America's withdrawal from Iraq not what it seems
Everywhere you look there is a title that the Iraqi war is over and the American troops are at last coming home. After seven years of war the last brigade of American troops have left Iraq but this is very misleading. Yes, some troops have gone back to their families but 50 000 troops have remained and some have been sent across to Afghanistan. The Obama administration is not breaking any promises because that is exactly what they said they will do. They said there will be 50 000 recovery troops left in Iraq to help support the Iraqi government until the police have been properly trained.
They are just twisting their words so that the people of America comes to the conclusion that the 'occupation' has ended while in actual fact it did not. Their promise to leave Iraq entirely in 2011 is also deceptive as private contractors will be in place to continue where the military left of. Sure there will be no 'military' presence but the American people will still be paying for the private contractors, who are American - there is not much of a difference just a official title. It has worked in the past, Japan is a perfect example of where there are still a strong American presence even after all these years.
Their occupation 'ended' in 1951 but there are still over a 1 000 US troops on this one small country. If you look at the map it is clear how wide spread the U.S military are around the world. The excuse that those bases have only a skeleton crew is mostly false. Look at the numbers:
Company - 62 to 190 soldiers. Three to five platoons form a company, which is commanded by a captain with a first sergeant as the commander's principle NCO assistant. An artillery unit of equivalent size is called a battery, and a comparable armoured or air cavalry unit is called a troop.
There is no set size (number of troops) assigned to any specific element. The size of an element of command depends primarily upon the type of unit and mission. For example, an aviation company would have a different number of troops assigned than an infantry company because it has a different mission, different equipment, and therefore different requirements.
There are not only 50 000 soldiers staying behind but troops meaning it might be up to ten times that amount. People tend to think of troop as one soldier when in fact it's a group of them and someone who is part of a troop is called a trooper. Does the American government use poor English or they are being misleading on purpose?
The fact remains that not all U.S soldiers have been withdrawn from Iraq.

Spanish Bullfight goes horribly wrong - forty people injured
Forty people was injured during a Spanish bullring 'performance' in Tafalla, northern Spain. The youngest person rushed to hospital was a ten year old boy who received an abdominal injury, he is reportedly in intensive care at a Pamplona hospital.
This specific event was where the people try to provoke the bull into charging. The bull damaged his horn trying to jump the enclosure and was being returned to the corral when it suddenly charged and jumped the 1.5 meters barrier where the bullfighters and officials stand. In the video chaos ensues as he lands in the middle of the spectators just when things seem to calm down someone threw a cape at the bull causing it to charge once again. It was eventually cornered and roped in.
This all comes a month after the north-eastern region of Spain, Catalonia banned bullfighting. Giving more ammunition to those who oppose this tradition of killing bulls as a sport and wants it banned throughout Spain.

Hindenburg omen strikes again, second time in two weeks
For the second time in one week the Hindenburg Omen hit again. The Hindenburg omen is a technical analysis pattern, named after the Hindenburg disaster of 1937 in wichh the famous accident of the zeppelin happened.
The last time the Hindenburg Omen happened was only a few days ago and that got made everyone on the stock market freak out. This past Friday the Hindenburg Omen occurred again.
Even the creator of the Omen is taking it serious this time. We've been warned countless times by trend forecaster Gerald Celente that there is a massive economical crash coming and this might just be it. The Hindenburg Omen has predicted correctly every market crash in the last 35 years.
11 year old Albino girl killed and mutilated in Swaziland
Another brutal killing of a innocent child because she is born a albino. Swaziland has been targeted by ritual killing of Albino's for witchcraft. The witchdoctors claim that albino's blood and body parts makes special potent muti. Even though the possession and trade of human body parts are illegal it does not deter these barbarians.
Banele Nxumalo, a 11 year old girl, was fetching water for her family with a group of friends, when a car stopped and two hooded gunmen started harassing the girls. They told the girls to run and as Banele's friends started running one of the men shot her. He then proceeded to chop of her head and right hand. This all happened in the day at a river in Sigudvuma in front of children. They left her severed body only taking her hand and severed head, got in the car and drove off.
The community was alerted by the screams of the other children. Police was quick to arrive and tried to catch up to the culprits but was unable to find them. Her 20 year old brother, Sondelani, was close by and tried to chase after the man who shot and beheaded her but failed. The car had tinted windows and four occupants: the two men who climbed out, one woman and a child.
Her grandmother thinks someone must have sold the girl for muti because the car was spotted looking for her earlier that day in the area. The whole community has been shocked by this brutal killing of the third grader from Patmos primary school. Her father Luvalo Nxumalo said he still needs to come to terms with the brutal killing.
Police spokesperson, superintendent Wendy Hleta has condemned the killing of Banele and noted that Shiselweni region has become a hunting ground where albino children are the targets.
Swaziland borders on South Africa and Mozambique.
Striker 101
August 19, 2010 by Striker 101
It appears each and every one believes that an Israeli strike on Iran will simply be by fighter planes, bombers, missiles, etc. You might want to consider what unthinkable weapons Israel has developed over the past twenty years. Israel is the most advanced nation on the planet in Tesla Weaponry due to the scientific brain drain from the former USSR. Why do you think the Russians fought so desperately to prevent the possible hundreds - possibly thousands of Jewish scientists from leaving Russia and the Ukraine. You should Read Chapters 38 and 39 again in the Book of the Prophet Ezekiel. No other minds on the planet can match the scientifically inventive mind of the Jewish scientist – and Israel has more of those creative minds working for it on unimaginable weapons - than any other nation on earth. Raid on Antebe - Miricle landings of several US made C-130's or undisclosed cloaking technology we think belongs only in the Star Trek series? I don't think so. Guns and other weapons freezing up and will not fire - invented by a Canadian Jew who provided that technology to the Israeli government. Science fiction? No so.
As the Prophet Ezekiel so clearly stated more than 2,500 years ago in Chapters 38 and 39 –
THIS WILL NOT BE A CONVENTIONAL WAR OR EVEN SIMPLY A WAR INVOLVING NUCLEAR (NBC) WEAPONS -
When this inevitable Gog and Magog war starts – Israel will deploy it’s unimaginable weapons against Iran, Russia, Turkey, Syria, Lebanon, Gaza and a whole multitude of other listed nations in that region and beyond… whom they have been studying and know very well which ones mean them harm or good. Russia has these weapons too – and the US to a limited degree – but Israel - with its immense scientific brain power drained from the former USSR … where the scientists were forced to work on those weapons …. has advanced these and have created and perfected those they worked on in Russia by forced labor – and the OTHERS they have invented and perfected since being a nation. Including copunter measures to those the Russians may have. It won’t be the past conventional wars Israel has fought.
With the weapons that Israel will deploy – the missiles, planes, and other weapons of war employed by Iran, Russia, etc. will fall to the ground in flight and become useless. Israeli fighter squadrons and bombers will utilize devices far superior to U.S. stealth technology or even Russian Tesla technology to infiltrate Muslim airspace and reek havoc on their military bases and facilities before their enemies know what hit them. Russia won't be spared either for her foolishness in bringing about this war.
If you believe that the US has been friends with Israel only due to our Judeo (Christian) ties with those ancient people – you are quite mistake. In addition to that reason, our alliance with Israel is due to the fact that the Pentagon and the White House are aware of Israel’s superior military technological and scientific capabilities – which are far superior to what we may have in our total arsenal. The weapons that Israel will deploy will cause the various enemy armies to begin fighting against each other. Affecting the very minds of those advancing armies. In other words, they will do Israel’s fighting against one another for her.
Read a little further into Ezekiel’s prophecies and you will find that when this war starts all you who think you are dwelling in safety far away from the war zone will suddenly become really surprised to find that the war has reached you in the far away Isles – unfortunately, even here in the US.
The fact is that this war is inevitable due to it having been forecasted more than 2,600 years ago – and yes, Israel is a one bomb nation – if she waits for that one nuclear bomb to simply fall on her and her citizens. She cannot wait – but will have to initiate the hostility – and deploy unconventional weapons that Nikola Tesla and Jewish scientists in Israel have created – to defend and ensure her survival. When it’s over – the new borders of Israel may have extended to the Nile River in Egypt and to the Euphrates River in Iraq. (Read Genesis). If it doesn’t result from this war it will from Armageddon – that’s for certain.

Scalar Weapons: Tesla's Doomsday Machine? No incoming missiles or airplanes warn of the hellish destruction that is almost upon us. No bombs fall, no hidden explosives tick away ominously. People go about their daily lives on a beautiful day. When suddenly, every molecule within 50 miles leaps to a temperature hotter than the sun, vaporizing every living creature, shattering every rock into plasma, obliterating every construction. The atmosphere flashes to dissociated gases and expands to many times its size, kicking off a terrible shockwave that rips three times around the planet. The awful event lasts less than a second, and not even dirt remains behind. Ash and slag rain for several hours. This is a scalar weapon, a power unlike anything in conventional physics, said to be invented by the obsessive genius Nikola Tesla.
If the surrounding Muslim nations, with the help of the former USSR (Russia) could have destroyed Israel – they would have accomplished it quite some time ago. The fact is they are unable to do so.
NEW ISRAELI FORCE FIELD WEAPON

New Israeli "Force Field" Weapon
Does Israel have scalar electromagnetic weapons? Are scalar weapons about to begin creeping out of the closet?
Kent at STA has found this very interesting news video about a new Israeli "force field" defensive weapon for tanks which looks very much like the kind of "tesla shield" described by Tom Bearden in his book " Fer de Lance ." Such a shield is produced by the interference of two scalar beams and will explode or dud any missile which hits it, thus protecting the target.
Practically NO details are given as to how this technology works. It MAY or MAY NOT be scalar in nature, that is, use longitudinal EM waves to create the "dome." It would be very surprising if something that was scalar in nature would be announced publicly.
You can view the video at this link:
http://www3.youtube.com/watch?
In the video RPG missiles are shown flying along until they hit the invisible electromagnetic shield, at which point they are detonated, at a safe point out from the shield center.
In Fer de Lance, Bearden has the following artist's conception of a tesla shield in action. Compare to the missiles getting exploded when hit the invisible shield in the above newscast video. Interference patterns of two longitudinal EM beams create a sphere or hemisphere of ordinary (but intense) transverse EM energy.
Video - China is the world's biggest economy
Michael Chossudovsky is the director for the Center for research of Globalization and he appeared on a interview with RT news and said that the Chinese economy is already the largest economy in the world and that might soon mean the end of US domination. The prediction is that China's economy might be the largest in the world by 2020 but according to this interview on RT, we might see something different happening, soon.
Celebrating tolerance: Gay bar right next to Ground Zero Mosque
Being inspired by Codoba House message of tolerance and understanding by them building a Mosque at Ground Zero, Greg Gutfeld from the Fox News late night show Red Eye has decided to build a Gay bar next to it. In a interview with Glen Beck, Greg explained how the idea was formed:
Well, you know, I was thinking — I went on to their Web site, the Cordoba House website. It's a lovely website, and they talk about preaching tolerance and communication.
And I thought how interesting is it that they are preaching tolerance and communication to Americans? I thought, wouldn't it be great to test their tolerance?
So I figured let's open an Islam-friendly gay bar next door to the mosque. That is my proposal and I'm sticking by it. I'm not a good businessman and I'm a terrible activist, but this might be the greatest idea I've ever had.
Greg Gutfield has already inquired if there was a available plot and there was - right next to the planned Mosque. He has also have rallied many investors and supporters of the idea. The bar will target gay Islamic men, there will be a alcohol free floor and will be open 24 hours for the men who would rather keep their sexuality secret.
For those who are wondering; Greg is not a homosexual, he is in fact Roman Catholic married man. Greg is mostly known for his political satire and as assured those who thought he was making a joke that he is in fact quite serious. He even went to so far as to send the Cordoba House a e-mail informing them of his plan, they did not respond however he did not give up and contacted them on twitter and this is how they responded:
You are free to open whatever you like. If you won't consider the sensibilities of Muslims, you are not going to build dialogue.
But why is that? They did not consider the sensibilities of those families who lost loved ones in the 9/11 attack that was done in the name of Islam. Do they only want tolerance from others but are unwilling to show tolerance themselves? This will show the world what's really their objective to build at the site of 9/11: are they there to preach tolerance or is it a Victory mosque to take claim on Ground Zero.
This is from Gutfeld's site:
Bottom line: I hope that the mosque owners will be as open to the bar, as I am to the new mosque. After all, the belief driving them to open up their centre near Ground Zero, is no different than mine.
My place, however, will have better music.
For those who are unaware of the practises of Islam, each day at prayer hours they 'sing' over loudspeakers from the top of the mosque. It's called the adhān - call to prayer and is done five times a day and may last up to 10 minutes. That's almost a hour a day that the whole section of New York will be forced to listen to Muslims praying over a loudspeaker and they will be praying in Arabic so people won't have a clue what's being said. All of this in name of tolerance.
Gutfeld outlined his plans on Tuesday’s Red Eye:

Vanuatu volcano causes ash cloud over pacific
The Wellington (Australia) Volcanic Ash Advisory centre warned of a ash cloud that covers 100 nautical square miles and 1.8km's high that is in the vicinity of the volcano.
Tourists are also banned from visiting the volcano the government warned. “We saw very large explosions and important explosions outside the crater rim. All these bombs could reach all the villages around the volcano. We have a new kind of activity with a lot of ash falls, very large ash plumes and very important gas.”
