Fool Me Twice, Shame on US

"It's shocking to me that in this day and age, after what this world has been through, that there can be any argument that what the United States plans to do is legal. For the United States to go in there, you need two sets of laws to be complied with. One is international law, UN law, and the other is our own domestic Constitution of the United States. Since the Second World War, there's only two ways that you can make war on another nation. One is in self-defense. So if you're being attacked by a missile or a rocket from that country, etc., you can use self-defense against that country to try and stop it. And the second one was under the authority of United Nations, the Security Council."—Michael Ratner

The Lies Your Government Tells You About NSA Surveillance

The folks over at ProPublica have collected a series of flat-out lies by government officials concerning NSA snooping and put them all together in a short video.
It includes statements from Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, NSA boss Keith Alexander, Senate Intelligence boss Senator Dianne Feinstein and President Barack Obama -- all stating false claims about NSA surveillance publicly. It then shows how those statements were false. We've said it before but as these very same officials now are trying to assure us there's nothing wrong with the program, given their past lies, how can we take them seriously?

The Video-related content I send out will have a link to the website so you can view the videos, instead of seeing just a list: http://www.dustcircle.com

WAR ON HEALTH
Betraying its founding mandate to assure drug, food and chemical safety in the interests of public health, the FDA today is a repressive bureaucracy serving pharmaceutical and agricultural greed and profits.

THE HUMAN MICROCHIPPING AGENDA
The chipping process is called predictive programming and its purpose is literally to program the mind of the victim so as to accept without question whatever is required by the programmer – in this case, the idea of being micro-chipped at some point in the future. The victim is generally unaware of being programmed, believing that it’s all just harmless entertainment. For this reason it can be a powerful and effective weapon against us.

THIS FILM IS NOT YET RATED
This Film Is Not Yet Rated reveals how the ratings system restricts the exhibition independent and foreign films, gay themed films, and rates sexuality much more harshly than violence. Maintaining power through secrecy, the MPAA refuses to let the public know even the names of the people who rate the films.

PATENT FOR A PIG: THE BIG BUSINESS OF GENETICS
Monsanto, has applied for a patent for pig breeding in 160 countries. The patent is for specific parts of the genetic material of pigs which Monsanto’s genetic researchers have decoded. If this patent is granted, pig breeding would be possible with the approval of the company.

IN SADDAM’S SHADOW: 10 YEARS AFTER
Ten years after the US invasion of Iraq, this documentary series by Vice takes us to Baghdad to see how the city is doing. The film is guided by Waleed Nesyif, after eight years away he is returning home for the first time.

FORT KNOX: SECRETS REVEALED
The U.S. Bullion Depository, better known as Fort Knox, is home of the United States Army and one of the world’s most top secret fortresses. Hidden deep inside the vault is an estimated $73 billion dollars in gold. Almost all information about it is classified. Through interviews with eyewitnesses, rare photos and rarely seen films, we will construct a picture of what the building might look like. Hear testimony of those journalists and congressmen who were among the select few invited inside in 1974. Discover the history and secrets behind the Army’s tank warfare and the classified military technologies it will use to fight the wars of the future.

MOTIVATIONS
“Motivations” is a look inside the everyday struggles of my mother as she battles progressive Multiple Sclerosis, the toll it takes on loved ones, and how a family continues moving forward.

FOR THE BIBLE TELLS ME SO
For the Bible Tells Me So is a 2007 American documentary film directed by Daniel G. Karslake about homosexuality and its perceived conflict with religion, as well as various interpretations of what the Bible says about same-sex sexuality.

Inside the Twin Towers: Accounts from 9/11 Survivors
September 11 is supposed to be an ordinary busy Tuesday for people at the North and South buildings of the World Trade Center. At the completion of its construction, the twin towers of the World Trade Center in Lower Manhattan were the tallest buildings in the world. Before its destruction, the building was the workplace of the best investment firms, financial services and institutions. It’s clearly two of the best places to work as they rise above other buildings and have terrific views of the east coast.

The Alpha Diaries

An unprecedented, groundbreaking and voyeuristic look into military reserve life in Israel, this film was shot over a 5 year period in director and reserve soldier Yaniv Berman’s life. A soldier in the Israeli army reserves, Alpha Company, Berman had unparalleled access and filmed the soldiers as they went about their military service day and night. Crossing over to the Palestinian border the camera captured remarkably every movement of the soldiers from the frenetic night-time house arrests to the quiet moments of self reflection and despair.

Beyond Reason

Beyond Reason is a brand new documentary about Science & Spirituality, but unlike any other film in this genre. Rather than attempt to fit the infinite, into a limited and finite system like modern science, science itself is put under the microscope. Out intellects are bound by our perceptions and what we perceive is limited by our five senses. From what we’ve learned though modern physics, what get through our five senses is more unreal than it is real. Science is all a search for the truth, but in order to reach the Ultimate Truth, we need to go beyond our intellects, Beyond Reason, to get there!!

Full Signal

Full Signal talks to scientists world-wide who are researching the health effects related to cellular technology, veteran journalists who have called attention to the issue for decades, activists who are fighting to regulate the placement of antennas; and to lawyers & law makers who represent the people wanting those antennas regulated.
