 Has sourcewatchDescription
"Arab Spring"http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/Arab SpringA neologism coined by western Establishments to describe a series of allegedly 'popular uprisings' that occurred throughout the Arab world from December 2010 through to around mid-2012 and which were planned triggered and orchestrated by western Deep State interests using well developed 'Colour revolution' methodologies.
"Bailout"http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/BailoutA globally organised shift of money from ordinary taxpayers to the already hyper-rich who control the banking and political systems.
"Climate change"http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/Climate changethe dogma that rise in CO2 levels correspond to a (as of yet non-significant) rise in temperature and that the world is ahead of an apocalyptic disaster
"Conspiracy theorist"http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/Conspiracy theoristAn enemy image used for ad hominem attacks on people as a way of misdirecting attention away from their arguments
"Conspiracy theory"http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/Conspiracy theoryAn enemy image used to equate scepticism of government with craziness. It was developed by the CIA to try to contain doubt about the FBI's "Oswald did it, case closed" approach to the JFK assassination. It is now being associated with dangerous and violent insanity, in an effort to promote internet censorship of free speech.
"Counter-terrorism"http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/Counter-terrorismA component of the military-industrial-terrorism-congressional complex which has seen a dramatic growth since 9-11. Originally referred to special forces trained in terrorist warfare, it became a broader meaning for loss of civil liberties and a culture of fear and mistrust.
"Democracy"http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/DemocracyA form of government involving events called "elections", in which citizens often choose from a short list of deep state backed puppets
"Extraordinary rendition"http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/Extraordinary renditionKidnapping and forced transfer of individuals by intelligence agencies from one legal jurisdiction to another without recourse to legal proceedings.

"National security"http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/National securityLike the idea of 'Patriotism', the notion of 'National Security' is one designed to bind all members of a society together. By evoking fear of its opposite it creates a suitable psychological frame for the abdication of personal responsibility to the nation state. In the 21st century, the concept is repeated like a mantra in en effort to justify ever more opaqueness in the workings of governments tired of legal restrictions such as rights of their citizens.

Bush with the support of the UK, and most NATO members (at least formally) and other Western-aligned countries.

EventDescription
Ford FoundationIn addition to its own billionaire agenda, also known to have been $$$ middleman for covert CIA funding.
Open Society FoundationsA NGO operating in more countries than McDonald's. It has the tendency to support politicians (at times through astroturfing) and activists that get branded as "extreme left" as its founder is billionaire and bane of the pound George Soros. This polarizing perspective causes the abnormal influence of the OSF to go somewhat unanswered.
