Start limiting government secrecy

Orange County Register
by Elizabeth Goitein

12/31/12

A little-known presidential advisory committee recently issued recommendations for transforming the way government officials classify national security information. The goal is to rein in the growing problem of over-classification, the classification of information that poses no threat to national security. ... President Barack Obama can, and should, go further. Last year alone, there were 92 million decisions to classify information, and top military and intelligence officials agree that between 50 percent and 90 percent of such material could safely be released. Such massive over-classification threatens national security rather than enhancing it...

Argentien wurde die ''Gentechnik'' verboten

Der Tod im Regal!

Argentinien gehört Mittlerweilen zu jenen Ländern wo die ''Gentechnik'' bereits seit über einem Jahrzehnt angewandt wird.

Inzwischen ist es erwiesen, dass die ''Gentechnik'' dort für die zunehmend verheerenden Missbildungen bei Säuglingen verantwortlich ist.

Der Krebs hat sich inzwischen in Argentinien vervierzigfacht.

Bei 80 Prozent der Kinder dort wurden Rückstände des Pestizides RoundUp festgestellt.

Auch die Allergien nehmen in diesem Land drastisch zu.

Deshalb hat die Argentinische Regierung jetzt per Gerichtsbescheid der amerikanischen Firma Monsanto, die Lizenz für dieses teuflische Werk entzogen.

Das war ein längst überfälliger und richtiger Schritt in die gute Richtung.

Die ''Gentechnik'' ist weit gefährlicher als Atom, weil die Verseuchung irreversibel ist und jeden Tag mehr wird, wobei bei die Atomverstrahlung täglich abnimmt.

Auch Frankreich und Ungarn haben die ''Gentechnik'' jetzt lobenswerterweise aus ihren Ländern verbannt!

Obwohl Österreich bisher den ''Gentechnikanbau'' untersagt hat, führen wir jährlich ca. 800 000 Tonen ''Gentechniksoja'' für Futterzwecke aus Argentinien ein.

Dieses verseuchte Futter wird an unsere Nutztiere verfüttert, wonach die Produkte undeklariert auf unsere Esstische gelangen.

Leider auch mit dem hochgelobten AMA?Gütesiegel!

Studien aus aller Welt haben in Tierversuchen eindeutig bewiesen, dass Produkte mit der ''Gentechnik'' unserem Organismus gesundheitlichen Schaden zufügen.

Obwohl sich auch bei uns die Volkskrankheiten durch solche Ernährung erwiesenenerweise rasant vermehren und demnächst nicht mehr zu bezahlen sein werden, denken unsere Politiker leider nicht nachhaltig und präventiv.

Wir haben nur eine Gesundheit, deshalb sollten wir darauf besonders achten!

Komischerweise geben wir in unser Auto das beste Öl hinein und überlegen manchmal beim Kauf gesunder Lebensmittel!

The big lie loses

The Nation Blog
by William Greider

01/01/13

Despite the media s 'fiscal cliff' hysteria and relentless propaganda from the monied interests, their 'big lie' politics has lost. The people won. At least the people did not lose. This result is a promising sign for the political conflicts that lie ahead, another indication that 'big money' does not always have its way. Liberal-labor progressives must make the most of this opportunity, mobilize folks for the next round of battles and force their progressive values upon the often ambivalent President Obama and other hesitant Democrats. The phony drama over 'fiscal crisis' was always designed to punish the wrong people for the nation s economic ills. The establishment s goal was to demonize the federal programs most valued by ordinary citizens, Social Security and Medicare, blaming them for Washington s soaring deficits and debt instead of the collapsed economy that Wall Street produced...

The US war machine

Future of Freedom Foundation
by Anthony Gregory

01/01/13

Many supporters of Barack Obama are disappointed that he has not reversed the war policies of his predecessor. He did his best to continue the U.S. occupation of Iraq. The Afghanistan war rages far beyond what was seen under George W. Bush. Obama has also proved militaristic in operations in Libya, Yemen, and Pakistan, and in the sanctions against Iran.
