| Is Tiger Woods really the "King of Golf?" Posted: 29 May 2010 02:01 AM PDT  It's frequently stated how Tiger (formerly Eldrick) Woods is the best professional golfer of all time. This may be, and possibly is true. However, there is also an exaggeration in how he is supposed to be the best of all-time! My analysis even disregards that many never play golf, and very very few people even play golf enough to play professionally. Most play as a child, and never play again-or, wait until late teenage years to get serious about golf. And, Tiger Woods most likely started playing golf at much younger age (with yet more opportunities) than the other PGA Golf Greats.  |
| Settlers Hurl Stones At Palestinians Near Qalqilia, Four Wounded Posted: 29 May 2010 01:21 AM PDT  Palestinian medical sources reported Friday evening that four Palestinians were mildly wounded after a group of settlers hurled stones at Palestinian vehicles east of Qalqilia, in the northern part of the West Bank.

| Posted: 29 May 2010 01:13 AM PDT  We tried to tell you. We tried to warn you. For years, those of us who insisted on thinking rationally and living in the real world — who were able to "see through the Jews" and recognize race reality — tried to make you, our liberal, politically-correct, non-racially conscious and non-Jew-wise friends and family members see and understand the truth. The truth about the wrong-headedness and racially suicidal results of such things as egalitarianism, outgroup altruism, diversity, multiculturalism, integration, miscegenation (race-mixing), Jewish power and brainwashing and control of our media and government, and all the rest.  |
| Lieberman: "Freedom Flotilla, Violent" Posted: 29 May 2010 01:09 AM PDT  Israeli Foreign Minister, Avigdor Lieberman, stated Friday afternoon that the solidarity ships, filled with medical and humanitarian supplies, and heading to Gaza, is a "violent propaganda against Israel", and vowed not to allow the ship to reach Gaza.

| Nepal to extend parliamentary term Posted: 29 May 2010 12:17 AM PDT  Nepal's main political party leaders have agreed to extend the country's parliamentary term by one year, following talks aimed at averting a political crisis.

| Imagine 2050: Federal Troops Should Occupy Arizona Posted: 28 May 2010 11:28 PM PDT  Imagine 2050 wants the National Guard deployed to Arizona to protect illegal aliens and drug traffickers from "organized racism" and "border vigilantes." In their words, this is about "civil rights," not "national security." Apparently, it is a "civil right" now for foreign criminals (including thieves, rapists, and murderers) to break into America, squat on American soil, and terrorize U.S. citizens.  |
| Next Rand Paul Slam: Anchor Babies Posted: 28 May 2010 11:12 PM PDT  In the wake of the "scandal" of Rand Paul's unwavering support of property rights, the corporate media has fired another salvo from its trebuchet. Now it insinuates that Rand Paul is a racist because he is opposed to the government granting citizenship to anchor babies. "U.S. Senate candidate Rand Paul is stirring it up again, this time by saying he opposes citizenship for children born in the U.S. to parents who are illegal immigrants," reports the Associated Press. "Paul, who a week ago won the GOP primary, told a Russian TV station in a clip circulating on political Web sites Friday that he wants to block citizenship to those children."  |
| NPT declaration to name Israel Posted: 28 May 2010 10:26 PM PDT  The US has agreed to a deal at the United Nations that would put pressure on Israel to join the nuclear Non-proliferation Treaty (NPT), according to Western diplomats. Delegates in New York are concluding a month-long round of talks aimed at updating the NPT. Their final draft reportedly urges Israel to join the treaty and subject its nuclear facilities to oversight by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).  |
| "Rise Of The New Right" MSNBC Documentary Cites Alex Jones, Rand Paul As "Extremists" Posted: 28 May 2010 10:00 PM PDT  MSNBC has begun airing trailers for an upcoming documentary, which the network has titled "Rise Of The New Right", that prominently features interview footage with Alex Jones.

| Bilderberg: The Open Conspiracy Posted: 28 May 2010 08:48 PM PDT  Now that the agenda for global government and a centralized world economic system is public and out in the open, the importance of the Bilderberg Group's annual conference rests on grooming political candidates. The lion's share of Bilderberg's 2010 agenda has already been announced by its members weeks before – it will revolve around a potential military strike on Iran as well as the future collapse of the euro.  |
| Fergie's Fuss, Lindsay's SCRAM, and Uma Uncovers a Scam Posted: 28 May 2010 07:54 PM PDT  When we pointed out two weeks ago that Fergie was strapped for cash, we never anticipated the chaos that would happen next. The perpetually hapless Duchess of York was caught on video last week trying to sell access to former husband Prince Andrew. An intrepid undercover reporter from News of the World posed as a wealthy businessman and made a covert deal to meet the Duke, with Fergie reportedly taking $40,000 in cash before a total deal of $725,000 to make an introduction that would "open doors" for the reporter. After Fergie found out about the sting, she made a tearful apology for her "serious lapse in judgment" but, strangely enough, hasn't shied away from the spotlight. Her children's book is getting a higher run (which means more money in the flame-haired wheeler-and-dealer's pockets) and she's making a splashy appearance on Oprah this Tuesday. If there's no such thing as bad publicity, perhaps this is exactly what the desperate woman wanted all along? As for the other half of the scandal, Andrew, who supposedly knew nothing of his ex's plotting, has remained mum.  |
| The Zionists are gunning for Hague already Posted: 28 May 2010 06:53 PM PDT  He's two weeks into his new role as Foreign Secretary, but already the Zionists' guns are out to get William Hague. The editor of the Jewish Chronicle, Stephen Pollard, claims that "Hague is no friend of Israel"; his article, in which he lambasts Mr. Hague for condemning Israel's "disproportionate" use of force in the invasion of Lebanon in 2006, appears in the same issue of the JC in which the Foreign Secretary says his government "is committed to changing the law on universal jurisdiction". This would, of course, allow suspected war criminals like Tzipi Livni and other leading Israelis to enter Britain without fear of arrest for war crimes and possibly crimes against humanity.  |
| Israeli Troops Stop Anti Wall Protest Near Bethlehem Posted: 28 May 2010 05:10 PM PDT  The villagers of Al Ma'ssra, near the southern West Bank city of Bethlehem, conducted on Friday their weekly anti wall protest. Villagers along with international and Israeli supporters marched from the village mosque after the midday prayers and headed towards their lands were Israel is building the wall. |
| Beijing suspects false flag attack on South Korean corvette Posted: 28 May 2010 05:05 PM PDT  WMR's intelligence sources in Asia suspect that the March attack on the South Korean Navy anti-submarine warfare (ASW) corvette, the Cheonan, was a false flag attack designed to appear as coming from North Korea. One of the main purposes for increasing tensions on the Korean peninsula was to apply pressure on Japanese Prime Minister Yukio Hatoyama to reverse course on moving the U.S. Marine Corps base off Okinawa. Hatoyama has admitted that the tensions over the sinking of the Cheonan played a large part in his decision to allow the U.S. Marines to remain on Okinawa. Hatoyama's decision has resulted in a split in the ruling center-left coalition government, a development welcome in Washington, with Mizuho Fukushima, the Social Democratic Party leader threatening to bolt the coalition over the Okinawa reversal.  |
| Killing Hostages–Financial Meltdown in Greece Israel's Warning to the Rest of the World Posted: 28 May 2010 04:57 PM PDT  I'll say up front that I–like most folks trying to earn an honest living these days–am no financial wizard. All someone need do is look at my house, car, bank account and wallet and in a microsecond it becomes crystal clear that what I know about making money would fit in an empty Coca Cola can. Having long ago recognized the wisdom in that old saying concerning the love of money being the root of all evil, words such as derivatives, junk bonds, selling short, credit-default swaps and the rest are all "Greek" to me, as the old saying goes.  |
