Don`t Cry For Me, Karzai

With Karzai not playing nice anymore and following the same pattern all these setup leaders did, he probably won't last much longer.

(COLORADO SPRINGS) - Who is Hamid Karzai? What offer is he waiting for from the US? Is this to be another Noriega situation?

To some, Hamid Karzai has been a key person of interest for a long time now. To others, he just sort of came out of nowhere, and was made leader of a country undergoing a huge globalized makeover. It seems this started for Karzai back in the 80s while part of the Mujahidin that were fighting the soviets during that war in Afghanistan. Karzai was working with the CIA as a contact/contractor, and is still on the payroll today.

Air Glow Layer and Sprites

"Air glow is due to the short wavelengths, the ultraviolet wavelengths that cause sunburn if you don’t use sun block, or X-rays..."
- Dr. Kerri Cahoy, M.I.T.

(SAN DIEGO) - On Nov. 20, 2013 KPBS broadcast a “Nova” program titled, “At the Edge of Space”. It included data and video of lightning, sprites, and explored the air glow layer that is a part of the ionosphere, which is a vast sea of electrically charged particles, or ions.

The program explains that these particles with help from the Sun, create this glow, and the most important thing about the airglow may not be why it glows but where it’s located. It’s the lowest part of the ionosphere, the uppermost region of the atmosphere.

Why Don`t We Try to Understand and End Human Violence?

Human beings will end violence or Violence will end human beings.

(TASMANIA, Aust.) - The pre-eminent problem confronting humankind is human violence. It is our own violence, in its various guises, including the ongoing possibility of nuclear war and the ongoing devastation of the natural environment, that threaten to consign us to the fossil record within decades, if not sooner.

Egypt Thwarts `the New Middle East` Conspiracy

On June 30^th Egyptians once again, mesmerized the world with a real revolution and with the help of a patriotic military managed to not only do away with the rule of the terrorist MB group but to put the whole new made-in-US world order/conspiracy to a halt.

(ALEXANDRIA, Egypt) - A couple of years ago and while the millions of Egyptians were embarking on the world’s biggest occupy-your-square movement, President Obama alluded to what was happening in Tahrir Square, the hub of the Egyptian uprising, and said “We are witnessing history unfold in Egypt” … and as much as he was right then, he is now way on the wrong side of history and deadly dishonest, as if honesty had to do with politics, about what is still unfolding in Egypt.

Even more, Obama’s administration is foolishly losing Egypt, a pivotal Middle-Eastern state that has been a close ally to the US for over 40 years now...
