Obamacare failure: Only 6 people enroll in Obamacare website in first 24 hours

Image
For 31 days now, the Obama administration has been telling us that Americans by the millions are visiting the new health insurance website, despite all its problems.

But no one in the administration has been willing to tell us how many policies have been purchased, and this may be the reason: CBS News has learned enrollments got off to an incredibly slow start.

Early enrollment figures are contained in notes from twice-a-day "war room" meetings convened within the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services after the website failed on Oct. 1. They were turned over in response to a document request from the House Oversight Committee.

The website launched on a Tuesday. Publicly, the government said there were 4.7 million unique visits in the first 24 hours. But at a meeting Wednesday morning, the war room notes say "six enrollments have occurred so far."

They were with BlueCross BlueShield North Carolina and Kansas City, CareSource and Healthcare Service Corporation.

Glenn Greenwald: NSA stores data to target any citizen at any time

Image
The current revelations on the NSA's spying are just the tip of the iceberg and affect "almost every country in the world," said Glenn Greenwald. He stressed the NSA stores data for "as long as it can," so they can target a citizen whenever they want.

Glenn Greenwald, the man behind the reports on the NSA global spy program, spoke to El Mundo journalist German Aranda and stressed that the US espionage activities went much further than just Europe.

"There are a lot of countries, and journalists in a lot of different countries, who have been asking for stories and to work on documents for a long time," Greenwald said. He added that he was working as fast as possible to "make sure that all of these documents get reported in every single country there are documents for, which is most countries in the world."

Shedding light on the NSA's motives in compiling metadata on citizens, he said the spy organization's main aim was to store the information to be able to dip into it whenever necessary.

U.S. debt jumps a record $328 billion in one day - debt now over $17 trillion

Image
On Thursday, the United States debt spiked $328 billion, setting a new record. Our debt has now officially surpassed $17 trillion.

The previous high of $238 billion was set two years ago.

The Washington Times reports that the sudden increase can be attributed to the government's "replenishing its stock of 'extraordinary measures' - federal funds it borrowed from over the last five months as it tried to avoid bumping into the debt ceiling."

Since May, the federal debt barely increased, staying right around $16.7 trillion. But Congress's recent deal, which went into effect on Wednesday, completely suspended the government's borrowing limit.

When the debt ceiling increased on Wednesday, the Treasury Department was subsequently able to refund pensions and programs that had been unfunded since May.

Israeli planes strike Syrian military base, U.S. official says


Israeli warplanes struck a military base near the Syrian port city of Latakia this week, an Obama administration official told CNN on Thursday.

An explosion at a missile storage site in the area was reported in the Middle Eastern press, but an attack has not been confirmed by the Israeli government.

The target, according to the Obama administration official, was missiles and related equipment the Israelis felt might be transferred to the Lebanon-based militant group Hezbollah. The official declined to be identified because of the sensitive nature of the information.

U.S. federal court blocks NYPD 'stop-and-frisk' ruling, says it was 'unconstitutional', removes judge from case

Federal court says Shira Scheindlin showed appearance of bias when she ruled that stop-and-frisk was unconstitutional.

A federal appeals court has blocked a judge's ruling that demanded changes to the New York police department's controversial stop-and-frisk policy and ordered she be removed from the case.

In a victory for the outgoing mayor of New York, Michael Bloomberg, the court said Shira Scheindlin's ruling, in which she declared the practice to be unconstitutional, would be stayed pending the outcome of an appeal by the city.

U.S. official confirms Israel attack on Syria


Comment: Imagine the outcry if Syria had attacked Israel under the suspicion that it was training and providing weapons to the so-called 'Syrian rebels'.

In this twisted world, some countries have a license to kill and Israel is at the top of the list.

The Jewish Chronicle reports today that music mogul Simon Cowell has boosted the Israeli Army with a sizeable donation at a gala dinner in Los Angeles.

The "X Factor" chief gave a sum thought to be in the region of £150,000 at the annual fundraising event hosted by the American Friends of the IDF.

The event was hosted by ultra Zionist Power Rangers creator Haim Saban, who pledged to donate $1 million if Mr Cowell joined him to sing the show's theme song, "Go, Go Power Rangers".

Mr Cowell did break into song, but quickly said he would make a donation himself if Mr Saban allowed him to stop.

Israeli lawyers group Shurat HaDin exposed as Mossad proxy

The director of a supposedly independent group of Israeli lawyers privately admitted to a US embassy official it acted as a proxy for the Israeli government, a leaked US embassy cable shows.

Nitsana Darshan-Leitner confided in 2007 that her Shurat HaDin group in the past "took direction ... on which cases to pursue" and still "receives evidence" from the Mossad and from Israel's National Security Council.

This is in direct contradiction to public claims, such as on its website which states it is a "fully independent" organization "unaffiliated with any political party or governmental body."

The group has fought several high-profile "lawfare" cases against Palestine solidarity activists around the world in recent years.

Mossad lead

The leaked cable was unearthed by lobbying transparency outfit SpinWatch in an article earlier this month. It was one of the US embassy cables leaked by former US soldier Chelsea (formerly Bradley) Manning in 2010 and published by WikiLeaks in 2011.

The cable's author quotes Darshan-Leitner as explaining the government's rationale for using a proxy rather than going to local courts directly: "The National Security Council (NSC) legal office saw the use of civil courts as a way to do things that they are not authorized to do."

"Among her contacts, Leitner listed Udi Levy at the NSC and Uzi Beshaya at the Mossad, both key [US] Embassy contacts on anti-terrorist finance cooperation," wrote the unnamed official who apparently authored the cable after meeting with Leitner in 2007.

The NSC is an Israeli military planning body led by generals and other senior military figures - including top Mossad figures.

At the time of the cable was written, the NSC's head was Ilan Mizrahi, a former deputy chief of Mossad.

Nitsana Darshan-Leitner and Shurat HaDin did not reply to an email sent yesterday seeking comment on the issues raised in this article.

Modern slavery: Gullah-Geechee people of Sapelo Island, Georgia being forced off by 600% property tax hike

Slave descendents fight tax hikes
It's a culture struggling to survive. Fewer than 50 people -- all descendants of slaves -- fear they may soon be taxed out of the property their families have owned since the days of slavery.

They are the Gullah-Geechee people of Sapelo Island off Georgia's coast, near Savannah. This small, simple community is finding itself embroiled in a feud with local officials over a sudden, huge increase in property assessments that are raising property taxes as much as 600% for some.

Many say the increase could force them to sell their ancestral properties.

"That's part of the American history. That's part of what built this country," said Charles Hall, 79, a retired U.S. Air Force colonel who was born under a midwife's care in the same home he lives in today.
