No "news" articles point out what's in this video about Pa. Republican Gov Tom Corbett: ONE OF HIS BIGGEST CAMPAIGN DONORS RUNS PRIVATE SCHOOLS IN PENNSYLVANIA and he happened to propose the biggest cuts in public education funding in Pa. history! NOT in the "news" anywhere, not in print:
Leaders from other countries help U.S. citizens...while OUR OWN governors cut the help for us:
Above left: GOP Gov Tom Corbett CUTS heating aid to U.S. citizens; above right: Hugo Chavez INCREASES FREE HEATING to U.S. citizens!
While Pennsylvania Republican governor Tom Corbett wants to CUT heating help for Pennsylvanians (while NOT taxing the gas drillers btw...the ONLY state not taxing gas drillers!), "evil leftist dictator" Hugo Chavez wants to increase FREE heating help to U.S. citizens!!! Who's the bad guy?
An ad against the "other" Republican Gov "Koch" Walker of Wisconsin:
Don't they always say this: “I need to focus on taking care of my family and rebuilding my reputation,” Barr told Threatpost.
If you've missed the UK news Rupert Murdoch's NewsCorp wing (which owns a good chunk of the British media) has been caught hacking into the phones of British people and using the info to undermine any liberal opponents. Murdoch's minions have stayed quiet and tried to kill the story. One way they tried to kill it was to say that all of their emails from the hacking time period were lost.
Well...not so lost...copies of the emails surfaced, millions of emails...and a judge just ruled for "rolling disclosure" for the emails. Basically everyone suing Newscorp et al gets a copy of the emails.
Up to 4000 people were hacked by this ONE hired Newscorp investigator but most of proof they had up until now was that he was mostly acting alone and Newscorp branded him a rogue acting alone. These emails most likely contain multiple references to hacking and will surely blow Murdoch's case wide open.
So far they've settled the first lawsuits out of court for around a million bucks a piece. If 4000 hackees sue...imagine how much damage Murdoch's empire, including FOX, might take. Who knows, some of these Emails might contain information that AMerican Newscorp employees were also hacking phones here in the states.
Enjoy the article!! Good news for everyone but Murdoch.

I just keep piling up the FAKE heart-tugging stories to keep the Military Industrial Welfare Bombing State going, here's the latest FAKE story, and later on I'll go back in the blog and pull up some of the other FAKE stories through the years the MIC and the complicit mainstream media is propagandizing us with on the "news" - the "news" is the voice of the military industrial complex, the wealthy, and corporations and is NOT "news", it's MOVIES, FAKE movies with actors acting on behalf of those I mentioned above. Here's the STAGED actress bursting into a room that happens to be filled with reporters:
Here is the direct EVIDENCE that the story is a CIA hoax:

Nayirah al-Ṣabaḥ (Arabic: نيره الصباح), called "Nurse Nayirah" in the media, was a fifteen-year-old Kuwaiti girl, who alleged that she had witnessed the murder of infant children by Iraqi soldiers in Kuwait, in verbal testimony to the U.S. Congress, in the run up to the 1991 Gulf War.[1] Her testimony, which was regarded as credible at the time, has since come to be regarded as wartime propaganda.[2] The public relations firm Hill & Knowlton, which was in the employ of Citizens for a Free Kuwait, had arranged the testimony.[1]

I guess it will be interesting to learn whether and to what extent VOA has an agenda relative to disclosures surrounding this event - as an international propaganda organ of the US Government. If Tokyo's water supply is already too contaminated for infants to drink (and likely adults too), how many days should one surmise it will take until that water supply is too contaminated for ALL to drink...and for how many centuries thereafter? Is there any logical reason to assume this is not a trend?
If the entire water supply of Tokyo becomes too toxic for human use, then what conclusions can we draw about the future evacuation of the entire island of Japan? How soon? To where? By what means? - plunger

Greg Palast: Fukushima Daiichi nuclear situation in Texas?
(note how you have to get the REAL NEWS from RT-Russian Television, and a great American journalist is blacklisted from U.S. mainstream media and has to go on RT!)
Look at the hubris that was designed into these Mark I reactors. The spent fuel is the problem. Stored on site, in open pools requiring pumps to run 24/7, forever, with no backup power supply.
The spent fuel IS the source of the hydrogen that caused the plant explosions. All that was required was for water to stop circulating around these spent fuel rods. That single fact set the rest of what we have witnessed in motion. Once the water stops circulating, the rods heat the water to a boil, evaporating it into steam and producing hydrogen in the process, all best explained and diagrammed here:
So if 20 years of spent nuclear fuel rods were stored in a pool of water at the top of the building, and the top of the building is blown off, is that a problem? Not one you're likely to hear about in the "news". And who DESIGNED the facility to store its spent fuel rods on the fucking roof? That would be Jeffrey Immelt's GE (Paul Volker's replacement - David Rockefeller's man).
Just saw this guy obfuscating his ass of in an interview on CNN on behalf of the US Nuclear industry:
"We think we're pretty well equipped," said Tony Pietrangelo, a spokesman for the Nuclear Energy Institute, an industry lobbying group.
Expect to see a lot more of him in the coming days, and pay particular attention to whether the interviewer ever forces him to actually ANSWER THE REAL QUESTION:
– The reason they not only lost the back-up generators when the tsunami hit, but can’t easily replace them with portable generators brought to the site is because the connection points, with the generators, were completely flooded by the tsunami.
[The tsunami] easily overcame the sea walls surrounding the Fukushima plant. It swamped the diesel generators, which were placed in a low-lying area, apparently because of misplaced confidence that the sea walls would protect them.
Here's the only guy to listen to re: the truth (which means he will not be seen on TV in the US):
Damon Moglen, director of the climate and energy program at Friends of the Earth, an international network of organizations focusing on environmental issues, said Tepco and the Japanese government are still not being forthcoming enough with information about the scope of the nuclear reactor situation.
“They are handing out nothing and treating it like something,” Moglen said. “Some extremely radioactive elements may have been released and we need more information to say whether we are on the down or up slope of this accident.”
You won't hear anyone answer this question..."where are the spent fuel rods that were stored on site?"
Hydrogen Explosion?
The vertical plume of the explosion at Reactor 3 appears to be shot from a cannon, with some very heavy elements falling out of the cloud. The shape of the dark cloud suggests that the top of the reactor vessel has ruptured. A bright red/orange flash can be seen at the moment of the explosion --- but hydrogen flame is invisible.
The hydrogen explosion at Reactor 1 blew the top and sides off the outer containment shell, hurling light dust and debris evenly away from the center. The shockwave propagation typical of hydrogen ignition events is not evident in the Reactor 2 explosion.
-- Richard D. Masters
International Clearinghouse for Hydrogen Commerce
And here's the description in the link above that speaks of where the 20 years worth of spent fuel rods USED TO BE:
Fears also mounted about the threat posed by the pools of water where years of spent fuel rods are stored.
At the 40-year-old Fukushima Daiichi Unit 1, where an explosion Saturday destroyed a building housing the reactor, the spent-fuel pool, in accordance with General Electric's design, is placed above the reactor. Tokyo Electric said it was trying to figure out how to maintain water levels in the pools, indicating that the normal safety systems there had failed too.
Failure to keep adequate water levels in a pool would lead to a catastrophic fire, said nuclear experts, some of whom think Unit 1's pool might now be outside.
"That would be like Chernobyl on steroids," said Arnie

Remember all the hubub and consternation over storage of spent fuel rods at Yucca Mountain in the United States and the extreme efforts and related debates surrounding this issue?
GE's design to store them on site has just been proven disastrous. Don't expect NBC to tell you how, or why. Don't expect Obama's man, Immelt, to say anything about it either.
This is how fascism, combined with propaganda, work.
So what caused the buildings to explode? Likely the result of the spent fuel rods being exposed to air. They require circulating water to keep them cool. Not only did the water circulation stop, the water supply was cut entirely - so the rods subsequently heated-up and boiled the water out of the pools (producing both steam and hydrogen - think pressure cooker), leading to massive steam/hydrogen build up (with no system for venting - design flaw - thanks GE) and subsequent explosion.
Storage of the spent fuel rods in an open pool within the buildings themselves will be determined as the critical design flaw that led to this outcome. The reason for on site storage is that no one wants to deal with the waste - and without a "solution," GE couldn't sell nuclear plant construction.
The "solution" has been proven not to be one. The price we will all pay, for GE's profits, is incalculable.
The world has just learned the Fascism Lesson. When government and business align, public safety comes last.
Storing spent fuel in open pools in the same building with an active nuclear reactor is the height of insanity.
Assume that once the rods had heated up to the extent that they caused the water to boil off - the next thing that happened was they caught fire - igniting the massive pressurized cloud of built-up hydrogen inside the building.
I'm sure they will tell us that it will take them years to figure out what went wrong, but seriously, how difficult is this? They are storing an ignition source in water. When you take away the water, the ignition source becomes active.
I (plunger) personally photographed an open-air fuel rod storage pool that looks just like this:
Interesting how all of the stories about explosions at power plants claim that it is buildings other than those housing the fuel rods. Sure - you bet.
Also interesting...
GE built these power plants, and clearly the design SHOULD HAVE included positioning the diesel powered back up generators and fuel to power them ON THE ROOF so that in the event of tsunami, the backup power source would not be swamped and the fuel rods could be cooled.
Watch the dance that GE's Jeffrey Immelt does over the coming days. See if he even admits that these are HIS POWER PLANTS.
The plant consists of six boiling water reactors designed by General Electric. The reactors for units 1, 2, and 6 were supplied by General Electric, those for units 3 and 5 by Toshiba, and unit 4 by Hitachi. All six reactors were designed by General Electric.[20] Architectural design for General Electric's units was done by Ebasco.
Reactors 1, 2 and 3 were in operation when the March 11, 2011 earthquake struck, while reactors 4, 5 and 6 were undergoing maintenance.[5] The three operating reactors underwent automatic shut down.
Was it a coincidence that fully half of the reactors at the plant were already shut down for maintenance?
In February 2009, Immelt was appointed as a member to the President's Economic Recovery Advisory Board to provide the president and his administration with advice and counsel in fixing America's economic downturn.[10]
On January 21, 2011, President Obama announced Immelt's appointment as chairman of his outside panel of economic advisers, succeeding former Federal Reserve chairman Paul Volcker.[11] The New York Times reported that Obama's appointment of Immelt was "another strong signal that he intends to make the White House more business-friendly."[11] Immelt will retain his post at G.E. while becoming "chairman of the Council on Jobs and Competitiveness, a newly named panel that President Obama is creating by executive order."
NOW WHO DO YOU SUPPOSE THE US WILL INSIST GETS THE CONTRACTS TO REBUILD JAPAN AND ITS INFRASTRUCTURE?
Watch how the US strong arms Japan to get GE these contracts.
Now look who was responsible for the design of the plant - and note the connection from GE to Raytheon (remember Raytheon's direct role in 9/11?)
The Electric Bond and Share Company was originally a holding company that sold securities of electric utilities. It was created by General Electric in 1905. The company was restructured after the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935. Later known as EBASCO Services, it provided engineering consulting and construction services. Among other projects EBASCO designed nuclear power plants. EBASCO was sold to Raytheon in 1993 and became Raytheon Engineers and Constructors.
So GE owned EBASCO during the time the plant was built, and despite having sold it to Raytheon in 1993 - GE owned the design and construction of this power plant.
Here's GE-Hitach, based in Wilmington, DE.
The book of business they have lined up to build nuclear power plants around the world represents BILLIONS that will not flow to GE when these projects are shelved.
How will the US government work to protect GE and Immelt.
FASCISM IN ACTION. Watch & Learn.
The conflicts of interest is staggeringly obvious to this US Taxpayer.
My comment:
The NRC had just approved GE-Hitachi's latest reactor design, set to be implemented worldwide, and this story comes out on the same day as the tsunami?
Look how Obama flew to India on Immelt's behalf to try to compel the Indian government to set aside its liability law to let GE-Hitachi off the hook if/when something goes wrong with their reactors in the future:
From the story linked above:
India sticks it to U.S. over liability law
Another of those key commercial prospects is India, which as part of its massive nuclear energy expansion program has identified a site that would feature multiple GEH ESBWR reactors. GEH CEO Caroline Reda has been gung ho in pursuit of business with India traveling there as part of an official U.S. trade mission in February 2011.
To ink deals there, the Indian government will have to set aside a draconian supplier liability law that has locked out American firms from entering the market. Despite considerable diplomatic pressure, and a visit from President Obama last November, the Indian government hasn't budged on the issue.
GE's stock is down 2.3% in the pre-market. It should collapse by any logical measure. If you see it rescued at the end of trading, it's the US government doing the buying - with your money.
And then (as always) there is David Rockefeller - his connections to Volker, Geithner, and Immelt:
The state Public Service Commission is poised Friday to approve selection of a Louisiana corporation with a history of environmental violations to manage Wisconsin's popular Focus on Energy program.
Shaw Environmental and Infrastructure Inc., a subsidiary of the Baton
Rouge-based Shaw Group, was selected by an evaluation committee that included four representatives of Wisconsin's investor-owned utilities.
Shaw also has some ties to Koch Industries, the Wichita, Kan., firm that has been a big booster of embattled Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker. But there is no indication that Koch Industries would profit from the deal.
Note that he can barely contain his glee over the events in Japan - and has been fed the talking points that the event in Japan is GOOD FOR THE MARKET - GOOD NEWS FOR THE US ECONOMY.
Don't think for a moment this is a "natural" disaster. The timing was selected for multiple reasons. Watch gold, oil, the US dollar and the stock market. Watch Japan submit to the will of the NWO.
An unmanned Delta 4 rocket launched from Cape Canaveral, Florida on Friday carrying a spy satellite. And that's about all that the general public really knows at this point.
The rocket launch, which had briefly been delayed because of high winds, is hauling along a satellite for the National Reconnaissance Office. So what's going up there? Cue Hollywood and let your imaginations roam. For the record, the Air Force Space Command put out a terse comment under the byline of Col. James Ross of the 45th Space Wing vice commander. He explained that the mission "helps ensure that crucial NRO resources will continue to strengthen our national defense."
However, there are some common strands to follow. The launch follows by less than a week the Air Force's launch of its second secret X-37B space plane on yet another clandestine mission. Both that spacecraft and this launch blasted off on a rocket provided by United Launch Alliance, a Virginia-based company that designs, builds and operates the U.S's intelligence-gathering spy satellite network.
How does the death of AIR FORCE man, John Wheeler, tie to a Tsunami in Japan? How does HAARP tie to birds falling from the sky? Why not ask Karl Rove - "THE ARCHITECT?"
So HAARP can target an individual aircraft, interfere with its communications and flight controls, and cause it to fall out of the sky, leaving no evidence of the cause.
Now why does that sound familiar? Wasn't there a guy named Rove who was going to be subjected to some witness having to do with election tampering? See this:
(click on this picture to enlarge in new window) Connell died when the single-engine aircraft he was piloting just prior to Christmas 2008 crashed in flames near Akron. The tragedy came just weeks after he was compelled by a federal judge to give a deposition in a long-standing 2004 federal election fraud lawsuit, on the heels of reports that Connell had been threatened by Rove to "take the fall" for whatever happened in '04. After Worrall's year-long investigation, he believes it's highly likely that Connell was, in fact, murdered.
Just six weeks before his death, Connell had given a deposition in an Ohio lawsuit that accused Rove, Bush, and Co. of something far more serious than merely scrubbing e-mails: the theft of the 2004 Ohio vote.
“We detected a pattern of criminal activity, and we identified Connell as a key witness, as the implementer for Rove.”
Connell's sister: "His death would have been a really nice Christmas present for Rove and Cheney."
When you combine the extreme evil of David Rockefeller's "Architect," Rove with the capabilities of HAARP, is there any purpose for which he will not devise a strategy to use it?
Developing offensive capabilities for the military is ALWAYS to add to their arsenal of options. The US military has yet to devise a capability they would hesitate to deploy.
So who knew virtually EVERYTHING about HAARP, it's capabilities, and future intended uses (possibly including the creation of a tsunami in the coming months)?
John P Wheeler III: Former Special Assistant to the Secretary of the Air Force, Member of Council on Foreign Relations, Consultant to Mitre. John P. Wheeler worked on the HAARP project as a consultant for the MITRE corp. whose expertise lies chiefly in high-tech weaponry and spearheads in the latest intelligence gathering technology. Was there something he knew and was planning go public with concerning the use of HAARP?
Zbigniew Brzezinski, President Jimmy Carter's National Security Director, said in his book, Between Two Ages, weather control was a new weapon that would be the key element of strategy. "Technology will make available to leaders of major nations a variety of techniques for conducting secret warfare..." He also wrote "Accurately timed, artificially excited electronic strokes could lead to a pattern of oscillations that produce relatively high power levels over certain regions of the Earth ... one could develop a system that would seriously impair the brain performance of a very large population in selected regions over an extended period." [Cited in Baker's "ELF Psychotronic Tyranny" paper.]
High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program, HAARP
The HAARP Program is jointly managed by the US Air Force and the US Navy, and is based in Gakona, Alaska. It is designed to "understand, simulate and control ionospheric processes that might alter the performance of communication and surveillance systems." The HAARP system intends to beam 3.6 Gigawatts of effective radiated power of high frequency radio energy into the ionosphere in order to (all of which may be disinformation):
* Generate extremely low frequency (ELF) waves for communicating with submerged submarines
* Conduct geophysical probes to identify and characterize natural ionospheric processes so that techniques can be developed to mitigate or control them
* Generate ionospheric lenses to focus large amounts of high frequency energy, thus providing a means of triggering ionospheric processes that potentially could be exploited for Department of Defense purposes,
* Electron acceleration for infrared (IR) and other optical emissions which could be used to control radio wave propagation properties
* Generate geomagnetic field aligned ionization to control the reflection/scattering properties of radio waves,
* Use oblique heating to produce effects on radio wave propagation, thus broadening the potential military applications of ionospheric enhancement technology.

Here's my friend at it again: this proves how powerful, corrupt, and controlled the mainstream media is - they can cover up ANYTHING, like WTC7 the 47 story building a block away that was NOT hit by a plane on 9/11 falling free fall speed in 6 seconds:
College students are asked how many buildings collapsed on 9/11
Here's WTC7 falling on 9/11, NOT hit by a plane, it was CONTROLLED DEMOLITION like the Twin Towers:

Rep. Kucinich Fires Up Madison Workers' Rights Rally
100,000 demonstrators yesterday in Madison, though apparently, it never happened, because it wasn't on the news.
Can you distinguish any "bias" in CNN's "coverage" of the events in Wisconsin? Breaking a law, in order to pass one, does not make the resulting "law," the "law of the land." Who told CNN's talking head to use the phrase "law of the land" not once, but twice? What is the name of that news director, and who told him to give those instructions to his subordinate?
