Fukushima, Japan: Truth leaks after waste, as Diaichi Nuclear meltdown continues, Plant owners release 45 tons of radioactive material into the Pacific Ocean, heading for the West Coast of the USA. Predictions already assert a 14,000 death Cancer Spike. Even worse, a debris field the size of California, with TV's, Cars and body parts is also making its way eastward, perhaps 1 year away. Plant owners claim they achieved a "Cold Shutdown" December 16th. Since it has been proven that they lied about everything since the beginning, they have zero credibility now.

Pakistan & Afghanistan: With Allies like Galani and Karzai, is America's so-called "War on Terror" simply doomed? In an "accidental" Shoot Out with Paki Troops, killing 24, injuring scores, NATO now jeopardizes the entire US Effort in the region as Kayani exposes/closes secret Drone Base, (withdrawal under way) & Afghan Supply Route via Khyber Pass in retaliation for what it asserts is a pre-meditated strike. The Pentagon claims it was return fire against the wrong target. Read AP here UPDATE: Gilani rumor now published claims he has asserted the Army is prepared to retake power.

"Up with Chris Hayes" exposed a $850k Contract being pitched for fund an effort to employ negative media tactics and to undermine OWS

Long-Range Sound-US Taxpayers fund weapons used on themselves illegally by Military regularly violating Posse' Comittatus. DHS with Pentagon partners have deployed Military-Grade "Tear Gas" (a euphemism for Chemical Weapons) to control and disperse protesters & dissenters. Some canisters have become dangerous projectiles, causing head injuries. These Iraq-tested crowd pleasers, including the high-frequency sound machines, all labeled "Made in USA" just keep showing up in Cairo's Tahrir Square too, held up for cameras to zoom. One message, we offer the promise of Freedom, the other message? When "Freedom" becomes sloppy, we sell the Chemicals to control the pesky citizens.
