Media Issues, Corporate Power:

Mass Media Blacks Out the Facts: The Chief of Staff of The New York Times & other U.S. media personalities admit that their job is to lie & manipulate public opinion.

Advertising: We are the real product - the primary purpose of the mass media is to sell audiences to advertisers. Brief excerpts from the book "Deadly Persuasion".

Corporate Sponsored News? Much of the "news" we are presented is actually Public Relations videos supplied by large corporations. News broadcasts are now little more than fancy advertisements.

The Music Industry Scam: Expose on how major record labels can make lots of money while the artists make little or none, or even go into debt. Authored by Steve Albini, a well-known artist and producer of many well-known artists like Nirvana, Pixies and the Breeders.

It seems Australia is 90% foreign owned by transnational corporations who pay little or no tax.

Medical, Health and Pharmaceutical Drugs Scams, Fraud & Damages Exposed (inc. vivisection, animal research issues):

Note: the following set of articles are external links to our sibling site www.MedicineKillsMillions.com and open in a new window.

Why do Pharmaceutical Drugs Injure & Kill so many people? Are WE the real guinea-pigs? Medical journals report that pharmaceutical drugs kill over 100,000 people each year in the USA. This article explains how drug companies use unscientific tests to make their products look "safe" for the public. (Download PDF version)

Myths of Modern Medicine: The increase in the human lifespan - due to drugs or social reforms? This article shows that the decrease of infectious disease, the decrease in the death-rate and the increase in the human lifespan in the industrialised countries (during the 19th and 20th centuries) was due to social reforms (better hygiene, nutrition, sanitation etc.) and was not due to pharmaceutical drugs or immunisation. In fact, the contribution of drug-based medicine was almost non-existant. (Download PDF version)

What is the Hidden Cause of Environmental Pollution? (PDF) Article about how we are being poisoned by environmental pollution declared “safe” via unreliable safety tests. "Today's environmental laws are based on unscientific data … that protect industry and allow the existence of toxicants of all sorts in our food, air, water, home, and workplace."

Is most Cancer Research a Giant Fraud? Billions of dollars have been spent and cancer rates continue to rise; leading researchers state that our money is being thrown down the drain of useless self-perpetuating research.This applies to most other medical research charities too. (Download PDF version)

Doctors Against Vivisection on Scientific & Medical Grounds (vivisection = medical research using live animals/humans). These doctors debunk the pro-viviseciton propaganda of the medical industry. (Download PDF version)

The International Congress Of Doctors Against Vivisection Quotes from doctors, scientists and ex-animal researchers who speak out to demonstrate that animal research (vivisection) is not scientific, retards medicine and causes many medical errors, human injuries and deaths.

Myths of Modern Medicine: Animal Research (vivisection) had nothing to do with these medical advances. In this article Doctor M. Beddow Bayly refutes the standard lies of the pro-animal research lobby. He shows how medical progress came about through human studies and observation and not through vivisection.

Myths of Modern Medicine: Fallacies about Animal Research (vivisection). In this article Doctor Charles Bell Taylor refutes the standard claims of the pro-animal research lobby. He shows how medical progress came about through human studies and observation and not through vivisection.

Myths of Modern Medicine: Animal Research and Surgery (surgical training). Does practising on animals make surgeons better? No. In fact, as these leading surgeons explain, quite the opposite. Were the advances in surgery due to animal research? No. As these leading surgeons explain. (Download PDF version)

Why Animal Research Continues: (PDF) Expose of fraudulent animal rights & welfare groups & their alliance with the Pharmaceutical-Vivisection Industry. This article shows how these groups are financially in bed with the drug industry, promote pro-vivisection propaganda and help suppress the truth about medicine and the human damages and deaths due to the unreliable results of unscientific animal experiments.

A Critical look at Animal Experimentation: PDF article from the Medical Research Modernisation Committee.

The Great Animal Rights and Animal Welfare Fraud: More on how the fraudulent animal rights/welfare/liberation organisations lie to the public, on behalf of the drug industry, in order to perpetuate vivisection.

Why Eat Meat? How to greatly improve your health, fight environmental degradation, 3rd world famine and an inhumane industry with one simple lifestyle choice.

Pet food is junk food that injures and kills pets. In this short article Veterinarian Dr Tom Lonsdale exposes how pet food slowly poisons pets. He also describes why the mass-media, veterinary associations, zoos and animal welfare leagues keep silent about this: they accept money from the makers of pet foods.

Nutrasweet/Aspartame/Spoonful are poisons: present in many common foods and drinks, linked to Multiple Sclerosis, Diabetes, upsetting serotonin levels (ie. mental disorders), seizures, weight gain. It was approved after major conflicts of interest between F.D.A bureaucrats and the chemical companies they are supposed to regulate.

The Water-Fluoridation Hoax (challenges the belief that water-fluoridation is harmless and prevents tooth decay)

The Lethal Dangers of the psychiatric drugs Prozac and Ritalin.

Not Enough Food in the World? Rubbish! The genetic engineering propaganda about solving food shortages is a fraud. There has been more than enough food in the world, or at least, the means to make it so, for quite some time. But companies stand to profit greatly via patents on genetically engineered food and life forms.

Vaccination - adverse side-effects cover-up? Details how governments do not keep statistics on the damages caused by immunisation.

Measles Vaccination - some government pro-vaccine claims examined and exposed as incorrect.

In Vitro Fertilisation - a Scientific Sham? Plus a reply to a complaint letter about the article.

Doctors expose the myths and dangers of vaccination/immunization. They explain how vaccines do not protect and how they cause serious illnesses. Also, a contract for your doctor to sign before vaccination, in order that they reimburse you for any damages.

Genetically Engineered Food - Myths & Realities. Several excerpts and links to articles which detail the flaws in the pro-GE propaganda that is spread by the companies and media who stand to profit from it. Also, a link to Farming Solutions: a website that presents real solutions to hunger and poverty.

Politics, Arms Trade, War:

Behind the "War on Terrorism". This article reveals that the September 11 2001 attacks, like those on Pearl Harbour, were not unexpected "surprise" attacks. U.S. officials knew about them, perhaps, even involved with them. The article examines who has the most to gain from the attacks: the military-oil-industrial complex and dictatorial forces in the U.S.A. Also, that the U.S. military had planned attacks on Afghanistan since early 2001. The prize of Afghanistan is that it provides access to the world's largest known untapped reserves of oil, the Caspian Basin in Central Asia. Lots More!

Afghanistan Taliban : Made by the USA. This article reveals how the CIA and United States Government armed and funded the Taliban regime into power in Afghanistan. Also, how they armed and financed Osama bin Laden. The Afghani people had the Taliban imposed on them.

Australia's draconian "terror" laws discussion board: check out http://www.topica.com/lists/TerrorLaws/read for regular news and information.

Police State U.S.A.: On the increasing trend of locking up people and throwing away the key without a trial (excerpt: "This is really an astounding assertion of authority," said David Cole, professor of law at Georgetown University. "It's not just that you have no right to a lawyer; it's that you have no right to even have a hearing ... If that is true, then there is really no limit to the president's power to label US citizens as bad people, and then have them held in military custody indefinitely.")

Questions that probably won't be asked in the House of Representatives (USA), about the Iraq War. Dr. Ron Paul MD, a Republican member of Congress from Texas, asks some very revealing questions about what this war is really about (U.S. Oil companies want control of the oil fields?), how Iraq isn't a military threat to the USA, how intelligence hasn't found a link between Iraq and terrorism, how the U.S.A. risks confirming Arab claims that the U.S. is the world's leading rogue state, how the U.S. and Britain supported Saddam Hussein in the 1980s and 1990s (!) and much more.

Prime Minister John Howard's Broken Election promise - Cutting Disability Pensions: This short article reveals the Prime Minister's pre-election promises to NOT cut disability pensions. Now he claims he has a mandate to cut them!

Surviving police state surveillance technologies. Brief examination of how to protect our freedoms against the police state surveillance technologies being imposed world-wide. Is an evenly "transparent society" the answer?

Trading with the Enemy - World War 2 arms trade between U.S. companies and the Nazis.

East Timor - background to the West-sponsored Indonesian-invasion and genocide.

1998 Federal Election : Australia's flawed electoral system favours the Major Parties - Australia has an (distorted) electoral system that declares the wrong parties the winners, and leaves large numbers of Australians (over 20%) unrepresented in Parliament. Senator Meg Lees explains...

Tax Systems - discusses one of the alternatives to the Goods & Services Tax that was imposed on Australians in 2000.

2001-02 "Anti-Terrorism" Legislation: will Australia become a police state? It's up to you to decide: The Senate of the Australian Government is set to vote on new draconian "anti-terrorism" legislation that will give the Government incredible and totally unnecessary police state powers. It means the Attorney General/Government can ban any organisation they like and that if you are a member of such an organisation you can receive up to 25 years in jail. It means that you, without even being suspected of being a terrorist, could be detained for up to 48 hours (repeatedly) without charge, without access to a lawyer and without the right to silence (not answering questions will result in 5 years jail). As history shows time and time again, such despotic powers will be used by future governments to suppress vocal opposition groups. To protect Australia's democracy, it is vital you contact Labor Party Senators straight away to voice your concerns - You CAN help to stop this if you act NOW. The e-mail addresses of all Australian politicians are available here. This was originally to have been voted on by the Senate on May 14, then in June, but due to a large amount of protest from the Australian public at the last minute, which was greatly helped by our mass e-mail campaign, they delayed the Senate vote. See the link below for the latest on this issue...

Democracy in the U.S.A? Keep Dreaming - How George W Bush duped the public (about his vote-rigging, oil connections with Saudis etc.) & how the American media buried these stories: an interview with Greg Palast, a highly respected investigative reporter (BBC, Washington Post, Salon, the Guardian) who has broken several key stories about the George Bush family antics. Maybe you've already heard about how Florida Republicans purged Democrats from the voter rolls a couple months before the election, and maybe you already know that Bush barred CIA and FBI from investigating the bin Laden family.

Refugees & Australia: for a quick overview of how the Australian Government demonises and mistreats refugees and how the mass-media scapegoats them, download the Acrobat PDF leaflet "Case for Freeing the Refugees". If all you've relied on so far are government and mass-media reports, you'll (possibly) be very shocked and very ashamed at what's going on

Wilhelm Reich: In our opinion, if anyone has come close to figuring out the human condition, it was Wilhelm Reich. He led one of the most fantastic lives of the century. His influence has been felt by almost everyone in modern Western society whether you know it or not. His findings underlie some of the most important changes in thinking & culture over the past 80 years and into the future. He was put on the death lists of Hitler and Stalin. After he died in a U.S. jail in 1957 (on trumped up charges), his books were declared illegal and burnt in incinerators by U.S. court order (the only such case in U.S. history). The Establishment was & still is dead-scared of the theories and findings of Reich. So are most people. Why? Because he discovered the basis of human neuroses, why we act like irrational sheep, and how we could be free if only most people actually wanted to be. http://www.wilhelmreich.com

Waco cover-up: Firstly, on a personal note, I've been appaulled by the "lefties" and "anarchists" i've known who have revealed themselves as fascists of a sort by showing no concern about what happened at Waco. What happened to those people, yes, even with their wacky religious beliefs, is a threat and warning to everyone with non-Establishment lifestyles and viewpoints. For a detailed & matter-of-fact expose of what really happened at Waco, Texas in 1993 when approximately 80 members of the Branch Davidian religious group were killed visit this detailed web-site. See the claims of the US government & media examined & exposed. A quote from the site: "From the evidence we have examined so far, we hypothesize that the story of the Waco Holocaust is a story of at least three crimes: 1. Mass murder; 2. Destruction of evidence; and 3. Fabrication of evidence and perjury..." by US government agencies. Also challenged is the 1999 film called "Waco: Rules of Engagement" which purports to show the suppressed side of the story, but leaves a lot unexamined. Was Waco merely a test exercise for an emerging USA military-police state? Who knows! Perhaps. Nevertheless, many of the claims and evidence on this web-site have since been quietly acknowledged by the U.S. Administration. At the very least, it seems that the Waco siege and fire was probably a complete bungle by the FBI, a mass murder by the U.S. govt. and not a mass-suicide at all. http://www.monumental.com/SkyWriter/WacoMuseum/
