American President Obama and Canadian Prime Minister Harper have unveiled a new border security agreement that has received scant attention in the American media. However, far from being a new arrangement, what this accord represents is only the latest in a chain of usurpations of national sovereignty.

Elites Launch Another Dystopian Mindbender
by Zen Gardner

December 18, 2011
How’s that for cognitive dissonance? After outright media blackout, ridicule, and violent police oppression, this mind-bending “honor” arises. Smell anything fishy here?
AFP – Time magazine named the collective “protester” around the world as its person of the year Wednesday, citing the change brought by street demonstrations from Arab countries to New York.
The shared honor for protesters beat the traditional individual contenders, who included Admiral William McCraven, commander of the US mission to kill Al-Qaeda founder Osama bin Laden.
“There’s this contagion of protest,” managing editor Richard Stengel said on NBC television. “These are folks who are changing history already and they will change history in the future.” Source
When the PTBs honor demonstrators on one of their flagship publications, and globalist Richard Stengel publicly endorses these “folks changing history”, you know you’re being “teed up”. You also now know that, yes, they were behind much of this international movement, which has worked very nicely to dismantle one government after another in their march toward World War 3 and world domination. Or so they hope.
Is this a change of strategy? Why?
Some Reasons
- If you can’t stop it, steer it. Manipulate the message to meet your needs. In this case, appear to be the “good guy” and proponent of freedom for the underdog. Old saw, but works.
- Encourage more public dissent. Why? The game’s changed. Thanks to our traitorous government, with the recent draconian developments in not only warrantless detainment but internet intrusion and soon free range censorship, these wicked minions appear to be in a rush to the goal line. And they’d no doubt like to give these news powers a test drive.
- Timing. For some reason they feel the urgency to put the clamps on hard, and quickly. Is something coming down the pike?
- Fear. Do they sense a real awakening amidst their manipulating and want to seal the pot before it boils over? You know what that will only do. So, is that their intention?
The Dystopian Freedom “Front”
At the very least, to so-called honor the “demonstrator” while telling your robocops to spray mace in their faces and club and arrest them is along the lines of Obama’s Nobel Peace prize. Only screwier. For these self-appointed, self-righteous media moguls to completely about-face is another effort to mess with our heads.
We get it, but the rest of the world is being led by the nose down a path to complete chaos.
This is similar to the whacked-out power freak Hillary going around preaching human rights and democracy, while planting subversives and handing out weapons like Halloween candy. For some hypnotic reason, the masses will fall for these false fronts of words and erudite rhetoric even while their eyes tell them the opposite. Nothing like a regular dose of cognitive dissonance to keep the masses mindnumbed.
But such is our Orwellian dystopia.
Smart Resistance
But this tells me it’s time to get smarter. We need to see what’s coming down the road, and be awake, aware, nimble and on our toes.
The new martial law provisions are a game changer. Everyone has different strategies to assert their freedom, but knowing the brutality that the police state is capable of on the streets, it might be wise to reevaluate other tactics that could prove more effective, rather than get brutalized or “disappeared”.
Our resistance to tryanny is most effective via non-compliance. Any and every way we can stop participating in this false structure, economically, politically, and even socially when it comes to the shallow bread and circus media foolishness.
Conclusion.
This phony war on terror has succeeded in demonizing just about anyone who isn’t a wet noodle. I mean when they’re policing your behavior and even intentions, which in effect is what the TSA is now implementing through this Pavlovian stimulus-response ritual, it’s pretty far gone.
When people say the shit’s gonna hit the fan, apparently they lost their sense of smell. We’re already being sprayed, and more every day. The PTBs work incrementally, till you’re living in crap and don’t even notice. The final societal breakdown and confusion is just a final physical manifestation of everything they’ve meticulously set in place.
Be Wise as Serpents and Harmless as Doves
Some good advice from a true freedom fighter. Truth and love are our weapons, and they cannot be stopped or quenched under any circumstances. Only fear can keep us from access to those tools, so it’s imperative to stay conscious and exercise our intuitive powers like never before.
Our ultimate weapon is to be in tune with the Universe, God, whatever you want to call It, and doing what we’ve been called to do. We need to learn to listen to and heed that Voice in our hearts. There’s no surveilling that one.
And the good news? it’s free and easy access to any child of Light!
Much love, Zen

‘Fog of pre-war over Syria’ (video)
RT
December 16, 2011
The UN Security Council is pouring over the details of a new draft resolution on Syria, put forward by Russia. It condemns all sides in the ongoing conflict, calling for violence to stop – but there’s no mention of sanctions. Moscow’s been trying to mediate a peaceful solution for months, but there’s been little let-up in the violence. Over two dozen state security officers were killed in recent clashes by defectors. The Free Syrian Army claims to have more than 25-thousand troops, fighting to bring down President Assad. Western states still don’t acknowledge that anti-regime protesters are armed. For more on this RT talks to Pepe Escobar, columnist and an Asia Times correspondent, joining us from Sao Paulo.
Western Hitlerian Madness Meets Russian Sense
Russia Supports Internal Dialogue in Syria, Rejects Ultimatums Language
Land Destroyer Report
December 14, 2011
MOSCOW/ NEW YORK, Dec 14, 2011 (SANA) – Russia’s Foreign Minister, Sergei Lavrov, renewed on Tuesday his country’s rejection of using the language of ultimatums in dealing with Syria by the Arab League (AL).
Lavrov stressed that dialogue is the only way to reach a solution to the situation in Syria.
At a press conference with his Algerian counterpart, Murad Medelci, in Moscow, Lavrov pointed out that the armed groups in Homs province are bombarding military units, government buildings and hospitals in the city to create a human catastrophe and make a pretext for foreign interference.
He stressed his country’s rejection of any sanctions against Syria, clarifying that sanctions would give opposite results.
Lavrov said that his country is ready to send observers to Syria, pointing out to the possibility of sending observers from the BRICS countries.
Canada Leaves Kyoto Protocol For The Wrong Reasons
by Amir Alwani
Potent News
December 19, 2011
Canada recently caused quite a stir when it withdrew from the Kyoto Protocol. Peter Kent, our environment minister said,
To meet the targets under Kyoto for 2012 would be the equivalent of either removing every car, truck, ATV, tractor, ambulance, police car and vehicle of every kind from Canadian roads or closing down the entire farming and agriculture sector and cutting heat to every home, office, hospital, factory and building in Canada.
When I was initially informed that Canada was pulling out I knew there had to be more to the story. It sounded too good to be true. From my extensive research I had long ago come to the conclusion that the threat of what was first called “global warming” and then “climate change” was in fact a non-threat for various reasons which were amply documented on many websites in great detail. Climategate and the recent Climategate 2.0 represent the tip of the iceberg when it comes these details. That iceberg, unlike the iceberg in climate-alarmists’ collectivist-fantasy-oven, will not melt anytime soon (as long as dictators don’t impede the free flow of information on this sacred internet).
Unfortunately, one of the major reasons for Canada exiting was that the protocol didn’t cover enough countries. The exit had absolutely nothing to do with this global warming hoax being shattered.
Maybe I was a fool to ever have a glimmer of hope that our politicians would take some time to seriously investigate something which the entire world has now been being guilt-tripped about for ages.
Toronto film-maker/reporter Dan Dicks’ captured my sentiments about Canada’s exit 100% and gives a great breakdown of the basic method by which totalitarian governments slowly creep into our daily existence. The key word is slowly:
Global problems cause people to want global solutions and if you can come up with some crazy scam of a problem to forge onto the consciousness of an innocently unsuspecting population then you have the ignorant public by the balls.
In reality the world loves us, clearly wants us to be able to grow pot almost anywhere, wants us to be able to extract DMT from almost any plant out there, wants to amaze us through dreams when we sleep at night, and wants us to enjoy the heck out all the different wonderful things life has to offer.
Elites seek to keep us separated from each other and from this divine truth but we are only troubled insofar as we neglect to update our definition of abundance (which means friends, food, shelter, family) and insofar as we allow ourselves to ignore our own experience. You get what you need, not what you want. Unfortunately, elites are desperately trying to trick us into believing that we live in an era that does not (or cannot) even get what it needs. There’s not enough to go around, they say.
Their solution? Look at the root cause of our problems to discover hidden masters pulling strings? No. Actually, their solution is Agenda 21.
If you’ve never heard of Agenda 21, watch this video now:
Sadly, our MP in Halifax either seems to have fallen for this CO2 hoax or has ulterior motives. Last week, The Huffington Post reported:
Megan Leslie, a member of Canada’s parliament and a Halifax-based member of the New Democratic Party, told The Huffington Post in an email that Kent and the conservative government of Stephen Harper were exaggerating the impacts of Canada’s participation in Kyoto — and the penalties associated with failing to meet targets. “He’s essentially created a Kyoto bogeyman who will come after your cars and bank accounts,” Leslie said. “His spin was reprehensible.”
Reprehensible? I can’t speak for Peter Kent, but I can say that his take on it seems to be rather tame compared the scenario depicted in a chilling infomercial titled “Planned-Opolis”, which Prison Planet cited was funded by, “Bank of America, the City of London Corporation, PepsiCo UK, Time Warner, and crucially Royal Dutch Shell – which of course is one of the biggest emitters of CO2 on the planet”:
Here’s The Truther Girls elaborating on how insane this infomercial is:
Remember, I’m not saying pollution doesn’t exist and I’m not saying Peter Kent loves us. I’m saying that everybody better get acquainted with an age-old trick that should have been taught to all of us in school – problem, reaction, solution. For activists, truth seekers and awake people this formula is old news.
As Dan Dicks mentioned in the first video above, we should keep a close eye on this situation in the coming weeks. Don’t be fooled by the drama. The global warming hoax seems to be alive and well. We should remain aware that the community is composed of individuals and that giving up an individual’s rights for the benefit of the community simply does not make any sense at all. That has not made sense in the past, it doesn’t make sense now and it will never make sense. Collectivism amounts to nothing more than a scam.

US-Funded “Activist” Becomes President of Tunisia
From A-Z, the Arab Spring is Fake.
by Tony Cartalucci
Land Destroyer Report
December 13, 2011
The BBC hails Tunisia’s assembly and their election of a new president in their article, “Tunisian activist, Moncef Marzouki, named president.” What the BBC predictably fails to mention is that Marzouki’s organization, the Tunisian League for Human Rights, was a US National Endowment for Democracy and George Soros Open Society-funded International Federation for Human Rights (FIDH) member organization.
Photo: Tunisia’s new “president,” Moncef Marzouki, a veteran Western collaborator whose last two decades of political activity have been supported and subsidized by the US government and US corporate-financier funded foundations.
It was earlier reported in “Soros Celebrates the Fall of Tunisia,” that Marzouki was named “interim-president” of Tunisia and that the myriad of NGOs and opposition organizations that worked with him to overthrow the government of Tunisia were fully subsidized and backed by the US government and US corporate-funded foundations.
Marzouki, who spent two decades in exile in Paris, France, was also founder and head of the Arab Commission for Human Rights, a collaborating institution with the US NED World Movement for Democracy (WMD) including for a “Conference on Human Rights Activists in Exile” and a participant in the WMD “third assembly” alongside Marzouki’s Tunisian League for Human Rights, sponsored by NED, Soros’ Open Society, and USAID.
Marzouki, along with his Libyan counterpart Abdurrahim el-Keib, formally of the Petroleum Institute, sponsored by British Petroleum (BP), Shell, France’s Total, the Japan Oil Development Company, and the Abu Dhabi National Oil Company, makes for the second Western proxy installed into power either by covert sedition or overt military aggression, during the US-engineered “Arab Spring.” Western proxies in Egypt including Mohamed ElBaradei and Mamdouh Hamza are also vying for power in the wake of similar foreign-fomented unrest, while NATO backed militants harbored in Turkey are attempting to overthrow the government of Syria by force.
The Arab Spring is Fake
Gene Sharp of the Albert Einstein Institution penned the book “From Dictatorship to Democracy,” originally designated for the destabilization and recolonization of Myanmar, still called “Burma” throughout much of the West. Sharp’s book would be utilized by the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) throughout Eastern Europe, throughout Asia, and eventually, in 2011, for the US-engineered “Arab Spring.”
According to Sharp’s own Albert Einstein Institution (AEI) 2000-2004 annual report, AEI had been sponsored by the US government’s National Endowment for Democracy (NED) and its funded subsidiary International Republican Institute (IRI) to train activists in Serbia (page 18) Zimbabwe (page 23) and Myanmar (page 26) to help overthrow their respective sovereign governments.
Australia’s Southern Cross University’s “Activating Human Rights & Peace (AHRP)” conference had put out a revealing account of their 2008 proceedings illustrating that all of Gene Sharp’s work, beyond what was even mentioned in his own institution’s annual report, had been fully funded and in support of the US government and its global domineering agenda. Beginning on page 26, Sharp’s affiliations, in particular with the National Endowment for Democracy, which is described as carrying out “a lot of work that was formerly undertaken by the CIA,” as well as the Ford Foundation, and billionaire Wall Street patriarch George Soros’ Open Society Institute are fleshed out in immense detail.
The “Arab Spring” itself was not spontaneous, nor was it indigenous. Rather it was a was a premeditated geopolitical plot engineered by US corporate-financier interests years in advance. The New York Times in its article, “U.S. Groups Helped Nurture Arab Uprisings,” clearly stated as much when it reported, “a number of the groups and individuals directly involved in the revolts and reforms sweeping the region, including the April 6 Youth Movement in Egypt, the Bahrain Center for Human Rights and grass-roots activists like Entsar Qadhi, a youth leader in Yemen, received training and financing from groups like the International Republican Institute, the National Democratic Institute and Freedom House, a nonprofit human rights organization based in Washington.”
Further confirming this were public statements made by the US State Department-sponsored “Alliance for Youth Movements” (AYM) counting Egypt’s April 6 Youth Movement among its above mentioned inaugural AYM summit attendees in New York City as far back as 2008. Foreign Policy magazine admited that April 6 received further training from CANVAS in Serbia, before fomenting unrest in Egypt. FP magazine would also report that “CANVAS has worked with dissidents from almost every country in the Middle East; the region contains one of CANVAS’s biggest successes, Lebanon, and one of its most disappointing failures, Iran.”
The destabilization in Iran, of course, was drawn up by corporate-funded Brookings Institution, as articulated in its “Which Path to Persia?” report, with the actual mechanics of organizing the foreign-funded revolution subcontracted to organizations like US-funded CANVAS, NED and its subsidiaries.
In an April 2011 AFP report, Michael Posner, the assistant US Secretary of State for Human Rights and Labor, stated that the “US government has budgeted $50 million in the last two years to develop new technologies to help activists protect themselves from arrest and prosecution by authoritarian governments.” The report went on to explain that the US (emphasis added) “organized training sessions for 5,000 activists in different parts of the world. A session held in the Middle East about six weeks ago gathered activists from Tunisia, Egypt, Syria and Lebanon who returned to their countries with the aim of training their colleagues there.” Posner would add, “They went back and there’s a ripple effect.” The ripple effect Posner is talking about is of course the “spontaneous” “Arab Spring” and bears a striking resemblance to the campaign of destabilization Gene Sharp and AEI perpetuated throughout Eastern Europe as described in detail in the above mentioned AHRP report.
Conclusion
With a similar gambit now playing out in Russia, fueled by the exact same Western organizations and foundations, not only is it obvious that Tunisia was overthrown, not by spontaneous, indigenous protests, but rather premeditated foreign-funded sedition carried out by the likes of Moncef Marzouki and his US-funded opposition group, it is also obvious that Tunisia was just one of many nations destabilized in the largest concerted geopolitical reordering since World War II. With Russia now targeted by foreign-fomented color revolutions, the US’ declaration of a new “American Pacific Century” aiming to contain China, and Western proxies beginning to climb into positions of power throughout Northern Africa and the Middle East, it is clear that the campaign of encirclement and destabilization of both Russia and China by the forces of global corporate fascism described in February 2011’s “The Middle East & then the World” is indeed an unfolding reality.
It is a necessity to research the backgrounds and affiliations of all political groups and NGOs, and assess both their funding and their affiliations. The National Endowment for Democracy is indisputably disingenuous in both their stated cause and their actions. Their board of directors alone betrays their motto of “Supporting freedom around the world,” as it is almost entirely made up of corporate-fascists, Neo-Conservative warmongers, and corporate lobbyists. The organizations, opposition groups, media outlets, and NGOs, they support seek to destabilize and destroy the nations they infest.
Exposing and fighting this disingenuous enterprise is important. Equally important is to identify the corporate-financier interests driving its true agenda and the global elites’ overarching plan of achieving global hegemony. Boycott these interests entirely out of business, and replace them with business models, institutions, and bodies of governance that truly serve “we the people.”
Flip Flopper Obama: WILL NOT VETO DETENTION BILL
By Mac Slavo
SHTFplan.com
December 14th, 2011
This evening the U.S. House of Representatives passed, with overwhelming support, the National Defense Authorization Act in a 283-to-136 vote.
You’ll note that at the time the legislation was being debated President Obama assured Americans that he would never sign the bill if it came to his desk.
The bill, which allows for the indefinite detainment of those, including American citizens, suspected of engaging in or supporting terrorist activity has not changed in any meaningful way over the last few weeks.
This, of course, leaves inquiring minds questioning why the President would have so abruptly reversed his position:
Less than a month after he threatened to veto terrifying legislation that would cease constitutional rights as we know it, Obama has revoked his warning and plans to authorize a bill allowing indefinite detention and torture of Americans.
After passing in the House of Representatives earlier this year, the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2012 went before the US Senate last week, where it was met with overwhelming approval. In the days before, the Obama administration issued a policy statement on November 17 saying explicitly that the president would veto the bill, as it would challenge “the president’s critical authorities to collect intelligence incapacitate dangerous terrorists and protect the nation.”
Opposition from the White House seemed all but rampant until RT revealed earlier this week that Senator Carl Levin told lawmakers that the legislation was altered because “the administration asked us to remove the language which says that US citizens and lawful residents would not be subject to this section.”
On Wednesday, White House Press Secretary Jay Carney said that those last minute changes yielded legislation that would “not challenge the president’s ability to collect intelligence, incapacitate dangerous terrorists and protect the American people,” and therefore “the president’s senior advisers will not recommend a veto.”
Originally the White House said that the administration objected to matters in the bill that applied to detainees. Under the act, Americans could be arrested and held indefinitely in military-run prisons and tortured without charges ever being brought forth, essentially making Guantanamo Bay a threat for every American citizen.
Source: RT
On December 5th, ahead of Congressional voting, Senator Rand Paul warned that the new legislation would allow the government to detain American citizens under terrorism laws without evidence, charge or trial.
Specifically, Paul cited the government’s own broad definitions and characterizations for domestic terrorism or suspicious activity as involving those who, among other things, own guns, ammunition or store food.
Bill Cosponsor John McCain (under questioning from Rand Paul) argues that detention (as defined by the National Defense Authorization Act) of anyone who is deemed a threat to the national security of the United States of America is appropriate:
The very fact that this bill was ever penned and allowed to get as far as it has gotten in our Constitutional Republic is cause for concern. A glimmer of hope existed for a few weeks when the President claimed he would veto it if it came to his desk.
As has been the case throughout this administration’s term, however, our hope was for naught. Someone, somewhere needs this legislation to pass. To what end we can only speculate.
