Perhaps someone in this nation can start a news network so that we can stay informed on what is going on! (It’s called sarcasm!) Think about it! – Jesse, Editor, TvNewsLIES.org

POLITICS : http://www.tvnewslies.org/news#politics

TVNL Comment: This type of charge can be seen all up and down the towers on many videos from many angles. These charges are going off from 20-50 floors below the fall line. If you research controlled demolitions and you view videos of "cutter charges" you will realize that what is taking place during the WTC collapse is a series of charges going off in advance of the fall line during the collapse. What took place that day was a controlled demolition of the WTC in our opinion.

HUMAN RIGHTS WATCH : http://www.tvnewslies.org/news/#rights

· Osama's driver can be tried: court - The protections of the 1949 Geneva Convention do not apply to al-Qaida and its members, the appeals court ruled, so Hamdan does not have a right to enforce its provisions in court.

This is very scary. You can vanish off the streets because you may have a phone number of someone who once met a person who's cousin's friend had a picture of Osama bin Laden!
