We’ve lived so long under the spell of hierarchy—from god-kings to feudal lords to party bosses—that only recently have we awakened to see not only that “regular” citizens have the capacity for self-governance, but that without their engagement our huge global crises cannot be addressed. The changes needed for human society simply to survive, let alone thrive, are so profound that the only way we will move toward them is if we ourselves, regular citizens, feel meaningful ownership of solutions through direct engagement. Our problems are too big, interrelated, and pervasive to yield to directives from on high.
—Frances Moore Lappé, excerpt from Time for Progressives to Grow Up

Posts that I especially recommend today: Sunday, November 22, 2020

  • GLENN GREENWALD on The Media Elite! on The Jimmy Dore Show. (Note: Greenwald answers piercing questions from Dore about his quarrel with the Intercept, and the pressures put on journalists who try to do honest reports.)
  • GLENN GREENWALD Calls Out AOC's Fake Progressiveness posted on The Jimmy Dore Show. This is a best post. (Note: "AOC" stands for Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. In this fascinating teleconferencing discussion (38:42m), Dore begins asking Greenwald some probing questions about censorship in the broadcasts owned by most media corporations, and Greenwald offers some fascinating and sophisticated insights not only about censorship, but other political subjects in plain everyday language that ordinary people use and understand.)
  • False Flags and the Dawn of Bioterrorism featuring James Corbett explaining what is meant about the expression "false flag attack", the use of terrorism and recent forms of bio-terrorism as a false flag attacks. Posted on his weblog The Corbett Report. (Note: The US was criticized for using bio-terrorism, which was thoroughly covered up, in the Korean War. Read This Must Be the Place by Dave Chaddock.)
  • Anthrax To COVID: The Ongoing Anthrax Deception That Created The BioSecurity State & COVID-19 featuring Ryan Cristián of The Last American Vagabond conducting a 52:13m interview with "David Meiswinkle, President Executive Director of Lawyer’s Committee For 9/11 Inquiry, here to discuss the current status of their ongoing uphill battle to gain some semblance of government accountability and transparency in regard to 9/11 and the subsequent (and clearly interconnected) anthrax false flag." (Note: Meiswinkle mentions "Daschle"--this is Sen. Tom Daschle from South Dakota who was reticent about passing the Patriot Act.   
  • New York Times Job Listing Shows How Western Propaganda Operates by Caitlin Johnstone from her weblog. This is a best post because she highlights capitalist propaganda as a kind of religion for some people (sociopaths) who want to advance their careers and, by the way, to insure the comforts of their families. (Recall here Margaret Thatcher's statement that there is no such thing as society, there are only families.) Beliefs that support families are the cornerstone of capitalism in contrast to working class loyalties. These sociopaths don't question what they write. It is all to curry favor from their bosses in order to advance their careers and the comforts of their families. This is true of most upper-middle-class people, and some middle class people, who have adopted the sociopathic religion of capitalism.
My memory was very much the same as Curtin's emotional experiences. But there were differences. One major difference is that I was already a genuine socialist (by this I mean that people should own and control the economy to distinguish from social democrats like Bernie Sanders who only supposedly believe in a strong welfare state but with private ownership of the economy), and as such I found it completely understandable that the growing fascist Deep State could not tolerate a peace-loving president. I concluded that this incident was a sign of worse things to come, and was a least intellectually prepared for them. I, too, was enrolled in sociology course; but when this happened in addition to other experiences, I decided to abandon plans for an academic career in political sociology because I knew that academia was already filled with professors who, in order to protect their careers, had already sold out to the capitalist ruling class.
  • G20: the debt solution by Michael Roberts from CADTM (Committee for the Abolition of Illegitimate Debt). (Note: This article would be better entitled "Capitalist Nations Cannot Agree on the Global Debt Problem".)
  • iLaw's US-Funded Charter Proposal REJECTED featuring a 2:30m video presentation by Brian Berletic ("Tony Cartalucci") from his weblog Land Destroyer Report summarizing the Thai government's rejection of the rewriting of Thailand's constitution to permit US funded parties to participate in Thailand's government.

The Tragedy of 9/11: a ‘false flag’ operation?

Click here to access article from United World International, an independent website based in Turkey.
Since that day, however, inquiring minds have been haunted by questions about what really happened. Their questions are not a result of simple curiosity: the official version, according to data collected by independent researchers and the commission assigned to investigate the crime, hardly even corresponds to the laws of physics, and asks us to believe things that are patently absurd. Here are a few examples.

Are You Complicit? by The Anti-Social Socialist

Click here to access article by "The Anti-Social Socialist" posted on Dandelion Salad. (updated)

This post reveals the naive political consciousness of many activists in today's USA. The post contains two major errors: 1) it puts the burden on individuals to not comply and cooperate with the capitalist system and their fake rulers; and 2) it ignores how the American version of fascism is highly deceptive and manipulative. 

The ruling class controls nearly all our "realities" using very sophisticated techniques that were first developed by the Creel Commission in WWI as psychological warfare to stunning success. Yes, our masters in the capitalist ruling class used not only psychological warfare techniques on their enemies of that time, but worst of all, on ordinary people in the USA not only to get them to interrupt their lives and go across the ocean to kill other ordinary people who had been similarly brainwashed, but to get ordinary Americans to support the war effort.

Capitalist ruling authorities since the 1930s realized the vast potential of this new discipline and went on to earnestly study and develop this technology to not only sell products but to create "realities" about the political and economic world that has neutralized a working class consciousness. They have created a full-spectrum propaganda technology that serves the interests of profit and power of ruling capitalist classes in the US/Anglo/Zionist Empire. 

In the 1930s, Walter Lippmann, building on his extensive work in psychological warfare in WWI, and Harold Lasswell, a political scientist, led the efforts to develop techniques of "persuasion". Christopher Simpson in his excellent book Science of Coercion described their perspectives this way:
Persuasive communication aimed at largely disenfranchised masses [meaning that they have no political party serving their interests] became central to Lippmann's strategy for domestic government and international relations. He saw mass communication as a major source of the modern crisis and as a necessary instrument for any managing elite. The social sciences offered tools that could make administration of what would otherwise be highly unstable social structure relatively rational and effective, he contented. In an era when methods of social supervision in industrial societies still mainly consisted of guns and policemen's clubs, many academics and intellectuals hailed Lippmann's insights as enlightened and humane. [my insertion]
Lasswell extended the idea, giving it a Machiavellian twist. He emphasized employing persuasive media and selectively using assassinations, violence, and other coercion as means of " communicating" with and managing disenfranchised people. He advocated what he regarded as "scientific" application of persuasion and precise violence, in contrast to bludgeon tactics. 
The Reich Minister of Propaganda, Joseph Goebbels of Nazi Germany from 1933 to 1945 was also fascinated by how people could be manipulated to commit acts which they would otherwise not do through the use of propaganda that served the interests of the German ruling capitalist class in Germany. Remember this famous quote of his?
If you repeat a lie often enough, people will believe it, and you will even come to believe it yourself.
After WWII, Simpson wrote (with extensive supporting documentation) that US networks fostered by lucrative government contracts arose among propaganda warfare veterans, and soon they were put to work perfecting their techniques through a series of legislation that produced the CIA (and other secret services) and signed off by the naive President Harry Truman. Truman in his earlier political career was carefully groomed for a political offices and influenced by the Pendergast mob of Kansas City, Missouri. He was the "lipstick on the pig" of nefarious influences which proved useful for fascists to use him to pursue their post-war anti-Soviet agendas and grow their Empire.

The CIA has continued to infiltrate all corporate media and Hollywood to insure that they all tell the same lies (see this). Not only in the USA, but in major media corporations in the Empire (see this--it should be noted that Ulfkotte "conveniently" died of a "heart attack" in 2017.). Now media corporations can broadcast their "realities" everywhere at the same time, and Hollywood can repeat these lies in their films. The Deep State through its secretive spy agencies have in realty accomplished what Goebbels said what was needed. This might be referred to as "full-spectrum psychological warfare dominance" over the working classes. 

Thus, today Americans believe all kinds of nonsense about their society and those abroad. Americans can only oppose this powerful class of capitalists by collectively organizing against them, but that takes a collective, dramatic rise of consciousness about the reality of class rule. This consciousness has been substantially erased by the intentional corruption of media and all ideological institutions.

Graeme MacQueen Reveals The Anthrax Deception

Click here to access the interview conducted by James Corbett with Graeme MaxQueen, author of The Anthrax Deception

I agree with Corbett that this is an important, well-written, and well-documented book, which I read, about the anthrax attacks of members of Congress immediately following 9/11. The reports we got in corporate media played up the hysteria and then at some point the FBI shut down their investigations, fantastic stories were contrived, and media coverage was quickly dropped. 

Let me be clear, because I've seen this manipulation of the American people since the assassinations of the Jack and Bobbie Kennedy, Malcolm X, Martin Luther King, the very aggressive attacks on the Black Panthers, the "War of Drugs", etc, etc., I knew that this was another false-flag event like 9/11 to stampede Congress into supporting very aggressive foreign policies. 

Our rich and powerful capitalist-fascist masters have succeeded time after time to fool the American people so that now they don't hesitate to spin fantastic tales through their media: "Russiagate", reports of chemical attacks that the Syrian government carried out on their own people, the Empire's efforts to create domestic and foreign "terrorist" attacks to create chaos and fear (the "strategy of tension") domestically, to create their own terrorist army called ISIS to destabilize the Syrian government, and to enhance support for very aggressive attacks on foreign nations starting with Iraq and Afghanistan. Briefly putting aside the outrageous crimes committed by a very well hidden Deep State of major capitalists, I am curious how long my fellow Americans will accept such outrageous operations and tales.

Returning Syrian Refugees Were Fleeing US Proxy War, Not “Assad”

Click here to access article by Tony Cartalucci from New Eastern Outlook
Why would people – enjoying refugee status in neighboring countries and even in Europe, risk returning to Syria where “brutal dictator” Bashar Al Assad not only still remains in power – but has decisively defeated his opponents through the use of “barrel bombs,” “chemical weapons,” and other forms of indescribable brutality?

The answer is simple – refugees were fleeing the US-backed war and the terrorists it had armed to divide and destroy the country – not the Syrian government. The vast majority of Syria’s displaced remained inside Syria – and simply moved into areas under government protection. Now with many other areas of the country having security restored by government forces with Russian and Iranian backing – hundreds of thousands more are returning from abroad, including from Europe – according to the BBC itself.

Great effort had been put into misrepresenting the refugee crisis the Syrian conflict triggered – specifically because the specifics of the crisis clearly revealed who Syrians were really fleeing and why. Analysis of Syria’s internally displaced refugees was intentionally and systematically omitted by the BBC and other Western media organizations in their reports over the years to obfuscate the fact refugees were fleeing militants, and voluntarily returning once militants were pushed out of various regions across Syria.
Cartalucci concludes that the BBC does not report news, but functions purely as a propaganda machine. He should also have concluded that all Empire-controlled media corporations serve the US/Anglo/Zionist Empire, and as such are all propaganda machines.

This transnational Empire controls not only their media corporations, but all institutions (for the latest example, see this) in the nations under their control; and they, like never before, insure that all institutions serve their capitalist Empire. When this control breaks down, our capitalist masters have no hesitation and no qualms about calling out their military forces to impose violence on their populations. France is the current illustration. The Empire's capitalism has inevitably evolved into fascism with their thorough use of deception and violence, the last stage of capitalism.

All ruling classes, and especially the capitalist ruling class which has refined deception into nearly a science. They rely on deception to maintain their illegitimate exploitation of working people. Nowadays I witness deception everywhere in corporate media coverage as well as in statements made by official representatives of the ruling class. Being retired, I am fortunate to have the time to read in order to check out sources, but the average working stiff has little time left over after struggling to survive, and thus is rather easily deceived. When they can no longer deceive working people is when they resort to the mailed fist of fascism. So where lies hope?

It appears to me that the capitalist system now faces some unsolvable crises, crises beyond the usual ones of boom and bust, wars, widening gaps between rich and poor, uncontrollable and ever expanding debt that characterize capitalism. Now the capitalists’ obsession with never ending pursuits of profits and power have come up against finite environmental limits for many decades. Their obsession is constantly degrading the environment and threatening catastrophic destabilization of our climate


Perhaps as working people experience the shocks of widespread unemployment, loss of home ownership, less educational opportunities for their children, more debts for those in advanced education, desertification, violent changes in climate, etc., corporate media along with corrupt official representatives and spokespersons will become thoroughly discredited. Then maybe it will be possible to organize working people to take back their government, to create their own media, to create a just and peaceful, sustainable society. My constant anxiety is that by that time, it will be too late.

Some interesting new information about 9/11

Click here to access article posted by the editor of True Publica on their British-based website. 

Don't let the bland title of this article deter you from reading it--it's powerful! More and more people are questioning the official government story about history's top false-flag event: 9/11. Likewise the directorate of the ruling capitalist class (otherwise known as the Deep State), which controls our government and much of the Anglo-American Empire, are fighting back with the old canard about such questioning of official reports: questioning equals "conspiracy theory". This article from a major alternative British website furnishes details about the breakdown of belief in the government's 9/11 mythology while citing other major examples of government lies.

9/11: Finally the Truth Comes Out?

Click here to access article by Paul Craig Roberts posted on Foreign Policy Journal (not to be confused with Foreign Policy, one of the propaganda websites of the Deep State that governs America).
Although the United States is allegedly a democracy with a rule of law, it has taken 17 years for public pressure to bring about the first grand jury investigation of 9/11. Based on the work of Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth led by Richard Gage, first responder and pilots organizations, books by David Ray Griffen and others, and eyewitness testimony, the Lawyers’ Committee for 9/11 Inquiry has presented enough hard facts to the US Attorney for the Southern District of New York to force his compliance with the provisions of federal law that require the convening of a federal grand jury to investigate for the first time the attacks of September 11, 2001.

This puts the US Justice (sic) Department in an extraordinary position. Every informed person is aware that elements of the US government were involved either in the perpetration of the 9/11 attacks or in a coverup of the attacks.

Endless War Has Been Normalized And Everyone Is Crazy

Click here to access article by Caitlin Johnstone from her blog. 

After arguing that we are now in a state of endless war, she asks why and how this came about. But she only attributes this to our trusting childhood development being dependent on adult guidance. 

I have a much better explanation for the normalization of endless war. The ambitious false-flag project on 9/11 (see this and/or this for transcript) was vitally important for our Deep State masters in order to turn around our largely anti-imperialist attitudes prior to this event. They succeeded marvelously to turn adults living in the Empire into raving enthusiasts for striking anybody anywhere that could be identified by our masters as "terrorists" or supporting terrorism. Having controlled what adults thought about this event, they knew that the adults would tell their children the same fabricated, false-flag type of story.

MASSIVE Breakthrough In 9/11 Investigation! - Must WATCH (with Richard Gage & Barbara Honegger)

Click here if you wish to access the video directly from YouTube. The 33 minute video (the last three minutes was a pitch to donate to WAM) was produced by WAM (Winnipeg Alternative Media) and featured prominently on AE911Truth (Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth) website. The founder of WAM is Josh Sigurdson who functions largely as a moderator for this excited discussion by Richard Gage and Barbara Honegger.
Josh Sigurdson talks with Richard Gage AIA of Architects & Engineers For 9/11 Truth as well as Barbara Honegger who famously exposed the truth behind the Iran Contra scandal in the 1980s as a member of the Reagan White House with her book 'October Surprise' and now works with the Lawyers Committee For 9/11 Inquiry.
Some massive news has come out in recent days regarding a petition originally filed in April of 2018 asking for a new investigation into 9/11. Just a few days ago, LCfor9/11 got a letter back from a US attorney agreeing to comply with a Federal law requiring submission to a special grand jury of report by Lawyers' committee and 9/11 victim family members of "yet to be prosecuted 9/11 crimes."
The implications of the case they are pursing are staggering. They do have a mountain of evidence that the government's interpretation of this event was false, and events since then overwhelmingly suggest a coverup. It's obvious that the government led by the Deep State and its "security" and "intelligence services" were involved to bring it off. Cui bono? This is also obvious which leads Sigurdson to ask a most obvious question at 7:38m--essentially that the government cannot investigate itself with any credibility. 

The people at AE911Truth and the Lawyers Committee For 9/11 Inquiry are, as the names suggest, consist of professionals in the engineering, architecture, and legal professions. As professionals they have gone through long years of education and have enjoyed the perks that all professionals enjoy in a capitalist economy. Thus, they have been thoroughly indoctrinated in the ideology of capitalism, specifically with regards to the much vaunted "rule of law". Now they will find out how shallow this part of capitalist ideology is. 

Yet, I don't expect that their futile efforts will change many of their minds because they, who have served an indispensable function for capitalists, have enjoyed so many advantages. They will not "bite the hands that feeds them" in spite of the fact of their mountain of evidence (which they cite at length in the video), the fact that some of them lost loved-ones in this false-flag operation, and millions of people have been terribly impacted throughout the Middle East. Barbara Honegger clearly has not lost her faith in the system because of the Kennedy and other assassinations (the Zapruder film she mentions in the video was given immediately to the authorities), and her own experience with exposing the October surprise which the Reagan operatives engineered to get him elected. Nobody was held accountable for any of these crimes!

It will be interesting to see how the Deep State handles this grand jury investigation. It doesn't take much political intelligence to predict that it will be given minimal coverage in corporate media, the process will be drawn out and will take many years, the litigants will be offered some non-consequential legal rewards, but in the end nothing will come of it. I don't expect to still be alive when the case is ultimately concluded even though I am in very good health at the age of 82.

Debunking the Real 9/11 Myths: Why Popular Mechanics Can't Face Up to Reality

Click here to access article by Adam Taylor from Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth. (I don't normally post articles that are more than a month old; but in the case of the 9/11 false-flag conspiracy and tragedy in which millions of my fellow Americans still believe the fairy tales put out by the government which is almost entirely controlled by the ruling capitalist class, I will post this as an exception to the rule.)
[AE911Truth] Editor’s note: This 10-part series by researcher Adam Taylor exposes the erroneous and deceptive arguments made by Popular Mechanics in its most recent edition of Debunking 9/11 Myths, published around the ten-year anniversary of September 11, 2001.

As Taylor writes, “Popular Mechanics has been the primary cheerleader in the mainstream media in defense of the NIST reports ever since its book, Debunking 9/11 Myths: Why Conspiracy Theories Can’t Stand Up To the Facts, was published in 2006.” Many years later, the books and articles by Popular Mechanics continue to be frequently cited by members of the media as the definitive refutation of the controlled demolition hypothesis.

Adam Taylor’s dismantling of Debunking 9/11 Myths should be required reading for anyone who tries to hold up Popular Mechanics as an authoritative source on the cause of the World Trade Center destruction.

Coming September 2019: The Anatomy of a Great Deception — Part 2!

Click here to access article and video that was sent to me by Richard Gage, AIA
Founder & CEO, Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth.


Here is your opportunity to help fund a second film by Dave Hooper about the greatest false-flag event in history and help to expose it as that. There are no limits--and I mean no limits--that our masters will go to to defend the benefits of their ruling class positions and their attacks against anyone or nation that stands in their way of access to their drugs of power and profits. I'm referring to the ruling, transnational, capitalist classes of the US-led Empire. 

Some of their worst deceptions in addition to their crime of 9/11 include the creation of a democratic facades of their governments whose war policies are always presented as motivated by humanitarian concerns, their successful attempts to evade taxes (and raise ours) with the establishment of offshore tax havens, and finally their use (or misuse) of our money that is issued by their privately owned central banks. The list of their deceptions and crimes against the overwhelming majority of humanity are endless--9/11 is only one of them. But if the American people can be convinced of this greatest false-flag event, there is no telling where they will go to question all the lies, deceptions, and crimes of our masters.
