With his usual insight, journalist Robert Parry of Consortium News has written what for me is an expose of the links between the Iran-Contra scandal of Ronald Reagan (1981) and the Gulf War of George H. W. Bush (1991) – Poppy’s "100 hours of carnage."Mr. Parry ignored his employer’s instructions (Newsweek) at the time and set up an interview with a key witness, Israeli operative Ari Ben-Menashe,

Shock Doctrine Politicians = America Going Nowhere
An Austere GOP Hearts the Ruining of Americaby Jude CowellIf you’re anything like me, you’re having some difficulty keeping current your Shock Doctrine Politicians scorecard, so you may benefit from a list with their names, birth data, and a few of their astrological details. And of course, the shock in ‘Shock Doctrine’ implicates the planet of disruption, upheaval, lightening, and chaos: Uranus.
Mercury’s Rx and Direct Stations Mar 30/Apr 23, 2011: degree symbols
Today at 4:48 pm edt in Washington DC, Mercury’s current retrograde station occurs @ 24Ari21. I use ‘4:48 pm’ because that’s the moment my Solar Fire software gives for Mercury’s first minute Rx (notwithstanding the March 11, 2011 earthquake in Japan which knocked Earth’s axis off a smidgen.)Then on April 23, 2011, Mercury performs his/her Direct Station @ 12Air53 (6:04 am edt in DC.) As you know
Aries New Moon Apr 3, 2011 w US natal Mars rising
The more I look at the chart factors in the horoscope of the April 3, 2011 New Moon at a critical/crisis degree, the more worrisome they appear. Sadly, the cure isn’t to stop looking.Well, as you know, the combination of Mars and Uranus is a permanent signature in the American natal chart and national psyche so we can’t say we’re not a warring bunch of varmints, can we? With Gemini the sign of
Chris Hedges: The Collapse of Globalization; the Sacredness of Gaia
With Globalization, What’s Not to Like?by Jude Cowell If you’re familiar with the writings of Chris Hedges, you know that what he says must be well considered before flippantly ignoring it – except that the time has come to an end when we can afford to be apathetic about the future – environmental, social, and financial – of this little blue planet some call, Gaia.Gaia has her own hypothesis, you
Obama speaks on Libya 3.28.11 w Mercury at loose ends
Horoscopes set for Monday night, March 28, 2011, on the occasion of President Obama addressing the nation about the US-NATO-Arab-Allies mission in Libya, don’t look so much unpromising for the globalists’ usual war propaganda purposes as they look…well, ignored by the general public. We have, after all, heard this sorry tune too many times before.Under conditions which must certainly be obvious
Max Igan on Japan, Libya, & more (video)
Today in Northeast Georgia it’s on the stormy side so a quick post of this video series by Max Igan is in order due to concern for my pc’s motherboard and my healthy respect for Uranian lightening – especially now that we’ve seen what revolting Uranus to the Mars-ruled Aries Point can trigger on the World Stage:Observations on Society by Max IganPart IPart IIPart IIIPart IV
A Morgue’s Secrets Leak & Pluto/Chiron’s Plutocracy
Glenn Greenwald says that classified secrets have been leaked describing the tiresomely devious ‘take bodies from the morgue and spread ’em around to finger the Americans’ ploy.Not certain I buy it but I’ll keep my mind slightly creaked open for now. Of course, the well-timed leak could be reverse propaganda, kind of like Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker being advised to hire a thug to accost or
Triangle Factory Fire: same Solar Eclipse Series as 9/11/01
Having to be out of town most of the day today there was no time to scribble on, scan, save, and publish a horoscope of NYC’s awful March 25, 1911 Triangle Shirtwaist Fire, aka, the Triangle Factory Fire in which a total of 146 people – women and a few men – perished, most of whom were young immigrants.If you wish to set up the chart, I suggest using 4:00 pm or thereabouts for that seems to have
Keith Olbermann: Qs for the President on Libya
Reading other people’s mail is usually wrong but not in this case:Libya, Obama, and the Five-Second Rule Special Comment By Keith Olbermann Mr. President. We are not clear why we are fighting, who exactly we are fighting with, who the ‘rebels’ are that we’re fighting for, what a No-Fly Zone accomplishes with a dictator who has ground troops, how long we are to be there, to whom we are to "
