A Soft Promise of Light Breaks Through
by Soren Dreier
Posted January 21, 2019
As we each travel the road toward enlightenment, which for many also means breaking free of the Matrix, we often find ourselves in the middle of a pendulum swing between empowerment and disempowerment. We also find our nervous systems becoming more and more fragile and in need of rest from the turmoil of this world.
We try to strengthen our connection to the vertical, the Heavens, the God force, the Uni or whatever we each label it. What we need to focus on is our spiritual nervous system that has to deal with all of this Mundane ‘noise’ in order to let us enter a room of tranquility and bliss. Seems impossible, but it is within reach, since it is for each of us a question of finding that room amidst the great war of collective suffering and stress. More…
The Facts:
The main stream media which is 90% owned by 6 corporations does not serve us by informing us, rather it instills fear and diverts our attention from what is important.
Reflect On:
How you can break the stranglehold the system has on your mind by simply allowing yourself quiet time to reflect and tune out negative energy.

How the Industrialization of Animals Affects Human Life

Ever heard of a CAFO? It’s short for Concentrated Animal Feeding Operation, which is basically a hybrid of a factory and a farm where most of this country’s livestock is destined to spend some time on their eventual journey to your plate. Even though science has finally jumped on the common sense bandwagon by signing a declaration acknowledging every mammal’s inherent conscious awareness, the treatment of livestock in CAFOs is anything but humane. Currently in the industrialized livestock agriculture sector, even the most progressive welfare policies lag behind, are ignorant of, or arbitrarily disregard the science on sentience and cognition that many people believe to be common sense.
At the root of every CAFO is a concept known as industrialization, a process of creating systems geared towards production efficiency. A consequence, however, of this strict focus on maximum productivity, aka $$$, is that livestock is transformed from a being respected and revered for its contribution to human life to nothing more than a line item on an income statement. Profits, losses, and economics replace values, animal husbandry, and ethics. More…

Who Was Secretly Behind America’s Invading and Occupying Syria?
by Eric Zuesse
Posted January 20, 2019
The invasion and occupation of Syria by tens of thousands of jihadists who were recruited from around the world to overthrow Syria’s President Bashar al-Assad, was financed mainly by US taxpayers and by the world’s wealthiest family, the Sauds, who own Saudi Arabia and the world’s largest oil company, Aramco. America’s international oil companies and major think tanks and ‘charitable’ foundations were also supportive and providing propaganda for the operation, but the main financing for it came from America’s taxpayers, and from the Saud family and from the Government that they own.
The US preferred to be supplying the jihadists weapons that weren’t from US manufacturers, in order to impede any tracing back to the United States the arming of the movement to oust and replace Syria’s secular, committedly non-sectarian, Government. The Sauds — who are just as committedly sectarian, and are even supporters of the extreme fundamentalist Wahhabist sect of Sunni Islam — likewise tried to cover their tracks in this operation, but their tracks were financial. The Sauds have been especially skillful at covering their tracks. More…
The Facts:
The US taxpayers and the family of Saud were the largest funders of jihadists fighting against the Assad government in Syria
Reflect On:
How the US government was complicit in the creation of funding of ISIS while using propaganda to instill fear and loathing of ISIS to justify US military presence in Syria.

The Mock Democracy
by Rainer Mausfeld
Posted January 19, 2019
The citizens are disenfranchised and conditioned to be politically apathetic consumers. In recent decades, democracy has been replaced by the illusion of democracy. New forms of organization of power and psychological methods for manipulation of our consciousness protect the powerful against the risks of democratic empowerment and strengthen their position.
Democracy today really means an elected oligarchy of economic and political elites, in which central areas of society, especially the economy, are fundamentally removed from any democratic control and accountability; at the same time, large parts of the social organization of our own life lie outside the democratic sphere. And freedom today means above all the freedom of the economically powerful. More…
The Facts:
Our systems today are totally controlled by an aristocracy who fund political campaigns.
Reflect On:
What will be the consequences of this total control as government policies continue to favor the elites and erode the rights of those who actually work for a living and the wealth gap continues to grow?

A Message Of Indigenous Resistance And Inspiration From The Amazon
By Nemonte Nenquimo
Posted January 18, 2019
I am Nemonte Nenquimo. My name means Many Stars. My people are the Waorani and our forest is our home. I am a Waorani woman and a mother.
Our ancestors defended our way of life for generations with spears. But the threats we face now cannot be confronted with spears alone.
Two moons from now, the government plans to auction our territory to the oil companies. If we do not stop them, the company will get a foothold in our lands. They will bring money, sickness and contamination. They will try to divide our families and change our way of thinking. More…
The Facts:
Indigenous ancestral lands and traditional values and lifestyles are being threatened by big corporations interested only in profits.
Reflect On:
As consumers and customers of these corporations, what tools are at our disposal to influence their policies? Should we patronizing them?

Grassroots Networks Mobilize From Coast to Coast to Promote Digital Rights
By Shahid Buttar
Posted January 17, 2019
The digital rights movement showed its strength this year by projecting influence in jurisdictions across the United States. Community organizations on both coasts, as well as the Midwest and the South, took action, promoting issues from net neutrality and civilian oversight of local police surveillance to the right to repair and digital security.
Among the 84 groups in the Electronic Frontier Alliance, grassroots community organizations in many cities demonstrably improved public policy, while their allies elsewhere built awareness online, as well as in their local communities. More…

Israel: Ethnic Cleansing, Land Theft, Apartheid and Jim Crow
By Kevin Zeese and Margaret Flowers
Posted January 16, 2019
In recent weeks, racism against Palestinian people and the expansion of apartheid-Jim Crow policies have escalated. The Israeli lobby and its supporters attacked freedom of speech in the United States, showing how far they will go to prevent the US public from being aware of their behavior.
If more people in the US become aware of the truth about Israel’s genocidal policies, the economic lifeline and political protection of the United States will disappear. Israel could be forced to make significant changes that recognize the human rights and self-determination of Palestinians. More…
