I guess it would be for the anti-Taliban extremists who huddle in their extended fortress behind a very expensive shield. They get to take advantage of not having to fight the Taliban themselves, instead using the U.S. and NATO (same difference) Corporate thugs to do their killing for them. Apparently biding their time until the NATO installed Corporate Puppet Regime fails, Reminds me of vultures and jackals, eating the leftovers from the kill of more aggressive predators. And yes, I just DID call the U.S. Army "predators". You no likey, me no givey damn you no likey. Simple as that. The Karzhai Puppet Regime slaves and lackeys will enjoy their scraps of Human meat, even, you know, when the more aggressive predators kill a few of the carrion fowl and jackals, the jackals and vultures will feast on the flesh of their on pack just as heartily as they do on the flesh of "The Other Side". But then, they were always like that, and did the same kind of subservient boot-licking for the Soviets and the British during past failed conquests. And one needn't worry about their survival after America limps off the fields defeated. They know how to exist in a cockroach style colony, or a rat pack. They made their pathetic "living" eating the garbage and sewage of the Taliban when the Taliban were their masters. Boot polish tastes the same no matter which set of masters wears the boots.

Remember the Maine, the Alamo, Pearl Harbor or the day they found WMDs in Iraq?
I remember the day they pretended to have found WMDs. On CNN and FOX there were were reports that an oil refinery outside Baghdad had been liberated by U.S. Marines with WMDs inside. So they brought cameras in... embedded and therefore non-truthful reporters. A dank, dirty place. Oil refineries are like that. A huge stack of bent, rusted and otherwise unsafe 55 gallon drums. They would have been stacked that way to make the trip to the recycling plant. Nobody in his right mind would use one to store even the NORMAL toxic petrochemicals. Then about 30 barrels, unstained by the pollution, the smoke or smog or haze of burnt or vaporized oils, the soot that was caked onto every OTHER surface. Powder Blue paint on them, looked just like they had come directly from wherever they were manufactured. Not like, say, they were a decade old, hidden and moved since 1991. You might ask, "Jonah, how the Hell would you be able to tell that?" to which Jonah might well reply, "Because I worked in steel mills, solvent and glue plants, and oil refineries". They were stacked, actually. Not on pallets and lifted up by crane or forklift. No, STACKED. Fairly neatly. Something you're not going to get any manual laborers to do if they've got anything in them. A full 55 gallon drum weighs almost a quarter of a ton. And then the camera lights glanced rapidly over some black and white letters written on the sides of the drums, not a complete view but you could see that they were in English and tagged for export. Produ of the Unite Oh my.Anything packaged for export from Iraq would have a lot of Arabic writing, maybe some Pharsi, and maybe some English but this was ALL english. Neither the U.S. nor Britain had shipped anything to Iraq in a decade.Why I remember this so clearly, because they yanked any further mention of it when a very small handful of internet users spotted it. And now, long after Bush and Blair and Brown finally said "Yeah, we faked the WMD story, so what?" an eerily similar cabal is forming to make war on Iran on reports of WMDs. And there are a lot of people willing to just throw out the ol' Hitler Salute and give the lying thieving murderous sons of whores license to lie to them some more. Maybe enough to justify the planned attack just long enough to start committing such attacks. For those whose religious reason for doing it would be to bring on the end of the world, you're really fucking stupid and you're definitely not prepared for Judgment Day.
War is over, so they say…
Said, in different words, that the illegal conquest Iraqi Oilfields and National Prison-camp Ghetto Rebuilding has been secured and that the Iraqi Puppet Army and Police are sufficiently trained in Western Style Police Brutality. What a victory for Righteousness and Decency! Strange that they never found all those WMDs, though, ain't it? Meanwhile neighboring Syria and Iran are targeted and Guess Which Really Stupid Lie They're Telling Us to justify that? Go on, guess... Ok I'll tell you. WMDs. Apparently a nation like the U.S. which employs torture and assassinations that have historically killed about twenty times as many non-combatants as they do "terrorists" and many of whose political leaders believe they should establish a fundamentalist religious dictatorship worldwide, is the only nation morally fit to have WMDs. Add in that the U.S., which has more of every class of weapon than the entire rest of the world combined, is also the only nation to have used all three classes of WMD, Biological, Nuclear and Chemical. And routinely uses gas and is experimenting with mass Pain weapons against "their own" citizens. Sort of a high-tech version of what they accuse Gadafi and Hussein of doing. And make no mistake, the American Cop or Soldier using torture or killing anybody anywhere in the world, gets just as big a sadistic thrill from his use of violence as any of Saddam or Moammar's worst Gestapo-esque Goon Squad member. They get a bigger thrill when the victim is a Child, elderly or disabled. Yeah. Even the CSPD. I bet they show the Explorers videos of their torture sessions to weed out those who aren't as depraved as Real Cops. There's also the matter of Afghanistan.... And leave us not forget Pakistan. Which General Betray-us has in his sights now that he's the chief of the Central Global Intelligence Agency. The military and Intelligence services have united, wholeheartedly, behind the Conquest of The World for the profit of the 1%. Afghanistan, which they cheerfully predicted would be a cakewalk, like Iraq, which neither of them actually WAS a "cakewalk"... because of their relative poverty, really small populations and lack of actual Weapons of Any Destruction... Afghanistan was ranked the poorest country on earth, had 5 aircraft in the entire country which were destroyed within the first several minutes of the intensive bombing. The second and subsequent waves of bombing were, as one analyst boasted, "stirring up the rubble from the first". I'm not going to apologize for saying this, if any of the Right Wing Trolls who read this haven't figured that out, too damn bad, but Aerial Bombardment is Babykilling and always has been. What the U.S.A.F. has done in Afghanistan and Iraq and Libya is morally equivalent to what the Italian, Spanish and Luftwaffe "volunteers" did in Guernica and Ethiopia. Now some of the Educated Morons in the State Department and Military are making plans Open Threats to do the same to Pakistan and Iran. Let's do some comparison figures to show the accuracy of my next statement shall we? Iraq (by CIA estimates) 30
They hanged Pinocchio and let Gepetto walk… 12/30/2006
As is so often true in death penalty cases. From 1979 til 1991 he was propped up by mostly the Reagan Regime as a counter to the Iranian revolution. Who are also the chief "witnesses" against him in the matter of killing a few thousand Iraqi citizens. With their active involvement. Their active PAID involvement, because they a) don't work cheap and b) don't actually work. "They" being a cast of villains like Reagan, Bush the Elder, Ollie North, the Miami Cuban Cartel, Richard Secord, Donald Rumsfeld, Admiral Poindexter, traitors and murderers all. Selling stolen arms for stolen money and getting Americans killed in the process, like the Marines in Beirut. (Lt Col North, three words, Ollie... Semper... Fi... Bitch) They got several times as many people killed by their Other Puppets, like the Salvadoran death squads, the Contras, the Medellin Cartel, to bring more people into Capitalist Slavery in the name of "Freedom". And they're still sending their brainless minions to kill for their own profit. Any of y'all soldiers assigned to read our blog, dudes, get smart and desert. Split, boogie, depart, sortez... Get Out Of The Slaughter Machine. Your Military is owned by the same Rich Bitches who owned Saddam's Army and financed al Qa'eda. They don't give a rat's ass about your lives any more than they did the 2800 they had killed on 9/11 or the 300 Marines they had murdered in Beirut or the uncounted thousands of Nicaraguan priests, nuns, nurses, doctors, teachers, orphan children and other civilians they "liberated" with American-bought bullets to the heads. They won't give any more of a damn about your lives than the lives of the Iraqi and Afghan civilians they had you murder. If it comes down to a choice of them facing the hangman themselves or scapegoating you the way they did their Other Puppets, you'll be stretching the rope. It's just the way the coward bitches do business. Ollie North has been rewarded for his selling out "his fellow" Marines by being paid several million dollars a year to LIE for his whoremasters, on a Fox News show. Gunny Bob Newman has a similar Whore deal for much less money on Hate Talk Radio. If either of them were to actually, for the first time in their sorry worthless misspent lives, MAN THE HELL UP AND TELL THE GOD-DAMN TRUTH, they would be sold out the way their Masters sold out Manny Noriega, Saddam Hussein, Osama, the top level financiers of the Medellin Cartel... Betraying your countrymen and your oaths is Okey Dokey with them, but betraying the Whoremasters isn't permitted.
War costs many times what Pentagon reported, Surprise.
We've been told, you know, that the total spending on the Wars Of Conquest in the Bananastans was "only" a Trillion dollars. For those who don't visualize numbers very well, that's a million times a million. Using the largest standard bill in U.S. Currency, the $100, it would take a suitcase to hold a million dollars, and it would weigh just over 22 pounds, ten kilograms. (Each bill weighs a gram, 10,000 bills... hey, people in the drug trade know that, it's easier to weigh a million dollars than count it. That shit from Scarface where they had a counting machine, pure fiction. Dope dealers use their scales for more than just weighing out the product.) Other estimates are 3.7 trillion. That's substantially more. Then there's more realistic estimates that range from 5 Trillion up to 8 Tera-bux. That would be from estimating the costs + "over-runs" like syphoning off a few million suitcases full of Benjamins, of construction projects given with no-bid contracts to companies like Halliburton, which has a lot of connections to the Bush Family and the former President of Vice, Richard "dickless" Cheney. But they wouldn't rip us off, no, not possible. I could barely type that snark-asm without becoming violently ill. "The debt crisis has been a game changer in terms of defense spending," said Laura Peterson, a national security analyst at Taxpayers for Common Sense, a nonpartisan budget watchdog. "It used to be that asking how much the wars cost was unpatriotic. The attitude going into the war is you spend whatever you cost. Now maybe asking is more patriotic." How was that funded without raising taxes? Bonds. Bonds which pay 10% annually. Which means the interest is going to exactly match the principal this coming quarter. So that makes the cost to the taxpayers exactly twice what it would have cost with a pay-as-you-go system. Because the Rich Bitches like CheneyBush aren't going to let the American People get out of our obligation to line their pockets. And they're not going to tax their Rich Bitch Buddies either, they've already made that point clear. Instead they're going to blame the poorest people, those of us who control less than 1% of the total wealth, for their own little Oopsie moment, and tax us accordingly. Cut Momma's Social Security. Slash pay and benefits so we'll have less raw income with which to pay more money than all of us collectively won't see in several lifetimes of Minimum Slavery. Those of us "Lucky Duckies" who don't make enough money to pay income tax. It seems that every time Class Warfare rears its ugly head, the guns are pointed at the Working class and away from the Parasite Class. It's worth noting that within a year the first use of a machine gun (different from a Gatling gun) by the United States Army was against U.S. civilians at the Ludlow Massacre, and IWW organizer Joe Hill was blown away at Salt Lake City by a firing squad.
You know, when people get shot at, they tend to shoot back…
Out of all the emotions one could feel or as a herd, millions of someones could feel, "shock" at the return fire offered unto a Chinook helicopter would be about the least appropriate. Or that the return fire being somehow unprovoked, since the flying can of SEALS were being sent in as reinforcements for an assassination mission. Certainly the description of it being an attack on the SEALS rather than the defense of "the other way round" was more than slightly uncalled for. What, are we to describe it as a War or more like a one-sided organized slaughter? How much Shock and Awe, Might Makes Right, Oderint dum Metuant propaganda are we supposed to take? We get to slaughter They with high tech superior firepower by the dozens and scores but if They fight back They are Terrorists? That we need do naught but flex our Mighty Muscles and they should bow down before us, bowing and cringing and apologizing for daring to believe they are our equals or we, theirs? In the Graveyard of Empires, being held as their equals would be an high historic honor.
Pentagon says bombing civilians necessary, will continue.
Of Course. Then we'll have Nut-Jobs like Charlie from the dead soldier picture comments saying that "No Marine he ever knew ever killed a baby", well, Charlie, Your Comrades Sure The Hell Do, Daily, and the Pentagon says it's "necessary" because mommy and daddy didn't surrender, didn't bow down and lick the jackboots of the NATO Imperial Stormtroopers like you. Some "freedom" y'all are fighting for, Free to submit to Corporate American rule or die, and your kids with you.
Murderer gets 4 1/2 years for killing handcuffed prisoner.
In a plea bargain. Actually the Court Martial handed him 12 years. I know people who got more time for passing a no-funds check. The Army M.P. which in my book stands for Murdering Pus... errr punk...said he "knew it was wrong" then blamed the victim. Yep. He had heard about a chaplain, who unlike a Prisoner IS a combatant... was killed by an IED. Which itself might have been more Army Bullshit, the Air Force dumped hundred ton after hundred ton of explosive devices all over Afghanistan. It could as easily have been a case of long-delayed "friendly fire" and we'd never know from the Army accounts. Yeah, they DO lie through their teeth. Anyway, Pig Boy, who like every other Prison Guard in the world took the job because it affords him access to helpless prisoners to abuse and get sexually aroused so he and his fellow Pigs could stand around spanking each others tiny little monkeys... Said that the victim made him do it. By being vaguely of the same ethnicity as whoever was reported to have placed the alleged IED. So the Court Martial, like ALL Judges, did what Pigs normally do, they gave their Fellow Pig the best deal they could hand him under the circumstances. This Farce Martial, the other side of Kangaroo Kourt lynch law, Pigs literally get away with Murder, took place on Ft Carson. I'm not naming the Pig because I personally believe he sold his soul to get his power-trip on, just like every other PIG. But, don't y'all worry none, all y'all Back the Badge Morons, he's in Federal custody so he and his Mom will have conjugal visits soon.
The jackasses who want to officially declare war on Pakistan
I would think that they're just kidding, but apparently they believe it's "winnable". These would be the same ones who believed that VietNam, Iraq, and Afghanistan would have been "cakewalks" if it hadn't been for those Liberal sentiments of fair play or at least an actual respect for basic human laws. Maybe they could do us all a massive favor and take their ill-gotten gold out of their banks or other stash places, buy a plane With Their Own God-Damn Money Instead Of Ours, for a change and parachute out over Teheran with dynamite vests? Maybe we could bribe the pilots to drop them off on Diego Garcia, which is de-facto a U.S. Navy target range. Why Teheran, exactly, even though it's not actually in Pakistan? Simple. It's right in the middle of their demented plans and really, there's a large portion of the Muslim people they despise so badly in every surrounding country, there's 80 million more Muslims in India than in Iran, just for instance. If the loudmouth Socially Retarded Animated Sphincters want to embark on another DOOMED Crusade, at least they could be removed from any further possibility of polluting the gene pool. And quickly. With odds like that, and two of the countries, India and Pakistan, armed with Nuclear Weapons, the odds wouldn't be any better if the full might of the United States Military were backing them, might as well let the Really Stupid Loudmouths do what they want... oh... that's right... they're in the league of and including Rush Limbaugh, Bill O'Reilly, Sarah Palin, George Bush, The Entire Bush and Cheney families in fact, CHICKENHAWKS who will send Other People to do their fighting in the wars they provoke. I just DON'T believe that even a measurable percentage of the Dumb-shit Chicken Hawks who want to expand "their" War like that would ever be in battle. Until the U.S. PEOPLE they exploit get sick of it and drag them from their castles and summarily execute them on their front lawns. Hang them from their own trees in their own immaculately maintained (by Other People's Labor, as usual) gardens by their own intestines while they're still alive.
Oh Come THE HELL ON! Get Your Damn Story Straight, SEALs!
First they said that Usama had "died like a coward" throwing a woman at the SEALs as a "human shield" and The Denver Post and the GagZette and every other Blood-thirsty "news" Propaganda agency in the country bought it, ate it up like a scoop of ice cream. NOW, typical of Cop behavior when they blow away an unarmed suspect, the PIGS are saying they thought he was going for a weapon. Which is it? Did he have both hands full of Female Human Shield or was he going for a gun You Lying Sons Of Bitches? This isn't your average midnight Terror Police Raid, this one has hanging on it all the idiotic War Drum Beating about taking over Pakistan in addition to the two unwinnable wars you already have going. Iraq still isn't ruled by the Iraqi people, they still have the Puppet Nouri al Maliki using U.S. Soldiers to keep the Iraqi people from storming his castle. The Warmongering Profit-hungry GreedPigs are still raking in the do-re-mi over that and other actions they can sell the Weapons of Conquest to "Mission Accomplish". How much fatter must we allow the Daddy Warbuck Hogs to get? The Navy and anybody else in the loop have been changing their stories more often than changing partners at a square dance. A regular Snake Orgy of tangled lies.
You know how “we’ve got the Taliban on the run”?
Wednesday they were shelling Kabul. That's... the Capital City, man. So, really, they're running, huh? How fast and in which direction? Are they like, running to try to catch up to "us"? I mean, to hear the Pentagoons and their trained parrots in the State Department tell it, they're hiding out in caves along the Pakistan border, right? Backs against the wall, fearing the Coward-ass Chair Force with their Drones, right? In a related note, they "got the No. 2 al-Qa'eda in Afghanistan" earlier in the week... what? How many "#2" senior officers are there? A quick nasty note for all those who say that they're fighting for our freedom... Is the reason for us being under a Fascist dictatorship right now because y'all LOST in VietNam?
U.S. “video game” pushbutton murdering drone comes home to roost.
The Murdering-ass coward scum who remote-control kill human beings from the air-conditioned safety of a command center in Nebraska, and gloat about how their "High Tech" weaponry makes them ever so superior to the Third World impoverished nations of PEOPLE against whom the United States Corporate Government has chosen to make For Profit Wars. Killed two of their own in Helmand Province last week. And they call the people who stand against the Arrogant Might of the Empire "cowardly terrorists" because they don't have the money to buy sophisticated weapons which kill from halfway around the globe. Well, YOU MURDERING SCUM KILLED A COUPLE OF YOUR OWN COMRADES! HOW DOES THAT FEEL, BYOTCHES? Yeah, taste of Real War, instead of what the Air Force lying recruiters told you, to get you off the couch in Yo Mommas' basements where you played endless video games, killing imaginary enemies with absolutely no risk to your own worthless cowardly skins. How does it FEEL, Byotches? You justified killing BABIES in similar unmanned Drone attacks, as long as they were the children you're giving the Freedom to live on their knees worshipping your mighty Corporate Empire. What kind of racist bullshit did your Master (Sergeants) tell you to convince you that the Afghan and Pakistani citizens were UnterMenschen who don't deserve the very title of Human? You sorry bastards gave up your own right to be called human, sold your soul for a chance to murder without any fear of retaliation. Not that it would matter to YOU but the two you killed this time, sergeant Jeremy Smith, 26, and seaman Benjamin Rast, 23 actually had names. So, in a bizarre twist of fate, did the literally COUNTLESS Other Human Beings, including children, whose lives you snuffed out with your Video Game. You had no conscientious objections over those murders, will you feign conscience now that the Jackboot is on the other face? This also calls into question, AGAIN, the reports the Pentagoons lightly dismissed as "propaganda, because those whiny SandNigger TowelHead MuzzleMonkey Non-Humans are always complaining about us murdering their kids", reports of Blackwater and CIA murderers killing civilians, Death Squad Green Berets who hunted unarmed Afghans and Pakistani farmers just for the fun of it, and knowing full well that their equally cowardly and murderous leaders promised them they would never be prosecuted no matter what crimes they commit. And the sheer number of PEOPLE the Air Force Murderers killed with Drone and other airborn attacks. According to the lying pukes in the War Department, oh, was I supposed to say "Defense" like the liars in the Corporate Press call them? Too bad. Eat it and smile. The War Department liars say that everybody who is killed by their non-human Drones who sit in the air-conditioned safety of an AFB in Nebraska directing other Non-Human drones, was a "terrorist". Without knowing exactly how many they killed or who the people killed used to be. Mighty convenient that these "christian" crusaders on their Noble and Holy Mission to force participation in Capitalism have such
The Memorial Park Grenade and Drugs
The CS Fuzz Dept isn't squeaking very loudly about the grenade they found at Prospect Lake a couple of days ago. There's ways to make a booby trap from a hand grenade, take one and set it down, prop a rock onto it and set the rock on a small stick, so the rock will fall off if the stick is disturbed, lots of ways to make the stick fall out. Test the rig to make sure. assemble it and extract the safety pin then leave, and never go back. That doesn't seem to be the case with the Lake Grenade. But it's Apparently a U.S. Army hand grenade of which there are several types, standard enough in triggering style, weight and size of the device, many made by an Israeli based firm called LGB Ltd. The cops would have a database on who supplies them. NOW... Drugs. The numbers are numbers of deaths attributed to various causes., Tobacco 435,000, Diet/Lifestyle 365,000, Alcohol 75,000, Accidental exposure to toxins 55,000 ALL Illicit drugs, direct and indirect 17,000 Aspirin, Tylenol, Midol, Motrin 7000 Cannabis 0 Some results omitted, like prescription drugs. Homicide, Suicide and Gun Related deaths naturally overlap. But there's Innkeeper laws that hold bartenders responsible if they allow an intoxicated patron to drive away. There's homicide laws that hold the supplier of the drugs responsible if the product causes the death of a user. Charge would be Murder actually. Somebody building a home-made grenade or gun would be charged with various wordings of Making an Infernal Device. Manufacturers of small arms, hand grenades, rifles, pistols-Not liable. Tobacco manufacturers-not liable Fat Food Restaurants who encourage patrons to eat more calories in one meal than they need in a week, and discourage walk-up or Bicycle up Business (try riding a bicycle in the Drive Thru lane at McToxins, they'll call the pigs on you, and the Pigs will gladly serve their Corporate Masters) Not Liable. Prescription drug overdoses and accidental mis-dosing and toxicity, Bayer, Baxter, Abbott, Lilly, ... not liable. The manufacturer of the Prospect Lake Grenade... not liable. The corporations who put out the small arms also put out propaganda designed to provoke, incite and prolong wars, mass murder actually, yet they're not liable. Their Propaganda Protectors at (worst offender, there are others) Fox HateSpeech Networks make sure they get to sell their Death Products AND create the market for them, uninterrupted by any silly little old laws like Thou Shalt Not Kill. United States religious leaders can incite their followers to wars with impunity, tell their followers that the sixth commandment actually doesn't include wars or death penalty, Because They Say So and if you question their holy word you're an antichrist and a blasphemer. They tell their followers that if somebody dies while killing for them, in their Holy Crusade, that person goes immediately to Heaven to enjoy the blessings and adoration of God and all His host. Somebody saying a mirror image of that same statement AGAINST the "crusaders" is judged as a terrorist and can be (according
Royal Wedding rescue mission to provide Bread and Circus distraction…
As the Empire burns... "Rescue Mission" was the excuse for the ultimately FAILED invasion of Grenada, to draw attention away from the Iran/Contra cartel FAILURE getting skunked in Lebanon. And to divert attention from the British Naval bombardment of Argentina under pretext of defending an Imperial Possession and the fact that the U.S. Military, in direct renegation of the Constitutionally ratified treaty with the Organization of American States, was actively assisting the British Empire with their unlawful attacks against the people and nation of Argentina. Just a small part of that Wonderful Reagan/Maggot Thatcher Legacy that the right wing TeaTards are celebrating. Stupid Bastards. The Cuban medical school on Grenada is still in operation, Cuba is still providing far more medical aid in the Caribbean nations than the United States, Grenada in the first actual election (not the Rigged One the U.S. Military imposed on them after the "liberation") voted for the same Socialist government the U.S. had deposed. The British Empire has declined even further since then, and will again be challenged on las Islas Malvinas "falklands" (named after a Scots sellout who sold Scotland to the English) The next time, the Mighty Rule Britannia won't be ruling the waves. They got sucked into or perhaps manipulated the U.S. attack on their Former Raj in Pakistan and Afghanistan and Iraq. They no longer have the Imperial Navy to spare on another colonialist defense Belligerent Assault. On the other hand, they do get to (pay for) another Wedding Extravaganza involving their overprivileged Dangerously Inbred Royal Family. While their American allies, at massive taxpayer expense, lose the rest of the Former Empire. Including Egypt. Ireland? Gone from their grasp. Iraq? on the way out of the Empire. Pakistan, Afghanistan, Hong "Gone" Kong? Kenya, Zimbabwe? If they weren't taking us down along with their empire it would be a pleasant jest... Welcome, New Princess Kate! One of your long-deceased outlaw in-laws, your namesake, Katherine "The Great" died when her horse fell on her... in bed. --just one of a long line of miscreants in your new family. Jack "the Ripper" for instance, Vlad "The Impaler" Ivan "the Terrible" William "The Bastard" what wonderful surnames they bring! There's not one class of crime in the world that cannot be assigned to that family name. Fratricide, parricide, matricide, infanticide, they'll probably have to invent yet another way to say "murder" to fit it all in. You should run like Hell away from that diseased family, they put the Funk in Dysfunctional. Your new Father in law is accused of killing your new husbands Mum, but of course you know that... But you get to provide the same spectacle she did and for about the same reason. Just another Royal Distraction, bread and circuses as the Empire burns.
So the State Department is once more Dictating to Egypt
Hosni Mubarak must stay - US envoy Frank Wisner: 'This is an ideal moment for Mubarak to show the way forward' Egypt's President Hosni Mubarak "must stay in office" during a power transition, a US special envoy says. Frank Wisner was speaking as protesters kept up their demands for Mr Mubarak to step down immediately. In other words, for Democracy to succeed in Egypt the people of Egypt have to accede to the will of the foremost enemy of democracy in the modern world. "Do as we tell you, so you can enjoy all the freedom we GIVE you... Just hold out your neck for the collar..." Because it's in the U.S. Imperial errr "National" interest of the people of Iran that there be a U.S. controlled errr "backed" Satrapy err Democratic Regime errr... strong centralized government in WashingtonEgypt, but run from Washingto Cairo for when we liberate Iran through the use of nuclear devastation.
Drone targeting data… is it as flawed as THIS?
It's not just in the middle east, it's what "we" do here too... The brutality is endemic to the system, every action of Cop Meets Citizen, here, or abroad, is taken under the assumption that the Citizen is the enemy, and must be subdued, brought under "our" control. Whether a citizen in his home or a whole nation. This from chat: 23:58listening to the scanner... Pigs are fixin' to jump into an apartment, armored up... 23:58The dispatcher said that "last time we had to tase him". 23:59 and that nobody in the house likes cops (the CSPD and EP Co Sheriff refer to that as a B.O.L.O "Be On the Look Out") 23:59 Imagine that, a gang of uniformed thugs holds somebody down, beating him and torturing him, in front of his family, and they wonder why nobody likes them. 00:00 Actually they DO know, but they think their guns and gang will keep anybody from doing any retaliation, just like their foreign policy. 00:01Oderint dum Metuant, let them hate us as long as they fear us. 00:02Caligula and Nero's motto. 00:02 What wonderful people they worship as heroes!! And they want to export that kind of "freedom" everywhere in the world. Freedom to obey. Then they get all weepy and wringing their hands when people fight back. Like the famous line from War and Peace: "why, they're shooting at me... ME, who everybody loves!" But wait... there's MORE... Here's an update on that police call... something extra special... You're gonna love this. The dispatcher was sending in the cavalry, armed and loaded for a massive fight..00:46 The person they had tasered and had the advisory about...00:46 was the man in Apartment B.00:47 And the call they were responding to was in Apartment A.00:47 Across the complex from each other. How many times have similar "oopsies" happened in Afghanistan and Iraq? Using similar techniques, technologies and the cops are recruited straight out of the military. What kind of odds does that make that Drone Strikes are even targeted at the right addresses, the right towns even? What proof or even evidence do we have that the Military Intelligence services, operating in foreign lands where, unlike their "para-civilian" stormtroopers here, they haven't had the "suspected" terrorists in custody, haven't interviewed them, and don't have any experience of having been physically at the address of the people they're killing? Wikileaks has answers, that's why Wikileaks is under attack from the piggoes.
Mad-ministration scared now…
Tunisia, Lebanon, now Cairo. They're said to be the lynchpins in "Middle East Peace" meaning Pox Americana. Somehow ONLY the U.S. is capable of determning peace terms WTF? Maybe there IS a huge disconnect in perception here in America. (Ok, "maybe" is just being polite) but going around conquering nations isn't exactly a stabilizing mechanism. Setting up puppet dictators in those conquered nations, conquered either through overt war like in Iraq and Afghanistan and Greece and South Korea, or through Diplomacy coupled with assassinations. That won't lead to peace either. There was a saying in the Military "Peace, through superior firepower" well, that's not peace, that's conquest. You can only force people to do your will for a limited time. Sooner or later, usually sooner, it comes roaring back and bites you square on your arse. Now Obama and Mrs Clinton are treading a fine line, do we overtly back the demonstrators, in the hopes that they'll be nice to our Slaverymongers Ambassadors of goodwill and freedom, or back Mubarak in the off chance that he'll be able to suppress this rebellion (doing it on behalf of his Washington UberMeisters) and "We" would have to make nice to him. All to keep up a maintainable position in VietRaquiStan. Synonymous terms: Fat chance, slim chance, not a snowball's chance in Hell.
Death of a Chaplain.
First, it should be noted that Doctors, Psychiatrists and Chaplains are, like everybody else in the services, Combatants under the Geneva Conventions. Their orders are to keep the soldiers physically and mentally and "morally" able to follow their orders, which are to Kill Other Human Beings. That's the whole purpose of a Military Organization. Although sometimes, if the Other Human Beings grovel enough to them (like Karzhai and al Maliki do) they'll be allowed to live, just as slaves. So when a "Mountain Post" Chaplain, Baptist Minister, got blown away in VietRaqiStan early last month, and the local news kept up the steady patter about how he volunteered for "duty" after the 9/11 Bush-ordered Mass Murder, to spread the word of Jesus. Only, Jesus never told anybody to Kill anybody. So Chaplains have to make shit up in order to justify what they're ordered to do, keep the Soldiers and Airmen and Marines and Sailors from feelings of guilt and remorse over Killing Other Human Beings. Preachers, religious leaders, and other propagandists for the Enemy-du-Jour are frequently targeted under legal codes naming them as accomplices. Under the Bush Doctrine, which Obama never repealed, anybody who "gives aid and comfort" even by failing to enthusiastically support Killing Other Human Beings could be determined by a Homeland Security or Military or even Mercenary Contractor Assassination Squad to be an Enemy Combatant. Without, of course, trial, charges, any kind of Rule of Law stuff. These are the same kinds of War Crimes and Crimes against Humanity for which first Nazis convicted at Nurnberg and many Iraqi officials were executed. But because the U.S. Chaplains are Americans and for the most part Christian (there are also Jewish, Muslim, Hindu, Sikh, Native American Church, Wiccan etc Chaplains, so it's almost an equal opportunity to sell the souls of your congregation deal), well, you do the math. But, really, what exactly differentiates a Christian Chaplain from any other propagandist? In Christian, Judaic and Muslim laws one of God's Top Ten List is "Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain". I don't know the details on Sikh or Hindu or Buddhist or whoever else, completely out of range of my experience. I'm pretty sure they've got laws against blasphemy and killing as well. Fact is, the Chaplain in question wasn't, under the definitions he was hired and commanded to propagate and reinforce, "murdered". But that's a technicality. He might have embraced it, in fact there's no way to be a Military (or Paramilitary, like the Police) Chaplain and say anything at all contrary to what you're ordered to say. Not ordered by God to say it, but by the Empire. That brings up another issue. The Chaplains are also commanded (and could conceivably get the death penalty under a charge of Mutiny) to tell their Congregants that GOD, Himself, tells them they must obey every order of the Emperor. The good Chaplain might have accepted these precepts, and sold them wholesale to his flock, (Pastor
US/UK “Liberators” not allowing Afghan Liberty
What a surprise. The Puppet Karzhai government, as always echoing what Washington and London (but mainly Wall Street) tell them, is refusing to seat Members of Parliament elected "fraudulently". This from the most farcical "democracy" in history. Even the French and American puppets in Saigon weren't so obsequious. Or obviously propped up by Imperial Storm Troopers. That says a lot. The American and Koalition of the Killing soldiers standing guard outside polling places, to make sure nobody did a "terrorist" action like voting for somebody not on the Approved List, allowed those who WERE on the approved list to cast a few hundred thousand Phantom Ballots for themselves, Or So The Story-Line Goes So, what are the Conquero oops "Liberators" going to do next? It's THEIR Pentagon propaganda ploy. They deliberately dealt themselves this card, the question is what kind of bets are they making on this hand? Dissolve the Karzhai Puppet Show completely, declare an "international emergency" that allows the Corporate Thieves to keep the occupation going far beyond that 2014 magic number? Well, that part is a given. But since that wasn't really dependent on the elections anyway... either on Afghan or Iraqi or U.S. or U.K. or E.U. election results... There's a lot of seemingly small steps to take in the 'three years til exit" time frame to ensure they can make such a decision. Rigging the American elections with screams of Fraud being one step. The TeaBags, for instance, want to pass a Noble Law that only those with "valid" Original Birth Certificates can participate in the body politic. Valid as defined by them, of course. Would that mean that my birth certificate, which isn't the original, could be used to prevent me from voting? From speaking? From travel without a "Special Permit" from the Minutemen? Since they, too, are Puppet micro-dictatorships the same way any Afghan or Iraqi provincial governor is. Their Minuteman and TeaParty Brownshirts are no different by any measure than any other group of mindless puppets. Rand Paul and his Koward Kentucky Komrades are in every bit as tenuous a position as any other Banana Republic, no matter how many dissenters they can corner and stomp on in a three-on-one "fight". They were installed by the Corporate Empire and can be uninstalled by the Corporate Empire just as easily. Of course, and you knew there would be an "of course", right? it depends a whole lot on if the Corporate Imperial Stormtroopers can hang on to their ill-got gains in Afghanistan and Iraq. And on their supposition that people who have seen 5000 years of Empires come and go, being so stupid and ignorant that they wouldn't recognize the failed trickery of those failed Empires.
