Global Firepower
GFP provides a unique analytical display of data covering global military powers with statistics compiled through various sources. All manner of countries are considered in the ranking, a spectrum helping to produce a near-complete comparison of relative military strengths from across the globe. The user should note that nuclear capability is not taken into account for the final ranking for this listing is purely a "numbers game" meant to spark debate and including nuclear weapons would clearly defeat its purpose. Therefore GFP comparisons are for consideration in a conventional war based solely on each individual nation's capabilities on land, at sea and through the air while including logistical and financial aspects when waging total war. Sources are stated whenever possible though some statistics are estimated if official numbers are not available

World’s largest, most advanced underground hospital opens in Haifa
The world’s largest and most advanced “fortified hospital” was unveiled this week at Rambam Medical Center in Haifa. The 2,000 bed underground hospital is designed to keep patients and staff safe dozens of meters below ground even if missiles and rockets are falling above ground – in case the city ever faces the kind of attack it did during the Second Lebanon War in 2006. It is also designed to keep out chemical or biological weapons

Russia accuses US of arming Syrian rebels
Reports in Iran allege that Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United States are arming Syria's rebels -- termed "terrorists" by Damascus -- while US officials claim Iran is giving arms and military advisors to Syria's regime.Monitors say more than 14,100 people have been killed in the 15-month uprising against the regime of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.Russia came under fierce criticism from Western and Arab countries for vetoing two UN Security Council resolutions that would have sanctioned Assad for his use of force.Since then, it has sought to distance itself from Assad while continuing to support his regime. "We do not support any individual or government, we support the people of Syria," Lavrov said.Moscow is now trying to organise an international conference on Syria that would include several nations with influence over the conflict, including Iran. The United States, Britain and France, though, object to Iran taking part."We want the support of all the players," Lavrov said."All sides in the conflict need to stop operations ... Any player with leverage should apply pressure to stop the violence and facilitate negotiations," he said.

Israel-Loving Ex-Terrorist in Open Visit
The ‘Son of Hamas’ who helped Israel’s war on terror has made his first open visit, expresses love for Israeli people.
By Maayana Miskin
First Publish: 6/15/2012


Mosab Hassan Yousef’s life has been far from simple. Born in Ramallah to the founder and leader of Hamas, he made an about-face as a young adult and for several years helped Israel fight terrorism.

Yousef later converted to Christianity and moved to the United States. He wrote a book about his life story, titled Son of Hamas.

Now he is making his first open trip to Israel, as a guest of Deputy Minister Ayoub Kara. “I want to tell the people of Israel that I love you,” he said in an interview with Channel 2 television.

“I don’t think there was ever something called ‘Palestine,’” he continued. “I don’t think that what my people needs is a state – they need freedom.”

Yousef was asked about his father, Hamas leader Sheikh Hassan Yousef. He said he sees his father as “a lost soul.”

He has previously warned Israel against attempting peace with Hamas. “Based on the values according to which Hamas operates, Israel cannot allow itself to compromise for a 30-year ‘hudna,’” he said, using the Arabic term for a temporary peace.

Yousef’s former handler, then-Shin Bet intelligence services agent Gonen Ben-Yitzchak, gave an interview as well. “People like Mosab, whose identities are revealed only on very rare occasions, struggle there so that Israelis can move freely here and live peacefully,” he said.

GOP delegates sue to be free from Romney
The federal lawsuit, filed this week in U.S. District Court in California by mostly supporters of Ron Paul, demands the delegates be freed to “vote their conscience” for presidential nominee at the party’s August national convention in Tampa, Fla., rather than being “bound” to vote for a certain candidate, as many state party bylaws require, based on the primary elections and other delegate selection procedures.

U.S. House of Representatives, in an overwhelmingly bipartisan 401–11 vote, has passed a resolution (HR 568) urging the president to oppose any policy toward Iran “that would rely on containment as an option in response to the Iranian nuclear threat.” The language of this resolution significantly lowers the bar by declaring it unacceptable for Iran simply to have “nuclear weapons capability” — not necessarily any actual weapons or an active nuclear weapons program. Some members of Congress have argued that since Iranians have the expertise and technological capacity to develop nuclear weapons, they already have “nuclear weapons capability.”

Drones over US to get weaponized – so far, non-lethally
http://rt.com/usa/news/us-domestic-drones-armed-090/

My sister and niece saw a drone several months ago near the Canadian border. They are already out there and have been for a while. My question is, while the elderly and infants are shaken down and nuked for naked photos at airports, who's in control of how secure these (what I consider anti-Constitutional) drones are? They've lost hundreds of laptops at Los Alamos, flew nukes by 'accident' from North Dakota to a Southern state (after which most flunkies involved were killed or died), and other security breeches so how do we know some lunatic like mobama or eric holder can't get one and drop a few weapons on US Citizens? We don't. These things are going to be used against US Citizen and Constitution to help destroy both. After all,

http://www.wired.com/dangerroom/2012...es-on-us-soil/

[Flippper]

From on of Ragnarok's excellent links, I noticed right away the Nazi propaganda, even down to terminlolgy. I also heard a local Border Patrol agent use the term "Homeland" in place of the United States of America.

Public Intelligence

The Federal Bureau of Investigation, Department of Homeland Security and fusion centers around the country are warning that terrorists are interested in using fire as a weapon, particularly in the form of large-scale wildfires near densely populated areas. A newly released DHS report states that for more than a decade “international terrorist groups and associated individuals have expressed interest in using fire as a tactic against the Homeland to cause economic loss, fear, resource depletion, and humanitarian hardship.” [sounds exactly like the goals of politicians today and I suspect DHS has a hand in Inspire-Flip] The report notes that the tactical use of fire as a weapon [will DHS begin tracking lighter and match purchase now or have they already been doing this?-Flip] is “inexpensive and requires limited technical expertise” and “materials needed to use fire as a weapon are common and easily obtainable, making preoperational activities difficult to detect and plot disruption and apprehension challenging for law enforcement.”

Though law enforcement has been warning of the use of fire as a weapon for years, the recent fervor over wildfires as a potential terrorist tactic is largely due to Inspire magazine, a slick online publication that is reportedly produced by Al-Qaeda [an invention of people within our own government from what I understand-Flip] in the Arabian Peninsula. The most recent issue of Inspire featured multiple articles on the use of wildfire as a weapon in jihad, including a complete guide on creating an “ember bomb” that would likely have a “high failure rate when manufactured and utilized by untrained or inexperienced personnel” according to the DHS report. The FBI has also separately warned about the latest issue of Inspire, which “instructs the audience to look for two necessary factors for a successful wildfire, which are dryness and high winds to help spread the fire. Specific fire conditions that are likely to spread fire quickly are Pinewood, crownfires (where the trees and branches are close together) [I fought wildfires, a crown fire is when a tree 'crowns' even a green tree will go up like a torch and when it crowns it's like lighting a match head-Flip], and steep slope fires (fire spreads faster going up a slope).” California and Montana are specifically listed in Inspire as potential targets.

How do you stop a person that wants to carry out a wildfire attack? The DHS report includes a list of potentially suspicious activities associated with the terrorist wildfire threat. Are you conducting “unusual research” related to weather, dry seasons, winds, or types of forests and vegetation? Have you done online research related to historical cases of arson? Or maybe you “conduct reconnaissance” in “remote, wooded areas, especially at night” [All campers will be interrogated and harrassed, WA state just implemented a $30 a year permit to drive into all state forests so they know who you are-Flip]? According to DHS, you might be a part of a terrorist plot to start wildfires all around the country. [I'd add, if you're a Christian, own a Bible, own a gun, have a Ron Paul sticker on your bumper you might be a "terrorist", meaning any person or group who disagrees with the dictatorship in office-Flip] Of course, you could just be interested in nature, studying for a criminology exam or lost in a rural area at night. The report makes it clear that many of the suspicious activities listed are “constitutionally protected” and should not be considered alone as sufficient cause for investigation. However, the list ends with an ominous warning: “Preoperational activities of violent extremists in the Homeland might be difficult to detect. Agencies with local or state oversight should monitor events that might be linked to a larger terrorist operation. Suspicious activities should be reported and shared immediately.”

Americans hang on after recession claims wealth
Looking back, the financial lives many Americans enjoyed until just a few years ago can seem like a mirage.

On a suburban cul-de-sac northwest of Atlanta, Michael and Patricia Jackson are struggling to keep a house worth $100,000 less than they owe. In a small town in West Virginia, Michael Bobic, who last year lost his job as a college professor, sells Star Trek collectibles on eBay to get by.

Their voices and those of many others tell the story of a country that, for all the economic turmoil of the past few years, continues to believe things will get better. But until it does, families are trying to hang on to what they've got left.

"Lenin is said to have declared that the best way to destroy the Capitalist System was to debauch the currency. By a continuing process of inflation, governments can confiscate, secretly and unobserved, an important part of the wealth of their citizens. By this method they not only confiscate, but they confiscate arbitrarily; and, while the process impoverishes many, it actually enriches some."
