November: History past and present

Last week, we celebrated Remembrance Day. Like every other year, beautiful remembrance ceremonies were held. No attention was brought to the real issues that plague veterans. The large increase in veterans and active soldiers committing suicide and women in the military being raped and abused is not a focus in the media at this time. Nor is it really ever, and so it continues.

The very purpose of why we go to war is a fabrication. The soldiers in Afghanistan play a vital role in maintaining poppy fields. The war against terror is a lie. This war is really a thorough destabilization of eastern countries and mass theft of natural resources. This war is the real terrorism. This war is for oil. This war is for money, by the corporations, through the powers that be. I won't expose the history behind World Wars I and II here but I will touch on Vietnam. Although most people are unaware, there were around 30,000 Canadian troops that volunteered to aid the U.S. in Vietnam. I won't go into detail, but this war began over a lie. The Gulf of Tonkin incident never really happened.

This November will also mark the 50th anniversary of John F. Kennedy's assassination. Though this isn't of importance to most people in Canada, his presidency and the consequences and details of his assassination are of immense importance to modern history. His assassination was a turning point, one in which America essentially lost its innocence. As a child growing up in America, I was taught in history class that Lee Harvey Oswald was the lone assassin. Fifty years after the fact, kids are still being lied to and justice has not been done. There were multiple shooters, but what really fascinates is the long list of people involved, people standing to gain from his death. Lyndon B. Johnson, Allen Dulles, Cord Meyer, George Bush, Richard Nixon, J. Edgar Hoover, H.L. Hunt, Guy Bannister, Carlos Gambino, Meyer Lanski and Jimmy Hoffa. This is not the complete list. Kennedy fired top CIA officials, he wanted to take down the FBI and the Federal Reserve, and he wanted to stop funding to Israel. He stopped a false flag attack very similar to 9/11 that would have started a war between America and Cuba. If he had lived, Vietnam would have never happened and the Federal Reserve would no longer exist. Israel would not be receiving billions from the U.S. and the rest of our history up to now would be dramatically improved. With enemies in Israel, banks, organized crime, CIA, FBI, and his own administration, he would not be allowed to live.

Later this month Tepco will begin removal of spent fuel rods from Reactor 4 in Fukushima. Approximately 1,500 very fragile spent rods must be removed from a crippled water pool 100 ft. above ground level without the slightest mistake. If anything goes wrong, a massive explosion would ensue and a massive release of radiation would occur. David Suzuki explained quite simply that Japan would go “bye-bye” and the North American west coast would have to be evacuated.
