~Massive and dangerous Hurricane Sandy has grown to record size as it

Fall 1941: Pearl Harbor and The Wars of Corporate America
Global Research
Dr. Jacques R. Pauwels
Myth: The US was forced to declare war on Japan after a totally unexpected
Japanese attack on the American naval base in Hawaii on December 7, 1941.
On account of Japan’s alliance with Nazi Germany, this aggression
automatically brought the US into the war against Germany.
Reality: The Roosevelt administration had been eager for some time to wage
war against Japan and sought to unleash such a war by means of the
institution of an oil embargo and other provocations. Having deciphered
Japanese codes, Washington knew a Japanese fleet was on its ... more »

Did Israel just blow up an Iranian weapons factory in Sudan?
The Sudanese government is blaming Israel for an explosion at a munitions
plant in Khartoum early yesterday morning that Israeli media say was owned
by Iran’s Revolutionary Guard and made arms for Hamas.
The Sudan Tribune reports that Ahmad Bilal Osman, Sudan’s media minister,
said in a press conference yesterday that the government had proof that
Israel was behind the explosion

On Climate Science and the Nobel Prize: Indict the Entire Process

It was the first foreign Soviet nuclear base, built in Germany three years

Soviet nuclear missiles 20 times more powerful than Hiroshima were set up

eastern England.
But since it was built in 1959 in the picturesque woods of Brandenburg,

“About two-thirds of the total benefit go to that group in the 80th through
the 99th income percentiles,” Mr. Rosenberg said.
For those households, by the center’s calculations, the tax benefit of the

What is increasingly obvious is the number of Jihad (holy war) flags and

Preons are hypothetical particles smaller than leptons and quarks that
leptons and quarks are made out of. But can there be such particles?
