Fox News Manipulates Video

The media spliced in an applause track.  Instead of neo-conservative war monger John Bolton being booed, Fox News spliced in weak applause.

War Drums Beat

While the war drums against Iran continue to beat, and economic and banking sanctions are being place on Iran, the US Department of Defense says, "Tehran has not made a decision to proceed with developing a nuclear weapon."

Why are war-mongers running the world? Who benefits?

Paul Craig Roberts says:

As a signatory to the non-proliferation treaty, Iran has the right to develop nuclear energy. IAEA inspectors are permanently in Iran and report no diversion of nuclear material to a weapons program.

In other words, according to the reports of the International Atomic Energy Agency, the US National Intelligence Estimate, and the current Secretary of Defense, there is no evidence that Iran has nukes or is making nukes. Yet, Obama has placed illegal sanctions on Iran and continues to threaten Iran with military attack on the basis of an accusation that is contradicted by all known evidence.

Missouri Town Ends Water Medication

Unlicensed application of the toxic/medicine fluoride in municipal water is receiving push-back in some communities.

Mayor seals vote to remove fluoride from water

Alderman Rob Ross moved to remove fluoride from the city’s water, seconded by Alderman Darren Crowder. The issue, frequently revisited in the last two years and voted on twice by the board, came up again at the board’s Jan. 26 work session as a way to save money when the city was cutting its budget by about $400,000.

The council understands the scope of their authority does not extend into health medication:

“I think providing fluoride pills or washes or anything like that is the responsibility of the Polk County Health Department and not the responsibility of the city council,” Best said. “We should not get involved in health care.”

Repeat Shooter

"The Arizona police officer who shot and killed an unarmed man while he held his baby grandson has been involved in at least five previous fatal shootings, police said.

...

Afterward, detectives determined that Loxas wasn't armed."

The police officer shot and killed an unarmed person. This is outrageous.
