N.Korea seeks $75 Trillion from U.S.

Cash-strapped North Korea has demanded the United States pay almost $US65 trillion ($75 trillion) in compensation for six decades of hostility. The official North Korean news agency, KCNA, says the cost of the damage done by the US since the peninsula was divided in 1945 is estimated at $US64.96 trillion. The compensation call comes on the eve of the 60th anniversary of the start of the 1950-1953 Korean War. KCNA said the figure includes $US26.1 trillion arising from US “atrocities” which left more than 5 million North Koreans dead, wounded, kidnapped or missing. The agency also claims 60 years of US sanctions have caused a loss of $US13.7 trillion by 2005, while property losses were estimated at $US16.7 trillion. The agency said North Koreans have “the justifiable right” to receive the compensation for their blood. It said the committee's calculation did not include the damage North Korea had suffered from sanctions after its first nuclear test in 2006.

U.S. and Brazil Lead Google’s Top 10 Censorship List. It is news to me, what about you?

U.S. and Brazil lead Google’s Top 10 Censorship List. Yes, you read that right. Brazil and the U.S. are the respective #1 and #2 on Google’s Top 10 Censorship List. China is hardly the world’s only Internet censor. According to information released April 20, 2010 which excludes China and several other countries, Brazil and the US lead the world in the number of requests for user data and for the removal of content. Keep an Eye on Big Brother To find more information reports about government requests for information and content removal, you can contact government independent organizations such as Chilling Effects and the Open Net Initiative. http://idaconcpts.com/2010/04/22/u-s-and-brazil-lead-googles-top-10-censorship-l… =rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=u-s-and-brazil-lead-googles-top-10-censorship-list added by: MotherForTruth

Futurama Returns Because It "Was Too Good to Die"

In what may be the most anticipated animated return to television since Family Guy, Futurama finally debuts brand new episodes on Comedy Central (Thursday, 10/9c). Watch full episodes of Futurama “In my heart of hearts, I knew this show was too good to die,” says Billy West, who actually sounds like an older version of Fry, the character he voices on the animated series. “The amount of times the show has been revived from the dead is unbelievable. I love working on zombie Futurama,” jokes John DiMaggio, who plays Bender. There was a moment, though, when it seemed Futurama would be up-ended after a salary negotiation snag last summer. Fortunately, the core cast is returning, and Katey Sagal insists it was “just one of those things that happen” in Hollywood. added by: lordsbassman

The New World Order is REAL….and your an idiot if you think otherwise!

http://www.documentarywire.com/invisible-empire-a-new-world-order-defined I often see on this site, and in the world in general that people who show any lack of trust for the workings of our government are portrayed as right-wing lunatics, and tin foil hat wearing loons. I am not an ultra conservative. I don't even own a gun. I voted for Gore, and Kerry. ( In my defense how could you look at Bush and Kerry side by side, and hear them speak and think the little guy was the one best suited to run our nation?) I'm a man with a beautiful wife and two even more beautiful children. All I want is a world where they have a chance at happiness. That said, the term “Novus Ordo Seclorem” means New Order of the Age or World. It is printed on the back of your dollar bill, beneath a pyramid capped by the eye of Horus. (Some of you smart ass bible bangers can tell me what relevance a pagan symbol has sharing the dollar bill with “In God We Trust”? But that's another layer of the lie.) The term new world order is synonymous with One World Government. Simply put there are politicians, and business people, and intellectuals from all over the globe who believe the only solution to the coming problems of our times is a One world Government. Rather than debate me on the merits of what I am saying, I can point you too a source that will give you around two hours of video footage of our statesmen and leaders professing their desire for a New World Order. In their own words, from their mouth to your ears. People like Obama, Clinton, H.W. Bush and jr., Bill Gates, Tony Blair, and our patron saint AL GORE, just to mention a few of the hundred or so dignitaries filmed professing their desire for a One World Government. After which You may be able to debate me on whether you think it's a good thing or an evil one, but you won't be able to tell me it's a theory. It's as real as cancer. The problem I find with this philosophy is that it requires We the People of the United States to blend our values with those of say China. How do we find a middle ground on Civil Liberties with China? Why should we? http://www.documentarywire.com/invisible-empire-a-new-world-order-defined added by: DefKid
