The Syrian Conspiracy

The hysterical and farcical shrieking of the US government and the western media regarding the events in Syria have been nothing short of preposterous, and a tour-de-force of US hypocrisy.

This hypocrisy and kookiness has recently been highlighted at the UN after Russia and China vetoed the latest US-created Syrian Regime Change Resolution. Susan Rice, the UN representative from Dementia (USA), called Russia and China’s vetoes “disgusting,” and stated that these countries are allowing Syrian civilians to die at the hands of a brutal regime.

But when Palestinians and Lebanese are killed by Zionist bombs, the US “stands with Israel,” and has no moral qualms whatsoever in vetoing any UN resolutions calling for a stop to the massacre of civilians by a hostile foreign state. The US also has no moral dilemmas when it comes to the Bahraini, Yemeni and Saudi government crackdowns on truly peaceful protesters. It refuses to condemn these governments, protects them at the UN and elsewhere, and even sells them tear gas and weaponry so they can more effectively subdue and crush their own citizens desire for self-determination.

When listening to the US media talk about Syria, the hypocrisy and bias against the Syrian government is so strong, that it starts to contradict itself. This morning, I heard some BBC correspondent say on NPR that the constitutional referendum announced by Syrian President Bashar Al Assad is “laughable,” and “will not work.” CNN also has news stories where a US state dept. spokeswoman derides it as irrelevant and that nothing but Al Assad giving up power and stepping down as President will do.
The Arab League has shown itself to be a faithful accomplice to the violence which the US has unleashed in Syria. The vast majority of the AL members are autocratic tyrants who dismissed any calls for change in their own countries, shot at their own people, forbid any demonstrations, and in the case of Bahrain, sent police into hospitals so they could drag  out injured protesters and place them under arrest. Those doctors who refused to let them do so, were also arrested and beaten. So how can these damn hypocrites sit there and issue injunctions and edicts for Al Assad to resign and openly state that they will support the rebels with arms? What is these sheikhs agenda? Judging by their ideologies and actions it is certainly NOT democracy and freedom. If this were the reasons, these sheiks would leave Syria alone and start reforms at home and change their own sorry asses first and foremost!
It is very plain to see that the US and its lapdogs in the west and in the AL will NEVER go along with anything which may bring about a peaceful resolution in Syria. The US does not want a peaceful resolution, effectively going against the majority of the Syrians, who do. The US, along with its western and Arab sheikh puppets created these fake Syrian Transitional Councils and the “Free Syrian Army,” whatever that is, and are arming them with money and weapons in order to overthrown Al Assad. These US-sponsored “opposition” groups are fakes. They are made up of sectarian fanatics, corrupt ex-Syrian government officials who have been dismissed for corruption and other crimes, and now have an axe to grind, and foreign mercenaries.The west has exploited the street protests in Syria by using them as a cover for regime change, just like in Libya.

The importance and effectiveness of these rebels has been exaggerated by the western media, as has the gravity and scope of the so-called “atrocities” supposedly committed by the Syrian government forces. These fake, western created and sponsored Syrian “freedom” fighters” are the only source of information (read disinformation) used by western media about what it going on in Syria. They are disseminating lies, exaggerations and out-of-context stories, images and videos. To say that these reports are biased is an understatement. The western media faithfully swallows all this rebel bunk and also refuses to report the many acts of violence, terror, bombings and murder perpetrated by these rebels upon Syrian civilians and security forces. They do not want people to know the inconvenient facts about their so-called freedom fighters. They don’t want people to know that the death of the French journalist last month was caused by rebel mortar fire. They don't want people to know that foreign snipers are operating in Syria, shooting at civilians and Syrian police and soldiers. Don't believe this last piece of information? Watch the video below:

How many of these people are currently in Syria causing havoc and provoking the Syrian forces? How many more attacks on civilians and soldiers have been deliberately carried out by the rebels and these criminals from the outside and then conveniently blamed on the Syrian government? Most likely quite a few!

By creating these fake rebel and opposition groups, the US has taken the world’s eye off the legitimate opposition groups in Syria, and has effectively made them irrelevant. Why? Because those groups do not want to play along with the US-dictated scenario. These legitimate opposition groups have already stated that they are against violence and against foreign intervention. They want to settle their problems peacefully through dialogue with Al Assad. This does not mesh with US interests, which don’t merely want the overthrow of Al Assad. They want him dead and his government crushed, so that they can install a pro-US puppet regime. A peaceful outcome will not give the US and the Zionist criminals the desired outcome, only a violent one will, just like in Libya. Muammar Gaddafi’s death was not a fluke; it was not just an act of savagery by some hot-headed rebels. It was a premeditated act, planned from the beginning by the US/NATO criminal command that Gaddafi must be killed, and so he was.

The same NATO/US/EU orders stand for Bashar Al Assad. These western assholes don’t care that sectarian strife will plague the country if they succeed. Iraq’s Christian communities have been decimated by Islamic extremists after the US “liberation.” It looks like the US is readying the same scenario for Syria’s Christians as well.  This one example illustrates the chaos, death and misery that awaits Syrians if the US has its way in that country. And to add insult to injury, the Iraqi refugees who are in Syria, who escaped the US war crimes in their country years ago, are set to be given a 2^nd dose of US/NATO violence almost 10 years later. Is this what the west and the Arab League wants?

Thankfully, Russia and China stepped forward and put their foot down. This is very crucial, because without a UN resolution, the US/NATO criminal cartel cannot attack Syria and enforce their rotten “regime change,” –oops…”Responsibility to Protect,” which is their newest excuse and cover for overthrowing governments who don’t want to take orders from the US.  This theory, R2P as it is officially called, is supposed to mean that the international community (read the west), has a right to intervene in any country where “human rights” are being violated and “genocide” is taking place.

Of course those people who are being shot at by US-friendly dictators and Zionist occupiers are not covered by this new enlightened theory.

What is going on in Syria is not a real revolution. It is a fake violent uprising which is being led, funded and instigated by the US and their allies against a government which is free of their economic, political and military control, just like Libya and Iraq were. The pathetic western media are deceitfully peddling self-serving rebel propaganda which does not withstand scrutiny. They are exaggerating the events in Syria and making them look much worse than they are.

Faced with broken economies, polarized and tired societies, and a graveyard of economic and social contradictions, the US and the EU are desperately trying to hold on to their power. To do so, they are sacrificing the livelihood and lives of their own citizens in order to take away the livelihood and lives of people in other countries.  

If the US cares so much about Syria, and abhors violence against civilians, then why does it fund , arm and encourage the goon squads which are killing people and provoke the Syrian security forces? If the US cares about the Syrian people, then why does it not let them decide their own future in a peaceful and democratic way?If the US does not want to see Syrian civilians die, why does it ignore any attempts by Al Assad, Russia and anyone else to end the violence and end this chaos peacefully? It seems that the more accommodating and reasonable Al Assad and the Syrian government try to be, the more recalcitrant, angry and violent the rebels and their scummy sponsors become. Strange behavior for people who just want freedom, democracy and peace.
The reason for this psychopathic behavior is that the US governing elite does not care about the Syrian people, not even its own.  They only cares about their economic, military and strategic interests and the subordination of every nation's economy to the US neo-liberal failed free-market hokum. The rest is just cheap propaganda and demagoguery.

The Syrian people must be left alone to decide their own future in a peaceful matter, free of foreign interference, violence and deceit. The most that the world can do is help them organize free elections so they can pick their next leader. If Al Assad happens to win, then so be it.

Meet the Candidates!

Look at the characters above. They all look silly and abnormal, except for one.

This little picture banner represents the choices that Americans have for President this year.  I left out certain long-shots who are polling way behind or are just too much of a waste of space to mention (i.e.-Michelle Bachman).

I know that I am repeating myself, but when I look at the “viable choices” that are offered for President this year, on both sides, I cannot help but feel revulsion. Where do they find these people? Where do they come from?

Let’s take a look at each of these “viable candidates” which are being offered up as choices by the powers-that-be this election year.

1.       Mitt Romney

What is his claim to fame and to the presidency? That he’s a successful businessman. Yeah, that’s right! Because that’s all that matters when you run for President of the US: that you are a “good businessman.”

Someone needs to tell Old Mitt that there is a lot more to it than being a good businessman. You see, there are a lot of people out there who are not businessmen, and who don’t have millions of dollars like Mitt does.

A while back Old Mitt setup a company named Bain Capital. Their job? To buy up companies and sell them off, resulting in many lost jobs. When confronted with this, especially when he was campaigning in South Carolina where in the early 1990s his firm ended up putting thousands out of work in the city of Gaffney, he turns this around by saying that he created “A 100,000 jobs.” Oh yeah? But how many jobs did he kill? I bet more than 100,000. Remember this: Mitt’s job was NOT to create jobs, but to create profits, by whatever means possible.

Old Mitt reminds me of the movie “Other People’s Money” that came out in the early 1990s (a coincidence?) about a money-hungry corporate raider named Lawrence Garfield, played by Danny DeVito, who bought a cable & wire company, sank it, and sold it off,  resulting in lost jobs. This is pretty much what Mitt has been doing. But at least in the movie, the antagonist felt some guilt and remorse at the end, and there was even a happy ending (that’s Hollywood for you).  But Mitt feels nothing. It’s just business as usual, and there will not be any happy endings with him.  Ruining other peoples’ lives is a badge of honor for him, it seems. Maybe they should make a sequel to that movie but call it “Other Peoples’ Lives,” and get Mitt to write the script.

Mitt Romney is just another opportunist who is using lies and manipulation to go after more power and privilege. Just look at his face. It is not the face of an honest person. Look at those dark soulless voids that pass for eyes and that cheap salesman’s smirk. All that is missing are the words “I am a fake!” written in red across his forehead.

Mitt Romney made his fortune by taking away the livelihoods of others for more and more profits and privilege for himself. He will do the same when elected. He owns 6 houses, 6! This is while millions are pushed out of their homes. And to add insult to injury, a lot of these same people are considering electing this fraud.

Mitt Romney is just another ambitious a**hole millionaire who wants even more wealth and power, and who will not hesitate to walk over anyone he can to get it. The man has shown himself as a bulls*****r and he is seriously out of touch with the average working person. He lives in a world of privilege and comfort. He cannot relate to what the bottom 99% are feeling and going through. Just find some of his comments about the OWS protesters.  He does not really care about the average person. To him, these are just pawns and rubes to exploit for votes. After he gets their votes, he will sell these people out, just like all those people he sold after taking over companies while at Bane.

His views on foreign policy are also monstrous. He is all for bombing and invading other nations who don’t feel like taking orders from the US, and thinks that defending Israel is some kind of America’s sacred duty, whatever the sacrifice. He is totally subservient to the MIC and the banksters which crashed so many economies. This is why he is being portrayed as “viable.” Yeah, but to who? Not the poor saps that are out of work or facing foreclosure.  Mitt has also blamed lazy welfare recipients and deadbeats for the economic crisis, instead of his Wall St. buddies, where the fault lies. To this day he still believes this. Mitt is the kind of guy who thinks that hard work=wealth. But if that were true, then the majority of Americans would be in the same income bracket as old Mitt.

He passes himself off as a moral person. But where’s the morality in ruining other peoples’ lives for profit, Mitt? Why can’t all these rubes out there see this? Maybe because Mitt keeps on spitting out cob-web-ridden myths of American exceptionalism, by telling them that America is number one, that America can do no wrong, and that America is the best and always right. This is the stuff that really works on dumbasses, it seems. I can give a lengthy list as to why, and where, America is no longer number one, or certainly is number one in all the wrong things, but that is a post for another day.

Mitt Romney is a very rich guy who does not have poor friends. For him, or anyone else to think that having lots of money gives them the right to be president, is just plain sociopathic. Let the millionaires vote for him if they want to.

It’s so typical of the MIC-Bankster cartel and their prostitutes in the media to offer up someone like Mitt Romney as the most electable candidate.  If he is elected, he will run the government like he ran his venture capital firm. Those retards at the bottom who elected him will definitely be left with a scorching case of buyer’s remorse for having bought Mitt’s BS. Mitt Romney needs to understand that government is NOT a business to be ran for the personal enrichment and benefit of himself and his wealthy cronies and campaign backers.

Mitt Romney is a very bad choice for President. His ideas are dangerous and ignore reality. He will wreak havoc upon this land.

Beware of this freak!

2.       Rick Perry

This nutty loon who is the governor of Texas is another unstable character. He is known to initiate public prayer-a-thons for all sorts of reasons, including a statewide prayer for rain after months of continuous drought.

He is a social conservative and in love with everything Israel. He hates Iran, Syria and any other country which does not want to take orders from the US and sell itself cheap to the corporate swine.

He is of course a millionaire, no doubt thanks to his belief in Jesus, who we all know only loved millionaires and was one too!

I am not going to repeat Perry’s beliefs because they are just a carbon copy of Mitt. This guy does not appear to be very smart and has waffled and dodged questions throughout his campaign. He is heavy on right-wing talking points and discredited propaganda but lighter than air when it comes to substance. He is another character who thinks that the “free-market” is sacred and must be nourished in every way it can (even by government), but that needy people who are struggling because of his bankster pals fraud and thievery are parasites and have to be forcefully removed from the government teat. But all that does is free up another teat for Goldman Sachs and Raytheon. To be fair, Mitt feels this way too.

Rick Perry; another wealthy, religious and self-righteous bigmouth loon whose grossly inflated ego has eclipsed his raisin sack of intelligence.

Beware of this nut as well!

3.       Newt Gingrich

Wow, I never thought I’d see this 5-times reheated pile of leftovers as a presidential contender, but here he is, once again true to his name and trying to slither onto the world stage.

Newt has been a hard-line right winger for a while. In 1994, he led the Republican Party to recapture both houses of congress, in what was dubbed the “Republican Revolution.” After that, Newt unveiled his “Contract with America” and went after everything non-republican and caused a fiasco. The Republican congress accomplished nothing with their plans and Newt left in disgrace.

He has espoused dangerous ideas and made comments which show an approaching senility/dementia. He has recently stated that the Palestinians do not exist, countering thousands of years of history. Yeah, he was pandering to the Israeli lobby in order to garner votes, but to deny the existence of an entire population is just way over the top. I hope he was not serious!

Newt passes himself off as a moralist, even though he has cheated on his first wife and been divorced. He also converted to Catholicism to marry his 2^nd wife (the one he had an affair with).

He is also for militarism and bombing any nation which does not want to take orders from the US and which is hesitant to sell itself and its people cheap to the highest western corporate bidder.

Newt is another washed-up and bad choice. Stay away from this one. Voting him in would not be good for anyone’s mental health.

4.       Barack Obama

This one needs no introduction, so I will go straight to the point.

He swore he would be for the little guy; he swore he will end corporate and financial thievery and corruption; he swore he will end the wars; he swore he will bring hope and change to America.

What has he done?

Right after he won election in 2008, he got rid of his progressive advisers and replaced them with banking industry cronies and war hawks. His rapprochement with the Muslim world and Iran have been frauds, as we can see with his contempt for the Arab Spring in those countries where compliant US-approved dictators and sheiks rule.

His attempt to mend fences with Iran was also fraudulent, as he appointed Dennis Ross, a pro-Israeli Zionist hawk, to be his representative to Iran. It was like a fox sending a weasel to the chicken coop to tell the chickens that they should all be friends. Now, Obama is threatening Iran with attack, and has been ordering clandestine missions into Iran in order to destabilize the country and soften it up for “regime change.” All this is done under the cover of falsely accusing Iran of developing nuclear weapons.

Obama has shown himself to be dishonest and opportunistic. He has signed off on every bankster-inspired plan to rob the many to give to the few. He threw some peanut shells to the rabble in order to shut them up in the form of an extra $20 per pay check and some half-baked economic stimulus which ended up not doing that much good. In return, he has cut money from Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security. There have been no tax cuts. What there was, and continues to be, is a tax transfer. Those people who are on Medicaid will know what I am talking about, as their co-pays have either have gone up or have appeared for the first time when they take their kids to the doctor. This is one of the many sneaky things that have been done so that the banksters can have their bailouts. Obama promised to help struggling homeowners stay in their houses and help renegotiate their loans. But the homeowner assistance program has been an abject failure and has allowed the banksters to amass even more government money, while leaving the homeowners out in the cold.

Recently, Obummer has signed into law the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), allowing him, and any future US president, to arrest or assassinate people who are deemed not only a threat to America, but who so much as say or do anything to threaten any perceived American interest. Americans can also now be arrested and held indefinitely or even assassinated if they are deemed, for any reason, to be a security threat. The proponents of this law point to a line that seems to exempt American citizens from the law’s provisions, but when the law is read further, it becomes clear that no one is exempt. And the list of what constitutes a “security threat” has been expanded. Now, anyone who protests a war, or who says or shows any empathy or support, even non-material, to anyone whom the US government designates as an enemy, is now subject to this disgusting law’s provisions.

The US is becoming Stalinist Russia. Just like the Soviet government at that time, the US government will leave you alone as long as you sit down and shut up and do not criticize the government’s decisions or its leadership. The moment you do, you are considered a threat to public order and the safety of the homeland and are “brought in.”

Obama, in order to placate the rubes, even put a signing statement saying that he finds this law’s provisions troubling and may not abide by them in order to preserve the ideals and protections that made America great.

Shit! Don’t cry those crocodile tears, Mr. Obama! Why the hell did you sign it, if you see it as a threat to “American laws and ideals?”

What a two-faced hypocrite!

I never thought that the day would come for me to say this, and frankly, I hoped it never would. But unfortunately, the day has come for me to say what was considered sacrilegious just a few years ago: Barack Obama is even worse than George W. Bush. Not only has Obama continued the rotten and illegal policies and practices of his dim-witted predecessor, but he has made things even worse.

Why isn’t anyone challenging Obama from within his own party? Are the rest of the Democrats that scared of him? Do they really think that Obama is so great that no one needs to challenge him? Why the hell are the democrats even having a presidential convention this year when no other candidate is up for consideration besides Obama? It seems like a waste of peoples’ time and money to me.

Obama is a liar at worst and a coward at best. He let the freaks which ruined this nation have virtually anything they wanted and did not stick to his promises and principles. As a result, the US is even worse off today than it was in November of 2008.

Obama has failed those who counted on him and proved that he is no better that the warmongering monkey who came before him.

Do not vote for this fake, again!

5.       Ron Paul

There is a reason why that picture banner above presents the first 4 candidates as ridiculous and comical, and only shows one candidate’s real picture.

This is so, because Ron Paul is the sanest choice that Americans can make in this presidential election. It is because he is the real deal. He does not sell himself to the highest bidder and goes whichever the popular winds blow.

He is the only one who sticks to the law and his principles, and this has both the Republican and Democratic Party machines nervous. If there is one thing which the powers-that-be and their whores in the media and in corporate halls cannot stand and seriously fear, is a candidate that sticks to the law and does not allow themselves to be corrupted.

I do not agree with Ron Paul 100% on every issue, but he is sticking to the constitution and the law on principle, and is not letting himself be frightened away by the establishment’s bullhorns and has the courage to stand his ground. This is admirable.

Because of his refusal to be just another corrupt front-man, he has been ridiculed and ignored by the mainstream media. There are many instances where Ron Paul polled ahead of the other favored contenders, but was ignored.  Pundits also called him “out of touch” with the mainstream on foreign policy.

It is Ron Paul’s stance on foreign policy where he really shines. Ron Paul wants a non-interventionist foreign policy. He wants to liquidate the US Empire of bases and cut all defense spending beyond what is necessary for simple defense. He wants to do away with bloat and waste and foreign misadventures. He wants to leave Iran, Syria and other nations alone. He wants the US to stop threatening and provoking other nations and leaders and leave them alone.

If this is out of touch with the mainstream, then I say that the mainstream is out of touch with reality. In this reality, .52 cents out of every tax dollar goes to defense spending. In this reality, tens of thousands of soldiers have committed suicide and have suffered mental disorders as a result of being sent to fight in useless and illegal wars. In this reality, a million Iraqis are dead and millions more displaced within Iraq and surrounding countries.

Ron Paul knows that America’s aggressive foreign policy and military overreach is creating hatred and enemies against the US worldwide. And because of these wars and military overextension, the country is broke.

I read a newspaper article where the writer says that Ron Paul is considered the “crazy uncle in the attic” by the Republican establishment. This is BS. I say that Ron Paul is the wise old Uncle who is trying to tell his immature and foolish nephews what is right. But the nephews are too stupid to take his advice.

Ron Paul is the sanest choice of all these contenders for president. His popularity, especially among young people, independents and even democrats has been high. He is one of the top contenders, but listening to the establishment media hacks, you’d think Ron Paul is #10

Watch for Obama and his election year machine to scare democrats who want to jump the fence and vote for Paul being scared away from him with stories that Ron Paul wants to take away their Medicare and Social Security. Also watch for the Republican Party try to scare people away from Ron Paul by calling him soft on terror and weak on defense and make up scary scenarios of Iran terrorizing the US if Ron Paul gets elected. But do not be fooled.

Ron Paul knows the facts. He takes every opportunity to make them be known. He knows what has to be done, and his ideas have been proposed by others for a very long time, like his attitude against the federal reserve, whose time has long come to be gotten rid of.

If the US does not put this man in office, then it means that the vast majority of the US electorate are dunces. If the US electorate cannot seriously consider Ron Paul for the office of President, then they have a lot more growing up to do.

So don’t be like this guy:

I urge you all to support Ron Pau and give him a chance. Not everyone will agree with him 100% on all the issues; heck I don’t, but there is more than enough for me to agree on. This certainly cannot be said of Mitt, Rick, Newt or Obummer who just lie and manipulate their way to the top.

So when you see these presidential contenders on TV, remember that banner at the top of this page, and when you see them speak, match their names with the ridiculous characters on those pictures, because that is exactly what they are, ridiculous, (except for one).

Revolutions and Contradictions

It seems that the evil empire is continuing on with their global mayhem. Their criminal attack on Libya has emboldened them to repeat the same strategy in Syria and they are now beating the war drums against Iran.

From the beginning of the so-called Arab Spring, it was very evident that the regimes which were seeing the worst protests were the ones which the US supported. With the loss of Egypt and Tunisia, the empire was caught off-guard. It quickly needed to come up with a counter attack and regain lost ground. It was too late, and too risky, to brand all Tunisian and Egyptian protesters as “terrorists” and being in league with Al-Qaeda, so they turned their attention elsewhere, Libya and Syria.

The US used, and continues to use the Arab Spring and pro- democracy protests  to instigate, provoke and support rebellions in Arab countries whose leaders and governments the US and the west cannot control and exploit. The first victim of this new strategy was Libya and the government of Muammar Gaddafi. From the beginning, false atrocity stories, tales of mass-rapes and massacres flowed out of the mouths of US-supported rebels and their western-funded and controlled sock puppets.  This atrocity propaganda was used as an excuse for foreign intervention and regime change.

NONE of the atrocity stories have EVER been backed up by genuine evidence, and NONE of the eyewitnesses have EVER been questioned and their stories corroborated. As a matter of fact, the ex-al-Qaeda chief who became the rebel commander of Tripoli has admitted that these stories were made up and that there is no evidence and never will be. As they say, truth is the first casualty of war.

Now Libya is once again a colonial possession. No, there will be no foreign troops goose stepping on Libyan soil, and there will be no viceroys appointed by some western capital to govern the country. The occupation will be economic and diplomatic. The future government of Libya will be bought off so that it remains loyal to the US and their allies. In return, Libyan oil and other natural wealth and assets will be given away dirt cheap to western corporations and Libya’s people will slide into destitution and debt slavery.

Syria is now target#2. The US, together with their NATO lapdogs, flushed with success after their rape of Libya, decided to move right on to Syria with no interruption. Genuine demands for reform by peaceful demonstrators were exploited by enemies of Assad whom he sacked for corruption, as well as sectarian religious fanatics, and outside interests to foment violence and rebellion. A western-funded fake Syrian opposition council and human rights groups were created, both outfits funded by US government and western corporate money. Their job is to coordinate with the rebels and arm them so as to provoke the Syrian government into fighting. Once the Syrian government tries to restore order, they are accused of massacring peaceful protesters. From the beginning, false atrocity reports were peddled by the MSM in order to demonized Assad. But the deceit was plain to see. In some cases, demonstrations taking place in other countries were ascribed to Syria and Syrians who were watching their TVs in the cities where these protests were supposedly taking place were left scratching their heads after they looked outside and saw nothing. In the most recent case, Arab League observers were sent in after a report that the Syrian military was supposedly shooting at civilians in Homs. When they arrived, they saw nothing like this and there was no evidence of tanks shooting at people and buildings. The rebels hoped that the Arab League would play along and report fake atrocities as well, but there was a break in the chain of deceit and so the rebel groups and their backers were left with a credibility problem.

But that is why the Arab League was sent in: they are to be a Trojan horse whose role is to issue fake reports of atrocities and violence by Syrian government forces in order to create an excuse for foreign intervention. It remains to be seen what happens, but they will most likely lie and make things look much worse than they are in Syria under orders from Washington.

Stratfor, the private intelligence-gathering outfit, has admitted that the rebel-issued reports of atrocities and massacres and violence committed by Syrian government forces are not true or greatly exaggerated in order to get foreign countries to aid them and help and overthrow the Syrian government. I personally think that this statement is only half correct. Yes, the rebels and their front groups are lying and exaggerating. Most people support Assad and are not protesting. I don’t think that these rebels are acting entirely on their own when they tell these atrocity lies. They are told to make these stories up by their western backers. The US, France, UK and others are supporting these rebels with money, guns and training in order to overthrow the Syrian government. The rebels are a front group, just like in Libya.

Syria has a government which is nationalist, does not take orders from the US, will not let itself be exploited by western corporations, will not bow down to the Zionist state and is friendly with Iran. This the US cannot stand. What is being done in Syria by the west and their rebel front groups is a war crime. If Syrians are dying, they are dying because of US/western interference and provocations, not because of Assad.

The US tried to shove down another UN-sponsored resolution that would have imposed another no-fly zone on Syria and allowed them to bomb the country. Thankfully, Russia and China vetoed it. If there is a glimmer of hope, it is that the US, for all its bluster and deceit, cannot attack and invade any nation unless the UN rubber-stamps it. Without this rubber stamp, it cannot act because it would be liable to serious criminal charges. A UN resolution shields it from this possibility because it gives them the veneer of popular worldwide approval.

Iran has in the last month or so shamed the US. It has busted a CIA spy ring, electronically downed a sophisticated CIA reconnaissance drone and blinded a US satellite. This has caused much embarrassment to Washington.

In true fashion, the US now seeks to cover up these embarrassments by issuing threats of a military attack against Iran, sanctions, and has now accused it of helping to plot 9/11. But Saudi Arabia has been excluded from these accusations.  This shows how deranged and unstable the US ruling elites have become.

It is clear that Iran possesses weaponry and tools to make any US attempt at invasion and bombing very risky and will most likely end up with a lot of US military personnel dead and US bases/ships devastated by Iranian missiles. Iran is not Iraq.

Nevertheless, the same garbage that was peddled by the US government and the MSM 9-10 years ago about Iraq is now being regurgitated against Iran.  False accusations of Iranian attempts to assassinate a Saudi foreign minister on US soil, involvement in 9/11, trying to produce nuclear, biological and chemical weapons are now rising from the grave like zombies.  This is the same nonsense that was peddled about Iraq and Saddam Hussein back in 2002-2003.

The sad part is that the mainstream media, which should have learned their lessons from the Iraq debacle and the false intelligence that was peddled regarding that country, seems to have forgotten what happened. They are now enthusiastically pushing scary news stories about Iran being a danger without any shred of credible evidence to back up these accusations. They just take the US government’s word for it, just like they did with Iraq in 2003. It’s one thing for a government to force the media to tell lies and peddle false propaganda, but when a media freely and willingly does so, and self-censors itself, then that is much worse, for then there is no barrier for the lies and crimes which a government can tell and commit.

It is ironic that the US says nothing when Saudi Arabia shoots its own citizens, or Bahrain, or Jordan, or Egypt or when Saleh in Yemen orders brutal crackdowns on protesters. There are no calls for observers, no-fly zones, sanctions or UN resolutions. The most that government violence in those countries may elicit is a lukewarm appeal for calm on all sides, that’s it.

 Now, the forces which are trying to enslave the Arab world, are now up to their tricks in Russia. Putin and Medvedev have turned out to be too strong and must be gotten rid of. So US/western sponsored NGOs are now crying election fraud in order to bring Putin down and replace him with a compliant and corrupt drunk like Yeltsin, who will faithfully take orders and let the US do whatever they like with the world.

Countries like Russia and China need to use their political, military and economic leverage more effectively to force back the US. They must make it clear that interference in other countries affairs and threats of war will not be tolerated. It is time for Russia, China and others to band together and confront the biggest rogue state in history, the US, and let it be known that the “American Century” is over.

The People that Weren't

Newt Gingrich recently stated that the Palestinians are an “invented people.” In this, he was echoing the past Israeli Prime Minister Golda Meir, who once stated that there are no such people as the Palestinians.

Indeed, the denial of the existence of the Palestinians has been a major facet of Zionist policy and strategy. By denying the existence of the Palestinians, the Zionists seek to 1. Release themselves from accountability for the crimes which they have committed against the Palestinians and 2. Prevent the establishment of a Palestinian state, whose land the Zionists always wanted to steal in order to form their Zionist state. The Zionist theft of Palestine is, in fact, the biggest mass-theft of land in the last 100 years.

This theft and arbitrary confiscation of Palestinian land has NO LEGAL BASIS whatsoever. But when backed into a corner, the Zionists and their useful Christian Right idiots will always point to the definite authority that says otherwise: The bible. That’s all they have, and all they think that they will ever need; a promise made by a tribal Hebrew god, invented by Hebrew tribes, to the Hebrew tribes. Talk about a conflict of interest. It’s like me writing a self-signed contract giving myself ownership of my neighbor’s land, and when my neighbor asks what right I have to their land, I present my self-signed contract. It’s the same with the Jews and their “promised land.” But at least in my case, there is a contract. In the case of the Hebrews, it’s pretty much a verbal contract, with no signatures. This biblical claim has no legal or any kind of realistic value. Any sect can make claims on the basis that it was promised to them by some god. It's not hard to do. And unless a certified and genuine copy of a contract, signed by god and a representative of the Hebrew Jewish tribes is found, then the Jews have no case.

Never mind that the entire region known as Palestine is named after the Philistines, the people whose land the Hebrews were promised (supposedly), and who were already living there when the Hebrews arrived. So the whole thing about the Palestinians being an “invented people” and a “non-existent people,” is a neo-colonial myth, perpetuated in order to legitimize a blatantly violent and illegal theft of land.

But there ARE an invented people residing in Palestine. These people call themselves "chosen," and claim their lineage from the biblical Hebrews, which in fact they are not. These people are the so-called “Jews” of the state called Israel. Below is a short story of their true beginnings.

From 652-1016AD, There existed a medieval kingdom named Khazaria. It was inhabited by a Turkic nomadic people who migrated from Asia and settled in the area of Southern Russia, in the area which today comprises the nations of the Ukraine, Russia, Kazakhstan and Georgia. 

These people were warlike plunderers and controlled other tribes which lived around them. In return for protection, and a guarantee that they not be attacked, these tribes paid a tribute to the Khazars, or what can be called protection money. But as time went on, the Khazars found themselves caught literally in the middle between two civilizations, Christianity to the North and Islam to the South. Weighing their options, the Khazar leadership decided to adopt an official religion. They received missions from the representatives of both Christian and Islamic sects, but decided that both were a liability. If the Khazars convert to Christianity, the Muslims will try to invade them. If they convert to Islam, the Christians will try to invade them. So, in a move of historic proportions, the Khazars decided to adopt Judaism as their official religion. This way neither the Christians nor Muslims could harass them, as they were seen as neutral. Not every Khazar was a Jew though. Christian and Muslim Khazar converts lived in the Khazar realm. But because the royal family adopted Judaism, the majority of their subjects followed suit.

It is from the Khazars that the vast majority of modern Jews are descended from. It is from the Khazars that they get a lot of their customs, religious beliefs and behaviors, not the biblical Hebrews as is believed.  It is from the old Khazar language, with some Hebrew and Slavic mixed in over time, which gave birth to the Yiddish language. It is also why there are so many Jews in Eastern Europe. The Pale of Settlement, which was the region of the Russian Empire within which Jews were permitted to live and not leave, came into existence. It was formed after the Khazar kingdom fell apart and many of its Jewish converts migrated west and started dispersing throughout Russia.

From there, the converted Jews spread into the Ukraine, Poland and other Eastern European countries. In fact, some of these Jewish Khazar communities still exist today.

In 1948, these converted Khazar Asiatic Jews colonized and stole from the Palestinians their land and created an artificial nation, maintained by the myth that this is the Jews ancestral home. This claim is false. The modern Jews ancestral home is the Russian steppes, the Caucasus region, and Eastern Europe.

But tell a Jew today about this and they will deny it, and they will label anyone who dares to suggest that they are not the descendants of Hebrews as an anti-Semite, a Jew hater and a bigot. They will call you another Adolf Hitler.

But the Khazar origin of the modern Jews is a fact. Of course the Jews today will deny it, for obvious reasons. If this was known to the world, the Zionists claim to Palestine will be null and void and will be seen as fraudulent, and therefore the state of Israel will have no legitimacy. The Zionists will not allow this to happen. They will seek to demonize and destroy all those who dare to raise this inconvenient historical fact.

As a matter of fact, there are no real ethnic Hebrews left in Palestine, let alone the world. Whatever Hebrews there were in Palestine intermarried, converted to other faiths and became virtually indistinguishable from other people living in Palestine over the centuries. The original Jews, who have lived in Palestine for ages, are different from the fake European Jews of Khazar ancestry. Their customs are not the same and they do not follow the same teachings. I bet that most people in the world never met a real Jew, only Khazar European converts. Just being a Jew, which is a religious label anyways, does NOT magically bestow a Hebrew lineage on anyone. The modern Jews who came from Europe are not descended from Hebrews. They are Jews by religion only and have no racial connection to the ancient Hebrews.

So, Mr. Gingrich, it is the modern Jews that are an invented people and who racially and historically do not belong in Palestine and have no claim to it. The Palestinians have been there in one form or another since time immemorial. They are real and they are there to stay.

EUseless!

So the Great Big European dream is over.

Massive trade imbalances and borrowing have finally brought the EU racket to a close. How did things get this bad and ruin a dozen countries in the process? Same that ruined the US economy: GREED.

The EU was a misconceived idea from the start. It was based on a false premise that when the economies of Europe unite, it will lead not only to economic unity but prosperity for all as well. But it was a futile experiment dreamed up by bankers for more profits.

From the beginning the EU idea ignored certain realities that led to the collapse of the EU in all but name. First, it was based on exploitation and greed. Wealthy western countries used the weaker and poorer member nations as a dumping ground for their products and services, resulting in the destruction of national industries of those countries in the process. Those who were foolish enough to adopt the Euro saw their economies tank and some are bankrupt.

The idea that all these countries, with their different experiences, mentalities, systems, economies, resources and mutual historical enmities, which have not yet been forgotten much less forgiven, could come together as equals under a one-size-fits-all EU formula for prosperity was a grave miscalculation.

A bunch of these countries spent 50 years or more behind a different system, one that was ideologically and operationally opposed to the current neo-liberal free-market model which has been foisted upon them.  To think that centuries of wars, hatred and suspicion can just be glossed over with money is a bad assumption.

Now, defective US-inspired economic models have wreaked havoc across the EU and decimated economies. Politicians in the EU parliament attend fancy conferences and summits, get healthy per-diems and salaries in return for selling their nations out to the highest bidder.

Brussels has become a career-furthering cesspool of ambitious politicians and businessmen seeking to add to their wealth and prestige, instead of a place where sane policies are made and problems are solved. The EU government and bureaucracy have now degenerated into a carbon copy of the Washington culture. 

Money, wealth and cronyism now rule as the primary motivators of the EU governing elite. They have cast their lot with the banksters who are fleecing the world and turning it into a plantation. Look at what has been going on in the wake of the Greek and Italian economic crises: Both nations are now led by ex-ECB/Goldman Sachs bankers. These people have been appointed by Brussels not by national elections. And they will most likely stay in their posts one way or another, doing the bidding of private bankster elites, the people be damned!

The EU would have been a nice idea if it was truly based on European solidarity as the primary reason.  It would have been a great idea if the EU members would have come up with a separate and sane alternative economic model, as opposed to the predatory speculative capitalism and profit-above-all else nuttery of the US. It would be a model where the wealthier nations help the poorer ones develop their economies to where they could then compete, instead of destroying these countries industries and then flooding their markets with cheaper subsidized goods while the national producers suffer.

A true EU would not tolerate the isolation and bullying of nations such as Serbia or Belarus but would work with them, instead of sanctioning and threatening their governments and people. A true EU would pay no mind to disgusting and divisive US plots to keep the rest of Europe and Russia in a state of mutual suspicion and fear.

It would have been a great idea if the EU would also formulate its own independent foreign and military policy, leave the NATO auxiliary army and stand as a rational alternative to US militarism and aggression throughout the world.

But the truth is that Europe is beholden to the US and to its economic, foreign policy and military policies and interests. Major economic decisions are deferred to the US and the EU still tags along as a mercenary force on any and all US misadventures, such as in the recent imperial escapade in Libya. No official ever says anything against this. No official ever dares to suggest that this is not right, that it undermines Europe’s security, and that it must change.

It makes one wonder what amount of trade, revenue, opportunities and advancements Europe lost out on in the last 15-20 years because it subordinated itself to US whims. It would most likely be a staggering number.

That this is the sad case shows that there is something foul going on in the background. Taking into account the staunch opposition by some EU members, notably Germany and France, against the Iraq invasion in 2003, shows that these individual countries understand what is wrong and right. And yet later they decided to go with the flow and defer life and death decisions to the Washington war criminals.

It is safe to say that these countries are being blackmailed and threatened by the US or someone else. What have they been told? What are they so scared of?

The EU is a sham. It is based on false premises, ignorance of reality and disrespect for each nation’s sovereignty and self-determination. In fact, the current EU structure seeks to deprive member nations of these invaluable assets. Now, it is taking it a step further by demanding stricter and tighter monetary policy, which will most likely force any EU member that has not yet adopted the Euro and still have a functioning economy, to suffer for the bad policies, thievery and greed of others. And if any nation refuses, they will be bankrupted by the EU overlords and their economies will be shattered.  This is starting to happen right now.

Any nations which aspire to EU membership should count their blessings that they are not yet members. Furthermore, these crises must serve as inoculation for any nation which seeks to join. The economic mess and disorder which pervades the EU currently should be a turn-off for any country, since they can plainly see what they can expect once in the EU club. Any leader/government which ignores these colossal failures of the EU and still intends to join is an idiot and a traitor. Such a leader must be done away with ASAP. They must also know that if they join the EU right now, their national economies and peoples will be plundered wholesale in order to pay back a bunch of private banksters for their investment losses.

This EU economic chaos should also be a warning for those nations that are already members but who have not yet adopted the Euro. It would be wise for these nations to resist the adoption of this rotten currency as well as to start making secret contingency plans for withdrawal from the EU. Any politician, in any EU member country which has not yet adopted the Euro who advocates for the adoption of this currency, must be gotten rid of ASAP, unless the national economies of those countries also go the way of Greece and Italy.

The poorer countries of Europe which are already members of the EU or strive to become members, must know that the EU is not the ticket to prosperity and modernity. By betting their entire future on EU membership is a recipe for disaster and economic enslavement. No nation has ever become wealthy and powerful by depending on other nations for their long-term livelihood. Look at any wealthy nation and you will see a history of ingenuity, self-reliance and hard work. This is what will make these nations great, not membership in some crooked bankers club bent on exploitation and thievery.

There are those who say that the EU is good because it is an alternative to the US and that it undermines US economic power, etc., etc. But in reality, it is just a European subsidiary of Global Bankster Inc.

Also, if the EU was a true and better alternative to the US neo-liberal system, then the EU would not be in the bad economic state that it is in now. It would have adopted a different economic model, establish its own markets and financial centers which would openly rival US-dominated ones, withdraw from US economic and military blocs and formulate its own policies, free from US influence.

That this is not the case shows that the EU is not an independent entity which serves, or could serve, as an alternative system. The EU is just an extension of the same rotten US neo-liberal free-wheeling-market system where anything goes. Tim Geithner is busy making loans and guaranteeing EU paper, courtesy of the US taxpayers and the Federal Reserve. This says it all.

Now the EU technocrats are demanding that individual member nations give up sovereignty and the right to choose their own policies and leadership in order to keep the EU leviathan alive past its shelf life.

This whole EU experiment begs the question of who does this union really serve? Who really control it? Why are nations being subordinated to unelected officials in Brussels? Why are the people being sidelined and silenced?

Something very sinister is going on. Those nations who are not yet in the EU, beware!

Controllers, Managers and Front-men

The ‘election’ season’ is upon the United States and the various caucuses and primaries are under way. Obama, as well as the other assorted Republican Party fruit loops are all scrambling to out talk, out promise and out spend one another, and of course to swear their eternal fealty to the gangsters which rule zionistan.

Frankly, the election process in the U.S. has become such a dog and pony show, such a ridiculous farce that it is both sad and surprising to see all these people wasting their time on all these public gatherings to ‘support their candidates.’ The presidential election season has become just a big circle jerk, where the cretins are fooled and manipulated into spilling their collective nut of approval all over the candidates and the TV screens.

What these unfortunates who are wasting their valuable time and money on these lying prick candidates don’t seem to yet grasp is they are not the ones who end up choosing the president. All these caucuses, primaries, town meetings, apple pie and coffee klatches, conventions and the elections are just a farcical façade to make it look like the people actually have a voice in who becomes president when they really do not.

The process of electing the president of the United States is a carefully orchestrated, well choreographed and brilliantly executed song-and-dance; a fraud par excel lance! The people are included just to give the whole farce a veneer of popular support. The people are what can be called a necessary nuisance.

 But behind the scenes, there is a close alliance between the true controllers of the American political process who decide the presidency and the clever managers who ensure that the interests of the controllers prevail. The controllers are the real powers that run this country. They are the member-owners of the Federal Reserve, the big corporations, and the upper 1%. They are the ones who call the shots since they control most of the wealth of the United States. Each and every candidate is fully scrutinized by the controllers to ensure their loyalty to the American global free-market and military system. Any candidate that is less than 100% enthusiastic in pursuing the policies of the controllers, and shows too much intelligence and independence is filtered out and discarded into the memory hole during the election season cycle by the managers who act on orders of the controllers. Once the few remaining candidates have been carefully scrutinized and deemed 100% loyal, they are then allowed to run for top office, and the two top contenders for the Presidency are groomed by the managers (DLC and RNC) according to the personal whims of the controllers.

 Once the controllers pick their favorite candidates (via the super delegates), the election is on. Then the controllers just wait and chuckle for a few months as they watch the naïve population fall over themselves thinking that their preferences and votes actually matter, and then on queue, the controllers’ faithful lapdogs in the electoral college will elect the candidate that most pleases them. It is not a free election, but a process of elimination used by the elites to pick the most loyal front man who will best follow their orders.

Once the whole farce is over, the U.S. will end up with another corporate and military industrial complex friendly front man (or woman) who will do the bidding of the true masters of the nation whose money and personal approval has gotten them into the White House. There will be no end to the Iraq war, no universal healthcare and no ‘change’ as touted by Barack Obama or the demented republican coterie of crazies.

This whole electoral system is a ridiculous fraud. It is so rigged with arcane regulations and loopholes that it absolutely precludes the election of any candidate that truly wants to bring back some sanity to the way this country is governed and deals with the world.

Right now, the electoral system is hopeless and it will take a revolution to change it. If people keep on buying into this fraudulent electoral system and keep on feeding this corrupt beast with their time and money, nothing will change for the better and in the end the American people will be worse off. These candidates do not represent the average American family’s best interests. They represent the best interests of the wealthy elite that control most of the wealth of this nation. These candidates depend on corporate and special interest donations for their campaigns, so he who pays the piper calls the tune.

Many people who bothered to vote in the last election, and realized that they have been conned by Obummer, now know that they really can’t expect any better from any of these parties and many will not bother voting anymore. That is totally understandable when looking at the complete ineptitude and cowardice of the Democrats when it came to undoing the horrible blunders of the Bush Regime.

It is no secret, and in fact plain to all intelligent individuals, that the current political system in the United States is a sham. Every four years the populace is offered up candidates to elect, which have been thoroughly screened and scrutinized by private interests beforehand, to ensure their loyalty to the corporate leviathans and the American ‘free-market’ and military-industrial systems.

The candidates that end up being selected by the party-corporate alliance are the most crass, dishonest, manipulative and arrogant specimens that this system has to offer. They are not chosen by the people to represent the peoples’ interests. If this political system was really free and democratic then the choices for President would be significantly different.

As long as the people in the United States and their leadership insist that America is ‘special’ and ‘better’ and that it should exercise control over other nations through coercion and violence then the fundamental changes that NEED to occur to put the US back on the right path will not happen and this country will stumble from one disaster to the next.

These dishonest and corporate-bought front men cannot and will not change anything for the better. They will distract and manipulate the voters with wedge issues and fear. They expect the average voter to vote according to their own personal ideological whims and ignorance, not according to what’s best for everyone.

Making up fictitious enemies and threats to keep the populace scared and ignorant and easy to control will not work for long. Bad and dishonest economic policies will sooner or later come out of the dark hallways and boardrooms of Wall Street and Washington D.C. and wreak havoc, as is happening now with the mortgage fallout and the massive debts that have accumulated as a result of massive fraud and greed.

The elections are mostly all hype and pomp that is amplified to the max by the corporate controlled media. A lot of people know that this system is rigged and have lost faith in it.

It’s a system for, and by, the Controllers, the Managers and the obedient front men, not the people. This is what passes for ‘Democracy’ in America.

What is also a sad phenomenon, is that all the people who were against Bush and the Iraq war and the neo-cons evil foreign policy are strangely quiet when these same things are being pursued by Obummer. When confronted with this glaring similarity in policy, they even try to make excuses for Obummer’s war-mongering ways. It’s because he is bombing people to protect human rights, they say. Don’t these cretins see the contradiction in all this? These Obama supporters and their acquiescence and silence regarding Obama’s belligerent and murderous policies are just as wrong as the Bush supporters’ enthusiastic cheering of his illegal wars and deranged policies. There is no difference when it comes to the aims of both powers except that one bombs, kills and invades other countries to steal their resources in the name of fighting terrorism and the other bombs, kills and invades other countries to steal their resources in the name of protecting human rights. Either way, it is a damn evil racket.

When I watch what has been running for the republican presidential nomination, I cannot help but feel physically sick. With the sole exception of Ron Paul, the rest of the republican candidates are a truly revolting sight. Their dishonesty, ignorance, their myopic and condescending view of everything and everyone beyond their own interests, their plastic and fake and inbred looks and faces are a truly revolting sight to see. Their slavish paeans and deferments to zionistan and its gangster rulers is truly disturbing, as if they were being fed pro-zionist propaganda and hollow talking points directly by some Zionist shill backstage via a transmitter into a small receiver in their ear!

Their pathetic adherence to the sickening, discredited and condescending ideologies of “American exceptionalism”, triumphalism and cosmic uniqueness is truly sad. It is as if these people live in another dimension and cross over to our realm only during debate time. Where are these freaks and cretins from? Who spawned these unfortunate, inbred bumpkins? If there ever was any evidence that God makes mistakes and is not perfect, these mutants like Perry, Romney, Gingrich and Bachman should be exhibit A.

Certainly Obummer is no better. He has gladly and eagerly taken on the mantle of war criminal in chief and Wall St. lackey and has caused even more havoc in the world and with the US economy. He ran on hope and change and promised that he will do away with the Washington corruption and cronyism. Right after he was elected, he appointed big bank cronies and Wall St. operatives as his advisors. He promised to engage Iran but immediately appointed a staunchly pro-zionist Jew, Dennis Ross, for the job. It’s no wonder that the Iranians did not buy Obummer’s “good intentions.” Now with OWS protests tarnishing his image and exposing the corruption which he helped foster, he is turning into another impulsive jerk that is ready to cover up his crimes and lies with fear mongering propaganda and threats against other nations, most recently Libya, Syria and Iran.

Obummer is a failed con-man, and whatever creature follows him will be no better. But one thing is certain: Things will only get worse.
