Overview of the contents of the REAL NEWSpaper, volume 2007, editions 1-42

REAL NEWSPAPER #42, December 30, 2007 edition 

Big Brother America
> With one year to go in George W. Bush's presidency, has 2007 been the year when America has reached the point of no return, no matter who the new president will be come next New Year?

REAL NEWSPAPER #41, December 23, 2007 edition 

Washing away the Gay Sin
> Christian cultish behaviour is subjecting gays to "realign" their sexuality, in the hope that their souls will be saved by God.

Midwest City Fights Back Against Iran War-Mongering
> The City of Gary, Indiana, is boldly going where the US Congress fears to tread.

Cosmic conspiracy revealed: global warming is universal
> Rising temperatures aren't confined to Earth, claim Christopher Booker and Richard North, who attribute the problem to changes in the sun's radiation. But how right are they?  

REAL NEWSPAPER #40, December 16, 2007 edition 

Gates: Israel doesn't pose nuclear threat like Iran
> US Defense Secretary Robert Gates has defended Israel's reputed nuclear program, saying Israel did not seek to destroy its neighbours or support terrorism, unlike Iran. The attack against Lebanon in August 2006, however, might be seen by some as evidence to the contrary.  

Weather Warfare: Beware the US military’s experiments with climatic warfare
> 'Climatic warfare' has been excluded from the agenda on climate change. Indeed, perhaps it should, for climatic warfare is now within the capability of several nations – yet somehow seems to be missed – for whatever reason – from all debates about climate change, and incidental disasters due to "freak weather".

Depopulation on the horizon?
> As bizarre as it may seem, it is a known fact that we are growing exponentially on this planet at a rate not so much the Earth, but the global society, cannot indefinitely sustain. Some have therefore begun to scaremonger that "the Illuminati" are pondering a depopulation programme. Could they be right?

REAL NEWSPAPER #39, December 9, 2007 edition 

Why does Bush invoke the threat of World War III?
> In October, George Bush used comparisons to World War III to "inform" the American public about "the threat" from Iran. That Iran is unable to attack, let alone bring about World War III, has been a mystery. In truth, Iran is all about America and its struggle to remain a global superpower - and evade the collapse of its internal economy.

America shuns Hollywood's take on Iraq
> Big-budget Hollywood films prove a flop with opponents and supporters of the conflict. Is the world tired of seeing and hearing what it already knows? 

REAL NEWSPAPER #38, December 2, 2007 edition 

Congress, Courts Examine 'State Secrets'
> In federal courts and on Capitol Hill, challenges are brewing to a key legal strategy President Bush is using to protect a secret surveillance program that monitors phone calls and e-mails inside the United States.

We are set on a course of 'planet saving' madness
> The scare over global warming, and our politicians' response to it, is becoming ever more bizarre. While the IPCC is saying one thing (and getting awards for it), the hard evidence is showing exactly the opposite.

Meet South Carolina politics
> With less than a year before presidential elections, the race is heating up. But nowhere is the race uglier and dirtier than in South Carolina, allegedly one of the most "Christian states" out there.

US storm over book on Israel lobby
> How does America's "Jewish lobby" work? Is its power truly legendary, or just a legend? Two US academics, John Mearsheimer of the University of Chicago and Stephen Walt of Harvard, have set out to answer those questions, and triggered a firestorm of controversy as a result.

Fake News 
> The mainstream media is dominated by a handful of mega corporations who control what many of us hear, read, and believe. The propaganda masters are censoring and suppressing the truth from the people. There are many reporters who know the truth but dare not talk or write about it, and what some report they don't even believe themselves.

REAL NEWSPAPER #37, November 25, 2007 edition 

America's Armageddonites
> Utopian fantasies have long transfixed the human race. Yet today a much rarer fantasy has become popular in the United States. Millions of Americans, the richest people in history, have a death wish. They are the new 'Armageddonites,' fundamentalist evangelicals who have moved from forecasting Armageddon to actually trying to bring it about.

US: Danger, danger everywhere
> On three occasions since the end of World War II - in 1950, 1976 and 2004 - elite citizen committees have organized to warn the United States of what they viewed as looming threats to national security. 

REAL NEWSPAPER #36, November 18, 2007 edition 

When the dreams came crashing down
> Pakistan's president Musharraf was seen as a rock within the Middle Eastern swamp into which the Bush Administration had ventured. But November 2007 proves that things have a way of not working out as expected... and Pakistan is not alone.

The Theology of American Empire
> American foreign policy - both good and bad - has always been deeply influenced by Christian theology. 

REAL NEWSPAPER #35, November 11, 2007 edition 

Peak Oil could trigger meltdown of society
> According to a newly published global oil supply report to be presented by the Energy Watch Group at the Foreign Press Association in London, world oil production peaked in 2006.

Fossil record supports evidence of impending mass extinction
> Global temperatures predicted for the coming centuries may trigger a new 'mass extinction event', where over 50 per cent of animal and plant species would be wiped out, warn scientists at the Universities of York and Leeds.

Global food crisis looms as climate change and fuel shortages bite
> Soaring crop prices and demand for biofuels raise fears of political instability

Global warming, the new religion
> What are we to make of "news" such as the fact that Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards called reversing global warming a "great moral test" and said the next president needs to stand up to industries resisting change?

Global Warming Compared to Nuclear Holocaust - Again?
> It's always eyebrow-raising to see people denounce Team Bush for blatant "fear-mongering" about the terror threat from al-Qaeda or Iran, then watch them turn around and do blatant "fear-mongering" about global warming.

My Nobel Moment
> John Christy won the Nobel Prize, together with Al Gore - though few people will know he did. But for The Wall Street Journal, he blames several people for being involved with politics and fear-mongering, and not science.

REAL NEWSPAPER #34, November 4, 2007 edition 

"Iranian explosives" blows up in US faces
> When the United States military command accused the Iranian Quds Force in January of providing the armour-piercing EFPs (explosively formed penetrators) that were killing US troops, it knew that Iraqi machine shops had been producing their own EFPs for years, a review of the historical record of evidence on EFPs in Iraq shows.

It ain't over till all icebergs have melted
> Despite enviro-warriors' best efforts to suppress dissent from "deniers", the global warming debate continues. Nagging questions keep arising over the causes of global warming, its long-term effects and whether in fact humans can influence environmental outcomes, no matter how many billions we spend.

More NESARA nonsense
> True to our name, we visit some of the more outlandish conspiracy theories out there... with NESARA probably taking the number one position.

REAL NEWSPAPER #33, October 28, 2007 edition 

Is a Presidential Coup Under Way?
> The Constitution is being trampled and nothing less than American democracy itself is endangered - a presidential coup is taking place. But it seems that everyone is letting get Bush away with it.  

Put the Blame on Plame
> Former Ambassador Joseph Wilson’s wife Valerie Plame’s outing as a CIA operative following the Iraqi invasion is getting another twist… one that also leads to Iran.

REAL NEWSPAPER #32, October 21, 2007 edition 

Bush's Dirty War
> George W. Bush has transformed elite units of the US military - including Special Forces and highly trained sniper teams - into "death squads" with a license to kill unarmed targets on the suspicion that they are a threat to American military operations in Iraq and Afghanistan, according to evidence from recent court cases.

When Israel Deliberately Attacked an American Ship
> For 40 years, intelligence analysts have kept information secret that a US ship was deliberately attacked by Israel - an alleged ally. Why?

A reign of terror which history has chosen to neglect
> The story of the 19th century's first Holocaust - Winston Churchill used this very word about the Armenian genocide years before the Nazi murder of six million Jews - is both old and new. Why? 

REAL NEWSPAPER #31, October 14, 2007 edition 

Report says war on terror is fuelling Al Qaeda
> Six years after the September 11 attacks in the United States, the "war on terror" is failing and instead fuelling an increase in support for extremist Islamist movements, a British think-tank has concluded.

Christians adopt a different kind of 'Halo' to draw in teenagers
> Evangelical Christian groups in the US have seized on an unlikely recruiting tool to attract teenagers to the church: a violent, shoot-'em-up video game.

How should one bring about change?
> The authors of the new book Break Through argue that scaring people with bad news about the environment is no way to get them to change - what's needed is a dream we all want to be a part of. And this message may perhaps need to apply to all Doomsayers, whatever Doom they are forecasting.

A US depopulation policy?
> Could it be that an active part of the US foreign policy was - if not is - an attempt to depopulate the world?

Gore climate film contains nine errors
> A British High Court judge who ruled on whether climate change film, An Inconvenient Truth, could be shown in schools said it contains "nine scientific errors".
Justice Burton said the government could still send the film to schools - if accompanied by guidance giving the other side of the argument - that climate change may not be as Gore claims it to be. 

REAL NEWSPAPER #30, October 7, 2007 edition 

Rewriting biblical history
> History is being rewritten – specifically biblical history. Like creationism, archaeologists are leaving the field wide open to those with a passion to preach – and promote religion over historical accuracy.

Were nuclear bombs on their way to the Middle East?
> The Wayne Madsen Report has stated that it has learned from US and foreign intelligence sources that the B-52 transporting six stealth AGM-129 Advanced Cruise Missiles, each armed with a W-80-1 nuclear warhead, on August 30, 2007, were indeed destined for the Middle East via Barksdale Air Force Base in Louisiana.

Did Ahmadinejad use UN rostrum to call for Holy War?
> When Ahmadinejad came to the UN, what he said has been up for various “interpretations”. But perhaps one dimension has been missed: that he used the UN as a means to preach and confirm his own religious beliefs?  

REAL NEWSPAPER #29, September 30, 2007 edition 

Mystery deaths of Minot airmen
> Six members of the US Air Force who were involved in the Minot AFB incident, have died in the days and weeks following the disclosure of this most important news story. In fact, some now question the nature of their deaths.

Spin in the War on Terror
> Ahmadinejad's visit to the UN and his speeches elsewhere, as well as their reports in the media, have once again underlined that no matter what one says, it can be totally rearranged to fall in line with the dogma of the War on Terror, which is there to breed paranoia and fear, so that a right wing agenda can be implemented.

The Pentagon Rivals Hollywood at Telling War Stories
> With its dazzling array of propaganda techniques in Iraq, the US military has learned how to conduct war and defeat the press at the same time, as Tom Engelhardt's "End of Victory Culture" explains.  

REAL NEWSPAPER #28, September 23, 2007 edition 

Nuclear power for Iran
> The current controversy over Iranian nuclear plant development is but one – very small – step in a very long history of a country that has tried to have nuclear power. It underlines that a non-issue is scaled up purely in an effort to create controversy and become a case for war. 

Bin Laden or binning new legislation?
> Is Bin Laden and Al Qaeda a threat to our Western way of living? Or should we instead look to Western politicians spinning a new type of legislation that is leading us towards Big Brother and the final implementation of a government that equals the “military industrial complex” Eisenhower warned about? 

REAL NEWSPAPER #27, September 16, 2007 edition 

Keep saying it, and people will believe it
> A series of recent psychological reports suggest statements, denials, myths and truth and how to deal with them require a new approach, as our mind is not responding to them in the way people assume.

How Iraq just became the new Vietnam
> The hallowed Petraeus report has finally been submitted, neatly coinciding with the sixth anniversary of September 11. But the main question that needs to be asked is whether the report, despite calling for troop withdrawal, is also the foundation to making Iraq the new Vietnam.

Was a covert attempt to bomb Iran foiled by a military leak?
> A most unlikely incident involving nuclear weapons carried aboard a B-52 bomber is believed to leave a trail back to the Vice Presidential office of Dick Cheney. One line of thinking is that there was a military leak to foil plans that would have provided a pretext to "act" against Iran. 

REAL NEWSPAPER #26, September 9, 2007 edition 

2007: the year the Global Warming Hoax died?
> Could it be that 2007, the year when newspapers are dominated by global warming and every little odd weather pattern is linked with it, is also the year when the phenomenon will be unmasked as a hoax?

Bush Plans War on Iran
> Moving further along the path that will lead America into war - of whatever description - with Iran, more and more details are beginning to emerge as to what the ideal - if not likely - scenario will be.

The US isn't telling
> The "state secrets" privilege, allowing the government to shut down litigation on national security grounds, was once rarely used. The Bush Administration has invoked it 39 times, to silence public discussion of cases like the claims of an FBI whistleblower and the CIA's abduction of terrorist suspects in Italy and Germany.

REAL NEWSPAPER #25, September 2, 2007 edition

Wahhabi Islam
> Until September 11, 2001, few Westerners had heard of "Wahhabism". Now, most see the word as describing an austere and puritanical type of Islam, mentioned frequently in connection with Osama bin Laden and Saudi Arabia and often named as the inspiration behind the 9/11 terror attacks. But what is it really all about?

Pentagon pulls apocalyptic video game
> Following major controversy, the Pentagon has stopped delivery of a proselytizing videogame about the apocalypse after a string of complaints.

Spin doctor Alastair Campbell fingered as responsible for false WMD claims
> The New Statesman has uncovered evidence that Alastair Campbell placed the September 2002 WMD dossier in the hands of the propaganda unit that later produced the plagiarised "dodgy dossier".

US Opposition Political Leaders Issue Urgent False Flag Terror Warning
> "A group of former government officials along with current Congressional candidates, authors and activists has issued an urgent warning that "a faction of the US government allied with Dick Cheney is planning to stage a terror event or provocation as a pretext for launching military attacks against Iran and implementing emergency powers in America." You know there is something wrong with a country when such things happen!

REAL NEWSPAPER #24, August 26, 2007 edition

The Lavon Affair: A Mossad False Flag Operation
> In July 1954, Egypt was plagued by a series of bomb outrages directed mainly against American and British property in Cairo and Alexandria. It was generally assumed that they were the work of the Moslem Brothers, then the most dangerous challenge to the still uncertain authority of Colonel (later President) Nasser and his two-year-old revolution. But, in truth, it was a Mossad False Flag Operation.

Terrorism = profit
> Between 1978 and 1992, the US government poured at least $6 billion (some estimates range as high as $20 billion) worth of arms, training and funds to prop up the mujahadeen factions.

CIA says US will attack Iran
> Former CIA officer Bob Baer has told Fox News and Time Magazine that the US will attack Iran within 6 months.

Global Warming Theory under further attack
> Apart from rhetoric, the world of science itself is now beginning to argue that global warming may not be what it is claimed to be.

The old Iran-Contra death squad gang is desperate to discredit Chavez
> Democracy and hope in Latin America have been revived by Venezuela's leader. But the forces allied against him are formidable.  

REAL NEWSPAPER #23, August 19, 2007 edition

Y2K bug creates global warming hysteria
> What if some of the evidence for global warming were to be based on computer errors?

> Best-selling science fiction author Michael Crichton has penned a glowing review of Bjorn Lomborg's "Cool It: The Skeptical Environmentalist's Guide to Global Warming."

> After a front page article that states Global Warming is real, Newsweek stated the article was "fundamentally misleading".

The Last Days of American Democracy?
> Elliot Cohen, author of The Last Days of Democracy, argues that the United States is in political and cultural decline, with media and telecommunications giants engaged in "a well-organized effort to hijack America."

Bush and the fake terrorist threat
> Bush, firm in his resolve against "al Qaeda in Iraq," continues to use the terrorist threat as a means to explain the why of his actions.

Jehova's Witnesses in the British Museum: touring the Apocalypse
> Jehovah's Witnesses are taking Bible tours of the British Museum, as if the artefacts inside are proof positive of the imminent demise of the world.  

REAL NEWSPAPER #22, August 12, 2007 edition

Bush isn't spying on Al Qaeda... He's spying on US citizens
> The dispute over whether Attorney General Alberto Gonzales committed perjury when he parsed words about George W. Bush's warrantless surveillance program misses a larger point: the extraordinary secrecy surrounding these spying operations is not aimed at Al Qaeda, but at the American people.

The Myth of "Executive Privilege"
> Bush Administration officials have announced that President Bush will use a claim of "Executive Privilege" to thwart congressional investigation into the firings of several US attorneys. This claim is the latest in a long series of unconstitutional invocations of the notion of Executive Privilege by presidents prominent and obscure.

The Instruments of Tyranny
> Two years ago, in an article entitled "It Can't Happen Here", Congressman Ron Paul cautioned, "We are not yet living in a total police state, but it is fast approaching." A lot can happen in two years.

White House Bill Boosts Warrantless Surveillance
> The Democratic-controlled House on August 4, 2007, approved and sent to President Bush for his signature legislation written by his intelligence advisers to enhance their ability to intercept the electronic communications of foreigners without a court order.

REAL NEWSPAPER #21, August 5, 2007 edition

The Politics of History
> Revisionist history can work both ways: we have the so-called Holocaust deniers, than the ever changing reason why Iraq was invaded in 2003... but entire nation’s past may and can be built upon nothing more than thin air.

Christianity v Islam
> According to Pope Benedict XVI, it's time for another crusade, as Europe is losing its Christian origins, surrendering them to Islam.

08/07?
> There are rumours circulating in the States that six years post 9/11, a false flag is afoot to enter the US in the next stage of a doomsday policy.

Wikipedia and the Intelligence Services
> Is the Net's popular encyclopaedia marred by disinformation? It is not the first time that Conspiracy Times poses this question.

Ex-CIA officer slams US Allegations against Iran as a sham
> In an alarming exposure of the acceleration and urgency of the American war party's push towards catastrophic war with Iran, Philip Giraldi, former CIA counter terrorism officer, debunked the myth of Iran's support for Al Qaeda as a pretext for war.

Exposed: The Truth Behind Popular Carbon Offsetting Schemes
> Academics and environmentalists are questioning the ethics and impact of offsetting - and suggesting that offsetting schemes have not been as effective as claimed.

When Science Becomes "Treason"
> Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. has gone on the record as claiming that those who deny the reality of global warming are flat-earthers, liars and crooks - even "traitors". 

REAL NEWSPAPER #20, July 29, 2007 edition

This week, we explore ritual abuse, focusing particularly on the "Satanic abuse craze" that "Michelle Remembers" unleashed in the early 1980s and which saw a 20th century equivalent to the witch hunts and trials of medieval Europe.
We also delve into the Leo Taxil "hoax" that hit France at the turn of the 20th century and which is unfortunately a largely forgotten "Satanic craze". In both instances, it is clear how the public was whipped into a frenzy… and how each time, the public falls for it, whereby the true crimes are seldom if ever properly analysed.  

REAL NEWSPAPER #19, July 22, 2007 edition

The Bush Code
> Discover the hidden language in Bush’s speeches, as identified by Professor David Domke, who claims it refers to coded communications that Bush is on the side of those who want to create an American theocracy.

The real culprits behind the Iraq insurgency: Saudi Arabia
> Sunni extremists from Saudi Arabia make up half the foreign fighters in Iraq, many suicide bombers, a US official says.

It’s getting frosty: Gorbachev supports Russia's Suspension of Arms Treaty
> Former Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev says Russia's decision to suspend participation in a major European arms treaty is an "absolutely logical" move.

"The Jews did it"… once again
> The Simon Wiesenthal Center worries that "a new wave of conspiratorial anti-Semitic works could be on the way" after a new book claims the Jews are part of an international conspiracy to control the world.

Cheney pushes Bush to act on Iran
> The balance in the internal White House debate over Iran has shifted back in favour of military action before President George Bush leaves office in 18 months, the British newspaper The Guardian has learned.

REAL NEWSPAPER #18, July 15, 2007 edition

World’s oldest DNA sheds light on global warming
> Using the world’s oldest recovered DNA, a new study suggests that Greenland was much warmer than previously thought during the last Ice Age and natural global warming trends may be as significant as human-induced warming.

The Libby Cover-up Completed
> President George W. Bush’s decision to spare former White House aide I. Lewis “Scooter” Libby from jail marks the final act of a crime and cover-up that began four years ago when Bush, Vice President Dick Cheney and other top officials launched a campaign to discredit a critic of the Iraq War. Hostages to a hoax
> Martin Dunkin, producer of The Great Global Warming Swindle, reacts to the reactions that his documentary has created. 

Ethanol: the new Holy Water
> The inconvenient truth is that ethanol is bad for taxpayers, bad for air quality, bad for people who like to eat, and it will have no real effect on America’s overall energy mix - too bad DC’s politicians won’t say anything about it.

REAL NEWSPAPER #17, July 8, 2007 edition

Cattle mutilations: black ops, psyops, satanic or UFO?
> Of the holy triumvirate – UFOs, crop circles and cattle mutilations – the latter is probably the least known. Still, it has all the tell-tale marks of the other anomalous phenomena, raising the same spectre of possible explanations.

The Anthrax Letters: confirmation of false flag?
> The possibility that the anthrax attacks that followed in the wake of 9/11 were launched from within the US government became apparent once it was learned that the specific strain of anthrax found originated from a US military facility. Now a former Bush 1 advisor confirms his involvement.  

The Seeds of the Global Warming Police State
> Czech President Vaclav Klaus, drawing on his memories of Soviet oppression, recently declared that the global warming hysteria had replaced Communism as "the biggest threat to freedom, democracy, the market economy, and prosperity."

REAL NEWSPAPER #16, July 1, 2007 edition

Space Wars: Is World War III nigh?
> A new book argues that World War III might be upon us, and it will begin by a bizarre loss of satellites. Be warned... Or should that be: we want you to be afraid? 

Empty chairs at non-spinning empty tables
> One of the most creative minds of the 20th century, Arthur Koestler, was also a great sponsor of parapsychological research. But it appears that many are trying to forget about Koestler's Parapsychology Chair at Edinburgh University. Worse: parapsychology is removed from universities everywhere, it seems.  

Is Global Warming a Galactic phenomenon?
> Ian Brockwell argues that Global Warming (or climate change as some people prefer to call it) is the result of some influence from our own galaxy or beyond.

REAL NEWSPAPER #15, June 24, 2007 edition

Pope Benedict versus "the new Church"
> During his recent trip to Latin America, Pope Benedict XVI offended millions when he suggested that Catholicism had purified indigenous populations, and called the resurgence of indigenous religions a step backward. With the advent of New Age and Mayan beliefs in 2012 in the Western world, Benedict seems to go to the root of the "problem" and hopes to rock the cradle. But it is a dangerous gamble, that may see the end of the Church.  

The papal presidents
> A new trend in politics, one which seems set to rise in the run-up to the 2008 US elections, is the growing influence of religion on matters of state. The trend is not only there with Bush; it is also present in UK politics, specifically with Tony Blair.  

Bush and Blair: evidence they kill democracy
> In the US, a Government Accountability Office report confirms that Bush's use of presidential signing statements have the effect of nullifying the law in question in about 30 percent of cases. In Britain, the legal publisher Sweet & Maxwell published a study that showed Blair’s decade in power saw a jump in passing legislation which had circumvented most democratic processes.

REAL NEWSPAPER #14, June 17, 2007 edition

UFOs and the end of times
> Are UFOs signs of the Apocalypse? Though there is no evidence to suggest it, ever since the phenomenon arrived in 1947, some have seen it as proof that we live in the end times, before the Second Coming. An exploratory study reveals that UFOs within a religious framework may be a very dangerous thing.

Global warming... or how to increase profits and taxes
> Global warming, or how it is becoming evident that if you can make people believe the earth is dying, you can charge them for killing it by demanding extra taxes from them. 

Book Review: Unstoppable Global Warming - Every 1,500 Years
> "Unstoppable Global Warming - Every 1,500 Years" is written by S. Fred Singer and Dennis Avery (Rowman and Littlefield Publishers, 2007)

REAL NEWSPAPER #13, June 10, 2007 edition

Waving Sion’s flag
> One of the most controversial assaults are those against Jews – whether by Muslims, neo-Nazis or anyone else. But apart from a lot of false hysteria created for a range of purposes, there is also strong evidence that on many occasions, the Israeli intelligence agency Mossad has engineered false flag operations, so that Jews are made into the victims, so that the nation as a whole can have certain advantages it would otherwise never be able to attain. A preliminary enquiry.

New Terror laws in UK: police do not want them
> With outgoing Prime Minister Tony Blair and Home Secretary John Reid requesting more power to the police, specifically the authority to question people at random, without specific cause, the police has replied it does not want these new “powers”. 

Oil companies endorse Global Warming to support new drilling opportunities
> One of the critiques levelled against Global Warming deniers is that they are in the pay of oil companies. But it is now becoming clear that such desperate tactics to dissuade people from dissenting from the dogma are erroneous. In fact, for oil companies, global warming means new growth potential.

Global Warming Hysteria is a National Security Issue?
> Project for a New American Century stated that America should fight wars in key areas of the world, so that it could rule in “global peace”. After the failure of this policy in Iraq, anyone still in favour of this mission has needed to find new inroads. And that new inroad seems to be… global warming. Indeed, by stating that global warming will result in disasters, the US military have “suggested” they are the ones that should arbiter such conflicts. The end result might prove to be indistinguishable from Project for a New American Century?  

The Madrid Bombings: false flags?
> Amongst 9/11 and 7/7, the Madrid bombings of March 11, 2004, have received less attention. But a renewed interest is pointing people to the possible conclusion that it too may be a false flag operation. As to why: since 2004, Spain has suddenly been selling off billions of gold – possibly endangering the economy of that nation. Why?

In this special edition of THE REAL NEWSpaper, we place the question of Global Warming in a larger picture, equally posing the question: can – and do – we actively intervene in the weather – as a tool of global politics and warfare?

REAL NEWSPAPER #11, May 27, 2007 edition

Ashes of Faith
> A Christian apocalyptic cult in Uganda was responsible for one of the most horrific religious "incidents" in living memory, resulting in the death of one thousand people. Robert Bwire's investigation provides a landmark analysis of what happened... and why we, and especially America, should take note.   

REAL NEWSPAPER #10, May 20, 2007 edition

Free speech
> April 2007 has seen a spate of incidents which underline that free speech is on its way out, across the globe.  

Government Secrecy Act 1997
> The Los Angeles Times on Saturday, May 17, 1997 asked: "Is U.S. Keeping Too Many Secrets?" Ten years on, the answer seems to be yes – and it is getting progressively worse.

REAL NEWSPAPER #9, May 13, 2007 edition

Skull and Bones: the real story
> Is Skull and Bones as powerful as everyone believes they are? Or does their power come from elsewhere, like the fact that only extremely wealthy kids will only ever be considered?

Neutron bomb used in Iraq invasion?
> The US military used neutron weapons in the Battle of Baghdad, says a former commander of Iraq’s Republican Guard. And at least one retired US Army officer is backing up his charge.

NASA denies snubbing Russia’s moon offer
> After Russian claims that NASA declined to co-operate on a joint Moon mission, NASA has claimed no such offer was ever received.

A billion dollar scandal in the Vatican
> We revisit one of the biggest corruption scandals, in which one pope, John Paul I, was potentially murdered, and one banking president, Robert Calvi, was also murdered, despite initial appearances of a suicide.

The Dreyfus Affair
> In the week after French presidential elections, it is wise to look back at one of the most controversial lies politicians have ever spinned for their own advantage.

REAL NEWSPAPER #8, May 6, 2007 edition

David Kelly & the Iraq lie
> Did David Kelly, the man who had exposed the British government as making false claims to warrant the Iraqi invasion, commit suicide? Or was he instead murdered? If so, why? By whom?

Pentagon ending data-gathering system
> Following up on information about personal data gathering as being the weakest link in "Fortress America”", one system, Talon, is already being shut down.  

Moon history not repeated
> As in the early 1960s, the US continues to reject Russia’s helping hand in a joint moon exploration.  

REAL NEWSPAPER #7, April 29, 2007 edition

The Protocols of Zion
> Adored by conspiracy theories, the Protocols of Zion are a fabricated document (like the Iraqi Weapons of Mass Destruction dossiers), fabricated to start a war. Responsible for the Holocaust, and The Da Vinci Code, a century onwards, their true origins are explored.

Another apocalyptic president?
> Fear not… or do. George Bush is Rapture ready, but if John McCain makes the Oval Office his, there will be another president who is "ok to go" for the End of the World.

Don Ecker crashes out of UFO research
> Millions of people believe that the US Government is hiding aliens on ice and that UFOs are alien spacecraft. But one of the leading UFO researchers, Don Ecker, has said he is retiring from the field, upset with what is happening in the field: everyone is falling for the "UFO lie". 

Oklahoma City: The hunt for the second bomber
> Ten years post the Oklamoma City bombing, the hunt for "John Doe #2" is back on again… and a trail of death is uncovered in its wake.

Book review: The Treason Within
> The pharmaceutical industry wants you to be sick, and will do everything to keep you sick. A British doctor blows the whistle. 

The Vincennes Three
> A little-known incident in France in the early 1980s shows how the authorities arrested innocent people, threw them in jail, to promote a new anti-terrorist cell and further personal careers.

REAL NEWSPAPER #6, April 22, 2007 edition

Area 51 lawsuits
