From The Washington Post
TOKYO -- Amid threats from North Korea, 86,000 U.S. and South Korean troops on Monday launched their latest round of joint military exercises, described by South Korean President Lee Myung-bak as a deterrent against war.
The 11-day drills, unlike naval exercises held last month in the Sea of Japan, are based largely on computer-simulated war games and are being held in the southern part of the peninsula.
In tandem with the exercises, 400,000 South Korean government employees will participate in an anti-terrorism drill that includes a simulated attack. Seoul will host the Group of 20 summit in November, and both U.S. and South Korean intelligence agencies fear a terrorist attack from Pyongyang.
On Sunday, North Korea threatened to respond to the drills with what a military spokesman called the "severest punishment" that anyone in the world has ever faced. Pyongyang routinely responds to U.S-South Korean exercises with threats, but tensions on the Korean Peninsula have been high since the March sinking of a South Korean warship. Seoul and Washington have blamed the sinking of the Cheonan on a North Korean torpedo attack....

Big Brother Food Bill?
From Infowars.
S 510, the Food Safety Modernization Act of 2010, may be the most dangerous bill in the history of the US. It is to our food what the bailout was to our economy, only we can live without money.
“If accepted [S 510] would preclude the public’s right to grow, own, trade, transport, share, feed and eat each and every food that nature makes. It will become the most offensive authority against the cultivation, trade and consumption of food and agricultural products of one’s choice. It will be unconstitutional and contrary to natural law or, if you like, the will of God.” ~Dr. Shiv Chopra, Canada Health whistleblower
It is similar to what India faced with imposition of the salt tax during British rule, only S 510 extends control over all food in the US, violating the fundamental human right to food.
Monsanto says it has no interest in the bill and would not benefit from it, but Monsanto’s Michael Taylor who gave us rBGH and unregulated genetically modified (GM) organisms, appears to have designed it and is waiting as an appointed Food Czar to the FDA (a position unapproved by Congress) to administer the agency it would create — without judicial review — if it passes. S 510 would give Monsanto unlimited power over all US seed, food supplements, food and farming...

The New War Times Summer Squares...
I was looking at a copy of the New York Times today and I saw this game. Can you make it from Memorial Day to Labor Day with your dignity and deposit intact?
It's filled with trials and tribulations concerning ipods and cell phones for the average yuppified summer. Strangely a Ron Paul sighting is considered something to send you backwards in this game for the pseudo-clever establishment types reading the NYT.

John Bolton: Russia's Loading of Nuke Fuel Into Iran Plant Means Aug. 21 Deadline for Israeli Attack
From Newsmax
News that Russia will load nuclear fuel rods into an Iranian reactor has touched off a countdown to a point of no return, a deadline by which Israel would have to launch an attack on Iran's Bushehr reactor before it becomes effectively "immune" to any assault, says former Bush administration U.N. Ambassador John R. Bolton...

An Inside Look Into U.S. Military "Justice"; US Judge OKs confession extracted by threatening {15 y. old} suspect with fatal gang rape
From Raw Story
In one of the first military commissions held under the Obama administration, a US military judge has ruled that confessions obtained by threatening the subject with rape are admissible in court.
The case involves Omar Ahmed Khadr, a citizen of Canada who was apprehended in Afghanistan when he was 15 years old and has remained in Guantanamo Bay for the last seven years awaiting trial for terrorism and war crimes...
...Globe and Mail reports,
In May hearings, a man identified as Interrogator 1 said in testimony that he threatened Mr. Khadr with being gang-raped to death if he did not co-operate. That interrogator was later identified as former U.S. Army Sergeant Joshua Claus. He has also been convicted of abusing a different detainee and has left the military.
Mr. Khadr’s military-appointed lawyer, Lieutenant-Colonel Jon Jackson, argued this instance, as well as other alleged instances of torture and coercion, are enough to render any future confessions – even those in so-called “clean” interrogations – inadmissible in court.
Although Khadr's confessions were obtained in this manner, the military judge presiding over the case ruled they are still admissible as evidence...

Buy Farmland And Gold
From Marc Faber Blog and Prison Planet.
The stakes have not been this high for some 70 years, and as Marc Faber advised recently, the best things to do to prepare for whatever is coming are to buy gold, move away from urban areas and purchase farmland, and be prepared to defend that land with force should civil unrest and food riots occur, as many are now forecasting.

Fed Leads America “To The Brink Of Collapse”
From Prison Planet
When even the New York Times and CNN are admitting that the United States faces not only a double-dip recession but potentially a new great depression, any alarm bells that have not been rung should now be sounding loudly.
Following in the footsteps of the New York Times’ David Krugman, who in June wrote that the United States had entered a third depression similar to the Long Depression of the 19th century, CNN Money carried an article yesterday brazenly entitled, Is this finally the economic collapse?.
The piece, written by Keith R. McCullough, points out that the Fed’s announcement that it will start buying Treasury debt, is a “crossing the Rubicon” moment and “could lead the country to the brink of collapse”.
“Crossing the 90% debt/GDP threshold is the equivalent of crossing the proverbial Rubicon of economic growth. It’s a point from which it’s almost impossible to return,” states the article, adding that the market has not responded to quantitative easing so to engage in more of the same would be completely futile...

Post-Anti-Americanism
From Newsweek.
You can still buy an American newspaper at the kiosk in Rome’s Piazza Colonna, but you have to ask the lady behind the counter. She turns from the window, paws through a stack on the floor, and produces an International Herald Tribune, holding it at arm’s length like a day-old fish. It’s the same availability and tone in Venice, the Greek islands, and Istanbul. The implicit question in the transaction is always the same: why would you want to read that thing about that place at this time?
And when you read about America in European newspapers, what you are likely to find is a tone bordering on pity. The U.S. is depicted as a fraying empire of obesity, ignorance, debt, gridlock, stagnation, and mindless war. Sure, the iPad is cool, but it is evidence of what America was, not what it will be again. The stories are not angry, accusatory, or even ideological. It’s worse: they are condescendingly elegiac...

Who Needs Establishment Goons Gibbs or Obama?
The real title of the piece is White House Press Secretary: Leftwing Critics of Obama ‘Ought to Be Drug Tested’ and it's from Cryptogon.
Let me just say that I think the establishment in this country is #@!!% and Gibbs and Obama are part of that establishment. Smart people should get out of this moronic country that blames everything on liberals or the left-wing and is full of conformists just giddy to support the Pentagon while thinking war is the solution to its economic lack of vision and creativity. Not that liberals in the US are in any way a perfect bunch, please, but what goes for conservatism is often just an unthinking allegiance to the military, tax avoiding multi-national corporations and Wall Street. Try respecting intelligence, honesty and other principles for once USA and you might get somewhere...Gibbs, I can't wait until your pathetic lying face is out of the White House. Maybe a job in the CIA for you? Wall Street? How about the republicans? Btw...Wall Street is giving all its money to the republicans now. Ha Ha Ha. And you thought you were one of the big guys? They turned on you just like you turned on the democratic base. Now go to hell and I don't want to hear your whimpers as the fires burn and scorch your sold out dung heap of a soul. Figure out a yuppie PR campaign to save that image you fool.
Get ready for Palin in 2012, the misery will continue....

Do People Really Drown In Hot Tubs?
They are going with the drowning in a hot tub story on Bloomberg.
Tara Harrington, medical associate at Maine's Office of Chief Medical Examiner knows exactly what happened, absolutely, and right away.
“It was an accident,” Harrington said today in a telephone interview. She said “heart disease” was listed for the category of “other significant conditions” on the death certificate.
So "heart disease" according to Bloomberg was just an "other significant conditions." So no heart attack now?
That's hard to believe. What did he just fall asleep in his hot tub and drown while simultaneously accusing BP of murder and the government of cover-up of the destruction of the Gulf Of Mexico? I doubt it.

The Crime of the Century: What BP and the US Government Don't Want You to Know, Part I
From Huffington Post and Kushmonster
The unprecedented disaster caused by the BP oil spill at the Deepwater Horizon Mississippi Canyon 252 site continues to expand even as National Incident Commander Thad Allen and BP assert that the situation is improving, the blown-out source capped and holding steady, the situation well in hand and cleanup operations are being scaled back. The New York Times declared on the front page this past week that the oil was disolving more rapidly than anticipated. Time magazine reported that environmental anti-advocate Rush Limbaugh had a point when he said the spill was a "leak". Thad Allen pointed out in a press conference that boats are still skimming on the surface, a futile gesture when the dispersant Corexit is being used to break down oil on the surface. As the oil is broken down, it mixes with the dispersant and flows under or over any booming operations...
