Zombies: fictional characters, right?

Let's hope so!

Because a number of bizarre incidents in recent years have people wondering if they could be for real.

Naked, oblivious and out of control people going on the attack - with some still resisting arrest after being shot and tasered. The following video contains some reports of 'zombie attacks' so far this year...

Saudi Arabia's secret uprising

This documentary was filmed and produced by Journeyman Pictures. Visit their YouTube channel or website to watch more award winning films.


In Saudi Arabia's oil-rich Eastern province a 3-year uprising has been raging, hidden from the world. With unprecedented access, this report explores the growing protest movement - the biggest in Saudi history.

In scenes reminiscent of Libya, Egypt and Bahrain, masked protesters fill the streets, fling rocks and chant "martyrdom is better than oppression" as police bullets fly. In the Shia-dominated Eastern region of Qatif, there has been growing resentment that despite "standing on top of oil fields that feed the world", local communities suffer poverty, sectarian discrimination and no political freedom. Figureheads of the protests have been added to government wanted lists, been arrested and several have been killed in dubious circumstances.

Ireland: Mass grave 'filled to the brim with tiny bones and skulls' shows how we cherish children

"Cherish all the children equally" is a defining Irish shibboleth, enshrined in the Proclamation of Independence. It is one of our highest aspirations and, like most of the things we Irish hold dearest, it is build on a solid foundation of utter hypocrisy.

Cherish all the children? By all available evidence, we Irish don't even like children.

In the past week, a horror story has unfolded. Eight hundred children are buried in an unmarked mass grave in Tuam, Co Galway, in a disused septic tank on the former grounds of an institution known locally as "The Home". The Bon Secours nuns operated "The Home" between 1926 and 1961 and over the years housed thousands of unmarried mothers and their "illegitimate" children.

The tireless work of historian Catherine Corless has revealed that 796 children, the oldest nine years, the youngest two days old, are in that tank. Causes of death include "malnutrition, measles, convulsions, tuberculosis, gastroenteritis and pneumonia". The tank is described as "filled to the brim with tiny bones and skulls".

Comment: Our western collectives outward declarations of love and relations to our children may have changed over the last 80 years, but really how much do we protect our children and our communities children? Since then communities have been divided and phased out, and we deposit our children in schools which suck them dry from imagination and teaches them to be emotionally and intellectually dependent on a parasite system. To boot they are fed degenerate diets, mind crumbling meds and stupefying entertainment. And that's not even mentioning the large share of children being physically molested at home or through pedophile networks. Ironically, Father Flanagan's 'Boy's Town' was later to become part of such a pedophile network, covered up by the same god-awful church.

No, it still doesn't seem like we learned to care.

Monsanto's maize: High risks, few rewards for Mexico

Why is Monsanto interested in Mexico's maize market?

I'd come to Mexico to investigate the ongoing controversy over the proposed introduction of genetically modified (GM) maize into the birthplace of this important global food crop. The issue was hot, because last October a Mexican judge had issued an injunction halting all experimental and commercial planting of GM maize, a process that was well underway in six northern states. The ruling cited the need for precaution to ensure that Mexico's rich diversity of maize varieties were protected from inadvertent "gene flow" from GM maize. (See my earlier article on the injunction.)

As I began to investigate this most controversial of biotech initiatives, the question that most puzzled me was: why anyone in Mexico thinks the country needs anything that transgenic maize has to offer?

Monsanto, of course, had an answer to that question. I met with a group of company officials in their high-rise offices in Mexico City's transnational business district of Santa Fe. They offered their "Vision 2020", in which transgenic maize is key to feeding the world. In Mexico, they argued, it would help double Mexican maize production, reduce persistent rural poverty among the country's small-scale maize farmers, restore the country's self-sufficiency in its key food staple and reduce the negative environmental impacts of maize farming. They even used the term "food sovereignty" to describe their goal for Mexico. This was more than a vision; this was a hallucination.

Death toll rises to at least 74 from General Motors' faulty ignition switches

The death toll in General Motors' faulty ignition switch is at least 74, according to a Reuters analysis of government fatal-crash data.

GM claims faulty cars are to blame for 13 deaths only, but the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says the toll is higher.

Such accidents also occurred at a higher rate in the GM cars than in top competitors' models, Reuters said after searching the Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS), a national database of crash information submitted by local law-enforcement agencies, for single-car frontal collisions where no front air bags deployed and the driver or
front-seat passenger was killed.

The frequency of such accidents in the Ion was nearly six times that of the Corolla and twice that of the Focus, according to the analysis. The Ion had 5.9 such fatal crashes per 100,000 cars sold, followed by the Cobalt, with 4.1, the Ford Focus with 2.9, the Civic with 1.6, and the Corolla with 1.0.

Comment: A fine of $35 million is merely a little slap on the wrist. They knew about it since 2004 and most likely all the way back to 2001, but did nothing until February 2014. That is simply criminel and only goes to show that psychopaths care nought about human beings.

Tens of thousands across Spain have taken to the streets to demand a referendum on whether the country should keep its monarchy or be proclaimed a republic following the abdication of King Juan Carlos I.

The biggest rally, held in Madrid's Puerta del Sol square, united anti-monarchist activists under the 'Monarchy No Thanks' campaign.

Thousands of people carrying Republican flags flooded the capital hours after the 76-year-old monarch announced his resignation in favor of his 46 year-old son. Spain's 15-M social movement launched the proposal for a protest against the monarchy and the declaration of a republic.

Canadian academics conclude holy reputation of Mother Teresa nothing but hype

Mother Teresa

Canadian academics trawled through 96 per cent of all originally researched literature on the Catholic icon and concluded that her reputation as one of the holiest women of the twentieth century was the product of hype.

Researchers allege missing funds for humanitarian work and homes for the poor that did not offer the medical care they required, leaving many to die.

Serge Larivée, a researcher from the University of Montreal, said: "Given the parsimonious management of Mother Theresa's works, one may ask where the millions of dollars for the poorest of the poor have gone?"

Christopher Hitchens is cited in the report and Hitch spoke out loudly against Mother Teresa in 2003. Here's a taste:

"MT was not a friend of the poor. She was a friend of poverty. She said that suffering was a gift from God. She spent her life opposing the only known cure for poverty, which is the empowerment of women and the emancipation of them from a livestock version of compulsory reproduction.

A 102-year-old Syrian man was shot dead while sleeping, along with his entire family, according to a new report of atrocities committed by the merciless ISIL jihadist group fighting the forces of Bashar Assad.

The radical rebels from the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) also murdered the man's son, his grandson, his great-granddaughter, and her mother, AFP reported, citing the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights. The killing took place as ISIL attacked the village of Zanuba in Hama governorate.

"Some members of the family were burned alive, others killed in their sleep," the Observatory added.

The family was from the minority Alawite group - an offshoot of Shia Islam, to which Syrian President Bashar Assad belongs.

Comment: And yet, the US and its allies arm and protect these thugs.

Almost 800 people were reported to have been killed in Iraqi violence last month, two-thirds of the victims being civilians. Meanwhile, monitoring groups put the figure at over 1,000 deaths among the civil population alone.

Of the 799 people killed, 603 were civilians and 196 were members of the Iraqi security forces, according to the United Nations numbers released on Sunday.

The country has been hit by a wave of violent attacks since April 2013. Over the past year, Sunni Islamist insurgents have been overtaking territories and regaining momentum in Iraq, and many have fallen victim to their attacks.

Hunger leads to revolution: World Bank warns of food riots

food riot
A new report issued by the World Bank (1) warns that food prices are skyrocketing globally, with wheat up 18 percent and corn up 12 percent this quarter. Ukraine, one of the largest wheat exporters in the world, has suffered a 73 percent increase in domestic wheat costs. Argentina has seen wheat prices skyrocket 70 percent.

According to the World Bank, these price increases have been caused primarily by three factors: 1) Sharply higher demand for food in China, 2) U.S. drought conditions that hammered wheat production, and 3) unrest in Ukraine due to the near state of war with Russia.
