Of course the Zimmerman "rescue" was a fake.

What's even more unbelievable is that more people didn't doubt it immediately in this 24-7 cycle of mostly obvious puffed-up and made-up news stories, not to mention that the source was a Zimmerman friend on the same Sanford Police Department that tried to help Zimmerman get away without even being arrested or tried for pursuing and murdering a child.

Before very many facts about this "rescue" were in, certain self-styled "skeptics" (who pretend they are the only true rationalists) rushed to uphold an official story and bait those who saw the obvious as "conspiracy theorists." Embarrassing.

We have seen news reports of protesters doing thousands of dollars of damage to be wrong. The claims of separate attacks by protesters over the Zimmerman verdict turned out to be false. Now added to the list of false news reports appears to be the story of George Zimmerman heroically rescuing a family of four from a burning SUV.

The initial report was that George Zimmerman was ‘just coincidentally’ driving by after a car accident occurred, that he leaped out of his vehicle, fire extinguisher in hand, to come to the rescue of the family of four trapped inside as the vehicle caught fire, pulling them to safety. That was followed by the claim that the family he rescued had planned a press event to thank George Zimmerman, but that they canceled due to threats from Trayvon Martin supporters.

It appears they may have canceled the event because they did not want to be part of the fraud of making Zimmerman out to be a hero, when that story was not precisely true.

What did occur was that an accident occurred where a car slid on it’s side into a median. People at the scene called 911, which went to the Sanford office of the Seminole County Sheriff’s Office. BEFORE responding to the 911 call, News Ball.com reports that Seminole Sheriff’s Dept. Officer Patrick Rehder, a self-styled friend and supporter of Zimmerman, contacted Zimmerman by cell phone directing him to go to the accident so as to appear to be a hero. News Ball.com also provides a social media screen capture of a curious statement about Rehder taking pleasure when someone gets credit for something they did not do.

A trillion dollars a year for war, and who's the enemy?

US taxpayers spend a trillion dollars per annum to sustain an industry of global war, in a typical year killing thousands. Who is the enemy? Your elected government says that's a secret!

Who Are We at War With? That's Classified

Obama said the US is at war with 'Al Qaeda, the Taliban and their associated forces." So who exactly are those associated forces?
