IS Aspartame in All Soda?

IS Aspartame in All Soda? By Dr. Betty Martini, D.Hum 10-11-10 I haven't heard this although Dr. James Bowen once told me every once in awhile they add it in some markets to see if people an tell. Dr. Bowen has ALS from aspartame and like most aspartame victims is chemically hypersensitive for life. An aspartame victim can always tell when aspartame is in a product, labeled or not. The problem is the manufacturers know aspartame is addictive. Like in the case of Mars I called them and asked if aspartame were in their products and they told me "yes, in Mars Bars". I said, "But its not labeled," and they said, its under natural flavors. I tried one and sure enough ...

Poster Comment:Question(s) for some here, and that I'd like to see polled nationally: Do you currently feel threatened in a significant way, in terms of loss of liberty, by your Federal Government? If so, why? Think that through. After careful thought and consideration, make a mental note of your answers and then read on... * * * * * * * * Now, suppose for a moment that the US: 1. withdrew its military resources/hardware/armies from around the world; 2. built a fence/wall on the US/Mexican border with all of the bells and whistles (that would cost about the same as a single day of war otherwise); 3. reduced the size of its military to bare minimum levels with a reserve system at ...
Nobel Politics

Nobel Politics - by Stephen Lendman Since first awarded in 1901, Nobel Peace recognition went to 98 individuals and 23 organizations. Last year, another war criminal won, Barack Obama, one among many previous ones. A earlier article on the Nobel Committee's long and inglorious tradition may be accessed through the following link: http://sjlendman.blogspot.com/2009/10/october-surprise-peace-prize-to-war.html Nearly always, politics, not merit, determines awards. Consider past winners, including Henry Kissinger, three Israeli war criminals (Shimon Peres, Yitzhak Rabin, and Menachem Begin), the Dalai Lama (a past and likely current CIA asset), Elie Wiesel (a hawkish Islamophobe), Kofi ...

Obama's Shadowy Drone War - Taking Out the Terrorists by Remote Control

Obama's Shadowy Drone War Taking Out the Terrorists by Remote Control By Klaus Brinkbäumer and John Goetz Under former US President George W. Bush, the CIA used dubious methods, including the kidnapping and torture of suspects. President Barack Obama promised to clean things up, , but instead he has turned to joystick warfare. These days, the CIA does its killing with the press of a button, with high-tech drone aircraft. He had stood in Hyde Park and had spoken of a new America, of a ruptured world that he intended to fix and unite. Then, two days after the election, when he was still at home in Chicago, Barack Obama was asked to attend a meeting in a downtown office. He was ...

US branding of Pakistan aid 'putting lives at risk' Published Date: 12 October 2010 By Rob Crilly in Islamabad AMERICAN demands that US-funded aid is labelled with a red, white and blue logo are putting aid workers' lives at risk in Pakistan, according to charities helping millions of people affected by devastating floods. Aid organisations, including Oxfam, Save the Children and World Vision, are writing to officials in Washington to rethink their use of labels that read "From the American People" before lives are lost to Western-hating militants. Charities have come under increasing pressure from the US Agency for International Aid (USAid) after Richard ...

The Karzai Family Fortune, Courtesy of U.S. Taxpayers Written by Michael Tennant Wednesday, 06 October 2010 09:10 The average Afghan — and, indeed, the average American — may be deriving very little benefit from the United States’ continued occupation of Afghanistan and the billions of U.S. taxpayer dollars that continue to be poured into that country, but in both countries the well-connected make out quite handsomely. In Afghanistan, the key to prosperity and power, it seems, is having the surname of Karzai, as in President Hamid Karzai. “In recent years,” the New York Times’ James Risen reports, “dozens of Karzai family members and close allies have ...

Afghanistan: Does anyone in the US still care? By Josh Rushing in * Americas on October 9th, 2010. Photo by Iraq Veterans Against the War The invasion of Afghanistan’s ninth anniversary passed in DC this week with hardly a notice. Media desperate to illustrate the story flocked to a small demonstration of less than two dozen veterans of the so-called global wars on terror. A rag-tag group of angry, disillusioned and, most of all, disappointed vets gathered in front of Walter Reed Army Medical Center where thousands upon thousands of service members have returned from war to treat their wounds. The veterans there for the demonstration held a ceremony at the gates of the iconic ...

Saturday, October 09, 2010 JEW WARS ARE JUSTIFIED WHEN JEW MEDIA SCARE THE MASSES WITH "FALSE FLAGS" US Admiral James G. Stavridis, the current head of EUCOM who also holds the needlessly pompous title of NATO’s Supreme Allied Commander for Europe discussed the largely nebulous terror threat against Europe, insisting it justifies the ongoing war in Afghanistan. By Stavridis’ reasoning the war in Afghanistan is because of a “threat stream” including 9/11 that is continuing from the reason this day, insisting it was prima facie evidence that the war had some purpose. The US State Department issued a travel warning for the entire continent of Europe this week, ...
War as domestic distraction

Progressive writer Randolph Bourne once wrote that “war is the health of the state.” This is true in the sense that the government can use war to distract citizens from domestic problems and conflicts by uniting subjects in common support and admiration of the government and its supposedly necessary or noble military activity. At a 2002 anti-war rally in Chicago, President Obama made just this point in reference to Bush’s war in Iraq: “What I am opposed to is the attempt by political hacks like Karl Rove to distract us from a rise in the uninsured, a rise in the poverty rate, a drop in the median income, to distract us from corporate scandals and a stock market that has ...

6 October 2010 Last updated at 18:45 ET Nato contractors 'attacking own vehicles' in Pakistan By Riaz Sohail BBC News, Karachi Tankers on fire near Quetta, Pakistan (6 Oct 2010) Nato supply convoys travelling through Pakistan to Afghanistan have regularly come under attack in the past, but following Pakistan's decision to block their route through the Khyber Pass, they now face an even bigger security threat. Hundreds of tankers and trucks have been left stranded on highways and depots across Pakistan, with little or no security. Taliban militants have regularly been targeting the convoys, even when they are heavily protected. But many believe it is not just the ...

Support the Troops? [Full Thread]
Post Date: 2010-10-08 06:20:50 by Ada

No way! We often hear, from antiwar activists as well as pious politicians and every sort of commentator, that we should all "support the troops." No matter what one thinks of the particular war being fought, this kind of boilerplate is invariably appended: "But of course," we are told, "everyone supports the troops." We honor them for their service. We pat them on the back and say: "Good job!" In this context, consider the details of the most recent atrocity coming out of Afghanistan, the activities of the "Thrill Kill platoon," which is accused of murdering Afghan civilians and keeping body parts as trophies. The alleged mastermind of ...
Afghanistan War: Who is part of the problem?

Pakistan is part of the solution and not part of problem. While it is gratifying that the US has at long last realized the importance of Pakistan, but Pakistan can be of real use only when it is treated as an ally and not as a satellite. Having lost the war on terror in Afghanistan because of faulty policies and priorities, the US at this belated stage is in no position to reverse the tide and win the war. Minimum it can hope for is to salvage its troops out of the boiling cauldron of Afghanistan in one piece and with grace. Had the US treated Pakistan as an ally and relied upon Pak Army and ISI rather than on untrustworthy India, Israel and Afghan government, it could have ended the war ...

Obviously, I can't stop it, but maybe I can laugh at it:Oct. 7 (Bloomberg) -- Warlords named for characters in a Quentin Tarantino movie and rocks used to simulate guards at untended posts illustrate mismanagement of U.S. security contracting in Afghanistan, a Senate investigation found. The Senate Armed Services Committee, in a report issued today after a yearlong probe, detailed cases of private security contractors funneling U.S. taxpayer dollars to warlords tied to murder, kidnapping and bribery. Some of the people paid with U.S. funds worked with the Taliban or took part in actions directed against the U.S.-led coalition fighting the war, the committee concluded. ... ArmorGroup ...

Killing Each Taliban Soldier Costs $50 Million Killing 20 Taliban costs $1 Billion / Killing all the Taliban would cost $1.7 Trillion By Matthew Nasuti INFORMATIONCLEARINGHOUSE.INFO October 05, 2010 "Kabul Press" - -- The Pentagon will not tell the public what it costs to locate, target and kill a single Taliban soldier because the price-tag is so scandalously high that it makes the Taliban appear to be Super-Soldiers. As set out in this article, the estimated cost to kill each Taliban is as high as $100 million, with a conservative estimate being $50 million. A public discussion should be taking place in the United States regarding whether the Taliban have become too expensive ...
