Obama administration signals legalization of drugs

Posted By on June 23, 2009

On May 14 The Wall Street Journal reported that the Obama administration is ending the “War on Drugs.” Drug czar Gil Kerlikowske explained that the war rhetoric was being abandoned because people perceive the war on drugs as a war against people.

Obama plan to bulldoze shrinking U.S. cities

Posted By on June 23, 2009

Tom Leonard at Global Research reports on the Obama administration’s plan to bulldoze neighborhoods in U.S. cities that have shrunk drastically due to outmigration and high foreclosure rates. This plan originated in Flint, Michigan, formerly home to 79,000 auto workers at the General Motors plant. The workforce has shrunk to 8000 autoworkers due to downsizing. Outmigration from Flint has left entire neighborhoods empty. Flint’s bright idea to continue governing was to consolidate its population in a few neighborhoods and bulldoze the relatively empty sectors. This plan will now be applied to at least 50 U.S. cities that have experience high rates of outmigration and home foreclosures.

In Flint the local government has been authorized by law to buy distressed properties and destroy them. The government also buys properties in better neighborhoods and offers a relocation package to those still living in poorer neighborhoods.

NWOU was not aware that there is a Shrinking Cities in Global Perspective program at the University of California, Berkeley, to deal with the problems globalism causes.

Sponsors of the plan are using the New World Order “sustainability” and “return to nature” rhetoric to serve as balms for their destructive globalist policies.
