Open Your Eyes News - Edition 13

More important things have been happening in the world than Hillary v Obama (they represent the same agenda as McCain so it's hardly a choice). Many very significant events went virtually unreported. This is an attempt to redress the balance. This is no one sided, left or right rant. These aren't links to radical "conspiracy websites". This is all mainstream news.

Even if you only spend 15 minutes this week & just click through to the headlines, you will get a much broader view of what is really happening in this world of ours.


The World Food Crisis

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/business/7424375.stm
UN warns about higher food costs
And yet Governments around the world are making it mandatory to have a proportion of all petrol coming from bio-fuels so to "combat global warming" (which they don't) and all the while tens of millions around the world get hungrier and hungrier

http://www.theaustralian.news.com.au/story/0,25197,23786266-11949,00.html
Push for ethanol hits grain supplies.
Bio-fuel production at the expense of wheat in Australia one of the main wheat producers in the world, thus further pushing up food prices. And guess what, not only is the bio-fuel sector subsidised by the Government (so "to combat global warming, blah, blah, blah"), but also they are the biggest corporate donor to the ruling party funds in the last year.

http://business.timesonline.co.uk/tol/business/industry_sectors/consumer_goods/article4029500.ece
Food prices to stay high for a decade.
The question is how many will have to die until we stop growing bio-fuels

Additive-free diet vital in reducing ADHD, says specialist.
Before you start pumping your kids full of drugs so to combat ADHD, perhaps you should first remove the all the food in their diet that contains additives. Stop & think. Why are so many more kids these days getting ADHD? YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT.


Education:

http://www.theaustralian.news.com.au/story/0,25197,23766288-12332,00.html
Melbourne university drops charges against Paul Mees.
This is what can happen when a society "closes" and academics get punished for speaking out against the Government or other vested interests. And yet this wasn't some 3rd world banana republic, this is Australia. It doesn't take many high profile cases like this, or threats of funding withdrawals (see the Global Warming "debate") and all of a sudden resistance peters out.


Environment:

http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/2008/may/26/climatechange.greenpolitics
Billions wasted on UN climate programme.
That's because it is a giant scam anyway. Where are the billions being spent on preventing real environmental destruction like the deforestation, the plastics in the oceans, the mercury in our rivers and the collapse in bee populations on the back of GM crop introductions?

http://edition.cnn.com/2008/US/05/26/gas.driving/index.html
As gas goes up, driving goes down.
One positive side of the rise in the cost of petrol. Don't get me wrong, I like the personal freedom that cars bring, however perhaps this will be the tipping point that will "encourage" car manufacturers to dust off the plans for the non-polluting (and I'm not talking CO2 here, I'm talking about all the other noxious stuff) Hydrogen powered and Electric cars that they've kept on the shelf for decades.

http://worldnetdaily.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=64734
31,000 scientists reject 'global warming' agenda.
US academics who are prepared to stand up against the McCarthyism that is the man made global warming "debate". Irrespective of who is right or who is wrong as soon as you are told "the debate is now closed" as the (politically motivated) UN commission did last year you have to start questioning.

Genetically Engineered Sugar to Hit U.S. in 2008
Enough said really.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/politics/7424158.stm
Brown expands nuclear ambitions
Problem, reaction, solution at work. Would any politician be able to sell the concept of nuclear power being a great idea these days if it wasn't for "global warming"? Ask yourself who is making the money here? Are they doing this for altruistic reasons?

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1021983/Every-adult-Britain%20-forced-carry-carbon-ration-cards-say-MPs.html
Every adult in Britain should be forced to carry 'carbon ration cards', say MPs
Problem, reaction, solution at work part 2. And you know the best part of this. The cards with be chipped so that your every movement will be tracked. I wonder if you will get charged for the hot air balloons worth of CO2 you emit each year by breathing? WAKE UP PEOPLE!


Politics & Democracy:

Government put tax over health on smoking: records
For those of you who don't believe that Governments would lie to you, or do what is in their own or corporate best interests. It has happened many, many times before throughout history. Do you really think that they wouldn't do something like that now?

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1021935/Tony-Blair-barracked-Iraq-students-Yale.html
Tony Blair is barracked over Iraq by students at Yale University
Poor Tony. What a shame. Thank goodness he's taken up a religion that absolves him of all his many, many sins.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/7417896.stm
South America nations found union This is part of the plan for a centrally-controlled American Union, a mirror of the European Union, that will span the whole of the Americas. This South American Union is designed to eventually fuse with the North American Union (NAFTA) that is also a long way down the road to being introduced, along with its currency the Amero (see Finance & Economics).

http://www.knowledgedrivenrevolution.com/Articles/200805/20080526_UNESCO_2_Purpose.htm
The Task of Unifying the World Mind UNESCO Its Purpose and Its Philosophy Part 2
UNESCO's mission is to prepare the way for one world Government. An interesting thesis, and as usual if you don't trust the source, reference the paper entitled UNESCO Its Purpose and Its Philosophy (1946) yourself. An interesting side note being that Sir Julian Huxley was the brother of Aldous Huxley the author of "A brave New World" - mealtime conversation at the Huxley house must have been interesting.

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/politics/2038813/European-Parliament-to-ban-Eurosceptic-groups.html
European Parliament to ban Eurosceptic groups
Democracy in action European style. If there is someone who is opposed to the grand plan ostracize them, squeeze them and best of all cut their supply to all that lovely EU money. They'll come around quick enough. That goes for MEP's just as much as the Irish.

http://www.radioaustralia.net.au/news/stories/200805/s2260053.htm?tab=australia
Australian police investigate cabinet leak
Yet another case of the police in Australia investigating public servants for leaks. This form of intimidation will close down information and dissent, just as is beginning to happen in the higher education sector (see Education). READ "THE TEN STEPS TO A CLOSED SOCIETY" below.

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/2050848/Tony-Blair-on-mission-to-%27unite-religions%27.html
Tony Blair on mission to unite religions
You couldn't make it up could you? A mass murderer setting up a "faith foundation". If you read the full speech he references its mission is "globalisation" and "one world government" on a number of occasions. When it happens, don't say you were never told.


Technology:

Taser studies flawed, epidemiologist says
Independent expert says Tasers are very bad news, that studies have been flawed, but that "the genie is now out of the bottle"

http://blog.wired.com/defense/2008/05/metal-storm-iro.html
Robot + Super Gun = 'Crowd Control'
And I thought last weeks Taser Riot Shield was bad news for the future of peaceful protest. The "ultimate in crowd control" according to its makers. RoboCop would be very envious of this Cop's firepower.

Skynet military launch postponed
Does anyone else not see the dark irony of calling technology that will control un-manned killing machines "Skynet" (if not watch the Terminator movies)


Civil Liberties:

On 'human rights,' the Bard has it right
Freedom of speech disappears in Canada step by step too.

Peacekeepers 'abusing children'
There is something seriously wrong with human "civilisation" when this kind of stuff happens

http://afp.google.com/article/ALeqM5jT5Eam6BcZ9nojsJyESfI0CF-jHA
Britain to scrap all cluster bombs: PM
A move in the right direction. You have to wonder how much sooner it would have come had Princess Diana kept up her anti-land mine campaign before she so conveniently died? Unfortunately the worlds top 3 exporters of cluster bombs (USA, Russia & France) aren’t going to sign so they will still be killing and maiming the innocent for many years to come yet. (SEE PICTURE OF THE WEEK BELOW)

Finance & Economics:

http://www.meed.com/qatar1/news/2008/05/us_gives_approval_for_gcc_to_drop_dollar_pegs_merrill_lynch.html
US gives approval for GCC to drop dollar pegs, Merrill Lynch
Time to take your investments out of the US dollar. This will lead to a further weakening of the greenback, and may contribute to a large scale abandonment of it for FX reserves. All part of the agenda that will lead to the NAFTA Amero currency coming into being. Interestingly enough the Kuwait Investment Authority invested $6.6 billion into Merrill Lynch a few weeks ago, so Merrill Lynch's information is very much from the inside.


The War on Terror:

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/7424782.stm
Iraq 'stepping back from abyss'
Bearing in mind this country is sitting on the biggest oil reserves in the world (which is pretty valuable the way things currently are), do you think they'd be $64 billion in debt (YES $64 billion, as opposed to the $1.2 billion given to aid agencies this week to combat the World Food Crisis) if we hadn't bombed the bejesus out of them, charged them for the privilege and then stolen their oil?

http://www.reuters.com/article/topNews/idUSN2730566220080528?feedType=RSS&feedName=topNews
No new evidence of al Qaeda threat despite report: U.S
If there is no threat you could always invent one...wait a second that's what the CIA did in the 80's when they coined the name "Al Qaeda" and then started funding some Islamic radicals fight against the Russians.

http://www.reuters.com/article/topNews/idUSN2836293020080528?feedType=RSS&feedName=topNews
Ex-spokesman says Bush used propaganda on Iraq
Bush (& Blair) wasn't "open and forthright" over Iraq? Really! You don't say?

http://www.reuters.com/article/topNews/idUSN2736842620080527?feedType=RSS&feedName=topNews
Post-traumatic stress soars in U.S. troops
More of the true cost of the project to steal Iraq’s oil (now the biggest reserves in the World – see last weeks edition)


The Next War:

http://www.atimes.com/atimes/Middle_East/JE28Ak01.html
Bush 'plans Iran air strike by August'
The Asia Times is reporting that it has been briefed that bombing of Iran will commence in August....low & behold at the same time as the whole world is distracted by the Olympics just as we have been predicting since edition number 1

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/7420737.stm
Iran 'withholds nuclear details'
It’s like déjà vu this isn’t it? Remember Iraq in 2002? Are you ready for another war? What will you do to try to stop it?

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/7420573.stm
Israel 'has 150 nuclear weapons'
How come the UN doesn’t demand Israel (or for that matter UK, US, Russia, China, India, Pakistan or France) hand over the secrets of they weapons of mass destruction? Other than they already have them and they don't have any oil to steal obviously.


Quotation of the week:

"The climate grew rapidly warmer around ten thousand years ago (8000BC). The postglacial climate was drier than today, and it was not until the mid-sixth millennium (around 5500BC) that conditions began to grow markedly wetter....Today it is slightly drier."

Dr Francis Pryor, Britain BC - showing that rapid climate change isn't exactly something that has never happened before
