The Flight of the Money - Where Has It Gone?

Two months ago, the “new” General Motors made possible by government bailouts, theft of shareholders’ equity for forced re-distribution to unions, and managerial change at government’s gunpoint, was held up as shining example of success – it was even repaying its debt to Uncle Sam early.

Feds Detect an Oil Seep, Say BP’s Cap May Not Be Working

oil-slick


If three months of waiting for BP to fix its oil leak have taught us anything, it’s not to get too optimistic about potential fixes. On Thursday, BP installed a cap that appeared to cut off the flow of oil into the Gulf of Mexico, but yesterday the federal government officials overseeing the leak response said (pdf) that there appear to be hydrocarbons leaking from the seafloor near the well, and possibly methane detected above the well.

Even With a Cleanup, Spilled Oil Stays With Us

BP, in a series of newspaper advertisements about the Deepwater Horizon disaster, says it is “working around the clock to contain and collect most of the leak” and it will “take full responsibility for cleaning up the spill.”
But if past catastrophes are guides, the cleanup by BP workers will capture only a fraction of the crude belched up by the broken well. Much of the oil will be taken care of by nature; the rest is likely to stay with us for decades.

Can Obama and Clinton Look Any More Ridiculous On Iran?

Regardless of what neocons say, the Iranian nuclear program has not violated any IAEA safeguards and so the repeated descriptions of it being an “illicit program” are nothing more than calls for war by the same lairs who painted us into the corner in Iraq, another neocon propaganda success story.
 Now the U.S. wants sanctions brought against Iran for Iran, Brazil, and Turkey enacting the exact policy the U.S. sought only a few months ago.  If this does not expose the hypocrisy and stupidity of our leaders and their disdain for our intelligence, I don’t know what will.  How can Obama and Clinton expect anyone in the international community to take them seriously?  They have been exposed and disgraced while becoming an irrelevant international laughingstock.

BREAKING NEWS UPDATE: Gaza Flotilla shipped attacked 20 Killed

People of the west do not believe the Israeli spin you will probably hear in the mainstream media. The Israeli spin will probably be something of this nature:

Israel- As the Naval commandos stormed the Mavi Marmara they were confronted with knives by the humanitarian activist and had no choice but to open fire with live ammunition.

The truth: The Mavi maramara which was a Turkish sovereign ship as well as the other 5 boats, sanctioned by 50 different countries, was thoroughly checked by officials before they set sail from Cyprus by the appropriate athorities. No weapons were found. The only things on the boats were 10,000 Tons of Humanitarian aid for the Gazan's. Some of the humanitarian aid included:
Medical supplies
Building Materials
Wheel chairs
Pencils
Toys
as well as other much needed supplies

Turkey warns Israel of 'irreparable consequences of Gaza attack.
The attack by Isreal was totally unprovoked. The Turkish shipped was equipped with media satellite so they could publically televise the response by Israel. Right before the attack Israel blocked all media signals and chose to attack in the darkness of the night.
