The fairy tale goes like this: they are high-school
sweethearts from a small town, Metamora, Illinois, in the American Midwest. He
graduates from high school, becomes a US marine and is sent to Iraq. When he
returns, they get engaged. He proposes before he leaves for his second tour.
She is 18; he is 21. She can't wait for him to come
home.
The tour is cut short when a suicide bomber blows up near his
truck and he suffers horrific, life-changing injuries.
A day later he is in San Antonio, Texas, at the Brooke Army
Medical Center. She leaves her home town for the first time to fly there with
his mother so they can be by his side. She is there for him. His injuries are
severe. He will have numerous operations and she will stand by him throughout.
It will be a year and a half before they all go home. In the meantime, she will
move in with his mother.
The homecoming is a triumph.
He is a hero and she is his heroine. Their commitment to
each other is inspiring and rock-solid. They get married. She is now 21 and he is
24. The wedding takes place on October 7 2006, and that date is declared a
state holiday.
Renee and Tyler
Ziegel Day.
Their romance is covered by The Sunday Times Magazine. They
plan to have a family. Love conquers all.
The sad part is that while Dick Cheney swims in 50 million and counting blood money from the Iraq war, Tyler
Ziegel will spend the last few years of his short life in excruciating pain. Every day he could not bring himself to look in the mirror at what the roadside bomb had done to his face an body. Tyler
Ziegel is dead now, his life cut short by his injuries.
What is amazing is that at no time did Dick Cheney or any of his blood sucking vampire cronies at Halliburton ever contact Tyler
Ziegel and thank him for his service or his sacrifice. When Tyler
Ziegel struggled finical needs at no time did Dick Cheney nor Haillburton ever offer to step in and assist Tyler
Ziegel or his wife or his family.
I wonder if Dick Cheney knows that he can't spend all his ill gotten gains in HELL?
US government finical analysis reveals who made the lion share of blood money for the Iraq war effort. This company has been providing all types of auxiliary services as U.S. military operations in Iraq climbed to stratospheric levels.
These auxiliary services included, but are not limited too,
providing private security, building infrastructure and feeding and clothing US
troops in Iraq.
The No. 1 recipient?
Houston-based
energy-focused engineering and construction firm KBR, Inc. (NYSE:KBR),
which was spun off from its parent, oilfield services provider
Halliburton Co. (NYSE:HAL), in 2007.
The
company procured $39.5 billion in Iraq War contracts over the past
decade, with many of the deals given without any bidding from competing
firms, such as a $568-million contract renewal in 2010 to provide
housing, meals, water and bathroom services to soldiers.
And wouldn't you know it! Vice president Dick Cheney OWNED stock in Halliburton while he was in office. So, Vice president Dick Cheney started a war which profited him and his cronies upwards of 40 BILLION and counting.
Black conservative leaders PRAISE the NRA which was created to protect freed slaves!!!
Black conservative leaders discuss the reason the NRA was founded and how gun control is an effort to control BLACK people.
The
Center for Urban Renewal and Education (CURE) hosted a group of
prominent figures from the African American community at 9:45A.M. on
Friday, February 22nd at the National Press Club to speak out against
gun control legislation currently being considered on Capitol Hill.
CURE is the largest black conservative think tank in the nation and is headquartered in Washington, D.C.
CURE
organized the news conference in response to concerns shared by black
conservatives that the Senate proposed laws will restrict their ability
to defend themselves, their property and their families. They are also
concerned that the proposed gun control legislation puts too much power
in the hands of politicians.
"I believe that it is our duty to
stand together and challenge the proposals currently on the table in the
Senate, which invoke painful memories of Jim Crow laws and black
codes," said CURE president and founder, Star Parker. "Black history is
rife with government demands for background checks in order to qualify
for constitutional rights. All Americans should be concerned."
Star
Parker, a nationally syndicated columnist and other noted thought
leaders, authors and speakers will make the case against the type of gun
control measures President Obama and his liberal allies are proposing.
While the group believes that Sandy Hook was a national tragedy, they
oppose its use as an opportunity to advance government control and strip
any American citizens of their constitutional rights. In the middle of
Black History Month, CURE is calling for a serious national dialogue
about the impact of gun control on the black community.
It is so nice to see my fellow Americans standing shoulder to shoulder, regardless of Race, to stand and defend the United States Constitution!
On Monday, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) posted details of a no bid contract with weapons manufacturer Sig Sauer, worth $4.5 million over the next five years.
The contract is identical to the one DHS announced last week with Heckler & Koch.
Both contracts are for $900,000 worth of "replacement parts" a year, for weapons used by DHS agents.
While it is hard to imagine how or why
a domestic agency could anticipate firing their weapons enough over the
next five years to need $1.8 million annually in replacement parts, the
DHS documents clearly state their need to "stock sufficient quantities
of parts needed to fulfill the quantities of parts anticipated to be
ordered."
In April 2012, DHS purchased $143,000 worth of submachine guns from Heckler & Koch.
My question is this?
What is the Federal government preparing for? This is the biggest purchase of arms and ammunition since WWII. All it to be used inside the United States. Last I checked there was ZERO foreign troops invading the US. Who are these BILLIONS of rounds of Hollow Point Ammunition to be used on? Why are 2700 highly armored ant-mine personal carriers being deployed to the streets of the United States? Who are these tens of thousands of fully automatic machine guns to be used on?
When did the citizens of the United Sates of America become the enemy of the Federal government?
This is how the Rich stay Rich...They trade with inside information. They trades, stock purchases, money market bets are always made with insider information that the honest, hard working, tax-paying American citizens will never be privy too. This is why the wealth is concentrated in very few hands, because it is all a SCAM. It is all scales which are tipped in their favor. there is never any risk in their trades because the whole system is rigged. Read this little spoken of, but very well known in finical circles, story which just happened to NEVER be seen on any major media network...
ON July 25th 2011 An unknown trader
dropped a bomb on the bond market Thursday - a $1 billion Armageddon
trade betting the United States will lose its AAA credit rating.
In one moment, an invisible trader placed a single trade that moved the most liquid debt market in the world.
The massive trade wasn't placed in bonds themselves; it was placed in the futures market.
The
trade was for block trades of 5,370 10-year Treasury futures executed
at 124-03 and 3,100 Treasury bond futures executed at 125-01.
The
value of the trade was about $850 million dollars. In simple terms, if
that was a direct bond buy, no one would be talking about it.
However,
with the use of futures, you have to... ... have margin capacity behind
the trade. That means with a single push of a button someone was
willing to commit more than $1 billion of real capital to this trade
with expectations of a 10-to-1 return ratio.
You only do this if you see an edge.
And would'nt you know it
Credit rating agency Standard & Poor's (S&P) downgraded its credit rating of the U.S. federal government from AAA (outstanding) to AA+ (excellent) on August 5, 2011.
This was the first time the government was given a rating below AAA.
S&P had announced a negative outlook on the AAA rating in April
2011. The downgrade to AA+ occurred four days after the 112th United States Congress voted to raise the debt ceiling of the federal government by means of the Budget Control Act of 2011 on August 2, 2011.
Who was it you ask? Who stands to make 100 BILLION dollars on this INSIDE INFORMATION?
“There are mounting rumors that investor George Soros, 80, famously known as ‘the man who
broke the Bank of England’, maybe be involved.
He made more than $1billion on
currency speculation when the British pound left the Exchange Rate
Mechanism on Black Wednesday in 1992.
The latest bet was made on July
21 on trades of 5,370 ten-year Treasury futures and 3,100 Treasury bond
futures, reported ETF Daily News.
Now the investor’s gamble seems
to have paid off after Standard and Poor’s issued a credit rating
downgrade from AAA to AA+ last Friday.
Whoever it is stands to earn a
1,000 per cent return on their money, with the expectation that interest
rates will be going up after the downgrade.”
The deal was made around the same time Soros dissolved the non-family aspect of his hedge fund, returning
money to outside investors while freeing his fund from adhering to SEC
reporting mandates. Barnes asserted in July that whoever made the deal
must have been a major proprietary trader who had an ear to someone
first aware of when a debt-cieling deal was made between major leaders
in Washington. Kenneth Schortgen connects the dots to Soros’s possible involvement:
“While the identity
of the ‘mystery investor’ remains unknown, many indicators do point to
George Soros as the principal benefactor. First, Soros has been tied to
the Obama administration since the 2008 elections. In February of this
year in fact, a Soros investment fund profited well on President
Obama’s new green energy
policies. Secondly, right about the exact same time as the $1 Billion
bet took place on the US credit rating downgrade, Soros made public the
move to divest his
management fund of outside investors, and quietly go private. This
move allows him to make trades and investments without being required to
notify the SEC under the new Dodd-Frank act passed in Congress last
year.
Of course, this mystery bet
could have been made by any Hedge Fund that followed Soro’s course of
action, and went private on their own. However, very few people have
the inside contacts with the Treasury Department and Obama
administration that Soros does, and the historical evidence does point
strongly to this bet being one that he has done in the past.”
In 1992 Soros nearly destroyed the
British Pound, and made a profit of $1 Billion, by betting against the
currency and borrowing sterling heavily, converting that into a mixture
of Deutschmarks and French francs. On “Black Wednesday,” Soros’s bet
paid off, and he has since been called the man “who broke the Bank of England.”
Many see “eerie similarities” between the breaking of the Bank of
England, and the investor who made big when betting on the first S &
P downgrade to U.S. credit in the agency’s history.
The “lurid” tale of
Franklin, to borrow an adjective from the New York Times in 1988, begins
with Larry King. Not the CNN talk show host, but Lawrence E King, Jr. of
Omaha, who sang the national anthem at the 1984 Republican convention in
Dallas, and throughout the '80s was described as a “GOP high-roller”
and “the fastest rising African-American star” in the Republican Party.
As King named-dropped to a reporter for Omaha’s weekly Metropolitan in
1988,
“I know some of the people I admire aren’t very popular. Ed
Meese. The late Bill Casey of the CIA. And I love former Chief Justice
Burger. Those are the people I really like to talk to. Bill Casey ... I
thought so very highly of him.”
Tall and corpulent, King had a
fondness for flowers, fine tailored suits, expensive cars, mansions,
chartered jets, and glistening jewelry. He had a hand in an array of
businesses, but his day job was general manager of the Franklin Federal
Credit Union, created to provide loans for Omaha’s underserved black
community.
Vice Chairman for Finance of the National Black
Republican Council, a sanctioned affiliate of the Republican National
Committee, King also chaired the Council of Minority Americans, a
nonprofit group that sponsored a $100,000 gala at the 1988 Republican
convention in New Orleans. The host committee included former President
Gerald Ford, Alexander Haig, and Jack Kemp. A ten-minute videotape
featuring King and Jack Kemp, urging blacks to vote for George Bush,
Sr., was shown at the gala.
On November 4, 1988, federal agents
descended on the Franklin Credit Union; the National Credit Union
Administration would ultimately conclude that $39.4 million had been
stolen. King was indicted on 40 counts, which included conspiracy,
fraud, and embezzlement. Current Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas,
then chairman of the Equal Opportunity Commission, described King as a
“friendly person,” and said his legal travails were “unfortunate.”
Larry
King had been dogged by accusations of pedophilia for a number of
years. Among the first accusers was Eulice Washington, who claimed King
flew her to out-of-state pedophilic orgies. She had been adopted by
relatives of King’s in the 1970s. Her new “mother” was King’s cousin
Barbara Webb, and her new “father” was husband Jarrett Webb, who sat on
the board of the Franklin Federal Credit Union. To Eulice Washington,
King had been “Uncle Larry.” “Larry King set up the pedophile ring,”
says Eulice. “From my knowledge and from what I saw go down, he was the
man who got it moving and rolling. Everything went through him. … He
loves boys. He loves them like he shouldn’t.”
Shortly after the
Franklin raid, rumors of a nationwide pedophile network swept Nebraska,
and in January of 1989 a subcommittee of the state’s legislature
convened in Lincoln to investigate both Franklin’s looting and the
whispers of far worse crimes. The subcommittee would be called the
Franklin Committee, and it was chaired by the 64-year-old Loren Schmit, a
corn farmer, stalwart Republican, and 24-year veteran of Nebraska’s
legislature. The Franklin Committee had not even started its work when
Schmit received his first anonymous phone call—Schmit told reporters for
British television that the caller had urged him to drop the inquiry
because it would reach the highest levels of the Republican Party.”
Eulice
Washington’s initial allegations of child abuse appeared in a 1988
report from Nebraska’s Foster Care Review Board, a state agency that
reviews the plans, services, and placements of children in out-of-home
care to ensure their optimum welfare. Though the report contained a
series of allegations about King, its centerpiece consisted of
interviews of Eulice by a Boys Town youth worker. Eulice stated that she
and Boys Town students had been transported across state lines for
sexual exploitation. After the Board requested a law enforcement
investigation, its report moved through channels at the Omaha Police
Department (OPD) and the state attorney general’s office in July of
1988. In the absence of child abuse indictments, the State House swelled
with rumors of a cover-up..
"We did receive some sensitive
information in July,” said Nebraska’s Attorney General in a December
1988 Lincoln Journal article. “My office acted promptly and
professionally and nothing was sat on.” In early 1989, the Franklin
Committee issued a subpoena to the Assistant Attorney General, demanding
that the Attorney General’s office surrender its reports relating to
King and child abuse, but Attorney General Robert Spire refused to honor
the subpoena. Spire’s investigator, Thomas Vlahoulis, would be called
before the Franklin Committee and confess that he hadn’t interviewed a
single alleged victim, and had referred all victim debriefings to the
OPD.
The Omaha chief of police, Robert Wadman told the Lincoln
Journal that the OPD had pursued all leads and found them
unsubstantiated . “Every step that should have been taken was taken,” he
said. Yet, Chief Robert Wadman would later confess that the OPD never
contacted Eulice, and three months after Wadman’s remarks, the Boys Town
youth worker who had interviewed Eulice told the Omaha World-Herald
that the OPD had never contacted her either.
In February of 1989,
the Franklin subcommittee’s chief investigator sent a memo to its
members. “What appears to be documented cases of child abuse and sexual
abuse dating back several years with no enforcement action taken by the
appropriate agencies is ... mind boggling,” wrote Jerry Lowe. “The
information that became public in 1988 relative to Larry King’s family
connection with one of the principals ... is cause for further concern.”
King
was noticeably absent from the controversy that swirled around him. On
February 7, 1990, US Magistrate Richard Kopf ordered that King be sent
to a federal medical facility in Springfield, Missouri for a “mental
health evaluation” without a formal motion from King’s attorneys. King
was picked up and dispatched the day before President George H.W. Bush
was to speak at a political fundraiser in Omaha. Having named Bush as
one of his personal “friends,” King had reportedly purchased a ticket
for the event and had subsequently been detained by the Secret Service.
On
February 9, the Lincoln Journal reported that both King’s pastor and
his employer deemed him mentally stable—King acquired a “job” at a
flower shop after the credit union’s closing. “I didn’t see any
indication of mental problems,” said the pastor, adding he would be
“surprised if King were declared unfit.” The psychiatrist in Springfield
disagreed, making a diagnosis of “probable delusional paranoid
disorder.”
King was then remanded back to Omaha for a mental
competency hearing—Magistrate Kopf ruled King incompetent to stand trial
and sealed his psychiatric report. Judge William Cambridge then sent
King “forthwith” to the US Medical Facility in Rochester, Minnesota,
where he spent the next five months as a “pretrial detainee.”
Part 2 - Caradori In
July of 1989, Senator Schmit released a three-page report urging his
subcommittee to “find out where the money went and you’ll find the
rest,” because their previous tactics had yet to yield an indictment. As
an example, Schmit cited a $2,800 credit card receipt that showed King
had purchased a coat for a man who was later found shot to death. His
death would unconvincingly be ruled a suicide.
This shift in
direction of the subcommittee prompted three members, including its
chief investigator Jerry Lowe, to resign. In a World-Herald article,
Lowe stated that Schmit informed him that there was “pressure to stop
the investigation,” which Schmit confirmed: “I have gotten phone calls
threatening me. I’ve been told to leave it alone or my kids were going
to be orphans.”
After Lowe resigned, Schmit called upon Gary
Caradori to succeed him as the Franklin subcommittee’s chief
investigator. Assuming undercover disguises from priest to plumber,
Caradori had a talent for finding teenage runaways enmeshed in
prostitution and drugs. Caradori, a former Nebraska state patrolman, had
founded an investigative firm in Lincoln, Nebraska, and the Lincoln
Journal loved him: “When the police tell you their hands are tied ...
when your only witness has skipped town and when the justice system
seems like it’s breaking apart, people call Gary Caradori.”
Caradori
went to work immediately, finding new victims and perpetrators …and
enemies he never anticipated. “An old friend of ours who used to work
for Lincoln Telephone came to the house and told us our phone was being
tapped,” says Caradori’s wife, Sandy, a middle school English teacher.
“He already suspected it. When he arranged meetings over the phone, FBI
agents would already be there when he arrived.” Sandy | Audio Clip One
In
November and December 1989, Caradori interviewed Alisha Owen, Troy
Boner, and Danny King (no relation to Larry King), all in their early
20s. Owen was serving time in the Nebraska Center for Women at York for
writing bad checks, while Boner and Danny King were living in the Omaha
area. Caradori recorded their sworn testimony on over 20 hours of
videotape, where they described being flown around the country as
underage prostitutes and attending grotesquely sadistic pedophiliac
orgies. Larry King, they said, had organized it all.
In December
1989, Schmit’s subcommittee gave the videotaped statements to Attorney
General Spire and Nebraska’s US Attorney.(Caradori videotaped a fourth
victim, Paul Bonacci, in May of 1990, who corroborated Owen, Boner, and
Danny King.)
Almost immediately, “anonymous” sources started
leaking to the Lincoln Journal and the Omaha World-Herald that “one or
both” of the young men videotaped by Caradori had failed FBI polygraphs.
The FBI refused comment, but State Senator Jerry Chizek denounced the
leaks as a violation of federal law: “I’ve been around a lot of
investigations in my 53 years,” he said in a Lincoln Journal article,
“and I’ve never seen one like this in my life.”
Despite the FBI's
attempts to sabotage his investigation, Caradori continued to follow
the money. In his “Investigative Report” of April 13, 1990, he described
his meeting with a former employee of an airplane charter service used
by Larry King. Though the woman was apprehensive about having her name
connected to the “Franklin investigation,” she disclosed that King used
her charter service on a weekly basis, and routinely traveled with a
number of young men who were “very good looking,” dressed in fancy
suits, and “clean cut and clean shaven.” The young men, she noted, never
spoke, which she found extremely “strange.”
Obtaining hundreds
of flight itineraries from two charter services, Caradori had proof that
King chartered the planes, but very few of the itineraries had a
“passenger manifest” or any list of people on the flight. The
itineraries listed several different destinations, but most flights were
to Washington, DC.
By May of 1990, Caradori had compiled a
“Leads List” of 271 people who may have been victims, perpetrators, or
witnesses, and submitted it to state and federal investigators. In June
1990, Caradori warned Schmit’s subcommittee that the Douglas County
grand jury was being deliberately “misled by the influence of the State
Patrol investigator and various people in the FBI.” He voiced his
reluctance to furnish the evidence he was amassing to the Nebraska State
Patrol and FBI (as the subcommittee had ordered), because they were
using it to sabotage his investigation.
Caradori also testified
that he had been trying to obtain pictures of King’s orgies. Some of the
victims he interviewed mentioned a photographer named Rusty Nelson:
“Photographer in the Omaha area who was employed by Mr. King. Alleged to
have taken pornographic photos of children and to have also directed
sexual activity for photographs,” said Nelson’s entry on Caradori’s
“Leads List.” Caradori referenced five videotape exhibits and an OPD
report implicating Nelson in “possible child pornography,” noting that
he lived in a luxury apartment sublet from Larry King.
In 2003, I
located Rusty Nelson living in a Columbus, Nebraska trailer park. I
spend hours with him, judging his veracity, and ultimately discern
numerous contradictory statements that severely impugn his credibility.
He has also been imprisoned for the possession of child pornography.
But, at the same time, Caradori’s investigation clearly tied him to
King.
“King hired me to take pictures of adults and children in
compromising positions,” Nelson tells me. “The pictures showed who the
adults were and who the kids were. I gathered that the purpose was
blackmail. I gathered that the purpose was blackmail and it was
political. The content of the pictures, and the events surrounding them,
would be an instant end to a politician’s career.”
Nelson went
on to say that King had attempted to pressure him into “hardcore”
activities, and their relationship fissured. He says that the FBI then
started to harass him—not to force his disclosures about King’s
pedophile ring, but to silence him. He fled Nebraska and moved to New
Mexico, where Caradori first contacted him. Nelson promised Caradori
incriminating photographs, and they agreed to meet in Chicago.
Caridori,
accompanied by his 8-year-old son A.J., flew his single-engine Piper
Saratoga from Lincoln to Chicago on July 7, 1990. The mission, he said
to his wife, was to meet Nelson and then go to the Major League All-Star
Game with A.J.
“I met with Caradori briefly,” says Nelson. “I
just gave him the pictures and got out of there.” Caradori phoned
Senator Schmit from Chicago, exclaiming, “We got them by the
shorthairs!”
The Piper Saratoga crashed around 2 A.M. on July 11
in a cornfield near Ashton, Illinois, killing both Caradori and his
son. Remnants of the plane were scattered up to 1,800 feet from the
fuselage, indicating that it had broken up in flight. Two days later,
FBI special agent Michael Mott and a colleague delivered a subpoena to
Caradori’s grieving widow, demanding all of her husband’s Franklin
evidence.
Caradori’s investigative assistant, Karen Ormiston,
told the investigators from Britain's Yorkshire Television that someone
had tampered with Caradori’s vehicles before his death and, she felt,
sabotaged his airplane. Many of his possessions were missing from the
wreckage, she said, including the briefcase that presumably held the
photographs. She also asserted that Caradori’s death was effectively the
end of the Franklin investigation, because additional witnesses were
too frightened to emerge from the shadows. “There were many victims,”
Ormiston said. “We knew of more. There are more. They’re still out
there. They’re afraid to come forward.”
Senator Schmit submitted
an affidavit stating that he had been warned that Caradori’s life was in
danger. He also wrote a letter to the National Transportation Safety
Board regarding the missing backseats of Caradori’s plane: “... I do not
know anything about sabotage, but I have been told that a phosphorous
type bomb would, in fact, vaporize metal and any other material with
which it came in contact and that unless someone knew what they were
looking for, it would be difficult, if not impossible, to detect.... I
am sure there will be those who will scoff at such a suggestion, but
there have been entirely too many violent deaths associated with this
investigation....”
The NTSB wasn't able to provide a reason why
Caradori's plane broke up in flight, but it unconvincingly offered pilot
error or instrumnet malfunctions as possible explanations.
The Justice Department is urging a court to affirm individuals’
rights to record police under the First Amendment, filing a statement of
interest in support of a journalist suing over his arrest while
photographing Maryland officers.
In the statement
filed this week in a federal court in Maryland, the Justice Department
argues that not only do individuals have a First Amendment right to
record officers publicly doing their duties, they also have Fourth and
14th Amendment rights protecting them from having those recordings
seized without a warrant or due process. The DOJ urges the court to
uphold these rights and to reject a motion to dismiss from Montgomery Co.in Garcia v. Montgomery Co., a case that has implications for an increasing crop of litigation on the subject in the era of ubiquitous smartphones.
The United States DOJ is concerned that discretionary charges, such as
disorderly conduct, loitering, disturbing the peace and resisting
arrest, are all too easily used to curtail expressive conduct or
retaliate against individuals for exercising their First Amendment
rights. … Core First Amendment conduct, such as recording a police
officer performing duties on a public street, cannot be the sole basis
for such charges,” wrote the DOJ Civil Rights Division.
The contention by these cops that they can't be recorded, performing
their public duties, ostensibly in service of the citizens of their
respective communities, is outrageous. Police officers in this country
are in many cases a law unto themselves, too quick to use their fists,
batons, tasers, mace and firearms against the public they are sworn to
protect. Glad to see the Obama admin and the courts treating this
ridiculous position with the contempt it deserves. In my opinion, every
cop should have a go-pro camera attached to their person at all times,
for their own sake and for the sake of the public
Our founding fathers KNEW that ALL rights come from God.
Natural rights are rights not contingent upon the laws, customs, or
beliefs of any particular culture or government, and therefore universal
and inalienable.
On March 8th 2013 the United States Army suspended it's Tuition Assistance program due to budget cuts, ie: Sequestration. The total program allowed for soldiers to complete a high school diploma,
certificate program or college or master’s degree with the service
paying all tuition and fees up to $4,500 per soldier, per fiscal year.This happened without warning and
is effecting hundreds of thousands of US Soldiers according to the Army Times. All Branches of the US military are feeling the educational squeeze and
will be following suit.
These cuts to US Vets are an efforts by to cope
with the Defense Department's requirement to cut about $46 billion in
spending by October under the sequestration policy that went into effect
on March 1.
One of the biggest incentives to young men and women is the promise of a guaranteed higher education.
I find this denial of the governments contractual agreement to provide for US Veterans is egregious. These young men and women have fought, suffered, and some, have even sustained life long injuries to fulfill their end of the bargain. They come back from war and the government defaults on it's agreed upon contractual promise to provide higher education.
All due to this game of shells called Sequestrationwhich are 1.2 TRILLION over 10 years.
So, for the year of 2013 the total cuts from the US Military budgets are 120 Billion. Where could the US possibly make cuts other then cutting the College tuition to returning US Vets?
Lets See...
1) On Dec 28, 2012Bama Orders Pay Raise for Biden, Members of Congress, Federal Workers. Bama issued an executive order to end the pay
freeze on federal employees, in effect giving SELECT federal workers a
raise. Such as, vp biden, members of Congress, Speaker of the House, and on and on...
2) Bama gives 1 BILLION Dollars to the Muslim brotherhood as KNOWN terrorists organization.
3) Bama forgives over aBILLION dollars in loans which Egypt owes the United States.
3) On January 22nd 2013, Obama gave 20 F-16 fighter jets
to Egypt. The jets, decorated with Egypt’s flag on their tails, are
part of a $213 million “gift” from the United States, including 200
Abrams tanks. The Abrams tank cost 6 million dollars a piece. That is1.2 BILLION dollars in just tanks. So, obama gave another 1.43 BILLION to a country that HATES America.
4) These countries hate AMERICA and yet obama is giving hard earned American tax dollars in the following amounts....
So, instead of cutting the hopes and dreams of loyal, honest, hard working American soldiers why no start cutting some of the blood money being giving to America's enemies? Why not invest in our Vets who have served their country with honor. Is this how the American government creates loyalty by betraying the contractual promises it made to the young men and women of the United States military. Does it make any sense to betray the soldiers who provide the Freedom and Liberty by which the United States of America stands?
Shame on every politician in Washington who accepts a pay raise while the very men and women providing those JOBS are denied their hard fought right to achieve a better life for them and their families.
The word “FREEDOM” is among the list of banned vanity license plate
slogans for Washington D.C., according to a government file obtained by a
Freedom of Information Request filed by the transparency website
GovernmentAttic.org.
So, the very foundation that this nation was built upon is now BANNED in the capital of the United States of America. The reason why the word FREEDOM is banned is because it is a word which is contagious. FREEDOM is the most expensive word in the English language. FREEDOM can only be bought with 'blood, Sweat, and many Tears.
Often by the mothers of slain sons who went forth to secure the FREEDOM this nation is now so callously discarding. FREEDOM is both a Noun and a Verb because it is a thing which can be sought and an action which must by intense desire be accomplished. FREEDOM is the watchword, the secret handshake of men who have witnessed, experienced, and bleed from Tyranny. FREEDOM is the life blood of Democracy and both the poison to those who would enslave the world through usury.
FREEDOM cannot be bought, or sold, or put on a shelve for later use. FREEDOM is a swearword to those foul bankers who lend worthless paper with one hand and steal the gold with the other. FREEDOM can not and will not be extinguished by EVIL men.
However, GOOD men by their INACTION, can starve FREEDOM of the singular ingredient needed to flourish. Action, Verve, Life, Liberty, Peace, Love, all derive their breath and strength from the fertile Soil with which FREEDOM provides to all Life. FREEDOM, dare I say it again, FREEDOM, once more before the they shut me down....
DHS Purchases 2,700 Light-Armored Tanks to Go With Their 1.6 Billion Bullet Stockpile
The Department of Homeland Security (through the U.S. Army Forces
Command) recently retrofitted 2,717 of these ‘Mine Resistant Protected’
vehicles... for service on the streets of the United States.
The new DHS sanctioned ‘Light Armored Tank is built by Navistar Defense
(NavistarDefense.com), a division within the Navistar organization.
Under the Navistar umbrella are several other companies including
International Trucks, IC Bus (they make school buses), Monaco RV
(recreational vehicles), WorkHorse (they make chassis), MaxxForce
(diesel engines), and Navistar Financial (the money arm of the company).
It's hard to not become concerned when you read multiple
news reports about the DHS buying thousands of Light Armored Tanks along with BILLIONS
of rounds of ammo! Thousands of Armed Drones flying over all major American cities by 2015. All to be used on the streets and skies of America.
When did the American People become the enemy of the United States government?
Internment camps for political dissidents in the U.S. aren't a
conspiracy theory they are a cold hard fact.
The Department of Defense document entitled
"INTERNMENT AND RESETTLEMENT OPERATIONS" or FM 3-39.40 proves this
beyond a shadow of a doubt. These re-settlement facilities are designed to keep massive numbers of American citizens behind barbed wire. There are multiple guard towers with snipers who have orders to kill any prisoners who become agitators. These are not family centers for displaced flood, earthquake, storm refugees. These camps on US soil are hard core American gulags which are up and running. Make no mistake these camps are not friendly.

Those who forget the Past are condemned to Repeat it
"And
how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been
like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an
arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say
goodbye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for
example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city,
people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at
every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase,
but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up
in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes,
hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand. The Organs would very
quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and,
notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst; the cursed machine would have
ground to a halt!" -- Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago
Vice president Joe Biden made a idiotic comment during a Facebook chat on Tuesday, saying
he that if he was absent from his home and his wife was home alone and fearful of an intruder HE advised his wife Jill to stand on the deck of their rustic home and
fire the family's double-barreled shotgun in the air, should she sense
an intruder.
So, what he is saying is for his wife to exit her home, place herself in the open and aimlessly fire up into the air, her ONLY 2 shells, from her only weapon, a double barrel shotgun. After doing so ,Vice president Joe Biden purports that the intruder will flea then scene in absolute terror.
Here's a crazy question? What if there is more then one intruder? What if the intruder isn't scared to death by a lone woman who just emptied both of her only shell uselessly up into the air. What is his wife to do after she has fired her only 2 shells into the air and the intruder keeps coming? What is she supposed to do if they begin to fire upon her. What if there is multiple intruders? What is his wife to do then? Throw the shotgun at the intruders? Then What?
Vice president Joe Biden Goes on to say that woman can't possible be able to handle an AR-15. that the AR-15 is an unreliable gun and not very accurate. Vice president Joe Biden also adds that the AR-15 is too complicated for women to handle.
Vice president Joe Biden is a lying politician pretending to be an idiot.
If the AR-15 is so inaccurate and complicated then why does the entire armed forces of the United States Military carry AR-15s? IF the AR-15 is too complicated for women then why is the thousands and thousands of women in the US armed forces daily carry and shoot the AR-15? IF double barrel shotguns are better then the AR-15 then why is it the Department of Homeland security buying up thousands and thousands of AR-15 with almost 2 BILLION rounds of Ammo?
The real truth of the matter is the family of Vice president Joe Biden is protected by a Full detail of Secret Service Agents armed with fully automatic machine guns. So there is ZERO likelihood that his wife would EVER have to fend off an intruder by herself.
You see there is a double standard when it comes to the ruling ELITE in Washington versus the rest of America.
The ELITE in WASHINGTON have fully automatic machine guns and Squads of Secret Service and heavily armed Federal Agents to protect them. BUT for the rest of AMERICA the ruling ELITE in WASHINGTON want us to rely on 120yr old double barrel shotguns to protect ourselves and our family.
I can assure you Vice president Joe Biden's Secret Service detail are not carrying around 100yr old double barrel shotguns to protect him. No, the Secret Service protecting the White House are ALL carrying handguns and fully automatic AR-15's with a 100rds of hollow point ammo per Agent.
I am a most unhappy man. I have unwittingly ruined
my country. A great industrial nation is controlled by its system of
credit. Our system of
credit is concentrated. The growth of the nation, therefore, and all our
activities are in the hands of a few men. We have come to be one of the
worst
ruled, one of the most completely controlled and dominated Governments
in the civilized world no longer a Government by free opinion, no
longer a
Government by conviction and the vote of the majority, but a Government
by the opinion and duress of a small group of dominant men.

I BEG YOU my FELLOW AMERICANS...
For the sake of this nation and it's future...Read the Following info and Arm yourself with the TRUTH.
That, America the beautiful, the Home of the Brave is NOW a Nation of Debt Slaves.
In 1913, the Private Central Bankers of Europe, in particular the
Rothschilds of Great Britain and the Warburgs of Germany, met with their
American financial collaborators on Jekyll Island, Georgia to form a
new banking cartel with the express purpose of forming the Third Bank of
the United States, with the aim of placing complete control of the
United States money supply once again under the control of private
bankers. Owing to hostility over the previous banks, the name was
changed to "The Federal Reserve" system in order to grant the new bank a
quasi-governmental image, but in fact it is a privately owned bank, no
more "Federal" than Federal Express. Indeed, in 2012, the Federal
Reserve successfully rebuffed a Freedom of Information Lawsuit by
Bloomberg News on the grounds that as a private banking corporation and
not actually a part of the government, the Freedom of Information Act
did not apply to the operations of the Federal Reserve. 1913 proved to
be a transformative year for the nation's economy, first with the
passage of the 16th "income tax" Amendment and the false claim that it had been ratified.
Later that same year, and apparently unwilling to risk another
questionable amendment, Congress passed the Federal Reserve Act over
Christmas holiday 1913, while members of Congress opposed to the measure
were at home. This was a very underhanded deal, as the Constitution
explicitly vests Congress with the authority to issue the public
currency, does not authorize its delegation, and thus should have
required a new Amendment to transfer that authority to a private bank.
But pass it Congress did, and President Woodrow Wilson signed it as he
promised the bankers he would in exchange for generous campaign
contributions. Wilson later regretted that decision.
The next year, World War One started, and it is important to remember
that prior to the creation of the Federal Reserve, there was no such
thing as a world war.
World War One started between Austria-Hungary and Serbia, but quickly
shifted to focus on Germany, whose industrial capacity was seen as an
economic threat to Great Britain, who saw the decline of the British
Pound as a result of too much emphasis on financial activity to the
neglect of agriculture, industrial development, and infrastructure (not
unlike the present day United States). Although pre-war Germany had a
private central bank, it was heavily restricted and inflation kept to
reasonable levels. Under government control, investment was guaranteed
to internal economic development, and Germany was seen as a major power.
So, in the media of the day, Germany was portrayed as the prime
opponent of World War One, and not just defeated, but its industrial
base flattened. Following the Treaty of Versailles, Germany was ordered
to pay the war costs of all the participating nations, even though
Germany had not actually started the war. This amounted to three times
the value of all of Germany itself. Germany's private central bank, to
whom Germany had gone deeply into debt to pay the costs of the war,
broke free of government control, and massive inflation followed (mostly
triggered by currency speculators) , permanently trapping the German
people in endless debt.
When the Weimar Republic collapsed economically, it opened the door
for the National Socialists to take power. Their first financial move
was to issue their own state currency which was not borrowed from
private central bankers. Freed from having to pay interest on the money
in circulation, Germany blossomed and quickly began to rebuild its
industry. The media called it "The German Miracle". TIME magazine
lionized Hitler for the amazing improvement in life for the German
people and the explosion of German industry, and even named him TIME
Magazine's Man Of The Year in 1938.
Once again, Germany's industrial output became a threat to Great Britain. Germany's state-issued value based currency was also a direct threat to
the wealth and power of the private central banks, and as early as 1933
they started to organize a global boycott against Germany to strangle
this upstart ruler who thought he could break free of private central
bankers! As had been the case in World War One, Great Britain and other nations
threatened by Germany's economic power looked for an excuse to go to
war, and as public anger in Germany grew over the boycott, Hitler
foolishly gave them that excuse. Years later, in a spirit of candor, the
real reasons for that war were made clear.
As a side note, we need to step back before WW2 and recall Marine Major
General Smedley Butler. In 1933, Wall Street bankers and financiers had
bankrolled the successful coups by both Hitler and Mussolini. Brown
Brothers Harriman in New York was financing Hitler right up to the day
war was declared with Germany. And they decided that a fascist
dictatorship in the United States based on the one on Italy would be far
better for their business interests than Roosevelt's "New Deal" which
threatened massive wealth re-distribution to recapitalize the working
and middle class of America. So the Wall Street tycoons recruited
General Butler to lead the overthrow of the US Government
and install a "Secretary of General Affairs" who would be answerable to
Wall Street and not the people, would crush social unrest and shut down
all labor unions. General Butler pretended to go along with the scheme
but then exposed the plot to Congress. Congress, then as now in the
pocket of the Wall Street bankers, refused to act. When Roosevelt
learned of the planned coup he demanded the arrest of the plotters, but
the plotters simply reminded Roosevelt that if any one of them were sent
to prison, their friends on Wall Street would deliberatly collapse the
still-fragile economy and blame Roosevelt for it. Roosevelt was thus
unable to act until the start of WW2, at which time he prosecuted many
of the plotters under the Trading With The Enemy act. The Congressional
minutes into the coup were finally released in 1967 and became the
inspiration for the movie, "Seven Days in May" but with the true
financial villains erased from the script.
As President, John F. Kennedy understood the predatory nature of private
central banking. He understood why Andrew Jackson fought so hard to end
the Second Bank of the United States. So Kennedy wrote and signed
Executive Order 11110 which ordered the US Treasury to issue a new
public currency, the United States Note.
Kennedy's United States Notes were not borrowed form the Federal
Reserve but created by the US Government and backed by the silver
stockpiles held by the US Government. It represented a return to the
system of economics the United States had been founded on, and was
perfectly legal for Kennedy to do. All told, some four and one half
billion dollars went into public circulation, eroding interest payments
to the Federal Reserve and loosening their control over the nation. Five
months later John F. Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas Texas, and the
United States Notes pulled from circulation and destroyed (except for
samples held by collectors).
John J. McCloy, President of the Chase Manhattan Bank, and President of
the World Bank, was named to the Warren Commission, presumably to make
certain the banking dimensions behind the assassination were concealed
from the public.
As we enter the eleventh year of what future history will most
certainly describe as World War Three, we need to examine the financial
dimensions behind the wars.
Towards the end of World War Two, when it became obvious that the
allies were going to win and dictate the post war environment, the major
world economic powers met at Bretton Woods, a luxury resort in New
Hampshire in July of 1944, and hammered out the Bretton Woods agreement
for international finance. The British Pound lost its position as the
global trade and reserve currency to the US dollar (part of the price
demanded by Roosevelt in exchange for the US entry into the war). Absent
the economic advantages of being the world's "go-to" currency, Britain
was forced to nationalize the Bank of England in 1946. The Bretton Woods
agreement, ratified in 1945, in addition to making the dollar the
global reserve and trade currency, obligated the signatory nations to
tie their currencies to the dollar. The nations that ratified Bretton
Woods did so on two conditions. The first was that the Federal Reserve
would refrain from over-printing the dollar as a means to loot real
products and produce from other nations in exchange for ink and paper;
basically an imperial tax. That assurance was backed up by the second
requirement, which was that the US dollar would always be convertible to
gold at $35 per ounce.
Of course, the Federal Reserve, being a private bank and not
answerable to the US Government, did start overprinting paper dollars,
and much of the perceived prosperity of the 1950s and 1960s was the
result of foreign nations' obligations to accept the paper notes as
being worth gold at the rate of $35 an ounce. Then in 1970, France
looked at the huge pile of paper notes sitting in their vaults, for
which real French products like wine and cheese had been traded, and
notified the United States government that they would exercise their
option under Bretton Woods to return the paper notes for gold at the $35
per ounce exchange rate. Of course, the United States had nowhere near
the gold to redeem the paper notes, so on August 15th, 1971, Richard
Nixon "temporarily" suspended the gold convertibility of the US Federal
Reserve Notes. This "Nixon shock" effectively ended Bretton Woods and
many global currencies started to delink from the US dollar.
Worse,
since the United States had collateralized their loans with the nation's
gold reserves, it quickly became apparent that the US Government did
not in fact have enough gold to cover the outstanding debts. Foreign
nations began to get very nervous about their loans to the US and
understandably were reluctant to loan any additional money to the United
States without some form of collateral. So Richard Nixon started the
environmental movement, with the EPA and its various programs such as
"wilderness zones", Roadless areas", Heritage rivers", "Wetlands", all
of which took vast areas of public lands and made them off limits to the
American people who were technically the owners of those lands. But
Nixon had little concern for the environment and the real purpose of
this land grab under the guise of the environment was to pledge those
pristine lands and their vast mineral resources as collateral on the
national debt. The plethora of different programs was simply to conceal
the true scale of how much American land was being pledged to foreign
lenders as collateral on the government's debts; eventually almost 25%
of the nation itself.
With open lands for collateral already in short
supply, the US Government embarked on a new program to shore up sagging
international demand for the dollar. The United States approached the
world's oil producing nations, mostly in the Middle East, and offered
them a deal. In exchange for only selling their oil for dollars, the
United States would guarantee the military safety of those oil-rich
nations.
The oil rich nations would agree to spend and invest their US paper
dollars inside the United States, in particular in US Treasury Bonds,
redeemable through future generations of US taxpayers. The concept was
labeled the "petrodollar". In effect, the US, no longer able to back the
dollar with gold, was now backing it with oil. Other peoples' oil. And
that necessity to keep control over those oil nations to prop up the
dollar has shaped America's foreign policy in the region ever since.
But as America's manufacturing and agriculture has declined, the
oil producing nations faced a dilemma. Those piles of US Federal Reserve
notes were not able to purchase much from the United States because the
United States had little (other than real estate) anyone wanted to buy.
Europe's cars and aircraft were superior and less costly, while
experiments with GMO food crops led to nations refusing to buy US food
exports. Israel's constant belligerence against its neighbors caused
them to wonder if the US could actually keep their end of the
petrodollar arrangement. Oil producing nations started to talk of
selling their oil for whatever currency the purchasers chose to use.
Iraq, already hostile to the United States following Desert Storm,
demanded the right to sell their oil for Euros in 2000 and in 2002, the
United Nations agreed to allow it under the "Oil for food" program
instituted following Desert Storm. One year later the United States
re-invaded Iraq, lynched Saddam Hussein, and placed Iraq's oil back on
the world market only for US dollars.
The clear US policy shift following 9-11, away from being an
impartial broker of peace in the Mideast to one of unquestioned support
for Israel's aggressions only further eroded confidence in the
Petrodollar deal and even more oil producing nations started openly
talking of oil trade for other global currencies.
Over in Libya, Muammar Gaddafi had instituted a state-owned
central bank and a value based trade currency, the Gold Dinar. Gaddafi
announced that Libya's oil was for sale, but only for the Gold Dinar.
Other African nations, seeing the rise of the Gold Dinar and the Euro,
even as the US dollar continued its inflation-driven decline, flocked to
the new Libyan currency for trade. This move had the potential to
seriously undermine the global hegemony of the dollar. French President
Nicolas Sarkozy reportedly
went so far as to call Libya a “threat” to the financial security of
the world. So, the United States invaded Libya, brutally murdered
Qaddafi ( the object lesson of Saddam's lynching not being enough of a
message, apparently), imposed a private central bank, and returned
Libya's oil output to dollars only. The gold that was to have been made
into the Gold Dinars is, as of last report, unaccounted for.
According to General Wesley Clark, the master plan for the
"dollarification" of the world's oil nations included seven targets,
Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, and Iran (Venezuela, which
dared to sell their oil to China for the Yuan, is a late addition). What
is notable about the original seven nations originally targeted by the
US is that none of them are members of the Bank for International
Settlements, the private central bankers private central bank, located
in Switzerland. This meant that these nations were deciding for
themselves how to run their nations' economies, rather than submit to
the international private banks.
Now the bankers' gun sights are on Iran, which dares to have a
government central bank and sell their oil for whatever currency they
choose. The war agenda is, as always, to force Iran's oil to be sold
only for dollars and to force them to accept a privately owned central
bank.
The German government recently asked for the return of some of
their gold bullion from the Bank of France and the New York Federal
Reserve. France has said it will take 5 years to return Germany's gold.
The United States has said they will need 8 years to return Germany's
gold. This suggests strongly that the Bank of France and the NY Federal
Reserve have used the deposited gold for other purposes, and they are
scrambling to find new gold to cover the shortfall and prevent a gold
run. So it is inevitable that suddenly France invades Mali, ostensibly
to combat Al Qaeda, with the US joining in. Mali just happens to be one
of the world's largest gold producers with gold accounting for 80% of
Mali exports. War for the bankers does not get more obvious than that!
You have been raised by a public school system and media that
constantly assures you that the reasons for all these wars and
assassinations are many and varied. The US claims to bring democracy to
the conquered lands (they haven't; the usual result of a US overthrow is
the imposition of a dictatorship, such as the 1953 CIA overthrow of
Iran's democratically elected government of Mohammad Mosaddegh and the imposition of the Shah, or the 1973 CIA overthrow of Chile's democratically elected government of President Salvador Allende, and the imposition of Augusto Pinochet),
or to save a people from a cruel oppressor, revenge for 9-11, or that
tired worn-out catch all excuse for invasion, weapons of mass
destruction. Assassinations are always passed off as "crazed lone nuts"
to obscure the real agenda.
The real agenda is simple. It is enslavement of the people by
creation of a false sense of obligation.
That obligation is false
because the Private Central Banking system, by design, always creates
more debt than money with which to pay that debt. Private Central
Banking is not science, it is a religion; a set of arbitrary rules
created to benefit the priesthood, meaning the owners of the Private
Central Bank. The fraud persists, with often lethal results, because the
people are tricked into believing that this is the way life is suppoed
to be and no alternative exists or should be dreamt of. The same was
true of two earlier systems of enslavement, Rule by Divine Right and
Slavery, both systems built to trick people into obedience, and both now
recognized by modern civilizatyion as illegitimate. Now we are entering
a time in human history where we will recognize that rule by debt, or
rule by Private Central Bankers issuing the public currency as a loan at
interest, is equally illegitimate. It only works as long as people
allow themselves to believe that this is the way life is supposed to be.
Private Central Banks
do not exist to serve the people, the community, or the nation.
Private
Central Banks exist to serve their owners, to make them rich beyond the
dreams of Midas and all for the cost of ink, paper, and the right bribe
to the right official.
Behind all these wars, all these assassinations, the hundred
million horrible deaths from all the wars lies a single policy of
dictatorship. The private central bankers allow rulers to rule only on
the condition that the people of a nation be enslaved to the private
central banks. Failing that, said ruler will be killed, and their nation
invaded by those other nations enslaved to private central banks.
The so-called "clash of civilizations" we read about on the
corporate media is really a war between banking systems, with the
private central bankers forcing themselves onto the rest of the world,
no matter how many millions must die for it. Indeed the constant
hatemongering against Muslims lies in a simple fact. Like the ancient
Christians (prior to the Knights Templars private banking system) ,
Muslims forbid usury, or the lending of money at interest. And that is
the reason our government and media insist they must be killed or
converted. They refuse to submit to currencies issued at interest. They
refuse to be debt slaves.
America is a Nation of debt slaves. It is also the Home of the FREE and the home of the Brave. It is a Nation of people where the watch word is FREEDOM. There is no greater threat to the National sovereignty of the United States of America then apathy and ignorance. There is still time to wake up and throw off the shackles of Foreign banks.
