Some are more familiar with the way the British occupiers pronounced it "Bombay". It's got a huge Muslim presence, so does India in general. Under the British "protectorate" because it's not polite to call them Imperialists anymore. Even though the Queen does still hold the title of Empress. That's beside the point. Under the protectorate Britain called the following "India"; Iran, Pakistan, Burma, Thailand, Cambodia, Afghanistan, Sri Lanka which used to be Ceylon, there's been a lot of name changes, Thailand was Siam until I was 11 years old, you know, and knowing the younger readers think I'm ancient... but no, these changes were pretty much around my lifetime. But there's a Church in Mumbai. No big deal, right? Before the English took possession of the entire region after the Napoleonic wars, we are taught in Merka are used to calling it the War of 1812, which "our" participation was mainly getting stomped by the British a few times and calling it a draw, and Andrew Jackson simply taking Tennessee, Alabama, Mississippi, Missouri, the Mega-Rez called Indiana, Minnesota, Iowa, Kansas, in case you're not paying attention you notice that there's a lot of native names, and Indiana was ceded to
Women
Well, it DOES have the word “correct” in it
Just a synonym for "right". One of the candidates for a high office said putting Ms Harriet Tubman on the $20 bill was "pure political correctness" Woo hoo! Hallelujah! It's finally been decided that politics should be done Right! and doing right is good politics! As for Jackson, apart from being a slaveholder, he was a real estate tycoon who sold land before the residents of the land were even informed they were being evicted, because of their skin color. A racist thief in other words. And a murderer, let's not forget that part. He couldn't do the evictions without a credible threat of killing people if they didn't give it up. And he had a whole shitload of people killed. American people, in case that makes a lot more difference to Some People than it does to me. It would be really kewl to have a picture of the old racist bastard burning in Hell, but I suspect that establishment doesn't allow cameras.
US has Duty to protect against Domestic White Sex Slavers
Beat the drums, play the pipes, fire up the drones, we have a new target. This one I get to choose. Barbara Nimri Aziz. published on Global Research has an article (see link) that starts with the propaganda about the Incubator Babies, one of the lies told in the buildup to GulfWarz One, Operation Deceptive Storm and goes to Syrian and Iraqi ISIS as being purveyors of sex slaves. And of course only Muslim men ever practice such a thing, right? No such thing could ever happen here in AmeriKKKa, right? Not by people, surely, with names like Al or Harry or other western good ol' boy WASP nominally Christians, right? So let's have drone strikes against New Braunfels Texas or Reno Nevada or any other sovereign entity that shelters these dirty dogs. Come on, lads, let's go rescue the ladies in the U.S. of A.... Here in the Homeland. Let's wipe out the cities and suburbs harboring the "christian" sex slave owners. And not just those Funny quasi-christian cults like LDS or SDA, living in compounds out in the bundoks, where there aren't any impartial witnesses, just the BATF and FBI agents word against conveniently dead from Suicide By
Tom Jefferson, Founding Father and Serial Rapist
Hu-wi. That's Cherokee for "hu-wi". The Silly Season is on us. Every election year we get bombarded ("we" defined as anybody trying to get information to process and mold our separate opinions) by something called The Expressed Original Intent of The Founding Fathers, with both the Founding Fathers and any coherent shared-by-all-or-even-most Americans beliefs at the time of the revolution being as elusive as the majick unicorn who bears the faerie who guards the Holy Grail. And almost as easy to catch. One opinion artist put the number of F.F. persons as 3 (THREE) being Ben Franklin, G. Washington and T. Jefferson. Out of the 4 million humans counted in the first U.S. Census. Three. Two of whom were slaveowners. Franklin didn't have slaves, Washington didn't write in his diary every or any instance of screwing his slaves but Jefferson did, at least on one particular victim. The "serial" part is the long term multiple times the self-made bastard abused one victim in particular, Sally Hemings, aged 14 at the time of the first assault. He would have gotten a life sentence for it today. This muddies the pool of Founding Fathers and the interpretation of just any of the
It’s not Mothers Day- It’s International Women’s Day!
This headline from Montreal caught our attention today… 'Women Unite Against Austerity Measures' Well.... Why Not? Nobody should advocate prosperity for the banks and austerity for those who actually do the work instead of merely owning capital (stored up work done by other people). Women should and CAN lead the way against austerity, repression, and constant war making.
