The 10 Daily Habits Of Highly Prepared People
Authored by Daisy Luther: For some people, preparedness is about the big things: the well-stocked retreat home, buying yet another firearm, or getting a super-fancy generator. While these things can certainly be classified as preparedness endeavors, it isn’t the expensive and dramatic gestures that make us truly prepared people.
The way prepared people spend their time before an emergency is the real key to survival, and this is something that no amount of money can buy.
It’s the small daily habits that become an innate part of our everyday lives – habits that may not even be noticeable to someone outside the lifestyle.
Real preppers, the ones you should look to for advice if you happen to be new to preparedness, are the ones who quietly conduct their daily lives with an eye towards readiness. Not
only are these the qualities you should strive for yourself, but they
are also the qualities that can help you to determine whether someone is
the “real deal” or an armchair survivalist.

Jewish Israeli Death Forces IDF Target Children At Christmas
"It's inconceivable that a child this young could be taken by force by armed soldiers, held alone and then not even notify the parents. A human rights watch report documented how Israeli Death Forces [IDF] have choked children, thrown stun grenades at them, beaten them in custody and as with 6-year-old Zaeed, threatened and interrogated them without the presence of parents or lawyers and also failed to let their parents know about their whereabouts."
10 Politically Incorrect Jokes
USA: Merry Christmas, Fellow Inmates
Let Nothing DismayA cluster of shocks to the body politic has made for a holly, jolly Christmas in which big honkin’ lumps of coal will be stuffed in stockings of some high-octane Federal clients accustomed to gold, frankincense, and more. Oddly, in these times, Santa will be dumping mainly on those who deserve it.
Where to start? You got your Dow and S&P tanking, the smoking jalopy of government shut down, SpecOps purportedly yanked out of Syria, Dear Leader spread-eagled on His Wall, and gored oxen bellowing Holy Cow.
Okay, the market bleed was overdue and predicted. The Big Hitters jacked their stock prices with tax scam buybacks so the popping of their magic money balloon claws a little back. Shall we bitterly mourn? The Bigs do as little as they possibly can for the real economy the rest of us live in anyhow.
John Pilger Visits Assange
Pilger: ‘Julian is a touchstone for opposition’
John Pilger Says Assange Denies Meeting Manafort
By Joe Lauria: WikiLeaks publisher Julian Assange has vehemently denied that he ever met Donald Trump’s former campaign manager, according to journalist and filmmaker John Pilger, who met with Assange at Ecuador’s embassy in London last week.
Pilger said Assange told him the story published by The Guardian on Nov. 27 was a “total fabrication.” Pilger told Consortium News in an interview for the Unity4J vigil on Friday that “I personally can confirm that did not happen. He said it was a fabrication. It was not possible. The way internal security works at that embassy, it was not possible.”
Pilger called The Guardian story “an indication of a kind of degradation of the media today and especially of the ‘respectable’ media. We discussed that a great deal.”
Pilger said Assange had been the target of attacks “over the years” that have come “thick and fast.” He said: “And for one man to cope with them is an extraordinary feat. Only occasionally does he express anger—he does it as anyone of us would feel—say on an attack like The Guardian‘s utterly false story.”

Taibbi: We Know How Trump's War Game Ends
'We’ve destabilized the region to the point of abject chaos, inspired millions of Muslims to hate us, and torn up the Geneva Convention and half the Constitution in pursuit of policies like torture, kidnapping, assassination-by-robot and warrantless detention.'
Authored by Matt Taibbi: Nothing unites our political class like the threat of ending our never-ending war ...So we’re withdrawing troops from the Middle East.
GOOD!
What’s the War on Terror death count by now, a half-million? How much have we spent, $5 trillion? Five-and-a-half?
For that cost, we’ve destabilized the region to the point of abject chaos, inspired millions of Muslims to hate us, and torn up the Geneva Convention and half the Constitution in pursuit of policies like torture, kidnapping, assassination-by-robot and warrantless detention.
It will be difficult for each of us to even begin to part with our share of honor in those achievements. This must be why all those talking heads on TV are going crazy.
Fairytales And Snowflakes
Rembrandt van Rijn Bathsheba at her bath 1654 (see video at the bottom)
By There are not many things that I’m allergic to. But there are some. Here’s a good example: bigotry. Behold, in the article quoted below, the danger of political correctness in all its glory. A 30-year old Christmas song, Fairytale of New York, it is claimed, must be censored or banned. For a reason I’ll explain, such things always make me think of Rembrandt’s painting “Bathsheba at her Bath” (the painting above), which hangs in the Louvre.
No doubt there are those who are offended by her nakedness.Jewish Israel’s War Against A Widow
'The invading soldiers had modern weapons; the local youth had rocks and Molotov cocktails.'
Latifa was expecting the raid from Israel’s forces of occupation. The previous day, she had been instructed to evacuate her home within 24 hours.
She decided to stay put. Youth from the camp – situated south of Ramallah in the occupied West Bank – had joined her, determined to resist the invaders.
