Robert Green, the man speaking in this video, has allegedly just been arrested. Mainstream UK media are refusing to pick up the story as it’s “too hot to handle”? Please pass this on and maybe we’ll get to the bottom of it.

I think this is probably a weather balloon or something similar, but I love this guys reaction! The object cuts quite an ominous figure against a typically sunny british sky.

I did not know this… The “Oliver’s Castle” footage is intriguing, though allegedly outed as a hoax…

A sensitive, respectful, and informative film. Twice I’ve seen what may have been the light-ball phenomenon but I couldn’t be certain. And even if I could be, I wouldn’t be able to explain it.

There does appear to be more to these phenomena than blokes at night with planks of wood and string: this much is fairly obvious, at least to me. But what?

I just pray the theories about 2012 being some kind of mental evolutionary jump for the human race are true.

And now these noble MEPs, unlike the British MPs, who only have our best interests at heart are attempting to squeeze the EU Lisbon Treaty through before David Cameron gets a chance to become Prime Minister and turn things around (assuming he even would).

Meanwhile Gordon Brown hangs on desperately like the last machine gunner with a bullet in his throat, he’s losing blood fast but he’s determined to hold the bridge until these Nazi’s arrive to cross it in force...

Are things changing?

I recently returned from abroad. I arrived at Luton airport to the sight of the Daily Telegraph proclaiming “A Very British Revolution”. The news that the corrupt MPs caught thieving from the British tax payers purse are to be reprimanded is warming; hearing the usually thuggish, arrogant tomes of the piously ignorant Gordon Brown eat humble pie across the radio networks was sweet music. However, I am not convinced.

The international mainstream media are currently engaged in a viscious battle with independent and free internet-based media. The potential spoils are no less than our very own minds, the possession – even – of our souls. Many of them have lately been running “conspiracy type” stories to try and catch a slice of the internet pie. Only hits can justify the rates for their advertisers, one of their last standing sources of revenue. Rupert Murdoch, head of News Corporation, recently illustrated this as he vowed the end of the “free internet”: the mainstream media is a dinosaur mired in the mud. It’s death is going to be slow; it’s agonizing shudders of pain, like a severe bout of every flu pandemic it has ever manufactured, will be felt throughout the old order. Who knows what knee-jerk reactions, what slavering, rabid lunges from the leash this demise may create; but die it must and, eventually, will.

American television-based media are deploying smoke screens and decoys left right and centre to bleed and smother topics, evidently of utmost contemporary concern, the alternative media have made their well-rounded and widely – even if often secretly – respected reputation on.

Recently, British MPs were embroiled in attempts to raise their salaries, tax those (to the tune of 50%) that earn more than themselves, and ban public intrusion into the details of their expenses. Now they seem to be clammering over one another to humbly ‘accept’, deny, or deflect responsibility for the atrociously arrogant and childish nest-feathering at the expense of the comparatively honest and underpaid British worker.

Meanwhile, however, the bankers seem to go unpunished: their multi-million pound pensions unretrieved, their sickening bonuses paid.

In the US the overly celebrated and ignorantly defended Barack Obama perpetuates pro-corporate Bush policies under the banner of ’socialism’; while in the UK the Tory leader David Cameron proposes a Tory leadership to heal the drastic wounds British democracy has sustained since 9/11/2001, when we all know he works for exactly the same people Gordon Brown does.

Things appear to be changing. But what is really happening? Is it really that the powers-at-arms sense the real changes happening around them? While there may have been no riots, no protests, no burning cars or rubber bullets – no “summer of rage” as yet – they know power is slipping out of their hands, fast: they just have to look at any poll undertaken by any think-tank or media-outlet unwilling to fiddle the figures.

There is a massive crisis of faith in government and private sector leadership. What am I saying, though? There always has been. But now there is a massive and ever-expanding awareness of the ultra-capitalist elite that truly govern our affairs. Now, it appears, there is a gargantuan effort of the instiutions of the old machine to feign change, to play the part of revolution. The very largest, most deeply set cogs in this prehistoric, reptilian machine are beginning to turn again. The earth is shaking; the gigantic snake is shedding its skin. But it remains to be seen whether we will all simply recognise the same cold creature adorned in its new comely colours.

When we are told about economic crisis, nobody says that this crisis didn’t come about suddenly. The crisis had always been there but it got worse each time that popular masses become more and more conscious of their rights against exploiters.

- Thomas Sankara Addis Adebba, July 1987.

The old paradigm is compromising out of necessicity. In an effort to retain control and keep real change at bay it is shirking and shrugging off middle-management layers. It is, begrudingly, having to appease it’s true, but weary and sadly deluded, master: the public.

One thing I will say, it is encouraging to see this wobble in the matrix. It is a balking within the forward ranks of the enemy. We can only keep up the pressure. We must urge what little integrity we have left among our journalistic elite to thrive now on the information available to them, as it has been to us for so long.

Most of all we must not fall for this feinting tactic. We must purge the system of this sickness and regain control for the sake of our children and the spiritual survival of man.

Let the battle for truth and freedom and the prosperity for all human kind commence.

- Ed

Woah.

“In this two-hour presentation at the world famous Oxford Union, David Icke encapsulates humanity’s current plight and how we can secure our freedom from the Hidden Hand behind global events.

“On the Desperate Edge of Now- This episode examined how the various national memories of the Second World War were effectively rewritten and manipulated in the Cold War period. For Germany, this began at the Nuremberg Trials, where attempts were made to prevent the Nazis in the dock—principally Hermann Göring—from offering any rational argument for what they had done. Subsequently, however, bringing lower-ranking Nazis to justice was effectively forgotten about in the interests of maintaining West Germany as an ally in the Cold War. For the Allied countries, faced with a new enemy in the Soviet Union, there was a need to portray WW2 as a crusade of pure good against pure evil, even if this meant denying the memories of the Allied soldiers who had actually done the fighting, and knew it to have been far more complex. A number of American veterans told how years later they found themselves plagued with the previously-suppressed memories of the brutal things they had seen and done. The title comes from a veteran’s description of what the uncertainty of survival while combat is like.”

“You Have Used Me as a Fish Long Enough- In this episode, the history of brainwashing and mind control was examined. The angle pursued by Curtis was the way in which psychiatry pursued tabula rasa theories of the mind, initially in order to set people free from traumatic memories and then later as a potential instrument of social control. The work of Ewen Cameron was surveyed, with particular reference to Cold War theories of communist brainwashing and the search for hypnoprogammed assassins. The programme’s thesis was that the search for control over the past via medical intervention had had to be abandoned and that in modern times control over the past is more effectively exercised by the manipulation of history. Some film from this episode, an interview with one of Cameron’s victims, was later re-used by Curtis in his The Century of the Self. The title of this episode comes from a paranoid schizophrenic seen in archive film in the programme, who believed her neighbours were using her as a source of amusement by denying her any privacy, like a pet goldfish.”

“The Attic- In this episode, the Imperial aspirations of Margaret Thatcher were examined. The way in which Mrs Thatcher used public relations in an attempt to emulate Winston Churchill in harking back to Britain’s “glorious past” to fulfil a political or national end. The title is a reference to the attic flat at the top of 10 Downing Street, which was created during Thatcher’s period refurbishment of the house, which did away with the Prime Minister’s previous living quarters on lower floors. Scenes from The Innocents (film) the adaptation of The Turn of the Screw by Henry James are intercut with Thatcher’s reign“

More superb journalism from Adam Curtis.
