June bugs are now September bugs. They last longer thanks to climate change.
As an uncivilized simian I only take issue with the term 'our civilization.' Our? Who're us? Not me, that's for sure.
#149 Michigan Public Radio this morning says thanks to climate change Michigan farmers can plant crops more north. Funny propaganda. Everyone in MI knows that we had the worst winter on record and this summer is a bummer. 70 degree days in July when it's usually 95. Good luck with those northern crops! NPR says it's getting warmer! Rest assured, the climate priests have declared the mysterious invisible force from the climate god called "polar vortex part II" has come to pause warming once again! (Someone should coordinate that info with Michigan Public Radio!) http://tinyurl.com/qg27dpp Adding to the constant contradictions, in May when Michiganders had their winter coats on with record freezing temperatures, the Climate Report announced record warm temperatures were threatening Michigan crops! http://tinyurl.com/ogr9y4p
You can expect a cool summer to follow Michigan's brutal winter: Here's why April 20, 2014 at 8:13 AM The cool pattern may continue through June for Michigan, the Climate Prediction Center says. Northern Lower Michigan and the Upper Peninsula have a higher chance of colder than normal temperatures. Lower Michigan's southern half looks like it will likely be cooler than normal, but probably not extremely cold. http://tinyurl.com/k56uczf --------------------------------------------- CHICAGO WEATHER: POLAR VORTEX IN JULY? 2 DAYS OF 'UNSEASONABLE COLD' POSSIBLE CHICAGO (WLS) -- Polar Vortex? Not quite, but Chicago weather is on pace for a cool down next week. "The jet stream will be buckling unusually far south for mid-July, allowing a cross polar flow of chilly air," ABC7 Meteorologist Mike Caplan said. Residents won't need boots or shovels, but a sweater may come in handy in the evenings. The July version of the "polar vortex" that brought a deep freeze over Chicago for much of the winter wouldn't involve snow. And would only last a couple of days. "Temperatures will be unseasonably cool," Caplan said of next week. "Highs will be hard pressed to hit 70 on Tuesday, and lows will be close to record level." The cooler temperatures settle in overnight Monday into Tuesday and last through Wednesday night. During that time period, overnight lows could fall into the low 50s. Daytime highs could be in the high 60s. Temperatures are likely to rebound to more typical July levels by the end of next week, Caplan said. http://tinyurl.com/ohzfpw7 ------------------------------------- Stop the press: the climate god speaks! Al Gore: climate change is the 'biggest crisis our civilisation faces' Climate change is "the biggest crisis our civilisation faces", says former US Vice President Al Gore. Mr Gore sat down with the BBC's Jon Donnison in Australia, where his organisation, The Climate Reality Project, was holding training sessions to educate future leaders in the fight against climate change. Australia's conservative Prime Minister Tony Abbott is viewed by many as a climate change sceptic and once described the science behind human- induced global warming as "absolute crap". "We're way past time where it's responsible for any national leader to reject the science behind the climate crisis," Mr Gore said. Eight years after he released the film An Inconvenient Truth, Mr Gore said we have come a long way in awareness of global warming, but there is still much more to be done to find solutions. http://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-28199131

As he lay mortally wounded, Archie weakly please for world peace. Betty and Verionica, who just minutes before narrowly escaped death by Israeli bulldozers while vainly trying to protect the homes of freedom fighting apartheid victims, their ears to Archie's lips, relay his last words to the world: "Archie says, 'Being anti-Israel does not equate to anti-Semitism!'" Veronica shouts to the press gathered round. "And he says," Betty adds, "'Being anti-Zionist does not equal anti-Semitism!'" As the girls sob and Roger Waters props up his head, Archie musters one last pearl of peaceful wisdom for the world before he passes into comic book heaven. "And he urges you all to realize," the girls cry out in unison, "'Accepting the fact that Jews should be rid from Palestine also does not equate to anti-Semitism.'" A page is turned.

One of the many reasons Rane is a pompous fool: Rane Curl response 153 of 156: Mark Unseen Jul 15 15:40 EDT 2014 Sigh...still doesn't know the difference between weather and climate. Most of the warming alarmists/hoaxers refer to catastrophic WEATHER. They cite high temperatures in WEATHER cycles. They warn of warmer summers and winters and melting Arctic ice (another disproved hoax*). But far be it for me to argue against NOAA: "Climate is generally defined as average weather, and as such, climate change and weather are intertwined. Observations can show that there have been changes in weather, and it is the statistics of changes in weather over time that identify climate change." http://tinyurl.com/nl2pt5y The insulting over-simplistic attack from hoaxers is often, "you are confusing climate and weather." While that may silence some criticism, it will not silence me. It is true that climate refers to changes in weather over time. It is also true that the premise of global warming is that excessive carbon in the atmosphere caused by man will heat the planet, causing warmer temperatures. That, by most rational people's logical thinking is a disruption of normal WEATHER. Greenpeace International: "Climate change means more extreme weather like flooding and droughts." http://tinyurl.com/nl2pt5y Perhaps they "still don't know the difference between weather and climate." Right Rane? National Geographic: "More intense storms are an example of extreme weather brought on by climate change, experts say." http://tinyurl.com/oc6mrmb More evidence that National Geographic is as washed up as Rane? I mean, lets get serious. If they don't know the difference between climate and weather, they should clamp up! National Wildlife Federation: "Global warming is increasing the frequency and severity of extreme weather events around the world." http://tinyurl.com/oyzcypr Not the NWF!

Then again, I'm not a gullible fan-boy of extremist left talking points so I'm not cozy with the contradictions of wannabe non- climate scientists like Rane. * http://www.reportingclimatescience.com/news-stories/article/latest- data-shows-arctic-ice-volume-has-increased.html
resp:156 Hyperbole. There's a difference between being, "anti-Israel" and being "against some of the policies of the state of Israel." And while believing that "Palestine should be rid of the Jews" is, indeed, anti-semitism, disagreeing with certain Israeli governmental policies is NOT, in general, anti-semitism.
Disagreeing with British rule of American colonies is anti-Britishism. Fighting South African apartheid is terrorism. Jewistan strong.
resp:158 As it was intended. While there is an intellectual difference between anti-semitism and anti-Israel, in practice that line is really blurry. And the recent protests around the world seem to indicate to me that things like the BDS movement and opposition to Israel's actions against Gaza are thinly veiled anti-semitic campaigns. http://blog.adl.org/anti-semitism/hitlerwasright-hashtag-twitter-gaza-israe l I'm not going to accuse everyone of being anti-semitic. But the sentiments seem to be really close.
resp:160 And that's part of the real problem. No sensible solution to the problems between Israelis and Palestinians can be advanced as long as the entire issue is so strongly and emotionally tied to religion.
#158 Well said. #159 Agreed. #160 "While there is an intellectual difference between anti-semitism and anti-Israel, in practice that line is really blurry." Not sure how you qualify this. Are you talking about the actions of Israel's neighboring residents or the actions of neighboring governments? Or is it that you are referring to opinions on the matter in the world press?
Re #160: > While there is an intellectual difference between anti-semitism and > anti-Israel, in practice that line is really blurry. And the recent > protests around the world seem to indicate to me that things like the > BDS movement and opposition to Israel's actions against Gaza are thinly > veiled anti-semitic campaigns. Who's a Semite? If by Semite you mean Jew. Who's a Jew? Define that clearly and I'll remove all your blurriness. > Jewistan: Finally Recognizing Israel as the Jewish State -- http://is.gd/CN9nVP -- (redirects to DissidentVoice.org) Is there such thing as anti-Americanism? If so, why does it exist and which American group is it directed at? Can a group with a homogeneous self-identification commit atrocities? Was the firebombing of Dresden anti-Germanism? Anti-Nazism? You just hide behind the veil of a well-publicized Jew-massaged vocabulary. And, yes, that's my anti-Jewism. I think the word 'Jew' is tainted like the word 'Aryan' and those who associate themselves with it are associating with criminals. They should be made aware of it and shunned if they persist. Jews made their newest brand of enemies from people otherwise very much inclined to physical and verbal tolerance.
resp:162 Sort of all of the above. As a casual observer, I see a lot of anti-semitism embedded in the so-called anti-Israel messages. I see the anti-Israel isnt anti-semitism argument trotted out a lot, ignoring that if youre anti-semitic then you are probably anti-Israel too. This is like the racist overtones Im seeing in a lot of the anti-immigration sentiments here at home. Again, they are different and Im not going to accuse of everyone who is anti-immigrant of being racist, but I digress. resp:163 Aryans are not being specifically targeted for their race, so identifying as aryan isnt important. But since Jews are, it is important to know whether or not a particular individual would consider themselves as part of the target group. Sentiments like yours are forming a stronger Jewish identity. I hope you realize that.
Re #164: Such things as an Aryan race or a Jew race does not exist. End of story. Both are constructed for the very purpose of extortion and abuse. Victimization of others by banding together and playing the victim when suited to their purposes. I have seen many Aryan white supremacists whining about persection with the same crocodile tears as Jews do. I know the game all too well. Again, define it for me: what is a Jew? About Aryans, I know they don't exist. That one is crystal clear to me. Various bunches of unrelated and disparate people have made claims to a title that has never made any sense outside of linguistics. And even in linguistics it has been a complex matter not amenable to any form of identity politics except by gross distortion of reality. Let's see if you can do better for Jews. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > But since Jews are [...] Who? Where? How? When?

I'm a reactionary. I see evil. I point it out. I realize quite well the rabbis who call intermarriage 'silent Holocaust' even actively promote that evil to get reactions like mine. Let them. Isolation has never produced anything but malignance. I'll let the rabbis and their "secular" counterparts ensure that.
I am referring to ethnically Jewish people. You want me to say "ethnicism" instead of "racism"? You know what I mean when I talk about racism, even if races are social constructs. I'm not interested in arguing semantics.
Er, on #165, 'that evil' is the 'evil' in the earlier sentence, not intermarriage. Just in case someone reads it the wrong way.
Re #166: For starters, Jews cannot be an ethnicity. If a Sephardi is the same ethnicity as a Mizrahi then you're an Uyghur, too. It makes a world of difference if you understand these titles are constructed. If something is constructed and people willingly adopt it you go from something foisted on them by birth to a voluntary association. If the voluntary association is with a demonstrably criminal group the person is responsible for those crimes. Any voluntary associate and/or beneficiary of evildoing is responsible for that evildoing. Worse yet, you have associates of this gang that provide material and rhetorical assistance to crime under the cover of other affiliations and taint those affiliations, too. This is the case for many self-identified Jews in "diaspora."

"Most of the warming alarmists/hoaxers refer to catastrophic WEATHER." Actually, all of the climate warming deniers are by choive blind to the overwhelming evidence for climate warming due to human activities. The scientists' evidence for climate are long term trends and the effects of the long term trends on *average* weather, plant and animal extinctions, increasing flooding of low-lying land (ocean level is undeniably increasing faster than in historical the historical record), etc. Of course, as average temperatures (and sea level) rise, this is superimposed on fluctations in both. But the maxima also show increases. For example, the maximum global temperatures that have been measured have all occurred in just the most recent period of the historical record. (But what a waste of time it is to try to disabuse climate change deniers of the lies they love.)

Here's a whopper for Rane [ROFL]:
Federal appeals court invalidates some ObamaCare subsidies, in blow to
health law
http://tinyurl.com/l8y727s
WASHINGTON A federal appeals court dealt a major blow to ObamaCare on
Tuesday, ruling against the legality of some subsidies issued to people
through the Affordable Care Act exchanges.
Though the ruling is likely to be appealed, the decision threatens to
gut the foundation of the law by potentially nixing subsidies that
millions of people obtained through the federally run exchange known as
HealthCare.gov.
A three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of
Columbia ruled 2-1 that the IRS went too far in extending subsidies to
those who buy insurance through that website.
The suit maintained that the language in ObamaCare actually restricts
subsidies to state-run exchanges -- of which there are only 14 -- and
does not authorize them to be given in the 36 states that use the
federally run system.
The court agreed.
We reach this conclusion, frankly, with reluctance. At least until
states that wish to can set up Exchanges, our ruling will likely have
significant consequences both for the millions of individuals receiving
tax credits through federal Exchanges and for health insurance markets
more broadly, the ruling stated.
The case, Halbig v. Burwell, is one of the first major legal challenges
that cuts to the heart of the Affordable Care Act by going after the
legality of massive federal subsidies and those who benefit from them.
The decision said the law "unambiguously restricts" the subsidies to
insurance bought on state-run exchanges.
The dissenting opinion, though, claimed political motivations were at
play. This case is about Appellants not-so-veiled attempt to gut the
Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act ('ACA'), the dissent stated.
The ruling, though likely to be appealed, could threaten the entire
foundation of the newly devised health care system. Nearly 90 percent of
the federal exchange s insurance enrollees were eligible for subsidies
because of low or moderate incomes, and the outcome of the case could
potentially leave millions without affordable health insurance.
Today s decision rightly holds the Obama administration accountable to
the law, Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, said in a written statement adding,
As it has on so many occasions, the Obama administration simply
ignored the law and implemented its own policy instead.
The next step for the Obama administration would be that they request a
so-called en banc ruling, which means there would be a vote taken by all
of the judges on the court. An appeals court can only overrule a
decision made by a panel if the court is sitting en banc.
White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest stressed Tuesday that different
courts have reached different conclusions on the subsidy issue, and
said that the latest ruling does not have any practical impact at
this point on the ability of people to get tax credits.
He said the Department of Justice will likely appeal to the full D.C.
Circuit Court and defended the administration s position that Congress
intended all eligible Americans to have access to the subsidies
regardless of which entity set up the exchange.
We are confident in the legal position that we have, Earnest said.
Ron Pollack, founding executive director of Families USA, said in a
written statement that the ruling represents the high-water mark for
Affordable Care Act opponents, but the water will recede very quickly.
He added, It will inevitably be placed on hold pending further
proceedings; will probably be reheard by all of the 11-member active
D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals members, who predictably will reverse it;
and runs contrary to an expected ruling on a similar case in the Fourth
Circuit Court of Appeals.
The appeals process could eventually lead to the U.S. Supreme Court
deciding on the legality of the subsidies, but Pollack, whose group
supports the law, believes that won t happen.
Of the 11 judges that could rehear the case, seven are Democrats and
four are Republicans.
Halbig v. Burwell, which previously had been called Halbig v. Sebelius,
is one of four federal lawsuits that have been filed aimed at targeting
the idea of tax credits and other subsidies afforded under ObamaCare.
A total of $1 trillion in subsidies is projected to be doled out over
the next decade.
A U.S. District Court previously sided with the Obama administration on
Jan. 15.
A decade, 1 trillion USD subsidies to Americans to stay alive. Five years, 2 trillion USD extortion by "defense" contractors to kill people. I'd say Obama did your 'Murcins good, walkman. Disagree?
#197 Obama is by the people, for the people. Which people? PS $1 trillion for the healthcare industry. Not sure who is staying alive outside of a few Disco Stews. Not sure what a Murcin is. ;)
Ah, ha ha ha Staying Alive, Staying Alive http://simpsons.wikia.com/wiki/Disco_Stu
Bashir bin Laden is not "of the people" so he gets the gift of military spending. http://simpsons.wikia.com/wiki/Bashir_bin_Laden
Maybe I'm just a bitter clinger because I didn't qualify for the subsidies. ;) My employer offers no health benefits. Most of the engineering firms once did but this is no longer the case post Obamacare. I looked into Obamacare as an option. Aside from the fact that it was $900/month and had a $2,000 per person deductible, I found out you pay for it AFTER TAX. WTF? Thanks Obama what a great deal! Cheaper than a cell phone bill? WHAT? Now...consider that what I would pay for family coverage will apply to 4.7 million Americans who no longer can ride the wave of entitlement. --------------------------------------------------------------- Obamacare Ruling by the Numbers: 4.7 Million People Could Lose Subsidies http://tinyurl.com/lm74qyp A federal appeals court panel ruled on Tuesday that the Affordable Care Act doesn t allow the U.S. government to help people buy insurance; only states can do that. We conclude that the ACA unambiguously restricts [subsidies] to insurance purchased on Exchanges established by the State, the judges wrote (PDF). Since 36 states decided not to establish Obamacare marketplaces, residents in those places will lose the federal help they expect to get if the ruling stands. The case, Halbig v. Burwell, is headed to appeal and could end up before the Supreme Court. If Tuesday s ruling is upheld, however, the scope of disruption will be staggering. It would gut Obamacare in states that chose not to participate. Here s a look at the potential fallout, by the numbers: 4.7 million: That s the number of people receiving subsidies in the federal marketplace this year, according to federal data (PDF). 86 percent: The proportion of subsidy recipients, out of all those who bought insurance on federal exchange. The vast majority of people who used the the federal insurance-exchange website to buy coverage received some sort of subsidy. 14 million: That s the rough estimate of how many people would receive federal subsidies by 2017, if current enrollment patterns continue. The first-year numbers understate the impact because total exchange enrollment is expected to triple, to 25 million, in the next three years, according to Congressional Budget Office estimates (PDF). 1.5 million: The number of people in just Florida and Texas the two biggest participants in the federal exchanges who would lose insurance subsidies. Nearly one-third of all federal subsidies offered to healthcare.gov enrollees went to someone in Florida and Texas. Health- care providers in those states would face the biggest wave of uninsured people, driving up costs for hospitals that have to provide emergency care, regardless of patients ability to pay. $46,680: An individual who earns that much per year four times the federal poverty level is eligible for federal insurance subsidies. For a family of four, the income threshold is $95,400. Stripping subsidies for millions of Americans would significantly trim the costs of Obamacare.

Back peddling (source is climate.gov): Why did Earth s surface temperature stop rising in the past decade? http://tinyurl.com/l3mtklo The most likely explanation for the lack of significant warming at the Earth s surface in the past decade or so is that natural climate cycles a series of La Ni a events and a negative phase of the lesser-known Pacific Decadal Oscillation caused shifts in ocean circulation patterns that moved some excess heat into the deep ocean. Even so, recent years have been some of the warmest on record, and scientists expect temperatures will swing back up soon. ----------- Wishful thinking? LOL Next, see: polar vortex and other fables
Mental illness: PELOSI: BORDER CHILDREN SHOULD BE TREATED LIKE REFUGEE BABY JESUS http://tinyurl.com/q5ze6mf Tuesday on MSNBC "Morning Joe," House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D- CA) discussed the humanitarian crisis of tens of thousands of unaccompanied minors illegally flooding across the U.S.-Mexico border. The congressional leader dismissed the strain on our nations financial resources to care for all the children of the world in troubled areas, saying she believes the U.S. government should look at the children like " baby Jesus," who she added "was a refugee from violence." Pelosi concluded, "I reference the conference of bishops statement in which they say baby Jesus was a refugee from violence. Let us not turn away these children and send them back into a burning building. That's the bishops, so we have to do this in a way that honors our values but also protects our border and does so in a way that the American people understand more clearly."
Regarding the perpetual characterization that the illegals are "children": "The migrants were almost entirely male (about 94 percent, a bit higher than other surveys have found), and more than half were in their 20s. About 59 percent were low-skilled workers, mainly in agriculture and construction." http://tinyurl.com/mbpk52b

Re #198: Is your summary that said 1 trillion USD will not improve the lives of at least a few million of the Great Patriotic Nation of America? I really doubt it won't. So, the comparison again: 1. Spend 2 trillion on killing tens of thousands. 2. Spend 1 trillion on improving life for a few millions. Would you contend that (2) is not better than (1)? In fact, let's make (2) into (2a) like this: 2a. Spend 1 trillion on handing out free ice cream, condoms, and cannabis. Would you contend that (2a) is not better than (1)?
#208 Spending $1 Trillion or $2 trillion that The Great Patriotic Nation of America does not have on medical insurance or war. That's where the foolhardy like Rane get confused. That money has to come from somewhere. Insert the lecture on "no free lunch." That aside, the limited choices are pretentious. Why not $5 trillion for a New World Order? $3 Trillion for peace, love and harmony?
Re #202: Rcurl, that is not an answer to what I asked. It also is not your thoughts. I asked why do _you_ think _these_ "denial" paradigms take shape and find some popularity. The "denial" paradigms are not limited to AGW "denial." That one is one out of many. There's no relationship between the English language and those vast families of "denial" paradigms either. They can be found in any language I know, and I think also in all other languages. The subjects may vary but there's a unifying deep structure to them. Now, to ask again: why do _you_ think _these_ "denial" paradigms take shape and find some popularity?

"I asked why do _you_ think _these_ "denial" paradigms take shape and find some popularity." For largely the reasons given in the sites I cited. But, since you seem to value words directly from me so much. The denial of global warming comes firstly from those that are uninformed but easily influenced by baseless conspiracy theories or other pseudo-scientific babble, and who inherently mistrust intellectuals, scientists. or "authority". And secondly from the individuals and corporations whose jobs and incomes will be affected negatively by the steps necessary to mitigate global warming. The former group suffers from poor thinking. The latter like to encourage the former but have a case to be considered. There needs to be new thinking about how to maintain a reasonable economy while taking the steps necessary to mitigate the negative effects of global warming. This will at best require some rearrangements of the national and global exonomies, which is for many a difficult and threatening course.

Oversimplify much? Was it a conspiracy when the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) concluded that the earth is cooling and is headed for more cooling? Is it a conspiracy that Antarctica s sea ice set another record this week, reaching 815,448 square miles above normal, breaking a record set this past weekend of 800,776 square miles above normal ice coverage?

It's startling how effortlessly Obama lies. I came across a quote from Barry where before his first term he tried to distance himself from Islam. Despite the fact that his mother was an atheist, he had this to say: "My father was from Kenya and a lot of people in his village were Muslim. He didn't practice Islam. Truth is he wasn't very religious. He met my mother. My mother was a Christian from Kansas, and they married and then divorced. I was raised by my mother. So, I've always been a Christian. The only connection I've had to Islam is that my grandfather on my father's side came from that country. But I've never practiced Islam." Raised as a Christian! Wow. Maybe to Barry that Christians are born Christian like so many Jews. I guess that makes me a Christian. Religious caste system. PS for a Christian, Barry has a lot of bad things to say about Christianity. Dreams of Jeremiah Wright.

"Is the United States the worst enemy of humankind to have existed so far? [ ] Yes [ ] No." No. And it is a nonsense question. The US maintains a society of relatively great safety, freedom, and opportunity for its citizens. Many citizens of other countries make great efforts to come to live in the US. They are judging that where they live is a "worse enemy of mankind". Few US citizens voluntarily leave on the grounds life will be better elsewhere, though there is no question that some other coutries offer better circumstances for particular aspects of living. What are the worst enemies of hamankind are many humans. They are too self-centered and widely care less for the common good than for their own benefits, as both individuals and as tribes.

Oracle closed up everything Sun had opened. Or maybe it was the other way around? Seeing the prospect of acquistion Sun started pushing things out for free? Or maybe it all just happened.
In Automotive where Sun had a dominant presence, HP has fully taken it's place. I haven't seen anything with a Sun logo in over 12 years. Not sure what goes on in other industries. From the late 90's to early 2000's Sun had the only hardware capable of running the powerful engineering cad software and back-end. After the dominant software (Unigraphics) migrated to Windows, Unix use became rare. I'm not too excited about it. I really do not favor Windows. Now that my mind is "going there" I just remembered a transition between Sun and HP. We were using IBM AIX workstations. They were probably cheaper. Who knows. I still remember the fancy splash screen that came up when you turned the machine on. Colorful balls moving around. Whoopee!
re #250 . From the late 90's to early 2000's Sun had the only hardware capable of running the powerful engineering cad software and back-end. We had CATIA running on the IBM RS6000's but I saw a ton of Sun at GM and Fordz. I suspect the Sun implosion followed Novell's misguided crack addiction.
Sun: 7.4B, Whatsapp: 19B. Seriously what the hell.

Re #258: You have a serious problem of scale that appears to be quite common with Americans. Protip: change of scale can change category. Conspiring to win a 3000-head town's elections; leading a nation of 313 million by the nose; misleading a population of over 3 billion. Vastly different matters. Now, it is said in these quarters that an egg-thief will (eventually) become a horse-thief. I wouldn't go ahead and condemn the egg-thief for hypothetical future horses but once horse thievery becomes blatantly obvious there's no room for erring on the side of feigned causion--except for those with an already determined agenda. Either that, or you are entirely unaware of the scale of the ruse. Remember what I told you before about Ingersoll Rand?

That said, "terrorism" is a label for a response to the modern state and its majority base. "Western World" is not a "world:" it's a federation of economic and ideological interests guarded by military might and "terrorism" is one type of response from others with different economic and ideological interests. The "solution," like any gang war, is to respect the bosses and the turf. To each gang their own. I don't badmouth your boss and your gang insignia--you don't badmouth my boss and my gang insignia. With a balance of terror peace will be had. The breakdown of the Jewish State and the Hashemite Kingdom is inevitable, I think, based on the history of Levant. It's just a matter of how it's handled. Ideally, the territories are cleanly united. A secular constitution is drafted. Any Palestitian refugees who want to can return. Jews keep their Aliyah business. Whoever goes there will be required to unambiguously renounce any other citizenship or affiliation. Hebrew speakers can call the resultant country Beit Shalom and Arabic speakers Dar-us-Salaam. Iranians will give their eminent blessings to such arrangement and a middle finger to the US of A. Because that's what Iranians have wanted for that neck of the woods from the get-go. Oh, and Beit Shalom/Dar-us-Salaam will pay dues to the benevolent regional Iranian empire and America will keep collecting dues for its global empire ;-) Other possible outcomes involve economic breakdown of the US and a sort of Eurasian Sino-Russian-with-some-Iran cocktail that I really would not like to see.

#272 "Other possible outcomes involve economic breakdown of the US and a sort of Eurasian Sino-Russian-with-some-Iran cocktail that I really would not like to see. It won't be the first time Jews sold out Americans to Russia." We are on an obvious path to this scenario. I don't think the sudden Palestine/Israel conflict and the Ukraine civil war are coincidentally timed. U.S. played a role in Ukraine's destabilization and Israel false flagged the 3 kids into conflict at just the right time.

Mine is #291.
re #296 Well, Hamas is a sounding board to help other countries try to project themselves as having power and influence. Iraq, Syria, and even Lebanon probably have more actual value politically and certainly many people in Iran dont want to see Palestinians receiving military aid. I think the majority in the USA feel the same way about Israel... Nobody likes what is going on over there where civilians are piling up in the middle of the eye for an eye b.s.
Eye for an eye doesn't work like that, just in case. It's a very good principle if, when, and where it's put in practice. If for every Arab killed a Jew were killed Jews would learn their place faster. The current issue is imbalance of terror. Once a balance of terror is reached peace will be had. For the time being, Jews bark quite often and quite loudly which is not a sign of fear.
re #299 If for every Arab killed a Jew were killed Jews would learn their place faster. So, knowing that for every Jew killed then 100 Palestinians die, why do the dumbshit Hamas shoot missles? Reminds me of old footage of the Detroit riots where folks burned their own neighborhoods only to have the National Guard and news media show up to mock them.
Re #300: > So, knowing that for every Jew killed then 100 Palestinians die, why do > the dumbshit Hamas shoot missles? Demography is a slow-acting but extremely powerful force. And non-Western peoples are very patient :-) Since the 1948-49 massacres it took 30-40 years to get the New Historians to arise and document history free of Zionist deception. Well worth it. Generally, truth prevails in the long term. The Arab blood donated to that cause ensured that truth remained not only of value for shaping views but also relevant to the problem at hand: colonialism.
re #301 It would be interesting if folks had the same willingness to sacrifice themselves for truth when speaking of the corrupt Detroit but I just don't see that happening. I only see downward spiral into further apathy. I can't imagine there is a winner at the end of the Palestinian cause. Truth is one thing - but using one's own community as a sacrifice seems too much like what the Jews did in Europe during the 1930's. Why has Palestine given up so easily the fight for Jordan land?
Re #302: > Why has Palestine given up so easily the fight for Jordan land? I doubt they have. However, the opposition to their eventual demographic overcoming there is much less violent and there's no brazen, conniving, foul-mouthed horde of International Jews behind it either. The numbers of Palestinians have grown in Jordan without much ado, no walls, no fences, no checkpoints, _and_ citizen status for the absolute majority; Jordan's GDP has been growing steadily without a parasitic relationship to international finance; over not too long term, Palestinians will have their fair share of that and they know it. The Hashemites have become less exclusionary over time, in particular because they have needed to become so to be on good terms with Americans. Jews have not been kept on a similar tightening leash by Americans, for reasons you are (or should be?) well aware of.
I am suspecting that over time, the nations of this world have grown tired of the conflict and find it easier to just partner with Israel and give them what they want. What I'm saying is if they succeed with the narrative that Palestine is really Hamas (aka terrorist) and not a nation, the colonization is justified and the world can go back to their pop tarts, sushi and beer. No TV pictures of blown up Palestinian bodies, only the victimization of a few Jews because the enemy combatants are not human.

Re #334: You misunderstood. Arguing pro compassion for your dear tranny cannot take on the form of "maybe it's Turing."

A cripple who advertises his weakness as a quality to admire must be given heat (in speech). A kinder response is anti-social.

Transgenderism is not. That is, you cannot wear a dress with a stiffy under it. Personally I would rather all manners of deviance be tolerated in a society. In case of transsexuals the surgeries are an unnecessary threat to life and limb. They should be avoided and the Islamic Republic's support of them is actually taking on a punitive form. "You aren't being a full man/woman so we'll have to do some painful cut-and-paste on you." I'm a deviant in ways of thought and speech, and that would be good for me, too. Freedoms of thought and speech, for example, are tolerance of limitless deviance in those quarters. Which is what I support, which is why I linked #333 to bring up the matter of how far deviance of thought should be tolerated. (Possession of child sexual abuse images being somewhat farther than most wish to tolerate. I wouldn't criminalize possession or dissemination. That's thought-policing. Production or child molestation? Just hang them.) However, Iran and some other countries are under a barrage of propaganda for reasons entirely unrelated to tolerance. Nearly a million Iranians lost their lives not long ago to the military-political machinations which produce that barrage for economic and ideological interests of the West. Your little tranny and many like him of various karyotypes provide fodder for that machine when seeking for themselves the petty prospect of walking around in dresses or shopping at a fancier mall than the one near their Iranian home or mooching off a welfare state. Iran is a country at informal war and that behavior is informal treason. P.S. Persian idiom: "[Don't take me for an idiot.] I could've taught your grandfather lessons.

Here we go again. NASA Climate Scientist Explains 15-Year Global Warming Hiatus http://tinyurl.com/m86x6ck HAMPTON, Va. (WNEW) A NASA scientist described a recent global warming hiatus that shows Earth s surface temperatures warming at a slower rate than previous decades but it is still warming. Norman Loeb delivered a lecture entitled, The Recent Pause in Global Warming: A Temporary Blip or Something More Permanent? at the NASA Langley Research Center auditorium on Tuesday. The talk addressed challenges to scientists and increased skepticism among climate change skeptics due to the recent hiatus of global warming. The federal space agency climate scientist explored research into a slow-down in surface warming over the last 15 years referred to as the Global Warming Hiatus. In recent years, the global mean surface temperature on Earth has increased at a rate that is about one-third of that from the past 60 years. The global warming hiatus occurred despite record-breaking temperatures in the 2000s, retreating Arctic sea ice, rising sea levels and a record high global concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, according to a statement released by NASA. Opinions vary about the hiatus, as some view it as evidence that man- made global warming is a myth, NASA said in a press release. Others explain that it is simply due to climate variability that is temporarily masking a longer-term temperature trend. The question is what s driving it? said Loeb, according to the Virginian-Pilot. But his answer reflected the complexity of climate science and did not rule out either scenario based upon the last 15 years of the global warming hiatus. Loeb said that changes in solar radiation, water vapor and aerosol particles in the air have likely played a role, but a major factor may be an El Nino-like pattern of climate variability that has historically coincided with a slowing in global warming. Loeb noted that a rise in global temperatures slowed in the 1940s as the Pacific Decadal Oscillation climate pattern was active a pattern that similarly lasted 20-30 years. For average climate records, 30 years is like one data point, said Loeb, reiterating that while the Earth is warming more slowly, it is still warming. It s really forcing us to look at our models and observations and ask questions. In the global warming slowdown of the past 15 years, Loeb points out that the temperature is rising at nearly one-third the rate as before. The average temperature in the U.S. has risen about 1.5 degrees since the beginning of the 1900s. Loeb holds a doctorate in in atmospheric sciences from McGill University in Montreal, Canada, and is an atmospheric scientist in the Science Directorate at NASA Langley. Loeb is also the principal investigator of a satellite project called Clouds and the Earth s Radiant Energy System (CERES). Benjamin Fearnow

More on ISIS. Maybe you're seeing the propaganda of the boy with the severed head of a Syrian soldier? And then you'll notice US Congress saying ISIL instead of ISIS. I've mentioned before that Iran and US have been backing them for control in the Middle East. They want to create an emirate to destabilize Russian supported Syrian Regime. The Arabic name for ISIL is Daish and it intends to be camouflaged as a Sunni exclusive caliphate like the Ottoman Empire (but if you pay attention - it's simply a terror campaign.) www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Sxl9N3TOU4#t=42
It isn't Daish. Rather: daal, alif, ayn, sheen; ad-Dawlat ul-Islaamiyah fi-l-Iraaq-i wa-sh-Shaam. The Islamic Government in Iraq and Shaam. Shaam is Levant. ISIS vs. ISIL is just the choice of the Arabic or the English word for Levant. -- http://is.gd/Z5ulvD -- (redirects to ar.Wikipedia) I don't think Iran would've needed to dislodge the Syrian government if your DEBKAfile source is not lying and Israel bombed an Iranian-financed DPRK-delivered nuclear reactor in Syria. Or is DEBKAfile disinforming?
re #385 Does Erika Solomon write for DEBKAfile? Interesting...
Re #386: Doesn't answer either question. Does Erika also sleep with Amina from Damascus?
re #387 Your question is based on an assumption of my sources. Do you have access to DEBKAfile? It's subscription, right? Would I pay for something designed by Amit Shamis which simply looks like a portal of other mediums? Back to the original question, ISIL has been on the radar since Abu Bakr filled the void. Even Qod is known to be supplying support against them.
Re #388:
DEBKAfile has been trying to connect ("Obama, the [nutjob-narrative's]
Manchurian Candidate's") US and Iran for quite a while. Plenty of "shocking
yet true" style Web rumor is either somehow copied there or from there with
unclear order of attribution. At the same time, as its mission likely is, it's
been either omitting Israel from the narrative or giving it the appearance
of a tactical rather than strategic troublemaker. Furthermore, while casting
the US and Iran as current troublemakers you removed Israel as a possible
target. That also matched DEBKAfile's style of rumor because it tends to imply
Izzy is always safe somehow. (Can't disturb the money flow.) Hence my
inference.
About ISIS or ISIL, you seemed to be making a distinction on #384 between ISIS
and ISIL on the assumption that S is 'Syria' and not 'Shaam.' Then you
mentioned tandem American and Iranian support for 'them,' where it was unclear
which you meant if you distiguished ISIS and ISIL. Now on #388 you've
mentioned Qod[s] (Force?) support against 'them,' this latter also being a
vague pronoun.
One bit that seemed clear in what you said was the unusual claim that Iran
wanted (or needed?) the Syrian government--which many claim is _supported_
by Iran--dislodged. In the intrigue/propaganda rumor line that DEBKAfile had
previously copied off or fed to the US Jew-Right rumor mills Iran was
'nuclearly involved' with that same Syrian government and Izzy had "minimally"
bombed it. How do these claims add up?
What I've picked up so far is that ISIS/ISIL are a splinter group from
something larger and less organized. They are liked by neither the US nor
Iran. It stands to reason that if they've splintered from whatever was
fighting against the Syrian government then they might've duped the US/GCC
suppliers of anti-Assad forces into providing them unawares support. Their
career apparently has given both the US and Iran a mixed threat and
opportunity that allows the US and Iran to shift their geopolitics somewhat
under the created threat perception without causing too much suspicion.
Iranian support for that group, direct or indirect, makes no sense in this
narrative.
Your turn.

Robin Williams had Parkinson Disease and thus lost his bicycle/running method of stress reduction/depression avoidance. Red #40 in your 0 calorie drink will still kill you. At least, these are things the media is trying to convince me of.
#423 I call BS on the Parkinson excuse. Damage control. It could have been something people are not even thinking about. Or it could be as simple as he was super depressed and the depression pills had a suicide side-effect. Keep taking your pills people! I'm going to stand by my assessment of the "unrest" in Missouri. People are murdered in cold blood by police every day. When the media and the White House park their wagons around one of them and start yelling, there's some serious manipulation going on. Distraction with the added side effect of brain washing for policy changes. And they get to test out their shiny new military toys and containment strategies.

#464 This is what was said in #449: "Oh, that poisonous ideology: Islamic extremism who's objective is terrorism, murder, threat, violence, and general acts of sub-human savagery." You asked, "So, you believe such a thing exists?" I said that I do and Todd said the same. Not sure what you are driving at. I -absolutely- believe that Islamic extremism is a poisonous ideology. I hope that clears things up. And PS I do think cutting off non-muslim's heads and crucifying people in the name of God/Allah/what-have-you is sub-human behavior.
Re #465:
'kay, good. That's an answer. A 'yes.'
Let's dissect #449, then we'll get to tod's point which is actually a wholly
different matter:
> Islamic extremism who's objective is terrorism, murder, threat, violence,
and general acts of sub-human savagery.
Islamic extremism: There's something--one thing-- called Islam; it is a matter
of degree; if you have too much of that whatever it is it becomes an extreme.
False. Another reading would be there is a group called 'Islam' and it commits
acts of extermism--with a currently dangling definition of what constitutes
an extreme--and that's 'Islamic extremism.' Either the extremism has to do
with 'Islam' or it doesn't. If it does see before. If it doesn't, what's the
purpose of bringing 'Islamic' characterization into this description and what
constitutes extremism? Slap a 'war' label on it and go get good sleep.
Objective: It's unheard of that someone would make what you listed their
objective. Means to some end, sure. An example would be every existing
government. Governments rule by violence and threat of violence. The ones that
are more straightforward about their nature have nooses and a judicial
procedure for regulated murder. The ones that are more deceptive have killer
cops, hush-hush assassisns, and the Global Hawk.
Terrorism: Terrorism is often defined as an act of violence committed against
purported innocents for political gain. A much abused term and devoid of
meaning. It is unheard of that political points can be gained by anything
other than stoking up fear or pandering to greed. Greed kills quietly. Fear,
loudly. There's no alternative to these and the thin veneer of urbanity can't
hide the monkey's bare bottom.
Your discourse isn't even wrong. It's nonsensical.
Now, tod fixed the dead obvious mistakes for you. He moved Islam/religion from
modifier position to the substantive position. So in tod's meaningful
description 'extremism [in religion]' is not a matter of degree, rather a
category of its own. He also removed the funny perception you have been
spoonfed by Geller network that there can be such thing as violence as an end.
He acknowledged that 'extremist [religion]' might condone violence but did
not assert that the violence was the objective, as you did. Fortunately, he
understands quite well living in America's safest city has a direct
relationship to Uncle's global rule of instrumental terror.
What's wrong with his version? Two things:
1. Self-righteousness: he's made his nest, packed his things, moved to a
pretty town. From that safety he issues decrees of non-violence and vets
others' means of achieving their ends. Unknowingly perhaps, he's internalized
Barak's 'villa in the jungle,' too, and his primary political leaning is that
of 'not disturbing the jungle.' His 11 million are material to him but the
much closer 5 million whose blood powers the machines that keep him alive are
not. Not to mention the prior 2 million and the 2 million before that and the
3 million before those. Not including the chronic body count.
2. Rights before values: he wishes to defang religions, and in fact each and
every ideology and cultural muster of force, in favor of a set of rights
(along the lines of UDHR, possibly). He either naively fails to see or
deceptively omits that that particular set of rights will always have
challengers who have to be put down violently by 'protectors.' ('Right' being
a synonym for protection against others individually or collective taking
liberties against an interest). As well, he makes no mention of UDHR's
spectacular failure and effective gutting of the UN in the face of
institutionalized Western terror.
semantics on what extermism is christian fundamental islam extremist kahane jew they are all terrorists with slang names - not literal definitioms capice?
#466 Nice breakdown of the terminology. It's all fine and dandy. I was using known and accepted terminology. You have issues with it and you have some great points, but the fact remains: people are slain, enslaved and mutilated by groups calling themselves ISIS/ISIL/IS "Islamic State" and al Qaeda who are associated with Islam. They are killing other Muslims and they are killing non-Muslims. They are taking land and treasure in the name of what? You can break down the words but you can't eliminate the truth of the matter. These groups leverage terror and the threat of terror to achieve their objectives. And lets face it, there are objectives whether you say so or not. No group assembles and puts that much effort into taking land, treasure and human life without objectives. What are the objectives? Regime change (Muslim Brotherhood is an example), power, influence, donations, sustenance, religious conversion, etc.
Re #467: > semantics on what extermism is Close but no cigar. What were you doing in Desert Storm? What have you been doing in Saudi Arabia? In Qatar? Iraq? Libya? Syria? AfPak? Turkmenistan? You think history will not keep record of what you've been doing in India with BJP? It _is_ all about semantics. Making sense of what you say. You can go slapping labels on things. This is the American government--that is the Iranian regime. I'm a soldier/policeman--you're a terrorist. I'm not fooled, are you deluding yourself then? For Jew extremism look to finance and media Jew scum, by the way. Kahanism is tiny by comparison. Mentioning Kahanists and Likudniks without their providers of material and rhetorical cover/support/disguise/distraction is like mention of ISIL/ISIS without House of Saud and Rotana. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Re #468: > They are taking land and treasure in the name of what? You can break > down the words but you can't eliminate the truth of the matter. In the name of land and treasure. The purpose of power--kept by the pillars of wealth, violence, and rhetoric--is power. Same reason for which you take land and treasure. Kill the rivals, spread your genes, spread your memes. Monkey can't tell monkey not to. Dissociate and be absolved. -------------------------------------- > And lets face it, there are objectives whether you say so or not. Of course there are. That's what my #466 says. The objective is what you already have at the same price: power for violence.
re #469 What were you doing in Desert Storm? Whatever the people saw on CNN is apparently what I was doing. What have you been doing in Saudi Arabia? In Qatar? Iraq? Libya? Syria? AfPak? Turkmenistan? Rating the Honeys. Don't hate the Player - hate the game. Bros before Hoes. You think history will not keep record of what you've been doing in India with BJP?

Whoever it is should meet justice whether they are with one nation or another (mine included). American government carried out 911. They are capable of faking a terror group to kill innocent people. Absolutely. Now they are promising ISIS in american towns. I have no doubts they are serious. Mad men. They deserve the worst life has to offer. It's no wonder my government is so afraid of armed rednecks and ex-military.

#511 He believes what he is told and is upset. I don't think he's retarded. Just lacking focus and perspective.
Re #512: People like him who've been in an out of wars don't have the luxury of believing what they're told. It takes a particular slowness to have been there and still not see. First and foremost he must've seen from his friends being mowed down in war that pub bluster is not how real war goes.
Even McNamara was repentant and that chalkhead isn't.
Are the beheaders repentant? Are they retarded too?
McNamara was repentant because his wars didn't bring the results he wanted and were based on incorrect premises. ISIS is getting what it wants and is starting off correct premises, too. It's a criminal gang with local support, as opposed to McNamara's criminal gang that was operating on others' turf. The retard linked to on #511 is chastising others for what is/was his profession. And his pretense is that he and Americans in general have a higher moral ground; even more amusing, he (and you) is considering himself (and yourself) of a "higher, better" species, too. This man has been on others' lands, doing third persons' bidding in the most vicious manner imaginable, towards goals that were not consented to on those lands. ISIS is at least on its own lands. Whether you like it or not most people who oppose the US are doing so on and for their own lands; the message usually is "Yankee, get the fuck out." This gives them a permanent moral edge in the eyes of sane people. Every time an American opens their mouth about the world's goings-on someone should be there barking back at them: "Yankee, get the fuck out." That could prove a good remedy to self-righteousness. Only people who keep their feet inside their own borders get to complain in honesty. Guess something this simple is absent from whose fiction? I see you all--ISIS, Americans, Europeans, and other transgressors--as liars, thieves, and murderers. Emphasis on liars. What worsens it the stench of self-righteousness. It's unbearable. An honest mercenary, unlike that retard, would've said: "I think I can kill and terrorize more than you do. Bring it on."

If everyone believed their own government is the limit of their problems then the word "Jew" would never be on your tongue. I think that billy badass wannabe veteran is a clown for spewing warhawk chatter but at the same time it's the reaction expected to be evoked by the media.

How so? He's factual and to the point. No overt biases.
re #525 You aren't reading between the lines: Although publicly condemned by Washington, Iran offered assistance to overthrow the Taliban in Afghanistan, with a symbolical handshake between U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell and Iranian Foreign Minister Kamal Kharrazi at the U.N. headquarters. Iran also joined the United States to form a new government in Kabul. In 2003, Tehran tacitly welcomed the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq and the overthrow of Saddam Hussein, Iran.s strategic rival. The Iranian Foreign Ministry offered assistance to Washington, out of its national interest and fear of being invaded by the United States. Tehran emerged as the winner of the invasion, dominating Iraq socially, politically, economically, and in terms of security, while the U.S. position weakened gradually.
Re #526: That's all a common narrative. I have heard it often. I wouldn't mind believing it but I have reservations about it, too. You appear to have removed a key piece of fact, though. Iran offered the US the terms of a general truce at the same time including the alleged nuclear concerns. Cheney quipped, "we don't negotiate with evil." Along came this Jew, David Frum, who wrote for GWB that infamous speech. That was 2003, under Khatami. The rest is history. P.S. I wouldn't drum up Saddam too much, though. His status was a direct result of _both_ Western and Soviet support, nothing else. Even with that status he was a measly inch from falling in 1987 when Reagan decided "an Iranian victory is unacceptable."

"Empirical evidence does not lend much support to the notion that climate is headed precipitately toward more extreme heat and drought. In the U.S. there has been little temperature change in the past 50 years, the time of rapidly increasing greenhouse gases in fact, there was a slight cooling throughout much of the country" ------------------------------------ NOAA and CRU also reported no warming in the US during the century prior to 1989. February 04, 1989 Last week, scientists from the United States Commerce Department s National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said that a study of temperature readings for the contiguous 48 states over the last century showed there had been no significant change in average temperature over that period. Dr. (Phil) Jones said in a telephone interview today that his own results for the 48 states agreed with those findings. ------------------------------------- Right after the year 2000, NASA and NOAA dramatically altered US climate history, making the past much colder and the present much warmer. The animation below shows how NASA cooled 1934 and warmed 1998, to make 1998 the hottest year in US history instead of 1934. This alteration turned a long term cooling trend since 1930 into a warming trend. ------------------------------------- OOPS The Ministry of Truth must have missed the opportunity to make the necessary changes.

Re #538: AGW and climate change as a result of it, if it comes to pass and is as extreme as some predict, are not equally harmful to all people. In fact, the results may be liberating to many; including whole classes. Not to mention, not everyone even agree on what amounts to harm.
I'm sorry to report that the climate is not warming. This is to my dismay. The Farmer's Almanac is predicting another severe winter. Cooling planet. Climate pause. Polar vortex. Excuses and more excuses.
That's immaterial. Climate remains a subject of scientific inquiry and there will be more learnt about it over time. Whether you like it or not; whether any true or imagined conspiracy pro/contra one or another policy likes it or not. I think the important lesson to be learnt is that knowledge isn't necessarily illuminating. All these vicious non-discussions come from not knowing where and how to incorporate new knowledge.

Keeping up with the Joneses Iraq's air force was built by the Brits after WWII until the monarchy was overthrown 10 years later. That new regime built up ties with the USSR and had to be retrained on the MIG 17, 19, and 21's (plus Ilyushin bombers and transports.) They used those armaments against the Kurds all through the 60's. In the 70's, they added French Mirage fighters and used those in the 80's against Iran. What do you think ISIS will force them to buy?
Re #542: And you supply the weights?
#543 U.S. arms the Kurds in Iraq to fight U.S.-armed ISIS Obama administration officials announced today that they are sending arms to Kurdish forces in Iraq to bolster their fight against the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS). "ISIS has obtained some heavy weaponry, and the Kurds need additional arms and we're providing those there's nothing new here," said State Department representative Marie Harf. But where did that heavy weaponry come from? As Vox reported, the U.S.'s bombing campaign against ISIS is destroying hundreds of millions of dollars' worth of U.S. weapons and other military equipment that had originally been given to the Iraqi military, but fell into the hands of ISIS militants as they gained control over a wide swath of the country. In other words, the very equipment brought to Iraq by the U.S. following the 2003 invasion is now being used by ISIS terrorists to attack the Kurds, who in turn will be armed by further shipments of American weaponry. - - Bonnie Kristian http://theweek.com/speedreads/index/266190/speedreads-us-arms-the-kurds- in-iraq--to-fight-us-armed-isis

#596 sounds about as stupid as America. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Re #593: Decoy story. Maliki himself didn't design or start de-Ba'athification although he benefitted from it. In Iraq "Sunni" is a cover term for Ba'ath beneficiary due to the extent of Saddam's culture of dependency. These former beneficiaries cannot be trusted with positions of even small power, as seen in desertions of "Sunni" soldiers who _were_ recruited and left behind arms and equipment for ISIS. Removal of Maliki won't change the design or the trend either. It is a catharsis of Iraqi society by necessity rather than preference. These were the same subset of Iraqis who cheered for Saddam's al-Qadisiy'yah myths, had no sympathies against forced exile of more than a tenth of their countrymen under a label, and spared Iranian POW's no harrassment.

BTW, 'no strategy' sounds like a POTUS telling the truth for once. I realize being weaned off of big boy attitudes at once is hard, but it's for the best.
"BTW, 'no strategy' sounds like a POTUS telling the truth for once. I realize being weaned off of big boy attitudes at once is hard, but it's for the best." The situation did not develop overnight. Saying, "there is no strategy" is a great way to get people to lose confidence. Does a CEO say, "competition is tough, we have no strategy to deal with them?" Having the president of America say that is pretty incredible. Did Moses say, "I have no plan" to the 600,000 Israelites before they were driven out of Egypt? Hell no! He stood up like a man and led them to the promised land. He had a plan! Obama is not a leader.
Yes, it developed over the long history of American international crimes and blunders. At least eight decades of it until now. Historical events at the scale of decades don't fade with time. They accumulate and sometimes even become amplified by circumstances. Now, if you want the crimes and blunders since the 1930s to have faded you should deep-freeze yourself and set the timer to perhaps around year 2100. Do you prefer being lied to? Has that produced good results so far? If a CEO falsifies performance data presented to shareholders his head will be on a pike. This one is being nice enough to tell you you may want to jump ship while you can. No POTUS has been qualified enough to run a high school on his own since after Eisenhower.

If the EU had brains it'd be more concerned about US behavior than Russia. Russia is uninterested in expansion and would've been just happy to not be pestered while running its own version of gangster capitalism. The US is not like that.
How many countries has the U.S. Taken over and made part of the whole?
I could name the two recent ones.
What are they?
Afghanistan. Iraq. (Tried also with Ukraine.)
Afghanistan and Iraq are not part of the United States. I'm a little surprised I had to explain this as it seemed obvious.
They are better than parts. All the goodies, none of the responsibilities.
No goodies from either country are going to the U.S. and you know it. Afghanistan does offer *some* *paid for* exports to the United States but they are a tiny fraction of what comes in from other countries, even compared to other countries in the region of Afghanistan (like Turkey and India). Regarding Iraq, other than oil, most of which is promised to China, the main export is agriculture which is marketed middle eastern countries. Nice try! Now where Russia is concerned, they are annexing the Ukraine. U.S. trade for capital goods with Iraq and Afghanistan vs annexation of Ukraine. Apples and oranges and you know it. And don't insult me by asking for sources for info concerning Chinese oil contracts in Iraq.
I suggest looking up Afghan copper for starters. Then the rest of Afghanistan's mineral resources. Re. China, you really don't understand its relationship to the US; or rather, those who actually count in the US (and their EU friends). Just look at whose money it is that's getting compounded when it's "China" that appears to be making money. And bear in mind, this is real money due to how its tied to actual resources and products. It isn't toy money as used by the little people inside American borders. One piece of information you seem to be sorely missing is that of all the hydrocarbon resources the US has been murdering people to control a rather small, and declining, fraction is actually for use inside the US. Its function is global market control and through that maintaining political control of vassals and colonies. 'Oil promised to China' has never been a problem. Who gets to control its flow is. Likewise, Russian natural gas sold to the EU is not the problem; control of its flow is. That is not to mention major military bases which should (and would) only exist on own soil (were it not for the fact that Afghanistan and Iraq are new 'lesser states' of the US). As they say, once the US has gained ground somewhere it never leaves.
Uh, I should've taken your word 'trade' and scare-quoted it, too: "trade." America doesn't do trade. America giveth, America taketh ;-) Re. Russia, Ukraine is their Mexico and they're taking Texas.

re #631 Respectable? I suppose these gents were just on a camping trip? www.youtube.com/watch?v=a2e6qaUVM8Q
Re #634: How does that negate that Russia is reactive? Russia frames this--correctly, mind you--as NED funding a coup in a neighboring country where it has vital interests and whose fate is tied with Russia's in a million ways; not the least of those a large Russian-speaking population subgroup. Its response is not Soviet-irredentist. Rather one in many ways similar to American support of RoC (the usual 'a son of a bitch, but our son of bitch'). Geographic proximity allows this Russian Taiwan to be administered as well, although only reluctantly. You cast it all as Soviet irredentism. I said that would mean Russia is being proactive and that most respectable voices concur it is not. If not provoked by the coup there wouldn't be any moves on part of Russia, I believe. It has far more important business to do. In fact, the timing of this coup is likely related to other American clashes with Russia elsewhere. Somewhere in there South Stream pipeline is probably being considered as well.
A large population of Iranians live in the United States. They are American. It's time we save all the unfortunate Iranians in Iran from the threat of poverty and mistreatment. Annexation is the only way to help unfortunate relatives of United States citizens. I also heard that there are English speaking folks in Iran. It's an outrage that we allow them to live under heavy rule where their internet is restricted and sanctions threaten their health and safety!
Re #636: False analogy. Ukraine doesn't have a separate history of its own. The country you know as Russia was run out of Kiev for five centuries and Kievan Rus was only ended by Mongols. Think of its relations to Russia as that of New England to the US, with a twist. NATO can try to redraw borders according to Western interests but it cannot change history. Annexation is not what's happening. Russia has not annexed Ukraine. It has done two things: 1. rearranged Crimean peninsula administratively, 2. supported Russian separatists in two or three Ukrainian provinces. Relevant QA: a. Are these nice things to do? No. b. Are they comparable to Western behavior? Yes, just far less pernicious. Russia is geographically and culturally relevant in Ukraine. The US is not, anywhere outside of North America. c. Is there precedent? Yes, American history with Mexico. d. Do they impinge on sovereignty? Yes and no; sovereignty is quite complex. The UN decolonization procedures ongoing since the end of the Second World War set precedents and are evaluated case by case. For example, one of Israeli arguments against Palestinians is that a Palestinian nation never existed, which is true but irrelevant and should be contrasted with "Biblical" "history" claims of Jews which are plain bullshit. Historical land claims and sovereignty are not one and the same. e. Do they contest any groups' historical land claims? No, and no population displacements are expected to result. The issue is purely about political organization: who and how of rule. f. Could an integral Ukraine continue to exist? No, since a doctrinally anti-Russian group came to power through NED's coup. g. Can Ukraine be reintegrated? Yes, by Ukrainian elite acknowledging Russian relevance in their equations. Which they did until very recently. NATO and the EU sang them songs and this is the outcome. Ukraine to Russia can be Afghanistan to Iran. Iran does not intend to leave Afghanistan, ever. There is no 'exit strategy' for Iran vis-a-vis Afghanistan. However, Iran doesn't intend to administer Afghanistan either. It demands--and takes--relevance in Afghan politics in return for favorable treatment of Afghanistan and its people. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Re. Iranians in America, English speakers in Iran: Iranians in the US don't have historical land claims and have been admitted under specific conditions set in their residence permits or the Oath of Allegiance. Those conditions are legally and morally binding. The allegiances of any citizens must be to the US. If any naturalized US citizen of Iranian birth engages in tradecraft against the US they will rightfully be tried for treason. By contrast, Ukraine was carved out of historically Russian lands after the collapse of the Soviet Union and in fact Ukrainian language was not even a majority language in Ukraine until recently. Recent formation of Ukraine as a country did not in any legal way gain the allegiances of the Russians residing in newfangled borders. Compare with other former SSRs, such as Tajikistan, where Russian language never was any majority's native tongue and no locals felt allegiances to any incarnation of Russia. There are perhaps a tiny number of Iranians in Iran whose native tongue is English. All other Iranians speak other languages than English as their native tongue and have historically been subject of one or another Iranian state. Iran's annexation by the US can work out, too. I assure you if the US were to grant all Iranians equal US citizenship and take responsibility for their well-being things would be very differently than what the US actually wants from and does to its vassals and colonies. (Hint: plunder.)
Er, things would be seen very differently.
re #637 Ukraine was carved out of historically Russian lands Do some more reading on Bessarabia. This is not a "return to the Motherland" natural progression going on unless you're a Bolshevik.
Re #639: I didn't say it is, and even if it were Ukrainians could still legitimately resent it. I don't think Afghans would be at all fond of reintegration with Iran. Most of Central Asia and Caucasus wouldn't be either. Tajikistan, perhaps. For that matter, for a while--even if short--Afghans were ruling Iran so they can envision reintegration in those terms rather than the other way around. I'm not too fond of any recent--say, 1800s and onwards--nationalism movements either. By then the game had radically changed due to early mass media (printing press onwards) and revisionism has just caused compounding trouble. Pahlavis were taught a lesson about their comical oil "Persianism" the hard way. Financier Zionism and Saudi Aramco "Arabism" are next ;-) The backbones of culture--language, religion, blood--which I invokved are a matter of who is relevant where, not justification for intrusion. See QA (a) and (b). If absolute sovereignty were to be the gauge then NED and other intereferences of irrelevant, conniving parties with vested interests and deep pockets would be the first that need culling. Had the West been less of a bunch of deceptive, thieving murderers the valuable human lessons which they have misappropriated under the false rubric of "Western" values would have a better change of taking root everywhere.

There are things embedded in my brain pan that > can not be sifted out. What's your answer to "are you a Catholic?" Here's the answer I think you have given so far (paraphrasing): "I was raised in a Catholic family so I have a close understanding of Catholic tenets and can contrast them with what I learnt later in life. All for my betterment. I do not unquestioningly believe in those tenets nor do I obsessively attribute my achievements in life to either my ancestry or their beliefs." That's what I think Asimov likewise said of the extent of his Jewish character. You'd think all the talk of "Western" values would've had Jews contrast it against their wont tribalism, but no, had to use modern institutions to feed the same old cultural habits: nepotism, jingoism, and slaughter in the Levant and beyond. Worse yet, they poisoned the fountainhead of American thought. Pick any of the ideas key to American identity--individualism; entrepreneurial spirit; freedom of thought, speech, association, and enterprise--and I'll show a bunch of Jews benefitting from turning the idea on its head. That's really too much wrongdoing from such a tiny bunch, in service of such a petty cause. That's not to say Mozzies' Hawala Bank wasn't riding the back of the same ideas and perverting them.

3 Columbus churches vandalized with graffiti overnight COLUMBUS, Ind. - Columbus Police said they've never had anything like it - three churches vandalized in the same night.

Father Doug Marcotte said of what was spray painted on Saint Bartholomew's Catholic Church in Columbus overnight Saturday. Parishioners saw that, along with the word "Qur'an 3:151" on their way into mass Sunday morning. It's certainly not a warm and fuzzy verse. It talks about the infidels, their refuge being the fire, explained Father Marcotte. Specifically, that passage of the Qur'an reads: "We will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve for what they have associated with Allah of which He had not sent down [any] authority. And their refuge will be the Fire, and wretched is the residence of the wrongdoers." http://tinyurl.com/kmpjcsc ---------------------------------- a. State Department incitement b.

(Not the same Amram... hopefully.) -- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Al_Imran + -- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imran_(father_of_Maryam)#In_Islam The specific verse is verse 151. Verses 150 to 152 are associated with this: -- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Uhud#Muslim_reaction It's about a military defeat of early Arab Muslims against an invasion of what was their only city at the time (Medina) by polytheist Arabs of Mecca and being saved, presumably by god, in the nick of time from total defeat and slaughter. The common interpretation of verse 151 says the invading and victorious army changed their mind about returning for a decisive defeat of Muslims because god caused them an irrational fear. (Likely Muhammad lifting morale after an obvious Muslim defeat.) That'd be the last thing someone who's read the Qur'an would quote to threaten anyone. Least of all to threaten Christians, because the same sura contains conciliatory addresses to Jews and Christians as 'People of the Book.'

Parallel construction from Stasi 2014: MYSTERIOUS RISE OF FAKE MOBILE PHONE TOWERS http://tinyurl.com/krth2pz A group of security-conscious Americans have revealed a nationwide network of "fake" cell phone towers of unknown origin which can intercept calls, texts, and even remotely control unprotected phones. When interviewed by The Popular Science Monthly Les Goldsmith, the CEO of ESD America and manufacturer of hi-spec encrypted smartphones aimed at businessmen who regularly visit cyber-crime hotspots Russia and China, revealed some surprising findings reported by his customers. It appears a network of interceptor stations exist across America. The custom Operating System (OS) of the company's phones eliminates hundreds of security flaws in the standard Android OS, and automatically warns users when their phones are targeted by rogue base stations. By collating reports from secure phone users, at least seventeen of these mystery towers were identified in the United States, spread fairly evenly across the country. Speaking to Popular Science he said: "One of our customers took a road trip from Florida to North Carolina and he found 8 different interceptors on that trip. We even found one at South Point Casino in Las Vegas". --------------------------- PS It's no mystery to me that apps like Facebook Messenger already have this ability and people consent to them.

#695 Ukraine actually has a lot of trading potential: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economy_of_Ukraine GDP per capita is very low $7,400 however (US has $54,980, Iran has $7,207). PS Inflation in Iran is 15%?! WOW "The official poverty line in Tehran for the year ending March 20, 2008, was $9,612, while the national average poverty line was $4,932."

Re #696: Trade what for what with Ukraine? Offer what to whom? Who offers Ukraine what in return? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Iranian inflation is much higher than 15%. Dollar numbers don't make sense for Iran, though, because IRR is not freely exchanged with USD. All significant sources of USD are state-controlled and fiscal policy determines USD-IRR exchange rate. Iran is a financial island and that's one of the reasons Uncle hates it. I usually find it amusing when dime-a-dozen Jew bags run the 'Iran is isolated' line.

Re. cost of living: Iranians in general are poor but not piss poor. 'Statistical Centre of Iran' gives these figures for last Iranian year. (It's six months into the new one now.)

Re #706: Those cars have buyers; now buyers outside Iran, too. That's what matters. They aren't copied the Chinese way. They're built on tech-transferred Peugeot platforms on the understanding that the next generation of those platforms would come from local knowledge. IKCO started its deals with European and East Asian manufacturers by CKD assembly in early 1990s and boosted its revenue through a legal oligopoly--between IKCO and a few other car makers operating on the same model--in Iranian market. Essentially, a major capital leak from Iranian consumerism was pooled back in via heavily jacked-up prices of automotive products and reinvested into buying and mastering industrial fundamentals. This allowed IKCO to diversify into other sectors; e.g., TAM IKCO that provides automation, construction, and engineering services. The conglomerate business model is rather close to, but nowhere as efficient as, Norinco. Nope, I don't have any motor vehicle. It's an unnecessary cost here in Tehran. (Which people apparently don't do the maths about. They'd rather own cars than use public transport and take taxis. As it is with all costs of ownership considered even taking taxis the entire time ends up being cheaper. Not applicable in the US, of course.)

Re #711: Keep thinking. So, now you scare-quote war and it's not quite a war. What's changed since your 'Putin Nazis' comment? Would you also say American Jew-rags are lying through their teeth in framing it as a war out and out between a bellicose Russia and a "proudly independent" Ukraine? Returning to the question on #695, its purpose was to turn walkman's attention to the fact that land has value (and potential) in and of itself. More so if it's favorably situated. I was hoping you would provide that commentary which you didn't. It's a common mistake among Americans--usually projecting own jingoism--to confuse a mention of, say, the geostrategic value of Iran (the land) with a sort of national pride, at which point I get ramblings about how Honey Boo Boo will be riding spaceships next week carrying with her the star-spangled banner to Uranus.
#712 "at which point I get ramblings about how Honey Boo Boo will be riding spaceships next week carrying with her the star- spangled banner to Uranus." You mentioned something about jingoism? It's unclear how I spotted it due to the fact that I'm a nationalist, overweight idiot American who watches other idiot rednecks on television. Land has value to other countries that need to expand out of necessity. America is still big and open with low population density (density per sq mi=84). No one here is pining for land in the Ukraine or Iran. The EU is a can of sardines with less wiggling room. North America is also resource rich. "He's just not that into you."
re #712 What's changed since your 'Putin Nazis' comment? Nothing has changed. "Let's say for grins and giggles" must've went over your head. Of COURSE Ivan is supplying the arms against Kiev. How many paratrooper captures does that take to be obvious?
Re #713: Did you take a peek at the stuff on #709? A summary: The US is as well-off as it is because it controls far more than what's within its own borders. Stories about how magical "smart" devices and porn-delivery technology are indicative of change in the fundamentals of this equation are just tall tales. To indefinitely maintain its primacy the US needs to maintain the control and keep challengers for the same position down. Intersociety dynamics is essentially a negative-sum game in which in total far more resources are depleted than necessary, so that otherwise untenable gradients are sustained. For example, your blood is no bluer than a Chinese man of similar natural endowments in terms of intellect and bodily endurance. Just like him you're an insignificant, ephemeral primate walking the face of the Earth. However, your efforts are on average paying off double, triple, and even more times than what his identical or even higher efforts are. There is no natural foundation for this gradient. It is a matter of historical circumstances. A range of fortunate flukes and a small number of possibly good decisions in remote past keep paying off. Of course he isn't stupid. He sees this, he looks up history, and he tries to replicate your favorable circumstances. If not for him, then for his progeny. If he succeeds he will be a rival for you on equal or superior footing in partaking of the fast dwindling natural resources of the planet. You, of course, do not want this. So, for you to retain the gradient you will need not only to make any efforts you would regularly make but also to keep him from attaining the same as you have. In doing so you have coercion and deception as your means. Both of these cost those same resources you're competing over far more than if you and the Chinese man could've agreed on arrangements that were perceived by both parties as equitable. Neither of you will; at present, much more so you than he. Iran, Ukraine, and indeed the entire planet comprise a playing field for that negative-sum game. Is this new? Not at all. It's the long-known and played game of Empire. Many others have played it before and it has an endless succession of contenders. Only the playing field has come to encompass the globe; the players more organized and ruthless; and the relative magnitude of wins and losses significantly larger. Homo sapiens is a vicious bastard and harmony--within or without the conventional boundaries of a society--is nowhere on the horizon so the only hindrance to this game being played indefinitely is finiteness of the Earth and its resources. On a finite playing field distant adversarial foreigners eventually become neighbors with grudges. If Honey Boo Boo on her spaceship comes to pass it can and will scale out and scale up to all the vastness of the outer space, too. You can hang your hopes for your progeny's fortunes on that; or on unique inventions like those selective pathogens you dream of.

Join the resistance as a matter of national pride! "In 1951, Iran's oil industry was nationalized with near-unanimous support of Iran's parliament in a bill introduced by Mossadegh who led the nationalist party the National Front. In response, Britain instigated a worldwide boycott of Iranian oil to pressure Iran economically." We wants it, we needs it. Must have the precious. They stole it from us. Sneaky little hobbitses. Wicked, tricksy, false!
Re #728: The parallel to Iranian 1953 coup is the Chilean 1974 coup. There wasn't any measure of mass agitation. Only economic warfare and a few small mobs for photo ops. Actual coups are harder to pull these days so you get color "revolutions" and "springs." Mind you, it's oversimplification to think all of these are fake. The potential for such disturbances is there. There is always discontent and in some places there's more. Remove actual reasoning about the causes of discontent and possible cures. Mix in perception management and agitprop. Recruit disenfranchised expats and "dissidents." Get a soft "revolution."

#729 "The potential for such disturbances is there. There is always discontent and in some places there's more." The discontent is the leverage a successful coup is built on!

Democrazy, freedumb, trinkets, whores, faggots, booze, veils, NOTORIOUS, BRUTAL, CRUEL, family--AHAHAHA!--of nations, yap yap yap." Don't forget the looting enticement and the hero status. "I was THERE, and I was arrested for my resistance!" The U.S. has hardened it's stance significantly when it comes to commerce disruption (aka protest). Militarized police with experimental weapons. But there's another way to keep the masses' asses in lounge chairs. Which leads to the next question... "Why didn't the US get a soft "revolution" during Bushco, though?" Great question! I would say bread and circus having been through it. Add in some lip-service about duty and honor too.

Market movements (including consumer trends, supply disruptions and stock prices), protests, reactive government, employment data etc. The devil is always in the details but the big picture often looks similar.

Re #762: His position on faggot "marriage" is actually sane. It isn't muddled at all. The state has a share in law, in ethics, and in morality. In matters of law it should legislate minimally; in ethics it should uphold contracts; and in morality it should be meek. So, legally, outlawing faggot "marriage" is a wrong move. Ethically, it's a contract like any. Morally, it's reprehensible to some and acceptable to some. The state should not take a moral side and that means the key area where state and morals meet, public education, should be quiet on the matter. Neither promotion, nor rejection. That's a tenable libertarian position It's the liberal ass-up position of wanting to equate buttfucking to human sex in public education that's problematic. And the other problem is drop-in replacement of state for church where the state has started acting as if it can or should officiate sacraments--or force religious groups to do so--rather than record and uphold contracts. Once healthy people stop looking up to the state to "bless" their marriage with tax privileges quite a few things about the state's relationship to that social institution can be fixed.

All ever needed was for one of the vulture lawyers in service of faggots to draft legal templates for these demands. Fill in the blanks and done. The only exception would've been adoptions that are more complicated, for good reason. The faggot agenda has been focusing on equating faggot "plight" to that of enslaved niggers. The target is to have a public mores where saying buttfucking is reprehensible is seen as identical to telling a nigger to move to "back of the bus." Why would the Anglo-Jew Uncle get in bed with that? Because it provides an insurmountable fault line with sandniggers. Much like feminism and family law. Any sandniggers on the other side of the fault line--say, some random goatherder--is immediately an oppressor in this tale; so lying about, stealing from, and murdering him becomes fair game for the Anglo-Jew. And any sandnigger who comes to Uncle's side is either lacking in principles or in brains, likely both.

Politicians like Al Gore and Hollywood entertainers like Leonardo DiCaprio with no scientific background are well qualified to warn of Co2 driven, earth apocalypse via climate change. http://tinyurl.com/n3f7lps from the article: Oregon-based physicist Gordon Fulks sums it up well: CO2 is said to be responsible for global warming that is not occurring, for accelerated sea-level rise that is not occurring, for net glacial and sea ice melt that is not occurring . . . and for increasing extreme weather that is not occurring. The bullet points are interesting: *According to NASA satellites and all ground-based temperature measurements, global warming ceased in the late 1990s. This when CO2 levels have risen almost 10 percent since 1997. The post-1997 CO2 emissions represent an astonishing 30 percent of all human-related emissions since the Industrial Revolution began. That we ve seen no warming contradicts all CO2-based climate models upon which global- warming concerns are founded. *Rates of sea-level rise remain small and are even slowing, over recent decades averaging about 1 millimeter per year as measured by tide gauges and 2 to 3 mm/year as inferred from adjusted satellite data. Again, this is far less than what the alarmists suggested. *Satellites also show that a greater area of Antarctic sea ice exists now than any time since space-based measurements began in 1979. In other words, the ice caps aren t melting.   *A 2012 IPCC report concluded that there has been no significant increase in either the frequency or intensity of extreme weather events in the modern era. The NIPCC 2013 report concluded the same. Yes, Hurricane Sandy was devastating but it s not part of any new trend.

And the threat is so real that federal law enforcement officers have been placed at a heightened state of alert, and an American military base near the border has increased its security. As the Obama administration and the American public have focused their attention on ISIS in recent weeks, conservative groups and leading Republicans have issued stark warnings like those that ISIS and other extremists from Syria are planning to enter the country illegally from Mexico. But the Homeland Security Department, the F.B.I. and lawmakers who represent areas near the border say there is no truth to the warnings. ------------------------------------------- If this is real or not (false flag or actual terrorism) expect an extreme reaction from the U.S. government. When I say extreme, I mean volume 11 extreme. They will crack down on their own people. I wonder if the terrorists have collaborators here that are ready to assist and provide safe harbor.

Easy prediction: entrenched endless ground war in Iraq and Syria. The story could take some interesting twists and turns. Obama could pull a Bush and snag Iran while he's doing the globalist's bidding.
There's a subtle point people often miss: it was actually Obama who did the sanctions thing while taking orders from Kike Central. GWB either couldn't or didn't want to. I'm willing to think 'could not' but 'did not want to' is tempting, too. Under GWB Iran's economy actually about doubled in size. The Jew saw that, wanted the share he was denied, so Obama came and 'deflated' the various Iranian bubbles. Obama won't pull a Bush Jr. on Iran because that would be too good--for Iran.

#852 "Iran s role as a leading sponsor of global terrorism is well known." Examples? 1. The first category is direct military engagement. Wrong. America is not Assad's air force. The unstated mission is to *take out* Assad. Also, America protecting Iraq helps Iran? Explain how in either of these cases Iran outwits? 2. The second category includes conflicts in which America s allies are up against Iranian proxies. Hamas, Turkey and Lebanon: Iranian clients? Did anyone send the telegram? 3. direct American engagement with Iran on its nuclear program. Diplomacy between two countries (regarding defense/offense vs. national security) puts the supposed antagonist in the position of outwitting? Seriously? 4. Yet nothing has been done to crack down on the group in Turkey. Tawhid-Salam attacking Israeli embassies = Iran outwitting Obama? "COMMENTARY was founded in 1945 by the American Jewish Committee." Meh. Okay. Perspective. Obama is bad when not 100% devoted to the Israeli hard line.
See the image on #854. Sums up Jewish existence: lying, theft, and murder; emphasis on lying. With utter brazenness. No shame whatsoever. "Tawhid-Salam" as an entity was an invention of AKP's challengers in Turkish military. It was their version of 'al-Qaeda at home.' Didn't fly, though. Village turks are smarter than TV Americans. "Terror? What terror? It's no skin off my back." Turkey's relationship to Israel was forced by Uncle.

When the turn for some of these Jew murderers came they started screaming bloody murder. Pattern? When they tell you about Ukraine's anti-"semitic" fascists who inserted themselves into Gershman's "revolution" they forget to put it side by side with that almost 8 out of 10 Ukrainian Cheka were Jews. People have a historical memory. Now today, tod wants to rescue the Jew by setting the "Bolsheviks" apart. The same Clintonian tactic for rescuing Israel: out of kibbutz, into corporate. That "unless you're a Bolshevik" catchphrase isn't accidental. Wonderfully, the "capitalist" Jew is no different. The "liberal" Jew behaves identically. The "secular" Jew is all the same. Sklavenmoral is what connects them. "To know survival"--aye, tod? Where "survival" eventually translates to self-enrichment and convenience at any price, social and even personal. Sink to any depth, tell any lie, do anything; as long as it pays. When you see agitprop against people who have the wherewithal to negate their own existence if it's an existence without dignity give this thought a spin, too. Then say: Sonderkommando.

Stole the business. And even stole the name. Jaffa orange became synonymous to Israel, its brand. Entirely based on lies. Who was doing this? A newfangled, maleficently engineered society based around kibbutz. A replica of the Soviet kolkhoz with a strong martial bent. The neighboring, largely unarmed or poorly armed Palestinians were perpetual Nazis. Often even kibbutz teachers had not seen the actual Nazis. That's the lie the Jew raised children with in kibbutzim. Now, this society based on kibbutz would at least show some sort of Communist values or solidarity, you'd think. Maybe function like Yugoslavia for a while. No, the Jew did nothing but lie. Raise children in kibbutzim while Israel Corporation--that's literally its name--was dealing in Jew infiltration and corruption of American society. The Red Scare and War on Communism--a war on a concept, like 'War on Terror,' another Jew invention--and its horrific results in periphery nations--Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Iran, Chile; just a few of them--was promulgated by Dulles, who turned public attention from oil profiteering, a concrete phenomenon, to an abstract, pertual war that could not be "won" short of policing thought. In the process somehow Angleton magically erased every fact about Israel, its illegitimate existence, and its actual modus operandi from American consciousness. The Big Bad Soviet was there just as the little Soviet was supposed to be Uncle's helper (by profiteering off sales of American secrets to Soviets). At the same time, Team "A" and Team B, both dominated by the Jew were feeding Uncle self-serving disinformation on the scale of Soviet success and the contents of Soviet intentions. The Jewish Pipes family who were part of that charade have now changed jobs to feeding the American public disinformation about Muslims and Islam. Son of the "expert" Sovietologist is an "expert" Islamologist today. It's all accidental, of course. There's no trend and no criminal intent.

The conclusion, however, is far from tenable due an accumulation of mistakes and distortions: 1. There never was an Arab civilization. There existed and exist many cultures of which ethno-linguistically identified Arabs of various stock have been and are a part. 2. The assumption that a so-called 'liberal democracy' would've been desirable in the countries he lists is baseless. 3. His fascination with his own "Arab"-ness has had him ignore Iran over and over. Even though he hasn't made the common mistake of vilifying Iran he has removed it from his calculations, rendering them meaningless. 4. In an attempt at faux fairness he is placing too much blame on various Arab peoples exonerating the West in self-deprecation. 5. He holds Arab peoples and governments to standards no other people have been or can be held to. He laments lack of states being "democratic, just or a practitioner of good governance" as a cause of catastrophic failure while no others countries meet or have met such criteria and in particular there are many countries which have not failed catastrophically despite such lack. 6.

On a different note, what problems?
#912 Thank you for the piece by Elisabeth. She was quite the writer herself. Not as abstract but interesting nonetheless. Friedrich Nietzsche was operating on a plane high above most men IMO. In that I am saying he is one of the supermen. Regarding problems: Liars, ebola and what to do with the diseased. The concept of ebola (not just the danger or the physical realities) attacks my innermost feeling of security. I am deeply suspicious of ebola's creation and the timing of it's introduction. Governments know that very ebola victim is a deadly circle that overlaps other circles. The planet's population can be wiped out. Bill Gates among others have admitted that they would like to see 90% of the population destroyed to "save the planet." Are there people and organizations that would create something like ebola to kill 90% of the population? I believe so. The human populace as a whole is like that individual diseased ebola sufferer. The things we will go through are beyond devastating if things go in the wrong direction. Extending your logic, the human populace itself should be destroyed to put it out of it's misery. I disagree. I want to have a way to fight back.
What I read these days is that ebola has something of a 40-50% survival rate. Maybe take ebola to be a trial by fire; or Russian roulette, maybe? As to 'fighting back,' has Bill G. included himself and his children in the Great Culling? If he has not, you know what to do: be Bill G. or the apple of his eye.
I have a feeling that once chaos ensues, the "leaders of men" will have big targets on their backs ala French Revolution. I'm sure Bill and his precious cargo will be in the Swiss Alps with the likes of Al Gore and Zbigniew Brzezinski drinking a cup of some white girl's blood in celebration.
Why "some white girl's blood" specifically? *giggle*

Re #926: Suffice to say Indonesia's proclamation of independence was typed on a Kriegsmarine typewriter. You can ask Dan Cross about Netaji's Axis connections. Hitler and Churchill were both mass murderers of equal scale--I must emphasize that Churchill was equal or ahead of Hitler in his murderous operations--and if you look up how Churchill's life ended you won't see a much more dignified story than Hitler's. The distinction in post-WWII chronicles is that Hitler is vilified and caricaturized while Churchill is canonized. I attribute this to a concerted Anglo-Jew effort for muddling modern history. The group have made similar efforts at twisting ancient history to their purposes. The Anglo aspect is self-explanatory. Jews' role in this has in turn been a self-serving collective guilt campaign directed at the world which has become both an IDPOL muster of force and as a cover for grand theft and occasional mass murder. What is interesting about these efforts is their success relative to similar efforts of other groups for producing false narratives. The Goebels article attributes success of its precursor to mere tenacity. I often wonder if that's the case or if other factors--say, particular adeptness or lack of scruple--are also at work.
Did Churchill fart alot?
#927 "The distinction in post-WWII chronicles is that Hitler is vilified and caricaturized while Churchill is canonized. I attribute this to a concerted Anglo-Jew effort for muddling modern history. The group have made similar efforts at twisting ancient history to their purposes." I'm not going to "canonize" Churchill but I will point out the distinction between a war aggressor (Germany) and the country being attacked (England, Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, France, Denmark, Yugoslavia, Greece, Norway and Western Poland among others). If you were a person living in one of these countries during the war, you would definitely see Hitler and his merry band of murderers as evil. Churchill did not start exterminating people by race, nor did he take over Europe in a murderous conquest.
Re #928: Does Onassis count as big enough of fart? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Re #929: > Churchill did not start exterminating people by race [...] Bengalis are much more of a "race" than Jews ever was, are, or can be. And, again, "race" makes no sense. Least of all w.r.t Jews. If your understanding of "race" is that of visually distinguishable groups rather than the scientific concept of clade you must also know the set of people (falsely) called Jews are actually not visually identifiable with each other or distinguishable from various other peoples. --------------------------------------- > [...] nor did he take over Europe in a murderous conquest. Keyword: Europe. That's all that needs to be said. The countries you name most had colonies where they were doing to other people far worse than Hitler did to them. Chief among these scum and a very well-connected one in European networks was Churchill. The Anglo-Jew effort in muddling of modern history is in part responsible for hiding the history of British and Dutch colonialism: -- http://www.countercurrents.org/polya230109.htm It might interest you that Leopold II of Belgium takes the cake as the world's top mass murderer. Where's the "Yad" memorial to Congolese dead in DC? How often do you hear about Leopold? If it isn't too often you need look no further than the Jew York - Antwerp blood diamond racket for why. --------------------------------------- > If you were a person living in one of these countries during the war, > you would definitely see Hitler and his merry band of murderers as evil. False. See: Sudetenland, the Vichy, Volga Germans, Finland, Eastern Europe's numerous fascist parties. Most civilian murders of the Second World War were not committed by any sort of regimented state forces rather by local militia, vigilantes, and opportunists sympathetic to fascism. Lumpenproletariat, to sum them up. A large number of casualties were in turn attributable to practice of slavery. Except this time a few well-connected European populations were enslaved, rather than the usual target of colonized peoples. The wider theater of the Second World War was far from uniform. For every European who felt Hitler was ruining the business there were a dozen Asians or Africans who saw him as redeeming their lives from British and Dutch savagery. You hear plenty of sob stories of Japanese treatment of the Dutch in Indonesia. How many tales do you hear about Dutch treatment of Indonesians? Why is your "American" school history, seemingly written for the education of a nation independent from all these peoples, vocal about one and silent about the far worse other? I cannot fill all the void of historical knowledge for you, to be honest. Read up, perhaps? I promise you'll find the picture you have could not possibly be farther from truth.

re #947 Does Orlando count? (Mangoes not so tasty) Ansar Islamic State in the Arabian Peninsula - discuss, compare, contrast.
'Ansar' == 'helpers.' Taken from early history of Islam. After the prophet's flight to Yathrib--later named Medina[t an-Nabi], the prophet's city--'ansar' were the ones who joined him there from the locals, 'mohajiroun' were those who emigrated with him from Mecca. So, there's the logic of these namings. The black banners are mark of the Abbassid caliphate but the strong anti-Arab stance is consistent with the Umayyad who were toppled soon after instituting Arab chauvinism in their rule by the revolt led by the Iranian who took on the name Abu Muslim... Khorasani ;-) To be honest, the namings seem like someone is pulling a historical joke based on every Iranian's school history knowledge, on everyone else in the world.
Is ISIS jizyah old school (by say 150 years) or a distortion?
Jizyah vs. zakat. Pick your poison... I mean, tax model. A high level of tax enforcement is particular to modern bureaucracies and their long arms. As far as I know 19th century monarchies didn't feel a need to reference the "king's share" to tithe or jizyah/zakat. It was taken to be a soverign's right to levy taxes. Variations of Frondienst were also quite common. The concern with keeping an identity label, and acting as if a coerced change of label is a form of symbolic murder, is a modern phenomenon--and like most modern stuff a result of confusion of priorities in the face of fast changes. Of course the Illuminati enjoy playing with it. Call me an atheist, a Zarathustran, a Muslim, a Christian, a Jew, a Buddhist, or a pinko commie. Just give me the tax cuts and don't push me to do things I don't want ;-) As to ISIS, 'distortion' implies there's a verifiably authentic form. Mormonism is not a 'distortion' of Christianity, for example, since Christianity doesn't have an authentic form. No cultural artefact does, Islam included. One can judge these solely by their internal consistency. ISIS makes particular historical claims which appear to me to be inconsistent with each other and with what I know of history. Plenty of anachronisms, among other things. Say, that the Abbassid moved the core of Islam from Arabia to Mesopotamia was a mark of increased ecumenicalism and some degree of weakening of power over peripheries. They made Baghdad a cosmopolitan city. These go against the grain of an alleged return-to-roots movement like ISIS. The parallel to Abbassid Baghdad could be something like Cairo today, much less Riyadh and certainly not Mecca. What I cannot tell is whether ISIS 1. has thinkers who create these inconsistencies secure in the knowledge that nobody of practical value cares about the specifics; or 2. has very poorly read thinking heads; or 3. is a tool in the hands of creepy others who like to muddle history and pull jokes just as they work practically towards their objectives.

re #959 Consumers are loving it and investors are loathing it.
Re #961: Where do producers feature in that? How much capital loss and what effects?
re #962 Saud and UAE are producing 10% of global consumption (almost 9M barrels) a day. There are another 9% coming from the Persian Gulf. Shipping rates are sky high with rates around $23k/day for the furthest distance tankers but those rates may drop if the domestic consumption in the Persian Gulf continues to grow and turmoil continues with ISIL. Saud is building a 400k barrels/day refinery on the Red Sea and Abu Dhabi is doing same at Ruwais. Blowback in US transportation is limiting grain exports via rail due to increased oil imports. The midrange shipping rates for grain average $7.5k/day which is well below the $11k/day needed to break even. Coal shipping is also suffering thanks to the diesel and gas market rise. Cosco and other shipping companies may change their logistic patterns toward South America which is willing to pick up the slack on both grain and coal. How does all of this play out for Rouhani? Iran's crude prices are falling and inflation looms. The joker card (i.e. big question mark) will be if the nuclear negotiations produce a sustained deal with potential for construction and jobs for several decades to come.

If that happens, Cheney predicted, many other countries in the region would quickly acquire nuclear weapons, too.

"I think 9/11 will turn out to be not nearly as bad as the next mass casualty attack against the United States--which, if and when it comes, will be with something far deadlier than [with] airline tickets and box cutters." -------------------------------------------

was asked what effect the grim milestone of at least 4,000 U.S. deaths
in the five-year Iraq war might have on the nation... Noting the burden
placed on military families, the vice president said the biggest burden
is carried by President George W. Bush, who made the decision to commit

I quickly regretted voting for Obama though once it was clear that he was just another puppet with different window dressing and different marketing.
Look at my posts before 2009.
So who to support in 2016? Ted Cruz or Hillary Clinton? lol
Re #975: Yup, you had mentioned the earlier Obama vote. What usually gets me is the range of specifically physical, lowbrow insults used for Obama. I hadn't seen anything like that before him, used against any POTUS. It's fine if I name him names. I'm not a US citizen and to me all POTUS's are vile. The physical namecalling from Americans, in Obama's case, had me surprised, though.
#977 I'll let you connect the dots: for the last election I wrote in Ron Paul. #978 "What usually gets me is the range of specifically physical, lowbrow insults used for Obama. I hadn't seen anything like that before him, used against any POTUS." You have to be kidding. The media and the public painted Bush as a mental retard and a lost child. I could point to countless references. "The physical name calling from Americans, in Obama's case, had me surprised, though." Every president in my lifetime has undergone the same treatment. It would be that people are more sensitive now because Obama is half- black. Talking heads are eager to broad-brush all criticism of Obama racist. Wait until there's a woman in office.

I supported Hillary Clinton in 2008. Obama struck me as a rich surfer kid from Hawaii with a silver spoon in his mouth just like Al Gore. His work in Chicago with the upper middle class Catholics got twisted into a "he's an urban underdog" by Oprah's groupies. McCain has always been an obvious nut to me.

Re #1017: None of those are victimless crimes. Except perhaps apostasy and that, too, depends. I don't agree with beheading as a method of capital punishment, though. Also, certainly don't agree with killing people for drug smuggling while governments themselves engage in it. The whole 'war on drugs' thing is a hypocritical scam. Capital punishment for adultery is far too excessive. Apostasy as a criminal title is essentially definining a thought crime. I can understand why the crumbling belief system of a besieged society feels threatened by it, nonetheless.
#1018 In America, those attack ads are viewed as "free speech" but only for corporations as regular Joe's can't donate endlessly to them. So a guy named Finkelstein is behind such ads in Canada so they are "Jew filth?" What an overly simplistic view! Perhaps you could be persuaded to see the ads a different way: http://www.aapac.org/
#1019 "I can understand why the crumbling belief system of a besieged society feels threatened by it, nonetheless." ? Please elaborate.
Re #1020: He is Jew filth because the turn of Canadian politics brought about by these underhanded methods further serves his Jew-filthy purposes. You need to have been following that mentioned U-turn to see how it goes. Primary sign of Jew filth infiltration in a powerful country's politics is a visible and sudden urge in rulers to lick Israel's anus for no well-defined strategic or tactical reasons. The turn usually accompanies misleading rhetoric about how "Western" "values"--typically not even the actual Western values, rather hollow behavioral trappings--are awesome, the Gog and Magog are waiting on the other side of the dam, and Jew filth is the only thing that's keeping the hordes away. All false. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Re #1021: Arabs and Iranians (and various other people of the Global South) have been used on a chessboard by others like the little mindless pawns they--and general average people anywhere--are for easily 150 years. The number and strength of tugging forces involved would've torn any less ancient and coherent cultural fabric apart. It has not managed to fully do so. However, it has created islets of population without direction and without any sense of social cohesion. Against these tides, to such populations that have lost faith in their own cultural continuation, any twig looks like a good thing to hang on to. Instead of flexible core ideas of identity a variety of petty details alleviate their continuation anxiety. It's like having an assortment of measly rods and disparate servos instead of a self-adjusting moral musclo-skeletal system. In turn the enemies of these peoples, primary among them Jews, lose no chance to highlight these details for gain. It provides little mindless pawns in the West with distraction from largely similar ills of their own daily lives and further polarizes the target groups. If you suggest here, for example, that 'death for adultery' is excessive today and that the core idea behind is was ensuring fidelity which no longer applies anyhow given the size of populations and their distribution--when in history did people live in so many cities of millions or moved around so easily?--the response you get is that _because_ it is highlighted by the enemies there must be some inherent value to that penalty which is iring the enemies and that makes it worth applying again. The House of Saud or some of powerful Iranian clerics may have these ideologies but the reason they do is how the body of the society responds favorably to these and perceives the ideologues as furthering social good. Without the ado and the manipulation reformers would have a much easier time garnering an attentive populace. Back when Jefferson wrote of 'meanness and hypocrisy' his plea to reform or constrain New England's zealots was not hampered by hordes of bought-and-paid internal traitors; his physical defenses were cocooned between two oceans; his intentions were not smeared by lying and self-serving expat attack dogs kept on leash by sworn enemies of the American populace; irrelevant bullshit and consumer temptation did not take a split second to reach all his audience. He had it easy. Even his adversaries were more human and had a more introspective, skeptically-qualified view of their fighting, its necessity, and its purposes. Compared to the average American today even Cecil Rhodes was a fine chap. Maybe... particularly Cecil Rhodes.

Re #1023: No idea what that means.
#1022 Thank you for the well thought out response. I had to read it a couple times to figure out what you were getting at. The Jefferson quote actually put it in perspective. Jefferson's call for religious freedom was not met with enemies because for the vast majority, the appeal of the "new world" (tell that to the Native Americans!) *was* religious freedom. There was no ACLU, no hordes of secular and atheist shoppers/godless college professors. The perspective for most was much much different because of the average person's way of life. Primary means of transportation was walking and horse. People had to kill an animal or forage for grains to eat. No running water or toilets. Hardships make the soul humble and because of this I believe is where the appeal of religion and religious freedom is rooted from. With all that in mind I can see why adultery would be met with the response. I do not have the perspective or life experience to agree but I do understand.

Where is contemporary Iran commenting?
Plenty on FB and the like. In English, too. Better yet, learn Persian, other Iranian languages, and Arabic. There's plenty to read. You don't expect Iranians to comment only in your language, do you? For an Iranian sort of "social network" start here: -- http://cloob.com/ For news and discussion: -- http://www.alef.ir/ -- http://www.tabnak.ir/ -- http://www.sharghdaily.ir/ -- http://www.etemaad.ir/ (Tod's perception of how speech works in the Islamic Republc often cracks me up.) Persian-speaking blogosphere is rife with comments, too. I'm often surprised by how nonchalantly Iranians handle the American venom spat at them. I myself don't have that manner of generosity and patience. In the meantime, learning Mandarin and Russian would be nice, too.
"You don't expect Iranians to comment only in your language, do you?" Absolutely not. My great grandparents did not speak english when they came to this country. Their children picked up english on the streets during the great depression. We all have to do what he have to. From what I can tell, most people who choose to be bilingual do so out of a need to relate to their ancestry. Others do so for work. I would not really gain much by learning any language other than German or Spanish for engineering. I do not plan to move so for right now I'm okay. I have gone through some Rosetta Stone disks for German. It was interesting and I will eventually go through them all. My dad is half-German so my last name is Germanic. In the past I worked for a German company (8 years). I regretted not knowing their language. It would have helped my career and still would because so many high paying engineering jobs in Michigan are with German companies.

At what?
More Jew rag propaganda? I thought Iran was more progressive than this. "Iran: Motorcycle Acid Gangs 'Terrorising Women' who Break Islamic Dress Code" Demonstrators have gathered outside government buildings in Isfahan and Tehran, in protest at the recent spate of acid attacks on women in Iran. Security forces reportedly tried to disperse the demonstration at the Iranian parliament building in Isfahan, calling it a "political" gathering. In the past two weeks, a number of women have had sulphuric acid thrown on their face and bodies by a group of motorcyclists. It is believed the motive of the attacks was to target women who were not wearing the Islamic dress code in public places. At least a dozen women have been attacked with acid in the city of Isfahan while at least four women were victims of similar attacks in the Iranian capital of Tehran. One of the women was reportedly warned by an anonymous text message that she would be have acid thrown at her if she did not cover up properly. The woman was identified only by the name Haniyeh. http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/iran-motorcycle-acid-gangs-terrrorising- women-who-break-islamic-dress-code-1471256
#1037 At the farce. It sickens me.
Re #1038:
Nope, not propaganda. Crimes have nothing to do with "progressivism." Iran
is not more or less "progressive" than anything.
Acid attacks happen in Iran, rarely, and largely out of personal motivations.
Jilted suitors and revenge being the most common ones. Think Lisa Nowak. They
happen on a daily basis in Pakistan and India. In Iran they are far less
common than being killed (lawfully or unlawfully) by the police in the US,
by a factor of perhaps 1 to 100.
The response is indeed orchestrated by Jew rags and consists of these
elements:
1. premature identification of perpetrator ("must be religious
conservatives"),
2. false attribution of motivation ("must be due to how they were dressed and
offended religious sensibilities"),
3. false depiction of social depth ("must be the culture"),
4. public hysteria ("RAAAAAPE!").
---------------------------------------
Now for the facts:
1. Acid attacks against women--women only, because that's what the Western
handlers of Iranian "reforms" have conditioned their audience on--is a chronic
topic in Iranian "reformist" media, only in times there's a "reformist"
president is in power. Under the previous "reformist" administration, Khatami
(1997 - 2005), this exact media parade was conducted.
2. One of the victims in the recent cases was a chador-clad woman. Chador is
that full-length square of cloth they wrap around them and you're told to be
scared of because it's a great place to hide a Kalash. I'll let you infer.
3. A published study [A] of 'acid burn violence in Iran' over a six-year
period (2004 - 2010) found 59 victims presented at an advanced burn treatment
hospital, of whom 51% were male and 49% female. I'll let you infer.
4. The acid attack motif has been amply used by certain people [B] to slander
Iran's 1979 revolution. My parents were there so I know a bit or two about
who is lying. I can inform you that he is a liar. Take of it what you will.
5. Any permanent physical injury is covered in Iran's penal code--backed by
evil evil Shari'a Taqiyya Kitman Burqa Pedophile Terror--under 'qisas'
(retaliation in kind). A victim of acid attack can request the state to cause
the same harm to the perpetrator; or they can forgive the perpetraor. Both
qisas and forgiveness have occurred in past criminal cases. However, bleeding
hearts pointed out the image of the state gouging the eyes of a perpetrator
out is not to the liking of the Western anuses they like to lick. So in a
rather publicized case a victim was pressured, by "human rights" activists,
to forgive, which she did. In response, the Islamic Republic passed a separate
law for acid attacks making them a state-decreed capital offense separate from
application of qisas, removing the victim's choice to forgive.
---------------------------------------
[A] http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3293230/
[B] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Afshin_Molavi
P.S. The numbers on #1038 are also false.
"the Islamic Republic passed a separate law for acid attacks making them a state-decreed capital offense separate from application of qisas, removing the victim's choice to forgive." Forgiveness is free and deterrents are somewhat useful. Can't argue with the republic here.
On a side note, I would find it difficult to drive a motorcycle and throw acid at the same time. I'm not coordinated enough to shift gears and pull in the clutch and accelerate while throwing acid. That's talent!
Qisas is a far more reasonable mechanism for responding to violent crime than fixed punishments meted out by the state. The choice is given to those truly grieved and the punishment is to be as close to the crime as possible. The Islamic Republic's decision to supplement qisas with a fixed punishment is a PR response to "human rights" asslickers. People who oppose this on principle are fools or charlatans. Have a dose of Shari'a: -- http://quran.com/16/123-128 Must be noted I don't have the grace or forgiveness of Mozzies and American niggers. Had my atheist fascist notions been current among either group today there would not be a square inch of the Jew-SA unraked.
'This' in 'oppose this' being retaliation in kind for violent crime.

Ignorance, utter stupidity, and sheer psychopathic malice. What a grand cocktail have Jews mixed. No wonder they get to throw their weight around. How idiotic these Iranians who play into those filthy hands.
#1046 You are condemning protesters who are outraged by crime? Let's just say that the issue is small and they are overreacting. Does that mean the protesters are really bad people or "idiotic?" PS I was denied access to the comments. "Sorry, we are having trouble connecting right now. Please try again."
Re #1047: The issue is not that they react; rather how they react. Correct reaction: they should work harder, demand and give out fewer bribes, blunt their greed, delay their gratification, make a more prosperous country with better education and more humane public atmosphere, and raise their children well so in the future there will be fewer perpetrators. These types also "protest" low wages for labor. Then when they hire a day laborer to do a job at their home they do all they can to cut the fellow's pay. My "protest" to low wage is to pay any laborer I hire more than he expects, and then some if he does a good job. Let him negotiate with the next one knowing his work is worth more. Protest? Whom are they protesting at? What are their demands? What can be changed about this matter? Who can enact such changes? What are the photo ops for? What response does it attract from the Western gallery of psychopaths, charlatans, and fools at a critical juncture of their country's history? Why is there a hysteria only when "social media" tells them "dozens of women" have been attacked? Where are these ignorant fools when sly economic and political tweaks are slipped into their country's culture, economy, and governance? (Answer to last question: they're idly scratching their butts at those times, watching Beyonce's latest. I'm not exaggerating.) Reality check: 4 women; more men are subject to this type of attack than women, perennially; the number and importance of these attacks pale against other instances of violent crime in Iran, such as armed robbery; Iran was and remains (until these idiots finally get their ways) one of world's safe countries with a low rate of violent crime _despite_ a growing culture of shamelessness, daylight thuggery, and insatiable greed--all driven by imperatives of neoliberal global expansion--among not-so-distant relatives of these same fools. The feeble-minded tools who today demand "strong government response to violence" will tomorrow be driven by the same CIA-run "social media" to protest the hanging of a violent criminal because--of course!--little bobo has no fault. "The society made him so." If you want an analogue these idiots are the soda-tax "liberals" of Iran. In case of the US soda-tax "liberals" are of much less import but the Iranian ones are essential to Western PR. That's why they're wagged every so often. (Sometimes I wonder if there's any sense to caring about a nation that doesn't think, much less care, about itself. It's kind of like having co-dependence on a drug addict.)

"Sometimes I wonder if there's any sense to caring about a nation that doesn't think, much less care, about itself. It's kind of like having co-dependence on a drug addict." FWIW I feel like this too. The irony is (at least for myself) the lefties who take on leftist causes are usually most likely to be the most drastically effected when their social cause of the moment turns into government overreach via taxes and brute force. #1051 The only thing I'm irritated about after reading half (that was all I could take) of that editorial: making every American politician blindly swear allegiance to Israeli causes. When I swear allegiance I first ask myself if the relationship is mutually beneficial. Is it for America? Is it for the politician? What have you done for me baby? WHY do I have to buy birthday presents for my brother's kids when he buys none for my kid? He doesn't even show up to the party!?
Um, Jews vote, pay, and pull strings for Izzy. That's where their loyalty is. Politicians want votes, money, and manipulation to get into or stay in power. Jews are extremely overrepresented in the US, in every respect, so politicians know which hands they have to kiss. It is beneficial for the politicians involved. That's the "symbiosis" of Izzy and America. All other land patches of Middle East are similarly, possibly more, useful as imperial footholds as far America is concerned. That particular patch is colonized by an overrepresented disloyal minority that change American politics from within.
"Jews make up 2.2 percent of the American population, a percentage that has held steady for the past two decades. The survey estimates there are 5.3 million Jewish adults as well as 1.3 million children being raised at least partly Jewish. Poll Shows Major Shift in Identity of U.S. Jews - NYTimes.com www.nytimes.com/.../us/poll-shows-major-shift-in-ide...The New York Times" 2.2%. Pandering to 2.2% is quite foolish IMO. Not enough gravy to cover even part of the potatoes.
1. An awful lot of money,
2. mostly ill-gained,
3. is in a tiny number of hands,
4. disproportionately those of Jews,
5. at an even larger disproportion in the Jew-SA.

Did I mention cryptology and domination or infiltration of intelligence/security apparatus for a considerable period of time mean you can blackmail and/or bribe probably any politician? Or that high-level involvement with "defense" industries of the West means a whisper from you could be worth a few milllion votes? With a population of 8 million Izzy sold 773 million USD of weapons in 2013 (while needing to be bankrolled at American expense to the tune of 500 million in just one "war" in 2014?!). By comparison, Russia sold 8283 million USD with a population of 143 million. That is, per capita Izzy sells somewhat less than twice Russia's per capita sales in weapons; and Russia is the world's top exporter of arms by dollar value. The US provided at least 2 billion USD of military aid to Izzy in the same year...

Hey tod, check Iran news. See how what Khamenei months ago said came true? "Once the nuclear clamor dies down they will be moving on to the governance of this country." Opinions? Whose script was this from? Who benefts from continued provocation of Iran and who controls the media?
Are the acid attacks on improperly veiled women part of that government control or a diversion? I would say the media is controlled from within since the propaganda machine to divert attention from the foreign policy aspects seems to be working.
Re #1063: There's no such thing as 'acid attacks on improperly veiled women.' Been discussed here. Non-existent. False. The spinning is occurring elsewhere: -- https://twitter.com/Irpoliticalpris/status/522093783463120896 Those are MEK. Who enables MEK? Is the IRI response to any move from or associated with MEK fully understood or not?

Re #1065: False news. You get your news from all the wrong places. That's exactly what I asked of you: why are these lies being spread? 1. Negative rape kit. 2. She alleges attempted rape. No evidence of rape exists. 3. Prosecution included evidence that she had purchased the instrument of murder--a large kitchen knife--two days prior and texted a friend three days prior about the intent to murder. The knife did not belong anywhere in or around the scene of crime. 4. The story given by Amnesty and HRW is simply impossible in Iranian context. You don't have 19-year-old girls working as indepedent interior designers, meeting clients in cafes no less. The most likely course of events is that she was a prostitute who decided to murder her client. 5. The victim was stabbed multiple times the back while she claims self-defense. 6. Are you insane? What benefit would it have to the state to punish a victim? This case had already been festering for 7 years. So, back to the question: why are these lies being spread in chorus?
Why do you not have 19 year old girls working as independent interior designers?
re #1067 They are working as prostitutes - that's why! :)
Re #1067: The social structure doesn't permit such thing. Younger men and women tend to need a much higher amount of rapport to be able to work independently. The usual course of a youth's life goes through either university and a 4-year degree through which they both age and attain a piece of paper seen as proof of their relevance (credentialist mores), or through a number of low-status jobs working for someone else well into their 30's. Exceptions to this are rare and of those exceptions the absolute majority are nurtured by family. You won't see any 19-year-olds in this country running a freelance business in cities. Particularly not any women. If it's a man he could be running a very low-status sort of such, doing unskilled or semi-skilled manual labor. If you see a very "independent"-spirited working woman of such age around here you can safely bet you've found yourself the enterprising young prostitute. There is also the economic structure hindering such thing. Labor is divided between a large, ineffective informal economy (which mostly evades tax) and a bloated, inefficient formal economy. The informal economy is mostly family-run and involves hereditary agricultural or husbandry work or mercantile works (which is a nice way to say they're opportunistic buyers and sellers). Both require long periods of "apprenticeship"--essentially informal indentured servitude, within a traditional family or clan-type strcuture--to attain the means and room in the market to work. The formal economy is mainly state-run or tied to rent seekers, is highly credentialist, and has a large pool of applicants with 4-year or higher degrees to choose from. A 4-year degree puts the applicant at 22 or higher when starting work. There's no clean, non-shady launchpad job to make a young person indepedendent or at least less needy while they get ready for a professional job. The (extended) family is that launchpad, always. There's no 'working retail' or 'working as a waiter/waitress/"barista".' The equivalent of 'working retail' in terms of pay is tough, masculine labor in an extremely sleazy informal mercantile sector. Recently the option is open to females in that status of doing hospitability jobs. Those are far from being seen (and compensated) as "real jobs" and far from being common either. Not that this has any bearing on the other facts of this case. Personal trivia: the current chairman of society of earthquake engineering in a Scandinavian country is a man my mother helped support through that 4-year supportless phase of youth, being his aunt. An example of how that works here. A very common pattern of support coming from parents and if they fail to do so from family beyond them, seen as a duty. If you don't have the (extended) family you're very much screwed.
Er, hospitality job.
#1069 Interesting portrait of work life. We can see much of what you described (apprenticeship with families) among immigrant groups in America. It is a superior system IMO because it's mutually beneficial to the person working their way up in the world and the family that is helping. That type of arrangement existed with the early colonists here. Families working together in farms and other enterprises (country store, blacksmith shop, textiles, etc.) Neighbors helping raise and burn barns and so on. It was after WWII when industrialization and consumerism fully took hold and the focus on the individual aka individualism became the mantra. What happens to the interior designers once they reach an age where their service is not desirable or appealing?

Did North America produce whores in droves as it transitioned to modernity? In this specific case, did you notice the traitorous whore in question is actually an upper middle class woman whose rent-seeking family "fled" (read: left of their own volition) the country with considerable sums gleaned from corruption under pre-revolution governments to live in luxury abroad? My personal hypothesis involves easy oil money allowing the country to afford 80 years of autocracy on part of the elite; rent seeking and graft on part of upper and middle classes; undue expectations for making it big quick and corresponding small-scale corruption on part of the up-and-coming lower classes. I think oil has been a plague for Iran. (If unclear, I didn't use whore in the sexual sense. I have a wee bit of sympathy for people who sell their bodies out of necessity, or even out of plain greed. It's a sort of honest work. More respectable than financial work in which I engage at times.)
A brief return to the question tod evaded: why are lies being spread about Iran? Who funds the lying? What are the motives?
re #1079 A brief return to the question tod evaded: why are lies being spread about Iran? Who funds the lying? What are the motives? You answered that in 1078: "I think oil has been a plague for Iran." I would expand on that: Oil has been a plague to mankind. I lectured my son at length this weekend about the evils of oil. I should like to live to see the day oil is irrelevant to world affairs. I realize you'd like to hear me blame Jews for Iran's troubles which can be done but it simplifies things too easily. Iran has all sorts of enemies and issues does it not.
Re #1080: True truths are not complete, revealing truths. Generalities are cheap. Specific mechanisms are at work which make one thing lead to another and some of those mechanisms are known. I named a few and hoped you would in honesty name a few more. Oh well. Oil certainly is not the only cause and even oil as a cause has nuances. For example, Iran's oil is not what it's cracked up to be. It's a fast dwindling resource with an underfunded exploitation industry that is quite likely to go bankrupt in near future. And, of course, Iran has many enemies and problems. Everybody and everything has many enemies and problems. One part of the task of understanding is enumerating and ordering these. Which is more damaging and which is less. Not to mention, people's objectives in such evaluations vary. Someone may be intent on inflicting more damage while someone else may want to prevent, mend, and improve. Regardless, the questions were quite specific. Someone is spreading falsities to paint Iran negatively for problems it does not have (versus all the problems it does have, many of those mirroring the problems of other countries, which take libraries to explain and understand). This is done on purpose and in an orchestrated manner. No doubt about that. So the question was of who and why.

In 1917, Congressman Oscar Calloway documented in the official

the U.S. media for the sole purpose of exploiting and controlling it.
Morgan hired twelve of the top news managers to help him determine the
most influential newspapers in America. The idea was to find the primary
key news institutions that other news outlets looked to and were thus
influenced by. (This is documented in the official U.S. Record, volume
54, dated February 9, 1917.)

Re #1086: Nice links. Have mine: -- http://www.historyisaweapon.com/
#1085 I'm the one who said it is a character flaw (regarding Henry Ford). I might add the word "dangerous" between character and flaw. To your question about bribes, blackmail, etc. it is almost impossible to know without admissions. We can only guess. Guessing and broad- brushing. Fruitless. Some of the Jew connections you make I have no arguments for. There certainly are connections. There are many powerful Jews. But adding intent or grand schemes is a stretch IMO unless there is evidence and even then it's not a Jewish thing - it's an evil schemer at play.
Re #1088: I recall that you did. I would want its rejection from tod, not from you ;-) I think the existence and behavior of Israel is more than enough evidence. Importantly, Iran does not have and has never had any irreconcilable differences with the West and with the US in particular other than over Israel. USG has known quite well all along that it could run its Imperial business through IRI officials all the same. The fact that for three decades Iran has been portrayed as a no-no of American foreign policy makes no sense without the other fact that Iran will never recognize Israel and that Iran's ascendance will cut Israel's lifeblood off quite fast. It's beyond bizarre that Iran would be in the position that Israel should be. It's Israel that has 1. stolen and diverted nuclear material; 2. misled highest US officials about its nuclear activities; 3. enlisted services of the US and France against their NPT obligations; 4. developed nuclear weapons; 5. instated an apartheid regime; 6. murdered thousands of non-combatants; 7. invaded several countries, unprovoked multiple times; 8. taken overt pride in wetwork on many countries' soil; 9. disregarded more UNSC and UNGA resolutions than any other country. Where is the NATO bombing of Israel? It makes no sense at all to not only not have one but also for NATO countries to protect and further supply Israel at their own expense with no prospect of reimbursement. Tod is going to interject here with House of Saud or, more recently, AKP as other movers and shakers behind the Iran fiasco. I personally think he knows quite well the opinion of US establishment of these two. They're seen as clownish clients, not movers. Israel is the one that US politicians--POTUS, senators, congresspersons, all the way down to city mayors--try to prove their ass-kissing credentials to. It's on behalf of Israel that a large fraction of US population deliver delirious sermons. It's Israel that most Europeans greatly resent but their supposed "democratic" representations act servile towards. The whole spectacle is grotesque. None of this makes sense without the assumption that Jews have special levers controlling all these governments.
re 1089 It might be simpler than Jews having special levers. Perhaps it is overt prejudice against non-Judeo Christians by the USA and Israel. Unless there is more positive portrayal on the silver screen and television for Muslims then I don't see the simpleton prejudices going away. FOX News is simply an outlet for racists and bigots. Americans thrive on the "us versus them" mentality. http://www.gallup.com/poll/125312/religious-prejudice-stronger-against-musl ims .aspx Very few Americans are going to listen to history and logic to build the case for accepting its prejudice against other religions. There has to be some Muslim super heroes and some Muslim politicians and some Muslim actors who are the best and transcend the status quo. Until then, Jews are simply 1/2 Christians in the eyes of most Americans. Muslims are lucky to be 15% American in the eyes of American bigots.
Re #1090: I don't buy that. Ignorance in itself doesn't produce negative prejudice. Name the 'Nacirema' people to the average American and they won't have any particular reaction. The negative prejudice was created and fostered on purpose so as to produce the circular logic of intractability. It goes like this: > A: Why do you say Iran is Chaotic Evil? > > B: Because Iran did X. > > A: X is well explained by facts Y1, ..., Yn. > > B: Iran didn't do it because of those. > > A: Why not? > > B: Because Iran is Chaotic Evil. The sentiments you portray were produced on purpose among Americans, by media, on the orders of someone(s). You know better than I do 'simpleton prejudice' is not driving the gears inside the Beltway; nor any of the workings in the halls of Western powers. A combination of interests and plans require cover stories. For the cover stories to seem plausible a narrative is created. The narrative, which you just cited, is not spontaneous. So, questions are: 1. What plans? 2. What objectives? 3. Whose objectives? 4. At what costs? 5. At whose expense? 6. Is (5) paying (4) the same as (3)? 7. If 'no' to (6), how come?
re #1091 The sentiments you portray were produced on purpose among Americans, by media, on the orders of someone(s). I grew up with walkman in Detroit. Prejudice and ignorance are simply what people carry with them against the minorities who "talk funny" and don't "do church." If there is a Jew conspiracy to make people bigots rather than simply a buttload of bigots who make it profitable to perpetrate the ignorance then WHY? What is to be gained? The orders to the media to perpetrate the lies are a vicous circle. They give the viewers what they're willing to watch and the advertisers pay for the ratings to stick their crummy product commercials in between. See, I think you and I have the same question but approach it differently based on our assumptions.
Re #1092:
> If there is a Jew conspiracy to make people bigots rather than simply a

> then WHY? What is to be gained?
I wouldn't say what you started the sentence with is the case. People anywhere
are susceptible to being misled. Maybe many are even happy to get a simple
color-me version of events that they can judge easily. So the potential for
such outcomes is there, as you say. I don't argue against that.
The real curiosity is _who_ this potential is used for or against. The pattern
is that this potential is used in the West for the West--which is
understandable, everyone is self-serving--and in service of Jews. There are
grey targets like India or China where people's capacity to buy simple stories
is not heavily used. In the past 'Red' China was a target for known and
unknown reasons. This has been toned down to a great degree with occasional
flare-ups depending on security and economical situation. Some would say if
not for involvement of Western Big Capital with China it still would have to
be painted 'red.'
And for some decades now there are other 'red' targets: Iran and specific Arab
groups.
Again, Israel is a minuscule country. It has a troublesome existence (and
dubitable future) that no one in their right mind would try to justify, much
less laud. To go against all reason and do so requires strong incentives.
These incentives are not in Israel's profitability to the West at large. I
think it's been quite clear that Israel is a liability and no gain.
The Jew conspiracy is in selling to the public a liability as a source of gain
and doing so to such degree that US politicians from the top to the bottom
dare not speak against it in public. The visible courtesy extended to Jews
in the West is itself a major curiosity. Before you go again attributing this
to "Judeo-Christian" identity remember that Jews were the misfits of the West
until quite recently and the "Judeo-Christian" amalgamation is very much an
Anglo-American thing. The rebranding must have been on purpose. Meanwhile,
in Continental Europe such rebranding could not and has not taken place. Of
utmost importance is that the deference of politicians is to pillars of power
(wealth, violence, rhetoric), not to shared identity.
What is to be gained? Existence and continuation of Israel. If the 1:3 dual
citizens of Israel are any indicator Jews very much dig it and have no regard
for the actual owners of the place. They are neither repentant for the past
nor conciliatory about present affairs and they believe subversion of the
West's Imperial instruments to serve their pet project is a Good Thing.
Importantly, and this may serve Dan Cross' brand of ignorance a bit, there
are differences between:
1. colonialism (of which the global, long-distance form has been perpetrated
only by Europe),
2. neocolonialism (which does not involve intended population displacements),
3. imperialism (which is the oldest variant of meddling with
self-determination and, at smaller geographic ranges, indistinguishable from
what is called national rule).
The West has largely given up on colonialism. Imperialism in turn can be seen
as a usual game of rulers-and-ruled where the Empire, even with (or perhaps
because of) its global reach, can be forced to take some responsibility like
any sovereign. These two trends make neocolonialism more tolerable, perhaps
even desirable in some regions. Again, the comparison can be made with any
sovereign.
Jews' subversion of the Empire clearly goes against both of these trends. It
uses the harshest instruments of a neocolonial Empire to hold together an
oldschool colony _and_ subverts the Empire's sense of responsibility in ways
that cannot be justified except by pointing a damning finger at Jews.
This lack of justification is the crux of what attracts the ire of quite a
few people around the world against the Empire.

Sure thing. Once the seeds are planted they grow. That's why the initial
choice of whom and how to demonize is crucial. Once the memes are out they
easily draw material from the mis/disinformation environment and replicate
on their own.
However, as I already wrote, the issue is not the public's notions. The
public's notions are a symptom of the elite's will. When I see the negative
propaganda I don't lament that someone will think negatively of Iran. I think
instead that a tiny number of someones ("leadership") are running a plan
against Iran and have to give the public a cover story. The questions all
regard those movers and shakers, not the misled public.

While dissatisfaction with status quo is certainly the gateway to a liberated mind it is not also the path to such liberation. In fact, a generalized disaffection is one of the most powerful weapons in the arsenal of fascist opinion leaders. As a fascist, I would know ;-) Regarding [American] libertarianism I believe similar criticism applies. In particular there's a utopian sentiment common among believers about the practical outcomes of libertarian ideologies coupled with a tendency to brush aside negatives that can easily be reasoned for from the same premises. There's this sense that "if only this and that were fixed the world would become a great place [or the best place it can be]" and that's lethal. Underlying it all there's the idea that every problem can be solved and every solution will look simple. On Agora item #7, post #787 you can see that type of sloppy analysis at work.

Re #1111: > What is more dangerous than a malcontent? A malcontent is not above being a mindless fool solely thanks to their disaffection. That was my point.

(With the caveat that any honest search will most likely yield more questions.) Bit of microhistory here. You often see these days the beard-fear among Western elites. Not one appears in public with so much as a stubble. A beard is a code of "backwardness." Even our self-professedly "enlightened" resident thug here once couldn't hold his tongue against slander of appearances and addressed me as a follower of 'bearded leaders.' Guess who introduced the babyface code of "civilization" to the West and what it meant to them. (I'll let you guess.) The babyface code was there to signal discontent with all-bearded leaders of traditional Europe. Mighty good did that discontent do, did it not? See: Second World War. Other bunches of thugs under babyface code run amok these days: > There is Ali Shah Mousovi, a pediatrician who says he returned to > Afghanistan in 2003, following years of exile in Iran, to open a medical > clinic and rebuild his country. Soon after his return, American soldiers > broke down his door, accused him of associating with the Taliban and > took him to the Bagram Air Base.

Many of these thugs have gone back home as "veterans," full of discontent because Rome isn't paying them the promised loot. Their discontent or the discontent of criminal nigger gangs is no mark of distinction. It confers no liberty of mind and makes them all the more dangerous. So, unless you're like me and love to see a big fire on the horizon, hold your horses on praise of generalized disaffection. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > None of the great men in history just accepted things around them or > what they were told.

> Ralph Nader on Clinton vs Rand in 2016 and Libertarianism -- http://wearechange.org/ralph-nader-clinton-vs-rand-2016-libertarianism/
#1114 Ralph Nader is a very smart man and I agree with everything he said in that clip. Rand Paul is a disappointment. He is not the great man his dad is. At best he's the lite version. At worst he's turning into a mainline (_not_ neocon) Republican. As a citizen, I would support him over neocons like Jeb Bush (who is rumored to run). Hillary and Jeb are frightening and dangerous. Rand is being the lady who unbuttons the top 3 on her blouse to make the sale. He's is not going to put out, he just wants to be sexy enough to win people over and put the turkey on the table. Not exactly noble but in the end it does the job. The takeaway for me that it's too bad people like Rand Paul and Ralph Nader aren't taken seriously by people. The corporatist (Nader's word) media is obviously going to make non-establishment threats to be racists, kooks, and goofs. Average Mike buys it when Conan and Stewart make the joke. Keep the Oligarchy going and the stocks at their artificial high. Rand is smart enough to know that being the libertarian constitutionalist is great but not enough to break on through to the the big desk.
Re #1115: Whatever keeps Rand Paul from being elected on his (alleged) principles will keep him from acting on those principles once in office. No?
#1116 See: Barack Obama His campaign placed him on far left. In office he's right of Reagan. I highly doubt Rand would act on the mainline Republican issues. That's why people in his own party have been working against him and his father for years.
Re #1117: Obama claimed he would seriously balance the establishment which he did much less than expected of him. Left and right are really irrelevant these days. You have hardcore pro-establishment and less hardcore pro-establishment. Obama is the latter. Rand Paul's (alleged) principles are straightly anti-establishment. There is no way he can get elected by appearing hardcore pro-establishment but when in office act anti-establishment any more than Obama did. Due to the perception of many of his (alleged) principles the disappointment factor would be no less than with Obama. Except perhaps in that you cannot much further disappoint already disappointed groups.

Re #1122: Establishment stance.
More re. #1122: To be clear, it's actually dubious that that is the stance itself. It's essentially an indoctrination manual for lower ranks. It does showcase the establishment's intentions, though, if in a warped way.
re #1124 It's a comic book with heroes and villains dressed up as a world narrative. Out of context, it's hard to understand that the politics were unknown to most Americans. Condoleeza Rice was quick to explain things and very few in the room understood nor were willing to challenge the stance suggested (and followed.) 9/11 was so odd for America that most might have well been Aztecs meeting Hernan Cortes for the first time. And that can be applied in both directions, I suppose.
Re #1125: You keep insisting on 'isolated instance' and 'chaotic-but-unfortunate development' positions. I emphatically disagree. I see carefully planned malevolence. On that note, every charge of malevolence the Soviets brought against Americans the latter needed less than 25 years to prove to have been the case. Recent declassifications and more comprehensive chronicling of the past century also further substantiate that honest mistakes have been less the case than knowing malfeasance. Specific to the document, the "comic book" in question, the "spontaneous" "terrorism expert" business, and attendant outlets have been and continue to be used extensively and deliberately to indoctrinate with less than a grain of truth in the entire paradigm. What does that indicate about the intentions of the establishment? If Germany kept a remorseful version of its 20th century history out of its basic education the way Japan keeps most of Meiji and Shouwa out or the US keeps most of its relevant history out what would you conclude about the balance of power in postwar Germany? Who would you think were truly in power? Vital note: I used 'balance of power' with no implications of sincerity or truthfulness on part of the power consensus. Realistically, Germany has to (and is) do(ing) a complete revision of the victors' version of history taught to the masses of its new generations. The few more curious ones were and are enriching their historical knowledge anyhow.
The less sophisticated the readers are, the easier the comic book is to believe - especially with mainstream media backing much of it up point for point. It's a cohesive narrative.

A) A solution looking for a problem: "We have these Joint Terrorism Task Forces everywhere, and there s so many of these antiterrorism thrusts in our bureaucracy. There s so much more going on." B) What changed? Does Jundallah not exist to attack Iran's government alone?" But in its early years, the group received little attention in Washington. And Mr. McHale s relationship with the group did not raise concerns, former officials say. In part, they say, that was because the United States did not yet consider Jundallah a terrorist organization and it had stated no intention to attack the West." C) The meat and potatoes. No one knows anything. Yet, McHale had a budget, traveled, filed reports "circulated widely" and communicated his progress to officials. " But though the government now says Mr. McHale worked as a single operator, there are indications that senior officials knew of and approved of the relationship he developed with Jundallah." D) Our intelligence agencies are very, very good at finding perfect patsies. A port authority worker getting sent for intelligence missions in hostile war areas? Totally normal! And what a perfect guy to set up as the go-it- alone maverick. They just could not keep him in line!

No connection. Article on #1171 makes a defensible point. It's "az-Zawahiri" that should be suspected for being a CIA plant for disinforming Americans.
#1175 Right. What I was saying is that the U.S. may find the desired outcome of #1171 as undesirable and provoke Arab Spring/Winter/? to destabilize starting with Ayman al-Zawahiri (that's how the media spells it here).

The key defensible point in the article is exactly that institionalized Islam
would hoist the likes of Haqqanis by their own petard. It would rapidly
separate Saudi-IA plants from mere hotheads. Give a hothead a village to
feed--soon he'll either be delivered of his folly by common sense or he'll
have his head on a pike by the same villagers who would listen to his sermons
while he was only a priest on a pulpit. Plants don't have that recourse
because they serve an alien agenda. They'll get purged.
And unlike Arabia's case Pakisan cannot pay for its own long-term occupation
by the House of Saud. It becomes sustainable or it fails catastrophically.
P.S. "Al-Zawahiri" is an incorrect transliteration. "Az-Zawahiri" is a correct
transcription. Araak (a city), araq (distilled spirits), Araaq (Iraq, in
Persian), Iraaq (Iraq, in Arabic), Araaq-e Ajam ('non-Arab-speaking Iraq,'
a western section of Iran in historical parlance). Don't expect American media
to get it anywhere close to right. Not even America's "terrorism experts" do.

Re #1179: A tiny Chinese navy contingent recently made a call at an Iranian port. One possible assumption is that the US, Russia, and China can't be working in tandem due to whichever set of mutually exclusive interests in which case without a (very) significant American offer (which Valet Obama may or may not be authorized to make) Iran will opt for SCO, anti-Imperial ideology, and cultural 'authenticity'--that's something China understands and can stomach--even at a hefty economic price, hedging its economic realization bets for a post-US world. Russian disruptive roulette and Chinese paper guns. Quite a mix. The other possible assumption is that there is a triumvirate bent on crushing and owning Iran. It is quite plausible and I don't think Iran would have any way out of that. It would surrender the "nukes" to the US, sell mining to China, and use the pittance thrown it to buy Russian arms. Cronies will engorge themselves on the financial flows. P.S. Forget the whole 'nuclear Iran,' 'volatile,' blahblah story. It's a distraction.
Re #1180: Supine ;-) About the US fate and its sealing, I propose checking what Iran's top import by dollar value is. It isn't wheat and it isn't gayPhones. Compare it with Canada's top import. Then take a look at when gold price peaked post-2000, see the trend, and give me a theory of why it started falling. That you cannot see that article's premise as the sealing of the US fate is probably due to your not seeing its broken reason. Here goes it: 1. Throwing out the article's Anglo-Jew chauvinism the reasons for Iran's economic backwardness should be sought in the fact it's a resource-exporting country that's been under the thumbs of its customers and weighed down by its rent seekers for 80 years. These promote a number of the worst social and economic pathologies. 2. Nationalized oil for Iran has meant corruption of state instrumentation as various interest groups--political elite, merchants, government workers, farmers, everyone and anyone belongs to some of these--competed for shares of the state oil revenue. Simultaneously, it has slowed down the dissipation of oil wealth because the state revenue has had to partially at least go into some development. 3. Once the US becomes the world's top oil exporter and reliant on it for its national security balance it will be susceptible to its customers' moods just like Iran has been. Its economic complexity index will fall. Furthermore, private exploitation which is the modus operandi in the US means there will not even be a barrier of obligatory state expenses on how fast the resource wealth transforms to bullion in certain offshore banks' vaults and some less easily transportable hard wealth (land and indsutries). 4. On the face of it the US hydrocarbon exports plan is to buy paper back from Asian creditors. India and East Asia--China and South Korea specifically--have gained leverage in Iranian economy and promoted high-level corruption. They will do times worse to the US. The sociopolitical pressures of China and India, over 2.5 billion people and counting, will be directly and ruthlessly translated to American sociopolitics. The private exploitation angle means buyback will at best be partial. American civic life will not survive that. 5. In the article's supposed endgame where NAFTA exploitation of North America's domestic resources would allow it to circumnavigate the Middle East, of what utility would any American involvement in that region be? 6. Are the "Iranian deevs, Arab ifrits, and Jew malekhs" essentially what they are presented to be or is their worth on the Imperial ladder a product of the Empire's needs? Once those needs are met to the fullest elsewhere, as the article purports, why would these populations stay as they are presented to be? What new insurmountable challenges would transformations of those populations present? (I could name you a few.) 7. Why would the US want to pit itself against anyone in the Middle East, in favor of any other one, if not for some intrinsic value tied to the lands rather than the peoples on them? In summary, the "interesting" Mr. -son is a Clash-of-"Civilizations" stooge. You can get an analysis of what's behind the memeplex he regurgitates here: -- http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/0415332664 Who do you think will come out standing from the Global Attrition Jihad?
Top imports: Canada - Category 1: "Vehicles, other than railway" Category 2: "Nuclear reactors, boilers, machinery" both tied @$63 billion annual import. http://www.ats-sea.agr.gc.ca/stats/4679- eng.htm Iran - gold Gold price peak - On Sept. 6, 2011, gold reached an all-time high of $1921.50 Why gold prices are low: High interest rates and low inflation are bad for gold. The opposite is true for high gold prices (when the economy is good, gold is cheaper). #1 The "Iran is dangerous, poor and doomed" angle was indicative of an obvious perspective. #2 Oil is not nationalized in the U.S. so the portrait is not compatible. State revenue comes from taxes, so The State will only encourage more oil production. #3 I think you are right here although the one saving grace will be that our exports are much much more diverse than traditional oil exporters. #4 not sure here from where I'm standing what the intent is. The message to Americans has always been, "cheaper oil/gas, more productive America" although greed will nullify this. Paying down Chinese debt? I don't trust our government to carry through with so many hands in the cookie jar. Either way, yes I can see Chinese and Indian influence. China holds $1.16 trillion in U.S. debt. Japan holds $1.12. You don't see horrible Japanese influence of American sociopolitics do you? US debt is $17 trillion. China's share is relatively small. Also: China's progress is predicated on America's progress. :) #5 and #6 I see NAFTA as a mutually beneficial arrangement within North America. Look at the trade between America and Canada. The oil produced is likely going to be used up mostly in NA. Beyond that, the exports are not likely to destroy Middle East oil inc. because of China's needs. Yet "Jihad is a luxury item" is true here. Is the effort exclusive to riding the world of terror threats? I don't think so though. American involvement in that region? I can't imagine. Maybe Bill Gates will be feeding vitamins to the locals. How desperate will the locals get for sustenance? How will they react to the choking off of $? How will Middle Eastern governments react? Can they self-sustain without America's cash? Is Europe going to love the new oil prices? Will their business be enough? God only knows. #7 I am ignorant here. This is all new territory for me. Most Americans are not even at the realization that America is the #3 world producer of oil so at least I'm ahead of that. On it's face, it looks like America is walking away from the Middle East. Resources other than oil can be purchased globally. Aside from all this, I always have a feeling like the shoe is going to drop here. The stock market can crash. Everything is vulnerable from several different angles. I can see why nations are hoarding gold. It's plain that the American dollar will collapse now or later. Perhaps domestic production of oil makes America less vulnerable to a great depression. Knowing it makes the politicians less likely to send po boys to kill the browns is a satisfying outcome. "Who do you think will come out standing from the Global Attrition Jihad?" As you can see, this is all confusing for me. So many variables. It's hard to see the forest through the trees (distractions). I would like to think that America's bad actions stem from it's need for oil (as part of it's National Security). Domestic oil is supposed to be a solution but I understand your thinking that there could be something more the globalists will want from the land in the Middle East (like minerals, agriculture or labor).

Which is the actual gold holdings of Iran: former CBI chief claim of over 900 tons (above Japan) or current CBI chief claim of slightly over 100 tons (slightly above Poland)? How come Iran's revenue was slashed in half (tens of billions) yet its sovereign reserve fund only declined by just over 10 percent (ca. 5 billion)? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Re. (1), the poor and doomed descriptions are actually correct. The question is: how can Iran be dangerous if NAFTA resources are supposed to do the magic of disentangling the US from Middle East? It doesn't compute that Iran would be a threat to the US and irrelevant to US trade at the same time. The history of an Iranian threat only makes sense because Iran has had some relevance to US trade. Re. (2), yes, that was the point. I explained the effects of oil nationalization in Iran and contrasted it with the US. Re. (3), the US exports hi-tech products, food, and resources. Who can depend on the US for both hi-tech and the resources that power it? How will they pay for it? Re. (4), the gist of the article's economic predictions was that oil exports will empower the US in Asia. How else can can oil make this possible other than by buying paper back? Japan is not a true sovereign state. It's a protectorate under AMPO. The dynamics of its relationship to the US is different than what the rest of Asia's is and would be. Want to see how foreign leverage ruins domestic sociopolitics? Look at Israel. Chinese "progress" follows primarily social pressures from within. Its threats and opportunities, domestic and foreign, come from the demographics of Asia. Its own population and that of two populous neighbors: India and Pakistan. The notion that it has anything of note to do with American consumption is false. China exports more to Japan and Hong Kong combined (both absolute and also slightly over 2.5 times per capita) than to the US. It imports more than 3 times from Asia than from the US. It has the entire world to expand into and it will--to the detriment of many, including Iran). Re. (5), NAFTA resource exploitation could cover North American consumption but leverage comes from exports. If US hydrocarbon is only going to extricate the US from foreign entanglement what's the function of that leverage? What objectives is the article suggesting? That's the crux of the matter and the article's proposal: drill own land, stop needing oil, become a... heroic cause. Re. (6), too many I-don't-know's :-P It isn't that murky. USD is only worth what it can buy and the current arrangement ensures what USD comes into the Middle East will soon be circulated back which is unlike the Asian arrangement. "Jihad is a luxury item" is categorically false. It's a reactionary movement. The less its fighters have, the more they will gun for. There is no "terror" threat per se, much less of a global nature. There is only reactions to economic arrangements. Re. (7), I do think there's intrinsic value to those lands and that that value has nothing to do with what's under or over them. Rather with where they are. That said, you can do away with my assumption and still have the article's self-contradiction: the US is supposed to pose for/against in the Middle East while extricating itself from it. How does that make sense? Another summary: what the article goes about is that Empire as a heroic cause--rather than as a petty resource grab--can be maintained if only the stability of hydrocarbon importers, as maintained by current US military-political machinations, can be saved from its involvement with the Middle East. Yet the term 'economic domination' is used in the same article. What economic domination is good for if the Empire is supposed to become a heroic cause? What's the heroic cause to begin with? Answer: American religion. No one who has started religious wars has come out standing from them.

I don't really have an identity. I don't need one either. As far as identity is concerned where we live: I believe people will identify YOU by your appearance and your last name in America. If your last name is "Jewish sounding" (aka -man, -berg, -vitz, -witz, or -sky) people assume Jew. If you have a Jewfro you are locked in! The reason I don't take any of it seriously is that most people don't really care here except for the people who do expect some kind of special treatment or kinship from people they assume identify themselves similarly.
Identity is an inextricable part of human life. Its construction, however, is multifactorial. Genotype, epigenetics, phenotype, socialization, and individual variations--conscious or unconscious--all play into it. Knowledge of identity produces identity politics--the engineering of identity. Jennifer Government, John Nike, or tod's favorite: Joe "Duff" Mercer. Zealous reduction of complex constructions to any single factor, or subset, only clouds the observer's view. Or serves some personal or group--can't do away with IDPOL--agenda. That isn't to say analysis is impossible. It just requires dedication, honesty, and up to par models.

Re #1223: Who does the headline logistics? Kurds? Who sends the arms? Who arranges the ranks? That's uncharacteristically naive of you. Fight alongside what? For what? I don't even see sides in this. By all indications, including the 'ISIS condemnation' responses from Mozzie clerics, it's a puppet show beyond belief. You already see the clerics on the same "side" as those who wipe their rear with the ISIS flag that has the equivalent of Tetragrammaton written on it. Accident? See any "hot-chick" PJAK headlines? How long till Komala spawns some "hot chicks?" I told you the story where all my paternal side are Kurds, where I speak (a dialect of) the language, and where my father as a militaryman was sent not once, but twice, under two different ruling states to put Kurds down which he did--didn't I? Komala "chicks" weren't "hot" back then or what? Or mi pappi picked the wrong side? Saddam, Pahlavis, the Turks, the Islamic Republic, the Americans, the British, and the (usual fly-in-the-soup) Jews have played Kurds and moved them around like cattle in stampede for decades. Over and over. Which is something that happens to you when you have delusions of grandeur but your written history goes back only eight decades. There were images of that celebrity-city's infrastructure being hammered down by bombs under the pretext that they were 'held by militants.' Who's going to rebuild those for Kurds? "Hot chicks?" Or a variation on the Assad, Erdogan, Obama, Khamenei, Saud, Thani mishmash? The idea is preposterous that the deluded bunch known as Kurds--the delusions are not entirely unlike those of the Jews but in Western host countries they have been worlds less successful--is running a functional recruitment campaign across Europe when the same bunch could not convince even the majority of their own to fight for any of their causes. If you look in the comments there's mention of 'Median Empire.' Can you guess where that came from and why "biker gangs" from Europe would pick that name?

re #1224 There is no "right" side in war. War is Hell. People die and it is beyond tragic. I'm sorry your pappi and uncle were involved in things like that. I was pointing out that Britons and Yanks as individuals may join either side for various reasons.
Re #1226: While war is condemnable in general it is sometimes just and necessary. There certainly are sides to war: winners and losers. I tried to explain the (understandable and tragically heroic) cultural obstinacy of a mountain-dwelling tribal bunch some of whom came to cities, like my father, and found out the world is moving on quite fast. While Kurds remain a mountain-dwelling tribal bunch their social organization capacity remains abysmal which absolves them from the cardinal sin of modern warfare and condemns them to cultural extinction. The clownish existence of Iraq's Kurdistan Region over the past few years, despite relative autonomy, made that clearer than before. As to the mercs in question my stance is that their reasons have been given them. They have not found those reasons of their own initiative and they certainly do not understand the dynamics of what they're being pawns to. I also insinuated on #1215 that (deniable) agents of the US are directly involved in the Syrian civil war at all levels. What better deniability than 'soldiers of (some) ideology?' If "ISIS" can pull that so can the "West."

You could be implying Russia has a hand in "ISIS," though, which doesn't mesh with what I've read. It is imaginable but would invalidate many data points I've assumed to be fact.

Saudi Oil Minister Ali Naimi told reporters he expects the oil market to eventually "stabilize itself." That suggests the Saudis, who effectively determine OPEC's production policy, will not back any calls for reducing output by other nations at Thursday's oil ministers' meeting. The global price of oil has fallen 32 percent since late June to $78 a barrel, from $115, amid booming shale production in the United States. That, and continued weakness in some major world economies, has led to supply outpacing demand. While the Saudis can weather such prices, poorer OPEC members like Venezuela and Nigeria need prices closer to $100 to fund national budgets. Iran too is suffering, with the price drop adding to huge revenue losses due to sanctions on it crude sales imposed over its nuclear program. Non-OPEC member Russia also needs prices substantially above present levels to meet budget goals. Russian energy officials met with representatives from Saudi Arabia, Venezuela and Mexico Tuesday but Venezuelan oil minister Rafael Ramirez said there was no agreement on a joint production cut.

Reversal of "Arab Spring": Maybe we can be friends again when Obama leaves office?

The ruling marks another major setback for the young activists who spearheaded the Arab Spring-inspired uprising nearly four years ago -- many of whom are now in jail or have withdrawn from politics. It will likely reinforce the perception that Mubarak's autocratic state remains in place, albeit led by a new president, former military chief Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi. Morsi, the Islamist who succeeded Mubarak, is also detained and faces a slew of charges, including some related to the killing of protesters, which could see him sentenced to death. He was elected in Egypt's first democratic presidential election in 2012 but was overthrown by el-Sissi a year later amid massive protests calling for his resignation. Since then the government has launched a sweeping crackdown on Morsi's Muslim Brotherhood group and other supporters, killing hundreds and jailing thousands. It has also jailed scores of secular activists, including some of the leaders of the 2011 uprising, for violating a draconian law regulating street protests that was adopted a year ago.

US Secretary of State John Kerry says any Iranian action against Islamic State (IS) in Iraq would be "positive". http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-30306106 He would not confirm Pentagon claims that Iran carried out strikes on IS. Iran is not a member of the US-led coalition and denies any co-operation. Mr Kerry praised the alliance for inflicting "significant" damage on IS, but said IS ideology, funding and recruitment needed to be destroyed. His comments came after the coalition's first high-level meeting in Brussels. IS controls large areas of Syria and Iraq, imposing a rigid version of Sunni Islam and persecuting or killing non-believers. --------------------------------------------------- The fact that the ISIS weapon wasn't pointed at Iran in the first place is interesting to me.

The thing about Bibi is, he s a chickenshit, this official said, referring to the Israeli prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, by his nickname. This comment is representative of the gloves-off manner in which American and Israeli officials now talk about each other behind closed doors, and is yet another sign that relations between the Obama and Netanyahu governments have moved toward a full-blown crisis. The relationship between these two administrations dual guarantors of the putatively unbreakable bond between the U.S. and Israel is now the worst it's ever been, and it stands to get significantly worse after the November midterm elections. By next year, the Obama administration may actually withdraw diplomatic cover for Israel at the United Nations, but even before that, both sides are expecting a showdown over Iran, should an agreement be reached about the future of its nuclear program. ----------------------------- There's always a "crisis". Remember Germany's anger about the (consensual) spying? All lip service.

Interesting article. My favorite part: "they would understand that Palestinians are subject to a blatantly unjust and racist regime, facing conditions no American would put up with for a moment without resisting. And they would see that this Israeli regime heavily subsidized by American tax dollars is animated by ideologies sharply at odds with American values, at least with how those values have evolved over the past 50 to 100 years." I would love to know what The American Conservative thinks "American Values" are. But to the argument made in the article, I agree. Perhaps some light will break through the cracks of the narrative we Americans get from the leftist media when events like this happen.
Re #1273: TAC is, nominally at least, a platform for so-called paleocons or constitutionalists. So 'American values' refers to the usual notions paraded by people of such persuasion.

Lanolin is a grease from sheep's wool, not a sweetener.

Merkel ally warns SPD against own diplomacy towards Russia Reuters The conservative Christian Social Union was on the defensive over a draft motion drawn up by senior officials for a party conference this week, stating that people wanting permanent residency "should be urged to speak German in public and in the family." The call came at a time of anxiety in Germany and elsewhere in Europe over immigration and increasing numbers of refugees. Critics viewed it as at best absurd, at worst a ploy to win votes by pandering to anti-immigrant sentiment. The general secretary of Chancellor Angela Merkel's Christian Democrats, Peter Tauber, said on Twitter it's "none of politicians' business whether I speak Latin, Klingon or Hessian at home," referring to his home region's dialect. Vice Chancellor Sigmar Gabriel said no one in his center-left party "would come up with the idea of banning immigrants from speaking their mother tongue, and I am sure that we will never reach this level of political dementia."

Re #1339: Passing judgment is not equivalent to dishing out a punishment. It's for the sake of historical record. Outside of TV crime drama, inside of reality, most criminals get away with their crimes. Acknowledging one's participation in crime is part of knowing one's place in the world. Reminding oneself and others of it is an act of charity. That's pretty much the only purpose reading the "news" has. As to ISIL and 700 Club or whatever, everyone has their own petty villains.

My observation: while I can accept things are not perfect where I live and am willing to discuss and criticize it, you lose your mind when any ridicule or criticism comes your way of where you live. You try to writhe your way out with vague intellectual pestering but believe me, it is transparent to everyone. The tough guy act and the abstract threats are laughable. It's also amusing to me that with three people left in this massage board, it has to devolve into this. It all started with your Jew hatred and moved onto your copycat isolationist "death to America" garbage. Do you see how that is off putting?

Canon Andrew White, known as the Vicar of Baghdad, fled Iraq in October for Israel and recounted how brutal the country has become for Christians. ISIS turned up and said to the children, You say the words that you will follow Mohammed,   White said in video posted on the Christian Broadcasting Network website. The children, all under 15, four of them, they said, No, we love Yeshua [Jesus], we have always loved Yeshua. They chopped all their heads off. How do you respond to that? You just cry. --------------------------------------------- No one wants to hear this of course but we must look at these matters from a practical perspective.

Certainly not his religion because he didn't have one.
Turns out he was wanted in Iran for 200K USD worth of fraud.

Its largest province, too, and houses most of its Shi'a population. Had unrest yesterday. Not in your news? -- http://is.gd/mikjYC I imagine Dhahran may see some shocks.
Definitely not in the news here today. It's all about the "mystery" attack on North Korea's internet. Saudi's need to read "How to Win Friends & Influence People" by Dale Carnegie How will this affect the price of oil? I imagine it might go up if anyone smells instability. Is there any evidence of instability? The article does not mention it.
Not yet, as far as I know. Saudi Arabia is almost a blackhole for any type of news. You won't even find its Gini index reported anywhere. This can be transient and easily suppressed with US aid like previous Shi'a mutinies, or it can really flare up. I don't think there'll be reporting on its actual scale before there's marching on the streets of Riyadh. BBC even uses two completely different jargons for reporting on this in English versus Persian.

Every few years, somebody tries to make a name by threatening to dismantle or heavily question the usefulness of CIA or USMC. It withers at some point. You don't hear about the courier of scientists from hostile networks in order to beat the Chinese, Russians, or AQ from acquiring assets - but it is commonplace and needed for national security.

Say, didja hear about chik-fil-a's payment card breach?
Seems like every day there's a new breach. What are our IT professionals worth anyway? *coy look* Honestly, that is what the public is going to arrive at eventually - but only when it interrupts their game on TV. The truth is, nothing is ever secure from anything no matter how many people they hire or money they spend. My bank (Wells Fargo) claims I have protection on my debit card. So far knock on wood...but I can say that when it does finally effect me, it's going to be cash only on a permanent basis. Right now the convenience is too irresistible. Side note #3 - going back to politics, there are sure to be lefties who claim some kind of moral justice was done to Chick-Fil-A for being a Christian organization. Count on that Nelson sound-byte "HA HA".
re #1446 What are our IT professionals worth anyway? *coy look* That question is a common one and the biggest answer I've seen is about the reputation of a company whose customers rely on being protected. Sony was a perfect example but there are even more subtle ones like Ford or VW losing millions of dollars worth of research and engineering intellectual property. My most recent example has to do with protecting the research of "What are some predictors of an earthquake?" Do I think a government should impose a standard? Well - they DID. HIPAA was the standard and its enforcement was a JOKE. BUT, you put the carrot on a stick and folks still want to play along..carrot being federal dollars or fines at 6 digits or enough to cause at least a few jobs. In higher ed, the big one is FERPA which threatens to kill a univerisity's student financial aid eligibility if certain records are exposed. That's a big deal to so many public institutions which rely mostly on federal student loans - maybe not so much to the private ones funded by children of celebs who put their business in social media w/o blinking. Then again, kids of celebs have other privacy concerns like being kidnapped, papparazzi targets, or burglary opportunities.
Regarding intellectual property: The truth is that nothing is safe or sacred. I'm surprised no one goes after Apple these days. That's a big old carrot just dangling in the wind. I've worked at places where the engineering projects are offline. Walled off physically from everyone but people with security clearance. All it takes is a sketch or a camera though. Any self-respecting engineer/cad guy/computer coder can take a long look at something and replicate it later. But having your research data right on the internet...it's begging to be stolen. What happened to intranets that have no internet connection? --- Regarding the million dollar question "What are our IT professionals worth anyway?" My thought is very simple: without it where would you be? Out in the open with no protection is a bad place to be!!! You'd be here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BPbdWuBHIEw
re #1448 Walled off physically from everyone but people with security clearance. All it takes is a sketch or a camera though. I've been in those places, too. And the vulnerabilities, imnsho, are always with the insider. It always boils down to hardware or human. Of course, the human side often is just about penny pinching on security so you wind up with very strong entrance doors and then once you're in it is a free for all. Most places are that simple in their approach. When I see an airliner go down over an ocean - I always simply assume there was an engineer or programmer on board who lacked loyalty.
I was reading this recently: -- http://www.ashgate.com/isbn/9780754678342 Quoted a bit of it about the Aggie Bonfire collapse here, too. In short, it's not as simple as 'loyalty' or 'work ethic.' The lazy or traitorous employee (or citizen?) is one of the last nodes in a causal network that produces catastrophes. Dominant flows in such networks are what's called 'policy' or 'doctrine.' Actual policies are rarely the same as stated policies. If a dominant flow is towards a catastrophic outcome responses of individual nodes end up either contributing or mattering little when consciously exerted in the opposite direction. Most employees (or citizens?) 'go with the flow' and the few who don't learn are made to pay the price at their own expense: whistleblower, killjoy, underachiever. (It gets awfully more complicated when there is competition and multiple loosely coupled networks affecting each other.)
janc is between the lines '...Understanding human error as an effect of often deep, systemic vulnerabilities rather than as a cause of failure, is an important but necessary step forward from the oversimplified views that continue to hinder real progress in safety management.' I'm sold... now how to re-educate management at the C level on breaking old habits of blame and corruption?

I think ISIS is a cult. Not an Islamic cult. I think it's a cult." ---------------------------------------- Maybe the Catholics who ordered the crusades were in a cult too.

Iran's unseen missile defense system Tehran has begun to mass-produce its own fighter jets, as well as suicide combat drones and what it dubbed the world s first missile evading drone, according to recent announcements made by the country s military and political leaders. http://tinyurl.com/lkck5z6 ------------------------------------------- False sense of security? Are the systems real? Would the first layer of defense be enough to stop an Israeli attack? I doubt it. I feel the same way about other missile defense systems installed around Europe by the U.S. and the "Iron Dome." I have no doubt they would block some attacks but the inevitable destruction of war can not be stopped. Big picture: Size of Israel: 8,019 sq miles Population of Israel: 8.059 million (2013) Size of Israel's armed forces: 624,500 (176,500 active and 445,000 reserve) Allies: Too many to list here. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foreign_relations_of_Israel Size of Iran: 636,400 sq miles Population of Iran: 77.45 million (2013) Size of Iran's armed forces: 700,000 soldiers according to the CSIS Allies: Lebanon, Palestinian Authority, Russia, Syria, Venezuela ------------------------------- Iran has the bigger country, larger army and larger population but Israel has the allies and the top gear. Israel is also cornered. My synopsis: I suspect Iran's allies would back down in a conflict with Israel. I do not expect Jordan or Egypt to attack Israel in such a conflict and the Palestinian Authority is ghetto poor with resources. Would it be strategically wise for Syria or Lebanon to back Iran in such a conflict? NO. Missile defense is just a speed bump.
re #1470 Two nukes can even the playing field just like a handgun in a fist fight. I don't think either country is interested in finding out what the other has in its pocket. The military weapons and toys are more about industry and commerce, imo.
#1471 I agree for the most part about industry. It is still good to look at the big picture from time to time to put the propaganda in context. No country wants a mutual bloodbath. At least I hope that is the case.

#1495 1. Didn't see a return flight. Disposable? 2. I didn't see it engage in combat. It dropped a payload...that's about it. 3. Fit and finish looks highly questionable. Also, bright red? Kinda obvious. I'm sure the engineers would say, "hey, it's a prototype." #1496 "Malathion is an insecticide of relatively low human toxicity." LOL I'm sure.
The takeaway is actually subtler than "EPA and FDA are lying." EPA and FDA are allowing blind human experimentation at scale. The results are presented ipso facto but the exposure model is a crippled one. For example, it assumes only skin contact in case of toddlers in public parks which is odd. Hand-to-mouth is routinely considered in child non-dietary ingestion models.

#1520 My iPad morphed "allegiance" into "alliance." I probably misspelled it and it auto-corrected. Important difference because allegiance to Israel from Jews in America to the motherland rather than alliance where there's some kind of deals (mutually beneficial or otherwise). I also imagine there are many influential constituents in some districts who are Jewish which would lead to non-Jew politicians' pro-Israel support. You don't really see this with other migrants here. The Arab- American population is growing here (1.5 million). 1.4% of the US population is Jewish. Less than one percent is Arab American.* 62% of Arab Americans originate from Syria, Lebanon, Palestine and Jordan. I wonder if the Arab-Americans are asking for and getting support from politicians here. If so, it's not news-worthy because it's not on my radar.

Resp:1513 I did not see the movie, nor did I read what is clearly a rubbish article. I just want to respond to the part bellstar quoted. A lot of Americans joined the military right after 9/11, and a lot of them ended up going to Iraq. The argument of whether there is a link between the 9/11 attacks and our invasion of Iraq is a subject for another time, but the movie may have been showing that a lot of people joined the military to fight against an existential threat, only to be thrown into a geopolitical/global industrial fight.
Re #1524: That's a sneaky iPad. The issue of allegiance is kind of thorny. Barring incredibly successful indoctrination there's no reason an American Jew whose ancestors never lived in Palestine would see Israel as motherland. Strangely, there are many who do. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Re #1526: The article is well-documented. I don't know what makes it clear to you, without having read it, that it's rubbish. The article's purpose is clarifying the film's connection to the book it's based on and specifically the character of the thug at its center. Making a hero out of a real-life character whose motivations and behavior are questionable even per his own writing is exactly what the article's title says: lying to America. If anyone, American or otherwise, is motivated to give the book a read after watching the film their judgment of America at large can only take more of a dive. Of utmost importance is that the Americans who were duped into the military under the impression that they were doing a form of service to their nation rather than just its elite were deceived by the same media moguls which have now come up with another propaganda work--the film in question. Many things could have taken a better turn for them and others had they not believed anything coming out of those mouths. More generally, any war the US has fought in the past few decades has been elective. An exmaple of a 'geopolitical/industrial fight.'

Yes indeed, they should only be trusted with government officials, military and police. They will always do the right thing. Idiots like that make me want to go buy one on the way home from work.

Right now i imagine the secret service uploaded the video where it starts with some jackass staring at the camera before it is sent out on it's mission. since it's consumer level, the guy is probably launching it from a nearby parking lot or building. They will trace the path it took when it traveled. They will know who distributes it, and trace it back to the credit card number. Maybe. What can they really do? What charges can they file against him/her? It would be a landmark case if they wanted to. Maybe the whole thing is fake and they set some dude up just so they can pass new laws.

All Islamists are thug boys: Oppressing with Sharia Law Enslaving women and children Kidnapping and extorting cash Killing innocent people Religiously intolerant Cruel and evil punishments including death for benign acts Sodomizing boys
Not all Islamist do that so not all Islamists are thugs. All US armed forces are engaged in oppression of nations so all US armed forces are thugs. It's a side-effect of association with USG.
Not all Islamists do that? That's your argument? Islamism is a cancer that erradicates the lives and souls of everyone it touches. The victims are the Arab people. They are the ones being held down by it and losing their lives to it. The support of Arab Spring was calculated. It was never about freedom. It was about destabilization and subsequent oppression. It worked. When the U.S. Armed forces return to destroy Islamic State, it will be to the benefit of the world. They will have allies with them.

In a new online video discovered by the Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI) on Tuesday, three Islamic State fighters stand behind a kneeling Kurdish fighter as one of the extremists launches into a diatribe against the U.S. and other Western nations.

ISIS has a few great PR moves it hasn't pulled it and I really really really wonder why. One is to make a few hour long enhanced interrogation video. Title 'ISIS Does Not Torture,' upload to YouTube. Instant gold.
No need to torture for interrogation. What tactical information can be gathered from random people (pilots, aid workers, pipeline contractors, etc.)? No, ISIS does not need to torture. They do need to create snuff films for their followers and the western media. This is done not for anything other than fund raising. The future of Islamic State created by extorting, killing, mutilating, enslaving and terrorizing. Noble. When it comes to complaining about torture they don't have a leg to stand on.
They? You realize it's quite easy to see your sickness? ;)
English 101 they: plural pronoun, possessive their or theirs, objective them. In this case the noun "they" refers to is ISIS. If you want a further breakdown (borrowed from wikipedia for conciseness): The Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant is a jihadist rebel group that controls territory in Iraq and Syria and also operates in eastern Libya, the Sinai Peninsula of Egypt, and other areas of the Middle East, North Africa, South Asia, and Southeast Asia. Nice distraction from the fact that people who mutilate, enslave, kill and extort in the name of Islam are much worse than a sovereign nation that tortures known jihadists for military intelligence. Disease meets the medicine.

Dispelling the sad myth that Jews run the media: there are 6 corporations that own, run and distribute 90% of the American media. http://www.businessinsider.com/these-6-corporations-control-90-of-the- media-in-america-2012-6 FYI: Corporations are generally owned by shareholders, not a cabal of Jews.
2 sides of the same coin: The shared genetic heritage of Jews and Palestinians: http://www.patheos.com/blogs/epiphenom/2009/01/shared-genetic- heritage-of-jews-and.html#sthash.PtJvUlYT.dpuf The good news is that the genetics of Arabs and Jews have been pretty extensively researched. The classic study dates to 2000, from a team lead by Michael Hammer of University of Arizona. They looked at Y-chromosome haplotypes this is the genetic material passed from father to son down the generations. What they revealed was that Arabs and Jews are essentially a single population, and that Palestinians are slap bang in the middle of the different Jewish populations (as shown in this figure). Another team, lead by Almut Nebel at the Hebrew University, Jerusalem, took a closer look in 2001. They found that Jewish lineages essentially bracket Muslim Kurds, but they were also very closely related to Palestinians. In fact, what their analysis suggested was that Palestinians were identical to Jews, but with a small mix of Arab genes what you would expect if they were originally from the same stock, but that Palestinians had mixed a little with Arab immigrants.

#1641 Jew and Palestinian are one in the same. India and Pakistan. North and South Korea. I suspect that Jews from Europe have a LOT of mixed blood from Europeans and that they differ substantially from ethnic Jews from Palestine. But I do find humor in the fact that ethnic Jews from the region are the same genetic makeup as Arabs in the West Bank.
Re #1642: > But I do find humor in the fact that ethnic Jews from the region are the > same genetic makeup as Arabs in the West Bank. Yet the glossing over of who Jews are and who Palestinians are by a Hebrew University hack will be used to justify the "return" of a savage from Brooklyn at the expense of multiple someone else's livelihood. That's dark humor if anything.
#1643 "Yet the glossing over of who Jews are and who Palestinians are by a Hebrew University hack will be used to justify the "return" of a savage from Brooklyn at the expense of multiple someone else's livelihood. That's dark humor if anything." Have I ever provided a counter-stance? The humor or dark humor is a reaction to something that is not reasonable and frustrating. I can play devil's advocate too and see it from the perspective of the post WWII Jewish refugee that had no home, who was rejected from all countries. Desperate times. The UN backed the creation of a Jewish State because that was THEIR final solution. It's all messy from where I'm standing. Have you considered blaming Germany?
Re #1644: > who was rejected from all countries Strictly false. Henry Morgenthau (Junior) actually had a falling out with Truman over his rerouting ships with thousands of DP Jews to Palestine. Hans Morgenthau--German Jew with no known blood relation to the American Morgenthau family--later became the founder of American neoconservatism. Look up Wannsee Conference, Haavara Agreement, Schacht Plan as well. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > The UN backed the creation of a Jewish State because that was THEIR > final solution. False. UNGA voted, despite UNSCOP findings, on a partition in UNGAR 181 to be implemented by UNSC. The 1948 Ben-Gurion declaration is unrelated to the UN and literally against UNGAR 181. Knowing clearly war would ensue the British even abstained from voting on UNGAR 181, let alone supporting Ben-Gurion's adventure. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Have you considered blaming Germany? More than a million Russian and East Bloc Jews flooded the place after the Soviet collapse. That was nearly a half of the place's Jewish population of the time. Why would I blame Irving Moskowitz's funding of Russian Jews' disloyalty on Germany?
It'd be like blaming the amount of Sauds in Dearborn MI on Iran. Very different critters. German Jews and E European/Russian Jews are vastly different at least culturally. My Sarmatian blood? Why do I feel like a mutt at the dogpound? LOL
Re #1646: > German Jews and E European/Russian Jews are vastly different at least > culturally. No doubt about that. Moskowitz doesn't fund it based on culture.

Michael Douglas wrote a nice piece on his family experiences with anti- Semitism and talks about scapegoating Jews during bad times: http://tinyurl.com/o46t968 (Links to LA Times)
re #1649 Great read and too familiar. A flipside conversation just to be fair though is that I was motivated to trace my family's roots ever since I was little and attended my great-aunt's funeral. It was there that some of the family was open to the rest about "We are Jews." You can imagine the recoiling self hatred and denial of many whom may have been brought up with fabricated tales simply because they wouldn't have been able to get employment or feel equal among those around them. I was instead fascinated because there was never discussion of such a thing and many of these relatives were your typical Detroit hard working and partying with rough talk average blue collar Americans. It was a reality to me at that point that there is nothing special about origins and heritage when it comes to being who we are. After I'd grown and been in war, I had the opportunity to visit the country of my paternal ancestors and expected maybe a few actual physical altercations just by showing my interest in "What happened to the Jews" but quite the contrary. Perhaps just a mirror image of the amount of being a Jew was revealed to me by my mother in law's best friend. It turned out many of my aquaintances in Bucharest had a Jewish parent or both. And it was no big deal - no more than it was in my own family. In my formative years, I'd heard/seen the word "Jew" used as a negative slur against people who were tightwads. I'm sure many of the folks saying it also had some ancestral intrigue in their own tree so I never gave it much thought. Every nasty racist name you cna think of got tossed around in my neighborhood and most didn't take it literal - it was part of the language among factory folks for the sake of entertainment and adjectives. I had a job at Ford Motor Co as a 3rd party sysadmin and one day, a Wednesday, one of the VP's came up to me to ask a question. I let him know there was some dirt on his forehead. The response was sort of a pissed "I know." I repeated it expecting him to wipe it off and got another more stern "I KNOW." Oh wow, it was Ash Wednesday and I was demonstrating my ignorance. I was also wearing a star of david on my necklace. That gave me alot to think about regarding both myself and maybe what my grandfather and father had experienced. These days it really isn't such a big deal (I'm assuming) but being in Orange County, California where the whole Minutemen and Birther movements have originated I can detect alot of the veiled racism around me. Right down the street is the Saddleback Church with Rick Warren and in the other direction is the Crystal Cathedral of televangelist Robert Schuller. Many of my coworkers are members of each and are pretty open about it. You see "NOTW" (Not of this World) on the rear windshield of every other car, in fact. To balance it out, there is a Chabad House at the corner next to a Little Caesars pizza. And so whom do I find myself hanging out with the most at work? Guys with Persian or Indian background. I suspect it is because we don't feel a connection to the locals. Or because we're not provincial (hahaha)

re #1651 Paul Schaeffer is a fag. www.youtube.com/watch?v=QM2ZiFmOICc School was cancelled starting on Dec 22, '89 in Romania and people were scared. Worried what happens if the revolution fails..food runs out... people freeze to death..lights go out...and the TV was on in the AM for the first time ever..and the newscasters weren't in makeup and were basically coming in off the street to report what was happening. People started to make their own newspapers..for the first time since.. what..before 1950. How is this going to work out...people were glued to the tv. What a f#*@'ed up Christmas people thought... And I was watching while America was distracted by Panama.

Imperialist Iran: Yemen's Houthi militia close in on president's Aden base http://www.reuters.com/article/2015/03/25/us-yemen-security- idUSKBN0ML0YC20150325 "Houthi leaders have said their advance is a revolution against Hadi and his corrupt government, and Iran has blessed their rise as part of an "Islamic awakening" in the region. "Yemen's slide towards civil war has made the country a crucial front in mostly Sunni Saudi Arabia's rivalry with Shi'ite Iran, which Riyadh accuses of stirring up sectarian strife through its support for the Houthis. Sunni Arab monarchies around Yemen have condemned the Shi'ite Houthi takeover as a coup and have mooted a military intervention in favor of Hadi in recent days. U.S. officials say Saudi Arabia is moving heavy military equipment including artillery to areas near its border with Yemen, raising the risk that the Middle East s top oil power will be drawn into the worsening Yemeni conflict. Saudi sources said the build-up, which also included tanks, was purely defensive."
I find the prospect of this one to be quite humorous: Iran might attack American troops in Iraq, U.S. officials fear Read more: http://www.politico.com/story/2015/03/could-iran-attack- us-troops-in-iraq-116365.html#ixzz3VPdBJzID "Two scenarios are of particular concern, officials say. One is that a collapse of the nuclear talks could escalate tensions between Iran and the U.S., emboldening Iranian hard-liners and potentially leading to attacks on Americans in Iraq. Story Continued Below The other is that increased U.S. efforts to oust Syrian president Bashar Assad, a close ally of Tehran, could provoke retaliation from Iran. White House officials who oppose greater involvement in Syria s civil war often cite concern for the safety of Americans in Iraq as a reason for caution, sources said. In either case, U.S. officials fear, Iran could direct the Iraqi Shiite militias under its control to attack U.S. troops aiding the fight against the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant." -------------------------------- If this were to happen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_50-gOeBilc
Will Iran's actions in Yemen give Netanyahu's fight/fear of Iranian nuclear weapons credibility? Where was the Peninsula Shield Force during Arab Spring? Conflict of interest? Afraid of Obama? The Arab League summit has invited Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi to speak this Saturday. Same bat time, same bat channel.
Fairly predictable outcome: Houthi Fighters in Yemen Attack Air Base Used by U.S. Forces http://www.nytimes.com/2015/03/26/world/middleeast/al-anad-air-base- houthis-yemen.html "The United States evacuated its military personnel from Al Anad several days ago, with fighters from Al Qaeda s Yemeni affiliate moving closer from one side and Houthi fighters pushing closer from the other." "Yemen is sliding toward a civil war with ominous elements of a sectarian feud, a regional proxy conflict, the attempted return of an ousted authoritarian, and the expansion of anti-Western extremist groups like Al Qaeda and the Islamic State eager to capitalize on the chaos. The Houthis, a religious group from northern Yemen, practice a variant of Shiite Islam and receive support from Iran."
Houthi is not a religious group. It's an ethnic group which happens to have a religion, too. Not all Houthis practice the same religion. Yemen has been in a civil war since the 1970s when the first Yemenese government was formed in the northwest while the southeast remained under British control. Yemen also happens to be the only country on the Arabian Peninsula to have actual elections with universal suffrage which in the last 10 years have been screwed over by the US and Saudi Arabia because the outcomes were not to their liking. In short, don't really use Jew rags as sources of information. Barefaced lying is a time-proven Anglo-Jew profession. Also let's have tod opine some about Schindler blue instead of his blue collar family barbecues.
