Kissinger's War Crimes: Hillary VS Bernie
Source: TheIntercept.com
--Let's consider some of Kissinger's achievements during his tenure as Richard Nixon's top foreign policy–maker. He (1) prolonged the Vietnam War for five pointless years; (2) illegally bombed Cambodia and Laos; (3) goaded Nixon to wiretap staffers and journalists; (4) bore responsibility for three genocides in Cambodia, East Timor, and Bangladesh; (5) urged Nixon to go after Daniel Ellsberg for having released the Pentagon Papers, which set off a chain of events that brought down the Nixon White House; (6) pumped up Pakistan's ISI, and encouraged it to use political Islam to destabilize Afghanistan; (7) began the U.S.'s arms-for-petrodollars dependency with Saudi Arabia and pre-revolutionary Iran; (8) accelerated needless civil wars in southern Africa that, in the name of supporting white supremacy, left millions dead; (9) supported coups and death squads throughout Latin America; and (10) ingratiated himself with the first-generation neocons, such as Dick Cheney and Paul
Wolfowitz, who would take American militarism to its next calamitous level.

Why Are The Neocons so Desperate to Rescue Al-Qaeda in Syria?
Source: GlobalResearch.ca
--Ignatius's Washington Post, which has never seen a potential war it did not want to see turned into an actual war, thinks it a tragedy that the Syrian army's advance on al-Qaeda occupied Aleppo has "cut off all vital routes of supply from Turkey to the rebel-held areas of the city." Those would be Turkish supplies in support of al-Qaeda and ISIS rebels, but the Post is too deceptive to mention that fact.

Judge Who Sentenced Man to 55 Years Asks Obama to Set Him Free
Source: TruthInMedia.com
In 2002, then-24-year-old Weldon Angelos, a rap record label founder whose career was taking off after a collaboration with Snoop Dogg, sold $350 worth of pot to a police informant who happened to be a lifelong acquaintance on three separate occasions while in possession of a firearm for self defense.
Due to mandatory minimum sentencing laws, Angelos was arrested and sentenced to 55 years without the possibility of parole. Since then, Angelos has become a symbol of the injustice of mandatory minimum sentences. Those supporting his early release include U.S. Sens. Mike Lee (R-Utah) and Rand Paul (R-Ky.), the billionaire Koch brothers, and even former federal judge Paul G. Cassell, who sentenced him in the case.

Ron Paul: Is Congress Declaring War on ISIS…or on You?
Source: AntiWar.com
Passage of Senator Mitch McConnell's authorization for war against ISIS will not only lead to perpetual US wars across the globe, it will also endanger our civil and economic liberties. The measure allows the president to place troops anywhere he determines ISIS is operating. Therefore, it could be used to justify using military force against United States citizens on US territory. It may even be used to justify imposing martial law in America.
The President does not have to deploy the US military to turn America into a militarized police state, however. He can use his unlimited authority to expand programs that turn local police forces into adjuncts of the US military, and send them increasing amounts of military equipment. Using the threat of ISIS to justify increased police militarization will be enthusiastically supported by police unions, local officials, and, of course, politically-powerful defense contractors. The only opposition will come from citizens whose rights have been violated by a militarized police force that views the people as the enemy.

David Stockman: The Bubble Market is Nearing its End (Video)
Source: YouTube.com
Former White House Budget Director David Stockman contends, "We are nearing the end. I think the world economy is plunging into an unprecedented deflation recession period of shrinkage that will bring down all the markets around the world that have been vastly overvalued as a result of this massive money printing and liquidity flow into Wall Street and other financial markets."
On gold, Stockman says, "I think it's more of an insurance policy and an option on the ultimate failure of today's form of central banking. When, finally, the Keynesians, who are running all the central banks, when they are totally repudiated, I think gold will soar in value."

Cash is way more popular than stocks or bonds
Source: CNN
When investors are nervous, they flee risky assets like stocks for the safety of cash. That's exactly what's been happening lately. Since July 1, cash and money market funds have easily been the world's most popular asset class, attracting $208 billion of inflows, according to Bank of America Merrill Lynch.
By comparison, investors have poured a relatively paltry $7 billion into stocks and yanked $46 billion from bonds.

COMMENT: If you don't yet understand how ridiculous our "monetary system" is, read Dishonest Money, for free, here: http://stopthelie.com/dishonest-money.html
If you DO already understand, then ask yourself a simple question: Given the current mess the FED has created, how long before there is another major crash? Is it worth keeping your money invested (with a "best-case scenario" of tiny returns), when the next downturn could wipe out 20 percent or more of your money?
Getting back into cash isn't abut making money, it's about protecting the money you already have. Until they start another round of "stimulus," the odds of a large move down seem far more likely than even a small move up.

Tumors liquefied using sound waves
Source: NaturalNews.com
--In histotripsy, ultrasound-induced vibration leads to the production of bubbles formed from dissolved gases. If the vibration continues at high enough intensities, the bubbles eventually collapse, release a shock wave that can completely liquefy cells. A series of these collapses (known as inertial cavitation) can destroy a vast section of tissue, such as a tumor. Scientists can accelerate the process by injecting microbubbles into the tissue before the procedure.
Studies have shown that histotripsy can totally liquefy tumors, and can do so with remarkable precision and minimal impact on healthy surrounding tissue.
