Read more: 'US to Use al-Qaeda as Allies in Libya' There ARE no 'enemies' in the 'war on terror' because (a) there is no 'war on terror', only a war on freedom, and (b) the whole manipulated movie is based on my enemy's enemy is my friend - in other words, what suits us to do and say at the time we will do and say. Tuesday, 12 April 2011 10:09 'Capital must protect itself in every possible way, both by combination and legislation. Debts must be collected, mortgages foreclosed as rapidly as possible. When, through process of law, the common people lose their homes, they will become more docile and more easily governed through the strong arm of the government applied by a central power of wealth under leading financiers. These truths are well known among our principal men, who are now engaged in forming an imperialism to govern the world. By dividing the voter through the political party system, we can get them to expend their energies in fighting for questions of no importance. It is thus, by discrete action, we can secure for ourselves that which has been so well planned and so successfully accomplished.' - Montagu Norman, Governor of The Bank Of England, addressing the United States Bankers' Association, New York, 1924. Or, as David Icke put it in last week's newsletter ... 'The Left v Right political 'spectrum' has been constructed to divide and rule the people while the same network controls and funds both 'sides' and so dictates the political agendas and their direction. George Galloway is every bit a pawn as, say, Margaret Thatcher, John McCain or Sarah Palin. They are simply called Left and Right, red or blue, in the same way that pawns in a chess game are different colours, but the same pawns with the same worth.' Tuesday, 12 April 2011 08:56 'Interest rates are set to quadruple within a year, adding more than £100 a month to a typical mortgage, a senior Bank of England adviser has warned. Families should brace themselves for a rate rise as officials try to get to grips with soaring inflation, said Andrew Sentance, of the Bank’s Monetary Policy Committee. Mr Sentance added that the ‘balance of opinion’ on the MPC, which sets interest rates, was shifting in favour of an increase – the first since March 2009.'

Agents of the Federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms appeared to have aided and encouraged the illegal purchase of high-powered firearms in United States gun shops, pushed the gun shop owners to sell the guns, and then aided the smuggling of the guns into Mexico. The Obama White House apparently channeled more than $10 million of Obama Stimulus money to support this smuggling operation. A lot of money was made on this smuggling operation, and it is still unclear who authorized this apparent criminal activity and who were the recipients of this money.'

Tuesday, 12 April 2011 08:22 As a new political showdown looms over the economy following a defused budget row, aides also said President Barack Obama now "regrets" his vote as a senator against raising the debt ceiling in 2006, calling it "a mistake." "The consequences ... of failure to raise the debt ceiling would be Armageddon-like in terms of the economy," said White House spokesman Jay Carney.' Tuesday, 12 April 2011 05:24 'Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi has walked out of a court room during his tax fraud trial, saying the hearing was “a waste of time.” In an open court on Monday, about two and a half hours after the hearing started, Berlusconi, who was sitting at the front row with his lawyer, stepped out of the court room, accusing prosecutors of having no case against him. "I've spent a surreal morning, a paradoxical waste of time and a waste of resources," Berlusconi told reporters inside before leaving.'
“I think the US forces and NATO forces are becoming frustrated [in Libya],” said the editor of Pan-African News Wire, Abayomi Azikiwe, in a Press TV interview. “The US has seen the futility of the air operations against the Libyan government. This is for the simple fact that it has not been able to win any territory for the opposition forces in the Eastern part of Libya,” he added.
“That's why General Ham who is the new Commander of the US African Command came out several days ago, and said he does not rule out the deployment of ground forces in Libya,” Azikiwe pointed out.'
'The White House warned Republicans on Monday that failing to raise the $14.29 trillion US debt limit would spark "Armageddon-like" consequences for the slowly recovering US economy.
