Title: War Goes Nuclear on Pepsi -- You Stole Our Song!
Post by: paula-c on September 01, 2010, 06:47:02 PM

War Goes Nuclear on Pepsi -- You Stole Our Song! (http://www.tmz.com/2010/09/01/war-pepsi-lawsuit-why-cant-we-be-friends-commercial-band/)
9/1/2010 3:19 PM PDT by TMZ Staff  

The guys from War claim Pepsi stole their "signature song" for a national ad campaign ... and now the band is opening a $10 million can of whoop ass to make things right

(http://ll-media.tmz.com/2010/09/01/0901-war-pepsi-ex.jpg)

Ironically, it's all over the song "Why Can't We Be Friends?" -- which, according to a lawsuit filed in L.A. County Superior Court, is currently being used in an ad campaign for Pepsi Max.

According to War, the band "did not consent to the use of their performance" in the spot -- and claim the commercial is a "deliberate violation" of their licensing arrangements.

War ain't cheap -- the band wants more than $10 million in damages.

Calls to Pepsi have not been returned.

Exactly Souza.  They may be starting to send the American troops home from Iraq but I really think the only reason for that is so they can be sent somewhere else instead - war makes the "elite" too much money. I think Iraq may be this generation's Vietnam.  I wonder what they're planning next for their excuse to invade another country.

And a thank you to TMZ for doing what they can to warn us!

Ya, that's what I meant.  I just hope it's not another Pearl Harbour or 9/11.  

And thanks for the clip! I had forgotten about that movie.  So maybe more "wars" will be created when in actuality, the money is going elsewhere and the soldiers are being used for something else?  And that could be happening now as well.  Come to think of it, why does NASA seem to be have an endless budget?  I don't believe for a second that they're using that money for discovering the solar system and our galaxy.  I think spending money on THE PLANET WE LIVE ON would be more important than spending billions and billions on robots going to Mars.  If we're to believe that even happened in the first place.  I don't think what they're doing in space has anything to do with "exploration" or "discovery".

maybe they are trying to say that a new "9 / 11" will happen? and then accuses Iran .. and it starts again? Iran is using nuclear technology without any intention of war. USA then can use this argument for a new attack (War Goes Nuclear).

It couldn't be any clearer than that TMZ since several articles I saw these war messages and thought that I was looking to deep into it, I really fear a new 9/11 type event and the war against Iran is a very strong possibility. They are constantly focusing on Iran and its supposed nuclear weapons development. It's the same scenario that they are giving us with Irak and the weapons of mass destruction that as of today have still not been found...

I'm sure everyone's seen the nicname, Usrael (Israel the real voice behind Obama). And I agree this TMZ coded message does sound like another coming 911 or another Pearl Harbour both of which were inside jobs blamed on another to justify further bloodshed against Iraq and Japan.

My heart tells me there will be much suffering in the fulfillment of God's plan of history. But like God said to Joseph in the Old Testament, his brothers meant it for evil, but God meant it for good, referring to Joseph's pain and troubles at the hands of his brothers. I believe God is also saying, The best is yet to come. The restitution or consummation of all things.

Some say that war with Iran is a fact. Will lead it to us with his prodigal son Israel who will not just in conflict because leaving it may not American companies take part in the distribution of business history and USA is the father of the project. European powers know and as well as business with oil from Iran, will be forced to ally with Israel and USA to take part in the banquet. There is no turning back. countries to profiting from this mega energy project are eternal friends of us and that cannot and should condemn Israel before their atrocities because this small but powerful country, is just doing his job, is the conscious bait. Israel is in the game because it will receive part of energy, and you will be the spoils of the occupation in Iranian territory to its expansion and awarded largest will be appended Palestine (or what is left of it) and ejected people forever. It is the power in that area; but always under the American tutelage.

Wars was invent in laboratories to take possession of the riches of other Nations. The political issues "generated them" are just pretexts.

Tony Blair memoirs: we must be prepared for attack on Iran

The international community has to be prepared to take military action against Iran if the regime develops a nuclear weapon, Tony Blair has said in an interview to promote his memoirs, A Journey.

Published: 8:57AM BST 01 Sep 2010

(http://i.telegraph.co.uk/telegraph/multimedia/archive/01706/tony-Blair_1706284c.jpg)

He said it was ''wholly unacceptable'' for Tehran to seek a nuclear weapons capability and insisted there could be ''no alternative'' to military force ''if they continue to develop nuclear weapons''.
Speaking to BBC journalist Andrew Marr, Mr Blair said: ''I am saying that I think it is wholly unacceptable for Iran to have a nuclear weapons capability and I think we have got to be prepared to confront them, if necessary militarily.

''I think there is no alternative to that if they continue to develop nuclear weapons. They need to get that message loud and clear.''
In the interview, to be shown on BBC2 on Wednesday night, Mr Blair also said he was ''desperately sorry'' for the relatives of those killed in Iraq but insisted leaving Saddam Hussein in power would have been a ''bigger risk'' to security than removing him.
He was ''sorry for the lives cut short'' but did not regret the decision to go to war.

Unrepentant Tony Blair Calls for Iran Attacks

Back in the Public Eye With Memoirs, Blair Looks to Start More Wars
by Jason Ditz, September 01, 2010

Back in the public eye with the release of his memoirs, former British Prime Minister Tony Blair might lead one to believe it is 2003 all over again. Praising George W. Bush as a great leader and one of the most decisive men he had ever met, Blair also lauds the Iraq War.

(http://news.antiwar.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/blair.jpg)

And if the Iraq War has somewhat faded in Americans’ memories with the myriad false declarations of victory in recent weeks, it is a much more bitter taste in Britain, where public hearings continue into how the nation was brought into such a disastrous conflict. Blair however chides antiwar people to “keep an open mind” and insists that the war was a great success.

So great a success in fact that he seems eager to replicate it with a similar war against Iran on similarly false pretenses. How similar? Blair actually cites 9/11 and accuses Iran of “developing nuclear weapons” before concluding that there is “no alternative” to a military attack on them.

The invasion of the much small Iraq came on the basis of false links to 9/11 and false claims of the Iraqi government developing nuclear weapons. In addition to thousands of troops which died in the 7+ years of military occupation, an unknown and perhaps unknowable number of Iraqis were also slain. The number varies, from conservatively a few hundred thousand to well over a million.

We already know that Iraq had no weapons of mass destruction.  They are trying to pull the same trick on Iran now.  

Remember what Nick Rockefeller told Aaron Russo, 11 months before 9/11.  We covered all that in our video Michael Jackson's Message part 1.  Maybe it's time to watch it again.

I posted this article before and I will do it again, because I find it trully relevant, due to the fact that it is a "modern" approach on Albert Pike's perspective and plan of the WW3 (1871):

"The Third World War must be fomented by taking advantage of the differences caused by the "agentur" of the "Illuminati" between the political Zionists and the leaders of Islamic World. The war must be conducted in such a way that Islam (the Moslem Arabic World) and political Zionism (the State of Israel) mutually destroy each other. Meanwhile the other nations, once more divided on this issue will be constrained to fight to the point of complete physical, moral, spiritual and economical exhaustion…We shall unleash the Nihilists and the atheists, and we shall provoke a formidable social cataclysm which in all its horror will show clearly to the nations the effect of absolute atheism, origin of savagery and of the most bloody turmoil. Then everywhere, the citizens, obliged to defend themselves against the world minority of revolutionaries, will exterminate those destroyers of civilization, and the multitude, disillusioned with Christianity, whose deistic spirits will from that moment be without compass or direction, anxious for an ideal, but without knowing where to render its adoration, will receive the true light through the universal manifestation of the pure doctrine of Lucifer, brought finally out in the public view. This manifestation will result from the general reactionary movement which will follow the destruction of Christianity and atheism, both conquered and exterminated at the same time."

The article goes like this:
 
Carl Herman
LA County Nonpartisan Examiner

British military insider: World War III is being staged; starting with Israel and Iran
February 18th, 2010 8:07 pm PT

US “leadership” and their corporate media minions are pushing juvenile-level propaganda for war with Iran; lies that anyone can verify with a few moments’ attention. If you haven’t already confirmed the Orwellian-level disinformation, stop and read the above two links now.

Many people hypothesize the confirmed lies for wars with Iraq and Afghanistan, and a final war with Iran, is to control oil. Connected is the theory that US political and economic “masters” are so confident in their propaganda, and so correct in their conclusion that the critical mass of humanity is too feeble to stop them, that they brazenly move forward for global hegemony.
 
This article provides a different explanation of the facts; with heightened urgency to prevent war with Iran, as it is a planned step to begin a Third World War.
 
Project Camelot is a world-renowned safe-haven for whistle-blowers on the inside of the military and economic “Big Lies” that millions of Americans are discovering. Below is Bill Ryan’s video explanation of his interview with a vetted British military insider discussing the planning of manipulated global war (transcript here).
 
This testimony centers around the fear of a cataclysmic Earth geological event alleged, in part, by one group of extraterrestrials (ETs). For those readers who haven’t explored the documentation of US government cover-up of ET existence, I suggest perusing Wanttoknow.info and The Disclosure Project.
 
The highlights from Bill Ryan in five bullet-points and nine paragraphs:
 
• There is a planned Third World War, which will be nuclear and biological. Our source believes that this is on track to be initiated within the next 18-24 months.
 
• It is planned to begin with a strike by Israel on Iran. Either Iran or China will be provoked into a nuclear response. After a brief nuclear exchange, there will be a ceasefire. The world will be thrown into fear and chaos - all carefully engineered.
 
• The extreme state of tension will be used to justify heavy social and military controls in all western first world nations. Plans are already in place for that.
 
• During the nuclear ceasefire, there is planned to be a covert release of biological weapons. These will initially be targeted against the Chinese. As our source chillingly told us, "China will catch a cold". Biological warfare will spread further, to the west. Infrastructure will be critically weakened.
 
• This is intended to be just the beginning. After this, a full nuclear exchange would be triggered: the "real" war, with widespread destruction and loss of life. Our source tells us that the planned population reduction through these combined means is 50%. He heard this figure stated in the meeting.
 
This horrific scenario has been planned for generations. The first two world wars were part of the set-up for this final apocalypse - as is the centralization of financial resources that was precipitated with the equally well-planned financial collapse of October 2008.
 
As if all this were not enough, our source speculates this is all set against the backdrop of a coming "geophysical event" - the same kind of event as was experienced by our ancestors approximately 11,500 years ago. If this event occurs - not necessarily expected in 2012, but sometime in the next decade - it would destroy civilization as we know it, dwarfing even the effects of a nuclear war.
 
I asked the question to our source: If there's an expected catastrophe, then why initiate a Third World War? His answer, for the first time to me, made terrible sense.
 
The real goal, he explained, is to set up the post-catastrophic world. To ensure that this "New World" [note the term] is the one the controllers want, totalitarian control structures need to be in place when the catastrophe occurs - with an excuse that the populace will accept and demand them. Martial law in the right, carefully chosen countries before the catastrophe occurs will enable the "right" people to survive and prosper in the post-catastrophic world, and the beginning of the next 11,500 year cycle. What may have been carefully planned on a covert global scale, for the last several generations, is nothing less than who will inherit the Earth.
 
Who are the "right" people? The white Caucasians. This may be why the name of this project is The Anglo-Saxon Mission. Hence the justification for the planned genocide of the Chinese people - so that the New World is inherited by "us", not "them".
 
Our source was not informed about the planned fate of the second and third world countries such as those in South America, Africa and Asia. But he presumes that these would be allowed to fend for themselves and probably not survive well - or maybe not at all. The totalitarian military governments of the western, white, people are set to be the inheritors.
 
This is a plan so evil, so racist, so diabolical, so huge, that it almost defies belief. But it all aligns with what many commentators, researchers and whistleblowing insiders have been identifying for some years now. For me personally, it's the clearest picture yet of why the world is the way it is, and why the secrets are protected so fiercely: it may be all about racial supremacy. The Fourth Reich is alive and well.
 
Astonishingly, our source was not pessimistic. He stressed, as do we and many other researchers and commentators, that consciousness is awakening rapidly all over the planet and that THESE PLANNED EVENTS ARE NOT INEVITABLE. If ever there was a reason to work closely together to raise awareness of the real threat to us all, this is it.


I don't know how much of it is actually real, but to me the war with Iran is imminent and the Zionists are already preparing for it. Israeli army is testing their airforce in Romania, stating they need to prepare for this type of relief. Romanian relief is similar to Iran and they admitted they want to practice for Iran. They had a couple of helicopters down up to this moment... This is not good! S.O.S.!


LOVE,
Andy
