    Hi everyone, Mr. Anon here aka James Corbett. How do you do? I look forward to talking to you.

    • debbie.goings says:

      In your email today you asked for suggestions as to what to do on your enforced vacation. Before I give my suggestion, I would like to thank you for all your diligent work and courage in educating all of us about the NWO and its gruesome spiderweb of deception and evil.

      As for something to do on your vacation, I would humbly suggest that you read the Bible if you have never done so. While it seems like the world has gone mad, God is still in control. I do not know why he allows so much evil and suffering to exist, but I do know it is not because he doesn’t care: he sent his son to die for those who trust in him for salvation. This was supreme suffering for us. It is my fervent prayer that you and your family come to know the Savior in a personal way. So many good people do not. We all think that living a good life will get us to heaven, but we don’t realize that a perfect life is the standard, which no one can achieve. Jesus lived this perfect life and paid for our sins on the cross. We are then justified through faith. His perfect record is transferred to us. Heaven is a free gift, but we must trust in Jesus our salvation, not in ourselves. May I suggest Tim Keller on youtube to learn more about this. Tim Keller is a pastor in NYC who very articulately and humbly explains all this much better than I do, in an interesting way. I will end with this Bible verse: What does it profit a man if he gains the whole world but loses his soul? God bless you, James, your wife, your son, and all of your extended family. I pray God will also bless your work.

      • BillC says:

        Debbie – Great message! As a Christian it dismays me to see so many Christians supporting death, torture, mayhem and the spreading of disease and disfigurement. It is encouraging to find fellow Christians supporting truth and liberty. I second your message to James and your prayers and wishes for him and his family.

    Hi everyone.

    My name is Anna. I work as a teacher by day and by night I am an activist, writing blogs at teachersjourneytolife.com, sociology.org and also soon for the Hampton Institute.

    My primary passion is education – especially the self-education needed to get us all out of the mess we’re in on this planet. I do vlogs every Sunday on my Youtube channel, where I’m at the moment doing a series at the moment titled Self-Educating Humanity.

    I decided to sign up and support James because he is one of the few people (they can literally be counted on one hand) that I have come across who shares sound and commonsensical information and perspectives about what’s really going on in this world.

    People like James are greatly needed in a time where cognitive disinformation is served for breakfast, lunch and dinner in every home. The more I dig into the depths of this rabbit-hole of madness, the more layers of the veil that I uncover for myself – the more I realize how everything I was taught was true, isn’t.

    I am here because I have realized how important it is to stand together to dismantle the lie that this world has become, so that we can create a real home for ourselves on this planet and create a world that we would want our children to be born into. I support the end of abuse of all life and living beings, through equal self-responsibility for this earth.

    Oh, and I would like to see more females join the alt.media!

    Glad to be here.

    • dubrey says:

      Hey, Anna Glad to meet you ,, This is how it works! Read Anna’s comment/visit “a teachers Journey” website/access “archives”/read “the puppetry of puberty” (because my granddaughter is in that experience at this time)/watch the superb presentation “propaganda-full english version (2012)” on youtube. I can only wonder how different life for me would have been had the internet evolved to what it is, 30 years earlier. Thanks for your contribution, Bob

    Hello from Leeds, UK.

    I’m a linguist and journalist in training. I’m a huge fan of the Corbett Report! Looking forward to putting the world to rights with you guys.

    I hope to have some content of my own up soon, but it is in the works.

    Pleasure to be here.

  5. dubrey says:

    Greetings from Franklin, Wisconsin USA. From a tool and die maker.
    I am also glad to be part of the team.
    I heard of the Corbett Report while listening to Bob Chapman’s program and was curious as to who this really smart guy was that made such a startling impression on Mr Chapman. The rest is history.
    Thanks.

    Hi All,

    Writing from the west coast of Ireland. I have been following James for some time now , at least since 2011, and I have to echo what Anna has so well said that….

    “James (is one of ) few people…. that I have come across who shares sound and commonsensical information and perspectives about what’s really going on in this world”

    It was good to see his interview on RT with Abby Martin recently.

    I hope that this area really flourishes and motivates people to come up with new and exciting modes and methods of getting the word out.

    Take care

    Seán

    Hey everyone. Chris in the US here. Been listening to Corbettreport.com for about a year now. Great stuff. I don’t have a website or anything but I’m always spreading good info sources as much as I can. Especially people who are into the alt media but have fallen down one of the many pitfalls. I look forward to contributing to this community and James great idea to have a comment system, and I look forward to it evolving and taking shape.

  9. michaelnh78 says:

    Hello Corbett Report lovers,

    I am Michael and leaving comments is one of my least favorite things :). I love Permaculture, music, history (in small doses), and any of a million things that catch my interest for however long they do. I am currently working on providing food for my community all year round, which in New Hampshire is a fun challenge, and taking time to stop, breathe, and enjoy myself.

    Looking forward to seeing this community grow.I may even comment here and there.

    Breathe in creations dream and exhale your visionary tale! :)

    • nwherbalist says:

      Michael, hello my fellow farmer/permaculturist. Hope you are well and do you have any fun projects to share?

      • michaelnh78 says:

        Oh man, I commented and never returned (until today), that was not intentional.

        My current project is a 70’x30′ high tunnel greenhouse that we are transforming into an all season greenhouse. I am taking my time since the more I learn the more I realize I need to learn :). I am focusing my efforts on three things (2 more so than the third), Heating with compost via the Jean Pain method, building a rocket mass heater, and getting my feet wet with aquaponics :). I am also taking this time before the cold comes to insulate the end walls and figure something out for the north wall. The greenhouse placement was not actually very well thought out (type 1 design error), but it is not my greenhouse and I was not involved in that part of the process, I came along later.

    Hi, my names’s Dave, i’m from England although i’ve been around a bit, i even taught english in Asia like James did a long, long time ago. Now i’m a gardener. I’m interested in everything, except football.

  11. rico says:

    Hello all.

    Rico here. I’m an old guy who began waking up during the Viet Nam war. I smelled a rat even as a student in an American public high school. For many years I thought I was staying awake because I listened to NPR. About three years ago I began to smell that rat again, and started to dive deeper into the internet, searching for some semblance of truth. Early on, I stumbled upon James (probably thru You Tube). I have stuck with him as one of my main sources. His integrity and quality of work are top drawer. Besides, I love the story of his journey as the “everyman”.

    Looking forward to interacting here….

    Greetings, my name is Scott from Calgary. I stand at the forefront of evolutionary consciousness ( often with my fly open) and I love the Corbett Report as much as all of you. I’m inspired by James to move to a more open source philosophy and way of living as this is the answer to creating a sustainable human presence on our planet.

    • shopbruce says:

      Hi Scott – Bruce from Mexico here – I tried the “fly open” trick and no one noticed! :-( Story of my life! ja ja A smile is universal! Keep informed, follow your inner self and help others along the way!

  13. jgreer says:

    Quick Hello from Nashville, Tennessee! Thank you to James for all he does to keep us informed. He has played a significant part of my waking up to reality. I still haven’t found my own place in helping spread the information, but I appreciate all the well reasoned and researched information that he and his associates present.

    I simply don’t have the time to do the research and connect all the dots for myself. With a wife & 3 kids under 10, and a workload that tends to keep me away from those 4 most-important people way too often, I find it very difficult to keep up with the REAL news on my own, let alone keep the information in a proper historical and ideological perspective.

    James’s extremely concise and powerful packages of information (whether they arrive in the form of an interview, round-table OR documentary) fill a vital need in my life to understand current events in a context that’s far broader than the default left-right paradigm. And the packages are easily shared. All of that is why I support him.

    Thank you James! We remember you and your family in our thoughts and prayers often!

    • dogdoc says:

      Jgreer,

      So many of us are in the same boat, too much to do with too little time. What we have at our disposal however the power to see what is presented herein and simply spread it out through the network. We can multiply James’ effect many fold by just passing it up the social network chain.

  14. nwherbalist says:

    Hi, names Ryan and I’m commenting from the USA. I’m an herbalist, farmer, permaculturist, hiker, wildcrafter, researcher, and things like this.

    I thoroughly enjoy working within my small community and building relationships with my neighbors and friends.

    Coming across Corbett’s work has been expansive. Although I always knew there were turds pulling the strings, I felt utterly disempowered by “the system.” Now I feel extremely empowered and am researching alternative currencies with the intention of starting one within my community. Am also working with others on the possibly of introducing an alternative news newspaper for free to those living within the county. Have been having incredible success reaching out to people this year and I must thank James for teaching me how to deliver information with integrity.

    Nice to be here with you all. If anyone ever has any questions about natural medicine, feel free to ask. Have experience with a variety of cases/instances.

    • macburns says:

      Hi Ryan, this is Angela. I recently was looking into hydrilla verticillata for a metal detox. Do you have any knowledge? I think it is interesting that is on the federal list to be eradicated due to its invasiveness. It is also considered to be a superfood. Hmmm. As for alternative currencies, are you aware of Ithaca hours and Berkshares?
      Nice to meet you digitally. :)

      • nwherbalist says:

        Angela, I have no particular hands on experience with hydrilla verticillata, but I did just read through a couple scholarly articles associated with the plants ability to absorb heavy metals and in-turn help with pollution. If you are trying to flush heavy metals out of your body, I would highly suggest drinking distilled water and seeking out a bionic foot bath. A neighbor of mine had aluminum poisoning and he used these 2 methods to flush the heavy metals out of his body. I was at his house when he was using a bionic footbath and you could see the aluminum in the bottom of the tub when he was done with the session.

        Yes, it has taken over some of the water ways in the state I am currently living in, essentially chocking off native species. Although the plant has medicinal and nutritional properties when consumed by humans, it may not be great for native ecosystems.
        I have looked into both! Thank you for sharing your comments and suggestions
        Since the time I’ve written my original introduction, I have met a few locals who have tried issuing alternative currencies in the community (I’ve only lived here for a couple of years). They had a failed experience because most people prefer barter and the talents of the community members are conducive to this form of exchange.
        Although it recently burnt down, we used to have a market (The Exchange) set up next to the local garbage dump that held items to be recycled/upcycled. All transactions were based on donation, trade, or grab and go. It was a thriving culture where people brought their junk to become someone else’s treasure (tools, cloths, you name it). Very few people relied on buying new items from the mainland. We’re all missing The Exchange terribly, and it is soon to be rebuilt.

    • grey.beard says:

      HI Ryan, have you come across Sepp and Veronika Holzer of Austria. They farmed in the Austrian Alps (Krameterhof)using Permaculture techniques. You will find them on youtube. Absolutely fascinating.

      • nwherbalist says:

        grey.beard, no I haven’t heard of those permaculturists. Thank you for the recommendation! I’ll be watching some videos tonight.

        Where I’m at locally, we have the Bullock’s Permaculture, one of Bill Mollison’s students and his family. I believe they also have a few videos online/youtube.

  15. Marlen says:

    Hello everyone, glad to have the comment section here.

    I consider James to be an example of what we all should do to the best of our ability: to become consistent and congruent informed individuals that in turn can also share our findings and proposals for solutions, as well as becoming pillars of support in the very necessary ‘awakening’ after centuries of force-fed media indoctrination slumber.

    I am thankful for everything that I’ve learned thus far from James and the various people/connections/quotes/show notes posted in his freely available material, which as it’s been said here, to do such thorough investigations is impossible for the vast majority, and this is why I consider that supporting the Corbett Report in a public manner will strengthen the website’s credibility as well as encourage many others to take the same debrainwashing process as many of us have done through the material here.

    I’m taking this information and placing my grain of sand through providing personal support for people – including myself- to get to understand more about this world system and our individual actions – or the lack thereof – by walking through the debunking process at a mind level as well as at a world-system level, emphasizing on self-responsibility at all times. Recognizing our own power to steer our way through becoming informed on how things really work, gives us the ability to create solutions based on principles that have been virtually non existent in our history.

    So may this continue to be a growing platform of informed individuals that in turn give back to our societies/cybercommunities solutions, proposals for change and becoming that which we would like to see changed in this world, to deconstruct the lie of hierarchical powers that shouldn’t be so that we can instead see where we have missed ourselves in the equation all along, and begin learning how to honor each other as living beings

    Thanks for all the great work! And I agree with Anna: more females on the alternative media. So, it will be great to give continuation to this idea here.

    Greetings from the Mountains of Southwestern Virginia.

    I am Mrs. Cog, from Two Ice Floes (www.twoicefloes.com) which is the website for my better half Cognitive Dissonance, a contributing editor over at ZeroHedge.com. Two Ice Floes is where we seek to examine the connections and dysfunctions between the control system/Matrix we live in and the psychology of our spiritual crisis which has brought us to this state of humanity’s collective insanity. Our website chronicles our adventures of withdrawing from the financial management industry and starting a more self sufficient lifestyle on a small mountain homestead.

    We appreciate and support the efforts of the James and the Corbett Report as there really isn’t anything more important than seeking the truth. Thank you James for your continued diligence.

  18. janescooper52 says:

    Hello all my fellow seekers and learners and un learners. I am a retired grandmother of nine from Charleston, South Carolina. I’m doing what I can to share information with my family but it’s challenging, except for my husband who is in the loop with me! One of our six sons is! I want the grandchildren to be schooled at home. We want to move upstate to our farm and start farming and hunting. We have just taken up food dehydration and we are excited about being more informed about the food we have been eating. My younger sister has stage four colon cancer, and has to have chemo! But at least, because of James, I was well aware of the cancer industry fraud. It’s difficult to convey truth about it, as her daughter is a new doctor, as is my other sister and brother. I’m grateful to have access to truth and share every natural cancer cure with her. Glad to know my new friends!

    • macburns says:

      Hi-I just finished a quick, light read about the Billy Best story. Do you remember the teenage boy who ran away from home in 1993 to escape chemo? He ended up using alternative treatments, one from Quebec, to strengthen his immune system. He is in his 30’s now with a son of his own. Maybe his story would be a good way to change your sister’s mind…

        Oops sorry about that post with the link James. It was an afterthought. The link that was deleted can also be found on the above website for Billy Best. Thanks

    • nwherbalist says:

      Welcome! Glad to hear that you’re following your truth. You looked in the show notes of Rockefeller Medicine and watched Cancer: The Forbidden Cures, right? Really good documentary. I notice that people have been forced to remove it from YouTube in very recent days.

    • dave_voce says:

      Hi, i’ve been thinking quite a bit about cancer after hearing about some research that said that cancer is not a repeating error of cells, but rather it’s a switching on of ancient ‘junk’ DNA that turns the cell into a tougher form that coped with a toxic environment when we floated around in a shallow sea in an early form of a multicellular organism. Since we have got more complex the specialist protected cells cannot cope with a toxic environment and so as a last ditch attempt to survive the junk DNA gets switched on and we have cancer. But the problem is not the cancer, it is the toxic environment, the cancer might be a survival mechanism. The more i think about this theory and the more i learn about the subject the more it seems to make sense.

  19. scottk says:

    Hi folks,
    My name is Scott and I too like most of the subscribers woke up about five years back. In my day to day life I write software, but given a choice and time follow geopolitics from a perspective of how do I teach my children to survive in this insane unfair world.

    James your work is phenomenal and thank you for your dedication.

    I would love to see more coverage on what people are doing to over come the image of “being patriotic is unpatriotic”. I realize all must stand up and speak against this misinformation.

    My main point is I feel until we gain momentum on what is a true patriot, the masses (the sheeple) will be our largest obstacle to changing the world because they will cause effect what the elite can not achieve themselves.

    Again, James, as well as everyone else, thank you!

    Hello All,

    My name is Walter. I live in Northern California. The Corbett Report and all the people whom contribute their journalistic skills are truly wonderful. And the open source journalism that is used is an even greater resource as it allows you to verify for yourself the information upon which is being reported/commented. Keep up the amazing work of informing the people of the REAL truths. Cheers

  24. macburns says:

    Hello-This is Angela. I am Canadian-born, living in New England and I am the mother of two grown children. Bearing the weight of all that I have learned over the past year, I recently said to my fully-vaccinated and semi-indoctrinated daughter that I wish I could have a do-over as a parent. She, however, reminded me that she turned out perfectly-and she is correct. :)
    I am so grateful to James for getting the truth out in such a concise, clear and credible way.
    I am very interested in health and wellness, alternative healing and food as medicine, and I am looking into the effect that electromagnetic “pollution” (cell phone frequencies, rf meters, wireless technology etc.) has on our health. This is generally off-topic for what James tends to cover but it would be great if maybe James could have more discussion about this kind of harm as well.
    My best wishes to all of you!

    Greetings from Houston, Texas.

    I am a law student at the University of Houston. Currently, I don’t have a website or any other activism platform. My hope is to start a blog in the near future.

    It is sometimes rough being surrounded by people deeply ingrained and invested in the system, but hopefully being a lawyer will allow me to help individuals in various different ways, including civil liberty violations.

    James you reignited my passion for geopolitics and trying to make this world a better place. Your calm and thorough presentation style was an oasis in the desert of the alternative media that I was exposed to at the time. Keep up the good work and I am excited to meet some of the fellow subscribers!

    I’m a long time subscriber, Corbett is my main source for informations regarding international issues. I always advise my friends and family to look at corbett’s channel.
    But what I prefere about Corbett is his philosophy and wisdom, he’s a good man, invested in the most noble cause.
    I am so happy to see other subscribers introduce themselves to eachother.
    Reading you, I feel we are all trying to create and embody the solutions to make this earth a better place, each is own way. You guys are all truly inspiring, this is a real cultural revolution we’re working on !

    May we blossom
    May we spread

    Hello everyone. My name is Bruce and I’m an ex-pat from the US now living in Merida, Mexico. Although retired, I’m 73,I still try to remain active in spreading the truth about the lies and miss-information we’ve all been subjected to over the years. It has been so refreshing to follow Jame’s work on the Corbett Report. His honesty, integrity and shear commitment is absolutely fresh, inspiring and engaging and a joy to read even when it may expose those things we all dislike. Am proud to be a part of this community and keep hoping that in some small way I can contribute at least bits of my experience in furtherance of this great awakening and noble endeavor. Sincere thanks to James and his family and all who contribute to his work!

    Hi All,

    I am originally from a then occupied Baltic country during the early part of WWII and then spent the war years in camps in Germany before emigrating to England and then Canada during the cold war years.

    After a degree in Earth Sciences, I travelled and worked extensively in South and Central America, occasionally during politically unsettling times, and a few other foreign countries for more than 20 years, in addition to Canada and the US, until my retirement.

    Any opinions I may have are likely to be influenced by my experiences during my war and post war years and by closely living and working with the people of other countries.

    • Filip says:

      Wow, a fellow Balt! Eesti, Latvija or Lietuva?
      I’m a South American gone native in one of the most beautiful cities in Europe, Tallinn.
      As South American I’ve felt in real life how the Globalists act, and how we don’t realise it because we are stuck in the phoney left/right (Imperialist/[pseudo]Anti-imperialist, Peronist/Antiperonist, Red/White, Liberal/Conservative…) political divide. I’m an anarchist at heart, although I am doubtful that it will ever be possible to have an enduring anarchic society anywhere.
      I “woke up” to the existence of the NWO a year ago thanks to my 911 doubts, finding James’ great 911 video, and the Snowden saga. I’ve listen to the podcasts from the first one (James, although you think it is embarrasing, it was actually very good!), and I am on 263 by now. Still a lot to go through, and a lot to try to implement in my real life.
      I’m looking forward to participating in this community.

    Hey Y’all,

    Charles here, born in Toronto, Canada and grew up in the States outside of Philadelphia.

    I protested the Vietnam war while in High school and joined the US Navy at 32 years old. I Peacefully protested at the FTAA Protests in Quebec, Canada in, was it 2000?, 2001?, I forget the year now.

    I live in Missoula, MT currently. I’m still looking for fulltime work; but, I think my working days are winding down.

    I love it here, the slow pace, the mountains, rivers and the wildlife.

    Though much on the web is depressing and infuriating, I still want to be informed as much as, and to the degree that I can be.

    Once I discovered James and heard him speak, I noticed how precise he was – and is- in articulating his thoughts, in conveying his knowledge, in discussing his musings. I also noticed the people he chose to interview and who he has collaborated with. I respect James.

    I am not, as busy a man as he; yet, he took the time, he had the character, to reply to my email. I had not expected this at all, I know how busy he is, but I appreciated it.

    There are very smart people around James and drawn to him; so, I don’t know how much I will actually have to comment on; unless, it is to ask a question or to maybe raise an unraised angle.

    Peace and good will to all life!

    Greetings from the corn fields and hog lots of the american Midwest. I’m Matthew and I’m an awakened wage slave and societal outcast. I’m skeptical about being a skeptic and after 40 years of life in the US, have nearly lost the ability to trust information that I haven’t researched myself or obtained from what I believe to be a trusted source. The Corbett report has become one of those few sources, although, I admit to reaching dead ends in researching some topics presented here. Ideologically, I’d say I’m somewhere between a scientific meritocrat and a rational/volountarist anarchist, with a deep seeded dislike for authority in any form. Glad to meet you all and looking forward to both engaging discussion and potential problem solving.

    Hello,

    I’m Bart, 37 years old, I work as a software developer and I live in Utrecht, the Netherlands.

    I had always thought of myself as a well-informed person. I was reading all the newspapers; watched the evening news and the talk-shows; participated in discussion panels at school; I had strong political (leftish) convictions. In my early twenties I studied journalism. I did some research into CIA drug-trafficking in this time, which, looking back, should have alarmed me that something was terribly wrong in this world if I had really investigated properly.

    About 4 years ago my girlfriend and I split up and I lived with a friend for some months. In this period I didn’t have a TV, which at first, I really missed. I did have an internet connection though, so I started watching TV on the internet. Then I discovered I could watch channels that weren’t on TV. I watched the Egypt ‘revolution’ mainly on Al Jazeera, which I considered to be alternative media at the time. Now I know how silly that is, but at least it opened the idea to me that there were media out there with a different story on the main events. I wanted to know more.

    When I moved to my new home I didn’t even bother to get a TV connection. It didn’t take too long before the spell was broken. I’m not sure how, but someday I stumbled into one of the 9/11 documentaries. This changed everything and I was sucked into the rabbit hole. From false flag terrorism, to the banking scam and fake politics and still falling down the rabbit hole.

    Many of you will recognize the process I went through. First the anger of realizing that you’ve bought into this giant lie your whole life. Then the frustration of not being able to convey this knowledge to your friends and relatives. Some will fiercely oppose your ‘negativity’ and ‘paranoia’, others will just say you’ve lost your mind. And I must admit I was caught up in the Alex Jones drum-beating for a little while, which is totally focused on keeping people in that negative and paranoid mindset.

    I guess it was the ‘9/11 – A Conspiracy Theory’ video that led me to the CorbettReport youtube channel about 2 years ago. I learned so much from his video’s but, most importantly, James helped me to realize that it is not a negative or paranoid thing that we are doing. We don’t have to be angry and screaming and lashing out at the world. Instead we seek to rid ourselves of the negative and fear-based thinking that we were imprinted with. We believe in human beings and that we can improve the situation we are in. Therefor we have to address certain very negative issues, but at the basis of all this is the love for and trust in our fellow men.

    After 2 two years, listening to the CorbettReport feels like ‘coming home’ from a place where hardly anyone understands the subjects I think about, to a place were these thoughts seem so obvious and self-explanatory.

    Thank you James, for consistently pushing your message in a positive and constructive manner. I dwell in all the information and eloquence that comes from your channel. It inspired me to return to my journalistic ambitions and start creating content myself. Once that happens, I will let you know. I hope we as a community will find a way to combine our efforts.

    With kind regards,
    Bart

      Cool Bart. I can very much resonate with what you’re describing. I haven’t had a TV probably the last 10 years, but before that I was severely addicted to it. I would turn it on the minute I walked through the door and would only turn it off when I went to sleep. When people hear that I don’t have a TV or when people ask me if I watched something last night, they get this very despondent look in their face as though I’m doing something unsocial and extreme lol. Like they’re thinking: “you can’t do that, it’s against the rules”.

      Cool to hear that you are inspired towards writing again!

      • Bart Houkes says:

        Anna, indeed people get uncomfortable when I say I don’t watch TV, but I think that’s because most people know very well that watching TV is not the most uplifting thing they do in their lives. They know they watch too much TV. It’s like talking to an addict about drug abuse. Somehow they envy you that you don’t need that in your life.

        However, they do not realize that their entire believe-system is created by that TV. They are strongly convinced that they are free and independent thinkers and are not aware that they are being manipulated all the time. So, while people might agree with you that TV isn’t the best influence in their lives, they will still defend all the lies that TV put in their minds.

      Hi Bart!

      I’ve gone through very similar things, and your post has touched a gentle note within me, and I’m sure within others.

      I have recently started a blog titled Persuasion not Coercion (not to shamelessly plug it here) and am looking for contributors as well as readers. Won’t you have a look?

      • Bart Houkes says:

        Gypster, thanks for your kind words. I have done some writing recently, but it is in Dutch. My English is pretty good, but even in Dutch I find it quite a challenge to express myself properly. I will get to it though.

  35. goodfella says:

    Hello fellow Corbett fans! I reside from AZ in the states and am looking forward to the discussions we can have on this site in the future. Thank you James for all you do and everyone else who supports this site.

  36. john says:

    Hi everybody and thanks to James for turning this already-wonderful site into something more interactive and a chance to build some community. I’m John, a novelist and playwright (and Web Guy when writing routinely fails to pay the bills). I’m a New Yorker living in the UK these days.

    On September 11, 2001, I was in NY, watching the towers smoke and then crumble from a vantage point along the 7 train line in Sunnyside, Queens. I can verify that the whole demolition vs “softening steel” debate began approximately 10 seconds after the first tower went down, right there on the subway platform. So I thought it was a very fishy bit of business right away and I was highly receptive to those researchers and analysts who did the early math and found things not adding up. It’s a nice feeling when you begin to think that maybe you’re not the crazy one.

    Anyway, since I’ve noticed a tendency in myself that I often only speak up when I’ve got some sort of pedantic criticism to make, and am harder on my allies than on my opponents, and have even once or twice questioned the wisdom of James Corbett — let me say something overtly positive: James, you do amazing work, it’s extremely valuable, and I appreciate it very, very much!

  37. Blackdog says:

    Hi all

    My name is Andrew but you guys can call me Blackdog. I’ve been a supporter of James work since seeing him on Global Research TV. I was and still am a great fan of the late Mike Ruppert especially with his work on the 9/11 exposure and later on his work with Peak Oil. His work opened up a whole new world for me and eventually lead me to Michel Chossudovsky at Global Research and then to James. Thanks James for providing a more balanced perspective on global politics and economics. Look forward with chatting with all of you and making a real difference.

    howdy all….seems im a little late. Patrick here from north london! great to finally have a comments section on the c-report. Great to finally be able to contact people who watch some intullectually stimulating information as oppose to the drab that i see most consume. If anyone is in London and would like to meet up / start a discussion group (i used to host one but moved house) then give us a shout! (p_miller13@hotmail.com) . In the meantime I will stay tuned to all the fab work here at the corbett report! wooo yeah!

    Hi everyone!

    Thanks to James and more than a handful of people I follow online, I have become “politically” aware once again after years of not voting (since I turned 18 to be exact) and now having a valid reason (I knew I always had, but all of this information just reinforces that feeling). I am a home care worker by day and researcher and activist in my spare time. I am in Bristol, UK.

  40. dogdoc says:

    Hi Guys,

    Like most of you, I’m a recovering mainstreamer with a passion to learn more, every day. I’m a dyed in the wool truther, not just about 911, but about the origins of the stuff we’ve taken as Gospel for so many years. thankfully there are a few voices out in the void that are starting to be heard. Can’t wait to hear more about the topics we’ll open up in the future.

    Just to kick things off, I’m interested in hearing what chances this community gives the High Rise Initiative to bring about a honest investigation into the destruction of WTC7.

    I’ll kick it off: I think it will be shot down on some funky legal grounds, probably made up by the Supreme Court. I do however totally support the effort and have contributed three times so far. This is the best chance to date to get a public hearing on any part of the 911 fiasco.

    • john says:

      The high-rise initiative is interesting isn’t it? My fear isn’t that it will fail, it’s that it will succeed — it’ll get on the ballot, the ballot will be passed, and then…well, what? They trust the NYC Department of Buildings to do an honest, thorough job of it free from political interference? What are the odds of that? What I can easily picture is that they do a rubber stamp job on the NIST report, agree it was caused by fire, and then the “new investigation” concept is deader than ever. Anti-truthers will just say “hey losers, even your own investigation says you’re wrong.” And no amount of “no, the investigation was flawed” will ever change their minds.

      I’ve donated to the cause, but lately each time they ask for more, I’ve asked what the plan is for ensuring an honest investigation with scientific integrity. They haven’t deigned to reply to the question so far. I’m afraid there is no plan. I fear the worst.

  41. BennyB says:

    Greetings, BennyB here.

    So briefly, obviously a big fan of James Corbett’s work and a strong supporter for the model of independent open source journalism he represents. It was via his Gladio Plan B series with Sibel Edmonds and his excellent Eye Opener Report series that I was introduced to Boiling Frogs, which I’m not only an advocate for; but I’m also a subscriber. (seriously, but wink, wink if you get the joke… ;) That said, also a fan of many of the excellent regular contributors who bring so much to the table here as well ( you all know who you are =} )

    Anyway, looking forward to sharing ideas here with some of you out there, doing some critical thinking, and trying to find ways to use the power of information to make some changes for the better where it’s possible.

    How y`all doing,
    Sending you salutations from the “redneck riviera” formerly represented by Dr. Ron Paul (we are already missing him big time). Port Lavaca is on the Matagorda Bay about 100 miles sw of Galveston.
    So glad to be a part of this group and look forward to seeing your comments and concerns on the topics that James entertains and enlightens us.
    Thanks James for sharing your thoughts and incredible research with us.

    Greetings, Nathan here.

    Currently writing from Red Deer Alberta. Have been enjoying James for well over a year now!

    James you have a wonderful control of the English language, and you articulate your points clear and precise. It truly is a joy listening to you.

    Keep exposing the utter Bullshit that is peddled to the masses on a daily basis. More and more people are becoming unplugged becuase of people like you.

    Keep up the amazing work!!

  44. Particle Man says:

    Greetings,

    I have always been inherently disinterested in “the news.” I have no desire to sift through the fluff and questionable veracity that mainstream media comprises. But when I was on a different search for truth, in which I enjoyed sifting, I was introduced to Myron C. Fagan’s “The Illuminati and the Council on Foreign Relations” and “Red Stars over Hollywood”; and years later, the 9/11 video “Loose Change.” These discussions were fascinating but insufficient to impel me to further research. Over the years, however, my interest in such topics grew.

    On the rare occasions of watching TV, I had been inexplicably drawn to a name in the listings that I knew nothing about, Glenn Beck. But it was a few years until I acquiesced to satisfy this curiosity. Although Beck’s show expanded my horizons, about a year later, I felt like I should stop listening to it, so I did. Perhaps on that last day of listening to Beck’s show, I searched for a few things and people he had mentioned from time to time, including Agenda 21 and Alex Jones. That day changed everything.

    My discovery of alternative media showed me that there indeed are news sources that address important issues honestly and extensively. I felt that Jones is right about most things, and so I searched for what he discussed, and this was how I found James Corbett. Impressed with Jones’ knowledge but not his sensationalism, exaggeration, and general gloom-and-doom, I was relieved by Corbett’s more intellectual and positive approach, even though I do not share all of his views.

    I greatly appreciate the alternative media for their efforts. And uncompromised though they may be, none negates the need to sift. But it is to counsel given in my religion that I owe any lasting interest in learning about history, countries, kingdoms, laws, the wars and perplexities of the nations, as well as warnings about conspiracies, or secret combinations. Otherwise, I probably would not retain sufficient interest to discover the unfortunate yet expected evils of this or any other era in history. But regardless of what has happened and will happen, I believe that all corrupt individuals and organizations, including banks, foundations, corporations, and governments, will continue to (appear to) rule the world only temporarily, that these monstrosities will one day fall–and more importantly will be replaced, but that’s another discussion.

    Ultimately, through everything I seek to learn, I hope to help myself, my family, my friends, and others make wiser choices, detect the deceptions promulgated by the powers that shouldn’t be, and exemplify the virtues that should and will prevail.

  45. Gypster says:

    Hello friends!

    I’m 38, have four cats a husband and a successful home business.

    Let me share what woke me up in not so chronological order.

    1. The Bhagavad Gita. Believe it or not it loosens the mind when taken non literally :)
    2. Patanjalis yoga sutras (more mind loosening)
    3. 9/11 Loose change
    4. Alex Jones
    5. James Corbett
    6. Tragedy and Hope community
    7. Voluntaryist.com and so many others.
    8. Having to directly pay the irs
    9. G Edward Griffin, even though I couldn’t make it through his book :)

    I used to be so angry at the world for all it’s lies and I suppose a part of me still is. But the important part I’ve learned is to let those angry thoughts go and focus on solutions. I believe the solution lies in Persuasion over Coercion. One must lead as an example and appear as an expert to convince others of this fact.

    James is a master of this.

    There are also two other channels through which people can be convinced. Through the heart and through the mind. I believe I have stumbled across something important enough to begin blogging about it to educate others about these methods so that we may teach ourselves and others to not use coercion in any aspect of their lives.

    I shall blog about these three methods but in the meantime, thank you so much James, for all your hard work!

    Hi James and all:

    Great opportunity to communicate on this forum. Introducing myself, I do have a website “Greencrow As the Crow Flies” I think the address is in my profile. I have been a news junkie and a keyboard activist ever since 9/11. My perspective is from someone who has lived through several geopolitical pendulum swings. This latest one is the most worrisome of all. I appreciate communicating with like-minded peers because, while I am “left of Lenin…my relatives are all right of Attila the Hun.

    Hiya all,

    I’m Gwen from Germany and I just wanted to say:

    James is the best! :)

    I just love the way he gathers information, processes it and then shares with us.

    Gives me a lot of hope!

    Woohoo! Finally: Adding something of my own to “the” Corbett Report!
    I am very grateful & humbled to be able to connect to all of you who are reading this.

    As much as I am a fan of James’ work, the most profound effect of all his highly appreciated efforts will bear fruit within the actions that his current listeners and future audience will take once they are inspired by this open, intelligent and solution-oriented spirit.

    A well informed, self-empowered portion of humanity that is actually living in presence (aka being in the [k]now) & sharing their wisdom for free – that’s all we need to really improve the situation for all life on this planet.

    Earth is a beautiful sacred place, all lifeforms on this plane are longing for a peaceful life in freedom, full of recognigition & appreciation of this simple truth. Offering the experience of peace is what I strive for on a daily basis on all levels of my being and I guarantee you it’s not going to be without consequences! ♥

    • Presence of Peace (Mirko from Berlin, Germany) says:

      By the way, I have been called Jan Mirko (a mixed name in between european cultures signifying “victorious messenger of peace”); ever since I have been able to reflect on my existence in this world I have felt a strong determination towards caring for peace & balance on this planet.

      At the moment, I work for a member of the Berlin parliament (Abgeordnetenhaus) who represents the german pirate party. I’m a regular background demonstrant, not affiliated to particular parties or organisations.

      Currently, there are several individuals whose sole purpose in life is to ensure a safe unraveling of human potentials and secure the current life on earth. I welcome you to join these universal agents of peace & truth who are united within their dedication to inner peace, manifested through lifes of integrity, authenticity & sovereignty.

      Thanks for being around and caring for this world, my Gratitude to You!

    Hi James and Team

    I am a fifty something semi retired UK expatriate now living in New Zealand – I spent 35 years as a corporate IT / Security mercenary – I now divide my time trading and mentoring in the precious metals arena and educating myself in wider geopolitical, economic and world issues.

    I am here because I value and want to support the work that James does. Although I have had a personal email and internet account since the early 1990’s, I do not use twitter, facebook or even linkedin ( my audit training I guess ).

    I also now tend not to post in online forums – my personality seems not to be suited to dealing politely with some of the abrasive types that can appear in such arenas and has in the past resulted in lots of valuable personal time being wasted in meaningless online ‘exchanges’.

    That said I am approachable and personable and will contribute if I think it will add.

    I wish you all the best in this endeavour.

    Currently, I put all my comments on YouTube. Maybe I could start commenting more here in Corbettland. I just read all the above introductory comments, and I send good wishes to you all. My YouTube channel is not2tees, which simply refers to the spelling of my first name, Scot. If you visit my channel you’ll see that I am not really a thinker. But, somehow I appreciate people like James Corbett who hold these to me amazingly clear and insightful opinions. I believe that I was raised in a family where it was considered not polite to have opinions about anything much, other than a football team, maybe. Grandfather and father both had careers in the military. I am a non-conformist by instinct more than reason, but I imagine that I’m learning how to think for myself in this present life. I’m more of a mystic, which means an outsider in any culture, certainly in our “culture” – a culture is suppose to be a nourishing environment, therefore the quotes. John Taylor Gatto is where I really started to get wise about the elites’ agendas. God oh holy God school is so deadly. I’ve been on meds, so that and my advancing age has taken off most of my edge, but like Faust I hope that in the end the angels will be allowed to save me as well because what was it? Oh yeah, Faust (at least with Goethe’s version) never stopped trying.
