Afghanistan’s government is rewriting history, literally.  The education ministry has endorsed a new history curriculum for school students that deletes nearly four decades of the country’s war-torn past.

The government says textbooks based on the new curriculum will help bring unity in a country traditionally polarised along ethnic and political lines.

But critics accuse ministers of trying to appease the Taliban and other powerful groups by erasing history that portrays them in a bad light. They say the government is trying to win over the Taliban before Nato and US forces leave the country. (more…)

(Via RT.com) […] The facts behind TrapWire continue to surface in the days since WikiLeaks exposed the state-of-the-art surveillance system, but minute-by-minute more is being revealed about not just the scary intelligence infrastructure but its questionable ties.

Last week, WikiLeaks published their latest addition to trove of the so-called Global Intelligence Files — emails uncovered from Texas-based Strategic Forecasting (Stratfor) by Anonymous late last year — in turn revealing a widespread surveillance system blanketing much of the United States and abroad. The project, TrapWire, is the brainchild of Abraxas, a Northern Virginia corporation that has cut countless deals with the federal government and is staffed by former agents out of not just the Pentagon but practically every leading intelligence agency in the country. As those connections are examined under a magnifying glass by researchers and hacktivists alike, though, more and more is being brought to light about the correlations that exist between the biggest of brothers and an entire industry that profits from pulverizing what is left of privacy.

THE BIG LIE

The radical progressive movement (progs), aka Fabian Socialists/Radical Left/Democrats, have once again begun a process of disinformation this time using the Wisconsin Sikh Temple shooting carried out by *WADE MICHAEL PAGE who they label as a “Neo Nazi”, or “skinhead”, or “White Supremacist”.

AND you will notice they use the term “Right Wing” in conjunction with these descriptives.

Total fabrication, and entirely made up.  It cannot be allowed to go unchallenged.

Early August 2011 President Obama said to a group of fundraisers and supporters “we are not even half way there folks”. At the time I wondered half way to where exactly? Then I remembered all the research on Obama’s formative ideology, his youth, and his background.   Perhaps today is a good day to refresh ourselves….…

(Via Trevor Loudon) Henry Wallace’s Progressive Party of the 1940s was nothing but a tool the Communist Party USA – and by extension, the Soviet Union. Today’s Democratic Party is also heavily infiltrated by the now pro-Chinese Communist Party USA and their almost as equally extreme comrades from Democratic Socialists of America. Here’s an interesting picture from the 1940s. Henry Wallace chatting with Chicago journalist and Progressive Party supporter Vernon Jarrett. (more…)

(Via Daily Caller) President Barack Obama’s regulatory czar Cass Sunstein is resigning his  position in the Obama administration, the White House announced on Friday.

Sunstein, until now the administrator of the Office of Management and  Budget’s powerful Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, will return to  Harvard Law School to resume the position he held before he joined Obama’s  administration three and a half years ago. He will be Harvard’s Felix  Frankfurter Professor of Law and Director of the Program on Behavioral Economics  and Public Policy. (more…)

The tank, the B-52, the fighter-bomber, the state controlled police and the military are the weapons of dictatorship. The rifle is the weapon of democracy… If guns are outlawed, only the government will have guns. Only the police, the secret police, the military, the hired servants of our rulers. Only the government—and a few outlaws. I intend to be among the outlaws.

Yesterday Mitt Romney was endorsed by former Polish Solidarity leader Lech Walesa.

Today the Iranian regime President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad threw his support behind President Obama.   Yep, pretty much sums up the choice right there. (more…)

Something several weeks ago snagged my interest when I was reading an article about Olympic security being provided by a private company called G4S.   Over the past decade London has become the PC capitol of all things Islam.   It really is quite over-the-top.

Aptly nicknamed “Londonistan” by those who have watched the British Police being cursed at, spit upon, and forced to tolerate the most horrific physical and verbal assaults by entities of Muslim persuasion, who exhibit the most horrid of violent radical islamic tendencies.   Several recent examples have been cited over the year.

So the concern that struck a nerve for me was given the backdrop of politically correct fear would radical elements of Islam be able to infiltrate the security apparatus around the Olympic venue(s).   And, if so, is it worrisome that a Fort Hood style coordinated extremist attack would be possible.

Recently I read more articles about how short staffed the security contingents were and how they are being supported with 4,500 regular uniformed British Military soldiers.  Given the comments by Mitt Romney to this regard it seemed as if my concern was more than a little over worried paranoia on my part.  But still, probably nothing.

However, it is indeed a fact that London is infected with the Cultural Marxism of political correctness.  So a modicum of concern is not out-of-bounds given the shere magnitude of the security task being handled.   When I read this today, my spidey senses picked up a bit too, and I wonder if…..

LONDON OLYMPICS – An Olympic guard faces the sack for spitting at an Army hero drafted in to  boost security — and yelling: “Baby killer.”  The Asian G4S worker flipped as he patrolled an archery contest at Lord’s  cricket ground with the Afghan veteran.

A source said: “This security guard was ranting and raving at the soldier.  “He was trying to defuse the situation but the guard was going crazy. He spat  at the soldier and screamed at him. He was calling him a baby killer.

“He left the soldier in no doubt he meant he’d been responsible for children’s  deaths while serving in Afghanistan.

“Despite the provocation, the soldier remained ice cool and didn’t lose his  calm. (more…)

First The White House, well, more specifically President Obama uses an executive order, intentionally non-reported by the media, to give the DHS full control over all privately owned communication networks nationally.  Cell phone, internet, and land based telecommunications.

Then the White House authorizes, (again by non-media reported executive order) the regime enforcement branch (DHS) to use military spy drones for use in all areas of ‘national importance’ to enforce “citizen safety“.

Following, and in preparation for, the regime enforcement branch (DHS) orders 450 million, yes million, hollowpoint bullets.     While ammunition itself seems not too unreasonable of a request by a major federal entity that emphasizes domestic durability and safeguarding the country from coast to coast, the choice — and quantity — of its hollow point order raises a lot of questions about future plans for the DHS.

ATK says they won their contract with the US government by being able to provide them with 450 million HST bullets, which it describes as “the next generation in high performance duty ammunition.”

What does that mean, exactly? On their website, the contractor claims that the ammunition is specifically designed so that it can pass through a variety of obstructions and offers “optimum penetration for terminal performance.” Or, in other words, this is the kind of bullet designed to stop any object dead in its tracks and, if emptied into the hands of the DHS a few hundred million times, just might do as much.

The regime then quietly (february) demands a control enforcement mechanism nullifying the 2nd Amendment in any proximity to a federal government official.  –  The US House of Representatives voted 388-to-3 in favor of H.R. 347  (Feb) a bill which is being dubbed the Federal Restricted Buildings and Grounds Improvement Act of 2011.
