Laws in some European countries that impede migrant children from reuniting with their families or force them to leave when they turn 18 create a “huge security risk” by potentially turning young people to crime and extremism, the chief of Europe’s top human rights body said Friday. Council of Europe Secretary General Thorbjorn Jagland said such laws compel many young migrants facing uncertain futures to flee, leaving them vulnerable to exploitation from human traffickers who could push them into crime or the illicit sex trade. “This is causing a huge security risk for Europe,” Jagland said during an interview with...

A new Democratic-aligned political action committee advised by retired Army Gen. Stanley McChrystal, the former head of U.S. forces in Afghanistan, is planning to deploy technology originally developed to counter Islamic State propaganda in service of a domestic political goal - to combat online efforts to promote President Donald Trump's handling of the coronavirus pandemic. The group, Defeat Disinfo, will use artificial intelligence and network analysis to map discussion of the president's claims on social media. It will seek to intervene by identifying the most popular counter-narratives and boosting them through a network of more than 3.4 million influencers across...

32 American members of the far left Code Pink activist group joined a Pakistani march in October 2012 against US drone attacks.

Richard Hoagland, the acting U.S. ambassador to Pakistan, discussed with Code Pink and anti-Israel activists what he said was classified information, during an October 3 meeting with the groups in Islamabad. Code Pink, a liberal anti-war organization known for disrupting Republican and conservative public events, uploaded a video of the meeting to an Internet video sharing website on Oct. 5. Realizing what he had said, Hoagland told the activist gathering: “I probably just, you know, got into big trouble with what I just said.”

Web site will update what Richard C. is saying.

In this epsiode of the Conscience of Kansas radio program I interview Ken Hoagland, author of the book "The Fairtax Solution." Next we open a little Ron Paul hate mail. In the second part of the program I interview Vicki Behenna, mother of Lt. Michael Behenna who was sentenced to 25 years for the shooting death of suspected terrorist Ali mansur in Iraq. It is a tremendous story that all Americans should hear.

.........While, we know that NASA is operating -- as it has been for fifty years -- on a carefully calculated, “timed release aspirin,” national security model -- dictated (in part) by the paranoid excuses framed by "the Brookings Report." Augmented -- this unique year -- by Karl Rove's converging campaign calculations .... So as to bring maximum political advantage, regarding this extraordinary new Reality, to ... John McCain.

Desperate presidents resort to desperate rhetoric, which calls new attention to their desperation. President Bush joined the club this week by citing U.S. failure in Vietnam to justify staying on in Iraq. Bush's comparison of the two conflicts rivals Richard Nixon's “I am not a crook” utterance during Watergate and Bill Clinton's “I did not have sexual relations with that woman, Miss Lewinsky,” in producing unintended consequences of a most damaging kind for a sitting president. It is not just that Bush's speech to the Veterans of Foreign Wars convention on Wednesday drew on a shaky grasp of history, spotlighted...

3D Face on Mars Credit: NASA, MRO, MGS, Stereo Anaglyph: Patrick Vantuyne Explanation: Get out your red/blue glasses and gaze down on this weathered mesa on Mars. Of course, described as a rock formation which resembles a human head in a 1976 NASA press release, this mesa is also famous as the Face on Mars. The sharp stereo image was created by combining high resolution pictures from cameras on two different spacecraft in Mars orbit - Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter and Mars Global surveyor. It shows rugged details of the approximately 2 kilometer wide, isolated hill - similar to mesa...

Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter ... and"The Lost Cities of Barsoom" .... by Richard C. Hoaglandupdated 4/7/06The Enterprise MissionAnother close-up from the same MRO mosaic (rotated 50 degrees, clockwise -- below) demonstrates that not all "quasi-circular features" on Mars are simple "impact craters." This remarkably preserved example exhibits organized, interior geometric detail characteristic of a massive, designed building ... surrounded by six, geometrically aligned, surviving elevated "walls" -- minus a possible roof! The massive former structure is attended by an array of additional, still partially-buried rectilinear features just outside. NOT A PING LIST, merely posted to:

In these last days, the Bible says it will be a time of mass hybridization and the mixture and corruption of human DNA by fallen angels, also known as "Aliens." The government is and has been, conditioning the existence of aliens through Hollywood, science fiction, cartoons, and other sources. However, they are not telling you the whole truth. These Aliens are not ascended masters, or enlightened ones, or beings from galaxies millions of miles away, nor are they our forefathers or original creators. They are fallen angels who were kicked out of heaven for their rebellion against the headship...

Yes, ladies and gentlemen. Late night radio at its whacky best. George Noory and Coast to Coast AM. I cannot do this thread every night. I don't want to do it even if I could. Who would like to take the responsibility to start this thread each night? If you cannot hear it on your local station, you can listen online at www.KFI640.com

In a November 3 column in the Washington Post, Jim Hoagland confirmed that the Joseph Wilson affair was a CIA plot against President Bush. Writing his column in the form of a letter to the President, Hoagland wrote that "The hidden management of the criminal justice process and the news media practiced by spooks in Wilson-Rove-Libbygate is nothing short of brilliant. So you were right to fear the agency." Think about that statement to the President—"you were right to fear the agency."

Another day, another Hoagland call in! Our favorite conspirator, Richard C. Hoagland is on talking about the 'man made' created hurricane. He interrupted Linda Moulton Howe who was talking about Crop Circles. His proof now? Apparently, on certain frequencies on a ham radio (ones apparently used for emergency officials), there is a mysterous hum. Also, Bush apparently mentioned that this was like a 'weapon' had gone off. And for those who missed it, good news! He'll be back next hour! Hmmm! I'm convince! Are you?

A scientist just said Katrina was manipulated. And now........Richard C. Hoagland is back. Let's hear some more of you weigh in on this. Can a storm be manipulated?

Deep Impact ... Deepening Contradictions Well, it's been over a full week now -- more than seven days -- since NASA's Deep Impact Spacecraft slammed into Comet Tempel 1-- And apparently kicked up a major firestorm ... on Earth. "Something's" definitely been happening, since the highly-publicized culmination of "Deep Impact" the other night, but NOT in public. Something that's potentially far more revealing than "just another successful NASA mission": A behind-the-scenes-eruption -- currently taking place in Washington and in Pasadena -- over precisely what Deep Impact actually ran into the other night .... How do we know that such "an...

Ancient Pyramids Discovered in Italy 02-May-2003 On the Farshores website, Marco V. of Varese, Italy writes, "You may be interested in a discovery which has been recently made: three pyramids were discovered thanks to satellite and aerial imagery in northern Italy, in the town of Montevecchia… They are the first pyramids ever discovered in Italy and the dimensions are quite impressive; the highest pyramid is [500 feet] tall. They are stone buildings, as recent excavations have proved. However, they are now completely covered by ground and vegetation, so that they now look like hills. "The inclination degree of all the...

Sept 10 - We are continuing to uncover more details about this issue. So far, NASA's response to this controversy is that "there is no controversy" and that the low-resolution images on the THEMIS webserver are the only ones acquired by Odyssey. Their standpoint is that anything else out there is "doctored" and certainly didn't come from the Odyssey IR instrument. Other media outlets are picking up these claims. Well, they simply aren't doing their homework as journalists. We on the other hand, are... To wit:
