[Judicial Watch Exposes Terrorism at the Border]

Urgent Update on Terror Border Threat (Weekly Update)
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3214002/posts
Judicial Watch | Tom Fitton

There are times when all of us hate to say, “I told you so.” And the latest news from Judicial Watch on the apprehension of ISIS terrorists on the U.S.-Mexico border is certainly one of them. In late August, you may recall, JW broke the story that Islamic terrorist organizations are operating in the Mexican border city of Ciudad Juarez where they plan to stage attacks against the U.S. In response to this threat, agents in the departments of Homeland Security, Justice and Defense had all been placed on alert... [snip]

[For those who don’t know, Tom Fitton doesn’t mess around. He’s head of a legal group that says nothing unless it’s in the terms of something legally compelling. A decade ago he ‘axed’ Larry Klayman who was more quick ‘on the draw’ reg. accusations. He had been part of Paul Weyrich’s NET broadcast back in the late ‘90s, and his service was sterling from Day 1.]

NEGLECTED NEWS:

Last week, China’s economy became the world’s largest.

After World War 1 and WWII, the mighty USA’s economy was equal to the rest of the world’s economy combined. We were not simply the highest, no one was even close. This is the first time we lost that crown since we seized it over 100 years ago, and what is the Ruling Class doing? Are they even mentioning this? Do they even care?

The World Economy Is In Trouble
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3214004/posts

“Britain’s economy, where output was up 3.2% in the year to June, is growing faster than any other big rich country’s. Central bankers are counting the days until they can raise interest rates. Virtually everywhere else, however, the news is grim and getting grimmer. The euro zone, the world’s second-biggest economic area, seems to be falling from a feeble recovery back into outright recession...”

[If I’m not mistaken, the ebola jolt was the last straw that triggered the current EU crash.]

Dems want White House shakeup (Hussein “should take a flamethrower...”)
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3214185/posts

President Obama needs to shake up his White House staff to give new life to his presidency, top Democratic strategists and former White House veterans say. They argue Obama needs an infusion of talent if he hopes to recover over his final two years in office. One prominent party strategist said Obama “should take a flamethrower to his office.” “He needs dramatic change — it’s not even a debatable point,” the strategist said. “The general consensus that the president is surrounded by people who do him more harm than good because they are more focused on pleasing him than they...

Experts: Ebola Outbreak, Black Death ‘Plague’ Spread From Africa as Viruses
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/3214141/posts

Most assume that Black Death quickly ravaged the fourteenth century western world was a bacterial bubonic plague epidemic caused by flea bites and spread by rats. But the Black Death killed a high proportion of Scandinavians — and where they lived was too cold for fleas to survive. A modern work gives us a clue into this mystery. The “Biology of Plagues” published by Cambridge University Press analyzed 2,500 years of plagues and concluded that the Black Death was caused by a viral hemorrhagic fever pandemic similar to Ebola. [snip]

[If this study is true. The Black Death later became airborne after mutating. Fleas would not have been needed at that stage for Sandinavia to be hit. But, I’m no expert.]

We Need Some Regulatory Patriotism [Economics]

It’s no mystery why American companies have stockpiled over $2 trillion of overseas earnings in foreign bank accounts. If they bring it to the United States, the IRS would grab 35% of it. That’s the US corporate tax rate – the highest in the developed world, double the average in EU nations. Medtronic found a creative way to repatriate its cash, allowing it to bring money to the USA subject to just a 12.5% tax. The company acquired Covidien, another, smaller medical device firm in Ireland and will establish its formal headquarters in Dublin ... [snip]

Nazi Environmentalism: How Green Were the Nazis?

“The Green movement was the last segment of German Society to admit its complicity with National Socialism and the horrors of the holocaust. While countless historical books have decried the industrial nature of the holocaust, such works fail to explain the motive behind the greatest crime of the 20th century. The Nazi economy and its industry were merely the means by which the holocaust was implemented and paid for. “Nazi Oaks” describes the anti-Semitic historical background of the early German green movement in the 1800’s that was later absorbed by National Socialism under the biological umbrella of ‘scientific’ Social Darwinism....”

Details about US troops fighting in Iraq:

“Abu Gharib is a mere 8 miles from the runway perimeter, while the distance from BGW to the US Embassy in Baghdad’s Green Zone is roughly 9.5 miles. The Washington Times reported earlier this summer that ISIS captured upwards of 52 American made M198mm howitzer heavy artillery pieces, capable of hitting targets 14-20 miles away.

“The captured M198’s reportedly cost $500,000 per piece. To add insult to injury, the Islamists have also seized 1,500 up-armored Humvees which cost the American taxpayer $220,000 each.”
