The Rise of Alternative News Media

In case you haven't noticed, the mainstream American "media" is quickly becoming a joke on the world scene. The corporatized, politically compliant American news media, as an independent investigative arm, has all but collapsed. The American people need to start questioning (if they haven't already) why we consistently hear different, even contradictory stories from alternative, independent and foreign media coverage of the same events.

For example, the celebrated "assassination" of Osama Bin Laden was blasted all over American mainstream media for days on end. A ridiculous story was fed to the people, contradicted and amended multiple times, and finally we got to hear what every political talking head had to say about. The majority of them saying how great a "victory" this was for America and continual patting ourselves on the back, followed by video footage of ignorant masses of people celebrating in the streets, eerily similar to the celebrations conveniently filmed in Afghanistan after 9-11. This sounds like another great way to make some new enemies and fuel more hatred in order to prolong the instigated "War on Terror". Watch the following video by James Corbett of The Corbett Report for a better understanding of the mainstream media's feeble attempt to deceive. It's almost comical..

War for peace?

Does anybody else out there find it strange that the US is currently engaged in multiple wars while the economy is on the verge of collapse and the debt that our country has incurred could never be paid off. I came across a stunning fact the other day which pointed out that, even if every American was taxed 100% of their earnings for the rest of their lives, we would still be unable to pay off a fraction of our country's debt! According to my research into the orchestrated collapse of our financial system, this is all part of a larger plan to bring about the end of our current financial system, with the forced solution of a global financial system, currency and government. If anyone is interested in this subject, I would highly recommend Crisis By Design -The Global Financial Coup by John Truman Wolf. 

This leads me back to my question about the strangeness of our government and its allies' choice to continue these expensive wars for such a long period of time. Does anyone remember the basis of Obama's campaign? Change we can believe in? Have we forgotten his promises to close our base in Guantanamo and bring our troops back home from Iraq and Afghanistan? Does it not seem odd that we have done none of these things and we've actually just entered into another armed conflict, this time in Libya? Another "humanitarian" war for peace? There is clearly much more to the story here.
