DEFEND THE INTERNET - BIG BROTHER STRIKES AGAIN!

2012-01-18T22:46:00.000-08:00

PROTECT IP / SOPA Breaks The Internet from Fight for the Future on Vimeo.

PLEASE SIGN GOOGLE PETITION HERE

Today was nuts, right?

Google launched a petition. Wikipedia voted to shut itself off. Senators' websites went down just from the sheer surge of voters trying to write them. NYC and SF geeks had protests that packed city blocks.

You made history today: nothing like this has ever happened before. Tech companies and users teamed up. Tens of millions of people who make the internet what it is joined together to defend their freedoms. The free network defended itself. Whatever you call it, the bottom line is clear: from today forward, it will be much harder to mess up the internet.

The really crazy part? We might even win.

Approaching Monday's crucial Senate vote there are now 35 Senators publicly opposing PIPA. Last week there were 5. And it just takes just 41 solid "no" votes to permanently stall PIPA (and SOPA) in the Senate. What seemed like miles away a few weeks ago is now within reach.

But don't trust predictions. The forces behind SOPA & PIPA (mostly movie companies) can make small changes to these bills until they know they have the votes to pass. Members of Congress know SOPA & PIPA are unpopular, but they don't understand why--so they're easily duped by superficial changes. The Senate returns next week, and the next few days are critical. Here are two things to think about:

1. Plan on calling your Senator every day next week. Pick up the phone each morning and call your Senators' offices, until they vote "no" on cloture. If your site participated today, consider running a "Call the Senate" link all next week.

2. Tomorrow, drop in at your Senators' district offices. We don't have a cool map widget to show you the offices nearest you (we're too exhausted! any takers?). So do it the old fashioned way: use Google, or the phonebook to find the address, and just walk in, say you oppose PIPA, and urge the Senator to vote "no" on cloture. These drop-in visits make our spectacular online protests more tangible and credible.

That's it for now. Be proud and stay on it!

--Holmes, Tiffiniy, and the whole Fight for the Future team.

TOXIC BABIES - HOW WE POISON OUR OWN CHILDREN EVERY DAY

In these videos doctors discuss poisonous commercial household products that poison us and our children every day. I recommend that everybody use only natural products, read the ingredients every time, buy only brands that you trust, be diligent, do your homework. Spend a little bit of time on the internet looking for more information. Companies can label products "natural" even if they are not. So you will have to take an extra step or two to decide what kind of products your child should be inhaling and absorbing through their skin. Making a "clean" impression is not worth dying for.

This video sent chills down my spine. It sounds just like stories that my mother had told me about communist repressions in Russia inthe 1930s.

All of us in this business had better wake up and smell the coffee!! The BIG GOVERNMENT Democrats and RINOs (Republicans in Name Only) are getting their "witch hunt" out there on the street to get rid of the "natural food and supplement industry."

Webmaster Jailed by Bush

2010-03-10T11:16:00.000-08:00

I posted this video that I made a couple years back. I just realized that it had been completely removed from the internet. That only proves my point even more.

This news clip is about Chris Wilson, an adult webmaster who was put in jail because the images that the US government was hiding so well from the American Public ended up on his website. US SOldiers were posting graphic images of dead Iraqis. The site became famous and the word spread quickly. The WHite House didn't like it. Watch the video to learn more.

Go to www.NowThatsFuckedUp.com and see for yourself what happened to free speech in America. Showing dead bodies is obscene, while killing people is perfectly fine - that's the policy of the White House.

Raw Milk Cures Cancer - Raw Milk hearing in Sacramento - April 15, 2008

2009-02-09T22:01:00.000-08:00

part 1:

A growing number of Amercians is using raw milk for its medicinal qualities. Raw milk is known to cure cancer. The purpose of this hearing in Sacramento is to shed light on the health and political aspects of raw milk industry. Today raw milk is about to become outlawed by corrupt politicians despite the outrage of the people.

part 2:

part 3:

Aajonus Vonderplanitz had cancer, leukemia, diabetes and a handful of other diseases in his early 20-s. He turned to conventional doctors who only destroyed his health even more. Finally Aajonus started looking for alternative cures and found a few. He chose one of them, he chose raw food diet that included animal products, especially raw dairy (raw milk and raw butter). Aajonus became a health pioneer. He cured himself completely. This past summer he celebrated his 60th birthday. He has since cured many people from cancer and leukemia as well as many other diseases.

http://wewant2live.blogspot.com/search/label/Testimonials

Here is my testimony that I sent to Aajonus Vonderplanitz (it can be found on his website along with many other testimonies):

Dear Aajonus,
my name is Gypsy Taub. I am a TV host and media activist in the Bay Area.
First of all, I would like to thank you for saving my life. I read your book on the Big Island of Hawaii when I was told that I most likely had cervical cancer. I refused the invasive diagnostic procedures that were offered to me by the hack doctors that hack your body parts off and call it a cure. They wanted to chop off half of my cervix just to see if I had cancer. So I said: "Thanks, but, no thanks!" Instead I started looking for a natural cure and found your book. I started eating a lot of raw foods and drinking a lot of raw milk. Within months the problem was gone. I can’t thank you enough! I feel that the best thing I can do to express my gratitude is to inform other people about your book.
Needless to say that I was mad to hear about the legislation against raw milk. I am familiar with the CODEX scam that the WTO is pulling on the whole world where they banned vitamins and supplements and made them prescription drugs. I remember how they were taken to court in Europe and lost the case, and since CAFTA was met with enourmous opposition in the US CAFTA was sort of abandoned (as far as I am aware), and CAFTA was supposed to be a tool to implement CODEX. So CODEX was averted for the time being. I am well aware of the conspiracy by the pharmaceutical industry to eradicate alternative medicine especially now when so many people are waking up and choosing alternative medicine.
I would like to add that even though it wasn't fully confirmed that I had cancer to begin with, I really believe I did. I found out years later that the area I was living in in Hawaii was highly contaminated with depleted uranium from the military base that was actively using it (and is to this day doing it) in their murder trainings. I was losing weight and my hair was falling out. So I think it is most likely that I did have cancer. As I mentioned earlier I was in no hurry to lose body parts just to find out if I had cancer.

"FLOW - for the love of water"

2008-12-03T18:34:00.000-08:00

This is a trailer to an amazing new documentary called "FLOW", a film about water, about the take over of this vital resource by big corporations. This is a great film from the depth of the heart. Filled with love for humanity and important information it will move you emotionally and give you hope for the future. I interviewed Steven Starr, the film producer, when the film was premiered in Berkeley in the fall of 2008. I also interviewed Sarah Joseph of Corporate Accountability International who helped organize the screening.

This is a short clip about Article 31 proposed to be added to the Declaration of HUman Rights by the makers of FLOW, it is the right to clean water as a basic human right.

Thanksgiving Dinner by a generous man from Yemen

2008-11-29T19:56:00.000-08:00

We went to an awesome free Thanksgiving Dinner on Thursday and ended up on the cover of Oakland Tribune the next day. If it wasn't for this article I would have never found out about this generous man from Yemen who put on this free dinner for 6 years in a row now. As it turns out it was the owner of the store next door who put on the dinner. Not once did he announce who he was, there was not a single branding item, no advertisement, nothing, just pure love, just pure generosity straight from the heart. Amazing!
The reporter lady Kristine Bender was very nice too. I really enjoyed her story:

Need is great on Thanksgiving Day in the East Bay

By Kristin Bender
Oakland Tribune
Updated: 11/28/2008 07:05:15 AM PST

OAKLAND — Gypsy Taub, David Depape and their three small children could have cooked and eaten a traditional Thanksgiving meal in the comfort of their Berkeley home and been happy enough. Instead, the young family chose to join 350 others at the Two Star Market for a community meal.

"No matter how much money we have, I still want to come to community dinners," Taub said. "I want to be in touch with real life. Financial independence is a great thing, especially if you have kids, but I don't want to lose touch with humanity."

For a sixth year, Abdo Alawdi, 34-year-old owner of the Two Star Market and liquor store in the Dimond district, has put on a community feast for anyone who wants a free, hot Thanksgiving meal. Volunteers, the Dimond Improvement Association, friends and family help out with the preparations and cost, which runs about $6,000, he said.

It was the first time Taub and Depape came to the feast, but they wasted no time eating, dancing, socializing and showing good cheer to strangers.

"We like to meet our neighbors. I want my children to learn that everyone is a human being and a friend," said Taub, who said she makes videos for public access television. "I also want my kids to learn about sharing. In Russia, where I am from, people share more, and I want my kids to grow up knowing sharing."

Like every year, there were dozens of community meals at churches, soup kitchens and businesses around the East Bay. But this year, with the state unemployment rate at more than 8 percent, the federal bailout $7 trillion, and foreclosures up 70 percent from this time last year, according to federal statistics, more people were looking for a free meal Thursday.

Brian Higgins, spokesman for the Alameda County Community Food Bank, said calls to the agency's emergency food line are up 39 percent in past year and 59 percent compared with two years ago. First-time callers to the help line are up 22 percent, he said.

"A lot of people are out of jobs, and a lot of people are looking for something to eat," said Mickey Ganitch, 89, of San Leandro, as he helped usher people to their tables at Lake Merritt United Methodist Church in Oakland. The church has been putting on a free Thanksgiving meal for 29 years and was packed an hour before serving time Thursday.

"There's a lot of people I haven't see before," said Ganitch, who has been the head usher at the church for 44 years.

The church usually plans for 500 meals. This year, they planned for 600, said Stephen Ford, Thanksgiving meal coordinator.

The church also has been running low on food Tuesdays and Sundays when church workers give away free bags of groceries, said volunteer Russ Aubry, of Berkeley.

"We've had to turn people away because we ran out of food," he said.

Two Star's Alawdi didn't run out of food Thursday. He had 25 turkeys, 500 pounds of chicken, 50 large trays of stuffing and other side dishes, and 35 pies. He bought much of the food on his own, but people also stopped by with goods to donate, volunteer Robert Raburn said.

"I had someone drive up and give us a case of wine. I've had people drive up and say, 'This is my mom's favorite recipe,' before handing over a tray of vegetables," he said. He also had nearly 100 volunteers come from as far away as San Jose and Brentwood to work the food line, decorate, grill chicken and clean up.

"We put this out on Craigslist.org. We're never going to do that again," Raburn said, smiling. "We've really seen a lot of generosity."

Annie Rockwell, of Oakland, hadn't volunteered at the Two Star before Thursday, but with President-elect Barack Obama — a man who wants to rekindle the spirit of volunteerism — about to take office, she hopes others will follow her lead and help out.

"Hopefully we will have a society that will organize to meet the needs (of others), but until then it's better to do what you can," she said.

Alawdi, who has run the store since the early 1990s, learned his charitable ways from his late grandfather, Mohamed, who back home in Yemen cooked for relatives and the community at the end of Ramadan and to mark the pilgrimage to Mecca, he said.

Alawdi said Thursday that the meal ran smoothly and the scene was about the same as last year, except for one change: "We need more food for the people."

Burke School and Its War Against the Neighborhood

2008-11-18T12:52:00.000-08:00

This is the very first documentary video I have ever made. It is about Burke School, a very prestidious school located in the Richmond district of San Francisco. Burke school lied to the board of supervisors of SF and exploited their feelings to blatantly steal a number of parking spots in front of the school and make it their own. The apartment building across the street that had always used that parking was affected the worst. Watch this documentary - it was a real pleasure to make - and see how lies can be uncovered and exposed if you choose to expose them.

Burke school management as well as many parents feel that other people don't matter, they can be disregarded and discarded. Burke school has been there for many years and all the neighbors (with the exception of very few whose kids go to Burke school) hate this school and what it stands for. Some parents whose kids go to Burke school were on our side and signed our petition against the school management and in favor of the neighborhood. Our petition has over 400 signatures (palmost every single neighbor signed it).

I aired this documentary on Public Access channel in San Francisco. As soon as it started airing Burke school principal called the station outraged and demanded that it be taken off the air. The station manager Zane Blaney refused to take it off the air.

CUANDO USTED QUEMA PLÁSTICO ESTÀ MATANDO A SUS HIJOS

2008-02-04T12:19:00.000-08:00

CUANDO USTED QUEMA PLÁSTICO ESTÀ MATANDO A SUS HIJOS

La mayoría de la gente que quema el desperdicio de plástico no se da cuenta cuan dañino es para su salud y para el medio ambiente.
Respirar humo de plástico causa cáncer de pulmón, disfunción renal, impotencia, problemas respiratorios, enfermedad del corazón, daño en el hígado, asma, enfisema, infertilidad, defecto de nacimiento, desequilibrio hormonal, daño en el sistema nervioso, obesidad, salpullido, nausea, dolores de cabeza y más…

Sí piensa que porque no calle muerto instantáneamente después de respirar el humo de plástico significa que no le causa ningún daño está equivocado. Por ejemplo todos sabemos cuan dañino es el humo del cigarro, donde las personas no caen muertas después de fumar un cigarro, en cambio la gente tiene una dolorosa y lenta muerte años después. ¿Dejaría usted a su hijo de tres años fumar cigarros? El humo del plástico es mucho más toxico que el humo del cigarro y especialmente dañino para niños pequeños. Cuando usted quema plástico usted está matándose lentamente y a sus seres queridos, así como a sus vecinos y a sus hijos, además se daña el medio ambiente privando a futuras generaciones de una limpia y saludable vida.

El plástico contiene muchas toxinas mortales y porque no es natural, el cuerpo humano no está equipado para eliminar las toxinas que su cuerpo ha estado acumulando en grasa corporal. Las madres pasan estos químicos directamente a sus bebés por medio de la placenta. Estás toxinas llamadas dioxinas se quedan en la tierra de siembra y así terminan en el agua y en nuestra comida.

LO QUE USTED PUEDE HACER:

1. Si usted ha estado quemando plástico levante todos los restos del montón de basura vieja porque contienen plástico derretido mezclado con tierra y comience uno nuevo en un nuevo lugar.
2. Separe el plástico: ponga todo lo que pueda contener plástico en una bolsa aparte. Désela al camión de la basura. Al fin el plástico no se pudre ni apesta. Si usted no cuenta con un servicio de recolección de basura trabaje con sus vecinos para exigir a las autoridades locales un servicio eficiente.
3. Evite los plásticos: pida a los vendedores no empacar su comida u otras cosas con bolsas y contenedores plásticos. Reuse sus bolsas o use otros tipos de bolsas. Evite platos, vasos o cubiertos desechables. De preferencia compre productos en envases de vidrio o metal y reúselos.
4. Composta. Los restos de plantas y árboles y todos los desechas de la comida pueden usarse como composta en su jardín. La composta sirve para nutrir sus plantas. Solamente cave un hoyo en la tierra y deposite los restos orgánicos y cúbralos con tierra. Si tiene vecinos que tienen cerdo puede darle sus restos de comida.
5. Reciclaje. Exija a sus autoridades organizar reciclaje de papel, vidrio, plástico y metales.
6. Regrese los plásticos de vuelta a la tienda y pida que sean regresados al productor para ser reciclados.

Si usted vive en un área de turismo no use los malos hábitos de los turistas de tirar basura como un pretexto para seguir contaminando su comunidad con humo de plástico.

De los beneficios que los dueños de los comercios obtienen del turismo se puede recolectar dinero para contratar personas que limpien las playas y los caminos y para que se lleven los desechas a las áreas designadas.

No ponga solamente anuncios que digan “No tire basura!” De le a las personas una alternativa y ponga contenedores que digan “Basura”.

Separe su basura en 1. recíclables (y recíclelos)
2. restos de comida (pongalos en composta)
3. el resto (para el camión de basura)

En general la contaminación del plástico quemado o sin quemar es una de las más grandes amenazas al medio ambiente y salud global. El plástico se sigue acumulando en nuestras tierras, océanos y en el aire alrededor del mundo y sofoca la vida en nuestro planeta. En San Francisco, California recientemente se ha establecido una ley que prohibe las bolsas de plástico en las tiendas como un primer paso para un futuro limpio y libre de plástico. Alternativas al plástico ya existen como por ejemplo platos y vasos hechos de maíz.

Es muy importante que todas las personas en el mundo nos unamos para exigir un futuro libre de plástico. Necesitamos darnos cuenta que depende de nosotros personas comunes tomar la responsabilidad por nuestro futuro personal, el futuro de nuestra comunidad y el futuro de nuestro planeta.

Por favor hable con sus vecinos, informe sus familiares y ayúdenos a curarnos a nosotros mismos y a nuestro planeta. Uno por uno, los montones de la basura van creando una gran diferencia.

Por favor pase este volante a otra persona después de leerlo. Haga copias y repártalas por el bien de todo el mundo.

No excuses

Stephen S. Pearcy

More stories by this author...

This article was published on 02.22.07.

Stephen S. Pearcy is a Sacramento attorney and peace activist

In addition to holding President George W. Bush and the U.S. Congress accountable for the illegal occupation of Iraq, American troops must also be prepared to accept responsibility. We’re all presumed to know the law. If we accept that fundamental legal presumption, then those of us who claim that the war is illegal must also acknowledge that the troops are unexcused aiders and abettors.

Lt. Ehren Watada’s case is a good example. Watada’s position is that he has a duty to refuse orders to deploy to Iraq because those orders effectively command him to pursue an illegal war. Watada correctly understands that obeying those orders could subject him to war-crime charges under a more just administration (which should try George W. Bush first).

Publicly available information about the Iraq invasion has become so plentiful over the last several years that reasonable people contemplating service in the U.S. military should know that people throughout the world regard participation in the occupation as tantamount to aiding and abetting in mass murder, fraud, human-rights violations, and international war crimes. By now, all of the troops should recognize this, and ignorance is no excuse.

The frequency of U.S.-sponsored war crimes in Iraq is such that it has become the norm rather than the exception. U.S. troops have intentionally and recklessly caused the deaths of so many Iraqi civilians, and continue to do so, that we can now properly regard acts in furtherance of the occupation effort generally to be acts substantially likely to facilitate crimes such as those that already have occurred.

From a legal standpoint, obeying Bush’s orders is akin to the Nazi soldiers who obeyed Hitler’s orders. And we know from the Nuremberg Trials that the “just following orders” excuse is invalid. Watada’s case suggests that we should question all troops’ willingness to follow their illegal orders.

Suggesting troop-responsibility for the illegal war is unpopular, but it also would have been unpopular during World War II for a German citizen to suggest that Nazi troops be held accountable for obeying their illegal orders. At the end of the day, it’s really no different.

I went to the peace march today with my 3 kids and David, the kids’ father. I really enjoyed the march. The marching band was awesome. Was it the Noise Brigade? (Forgive me for my ignorance.) I saw a lot of familiar faces, a lot of fellow activists from many peace marches in the past. I was touched again by the love of the people of San Francisco and their dedication to end the war. God knows I love this city. It’s not the best place to raise kids so I don’t plan to live here as much as I otherwise would. But I can really relate to the spirit of San Francisco.

I was born and raised in Moscow. I’ve lived in many different cities since then. I loved many of them, but San Francisco is more intimately close to me, even though there is so much that needs to be healed and changed here. Having been deeply immersed in the hippie culture of the Grateful Dead tour and other jam bands, and having allowed it to deeply heal and change my life, I can say that I feel one with the hippie spirit that is still alive in this city even if disguised and hidden. The city streets reflect our internal moods. I see a lot of pain here. Yet behind the sadness and the vulnerability of this city there is so much love. There are so many loving and giving people here. Their smiles, their affectionate words, the love light in their eyes are so hope giving, so magical. We are only human, no more and certainly no less. It’s so inspiring to see people come back to these peace marches. We haven’t given up. So many people went back to apathy and denial. But not everybody. There are still a lot of people who are determined to manifest the dream. The crowd is so mixed, different races and nationalities, marching together and singing for peace. This is my dream come true. I used to dream this beautiful colorful crowd singing, chanting, expressing anger and sadness, demanding peace on earth. This is the beginning of the world that I’ve dreamed of creating.

My favorite part of the march was a huge flag made of different flags that was carried horizontally by, I believe, “Latinos contra la guerra” (Latinos against the war). Happy music was playing and children were happily running and jumping under that big world flag. More and more kids joined the fun as the march progressed.

I don’t know if this was originally intended or was it spontaneous? But what a powerful statement, our children together under that big flag representing unity and happy coexistence of all nations. The big flag was raised and lowered every so often making the kids under it scream in ecstasy. Carrying the front of the flag was a Latino man with a warm smile and a T-shirt that read:”Nadie es illegal” (“No one is illegal”) I am so proud of San Francisco’s pro-immigrant-rights stand. Our city is really in touch with what it means to be human. San Franciscan peace movement is not divided on the very important issues of immigration, gay rights, women’s rights.

We are strongly pro-human. Human spirit is deeper and bigger than nationality, gender, and sexual orientation. If you are in touch with the human spirit you will not get stuck in the shallowness and ego-centeredness of discrimination. Discrimination is a blatant sign of soullessness, of being out of touch with your own soul and the souls of others. I love San Francisco for its soul.

And there was also something that deeply upset me, as always, at so many of these peace rallies. I have a lot of respect for Richard Becker, the main organizer of ANSWER. He always has something sincere and real to say. This man definitely knows compassion. His voice and his words always touch my heart. But I have to say that I don’t always care for his choice of speakers. Some of them are great, and others make me sick. I am sure many people will get mad at me for saying this, but it makes me sick when a mother of a soldier gets on that stage and starts playing victim and blaming Bush for her son’s death. How would you people feel if a Nazi mother got on stage and started playing victim? Well, what’s the difference between the Nazis and the US Military? I will tell you one big difference. The Nazi soldiers were drafted, many against their will. The US soldiers enlisted voluntarily. They sold their souls for dollars, for college degrees (supposedly), for comfortable sofas in front of TVs, for status quo. Or is it that their rage against the world was so blinding that they believed pathetic transparent lies told by Bush? What kind of values would you have to be raised with to believe that it is right to carpet bomb people because of one bad guy who is supposedly hiding there? Obviously, American lives are by far more important than any other lives. Is this not fascism? So here is this mother who sent her son to kill people overseas. Don’t tell me that she didn’t know he had a gun on him when he went. She though he would go to war, murder thousands of people, come back covered in medals from head to toe and she wouldn’t even have to pay his college tuition. She had it all planned out. If her son returned unharmed she would be proud of him and continue voting for Bush, I bet. But as it turns out when you kill people they don’t like it. And sometimes they kill you. What a surprise! I suppose Bush was supposed to explain to her that in a war people don’t just kill but can also get killed.

Look, I have compassion for the soldiers too. I understand that anyone can make a mistake. But I only respect the soldiers who take responsibility for their mistakes and who come back and become peace activists. I have no respect for soldiers who murder innocent people and expect everybody to respect them and feel sorry for them because they didn’t get away with murder.

As for military mothers, I have some questions. If your son joined the gangs and murdered people in your town in order to pay his college tuition would you be proud of him? What if he joined the biggest gang in the world called the US military and murdered a lot more people but overseas, then what? Oh, well, then the picture is totally different. He is a hero and you are a victim, right?

What kind of abuse did you put your son through that he thinks nothing of picking up a loaded gun and aiming it at a human being he had never met before? If he did this in your town his behavior would be called sociopathic. He would be on the most wanted list. But he put on a military uniform first and then murdered a bunch of people. Oh, yeah, this is called “patriotism”. I was raised in communist Russia. The concept of patriotism was so exploited there, it was to the point that people felt like puking whenever they heard that word on TV or radio. I learned very early that “patriotism” equals “fascism”.

What is “patriotism”, really? Does it not imply separation from the rest of humanity? Does it not imply division based on nationality? Does it not imply putting your nation above other nations? Then how is it different from fascism? The only difference between Nazi German army and the US army is that the US army hasn’t been officially exposed yet. Hitler is dead and his regime has fallen. Bush (or should I say Cheney?) is still alive and the regime hasn’t fallen yet. But believe me, as soon as Bush regime falls (and it will happen) his deeds will be in the history books right next to Hitler’s deeds and his army will be right next to the Nazi army. Germany learned from its mistakes. German people took responsibility and because of that were able to change and transform into a much more peaceful nation. They are still paying life long pensions to Jews who even remotely suffered from the holocaust. And that is great, such level of responsibility.

America needs to find its heart and its true power. True power comes from the heart, it comes from love. America needs to stop lying to itself and playing victim. Many Americans have already transitioned to that place of power that comes from the heart. But it will take a nationwide awakening for America to be able to live at peace with itself and with the rest of the world.

A military uniform is not an excuse for murder. In this episode I discuss the psychological origins of war. War is a bigger version of street violence, street violence is a bigger version of family violence. All trauma begins in childhood. Psychopathic behavior begins in the family.

THE TRUTH AND LIES OF 911

2007-09-11T14:52:00.000-07:00

This is a film by Mike Rupprt who can be considered the pioneer of the 911 truth movement in the US. This film focuses on the CIA and Wall Street as well as many other political aspects of the 911 attacks. Excellent informaiton coming from Mike who used to be a narcotics investigator in LA until he found out the the CIA was trading drugs and weapons. The CIA tried to recruit him to cover up their activities. Mike said no. He was fired, then shot at at least twice, his life was threatened many times since then. Mike became a whistle blower, an investigator and a media activist. Some time last year (forgive me for not knowing the exact date) Mike's office was broken into, and all his computers were smashed. Obviously, some people are unhappy about his activism.

I know Mike personally and consider him a very dear friend. He has a great big heart, that's what I love about him the most, and that's what I believe, gives him courage to do what he does.

LOOSE CHANGE 911 documentary

2007-09-07T10:42:00.000-07:00

This is my favorite 911 truth documentary. I loved it so much when I first saw it that I felt I had to do more than just play it on Public Access channel in San Francisco and Berkeley. I organized a screening of Loose Change 2nd Edition at the Grand Lake Theater in Oakland. The film was shown on May 2nd, 2006 to about 500 people. It was a great success. The filmmakers, Dylan Avery, Korey Rowe and Jason Burmas came out to do an open forum after the film. You can watch it here:

Read the USA Today article about Loose Change that came out a few days before the Oakland screening. This article was taking up most of page 3 of the USA Today issue. It came out on the day that "Flight 93" (a government propaganda film) came out in theaters. I see this as a miracle and a major blow to the Bush administration by the mainstream media. "Flight 93" was barely mentioned at all, it was mentioned in the back in the "new movies" setion and occupied a minimal amount of space. The journalist who wrote the article about LC told me when he was interviewing me that his daughter had given him Loose Change to watch. He wasn't sure if the article would get published. I told him I could send him 2 other pro-911-truth articles that had been published in the San Francisco Chronicle:

"An Inside Job?"

"Sept. 11 left us with a host of questions"

He said it would help. So I did. I am so glad it got published!

IS CHENEY ABOUT TO BLOW UP THE BAY BRIDGE?

2007-09-03T14:40:00.000-07:00

Having been a 911 truth activist for 5 years, I have serious suspicions about
the Bay Bridge being closed for entire 4 days.

There has been a lot of threats of terrorist attacks coming form the government.
Looks like they are preparing the public. Or else it could be their usual scare
tactics.

On the other hand, Bush’s term is coming to an end. The public is pushing to ban
voting machines. The power of the Bush administration is deteriorating with
major figures resigning, almost daily scandals on the news and constant threat
of impeachment. Their only weapon is fear, it’s their last hope. I can see them
really desperately needing a terrorist attack in the near future. 911 did them a
great deal of good. 911 was, of course, the work of the Bush administration, the
Pentagon, and others connected tightly to the Bush administration. Osama had no
authority to put the US Airforce on stand down. He would have never been able to
rig the World Trade Center with explosives. If you still have doubts about 911
please watch Loose Change at www.loosechange911.com

About 2 weeks before Sept. 11, 2001 electricity was shut down at the World
Trade
Center. That allowed “the terrorists” to bring in explosives past the security
gates. Guess who was in charge of security at the World Trade Center at that
time? Marvin Bush, yes, Bush’s brother. He also replaced the entire security
personnel at the WTC a few weeks prior to 911.

Getting back to the Bay Bridge, it being shut down for 4 entire days sounds
suspicious. They are also demolishing a section of the bridge, so that gives
them a green light to bring in a demolition crew. According to their official
website they are doing seismic safety work which can, as far as I understand,
involve drilling holes in the structure to test it for safety. Also, the new
bridge being close to finished would be a convenient time to blow up the old
one. Don’t quote me on this, but I have also heard that the old Bay Bridge is
not earthquake stable, so if that is true, then it sounds like the World Trade
Center that needed to go because of all the asbestos that it was filled with.
The WTC was an environmental disaster because of the asbestos that it was filled
with. Cleaning it up would have cost an enormous amount of money that no one was
willing to pay. In other words, it sounds like the Bay Bridge is a good
candidate for a “terrorist attack” just like the WTC was.

Another thing that raises suspicion is the collapse of highway 880 in Oakland
this past April and the collapse of the Minneapolis bridge. As far as I am
concerned 880 was an inside job. Gas doesn’t melt steel otherwise your engine in
your car would have long since melted. Because of 911 it became a well known
fact that steel melts at a much higher temperature than gas burns. The story that I read online about the collapse is full of inconsistencies.

Here is the full story:

http://sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2007/04/29/BAGVOPHQU46.DTL

Here is an exerpt:

“Jennifer Summers, 36, was driving from her costume design job in San Francisco
home to the Oakland hills just before 4 a.m. when she saw black smoke and
realized the freeway was on fire. She quickly pulled off and looped around so
she could see what was going on. When she got out of her car, flames were shooting into the sky over multiple layers of freeway and she could hear loud crackling and explosions.”

Notice the “loud crackling” and “explosions”. Those are typical sounds of
controlled demolition.

The other witness is “Isaac Rodriguez, a 53-year-old sanitation supervisor”. He
says: “It looked like a big slab of plastic because it was melted. It's made of
steel and concrete and it was bent at both angles of the pillar. It really
looked fake.” I am sure that last statement is open for interpretation, but I
pay attention to such statements. He continues: “ No sign of the truck remains
at the scene. One Caltrans worker there early this morning held up his thumb and
forefinger an inch apart to describe how big the tanker is now.” I haven’t heard
of tankers melting down to the ground before.

The same articles later says this: “Witnesses said at the time that the tanker,
which was changing lanes when it skidded out of control, created a 100-foot-tall
fireball after it crashed on the connector between westbound I-80 and eastbound
I-580, which is immediately northeast of the scene of today's crash.”

How come the names of the witnesses are not revealed? They go into lengthy descriptions about the other 2 witnesses who just saw the fire, yet the most important witnesses that supposedly witnessed the actual accident are not revealed at all.

Another strange thing is the driver’s behavior. According to the article, he
talked to Rodriguez and then supposedly took off walking down the highway
looking for a ride to the hospital. This is at 4 AM. “Rodriguez said he
regretted not thinking to send a vehicle up to get the injured man. He and a
coworker stood for some 40 minutes watching the freeway burn.” What about all
the emergency vehicles that were there?

Check out this other article about the same incident:

In this article Rodriguez, the witness from the sewage plant, says: ”The driver
escaped just before the overhead ramp collapsed.” Later in the article:
“Firefighters soon saw that the upper ramp was buckling, Price said, and by 4:02
-- seven minutes after they arrived -- it had collapsed.” So, if this is true
then the fire trucks were already there 7 minutes or so before the driver came
out of the fire. In this case why didn’t they take care of the driver?

Another fact worth mentioning is that 880 had been briefly closed due to a very
strange accident shortly before the tanker incident.

My partner David saw a brand new looking tanker parked illegally at a highway
split off facing the accident about 36 hours prior to the accident. The tanker
was turned to the side pointing in the direction of the accident. The spot where
it was parked is at a split off triangular dirt area where small cars park
illegally sometimes but never big trucks. We heard about the accident and looked
at the map of where it was parked. It was the closest parking spot to the
accident site. I know it doesn’t make too much sense why they would park it
there. But there are a lot of highway loops and split offs in that immediate
area. It’s so easy to get lost and then end up heading the wrong way on the
wrong highway without a good way to come back. I can see them parking the
vehicle in a convenient spot in advance to avoid confusion.

I went to the scene a few days later to take pictures. One of the supervisors
told me that was the most bizarre collapse he had ever seen. It looked like it
was cut off with a saw on both sides. I was there a few days after the incident.
I was told by the clean up crew that the only thing that was changed was the
little metal plates added to brace the bridge, everything else was exactly the
same. Take a look at the pictures. To me the color of the break up surface looks
odd. I would expect it to be black if it was indeed burned by a gas fire. On the
other hand, if explosives had been used I can see there being small traces of
much hotter fire that would be more light in color. I am not an expert but I did
major in science in college. Science was my big passion for many years. I
encourage those of you who have more expertise to take a look at the photos.

Steel can be melted under pressure (that’s where explosives come in) or in a
furnace where heat has nowhere to escape. The highway is out in the open, so
this cannot possibly be compared to a furnace. The articles mention orange
flames, which are known to be the coldest. The higher the temperature is the
more white the flame becomes. Watch a welder work. The flames are white and
blue, not orange.

As soon as 880 collapsed the mainstream media started screaming about steel
melting from fossil fuel fires and comparing it to 911. I knew they were going
to say that. That seemed to be the whole purpose of this incident, to “prove”
that the WTC really did collapse from the jet fuel fire. The 911 truth movement
used the impossibility of such a phenomenon as a proof of government complicity
and cover up. So this was possibly meant to disprove this point.

And then, the Minneapolis bridge collapse. I haven’t had a chance to take s good
look at it (I have 3 little kids, not much time for conspiracies), but I would
pay attention to it happening shortly after the 880 collapse. I can see these
events being a rehearsal to test out a bridge demolition by “terrorists.” I just
talked to Eric Hufschmid and he said that the Minneapolis bridge collapse looks
a lot like the 880 collapse in Oakland, very suspicious. Watch his 911
documentary here:

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=4618227146744255189

Also realize that both the mayor of San Francisco (Gavin Newsom) and the state
government (the legendary Schwarznegger) are both unelected puppets installed by
Bush and Co. Oakland police department has ties to federal government also.
Weren’t they involved in Cointelpro? Forgive me for not giving more accurate
info on this. I see and read a lot of stuff, and don’t always remember the
sources. I’ve seen Oakland police do a terrorist exercise in Oakland with staged
public unrest and freaky violent police behavior that was also staged. The
public was unaware of the fact that it was staged. I saw it in Alex Jones’s
films (www.infowars.com).

So, the Bay Bridge is between a rock and a hard place. It would be very easy to
imagine an investigation being made impossible if the bridge did get blown up by
so called “terrorists.”

Having said all this I would like to hope that I am wrong, that it is indeed a
legitimate bridge repair work. But if the bridge does get blown up in the near
future don’t buy the “terrorist” story! Investigate, document, take pictures,
samples of soil, water, anything and don’t let them institute marshal law or
sign Patriot Act 3!

If you plan on driving across the bridge tomorrow or any time soon, please,
bring a camera, still camera, video camera, film the top of the bridge while
driving. You can take it home and play it frame by frame. If you get slowed down
in traffic look up at the ceiling, take pictures, examine later. Look for boxes
with explosives, look for anything suspicious. Email me any suspicious evidence:
uncensored911@yahoo.com Post articles on Indymedia. The more we publicize it the
less chance that they will have the nerve to do it.

You might be able to find some demolition videos made by demolition companies on
Youtube or Google video to get an idea of different kinds of devices that might
be used.

So, let’s hope that the 4-day closing of the bridge was really about repairs and
nothing else. And if per chance there was a terrorist action planned by our
government then let’s prevent it from happening before it’s too late.

BLOW THE WHISTLE ON THE 911 COMMISSION!

These are my protests against the 911 commission who did nothing but cover up the truth behind 911. They came to the Bay Area a few times and we just had to greet them accordingly. I've heard that one of the commission members was supposed to have an appearance at some university near by but cancelled it shortly after my protests. They never came to the Bay Area again either. Looks like we achieved our goals at least partially.

The other whistle blower is Carol Brouillet who is the founder of the 911 Truth Alliance and one of the main organizers for 911 truth in the Bay Area. She is the first 911 truth activist I had ever met. She was my inspiration for many years. Carol is still actively working to expose the truth behind 911. Visit her here. She also has a radio show. You can learn more on her website.

This video has been and still remains heavily censored by Google. When it was first uploaded to Google about a year ago it was getting 1000 views and 100 downloads per day. After about a month Google took it off (on the same day they took off Loose Change). They claimed that I had no rights to the footage. I sent them the required proof that I had rights. They still wouldn't put it on. Then I threatened them with a law suit. The video was back up the next day. But ever since then they keep fucking with the numbers of views that it's getting. I've watched my numbers go down as time progressed. Not just on this video but on all the videos that are in my account. Looks like they dont't like me. I wonder why...he-he-he!!! Besides, they erased the 30,000 views that it originally got and brought it down to zero. Looks like they got scared that it was climbing up so fast.

Leuren Moret is a whistle blower from the Livermore Lab. In her presentations she exposes shocking and highly suppressed facts about our government poisoning us with radiation right at this very moment. Leuren documents every statement she makes with research documents, many of which use actual government data to draw their conclusions. Did you know that diabetes, autism and other forms of mental illness are caused by exposure to radiation? From nuclear testing we have switched to nuclear power plants that are causing increasingly high rates of cancer, birth defects and literally an epidemic of diabetes. Depleted Uranium has not only turned Iraq and Afganistan into uninhabitable nuclear holocaust for millions of years, but it is also blowing over the rest of the planet causing Americans, Europeans and others to die from radiation diseases. This is something your government doesn’t want you to know. Worse yet, there is a global conspiracy on this issue because other governments are also involved in major nuclear programs, and they don’t want their citizens to know the real reasons why their children are being born with severe anomalies and why the diabetes rates are soaring worldwide. Filmed and produced by Gypsy Taub.

Ernest Sternglass has dedicated his life to eliminating the destruction of humanity by nuclear weapons. He convinced JFKennedy and the Senate to stop atmpspheric bomb testing which lead to the signing of the Test Ban Treaty. To this day atmospheric testing is banned worldwide. On his way to testify in front of the Japanese Parliament Earnest stopped at his friend's (Leuren Moret's) house in Berkeley. That's where I filmed this presentation.
