I suggest that you stop getting your information from the mainstream press, because everything they cover is more or less a whitewash or often a complete lie. Almost every piece of news on the finance crisis (more like a global genocidal depression, or a huge heist) is total bull. It is ok to read them, but I recommend researching every claim they make. Here are some good sites for news (some total disinfo there too, research ALL info):
Global Research
What Really Happened
Infowars
Prisonplanet
Talousdemokratia
George Washington 2
Rense
Bloomberg (mainstream, sometimes reliable stuff)
It's extremely hard to find reliable stuff anywhere. It takes huge amount of work to check out every fact. Sometimes we have to rely on sources that have proven to be credible. For instance, I don't agree on everything with, say, Alex Jones. Still most of his info checks out so I give him credit. Point being, suspect everything. Double-check every bit of info, if you can. And most importantly: Do Not Blidnly Trust corporate government media. Oh yeah, and stop watching TV, it does you no good. Quite the opposite.

British Scientists Condemn Using Children in GM Food Trials as Unacceptable
by Sean Poulter
Children have been used as 'lab rats' in GM rice trials that were carried out in breach of ethics rules drawn up in response to the medical crimes of Nazi Germany, it is claimed.

Youngsters aged 6-10 were fed so-called Golden Rice, which has been modified to contain enhanced levels of beta carotene or vitamin A.
The rice is being developed to combat Vitamin A deficiency, which is linked to damage to the sight, poor brain development and immune system failure.
However high consumption can also have harmful toxic effects and cause birth defects.
Critics are furious that the GM rice was not put through animal feeding trials to ensure it was safe before being given to children.
The decision to use the children has been condemned as 'completely unacceptable' by a group of 22 scientists - all GM critics - from Britain and around the world.
They claim it is indicative of moves by the biotech lobby, led by the USA and biotech firms, to force GM food into the mouths of the world without proper assessment.
The project was financed and run through the US National Institutes of Health and involved children in China and America.
The scientists have written an open letter to the team behind the experiments, condemning the way they were conducted.
It states: 'We are writing to express our shock and unequivocal denunciation of the experiments being conducted by your colleagues which involve the feeding of genetically modified Golden Rice to human subjects.'
The letter says there has been 'woefully inadequate pre-clinical evaluation' of the rice.
The scientists argue there is a large body of evidence showing GM food production can trigger gene mutations which 'can result in health damaging effects when GM food products are fed to animals'.
The letter adds: 'Our greatest concern is that this rice, which is engineered to overproduce beta carotene, has never been tested in animals'.
It says there is evidence that certain chemicals derived from beta carotene 'are both toxic and cause birth defects'.
Critics of the GM experiments says the Nuremburg code states that children under 10 are not considered legally capable of giving consent to participation in such experiments.
They say the code also requires that human guinea pigs should not be used if scientists have an alternative experimental method.
Thirdly, experiments on humans should not be conducted until tests with animals have identified potential hazards.
Among the leading bodies behind the GM Golden rice project are the biotech company Syngenta, the Rockefeller Foundation and the charitable foundation set up by Microsoft boss Bill Gates.
The list of signatories to the protest letter includes Malcolm Hooper, emeritus professor of medicinal chemistry at Sunderland University, who said: 'This type of experimentation is frightening - children as lab rats - it is not on.'
Another is Prof David Schubert, of the Salk Institute of Biological Studies, San Diego, who said: 'It is completely immoral to feed this rice to children without proper safety testing...It's like putting a new drug on the market with no toxicology or safety trials.'
Other signatories include Prof Carlo Leifert, director of the Tesco Centre for Organic Agriculture at Newcastle University; and Dr Stanley WB Ewen.
Dr Ewen was involved in rat feeding trials in Scotland in 1999 which linked GM potatoes to harmful toxic effects.
Dr Brian John, of GM Free Cymru said: 'These irresponsible and dangerous trials must be stopped immediately, and the Golden Rice Project team must put its much-vaunted product through a full and transparent testing process before it is allowed to pass the lips of any other human being.'
Project manager at the Golden Rice Organisation, Dr Adrian Dubock, denied that the Nuremburg Code has been breached. He said the feeding trials had been approved by independent ethical review panels.
'Parents were not given financial rewards for their children's participation - to avoid undue pressure on poor families - but children were rewarded with school bags and pencils and paper as a thank you for participating,' he said.
Dr Dubock said 6,000 people around the world die every day due to illnesses related to failing immune systems where Vitamin A deficiency is a factor.
'The Golden Rice contains the food colours found everywhere in coloured natural foods and the environment...There is no possible way the trials could do any harm to the participants.'
Dr Dubock said animal experiments would not have helped. 'As humans are the designed beneficiaries of Golden Rice, animal testing could not answer the questions posed,' he said.
This appears odd as all GM foods, which are designed to be eaten by humans, are required to go through animal testing by food safety authorities in many countries.

Nothing new under the sun folks. Bill Gates' father was one of the founders of Planned Parenthood which is/was also funded by the Rockefeller foundation. Both these families have a loooooong history in the (crypto-)eugenics tradition. Remember that seed vault in Norway? Guess who funds that project? Well, both these families and big agribusiness, including Monsanto. Ever heard of Monsanto? Does l-tryptophan ring a bell? How about bovine growth hormone? Agent Orange? Dioxin? Screwing the lives of small farmers. Seed monopolies, farmers killing themselves in India. Use google. Check out the documentary The World According to Monsanto.
Here's William Engdahl explainin' sum stuff for ya:

Telegraph censorship
Funniest thing ever. There was an article on The Telegraph titled: European banks may need 16.3 trillion bail out EC-dcoument warns. Well, actually the article is still there but they changed it. It is now called "European bank bail-out could push EU into crisis". So they took some stuff out of there. If you take a look at the url, the web address, the title of the original article is still there. But umm... The figures and some parts of the text that mention the secret document AND the figures... are not.
I'll post the filtered content here:
"European Commission officials have estimated that impaired assets may amount to 44pc of EU bank balance sheets. The Commission estimates that so-called financial instruments in the trading book total £12.3 trillion (13.7 trillion euros), equivalent to about 33pc of EU bank balance sheets.
In addition, so-called 'available for sale instruments' worth £4trillion (4.5 trillion euros), or 11pc of balance sheets, are also added by the Commission to arrive at the headline figure of £16.3 trillion."
Now I have seen that original content on the site with my very eyes. Someone wanted it out of there. I first noticed it on Prisonplanet.com forum and I bet it's still there (they usually copy the article and the link). If you don't believe me just google the url to the article and see what other blogs and sites have to say about it.
Why was the content removed? Obviously they were in hurry because they didn't have the time TO CHANGE THE ORIGINAL URL. Why?

I've been looking for this video for a while. It's incredible. Every time I watch it my jaw drops. Take a look, it might give you some perspective.
Defense Department Establishes Civilian Expeditionary Workforce
I'll post this article from Defenselink.mil and highlight the good part:
"By Gerry J. Gilmore
American Forces Press Service
WASHINGTON, Jan. 27, 2009 – The Defense Department is forming a civilian expeditionary workforce that will be trained and equipped to deploy overseas in support of military missions worldwide, according to department officials.
The intent of the program “is to maximize the use of the civilian workforce to allow military personnel to be fully utilized for operational requirements,” according to a Defense Department statement.
Deputy Defense Secretary Gordon England signed Defense Department Directive 1404.10, which outlines and provides guidance about the program, on Jan. 23.
Certain duty positions may be designated by the various Defense Department components to participate in the program. If a position is designated, the employee will be asked to sign an agreement that they will deploy if called upon to do so. If the employee does not wish to deploy, every effort will be made to reassign the employee to a nondeploying position.
The directive emphasizes, however, that volunteers be sought first for any expeditionary requirements, before requiring anyone to serve involuntarily or on short notice. Overseas duty tours shall not exceed two years.
Employees in deployable-designated positions will be trained, equipped and prepared to serve overseas in support of humanitarian, reconstruction and, if absolutely necessary, combat-support missions.
The program also is open to former and retired civilian employees who agree to return to federal service on a time-limited status to serve overseas or to fill in for people deployed overseas.
Program participants are eligible for military medical support while serving in their overseas duty station.
All participants will undergo pre- and post-deployment medical testing, including physical and psychological exams.
Defense civilians reassigned from their normal duty to serve overseas will be granted the right to return to the positions they held prior to their deployment or to a position of similar grade, level and responsibility within the same organization, regardless of the deployment length .
Families of deployed Defense Department civilian employees shall be supported and provided with information on benefits and entitlements and issues likely to be faced by the employee during and upon return from a deployment.
Defense civilian employees who participate in the expeditionary program shall be treated with high regard as an indication of the department’s respect for those who serve expeditionary requirements.
Expeditionary program participants’ service and experience shall be valued, respected and recognized as career-enhancing.
Participants who meet program requirements would be eligible to receive the Secretary of Defense Medal for the Global War on Terrorism."
Now, here's Obama:
Rahm Emanuel further explains the thing:
Now here's a groovy site, USA Service. Wanna sign up? It's voluntary, just as the defense deparment says it is, for now.
