US Cop Rapes 20-Year Old Woman At Gunpoint While On Duty
Boynton Beach police officer has been arrested after he allegedly raped a 20-year-old woman at gunpoint while he was on duty, police said. Officer Stephen J. Maiorino, an eight-year veteran of the
department who was in an episode of the TV show “Cops” in 2010, turned
himself in to the Palm Beach County Jail on Thursday. He is now on unpaid administrative leave and “will be fired,” Police Chief Jeffrey Katz said.

While that post was bad enough, it was followed up just days later with something far, far worse in the piece: Video of the Day – Watch as 8 Police Officers Fire 46 Shots and Kill a Homeless Man in Broad Daylight. In that article, I warned:

Gazans Protest Against JSIL’s Closure Of Al-Aqsa Mosque
Palestinians in the Gaza Strip have protested against JSIL's (Israel) latest decision to close the al-Aqsa Mosque.
JSIL Shill UK BANNED Press TV: Demonstrators came together in the besieged Gaza Strip on Friday to show their support for fellow Palestinians in the occupied West Bank, who are under security lockdown by the Tel Aviv regime.
The protest in the Gaza Strip comes as tensions are mounting in al-Quds (Jerusalem) after the Israeli regime imposed restrictions on Palestinian worshippers.
Israeli authorities have deployed nearly 1,000 security forces across al-Quds.
Israel closed the al-Aqsa Mosque compound on Thursday to Muslim worshippers after an assassination attempt by 32-year-old Palestinian, Moataz Hejazi, against Yehuda Glick on October 29.
Glick, an American-born Israeli settler, was shot and wounded by gunmen on a motorcycle as he left a conference at the Menachem Begin Heritage Center. Israeli officials claim Hejazi was responsible for the attempted killing of Yehuda Glick. Hejazi had served 11 years in prison before his release in 2012.
Mahmoud Abbas, the president of the Palestinian national unity government, has warned that Israel’s move amounts to a “declaration of war.”

How Being Back On Twitter Has Warmed My Heart And Hurt My Head @AnikaRoseAus #GamerGate #womenagainstfeminism
By Anika Rose: Last week I decided to go back on Twitter (@AnikaRoseAus) largely because I have been a games enthusiast my whole
life, starting from a Nintendo as a toddler, so I wanted to get in on
the action with gamers supporting #GamerGate. Other reasons included me
seeing Twitter as a great platform to connect with others who support
the Men’s Rights Movement, to gather content for my blog, and to have my
say about how bullshit I believe feminism actually is.
Well, I have gotten what I desired—and them some, and some more—and it just keeps coming!
First, I would like to say a massive THANK YOU to all the people who are following me, the people I have met and now communicate with regularly, and especially to the people manning accounts that spread an invaluable amount of documentation about how ignored men’s issues are and call out feminist hypocrisy and lies.

Cowed By BBC Fem-Cops Humphrys Holds Up Saudis As Liberal Beacon
By Kathy Gyngell: The BBC just can’t help itself. Impervious to the criticism that
Evan Davis’s non-interview with the verbally incontinent Russell Brand
drew from all quarters, this morning brought forth another example of the BBC’s trademark grovelling - when it comes to matters PC that is.
This time it was feminism’s turn to win the BBC’s special attention
award – the one shared between the proponents of those well established
anti-capitalist causes: climate change alarmism and anti-politics
agendas.
Just case any of us reading the saner national newspapers were lucky enough to have missed the latest complaints of the equality fascists, no worries, the BBC was waiting to oblige and to earn some Brownie points to boot, with a feminist finale to its Today programme.
They’d been busy, John Humphrys told us, on the case of that impenetrable old canard, oops sorry, the glass ceiling. Yes, he intoned, the world disgracefully is still run by men. But never fear, for last year the BBC addressed this problem on a global scale no less. It had identified 100 women from around the planet who have been working hard with their hammers to shatter it.
At its second annual 100 Women event, the BBC had named another set of wonder women (sorry, emerging opinion-formers) who had made ‘a significant contribution to advancing the status of women’.
Anyway, on account of this noble exercise, which conveniently chimed with the shocking findings of the World Economic Forum’s Global Gender Gap Report (yes you heard me – Global Gender Gap Report) Today gave over its last ten minutes to the results of this survey, to the continuing iniquities of the gender gap and to the cure-all solutions of childcare and sex education.

Putin To Western Elites: Play-Time Is Over
ClubOrlov: Most people in the English-speaking parts of the world missed Putin's speech at the Valdai conference in Sochi a few days ago, and, chances are, those of you who have heard of the speech didn't get a chance to read it, and missed its importance. (For your convenience, I am pasting in the full transcript of his speech below.) Western media did their best to ignore it or to twist its meaning. Regardless of what you think or don't think of Putin (like the sun and the moon, he does not exist for you to cultivate an opinion) this is probably the most important political speech since Churchill's “Iron Curtain” speech of March 5, 1946.
In this speech, Putin abruptly changed the rules of the game. Previously, the game of international politics was played as follows: politicians made public pronouncements, for the sake of maintaining a pleasant fiction of national sovereignty, but they were strictly for show and had nothing to do with the substance of international politics; in the meantime, they engaged in secret back-room negotiations, in which the actual deals were hammered out. Previously, Putin tried to play this game, expecting only that Russia be treated as an equal. But these hopes have been dashed, and at this conference he declared the game to be over, explicitly violating Western taboo by speaking directly to the people over the heads of elite clans and political leaders.
The Russian blogger chipstone summarized the most salient points from Putin speech as follows:

British Citizen Turns Himself In To Scotland Yard After PM Cameron’s Inflammatory UN Speech
“Britain’s Prime Minister David Cameron Says “Non-Violent Conspiracy Theorists” Are Just As Dangerous As ISIS”
“David Cameron told the U.N. that “non-violent extremism” is just as dangerous as terrorism and must be eradicated using all means at the government’s disposal.
He references 9/11 and 7/7 Truthers as examples of the type of extremism that must be dealt in a similar fashion to ISIS.
If you thought Obama’s War is Peace speech to the U.N. was creepy, wait until you get a load of this.
Cameron is officially announcing a the plan to use a full assault on dissenting views.”[1]
David Cameron Offends Every Seeker Of 9/11 And 7/7 Truth
By Michael Thomas: When the Prime Minister of the ‘United’ Kingdom uses the bully pulpit of the United Nations General Assembly to browbeat the community of nations to squash reasonable and necessary inquiry into 9/11 Truth, something is very wrong.Vladimir Putin Is The Leader Of The Moral World
By Paul Craig Roberts: Dear Friends, Vladimir Putin’s remarks at the 11th meeting of the Valdai International Discussion Club are worth more than a link in my latest column. These are the remarks of a humanitarian political leader, the like of which the world has not seen in my lifetime. Compare Putin to the corrupt war criminal in the White House or to his puppets in office in Germany, UK, France, Japan, Canada, Australia, and you will see the difference between a criminal clique and a leader striving for a humane and livable world in which the interests of all peoples are respected.
In a sane Western society, Putin’s statements would have been reproduced in full and discussions organized with remarks from experts such as Stephen F. Cohen. Choruses of approval would have been heard on television and read in the print media. But, of course, nothing like this is possible in a country whose rulers claim that it is the “exceptional” and “indispensable” country with an extra-legal right to hegemony over the world. As far as Washington and its prostitute media, named “presstitutes” by the trends specialist Gerald Celente, are concerned, no country counts except Washington. “You are with us or against us,” which means “you are our vassals or our enemies.” This means that Washington has declared Russia, China, India, Brazil and other parts of South America, Iran, and South Africa to be enemies.
This is a big chunk of the world for a bankrupt country, hated by its vassal populations and many of its own subjects, that has not won a war since it defeated tiny Japan in 1945 by using nuclear weapons, the only use of such terrible weapons in world history.

Child Poverty Jumps By 2.6 Million In Developed World Since 2008, While Number Of Global Billionaires Doubles
By Michael Krieger: Two headlines came across my screens today, which taken together pretty much sum up the effects of policy decisions made by Central Bankers and politicians since the financial crisis. The financial oligarchs got bailed out, and the rich got richer due to decisions made by “leaders” around the globe. As such, the entire planet has now been transformed into a neo-feudal tinderbox. Myself and countless others warned all the way back to 2008 that this is what would happen, and here you have it.
Let’s first examine the results from Oxfam’s report on the billionaire growth spurt. I hope all 1,645 of you have sent thank you notes to the patron saint of oligarchy: Ben Bernanke. From NBC:

Unsurprisingly, this reverse Robin Hood policy of Central Banks and governments the world over has also resulted in increased poverty.The super-rich club has become less exclusive, with the amount of billionaires doubling since the financial crisis, according to a report from global charity Oxfam. There were 1,645 billionaires globally as of March 2014, according to Forbes data cited in the Oxfam report, up from 793 in March 2009.The report ‘Even it Up: Time to End Extreme Inequality’ noted that the world’s richest 85 people saw their wealth jump by a further $668 million per day collectively between 2013 and 2014, which equates to half a million dollars a minute.

Lets Accuse Ezra Klein Of Rape + MR Fight Club - JTO v PE

By Charles C. W. Cooke: If, in the modern era, a speaker proposes that one “cannot make an omelet without breaking eggs,” his audience can safely presume that he is joking. At one point, perhaps, it was deemed copacetic for leaders to off a few innocents in order for the living to get the right idea, but, in these more enlightened times, such displays are rather frowned upon. By all means make your case, our better angels enjoin. But keep the guiltless out of it.
JSIL (Israel) Recalls Envoy To Sweden Over Palestine Recognition
The apartheid Tel Aviv regime JSIL has recalled it's ambassador to Stockholm after Sweden's official recognition of the Palestinian state.
JSIL shill UK regulator BANNED Press TV: The JSIL Goyem Ministry announced on Thursday that it has recalled the regime’s ambassador to Stockholm for consultations with regard to the Scandinavian country’s decision to recognize the state of Palestine.
Meanwhile, the JSIL Goyem Minister Avigdor Lieberman spouted some spin at Sweden for what he called the “miserable decision that strengthens the extremist elements and Palestinian rejectionism.''
“It's a shame that the government of Sweden chose to take a declarative step that only causes harm,” added the JSIL official.
This is while Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas has praised Sweden for making the “brave and historic” decision.

The Wrath of Draghi: First German Bank Hits Savers with ‘Negative Interest Rates’
By Wolf Richter: Deutsche Skatbank, a division of VR-Bank Altenburger Land, which was
founded in 1859, is not the biggest bank in Germany, but it’s the first
bank to confirm what German savers have been dreading for a while: the
wrath of Draghi.
Retail and business customers with over €500,000 on deposit as of
November 1 will earn a “negative interest rate” of 0.25%. In less
euphemistic terms, they have to pay 0.25% per annum to the bank for the privilege of handing the bank their hard-earned money or their business cash.
Inflation has had a similar effect in the zero-interest-rate
environment that the ECB and other central banks have inflicted on
savers, but this time it’s official, it’s open, it can’t be hidden.
Instead of lending your moolah to the bank so that the bank can lend it
out to businesses and retail customers for all sorts of economically
beneficial purposes, you’re financially better off hiding it in the
basement. Grudging respect is due the ECB and other central banks:
through the perverse regime of ZIRP, they have succeeded in
transmogrifying “cash in bank” from an income-producing asset to a
costly liability.
David Cameron's Not A White Knight + This Is What Manginas Look Like
"I believe men and women should be treated equally" UK PM David Cameron
Understandably, David Cameron is ‘uncomfortable’ with calling himself a feminist groupie or 'white knight mangina' it was claimed today – after refusing to wear a T-shirt backing a new feminist campaign.
Thankfully the Prime Minister rejected the offer to wear a ‘this is what a feminist looks like’ T-shirt – despite being pestered five times by a women’s rag.
Mangina Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg and the white knight Labour leader Ed Miliband both turned out to be pussy whipped alongside celebrities Benedict Cumberbatch, Joseph Gordon Levitt and Tom Hiddleston.

20-Year CBS News Veteran, Sharyl Attkisson, Details Massive Censorship and Propaganda in US Mainstream Media
Journalists should be dark, funny, mean people. It’s appropriate for their antagonistic, adversarial role.
Often they dream up stories beforehand and turn the reporters into “casting agents,” told “we need to find someone who will say . . .” that a given policy is good or bad. “We’re asked to create a reality that fits their New York image of what they believe,” she writes.

Earlier this week, I published a piece titled, Former CBS Reporter Accuses Government of Secretly Planting Classified Docs on Her Computer, which I thought was incredible in its own right, yet the information in that post seems almost trite compared to the flood of information Attkisson has revealed to the New York Post’s Kyle Smith.

Sharyl Attkisson is an unreasonable woman. Important people have told her so.
– Matt Taibbi, in this New York Magazine article
By Michael Krieger: Reporters on the ground aren’t necessarily ideological, Attkisson says, but the major network news decisions get made by a handful of New York execs who read the same papers and think the same thoughts.Often they dream up stories beforehand and turn the reporters into “casting agents,” told “we need to find someone who will say . . .” that a given policy is good or bad. “We’re asked to create a reality that fits their New York image of what they believe,” she writes.

Sweden To Recognize The Palestinian State Today - Foreign Ministry
RT: Sweden is to recognize the occupied state of Palestine officially on
Thursday, according to its foreign ministry. The Scandinavian country
will become the first major European state to recognize the territories
occupied by Israel.
This follows an earlier hint by Prime Minister Stefan Lovfen in his Social Democrat manifesto, during his inaugural address in October, that this would happen. The idea was quickly met with criticism from the United States and Israel.
"Today's recognition is a contribution to a better future for a region that has for too long been characterized by frozen negotiations, destruction and frustration," Foreign Minister Margot Wallstrom wrote in the daily Dagens Nyheter.
"Some will state this decision comes too soon. I am afraid, rather, that it is too late." Source

Watch As 8 US Police Officers Fire 46 Shots And Kill A Homeless Man In Broad Daylight
By Michael Krieger: Out of control US police brutality (including outright murder), and the militarization of cops across America, while significant issues in their own right, take on an even more pressing degree of concern when viewed as a reflection of society as a whole. For years now, I have been trying to point out the connection between banker bailouts, corruption in Washington D.C., imperialistic foreign policy and police aggression. They are all different sides of the same coin. All of these things are merely symptoms of the core cancer, which is a sociopathic elite running the nation and not applying the rule of law to those who are in power; wherever that power happens to reside.

I Pledge Allegiance… The Dissident Dad - USA
'Do we really want our kids
pledging obedience and loyalty to the U.S. federal government?
Especially when the pledge itself is masked with a lie. I mean, it ends
with, “with liberty and justice for all.” Now that’s a crock of shit
right there.'
By The Dissident Dad: Remember those weird kids who didn’t say the Pledge of Allegiance in school? They either sat down or just stood up silently. I sure do. Most likely for religious reasons, but I remember thinking to myself as a kid that it was wrong not to say the pledge aloud with the rest of us. As I got older in my teenage years, I even felt that those kids were not being respectful.
Some adults may even give them the old, “well, if you don’t like it then you can leave” routine that is mentioned every time a minority opts out of the majority’s way of doing things.
Homeschooling my children will really make this a non-issue; however, my nieces were reciting the American Pledge of Allegiance the other day while playing with my children. In fact, here in Texas the kids recite both the American and Texas Pledge of Allegiance before class.
After hearing them recite it, and of course remembering the 2,500 or so times I said it in my lifetime, I started to think about the purpose and real meaning of this pledge that millions of school-aged children recite every morning Monday through Friday.

Alan Greenspan: QE Failed To Help The Economy, The Unwind Will Be Painful, "Buy Gold"
Submitted by Tyler Durden: It appears it is time for some Hillary-Clinton-esque backtracking and Liesman-esque translation of just what the former Federal Reserve Chief really meant. As The Wall Street Journal reports, the Fed chief from 1987 to 2006 says the Fed's bond-buying program fell short of its goals, and had a lot more to add.
Mr. Greenspan’s comments to the Council on Foreign Relations came as Fed officials were meeting in Washington, D.C., and expected to announce within hours an end to the bond purchases.
He said the bond-buying program was ultimately a mixed bag. He said that the purchases of Treasury and mortgage-backed securities did help lift asset prices and lower borrowing costs. But it didn’t do much for the real economy.
“Effective demand is dead in the water” and the effort to boost it via bond buying “has not worked,” said Mr. Greenspan. Boosting asset prices, however, has been “a terrific success.”

Fireworks Fly As Peter Schiff Warns "An Economy That Lives By QE, Dies By QE"
Submitted by Tyler Durden: Ahead of tomorrow's decision by the FOMC, Peter Schiff ventured on to CNBC to discuss the economy, the fed, and gold... among other things. Schiff rightly fears that while the Fed may well stop QE3 tomorrow, QE4 will not be too long behind it as he notes, rather eloquently, that "an economy that lives by QE, will die by QE" as the Fed's total lack of willingness to allow stocks to fall (see Bullard 2 weeks ago) or a 'cleansing' recession leaves the nation's economy in far worse shape than it was before the Fed's intervention. Schiff calmly replies to the anchor's questions (as she proclaims "I am not on the side of the Fed but..."), gently explains his view on gold when challenged about his 'wrongness', but when a guest starts hounding him for being dangerous to CNBC viewers wealth... Schiff (rightly) loses it - must watch!
We Don’t Have One Problem - We Have Three Interlocking Sets Of Problems
By Charles Hugh Smith: The additional sets of problems added as “solutions” only guarantee that the third and final crash of asset bubbles just ahead will be far more devastating than the crashes of 2000 and 2009.
The conventional view tacitly assumes the global economy is dealing with one problem: recovering from the Global Financial Meltdown of 2008-09. Stimulating a “recovery” has been the focus of central banks and states everywhere.
Short-sighted political expediency is a hallmark of the modern state’s reaction to crisis, but political expediency isn’t the only flaw in the central banks/states’ obsessive focus on “recovery;” it’s not even the primary flaw.
The real flaw is the central banks/states don’t even recognize that we face three interlocking sets of problems, not one. Each set of problems is layered on top of the previous layer, and each sets reinforces the other two. In other words, the entire problem set is more than just the sum of the three problem sets.

Obama Official Says JSIL's Netanyahu Is A 'Chickenshit,'
A senior Obama administration official has described JSIL (aka Israel) Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as a “chickenshit,” expressing the US president’s frustration with the apartheid JSIL leader.
Zionist shill UK regulator BANNED Press TV: “The thing about Bibi [Netanyahu] is, he’s a chickenshit,” the unnamed official told the Atlantic when asked about the foreign leader who seems to frustrate the White House the most.
The official added that the good thing about Netanyahu is that “he’s scared to launch wars,” and the bad thing about him is that “he won’t do anything to reach an accommodation with the Palestinians.”
“The only thing he’s interested in is protecting himself from political defeat… He’s got no guts,” the official said.
According to the Atlantic, the statement by the top Obama official indicates that relations between Washington and Tel Aviv have moved toward a “full-blown crisis.”
The United States recently criticized JSIL’s plan to build more than 1,000 'settler' units in the stolen occupied Palestinian lands.

According to the Atlantic, the statement by the top Obama official indicates that relations between Washington and Tel Aviv have moved toward a “full-blown crisis.”
The United States recently criticized JSIL’s plan to build more than 1,000 'settler' units in the stolen occupied Palestinian lands.
Conned By A Female Sociopath. IHOW
By Dr. Tara J. Palmatier: It’s day 28 of Domestic Violence Awareness Month 2014. “Beeker” shares his story about how his true love became his abuser.
Our eyes met across a crowded room. As trite as it sounds, that is how I met the woman who became my wife and my abuser… the Hungarian Horntail. The cafeteria was loud and boisterous. I was eating lunch and looking for one of my friends so when my eyes met with a woman who I did not know, it was fleeting. When our eyes met a second time, I was curious why.
We ran into each other frequently. She was energetic, bright, articulate, charming and handsome rather than pretty. She was slim, fit and muscular. I wasn’t looking for a relationship; she said she wasn’t either. Everyone around us relaxed by drinking alcoholic beverages; we had non-alcoholic coolers, juice or coffee. In retrospect, a great number of Horntail’s positive aspects were reflections of me.

David Cameron Refuses To Wear A ‘This Is What A Feminist Looks Like’ T-Shirt (Unlike Drippy Miliband And Clegg)
By Laura Perrins: The liberal dictators over at the Fawcett Society along with Elle magazine have taken umbrage at the Prime Minister declining to wear one of those infantile “This is what a feminist looks like T-shirts". Shocking, is it not, when not everyone agrees with your socialist political views? Why can’t we all just get along with a big group hug?
Lorraine Candy, Elle’s editor-in chief, tells us that the magazine asked Cameron ‘five times’ if he would wear the shirt and post a picture as proof. She has taken time out of her busy schedule of collating photographs of air-brushed models suggesting to us what we should wear, to bemoan our Prime Minister’s lack of feminist credentials.
Let’s leave aside for one moment that the Prime Minister does have other matters to deal with, such as ebola, Isis and the increasing public debt. Ms Candy essentially admits that she badgered the PM to take part in this ridiculous schoolgirl trick. Don’t you know Ms Candy that No means No? I thought that was a cardinal rule of feminism.
The Fawcett Society, which campaigns for women’s equality, agreed it was “unfortunate” that the Prime Minister appeared to be uncomfortable with identifying himself with the ‘cause of feminism.’ They find this hard to believe, even though Red Ed and that nutty one Nick Clegg donned said T-shirt like a couple of cringing schoolboys to tell us all they were feminists. We knew that already, men.

“Stop Thanking Me for My Service” – Former U.S. Army Ranger Blasts American Foreign Policy and The Corporate State
Starbucks Chairman Howard Schultz has said of the upcoming Concert for Valor: “The post-9/11 years have brought us the longest period of sustained warfare in our nation’s history. The less than one percent of Americans who volunteered to serve during this time have afforded the rest of us remarkable freedoms — but that freedom comes with a responsibility to understand their sacrifice, to honor them, and to appreciate the skills and experience they offer when they return home.”
It was crafty of Schultz to redirect that famed 1% label from the ultra rich, represented by CEOs like him, onto our “heroes.” At the concert, I hope Schultz has a chance to get more specific about those “remarkable freedoms.” Will he mention that the U.S. has the highest per capita prison population on the planet? Does he include among those remarkable freedoms the guarantee that dogs, Tasers, tear gas, and riot police will be sent after you if you stay out past dark protesting the killing of an unarmed Black teenager by a representative of this country’s increasingly militarized police? Will the freedom to be too big to fail and so to have the right to melt down the economy and walk away without going to prison — as Jamie Dimon, the CEO of Chase, did – be mentioned? Do these remarkable freedoms include having every American phone call and email recorded and stored away by the NSA?
– From the incredible letter by Former U.S. Army Ranger Rory Fanning: Stop Thanking Me for My Service
By Michael Krieger: I have to admit, whenever I find myself in the midst of a large public gathering (which fortunately isn’t that often), and the token veteran or two is called out in front of the masses to “honor” I immediately begin to cringe as a result of a massive internal conflict.
