Spy Planes

As more of our civil liberties are eroded in the name of “fighting crime” or “protecting the people from terrorism”, yet another Orwelian idea is just about to be implemented here in the UK.

The eery “spy planes” will be in effect above the skies of Liverpool in around one week’s time and the unmanned drones, originally used for military reconnaissance but now being used against British citizens, aim to tackle anti-social behaviour and other types of crime.

There is just one problem with this. CCTV has already proved completely ineffective in reducing the level of crime we have in the UK. They simply don’t do what the police claim they do. And while the use of CCTV is obviously a benefit in the tracking of criminals after an offence has been committed, research shows that criminals are undeterred by the presence of cameras.

Now, however, the spy planes are here. Along with the shouting CCTV cameras they are here to wipe away the ever so slight mark of privacy that we had left in our lives. The privacy of being able to walk down the street at any time of the day or night and not “feel” like you’re being watched, even when we know we already are being watched almost everywhere we stray.

When this story first surfaced last year, Merseyside Police played down the reports stating in this BBC article that police were “exploring a number of technology-driven ideas” but while the use of surveillance drones is among them they would be “a long way off”.

Well, forgive me for not really thinking that October 2006 was a long time ago. Because it wasn’t. Their attitude in October had a slight air of “conspiracy theorist” branding…something which has worked well for the government’s Orwelian plans in the past leaving them clear to usher in these kinds of quite unbelievable measures that the majority of the people would have been shocked at some years ago but now accept as “necessary to fight crime”.

Unfortunately for those people these spy planes will not reduce crime and they will not reduce the number of anti-social incidents in areas like Liverpool or Manchester or anywhere for that matter. They will, however, serve the increasingly paranoid New World Order’s attempts to keep tabs on our entire society.

Don’t buy into it.

Hi I’m Gordon Brown, I’m Here On Behalf of the New World Order To Destroy Society

That may as well have been what our next Prime Minister said during his May 15th speech. He has been doing it alot recently in the run-up to him taking over in June. Back in March while I was casually reading through the Metro newspaper in university I saw this little article headline and had to take a picture…

Gordown Brown Calls for New World Order on Climate Change

More of the same with this video, putting the term out there, getting you used to it. Yay let’s all embrace the New World Order…green taxes, a microchipped, cashless society…hooray for Gordown Brown! What original ideas he has…I’ve never heard of this before!

…open your eyes to the tyranny that is coming and that which is already here. Globalism cannot be allowed to destroy the very fabric of society that we have all become accustomed to. But if it continues unchallenged this is exactly what will happen.

Stop the New World Order!

State of the 9/11 Truth Movement

The truth will set you free

9/11 Truth Movement

Why do we do this? Why do we spend our time running websites, running blogs, writing in-depth articles, making copies of films to show friends and family, going out of our way in conversations to clarify what our world is really like to those who don’t yet see it for what it is? Because we have the facts, we have the evidence and we have the will, passion and desire to let the world know what we know. We are the 9/11 Truth Movement.

Since 2001 the so-called 9/11 “debunkers” have persistently tried to wash away anything that is opposed regarding the official story and anything that disagrees with the 9/11 Commission whitewash. Day after day the deniers keep at it, telling people the world over to shut their mouths and move along. They assume that every single one of us is just some wacked out idiot who likes to spew crap for the fun of it.

It is that fundamental assumption that fails many of those who simply deny everything the 9/11 Truth Movement bring to the table. Some people genuinely believe that anyone who doesn’t wholeheartedly believe the U.S. Government’s version of events on September 11, 2001 is simply insane or just another conspiracy theorist who just desperately wants their version of events to be right to keep that extra sense of excitement in their lives.

The only thing wrong with these arguments is that since the very beginning people didn’t just suddenly start saying “Hey, y’know what? 9/11 was an inside job.” Instead, they had the evidence to back up their claims, which goes against the very definition of the term “conspiracy theorist”.

Want to know why there has never been this major amount of people going round saying they were abducted by aliens last night? Want to know why MILLIONS of people don’t run blogs, websites or organize huge numbers of SERIOUS events and gatherings dedicated to insisting Elvis is still alive?

Because the majority of people aren’t dumb and it takes evidence to convince and assure them. With the events of 9/11, the evidence of an inside job are absolutely conclusive. That is why people are waking up at an enormous rate and why celebrities like Rosie O’Donelll and Charlie Sheen have had the courage to speak out about it at risk of jeapordizing the remainder of their careers.

Have any Hollywood actors come out in recent times making serious comments about the possibility that Elvis Presley may still be out there wandering around in a pair of blue suede shoes? I think not. Yet our movement is constantly tarnished mainly by the mainstream media as being part of that kind of crowd. So many radio hosts now like to play The Twilight Zone theme music whenever anybody questions a western government’s official line of events. This kind of childish avoiding of truth, facts and hard evidence has to end.

High profile deniers are the worst of them all. Bill O’Reilly, Sean Hannity and the like. You can feel sorry for people who are just dumb. You can feel sorry for people who simply don’t realise what is going on in the world because all they watch is mainstream television. You can feel sorry for these people because they haven’t been shown the evidence yet. The likeliness is that if they were to be presented with it their opinions and outlook onlife would change immediately, as happened with myself almost 2 years ago. But the people you cannot feel sorry for are the people who have the facts shoved down their throats every single day, only to brush them off as “outlandish conspiracy theories”.

The New World Order went too far and they have felt the effects in a massive way. The 9/11 Truth Movement is absolutely unprecedented in it’s scope and magnitude. Nobody could have imagined the sheer extent that our movement would grow…and over the coming years I see it happening at a much more accelerated pace.

The mainstream media is living in an alternative world. The mainstream media is slowly dying.

Sean Hannity, if you GENUINELY believe that Osama Bin Laden orchestrated the attacks of 9/11 then you are in deep trouble my friend. The evidence is right in front of you but you refuse to believe it because it scares the hell out of you and rightly so. But here in the 9/11 Truth Movement we refuse to let any kind of fear get in the way of the message we have been sending out loud and clear for the past 5 and a half years…

9/11 WAS AN INSIDE JOB!

Trust your instincts, do your own research, draw your own conclusions, because the only conclusion you can come to when you look at what is being offered to you with an open mind is that the attacks of that day didn’t happen the way you thought they did.

Guantanamo lawyer faces jail term

BBC | Saturday, May 19, 2007

A US Navy lawyer faces six months in prison and dismissal from service for sending a human rights lawyer the names of 550 Guantanamo Bay detainees.

Lt Cdr Matthew Diaz, 41, posted a list of the names in an unmarked Valentine’s Day card during the final days of his service at Guantanamo Bay in 2005.

He apologised during his sentencing for having acted “irrationally”.

The US military had originally refused to release the names of the men it was holding at Guantanamo Bay.

The names were made public in 2006 after the Associated Press news agency won a court case against the military.

Apology

At a court martial, Lt Cdr Diaz was convicted of communicating secrets that could be used to harm the US and of three other charges of passing on information to an unauthorised person.

The jury recommended that Lt Cdr Diaz receive full pay and benefits during his time in jail.

The sentence and the dismissal order are reportedly subject to further approval and to review by an appeals court.

Lt Cdr Diaz apologised for his actions during his sentencing.

“I should have done better. It was extremely irrational for me to do what I did,” he said.

‘Morality’

However, in an earlier interview with US paper, The Dallas Morning News daily, he appeared to defend his actions.

“I had observed the stonewalling, the obstacles we continued to place in the way of the attorneys,” the paper quoted Lt Cdr Diaz as saying.

“I knew my time was limited… I had to do something.”

The officer said he had been moved to act because prisoners’ rights under the Geneva Convention had been violated.

“No matter how the conflict was identified, we were to treat them in accordance with Geneva, and it just wasn’t being done.”

The US government says the men held at its military prison in Guantanamo Bay pose a grave threat to the country and have not been tortured.

The Dallas Morning News quotes Lt Cdr Diaz questioning both these assertions.

The sentencing of Lt Cdr Diaz has been criticised by the Centre for Constitutional Rights, the New York-based human rights body whose lawyer received the Valentine’s Day card and the list of suspects.

“We believe that Lt Cmdr Diaz’s actions were grounded in a strong sense of morality and commitment to the rule of law,” a statement on the centre’s website said.

Media Pushes for Children to be Microchipped

Maddy nightmare gives establishment platform to promote the tracking of every child

Madeleine McCann
Click here to show your support in the fight to find missing Madeleine McCann!

Europe’s largest newspaper the London Times has come out with an article that I and many others who have their eyes open to the New World Order agenda have been expecting over the past 2 weeks since the tragic abduction of four-year-old Leicestershire toddler Madeleine McCann.

That article is the imminent push for our children to have implantable microchips embedded under their skin.

Click here to read the Times’ article in full.

The majority of the British public and indeed that of the wider international community, particularly those with children will willingly take in what the press subconsciously tells us when these kinds of seemingly caring journalists step up and ask questions such as “Would an implanted chip help to keep my child safe?”.

People with children are going to answer yes to this question. The majority of those without children are still going to answer yes to this question. The reason for this is that they fail to see the underlying motives behind the seemingly rational suggestion that we should all know where our children are and therefore ensure they are safe.

Of course we want our children to be safe. Of course we want them to be kept well away from the grips of an abductor such as the person or persons who have taken young Madeleine in Praia da Luz and of course we want these kinds of people brought to swift justice, but microchipping the entire child population is certainly not the answer and it simply never will be.

As Aaron Russo revealed on the Alex Jones show in January of this year, the true intentions of the global elite, in particular the Rockefeller family, is a microchipped society. A society where you have no privacy, nowhere to run, nowhere to hide, whether you’re innocent, guilty, indifferent or impaired. This is the true face of the London Times article quoted above and this is what we have to fight.

Let me make myself clear. On the surface this idea, be it for children only, is a good one. The reasoning sounds good, the media feeds it to you and your emotions lead you to believe that this is the way forward. But the notion that these chips are “just for children, to keep them safe” is a theory which will eventually evaporate if this plan comes to true fruition.

Hear this. Your child has been implanted with a microchip. You, the police and the government can track your child wherever he or she goes. Good idea? “Of course,” you think to yourself, “my child will never be lost again…and if the worst comes and my child is taken, the police can identify exactly where they are and locate them immediately.

But what about when your child grows up. Your child is now a teenager…they’re still chipped…they’re still trackable by the police and the government and they still lack the privacy and freedom that was so readily taken away from them in the name of safety when they were in their early years of life.

But that’s even if this system would work. The UK Government’s own research shows that CCTV is not a crime deterrent, yet here in the UK we have 1 camera for every 14 people and there are tonnes more going up all around us. We are the most surveilled nation on the planet, yet we have one of the biggest crime rates…and that is simply because the CCTV that plagues your everyday life…the CCTV that watches you almost every step you walk on every day of your life is not there to prevent crime or preserve public safety as the nice yellow stickers will have you believe. They are there to serve the purpose they were built for. To watch…watch YOU!

Make no mistake, the New World Order’s plan to microchip the entire human population will begin in this manner. With children. If it were ruled tomorrow that every child on the planet should be microchipped from this point on then where will Earth be in say 50 years down the line? An almost entirely microchipped population. Everyone trackable. This is what we have to fight, because it is wrong in every single way. There are better ways to help keep our children safe from the evils that lurk in our world.

I sincerely hope that the McCann family have their daughter returned to them safe and well as does the rest of our nation and the rest of the world who have seen this case unfold over the past fortnight.

Movie makes director star of CCTV

BBC | Tuesday, May 15, 2007

Faceless

An Austrian filmmaker has come up with a novel way of avoiding the costs of creating a movie - by making her film entirely from images of real life captured by CCTV cameras.

Called Faceless, the film is the project of London-based Manu Luksch, who is both the star and director and describes it as a “science fiction fairy tale”.

By taking CCTV of herself and blocking out the faces of anyone else captured on it, she created a story set in the future, in the “faceless world” - with herself as the only woman with a face.

“We’re being filmed all the time, in all sorts of situations, by CCTV cameras,” Ms Luksch told BBC World Service’s Digital Planet programme.

“As a filmmaker, I was really questioning myself - where I should bring in my own camera.

“I found out that under the Data Protection Act (DPA), one has the right to retrieve data which is held upon oneself. This does not only apply to medical and financial data, but also to CCTV images.”

Observing

After she had the idea for the film, Ms Luksch set about attempting to get as much footage of herself as she could. The first recordings she was sent were images of herself in a theatre foyer.

The film was made according to the “manifesto for CCTV Filmmakers” - there was to be no specialist equipment or cameras involved; the only cameras used had to be CCTV cameras already in place; and the footage had to be obtained by using the Data Protection Act to procure it.

“It was interesting to observe a part of our legislation - in this case the Data Protection Act - over a period of five years,” she said.

“My requests were more often than not replied to in an inadequate or uninformed way - the controllers had clearly not heard of the Data Protection Act.”

She explained that the usual responses to her requests would either be no reply - despite the law stating requests for images must be responded to in 40 days - or she would be told no images could be provided.

Others attempted to charge thousands of pounds for “post-production”, even though the DPA says that only a standard fee of £10 can be charged.

“There are lots of aspects of this legislation which are clearly neglected on a daily basis,” she added.

“As an artist I try to work with these images in a way that it opens up questions to everyone who is concerned.

“We are always being recorded, and the Data Protection Act affects all of us.”

One War Criminal Down, A Fistful to Go

Tony Blair

British Prime Minister Tony Blair, or more accurately, George W. Bush’s lap dog, has resigned to England’s relief.

Boris Johnson at the Daily Telegraph wrote that “Blair cannot escape the blame for a disaster in which at least 60,000 (and possibly 10 times as many) Iraqis have died, and which is causing 40,000 Iraqis to flee the country every month.”

The Daily Mail ’s Piers Morgan wrote that Blair’s complicity in the invasion of Iraq transformed England “into a more dangerous, paranoid, despised and ridiculed country. Blair’s reign will be remembered for one disaster of epic proportions, one appalling legacy.”

Claire Short, a former Blair minister, said, “I think Tony’s place in history is Iraq and the deceit and the desperate mess and it’s sad. It’s going to be a very bad place in history.”

Many wonder why Blair destroyed his reputation and that of his country, put himself at risk of being hauled before the International Criminal Court, and squandered his time as prime minister providing cover for George Bush’s war of aggression. The answer must be money. We will see which US corporate boards take Blair as a director and which groups pay him six-figure honorariums for speeches.

Bush will have an even worse place in history. There is no longer any doubt that Bush deceived Congress and the American people. At great financial and human cost, Bush took America to war and destroyed Iraq for a hidden agenda. After years of swallowing Bush’s lies, the American people finally caught on. Bush’s approval rating is at 28 percent, but the TV and print media are still sycophantic.

Bush’s approval rating has collapsed despite a favorable press. The people are no longer fooled, but Bush’s favorable press intimidates the Democrats, who have failed to bring accountability to the Bush Regime.

People damn Bill Clinton for many reasons. Perhaps his greatest failure was in permitting the media concentration that destroyed the independence of the “mainstream media”. The American media is no longer in the hands of journalists. It is controlled by advertising executives and corporate bosses who will never put their empires at risk by offending government and advertisers. They believe readers and viewers want to be entertained, not challenged by truthful news.

Journalism schools now teach students how to spin the news away from uncomfortable truths. Reporters and editorial writers are being turned into shills for those in power.

Democracy is handicapped without the press. When news is spun, falsely reported, and not reported, the people are deprived both of information and of voice. The American people disapprove of Bush, but the American corporate press supports him.

Because of Blair’s support for the European Union, Blair could find himself hauled before the International Criminal Court. The US government has been careful to keep itself outside international law. Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Rice, and a number of others are regarded as outlaws, but there is no marshal with the authority to arrest them and hold them accountable. Only Congress can do that.

Leaving Bush in office is extremely dangerous. He has proven himself to be a deceitful and hare-brained leader. Bush has one and one-half years remaining in which to attack Iran, start a nuclear war, stage a 9/11 type event and declare a national emergency.

It is extreme folly to keep fanatics in office who have no respect for the US Constitution, civil liberties, and the separation of powers. The Bush Regime values nothing but power. Every day that Bush remains in office diminishes America and erodes its founding principles.

Man faces 20 years in prison for kissing his girlfriend on plane

Californian accused of “nuzzling” girlfriend and then arguing with a flight attendant about it is convicted.

DailyBreeze.com
By Doug Irving
Saturday, May 5, 2007

What began with a kiss and ended with sharp words on a flight out of Los Angeles International Airport could land a California man in prison for a very long time.

Carl Warren Persing of Lakewood was convicted this week of interfering with a flight attendant, a charge carrying a prison sentence of up to 20 years. The case stems from two midflight encounters: the first between Persing and his girlfriend in the seats of a Southwest Airlines jet, the next between him and the flight attendant who told them to behave.

Persing’s attorneys have argued that what the flight attendant thought was “overt sexual activity” was really just a tired man laying his head in his girlfriend’s lap. They agree that Persing and the flight attendant exchanged words but question whether it was enough to interfere with the flight.

A federal judge is scheduled to sentence Persing in August. His attorney, Bill Peregoy, said he’s sure there will be an appeal.

“It was clearly bad behavior,” Peregoy said. But, he added, “where does normal guy talk stop and felonious communications begin?”

Persing and his live-in girlfriend, Dawn Sewell, were flying from Los Angeles to Raleigh, N.C., last September. They first attracted the attention of other passengers during a brief stop in Phoenix, according to court documents.

Persing began “nuzzling or kissing” Sewell’s neck and chest, then pressed his face into her lap, according to an FBI affidavit. Their behavior, it notes, made other passengers uncomfortable.

The flight attendant twice asked the couple to stop. The second time, Persing told him, “I’m going to give you one warning to get out of my face,” the affidavit states.

The flight attendant later refused to serve the couple alcohol. The affidavit quotes Persing telling him, “There is going to be a serious confrontation between you and me.”

FBI agents met the flight when it landed in North Carolina. A federal grand jury indicted both Persing and Sewell, concluding they had interfered with the flight attendant and “lessen(ed) the ability of the attendant to perform his duties.”

The trial got under way this week in a federal courtroom in North Carolina. Peregoy said the judge quickly dismissed the charges against Sewell, but she was “scared to death” that she could still be prosecuted and refused to testify on her boyfriend’s behalf.

Persing’s attorneys argued that he wasn’t feeling well during the flight and lay his head in his girlfriend’s lap to sleep. The flight attendant, they said, kept waking him up, and he lost his patience.

Jurors took six hours to convict Persing of interfering with the flight attendant. His attorney, Peregoy, said the jury never considered a crucial question in its deliberations: whether Persing knew that his behavior would interfere with the flight attendant’s ability to carry out his duties.

“Mr. Persing,” he said, “was on trial for no other reason than (this): You will do what you’re told by aircraft crew, and you will do it with a smile on your face, or (they) will prosecute.”

Persing is scheduled to return to the Raleigh courtroom in early August for his sentencing hearing. Robin Zier, a spokeswoman for the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Raleigh, said she could not comment on how long a sentence prosecutors will seek.

Peregoy said he will ask for probation, but expects the judge may hand down “something pretty severe,” such as a few years in prison.
