hates any country which wants to be independent. It particularly hates Iran. Indeed, so extreme is the hatred that anything (including war) can be done to achieve regime change in Tehran. It is therefore no surprise that, at all times, the USA quickly side-lines democracy and justice if there is any likelihood that Iran might be involved in the solution. And just to spell out the point, in Syria, the USA is co-operating with Saudi Arabia - a vicious, totalitarian tyranny supplying guns and money - and with Qatar - an anti-democratic country, supplying guns and money.

Furthermore, bent on regime change in Syria, the USA is comprehensively ignoring the Kofi Annan Peace Plan just as the referendum and election held by Syria are also being ignored. When the USA wants regime change, anything goes - particularly the torturing and slaughter of Shia women and children which, by twisting the facts to their opposite, are blamed on the government when they were really the work of the American-backed Wahhabi and NATO death squads who, when not killing, like to ransack Christian churches.

Nor is Iran banned only from a solution for Syria. It is also banned from the solution for Afghanistan. Iran is next to Afghanistan. It has linguistic, religious, cultural and trading links with Afghanistan. If ever there was a country which can talk to all parties in Afghanistan, it is Iran. However, the USA - full of self-important haughtiness and the major cause of the problem - determines that Iran can never be part of the solution and, by doing so, condemns Afghanistan to many more years of misery.

Yet the world is turning: change is afoot and Russia, wanting Iran to be at Geneva, is one of the countries which is not only sensing the change but is actively doing something about it. Right the way round the globe countries are quietly banding together. They can do so because they are directly experiencing a decline in the economic and political power of the USA. On top of which the USA’s moral authority went out of the window long ago so countries are quietly plotting a new course for themselves - one which involves breaking free from Western hegemony. Thus the Shanghai Co-operation Organisation brings together Russia, China, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and others, with India, Pakistan and Iran as observer members. China and Japan have decided to trade in their own currencies and not the dollar - there’s a sign of the times! And in South America a number of countries are beginning to band together to run their own international bank (the Banco del Sud) thus causing the diminution of American financial and political influence.

Indeed, the amazing thing is that the USA is completely failing to see what is going on. It was completely caught off balance by the Arab Spring so perhaps it is not surprising that it does not understand that it is hated more than it knows; that its traditional mixture of bullying, bribery and attack are not quite as impressive as it thinks; and that, in short, others are fed up with a short-sighted arrogance and even more short-sighted stupidity which is always prepared to go to war (even if that means that the USA is now virtually bankrupt because of its military spending).

All in all, it’s time for all sensible people and all sensible countries (there’s quite a lot of them) to consciously question any assertion by the USA that this or that regime is at fault and needs to be overthrown. Instead all sensible people and countries should start to say that the world is fed up with war-mongering as well as angry at the Wall Street machinations which are destroying the world economy.

Then the way will be opened for impressing on the American people what the situation really requires - regime change in the USA.

Scopolamine: Zombie Drug Used By CIA & Criminals

by BETH STEBNER (UK DAILY MAIL)


VICE's Ryan Duffy travelled to the country to find out more about the powerful drug. In two segments, he revealed the shocking culture of another Colombian drug world, interviewing those who deal the drug and those who have fallen victim to it.

Demencia Black, a drug dealer in the capital of Bogota, said the drug is frightening for the simplicity in which it can be administered.

He told Vice that Scopolamine can be blown in the face of a passer-by on the street, and within minutes, that person is under the drug's effect - scopolamine is odourless and tasteless.

'You can guide them wherever you want,' he explained. 'It's like they're a child.'

Black said that one gram of Scopolamine is similar to a gram of cocaine, but later called it 'worse than anthrax.'

In high doses, it is lethal.

One Colombian woman said that under the influence of scopolamine, she led a man to her house and helped him ransack it.
The drug, he said, turns people into complete zombies and blocks memories from forming. So even after the drug wears off, victims have no recollection as to what happened.

One victim told Vice that a man approached her on the street asking her for directions. Since it was close by, she helped take the man to his destination, and they drank juice together.

She took the man to her house and helped him gather all of her belongings, including her boyfriend's cameras and savings.

'It is painful to have lost money,' the woman said,' but I was actually quite lucky.'

According to the British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, the drug - also known as hyoscine - causes the same level of memory loss as diazepam.

In ancient times, the drug was given to the mistresses of dead Colombian leaders - they were told to enter their master's grave, where they were buried alive.

In modern times, the CIA used the drug as part of Cold War interrogations, with the hope of using it like a truth serum. However, because of the drug's chemical makeup, it also induces powerful hallucinations.

The tree common around Colombia, and is called the 'borrachero' tree - loosely translated into the 'get-you-drunk' tree.

It is said that Colombian mothers warn their children not to fall asleep under the tree, though the leafy green canopies and large yellow and white flowers seem appealing.

Experts are baffled as to why Colombia is riddled with scopolamine-related crimes, but wager much of it has to do with the country's torn drug-culture past, and on-going civil war.

Obama Gives “Total Power” To Clinton As Nano Apocalypse Nears

By: Sorcha Faal, and as reported to her Western Subscribers

A truly frightening “Red Alert” report prepared by Health Care Minister Veronika Skvortsova on the mysterious deaths of nearly 200 children in the Indian State of Bihar earlier this month says that our world has suffered its first “nano-disaster” and warns that an “apocalyptic event” involving nanotechnology is much nearer than anyone will admit.

Nanotechnology (sometimes shortened to “nanotech”) is the study of manipulating matter on an atomic and molecular scale. Generally, nanotechnology deals with developing materials, devices, or other structures with at least one dimension sized from 1 to 100 nanometers. Quantum mechanical effects are important at this quantum-realm scale.

Nanotechnology is considered a key technology for the future. Consequently, various governments have invested billions of dollars in its future. The United States has invested $3.7 billion through its National Nanotechnology Initiative followed by Japan with $750 million and the European Union $1.2 billion.

Minister Skvortsova states in her report that “extremely troubling signs” from India’s Bihar State were first noticed by Russian authorities on 16 June when over 18 children died in a single day bringing the death toll from this “mysterious disease” to 174. Unofficial sources, however, put the death toll to 203.

Coinciding with these mysterious child deaths, Minister Skvortsova says, was the near immediate closing of 2 textile mills in Bihar that were working under a contract with the Aryabhatta Knowledge University , one of the leading research centers for nanotechnology in India, where fabrics were being impregnated with silver nanoparticles.  

Minister Skvortsova says in her report that the “commonality” between these child deaths and the closing of the 2 textile mills was the wastewater runoff these children played in where they were “more than likely” exposed to high levels of silver nanoparticles which led to a collapse of their body’s immune systems.

The danger of silver nanoparticles were first outlined by the New Scientist News Service in 2008 when they warned that the release of these particles could potentially disrupt helpful bacteria used in waste-water treatment facilities or endanger aquatic organisms in lakes and streams.

Unbeknownst to the vast majority of people are how widespread nanoparticles consumer products have become, and which the world’s foremost tracker of them called The Project on Emerging Nanotechnologies, now say numbers over 1,300. The Project on Emerging Nanotechnologies further reports that “more products are based on nanoscale silver—used for its antimicrobial properties—than any other nanomaterial; 313 products (24 percent of the inventory) use silver nanoparticles.”

The most common product silver nanoparticles are used in are socks and which Bihar textile manufactures supply nearly 100% of the silk and related synthetic fabrics for the entire world.

Minister Skvortsova concludes in her report that new policies and procedures regarding the use of nanotechnology are needed to avert a catastrophe and must include complete labeling of all products containing these potentially dangerous substances.

Interesting to note is that the world’s leading nanotechnology manufacturing and research, the United States, has taken an opposite course and last year declined to put warning labels on sunscreens that contain nanomaterials, while requiring other labeling information. Curiously this was done despite warnings by scientists that the use of nanoparticles in sunscreen lotions “might be dangerous to human health.”

With the mass death of children in India now being linked to nanoparticles, however, the United States this past week reversed course in what is described as an “unusual departure from its usual innocent-until-proven-guilty approach in regulating consumer goods” when the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a new statement saying that such tiny technology needs more safety testing before it's used in consumer goods.

More ominous than this FDA warning, perhaps, is that within days of the mass deaths of these Indian children the Obama regime, on 19 June, awarded contracts for the creation of three new centers tasked with responding to the threat of future pandemics and biological attacks that are to be based in Maryland, North Carolina and Texas.

And going from the merely ominous to the downright scary, within weeks of the 2012 Davos Summit (called the world’s most exclusive gathering) President Obama issued a new Executive Order titled National Defense Resources Preparedness on 16 March that states during times of disaster and/or catastrophe the United States will be ruled a new entity called The Defense Production Act Committee (Sec. 701) which is to be headed by The Secretary of State, who at this time is Hillary Clinton.  

To fully understand the significance between Obama’s issuing of this Executive Order and the Davos Summit one has to remember that the Davos World Economic Forum in its 2008 annual report indentified nanotechnology as a “Core Risk” that had the potential to destroy human life on an unimaginable scale.

The fears voiced by Davos were realized this past week when research carried out at North Carolina State University showed that gold nanoparticles are capable of unraveling DNA.

The danger posed to our world by scientists playing God, and supported by governments, is beyond comprehension, and in a History Channel broadcast about a futuristic doomsday scenario it stated: “In a common practice, billions of nanobots are released to clean up an oil spill off the coast of Louisiana. However, due to a programming error, the nanobots devour all carbon based objects, instead of just the hydrocarbons of the oil. The nanobots destroy everything, all the while, replicating themselves. Within days, the planet is turned to dust.”

GLOBAL ELITES THROWN OUT OF ICELAND: Iceland Dismantles Corrupt Gov’t Then Arrests All Rothschild Bankers

Since the 1900′s the vast majority of the American population has dreamed about saying “NO” to the Unconstitutional, corrupt, Rothschild/Rockefeller banking criminals, but no one has dared to do so. Why? If just half of our Nation, and the “1%”, who pay the majority of the taxes, just said NO MORE! Our Gov’t would literally change over night. Why is it so hard, for some people to understand, that by simply NOT giving your money, to large Corporations, who then send jobs, Intellectual Property, etc. offshore and promote anti-Constitutional rights… You will accomplish more, than if you used violence. In other words… RESEARCH WHERE YOU ARE SENDING EVERY SINGLE PENNY!!! Is that so hard? The truth of the matter is… No one, except the Icelanders, have to been the only culture on the planet to carry out this successfully. Not only have they been successful, at overthrowing the corrupt Gov’t, they’ve drafted a Constitution, that will stop this from happening ever again. That’s not the best part… The best part, is that they have arrested ALL Rothschild/Rockefeller banking puppets, responsible for the Country’s economic Chaos and meltdown.

Last week 9 people were arrested in London and Reykjavik for their possible responsibility for Iceland’s financial collapse in 2008, a deep crisis which developed into an unprecedented public reaction that is changing the country’s direction.

It has been a revolution without weapons in Iceland, the country that hosts the world’s oldest democracy (since 930), and whose citizens have managed to effect change by going on demonstrations and banging pots and pans. Why have the rest of the Western countries not even heard about it?

Pressure from Icelandic citizens’ has managed not only to bring down a government, but also begin the drafting of a new constitution (in process) and is seeking to put in jail those bankers responsible for the financial crisis in the country. As the saying goes, if you ask for things politely it is much easier to get them.

This quiet revolutionary process has its origins in 2008 when the Icelandic government decided to nationalise the three largest banks, Landsbanki, Kaupthing and Glitnir, whose clients were mainly British, and North and South American.

After the State took over, the official currency (krona) plummeted and the stock market suspended its activity after a 76% collapse. Iceland was becoming bankrupt and to save the situation, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) injected U.S. $ 2,100 million and the Nordic countries helped with another 2,500 million.

Great little victories of ordinary people

While banks and local and foreign authorities were desperately seeking economic solutions, the Icelandic people took to the streets and their persistent daily demonstrations outside parliament in Reykjavik prompted the resignation of the conservative Prime Minister Geir H. Haarde and his entire government.

Citizens demanded, in addition, to convene early elections, and they succeeded. In April a coalition government was elected, formed by the Social Democratic Alliance and the Left Green Movement, headed by a new Prime Minister, Jóhanna Sigurðardóttir.

Throughout 2009 the Icelandic economy continued to be in a precarious situation (at the end of the year the GDP had dropped by 7%) but, despite this, the Parliament proposed to repay the debt to Britain and the Netherlands with a payment of 3,500 million Euros, a sum to be paid every month by Icelandic families for 15 years at 5.5% interest.

The move sparked anger again in the Icelanders, who returned to the streets demanding that, at least, that decision was put to a referendum. Another big small victory for the street protests: in March 2010 that vote was held and an overwhelming 93% of the population refused to repay the debt, at least with those conditions.

This forced the creditors to rethink the deal and improve it, offering 3% interest and payment over 37 years. Not even that was enough. The current president, on seeing that Parliament approved the agreement by a narrow margin, decided last month not to approve it and to call on the Icelandic people to vote in a referendum so that they would have the last word.

The bankers are fleeing in fear

Returning to the tense situation in 2010, while the Icelanders were refusing to pay a debt incurred by financial sharks without consultation, the coalition government had launched an investigation to determine legal responsibilities for the fatal economic crisis and had already arrested several bankers and top executives closely linked to high risk operations.

Interpol, meanwhile, had issued an international arrest warrant against Sigurdur Einarsson, former president of one of the banks. This situation led scared bankers and executives to leave the country en masse.

In this context of crisis, an assembly was elected to draft a new constitution that would reflect the lessons learned and replace the current one, inspired by the Danish constitution.

To do this, instead of calling experts and politicians, Iceland decided to appeal directly to the people, after all they have sovereign power over the law. More than 500 Icelanders presented themselves as candidates to participate in this exercise in direct democracy and write a new constitution. 25 of them, without party affiliations, including lawyers, students, journalists, farmers and trade union representatives were elected.

Among other developments, this constitution will call for the protection, like no other, of freedom of information and expression in the so-called Icelandic Modern Media Initiative, in a bill that aims to make the country a safe haven for investigative journalism and freedom of information, where sources, journalists and Internet providers that host news reporting are protected.

The people, for once, will decide the future of the country while bankers and politicians witness the transformation of a nation from the sidelines.
