Massacres and False-Flag Attacks

In the past week, there have been multiple bombings and shoot-outs which have drawn worldwide media attention.

The main massacre occurred in Aurora, Illinois, where 12 people were killed by college student, James Holmes, in a movie theatre early Saturday morning during the opening night for the new Batman movie.

After the massacre came the usual sob-stories of the poor victims and the bewilderment about how such a smart guy could do something like this, and why?

The police and others started to search for a motive, which to this date they are unable to find. They are calling James Holmes “mentally disturbed.” 

But why was he mentally disturbed? Why does the US have the highest amount of these shootings out of any other country out there?

The general consensus is that violent TV shows, movies and video games are to blame, but these are just the symptoms, which are reflective of the true culprit:

The US government.

Just look at US foreign policy. It is belligerent, aggressive, and uses deceit, violence and threat of violence to achieve its objectives.  It summarily executes even its own citizens (ex. is the Awlaki case), and uses unmanned drones to drop bombs on villages without any regard who it really kills. It also teaches that compromise and admitting your own errors are signs of weakness. War is also glorified and so are those who fight in it.

This disgusting and violent behavior then permeates popular culture and saturates the TV and game console screens with violence, blood and death.

It teaches people that violence is an accepted and effective way of solving one’s problems, and brainwashes people with false and destructive notions that “diplomacy does not work,” or that “there are no other options except war.” 

There are always peaceful ways to solve a conflict. Those who say otherwise are simply not interested in peace and want violence for their own demented and self-serving interests.

A government which practices such evil and inhumanely violent policies as the US does, should not be surprised when one of its own decides to take a page from the US government’s and military’s playbook and decides to solve their problems by employing violence. These people are just taking the bad example which the US government gives them!

And now we have Obama, the prime terrorist and war criminal and murderer, giving speeches about how shocked he is by this massacre, and how people must be kinder and more understanding. 

All this coming from a man who every Tuesday goes through a kill-list to decide on whom to kill next, thousands of miles away, as if he was picking out a pair of shoes.

What a damn hypocrite Obama is for feigning shock at mass murder when he orders mass murders by unmanned drones every day, as well as bombings and massacres by his newest rotten proxy, the Syrian free army death squads.

If Obama wants to know what was responsible for this latest theatre massacre, he need not go further than the closest restroom mirror!

He himself, through his violent policies and assassination orders sets the example that violence is okay.

People are getting all torn up about this latest shooting. They are horrified that an American killed 12 other Americans in a movie theater.

But what about the massacres perpetrated by US soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan? Nobody in the US seems to care, or even know anything about those. Those massacres carried out by Americans against foreigners do not elicit the sympathy as does a home-made massacre at a college, store or movie theatre.

This perhaps is the problem: the callousness of American society, which revels in violence, machismo and militarism. As long as American society allows violent content into their living rooms, games and accepts war as the primary, and only, way to solve problems, incidents such as these will just keep on occurring.

In a way, these people who sat in that theatre were also to blame for what happened. They went to see a movie which shows that violence is a good way to solve problems. They all got a live demonstration of this as well.

James Holmes is also a victim. He grew up in this violence-worshipping society and in the end he did just what this society preached. Why should anyone be surprised by that?

When people are taught to kill, it is just a matter of when, not if, someone puts those lessons to use.

BULGARIAN BUS BOMBING

On Wednesday, July 19, 2012, a bus bombing occurred in the city of Sofia, Bulgaria. In the attack, five Israelis were killed.

At this point, no one knows who was responsible, but the Zionist authorities immediately blamed Hezbollah and Iran, without presenting any credible evidence whatsoever.

But let us keep in mind that Israel has recently been experiencing mass protests and two men have immolated themselves to protest the rising prices, social inequality and government corruption. 

This bus bombing occurred while those protests were going on. The timing is very suspicious.

This attack could very well be a false-flag operation carried out by the Israeli Mossad, in order to create fear and hatred of Iran and Arabs so as to divert the protesters attention from how badly they are being screwed by their own government, and onto straw men and fictitious threats.

There is of course a precedent for this. 

In the 1960s, throughout Eastern Europe as well as in Iraq and other Arab countries, there were anti-Jewish riots which resulted in a mass migration of Jews to Israel.

There is credible evidence that these riots were instigated by Israeli intelligence services in order to force Jews to migrate to Israel and fight its wars. Those who refused to leave were threatened and worse.

During WW2, Jewish refugees who tried to escape Hitler’s Germany on ships were refused entry into the US and turned back to Europe at the behest of influential Zionist Jews, which wanted to force them to emigrate to Palestine only. 

Also during WW2, a wealthy Jew, Rudolf Kastner, made a deal with the Nazis in which he and his wealthy friends and family were to be given safe access out of Germany and in return other poorer Jews would take their place in the work camps.

Then there was the Lavon affair, in which Israeli agents tried to plant bombs in Egypt at places which were frequented by Americans and then blame them on Arab terrorists in order to provoke a war between Egypt and the US. The plot was discovered and foiled.

In June of 1967 Israeli fighter jets and gunboats attacked an unarmed US intelligence ship, the USS Liberty, knowing well that the ship was American. They attacked the ship for 2 hours.  Thirty-two US sailors were killed and more than a hundred injured. The Israeli gunboats also strafed life rafts used by injured sailors with gunfire, which is a war crime. Israel blamed it on a case of mistaken identity.

The Johnson Administration covered it up, and at the time of the attack the US government refused to give orders to a nearby US ship to go in defense of the USS Liberty. Israel never faced punishment, and the USS Liberty sailors who survived the attack were told to shut up and not say anything to anyone, under the penalty of court-martial and arrest.

Then there are the India and Thai Israeli embassy bombings that occurred earlier in 2012. No One was killed, and of course Iran was blamed. But this seems like just another Zionist perpetrated false-flag, in order to dupe and force the world into attacking Iran.

These are just a few examples of the many out there which show that the Zionist state is perfectly capable of killing its own people as well as their allies in order to further their military and strategic aims.

Such deceitful and violent behavior is the main cause of terrorism and massacres that occurred in Bulgaria and Aurora.

If such policies are not reversed, and people who give them life not removed from positions of authority, these murders and massacres will continue.

The Freedom Racket

"None are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely believe they are free."

--Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

A few days ago, the US celebrated its 236^th Independence Day.  With all the clichés about freedom and democracy which are the standard fare on this day, it is perhaps time to reflect upon where this country stands, where it is going, and on this thing called freedom.

When one checks the Democracy Index, it is clear that for all its lofty rhetoric and self-congratulatory dribble, the US ranks below its self-assumed status of the “greatest democracy in the world.”

An honest look at the history of the US since its founding shows very clearly that real freedom and democracy have been quite elusive for the average American.

This notion of American exceptionalism, home of the free, and great democracy are more hyperbole and propaganda rather than fact.

In my last essay, I stated that the US was founded by thieves and opportunists. Those thieves and opportunists by the end of the 18^th century became more refined and affluent, but the old colonialist thieving itch was still there.

The wealthiest of the colonial elite, such as Washington, Jefferson, Adams, etc., decided to take the wealth of the continent for themselves. Then they embarked on the business of revolution which, with foreign help, and the exploitation of the common rabble’s anger, fears and prejudices, ended in victory. 

Immediately following the revolution, the so-called founding fathers moved quickly to centralize government and decision-making in the hands of the wealthy land-owning elite.  Unrest and rebellion followed, and crackdowns by the enlightened new American government against the very people whom it was supposed to “free.”

The American Revolution was perhaps one of the greatest cons which the wealthy elites have perpetrated over the common man (who did the heavy lifting for them). This abusive tradition continues to this day.

Let’s now digress and talk about this idea of freedom. 

National governments, politicians and the media, which act as their propaganda mouthpieces, always try to shove a pre-defined and propagandized definition of freedom into peoples’ minds. But what is freedom really? 

To me, freedom is best defined as being able to think and act without hindrance of any kind. When true freedom reigns, people are allowed to do what they want, when they want it, without having to answer to anyone. 

How many of you, according to the definition of freedom written above, can truly say that you are free?

Not many, Im sure.

For those of you who may scoff at my definition of freedom as being cynical, anti-American or stupid, I have a simple request which will help you see my point.

Don’t pay taxes.

Then you will see how “free” you really are. I guarantee that you will quickly see very clear limits on your freedom.

If not paying taxes isn’t your thing, then go past the speed limit on the road by, say, 30 miles while passing a police car.The limit on you "freedom" will be quickly realized.

My point is that there is no such thing as a free society. At best, there are only societies with limited privileges, granted by the ruling elite to the people below them.

Just one law, regulation or statute voids any society’s freedom. A central authority of any kind also voids real freedom, since it co-opts the decision-making powers of the nation, and holds other subordinate to itself and its laws. Elections are not an expression of freedom, since real freedom does not require authority.

Freedom is what people have given up to have an orderly society. Real freedom is disorder and chaos. Real freedom has much more in common with anarchy than democracy.

In reality, the US is as free as Soviet Russia was, and as communist China or any other country is for that matter.  In all these places everyone was/is left alone as long as they stayed quiet and did not rock the boat. But as soon as anyone stuck their head out and started to challenge the system and the powers-that-be, they found themselves in a prison cell, gulag, re-education center and were accused of terrorism and subversion. The way in which the authorities dealt with the Occupy Wall St. protests is a good example of this reality.

Today, the United States plays the leading role in denying others the right to make their own decisions. The global reach of the US, spurred by economic exploitation, continues on interfering in other nations internal affairs, manipulates their political processes, and wreaks havoc on their economies. Any nation which is not keen on adopting a US-style economy is seen as a threat and is punished with sanctions, embargoes blockades and military threats. 

Governments which are populist and go against US economic and political interests are overthrown and replaced with pro-US puppets which more often than not are brutal and oppressive. On US orders these collaborationist governments ruthlessly deal with any opposition they encounter, especially if the opposition voices support for any economic policies which do not put US corporate interests first.

Iran and Syria are two of the latest victims of this treatment. By refusing to surrender their national interest for Washington’s, they have been subject to violent psy-ops and economic strangulation. These countries have been sanctioned, their economies choked, their populations terrorized by western proxy death squads. The desires of these nations’ people do not matter to the US. 

How can the US talk of freedom and self-determination when it engages in acts of violence and oppression which take away the rights and self-determiantion of others? When has the US ever asked the Iranian or Syrian public what they really want? The US has reached the heights of arrogance and condescension by thinking it knows better what people living in other countries want.

America’s desire to spread freedom and democracy and protect “human rights” is just a sham. Its true aim is to expand markets for the products and services of its corporate overlords, by any means necessary.

The reason why there is no serious mass movement or rebellion against US government and corporate excesses is because the powers-that-be a long time ago figured how to control people by getting them addicted to breads, circuses and materialism. They also made sure that the bottom 99% will never have economic self-determination by deliberately undercutting their wages, even as productivity has gone up hundreds of percent. 

One of the main ways this is done is by paying people just enough to be able to pay the mortgage and the bills. At the same time, people are enticed to buy more and more by using credit. This turns people into perpetual debt slaves. With credit cheap and easy to get, employers are able to pay their workers below the minimum, with credit cards making up the shortfall. This is a criminal fleecing of the public.

The elites have figured out how to keep the bare minimum of people minimally content in order to prevent any serious challenge to their power. Some may protest, but most people have been so trapped by the system of private debt and government carrots that they will not dare say anything even when they know that something is very wrong, for fear of losing their livelihood.

Freedom is more than just being allowed to vote, or speak your mind or practice any faith. In reality, the US, as well as any other nation, will try to limit the free-will of its citizens as much as possible. It is the only way the elites who control the levers of power can realize their interests which more often than not go against the interests of the majority of people below then.

It is at this point that propaganda and national myths come into play. The US society is the most brilliant example of how propaganda, brainwashing and national myth can corrupt peoples’ psyche. This extreme propaganda and conditioning of the American mind to think of itself as the best even when it commits the worst has caused a serious crisis of pathological dishonesty in American society, to the point where the lies are accepted as truth by the very people who make up those lies.

Many of these sick and degenerate individuals then get elected to the highest positions in the land and start bombing and invading countries, loot the nation and manipulate public opinion to see the most criminal and hypocritical behavior as right and good. 

This results in self-destructive behavior where people put their lives and their best interests in jeopardy in order to serve the aims of their manipulators in authority.

The most flagrant example is that many people, whether they realize it or not, have accepted the premise that capitalism is the only choice for society, and for the good of capitalism, and in order to save capitalism, they have to accept and live with the financial fraud which the capitalist system foists upon them.  Even though they may not like it, they see this as the only answer, because the alternative is socialism or chaos, or some other unknown “worse” which remains undefined, perhaps to create even more fear and doubt in peoples’ minds.

This fear and doubt prevents people from demanding real change in the system, which is what the ruling elites count on. This attitude can clearly be seen by the lack of any kind of effective mass movement or action by the majority of people in the face of some of the worst abuses by the financial industry and their government allies.

How utterly pathetic and unimaginative is it to think that capitalism is the only, and the best economic system that was ever devised, and that there is no alternative. Look at human ingenuity. If people can teach themselves to fly, go into space and create a machine that does billions of mathematical calculations per second, they can surely devise an economic system better than capitalism. This is totally possible if the desire and the will is there.

The evil twin of this servile behavior was seen right after 9/11. People were so eager to be kept “safe” from terrorism that they were willing to give up their rights and privileges.

Many times, the governing elites will also try to co-opt any force which goes against them, but which cannot be simply repressed due to overwhelming popular support. Too many promising individuals fall prey to this tactic. The rule of thumb is this: if any individual, no matter how progressive and reform-minded, and “against the system” they may seem, hitch themselves to any mainstream political party, then that person is a fraud.

Out of this morass of brainwashed and paranoid citizenry emerge individuals with loud mouths, who not only have been corrupted by the system, but act as operatives for it. They embrace their servility and intellectual and moral bondage to the elites and their system, and openly agitate for them. They also accuse and condemn anyone who dares to challenge their demented notions as enemies and haters of the nation. The worst offenders are the Limbaughs, O’Relly’s, Becks, Savages and Malkins of our day.

These types of individuals and groups, whether they are ignorant flag-waving hicks in the country side, or billionaire bankers in some mansion, act as protectors of these bad policies and this rotten neo-liberal system. They decry and repress those who try to challenge them with the facts. By doing so, these misled individuals are preventing justice from being done. Their anti-social and criminal behavior is jeopardizing the future of the world and takes everyone back in time to the 19^th and early 20^th centuries as far as social, economic and political progress is concerned.

Freedom cannot be granted by any government or political body, because such a freedom is a contradiction. Natural freedom is something which everyone actually has from birth, and this is then taken away from you by authority! Most of the time people give up this freedom in return for societal order and its comforts.  So in the end it comes down to what people want: freedom or order. These two things are NOT one and the same. By embracing one, you have to give up the other. There is no middle ground here, no matter how hard you try to find one.

There is no freedom in today’s societies as long as one is alive. The only freedom that you can look forward to is the freedom of the grave.

"The illusion of freedom will continue as long as it's profitable to continue the illusion. At the point where the illusion becomes too expensive to maintain, they will just take down the scenery, they will pull back the curtains, they will move the tables and chairs out of the way and you will see the brick wall at the back of the theater." 

 – Frank Zappa

The Circus Continues…

The Evil Empire is still attempting to subdue Syria.  In the past months, it has incited more violence and massacres and blamed them on the Syrian government.

Recently, a Turkish fighter jet strayed into Syria’s airspace. The Syrians managed to successfully shoot down the jet using the Russian-supplied air defense system. This caused a huge ruckus from Turkey, NATO and the US. Turkey started threatening Syria with war and military intervention under NATO law. It convened a meeting of NATO members to decide on a course of action which will be used to punish Syria for this flagrant act of aggression.

There are a few problems with this scenario.

1. Turkey has been the most active member of the anti Assad team, and has hosted rebel training camps and weapons-smuggling operations for months. This Turkish support for the rebel fighters in Syria has been responsible for thousands of deaths. It is clearly Turkey who is the aggressor, not Syria. This being the case, it is hard to see how NATO can justify acting on behalf of its own members when they are the aggressor. IF Turkey was innocent and Syria attacked it, NATO would already be bombing Syria. That it is not shows who’s really to blame!

2.  It is clear that Turkey sent its fighter plane into Syrian airspace deliberately. This may have been an act of provocation which would be used to justify military aggression on Syria later on, but also an attempt to test Syria’s air defenses. Although the result may have scared Turkey and NATO, which now see that Syria’s air defense systems are formidable enough, which would make any air assault on Syria a huge gamble.

The last scenario may have led NATO to rethink its Syrian position. Yes, the US still wants to enact regime change in Syria, but may be trying to do it in a less direct way, without the use of air power which is vulnerable to Syrian defenses.

Recently, the US and its lapdogs met in Geneva with representatives from China and Russia to try to come up with a solution. There is now talk of a transition period where some kind of a power-sharing agreement will be worked out and members of the current Syrian government will govern alongside new reformist officials.

Russia has stressed that only the Syrian people can decide for themselves who they want to govern. The US seems to ignore this fundamental demand and has already jumped the gun by saying that Assad must go regardless of what happens, presumably even if he should win an election.

Killary Clinton and the US government are totally ignoring the fact that Assad has a lot of support in Syria. What is the US planning to do? Overthrow Assad and just ignore the multitude of people who support him, like they ignored the Iraqi military after overthrowing Saddam Hussein in Iraq? We all know how that turned out!

This latest agreement sounds too good to be true, because it is. Killary Clinton has already expressed the true US intentions by stating that if this plan does not work, Article VII of the UN Charter will be invoked. This article will give the UN permission for military action should the new plan fail.

Of course, while Killary signs this plan, she, along with the homicidal government she represents has absolutely no intention of respecting it. They will continue supporting the rebels with money and weapons. The rebel scum will commit more massacres, bombings, assassinations and mayhem, and then all the resulting deaths will be blamed of Bashar Assad. Then the US will announce that the transition plan is “not working,” and start bombing Syria for non-compliance.

I have said this before, and I shall repeat it again: The US has absolutely no intention of resolving the Syrian crisis (which it created) peacefully. The US has only one aim, which is to overthrown and kill Assad, destroy the Syrian military, the economy and its political system. Then the US will rebuild Syria from the ground up according to its interests and for its own benefit, using pro-US and Zionist puppets. The people whom the US cared so much about,  will be turned over to the US corporate elites and become irrelevant.  And if any of them dares to whine or confront the new US-installed government, they shall be accused of terrorism and being in league with Al Qaeda and stomped out with 500-punds bombs.

This latest proposal for a political transition in Syria is just another sneaky way to cajole Russia and China into unwittingly allowing a UN resolution which will allow an armed intervention in Syria.

This irrational and schizophrenic US behavior towards Syria and Iran is not all really about those two countries. It is just an indirect method for challenging and undermining Russia and China. This process is already under way, as domestic US sanctions have already forced Russia and China to curtail some of the dealings with Iran, and it is costing those countries dearly.

One thing that is beyond doubt to anyone who is educated about world affairs is that America’s escapades in Syrian and Iran have nothing to do with spreading democracy and freedom. If that were true, the US would crack down on its Saudi, Bahraini, and Qatari allies for massacring their own citizens. But this is not the case. Those regimes have been quietly encouraged and supported by the US in their human rights abuses since they faithfully serve American economic, corporate and military interests.

The majority of Americans are too stupid to see this, but make no mistake. The people who are being injured and killed by their own governments as a result of this criminal US hypocrisy see it well.

This US policy towards Iran and Syria show how degenerate the US diplomatic corps has become. It no longer negotiates but threatens. It no longer compromises but bribes. It exaggerates the lack of freedom in other nations and at the same time it exaggerates the amount of freedom in the US itself.
