Currently, Blackwater is suing the families of four of its employees who were killed in Iraq for $10 million each. Their offense? They wanted to know how their family members were killed, the company refused to tell them, so they sued for the information.

Who owns Blackwater?

A right wing "good Christian" pro-corporate family that controls over $1 billion in assets amd has been very generous to the Bush family.

Blackwater is just one of their projects.

I'd like to remind folks that libelous slander, in the United States, only exists in cases in which an issuer's claims are not true. In the U.K. that is not true and we are not in the U.K. That said, here is the latest, small chapter in the psy-op known as the Mike Ruppert Entourage.

Were the Security Monitor Photos of the "hijackers", walking to the gates at Boston? or were they from Dulles? actually a tape feed, copied from United Airlines Terminal in Washington, Dulles NOT Boston, Logan? Bush's brother "Marvin Pierce Bush" was the Director of a security company that specialized in Installing Video security equipment...at the World Trade Centers 1-7. Camera's on each floor should have captured images of "explosions". Where IS THE TAPE?

I thought I'd highlight the awesome publication entitled Secrecy News. Kept track of here are the latest developments in intelligence and defense activities, from the newest budget adjustments to papers issued by shadowy groups like the JASON Group. I consider it a vital tool for keeping up on the ball. Here are some great snips you might have missed, were it not for Steve Aftergood, from the past three months:
