This is just taking the piss.
Y'know, there is a line in the movie "V For Vendetta" where an ordinary Joe is watching a TV in a pub while that movie's Orwellian state broadcaster (the "BTN") dishes up another pile of steaming BS to the masses and he says to all present "Does anyone believe this bo*locks?".
Well we know we've been at that stage and beyond for a good old while but this is outrageous even by Babylon's standards.

Japan issues travel alert for Europe

Japan's Foreign Ministry issued a travel alert on Monday for Japanese nationals living or travelling in Europe, warning of "possible terrorist attacks" by al-Qaeda and affiliated groups.
The warning followed an alert from Washington, which said attackers may use "a variety of means and weapons and target both official and private interests" in Europe.
France and Britain immediately voiced support for the US security statement, which said "current information suggests that al-Qaeda and affiliated organisations continue to plan terrorist attacks."
The Japanese alert urges its citizens living or travelling in Europe to exercise full caution at possible attack targets, such as government and police facilities, public transport systems and tourist spots.
The US alert - which the State Department issued regarding specific events, and is one step down from a full travel warning - followed intelligence reports that suggested an al-Qaeda attack could be imminent.
"European governments have taken action to guard against a terrorist attack and some have spoken publicly about the heightened threat conditions," the State Department said.

Twin attacks strike at Western targets in Yemen
6 October 2010 Last updated at 12:44
Twin attacks on Western targets in Yemen's capital, Sanaa, have left one person dead and at least four injured.
Militants fired a rocket-propelled grenade at a British embassy car, slightly injuring one staff member as well as bystanders, officials said.
In the other incident, a security guard at an Austrian gas company near Sanaa opened fire killing a French contractor and badly injuring a UK contractor.
| Quote: | | In other words a bunk story to ramp up the terror threat BS |
Yemen has seen a string of militant attacks on Western targets.
The armoured UK embassy car was said to have been carrying the deputy chief of the British mission in Yemen when it was hit by shrapnel from the blast.
In a statement, the UK Foreign Office said the attack happened at about 0815 local time (0515 GMT).
"The vehicle was on its way to the British embassy with five embassy staff on board," the statement said.
The BBC's Yolande Knell says there have been recent warnings of al-Qaeda attacks
"One member of staff suffered minor injuries and is undergoing treatment, all others were unhurt. We are informing their families at the moment. We are aware of at least two bystanders injured during the attack, and are seeking further details."
'Risks highlighted'
UK Foreign Secretary William Hague described the attack as "shameful".
"This morning's attack... highlights the risks our diplomats face working for Britain's interests abroad," he said.
"I am full of admiration for the way our embassy is dealing with this difficult situation.
"This shameful attack on British diplomats will only redouble Britain's determination to work with the government of Yemen to help address the challenges that country faces."
The other attack happened inside the compound of the Austrian gas company OMV, near Sanaa. The compound was surrounded by security forces and the gunman was eventually disarmed.
Continue reading the main story
In a statement, OMV said the French national who died had worked for OMV as a procurement officer. It said that the UK contractor, who worked as an expert within the branch office, was being treated in hospital for serious injuries.
The company said it saw no political background for the action taken by the Yemeni security guard.
OMV is in contact with the contractor companies and embassies to provide full support, it said.
The attacks come two days after Yemeni authorities tightened security around embassies in the capital amid warnings about a planned strike by al-Qaeda.
In April a suicide bomber threw himself at the British ambassador's two-car convoy in Sanaa as it neared the embassy compound.
The blast injured three passers-by and damaged a police car.
Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP) later claimed responsibility for the attack.
The embassy was closed for two weeks as a result.
Yemen has been plagued by decades of poverty and instability, and its high numbers of unemployed youths are seen as potential recruits for Islamist militant groups.
More than 40% of Yemen's population live on less than $2 (£1.25) a day.

| Quote: | ... ... ...Yemen is perhaps an excellent example of America being on the “wrong side of a world revolution,” as the secret war in Yemen being exacerbated in the name of “fighting al-Qaeda” is in actuality, about the expansion and supremacy of American power in the region. It is about the suppression of natural democratic, local, revolutionary elements throughout the country seeking self-autonomy in changing the nation from its current despotic, authoritarian rule sympathetic to American interests, into a nation of their own choosing. It is about repressing struggles for liberation.
This brings in the involvement of Saudi Arabia, itself interested in ensuring Yemen is a loyal neighbour; so they too must suppress indigenous movements within Yemen seeking autonomy, especially those that are Shi’a Muslims, as the Saudi state is a strict Wahhabist Sunni Muslim regime. Shi’as are primarily represented in the region through the state of Iran, Saudi Arabia’s “natural” enemy; both vying for influence in Iraq and both vying for influence in Yemen. Through this we see another key American imperial aim in this war, that of seeking to stir up a conflict with Iran, perhaps through a proxy-war within Yemen, or perhaps in hopes that the proxy war would expand into a regional war between Saudi Arabia and Iran, naturally drawing in Israel, Egypt and the United States. Finally, we have the strategic location of Yemen to consider, bridging one of the largest oil transport routes in the world, parallel to Somalia and the Horn of Africa (where America is waging another war, again on the “wrong side of a world revolution”). ... ... ... |

US issues terror alert for European cities and European leaders fall in line

The US State Department issued a terror alert Sunday for American citizens traveling anywhere in the continent of Europe, an unprecedented action that seems calculated to spread alarm without actually helping anyone avoid becoming the target of a terrorist attack. The Pentagon imposed a weekend curfew on troops at the US Air Force Base at Ramstein, Germany, ordering soldiers not to wear their uniforms off base "in response to a threat condition."
Britain, Japan, Sweden and Canada all followed suit, issuing alerts to their own citizens who might be traveling to Europe. In each case, they cited the US alert as evidence that there was an increased danger of a terrorist attack at European transit hubs and tourist attractions.
The actual statement from the US government speaks only of "the potential for terrorist attacks," without any specifics. "Current information suggests that Al Qaeda and affiliated organizations continue to plan terrorist attacks," the State Department said.
Since this has likely been true of every day since Osama bin Laden issued his "declaration of war" against the United States in 1996, it is not clear that the alert has any objective basis or represents a new threat.

It looks like they're building up to the next phase of the Fascist Shift.
