It’s astounding that they’re actually saying what the rest of us already know: WASHINGTON — For more than a decade, questions have lingered about the possible role of the Saudi government in the attacks on Sept. 11, 2001, even as the royal kingdom has made itself a crucial counterterrorism partner in the eyes of American diplomats. Now, in sworn statements that seem likely to reignite the debate, two former senators who were privy to top secret information on the Saudis’ [...]

Bye bye, free speech
Just kidding! I’m sure this would never be used against the enemies of the status quo: Japanese scientists with the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology claimed this week that they have developed a novel new weapon by combining two specialized technologies in such a way that they are now capable of rendering someone unable to speak. While it’s not technically a weapon, their “portable speech-jamming gun” could certainly be used as one, especially against political leaders or [...]

Not all the time, and not for particularly long. But when it counts — during an earthquake — the company’s technology canlevitate a house more than an inch off its foundation. That means that while the earth shakes, the house stays safe. Here’s how it works: an alarm registers an [...]

The Jeb scenario playing out?
Journalist Russ Baker, publisher of WhoWhatWhy.com and author of “Family of Secrets: The Bush Dynasty, America’s Invisible Government, and the Hidden History of the Last Fifty Years,” (an utterly chilling book, by the way) thinks the Bush clan is working behind the scenes to install Jeb next. Baker is no whack job, although you’d think so from the reactions to his current topics. He seems to be avoided by the same establishment media types who used to hire him and [...]
