Unusual Volume of Call Contracts Traded, Suspicion Rises

Shepard Ambellas and Alex Thomas

The Intel Hub

The abnormally high volume of call contracts that were traded in the last few days is highly suspicious and should be investigated. Before 9/11 we saw the sell off of American Airlines stock and in the weeks leading up to the BP oil spill we saw the same with Goldman Sachs. While this could simply signify a buyout of Qwest by another entity, we can not rule out the possibility that this is a positioning play for a future false flag cyber attack, used to shut down the internet and move to what is known as the internet 2 system.

The ruling elite have eagerly awaited the launch of the internet 2 system. They want nothing more then to implement the total systematic dismantlement of the internet to stop the flow of real information to the people of the world.

Further research of the internet 2 reveals that Qwest has a big hand in this new system, a system that is intended to be a total and completely controlled, limited, and monitored form of the internet, allowing only massive corporate websites to operate on a subscription type basis. The internet 2 will be a glorified cable TV service, essentially letting you surf only what the government allows you to.

Alternative news sites will be a thing of the past as the uncontrolled media, due to the lock down of the internet, no longer has the ability to survive.

At the very least we need this information to go viral, the more people who are aware of these deals the better. We might be able to stop or derail a future event by spreading this information to all our personal contacts. The use of social networks such as Twitter, Youtube, and Facebook can be an extremely effective tool.

Montagraph has already done some impressive ground work on the situation. Please check out the interview Monty did with investigative reporter DallasGoldBug:

JOHN PILGER — Flying the flag, faking the news

Loud noises from Washington about a US pull-out from Iraq are a poor disguise for America’s determination to keep waging war. And the same sort of spin is at work here in Britain

My Catbird Seat

Edward Bernays, the American nephew of Sigmund Freud, is said to have invented modern propaganda. During the First World War, he was one of a group of influential liberals who mounted a secret government campaign to persuade reluctant Americans to send an army to the bloodbath in Europe. In his book Propaganda, published in 1928, Bernays wrote that the “intelligent manipulation of the organised habits and opinions of the masses is an important element in democratic society”, and that the manipulators “constitute an invisible government which is the true ruling power in our country”. Instead of propaganda, he coined the euphemism “public relations”.

The American tobacco industry hired Bernays to convince women that they should smoke in public. By associating smoking with women’s liberation, he made cigarettes “torches of freedom.” In 1954, he conjured a communist menace in Guatemala as an excuse for overthrowing the democratically elected government, whose social reforms were threatening the United Fruit Company’s monopoly of the banana trade. He called it a “liberation”.

Bernays was no rabid right-winger. He was an elitist liberal who believed that “engineering public consent” was for the greater good. This could be achieved by the creation of “false realities” which then became “news events”. Here are examples of how it is done these days.

A "Peace and Truth" Leader Silenced

Was Charlie silenced by the G20 Security Apparatus? In the first video, you will hear discussion about "plea deals" which allow arrested protesters at the G20 Summit in Toronto, Canada to go free without admitting any wrong doing. In the second video you will hear from Charlie.

I think the "police state" in which we now live has exercised its power to silence a peaceful protester, a genuine leader in the "peace and truth" movement! This is a sad day.....

Charlie says g’bye to ‘The Love Police’

WeAreChange

In a new video put out by Charlie Veitch a.k.a. The Love Police, he says goodbye to his satirical megaphoning ways. Will Charlie put down the megaphone forever? Will he be able to resist the urge of blasting Metropolitan cops with loving messages? We will all have to patiently wait and hope for his safe return, who knows maybe he’ll find another niche in expressing his comedic loving relief to a “movement” of such controversy and contradictions. Charlie it has been good, we wish you all the best! Cheers!

Cameraman arrested for calling cops Nazis

Prisonplanet.com
Aug 24, 2010

Account from the Prisonplanet.com reader who was arrested

On Tuesday, August 17th 2010 at around 7:45pm I returned home to find one cop interrogating a woman who was apparently pulled over across from my driveway.

I got out my video camera to record the incident happening across the street from within my garage. I was leaning on the back of my car (in garage) to steady the picture and recorded for several minutes. Two more patrol cars, now totaling three, had arrived.

The lady was standing outside her car, looking quite distressed at the situation. Cops then begin to search her vehicle and then let her go. One of the officers asked if I was “enjoying myself” from the road. I told him “you are a Nazi”. He cupped an ear like he couldn’t hear me, so I said it louder, “you’re a Nazi”.

One officer then pointed at me and said, “Arrest him for interfering”. Even though their traffic stop was complete and the lady driver was back in her vehicle preparing to leave. The cops were also preparing to leave when I spoke this.

Then he and his cohorts came up my driveway and into my garage. I told them all to leave and that they were not welcome. I repeated it several ways such as, “you are trespassing”, “leave my property”, etc…

One of three officers asked for my ID and I stated that I was on my property and had committed no crime. He quickly became aggressive and intimidating… belligerently pointing “I am a cop. Here is my badge. Show me your ID, NOW!”

I asked what he would do if I refused and he said I would be arrested. I then produced my ID and continued to request they leave my property, assuring them I had no warrants and clean history.

The second officer went to his vehicle and upon his return barked that he would arrest me with “hate crime” or “racial slur” for calling him a Nazi. I pointed out that Nazi was a political party, not a race.

After calling in my credentials, Ptl. Ben Runnels told me to put my hands behind my back. I asked, “Am I being detained?”. Ben replied, “Put your hands behind you back.” I asked if I was being arrested and if so what charge. He said, “Yes, disorderly conduct”

I put my hands behind my back and turned around. Ben took the camera haphazardly and bound my hands.

After marching me down the driveway next to their vehicles, all three began sifting through my pockets and locking the cuffs. The camera was turned off sometime around here.

I asked them to let me close the garage and they said, “no, we’ll close it when we’re done here”.

The lady who was originally pulled over had then turned around back towards Airport Rd. (was facing away) and stopped next to the shake down taking place near where she was originally pulled over. She rolled her window down calmly said, “thank you” several times. After she departed, the cops laughed and said she was thanking the “tree” behind us.

They collected the possessions on my person and put me in their paddy wagon.

Next all three officers went back into my garage, rummaged through my car and found my dog Ike in the back seat. Ike happily jumped out and pee’d on the grass while the enforcers pointed tasers at him. Then one of the cops discovered the leash from the back seat of my car and put it around his neck, then lead him inside without entering himself.

Next, while I was watching from caged patrol card, they rummaged in the front seat and found one of my many legal firearms. This was all done with the excuse of trying to find the garage door button or opener. The button to the garage door was on the wall, directly behind him but they decided to violate my 4th amendment after kidnapping me for exercising my 1st.

I was informed after they found the garage door opener and closing the door that I would now be charged with “felon in possession of a firearm”. I said, “who’s a felon?” and they shut the door and took me to jail.

Since I was charged with a felony, court appearance would be required to issue a bond. This meant I needed to stay in the felony side of jail with rapists, pedophiles, and others until the next court date. The man I was locked in a small cell came onto me several times and was completely insane.

The next afternoon was court. Upon arriving I was informed the felony gun charge would not be pursued, but the misdemeanor of Disorderly Conduct would stick. They are keeping my camera which contains the evidence of their violations of my rights by suggesting it evidence of my “disorder” charge.

Luckily I was booked on Tuesday, since court is only on Wednesday. Had it been Thursday, I would be locked into the cell for an entire week… all for a bogus charge that was dropped.

Immediately after being released on misdemeanor bond and having spend nearly 24 hours in felony jail, the firearm was returned to my possession.

Divide and Rule

by Mark Daniels

Webster Tarpley, author, journalist, lecturer, and critic of US foreign and domestic policy, appeared on the Alex Jones radio show today and discussed the wedge issues currently exploited in the "corporate media" to divide the American people in order for the Global Power Structure to maintain control. The concept of "divide and rule" as a means to control the people is not a new idea.

According to Wikipedia, "divide and rule (derived from Latin divide et impera) (also known as divide and conquer) is a combination of political, military and economic strategy of gaining and maintaining power by breaking up larger concentrations of power into chunks that individually have less power than the one implementing the strategy. In reality, it often refers to a strategy where small power groups are prevented from linking up and becoming more powerful, since it is difficult to break up existing power structures". It is said that the British used the strategy to gain control of the large territory of India by keeping its people divided along lines of religion, language, or caste, taking control of petty princely states in India piecemeal.

The use of this technique is meant to empower the sovereign to control subjects, populations, or factions of different interests, who collectively might be able to oppose his rule. Machiavelli identifies a similar application to military strategy, advising in Book VI of The Art of War [3] (Dell'arte della guerra [4]), that a Captain should endeavor with every art to divide the forces of the enemy, either by making him suspicious of his men in whom he trusted, or by giving him cause that he has to separate his forces, and, because of this, become weaker.

Of course, Wikipedia's descriptions focus primarily on the use of "divide and rule" by a sovereign ruler or nation. Today, we are facing a much more sinister oppressor in the form of Global Government; the long sought after establishment of a Global Scientific Dictatorship by a very few extremely powerful and wealthy families.

The use of "wedge issues" are frequently employed in order to gain a foothold politically which allows a political entity to implement otherwise unacceptable policies. A wedge issue is a social or political issue, often of a divisive or otherwise controversial nature, which splits apart or creates a "wedge" in the support base of one political group. Wedge issues can be advertised, publicly aired, and otherwise emphasized by an opposing political group, in an attempt to weaken the unity of the divided group, or to entice voters in the divided group to give their support to the opposing group. The use of wedge issues gives rise to wedge politics.

In a recent article, Wedge Issues Divide Politicians from Independents, Ed Hornick (CNN) reports:

The current ruckus over building an Islamic center and mosque near ground zero, calls to change the 14th Amendment and other so-called "wedge" issues are roiling up each party's base, but they're turning off independents, analysts say.

The article goes on to report that Jacqueline Salit, president of independentvoting.org, a national strategy and organizing center for independents says

"I think there's more and more of a steady recognition that these kind of wedge issues and political manipulation, sensationalism and opportunism is exactly what is degrading the American political process and our democracy."

What we are witnessing in America today with the Ground Zero Mosque, Shirley Sherrod, Immigration, Same Sex Marriage, etc. is a deliberate modern day attempt by the Global Elites to, at minimum, divert attention away from the global economic crises and the criminal activities of Wall Street, the "Federal Reserve" and more specifically, the Central Banking Cartel.

Upon examining the financial backing for the Ground Zero Mosque, for example, we find the Council on Foreign Relations and Fox News as major contributors. (see Steve Watson's recent article, Ground Zero Mosque Imam is Globalist Stooge and Today on the Alex Jones Show featuring Webster Tarpley)

The constant barrage of propaganda streaming out of the corporate media is nothing more than a veiled attempt to divide the people into factions while the "False Dichotomy" of the Republicans and Democrats offer "solutions" that only serve to inflame an already manic display of bigotry and hatred. Does the two-party system really offer the people a choice? No. They are currently controlled by the Global Elites who are financing their campaigns and directing their policies.

What has either party done in recent history to help the people of this country? Nothing....Absolutely Nothing! That is, nothing positive. They have managed to usher in a era of global economic collapse, racial, ethnic, and socio-economic division; and the destruction of civil liberties.

I would also argue that the deliberate division of the populace along the aforementioned lines, allows the advancement of the police state; with increased unrest, we are very likely to see riots and violence which will allow the Global Elites to fully implement military rule in America, thus leading us to the "perceived need" for Global Government.

We can only pray for their ultimate failure and demise while also refusing to contribute to the social, political, religious, and economic "unrest" which they seek to foment. Does this mean that you should do nothing? On the contrary, do more...examine the new slate of leaders who are presenting the truth about the "Establishment", share the "truth" with your family, friends, and neighbors; Most importantly, educate yourself about the issues that matter.

Logical Fallacies: Democracy In Action

Let’s say we are at an electronics store to buy a television. A sales associate comes up and asks us what we want. We proceed to tell her that we are interested in buying a TV. She tells us about the two brands they offer: Brand A and Brand B. The sales associate then asks, “So, are you going to buy Brand A?” We tell her we are not interested in Brand A. In response, the sales associate rings us up for Brand B. In this example, the sales associate has commuted the false dilemma fallacy.

In their textbook, Critical Thinking, Moore and Parker say, “the false dilemma fallacy occurs when you limit considerations to only two alternatives although other alternatives may be available.” In our example, the sales associate limited her considerations to us either buying Brand A or Brand B; however, there are many other alternatives, such as going to another electronics store with more variety or deciding we no longer want to purchase a TV.

A practical, and less pedagogical, example of a false dilemma is offered by United State politics. Today, most political analysts, politicians, and voters in the United States only recognize two parties and, generally, two points of view: Republican or Democrat. In this realm we are continually offered false dilemmas and false dichotomies. You are either a Republican or a Democrat, and with that classification you are given a specific political viewpoint and specific policies you are supposed to endorse. For example, in the 2008 Presidential Election you were either for Obama, and hope and change; or you were for McCain, and Bush, the war on terror, and the status quo. But really, there were many other options like Ralph Nader, Cynthia McKinney, Bob Barr, Brian Moore, and Chuck Baldwin. So, by only considering Obama and McCain in the 2008 Presidential Election, we were limiting our considerations when many other alternatives existed. In other words, we were guilty of creating a false dilemma: either Obama or McCain. An example of another false dilemma would be: either vote for Obama or McCain, or contribute to the spoiler effect.

What will you do? "Choose" from the fallacious dichotomy of the Republicans and Democrats? Or, will you embrace "real" change for America?

The Internet on Balance: Oppressor or Liberator?

By HEATHER HORN

the atlantic wire

All told, is the Internet "a tool for political liberation or for political oppression"? Last month, The Atlantic's James Fallows hosted a panel discussion on this question for the New America Foundation, and has now posted video of the event. Google CEO Eric Schmidt, Alec Ross of the State Department, and Timothy Wu from Columbia Law School debate the subject.

Schmidt believes that, on balance, "the Internet is the strongest force for individual empowerment and therefore for freedom that has yet been invented." Wu points out the chilling example of radio "completely becoming the tool of tyranny and dictatorship" in Germany and the Soviet Union. "The Internet's doing better than radio so far," he concludes, looking at the timelines of the two technologies. Have a look at the rest of the discussion:
