COALITION OF THE OBVIOUS – Denver Airport…
Since we’re getting so close to the “endgame” I thought I’d post these videos I found regarding the DIA. A twilight zone of a place that is screaming, at anyone that has the courage to acknowledge it,what the PTB have in store for us. Some believe the underground tunnels are for extermination of citizens. (note the overhead sprinklers) Others believe they are the future living quarters for the NWO after the final curtain falls in 2012. Whatever their real purpose, it’s obvious they are real and they are building these huge underground bunkers all over the country and probably the world.
So, have a look once again at the horrific murals, gargoyle and masonic symbols and try not to have nightmares about the gigantic, monstrous, blue horse with the glowing red eyes.

Big Pharma Makes Another Killing
The latest outrage against the health of humanity is the paltry fine levied against GlaxoSmithKline by our protectors, the Food and Drug Administration. The drug, Avandia, which was cited in 2007 as a potential danger, has indeed become one at the rate of around 500 heart attacks and 300 cases of heart failure per month. The fine of $2.1 billion after taxes — which may seem large to most — is less than a third of Glaxo’s annual profit.
Avandia was not banned; by a 20-12 decision it can continue to be sold to the very same segment of the population that is likely to continue harming. The fine is nothing compared to the continued profits that will result from the FDA’s current refusal to pull this killer drug off the market.
A Wall Street Journal opinion piece rejoiced and investors cheered over the decision, while the New York Times reported:
Investors cheered the news, though, as stock analysts said the action by the Federal Drug Administration was better than expected and the $2.1 billion charge set a likely ceiling on the company’s legal liabilities.
The stock rose late Wednesday after the advisory committee voted, and again Thursday after the announcement of the charge for legal issues. The stock ended the day up 2.3 percent, to $37.21 in a market that declined slightly overall and rose slightly in most other pharmaceutical stocks. Since a low point on Wednesday afternoon before the F.D.A. vote, GlaxoSmithKline stock has risen nearly 5 percent.
Investors are delighted that, assuming the F.D.A. opts only for a stronger warning, Avandia will remain on the market, Jeremy Batstone-Carr, a pharmaceutical sector analyst at Charles Stanley & Company in London, said.
The FDA has a history of choosing the profits of Big Pharma over the safety of the American people. But, hey, it’s a multi-trillion-dollar business. That’s a very long gravy train. It is a gravy train that is long enough to allow for more deaths from conventional medicine than from terrorism and illegal drugs combined. Here is a small list of of the toll:
Workers angry over decision to subtract “cleanup pay” from claims
Feinberg to fishermen: “Don’t blame the spill—life is unfair!”
By Tom Eley and Josué Olmos
19 July 2010
Gulf fishermen have reacted in anger to a decision made Friday by Obama’s appointee to oversee the “independent” claims escrow account funded by BP. Millionaire lawyer Kenneth Feinberg announced that he would subtract from any damage award they ultimately receive from BP money they have been paid for participating in the Vessels of Opportunity (VoO) cleanup program.
Through VoO, BP contracts local vessels in order to assist in highly dangerous oil containment and cleanup activities. Vessel owners reportedly earn about $5,000 per month through their participation in the program. Fishermen say that BP is rejecting their boats over arbitrary requirements and that even among those declared eligible to participate, only a fraction have been put to use.
Now, according to Feinberg’s announcement, anybody who does participate in the VoO program and receives pay will have that money deducted from their total settlement amount.
Feinberg announced the ruling at a meeting with fishermen in Biloxi, Mississippi on Friday. Fishermen protested from the floor and some stormed out of the meeting in anger, declaring that it is now “pointless to work under the Vessels of Opportunity program, set up by BP to help clean up the damage” from the disaster, Reuters reported.
“This is totally the opposite of what was said at community meetings in St. Bernard Parish months ago,” said George Barisich, president of the United Commercial Fishermen’s Association. “Yes, you are working, but working with hazardous materials cleaning up their mess. Once they leave there is no telling what’s going to happen. You are working and doing their work for them. But for the fact that they blew the well I wouldn’t have to be doing hazardous work.”
“How do you penalize someone for cleaning up your mess?” demanded boat owner Kimberly Chauvin.
The news of the new policy of subtracting cleanup pay from damage awards has heightened anger among fishermen who have encountered numerous hurdles in recovering anything approaching their lost income.
The Weaponisation of Culture – Part 1 – Food & Water
By Sally Exoudhu
This article is to show that we are in the thick of a very nasty war. We are the enemy, but we have been so brainwashed that we do not even know it. Not only that, we haven’t even noticed the war raging around us.
The entire weaponised culture that we, and our parents, were born into has been given to us. We didn’t plan it, we simply worked throughout our lives to pay for the damn thing. The elites live lives of unimaginable opulance from our slavery, and that’s truly what it is, slavery. This could not happen without our mass brainwashing.
Quote: “I think the subject which will be of most importance politically is mass psychology. This study is immensely useful to practical men, whether they wish to become rich or to acquire the government. It is, of course, as a science, founded upon individual psychology, but hitherto it has employed rule-of-thumb methods which were based upon a kind of intuitive common sense. Its importance has been enormously increased by the growth of modern methods of propaganda. Of these the most influential is what is called ‘education’.”
“The Impact of Science on Society” Lord Bertrand Russell, page 40, (1952)
Brainwashing!
Let’s look at just some of the elements of this Weaponised Culture.
Part 1. The Weaponisation of Food & Water
It’s a scam! Any idiot can grow proper food. You can grow it anywhere, in flowerpots, road-roundabouts, on mountains, wastelands, footpaths, wetlands, parklands, hanging baskets, in flats, on balconies, almost anywhere. The English had to do just this during WWII. That elitist normal (organic) food, on that elitist shelf in the supermarket; any pillock can grow that, and never need set foot in a supermarket ever again.
Here’s the answer! You start growing food, and your neighbour starts growing something different to eat and you share. The neighbour on the opposite side of you grows something that neither of you are growing and you all share. Collect the heirloom seeds for next year and repeat the process ad infinitum. The idea spreads from there. It costs nothing.

Important 9/11 Evidence You Didn’t Get

BP oil leak threatens to bust bedrockBP oil leak threatens to bust bedrock
The US government has ordered oil giant BP to offer a plan for opening the capped oil well in the Gulf of Mexico, after a seep was found threatening to leak into the bedrock.
“I direct you to provide me a written procedure for opening the choke valve as quickly as possible without damaging the well should hydrocarbon seepage near the well head be confirmed,” AFP quoted US Coast Guard Admiral Thad Allen as saying in a letter to BP chief managing director Bob Dudley on Sunday.
The order came after reports of a methane seep detected at a distance from the well and undetermined anomalies at the well head.
The authority also ordered BP to report on a “detected seep” and other “anomalies” near the oil well as experts monitor the seabed for cracks.
“Given the current observations from the test, including the detected seep a distance from the well and undetermined anomalies at the well head, monitoring of the seabed is of paramount importance during the test period,” the official added.
Experts say this could mean more leaks are being sprung.
The Coast Guard admiral has given the energy corporate 24 hours to provide a new method without damaging the well but BP says three days are needed to start the process.
The well was capped just three days ago after it spewed millions of gallons of oil into the Gulf for almost three months.
The firm was hoping the cap could stay in place until relief wells stop the leak but there are fears now that oil may begin leaking into the bedrock around the well.
Scientists are now puzzled as to why the pressure measured at the well cap is lower than expected. They fear the worst case scenario — oil leaking into the bedrock surrounding the well, making the seabed unstable.
The oil spill has been described as the worst environmental disaster in the US history. It began after BP’s Deepwater Horizon oil rig exploded on April 20th, killing 11 workers.

Official: Seep found near BP’s blown out oil well
By COLLEEN LONG and HARRY R. WEBER (AP)
NEW ORLEANS — A federal official says scientists are concerned about a seep and possible methane near BP’s busted oil well in the Gulf of Mexico
Both could be signs there are leaks in the well that’s been capped off for three days.
The official spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity Sunday because an announcement about the next steps had not been made yet.
The official is familiar with the spill oversight but would not clarify what is seeping near the well. The official says BP is not complying with the government’s demand for more monitoring.
THIS IS A BREAKING NEWS UPDATE. Check back soon for further information. AP’s earlier story is below.
NEW ORLEANS (AP) — The custom-built cap that finally cut off the oil flowing from BP’s broken well held steady Sunday, and the company hopes to leave it that way until crews can permanently kill the leak.
That differs from the plan the federal government laid out a day earlier, in which millions more gallons of oil could be released before the cap is connected to tankers at the surface and oil is sent to be collected through a mile of pipes.
Federal officials wary of making the well unstable have said that plan would relieve pressure on the cap and may be the safer option, but it would mean three days of oil flowing into the Gulf before the collection begins.
Both sides downplayed the apparent contradiction in plans. Retired Coast Guard Adm. Thad Allen, who will make the final decision, said the containment plan he described Saturday hadn’t changed, and that he and BP executives were on the same page.
“No one associated with this whole activity … wants to see any more oil flow into the Gulf of Mexico,” said Doug Suttles, BP PLC’s chief operating officer. “Right now we don’t have a target to return the well to flow.”
Allen said more work is needed to better understand why pressure readings from the well cap are lower than expected. There could be two reasons, he said: either there’s less oil in the reservoir because so much has flowed out, or oil is leaking out underground.

US military says school lunches are a threat to national security
(NaturalNews) A group of retired military officials recently expressed concern that school lunches are a threat to national security. According to them, the food being fed to children at public schools is making them “too fat to fight”, leaving a potentially considerable gap in military recruitment.
“Mission: Readiness”, the non-profit group of over 130 retired military leaders that is calling for healthier federal food for children, is expressing support for new legislation that would outlaw junk food from schools so that more children will qualify to enroll in the military.
The group believes that “national security” is America’s top priority, so it is doing everything it can to increase military enrollment, even if that means supporting and passing federal food restriction legislation.
DAVID KELLY’S DENTAL RECORDS WERE STOLEN
A former pathologist demanded an inquiry into Dr David Kelly’s death
By James Murray
A FORMER pathologist today demands a full inquest into the death of nuclear weapons expert Dr David Kelly as the Sunday Express discloses fresh details of the mysterious theft of his dental records.
As the family of Dr Kelly privately marked the seventh anniversary of his death yesterday, Dr Peter Fletcher urged Prime Minister David Cameron to order an inquest because the circumstances surrounding this tragic episode “stink”.
Lord Hutton has controversially ruled that 59-year-old whistleblower Dr Kelly killed himself by cutting the small ulnar artery on his left wrist when under severe pressure over the leaking of information to BBC journalist Andrew Gilligan about Iraq’s ability to use weapons of mass destruction.
His body was found during a huge police search in woodland at Harrowdown Hill a few miles from his home in Southmoor, Oxfordshire, on July 18, 2003.
The Prime Minister must order an inquest as the circumstances of this tragic episode stink
Former pathologist Dr Peter Fletcher
Speaking exclusively to the Sunday Express, Dr Fletcher, a highly respected retired pathologist and former chief scientific officer at the Department of Health, said: ‘‘From all the considerable reports I have read, Dr Kelly did not lose enough blood to cause his death.
“He would have had to lose three to four pints of blood but all the known evidence shows there was only a small amount at the scene. I don’t believe a coroner would determine he died of haemorrhage based on the evidence.”
Although an inquest was opened and a coroner assigned, it was decided that Lord Hutton himself would have the power to determine cause of death and that his public inquiry would effectively act as an inquest.
AP, DPA, Reuters journalists targeted by Israeli forces
Hebron – Ma’an – Israeli forces fired percussion grenades directly at two journalists on Saturday, hitting them in the face and back during a Beit Ummar protest against continued land confiscations by a nearby Israeli settlement. 
A third photojournalist was physically assaulted by armed Israeli personnel, and was taken to hospital for treatment by Red Crescent Paramedics.
Medics said Reuters photojournalist Abed Khweisa was treated checked for facial bone fractures after a sound bomb hit him in the cheek, while DPA photographer Abdul-Hafidh Hashlamoun was treated for bruises on his back after being struck by a second canister shot from a high-velocity launcher.
Hazim Badr, medics said, was beaten by soldiers and treated for bruises. All three said they were covering the protest when they were targeted.
One protester was reported injured, identified as 43-year-old Ahmad Khalil Abu Hashim, secretary-general of the local anti-land confiscation committee.
An Israeli military spokesman said soldiers were dispatched to the area when the protesters approached the perimeter fence surrounding the illegal Karmi Tzur settlement, and “responded with riot dispersal means when protesters began hurling rocks” at the soldiers.
Addressing a question about the targeting of members of the press, the spokesman said “anyone who chooses to be present at violent riots … does so at their own risk.”
In a swiftly-issued condemnation of the assault, the Palestinian Journalists Syndicate released a statement saying (PJS) a fourth journalist, Eyad Hamad with the AP, was detained “for few hours,” and said soldiers had damaged his camera.
The military spokesman confirmed that one “civilian who stood with the rioters” was taken in for questioning and released.
The society said it “condemns this attack and urges local, regional and international advocates of press freedom and human rights to pressure Israel to stop its attacks on Palestinian journalists.”
Former Canadian soldier speaks out against ‘disgusting’ child rape in Afghanistan
Former Cpl. Travis Schouten claims he witnessed an Afghan boy being sexually assualted by Afghan security personnel at Canada’s Forward Operating Base Wilson in Afghanistan in 2006.

Every day, Travis Schouten lives with the image of the rape of an Afghan boy at a Canadian Forces base.
Witnessing two men, one armed with a knife, sodomize the child during an incident in late 2006 helped drive the 26-year-old to the brink of mental collapse.
But the former corporal said the assault is just the tip of an iceberg and underneath lies the systemic sexual abuse of boys at the hands of Afghanistan’s police and army. It’s something he said the Canadian Forces has turned a blind eye to.
“It’s disgusting,” said Schouten, now retired after eight years in the military. “We’re telling people that we’re trying to build a nation there and we let this happen?”
“We allow rampant abuse of young boys at the hands of what is supposed to be their finest police officers and army officers, then what does that say?”
Schouten’s allegations that Afghans were sexually abusing children at a Canadian base near Kandahar made headlines in 2008 but earlier this year, military investigators dismissed the claims as unfounded.
He is, however, not alone in voicing his concerns. Defence Department records show military police were upset about such incidents but were told not to interfere. Army officers also met in 2007 to discuss the issue of Afghan security personnel “having anal sex with young boys” but their main concern was the media would somehow find out.
Others in the military note they were told such practices were an age-old part of Afghan culture. One soldier who e-mailed Canwest News Service stated he served at the same base at another time and troops had orders to stop any rapes. But he also noted they were told the practise of “Man Love Thursdays,” as it was called, involved consenting Afghans and no one was raped by older men. The children involved were given small gifts or money in return for sex, soldiers said.
