Imagine *A Message to All Americans* - Kinetic typography
This kinetic typography is not my video, It is a mirror for @TheRevolutionPac: "http://revolutionpac.com/defense Make sure to LIKE, FAVORITE, SHARE, and COMMENT. Lets push this to the top! This is a message from the "Godfather" of the Tea Party to Obama. Now that we have killed Osama Bin Laden it is time to end the wars and stop policing the world. A little bit of history: the Tea Party movement started when Ron Paul raised a record $6 million in 24 hours on the anniversary of the Boston Tea Party in December 2007. Here is the USAToday article on that event: http://www.usatoday.com/news/politics/election2008/2007-12-17-ronpaul-fundrai... This talk is called "Imagine" and it was given by Ron Paul on March 11, 2009. The original text of the talk is below: Imagine for a moment that somewhere in the middle of Texas there was a large foreign military base, say Chinese or Russian. Imagine that thousands of armed foreign troops were constantly patrolling American streets in military vehicles. Imagine they were here under the auspices of "keeping us safe" or "promoting democracy" or "protecting their strategic interests." Imagine that they operated outside of US law, and that the Constitution did not apply to them. Imagine that every now and then they made mistakes or acted on bad information and accidentally killed or terrorized innocent Americans, including women and children, most of the time with little to no repercussions or consequences. Imagine that they set up checkpoints on our soil and routinely searched and ransacked entire neighborhoods of homes. Imagine if Americans were fearful of these foreign troops, and overwhelmingly thought America would be better off without their presence. Imagine if some Americans were so angry about them being in Texas that they actually joined together to fight them off, in defense of our soil and sovereignty, because leadership in government refused or were unable to do so. Imagine that those Americans were labeled terrorists or insurgents for their defensive actions, and routinely killed, or captured and tortured by the foreign troops on our land. Imagine that the occupiers' attitude was that if they just killed enough Americans, the resistance would stop, but instead, for every American killed, ten more would take up arms against them, resulting in perpetual bloodshed. Imagine if most of the citizens of the foreign land also wanted these troops to return home. Imagine if they elected a leader who promised to bring them home and put an end to this horror. Imagine if that leader changed his mind once he took office. The reality is that our military presence on foreign soil is as offensive to the people that live there as armed Chinese troops would be if they were stationed in Texas. We would not stand for it here, but we have had a globe-straddling empire and a very intrusive foreign policy for decades that incites a lot of hatred and resentment towards us. According to our own CIA, our meddling in the Middle East was the prime motivation for the horrific attacks on 9/11. But instead of re-evaluating our foreign policy, we have simply escalated it. We had a right to go after those responsible for 9/11, to be sure, but why do so many Americans feel as if we have a right to a military presence in some 160 countries when we wouldn't stand for even one foreign base on our soil, for any reason? These are not embassies, mind you, these are military installations. The new administration is not materially changing anything about this. Shuffling troops around and playing with semantics does not accomplish the goals of the American people, who simply want our men and women to come home. 50,000 troops left behind in Iraq is not conducive to peace any more than 50,000 Russian soldiers would be in the United States. Shutting down military bases and ceasing to deal with other nations with threats and violence is not isolationism. It is the opposite. Opening ourselves up to friendship, honest trade and diplomacy is the foreign policy of peace and prosperity. It is the only foreign policy that will not bankrupt us in short order, as our current actions most definitely will. I share the disappointment of the American people in the foreign policy rhetoric coming from the administration. The sad thing is, our foreign policy WILL change eventually, as Rome's did, when all budgetary and monetary tricks to fund it are exhausted.

REAL REASON WHY USA ISRAEL WILL ATTACK IRAN -$$$
It's the same reason that we have CIA operatives causing the Arab Spring, to overthrow govts. that want to accept other forms of currency for trade. The REAL reason we invaded Iraq, staged the 911 events as strategy to get their way into the middle east. This is real, and I hope and pray people wake up. The dollar is the worlds reserve currency, and these wars are to ensure it remains that way.

Deforestation Decreased Over the Past 10 Years
This is the VOA Special English Agriculture Report, from http://voaspecialenglish.com The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization says deforestation has decreased over the past ten years. But it still continues at a high rate in many countries. Deforestation is mainly caused by the cutting down of tropical forests to provide land for agriculture. The worlds total forest area is just over four billion hectares. About thirteen million hectares of forest were cut down or lost through natural causes each year in the last ten years. This compares with about sixteen million hectares per year during the nineteen nineties. The FAO study covers two hundred thirty-three countries and areas. The study found that Brazil and Indonesia have reduced their deforestation rates. The two countries had the highest loss of forests in the nineteen nineties. In addition, the study noted tree-planting programs in countries such as China, India, Vietnam and the United States. These programs, along with natural expansion of forests in some areas, have added more than seven million hectares of new forests each year. South America and Africa had the highest yearly loss of forests during the last ten years. South America lost four million hectares. Africa lost almost three and a half million hectares. However, Asia gained more than two million hectares a year in the last decade. In North America and Central America, the forest area remained about the same. In Europe, it continued to expand, but at a slower rate than earlier. Eduardo Rojas is assistant director-general of FAOs Forestry Department. He said for the first time, the rate of deforestation has decreased around the world. This is the result of efforts taken at local and international levels. Mister Rojas said countries have improved their forest policies and legislation. They have also provided forests for use by local communities and native peoples and for the protection of biological diversity. He said this is a welcome message in two thousand ten the International Year of Biodiversity. However, Mister Rojas said the rate of deforestation is still very high in many areas. He said countries must strengthen their efforts to better protect and manage their forests. And thats the VOA Special English Agriculture Report.

Syria Mourning Tent for French Reporter Killed by Assad Mortar - Grenade Attack 12-Jan-12 Homs
The pro Democracy Movement in Homs set up this Mourning Tent for the Martryed French Reporter Gilles Jacquier on January 12, 2012. The protesters in Syria consider the death of this international reporter to be another plot by the cunning and diabolical Assad police state regime to scare away international reporters from covering the Regimes genocidal attacks on the Syrian people as well as to attempt to discredit the pro Democracy movement. Readers who are trying to figure out who is behind the attack on the French Reporter should ask themselves the old Roman adage: Qui Bono ? (who benefits?) We protesters have been begging for reporters to come to Syria for 10 months and are ecstatic that they are now in the country even if their movements are limited by the Assad secret police but it is Assad who is trying to figure out a way to impede the reporters so what better than another one of his false flag attacks , this time to kill and scare away the international press. Dictator Bashar Assad killed a French Reporter and wounded many other people in a grenade attack on the foreign journalists intented to scare off the international press and to prevent them from reporting on the Assad terror regime campaign of genocide against the Syrian people. A French TV cameraman became the first Western journalist killed in the 10-month-old Syrian uprising Wednesday, dying in a barrage of grenades during a government-sponsored trip to the restive city of Homs, officials and a witness said. Gilles Jacquier,who was killed, worked for the France 2 public television channel. About 15 journalists were on the government trip when they were hit by several grenades, according to Jens Franssen, who was on the tour. "At some point, three or four (grenade) shells hit, very close to us," Franssen told the Belgian VRT network. Video footage posted on YouTube appeared to show the aftermath of the attack, with people frantically loading the injured into cars. Pools of blood stained the ground. The authenticity of the footage, however, could not be verified. A Dutch freelance journalist was also wounded in Homs on Wednesday, although it wasn't clear if he was part of the trip. Al-Akhbar: Nine people were killed, including French journalist Gilles Jacquier, when shells struck a pro-regime rally in the Syrian city of Homs on Wednesday. French television network France 2 confirmed their journalist Jacquier had died covering the rally, while Belgian journalist Steven Visner from Belgian radio was also seriously wounded. "Another journalist from Belgium is in a very bad situation," Mazen Darwish, director of the Syrian Center for Media and Freedom of Speech, told Al-Akhbar. Jacquier is the first foreign journalist to have been killed in Syria since the uprising began last March. Darwish, citing local sources, said RPGs were fired on the protest in the Akramah neighborhood by unknown armed men. The journalists were in Syria legally after receiving permission from the Ministry of Information, Darwish said. "Last week the Ministry of Information allowed 135 journalists to enter Syria, some of them got permission for a few days. These two journalists were among them," he said. Darwish expressed concern that the attack will deter journalists from trying to reach Syria to cover the crisis. "We've been fighting a long time for independent journalists to come to Syria. I will be sorry if journalists stop coming to Syria and getting coverage from inside Syria," he said. Foreign journalists have been unable to freely cover the crisis in Syria, with few exceptions granted to those willing to be escorted by the regime. In explaining his ban on foreign media coverage in Syria, President Bashar Assad said the media lacked legitimacy. "We chose to keep the media out because they lack legitimacy to report [on the crisis] from outside, let alone inside the country," he said in a Tuesday speech. Saleem Kabbani, a member of the opposition Local Coordination Committees (LCC) reportedly in Homs, told Al-Akhbar he was not aware of the attack. "Protest with the regime? I don't know anything about it," he said. But the LCC member insisted on blaming the regime for the attack, stating that Assad is "killing people loyal to him in order to create internal and sectarian strife." The attack was an attempt to "scare off pro-regime loyalists who have not joined the revolution yet," Kabbani said. When asked for further details, Kabbani said he would not be able to get information from pro-regime neighborhoods as he "would get slaughtered." 2 1 Homs أوغاريت حمص حي الصفصافة , خيمة عزاء من اجل الصحفي جيل جاكيي

Arab League halts Syria mission as violence rages
The Arab League has confirmed it is suspending its monitoring mission in Syria because of "the critical deterioration of the situation". The pan-Arab bloc also says it is holding talks with Russia - one of the main opponents of the Arab League peace plan - ahead of a United Nations meeting in New York on Monday. The main Syrian opposition group says it will go to the UN to appeal for protection from President Bashar al-Assad's forces. Al Jazeera's Zeina Khodr reports from Beirut in neighbouring Lebanon.
