New groundbreaking research by scientists at Trinity College Dublin has found that exposure to nanoparticles can have a serious impact on health, linking it to rheumatoid arthritis and the development of other serious autoimmune diseases. The findings that have been recently published in the international journal Nanomedicine have health and safety implications for the manufacture, use and ultimate disposal of nanotechnology products and materials. They also identified new cellular targets for the development of potential drug therapies in combating the development of autoimmune diseases.

Environmental pollution including carbon particles emitted by car exhaust, smoking and long term inhalation of dust of various origins have been recognised as risk factors causing chronic inflammation of the lungs. The link between smoking and autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis has also been established. This new research now raises serious concerns in relation to similar risks caused by nanotechnology products which if not handled appropriately may contribute to the generation of new types of airborne pollutants causing risks to global health.

In their research, the Nanomedicine and Molecular Imaging team at Trinity College Dublin’s School of Medicine led by Professor of Molecular Medicine, Yuri Volkov investigated whether there was a common underlying mechanism contributing to the development of autoimmune diseases in human cells following their exposure to a wide range of nanoparticles containing different physical and chemical properties.

The scientists applied a wide range of nanomaterials including ultrafine carbon black, carbon nanotubes and silicon dioxide particles of different sizes, ranging from 20 to 400 nanometres, to human cells derived from the lining of the airway passages, and to the cells of so-called phagocytic origin − those cells that are most frequently exposed to the inhaled foreign particles or are tasked with cleaning up our body from them. At the same time, collaborating researchers from the Health Effects Laboratory Division, National Institute for Occupational Safety & Health (Morgantown, WV, USA) have conducted the studies in mice exposed to chronic inhalation of air contaminated with single walled carbon nanotubes.

The result was clear and convincing: all types of nanoparticles in both the TCD and US study were causing an identical response in human cells and in the lungs of mice, manifesting in the specific transformation of the amino acid arginine into the molecule called citrulline which can lead to the development of autoimmune conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis.

¤ WOW… Lord Christopher Monckton on Rio+20… a “Mad Gig”… the Cabal’s Attempts to Bring About One World Government Failed… “The Game is Up”… VIDEO and MP3

[UPDATE 2058 HST: For a bit more detailed look into this conference, including the lavish accommodations, see this Alex Jones interview of Lord Monckton, on site at the Rio-20. Thank you Kendall for sharing this!!]

Thanks so much to Ally for sending this to my attention. This video statement appears to be quite a big confirmation of some great news… that the attempts to bring about a “One World Government” at the Rio+20 conference have failed.

Yesterday, the Drake and company had mentioned “Agenda 21″, and the intent to create a “One World Government.” Then here’s what Ben started his article with today.

“Last week the cabal controlled media in the West tried to pretend the Rio summit was a failure even though $513 billion was pledged by 100 nations to fight poverty and environmental destruction. It was a cabal failure because $513 billion that, in the past, would have been handed over to the rich by the poor is instead being given by middle income countries to the poorest countries. This is undeniable proof the international boycott of the war-mongering, mass murdering leaders of the United States and many European countries is intensifying. The cabalists are trying to pass the pain on to their own slave people and this is why there is a “financial crisis” in the West.”

So now we have this video, from Liberty News Network, with Lord Christopher Monckton, chief policy advisor to the Science and Public Policy Institute and former science advisor to Margaret Thatcher, explaining, exactly that happened.

This is only a 10 minute video, so listen carefully and enjoy the message. I’ll throw in the highlights below. Just below the video is the accompanying text.

Note: “Pointy head” apparently is a term that means something like, “intellectual, especially in a self-important or impractical way.”

Highlights

• 0:55 Whole conference had “stink of death upon it”.
• 2:50 The real ambition [of Greenpeace] has nothing to do with the environment.
• 3:20 Had everything to do with destroying the economies of the West, from within.
• 4:15 From their [cabal's] point of view, conference was a failure.
• 4:30 The cabal [Kp's word] intentions were to allow the U.N. to become effectively a one world government (Al Gore, Jacques Chirac, et al, have been talking about it).
• 6:10 The original document (of Rio?) concluded that not climate change, but poverty was the main problem in the world.
• 7:15 The fact that poverty is considered number 1, focuses attention on bringing the world out of poverty.
• 8:00 Prosperity stabilizes the world population.
• 9:00 Our footprint on the world should not be too heavy.
• 9:26 But these concerns were not discussed at the conference, rather they were effectively talking about means of bringing freedom to an end worldwide.
• 9:37+ They lost. They lost big time… The game is up.

Lord Christopher Monckton, chief policy advisor to the Science and Public Policy Institute and former science advisor to Margaret Thatcher, tells The New American from Rio that the just-concluded Rio+20 conference was not about saving the planet or eradicating poverty, but about shackling the plant under global government. He also optimistically stresses that the “pointy heads here in Rio” have failed despite their declaration of success and that “the game is up.” Video produced by http://www.libertynewsnetwork.tv

¤ Syrie : certitudes et incertitudes de la guerre médiatique

Enarque, essayiste français, et maire d’une commune rurale, Roland Hureaux a derrière lui une… En savoir plus sur cet auteur

Pour notre chroniqueur associé Roland Hureaux, les reporters occidentaux présents en Syrie se laissent trop souvent tenter par le piège du manichéisme dans un contexte certainement plus ambivalent qu’il n’en a l’air dans la presse.

(Manifestation devant l’ambassade de Syrie en Jordanie, juin 2012 – Mohammad Hannon/AP/SIPA)

Il n’est pas nécessaire d’être un partisan du régime du président Assad, mais simplement un observateur aimant la vérité pour être perplexe devant les récits d’atrocités liées à ce qu’il faut bien appeler la  guerre civile de  Syrie. Le nombre total de victimes (10 000, 20 000?) est très incertain, comme il advient d’ailleurs dans  toutes les tragédies de ce genre où bienheureux est l’observateur ou l’historien qui peut déjà avoir une idée du nombre de zéros.

L’autre question est de savoir qui est responsable de ces massacres. Dès lors qu’il y a deux camps disposant d’armements létaux, on peut supposer, comme dans toutes les guerres,  que le bilan est partagé, sans doute inégalement mais partagé quand même, surtout si certains adversaires d’Assad se réclament d’Al-Qaida, qui ne passe pas pour une organisation humanitaire. Mais dès lors que sont annoncées  des atrocités, la presse occidentale, c’est-à-dire les journaux papiers à grand tirage et les grands médias audiovisuels (internet est à mettre à part) est quasi-unanime à en imputer immédiatement la responsabilité au régime.

Tel fut le cas de la récente tuerie de Houla (108 mots dont 49 enfants, dit-on. Mais qui a lancé ces chiffres si précis et qui peut les certifier?). La presse occidentale a immédiatement accusé les forces du régime d’Assad alors même que cette ville était, semble-t-il, contrôlée par l’opposition. Les pays occidentaux et arabes ont aussitôt renvoyé les ambassadeurs de Syrie en représailles contre le pouvoir en place. Or les informations reçues depuis renforcent l’hypothèse que la responsabilité de ce massacre pourrait  plutôt  revenir aux opposants (more…)
