Have I Mentioned Just How Stupid The "Weiner Bomber" Story Sounds?

I just started reading Justin Raimondo's piece, "The Lap Bomber Mystery" - I think you should, as well, dear readers.

After you're done, go take a look at the cover of the Daily News for today (Tuesday, December 29, 2009)...oh, what the hell...here you go:

What the hell?

What kind of RETARDS are the editorial staff of the Daily News that they would post this bloody picture of this idiot's underwear on their front cover?

I could do without seeing $#*!stains all around me as I go to work, you frickin' morons.

Yes...the New York Daily News showed everyone what a mess looks like in your shorts...what - you thought that brown stuff was PETN?

That, my friends, is the beginning of a Full Metal Jacket.

Actually, a co-worker mentioned this - the underwear seems to be strategically shaped in the form of an EAGLE.

Weird, isn't it?

Before you depart for greener pastures, dear readers, check out this posting from Natural News. Direct quote: "Prepare to laugh so hard your underwear explodes".

If you still aren't convinced, check this article at PrisonPlanet.

One more...and now the story smells like the fish in The Godfather.

Here's The News: "al-Qaeda" Is As Real As The Easter Bunny

So...what about this horsepuckey that the stupid Nigerian who somehow smuggled 80 grams of PETN past ICTS agents on Christmas claims he was trained by this organization THAT DOESN'T EXIST?

Hmmm...ICTS...don't I remember that name from somewhere...? Oh, yeah - they were airport security on September 11th, 2001.

R.I.P. Jonathan Ayers

Dear readers...you simply won't believe this story.

This grand jury should be locked up.

Thanks to Pete at DrugWarRant for the initial heads-up.

Updated with Slides - Lord Christopher Monckton Speaking In St. Paul Regarding "Climate Change"

Climate Change = Global Warming = Scumbaggery

Speaking of scumbaggery...I know that my blog does not allow for anonymous comments, that the comments left would be few and far between; but I have noticed a trend here, and at Greg Bacon's blog - a fantastic posting regarding Venezuela. I still fondly remember the 36 hours in April 2002, where the scumbags fell to the will of the people, and barely escaped with their lives...but I digress. What I noticed is that a number of cheesy porn links are embedded behind foreign characters.

Well...I don't know why you idiots are wasting your time. I have a real relationship, and I couldn't give a bloody damn about any stupid links you wish to proffer to my fellow bloggers or to myself. As I said before, I've DVDs still in their shrinkwrap, and maybe before I shuffle off this mortal coil, I'll take 'em for a spin; but let me make it bloody clear: I don't need your help in finding boobies on the internet; and I especially don't need nitwits trying to poison my cache with their sweatshop smut.

Then again...this could be one of the ball-less wonders from CounterKnowledge. Keep screwing around, taint-licker...you'll find yourself back on AOL chats before I'm done with you.

Oh, my stars and garters...look who's back in town - Dominik O. Suter.

Beating A Rotting Nag

Just a quick one tonight, dear readers. Hope the holiday season is greeting you with some modicum of joy.

I've a great couple of weeks ahead. I will pay it forward with my best wishes to you all.

So...look outside of your window. See that undeniable evidence of anthropogenic global warming?

I thought so.

Albert Gore is a lickspittle henchman of the scumbags already reaping rewards from their new derivative - Climate Change Credits.

Let's just be clear here - the Copenhagen conference was NEVER about actually doing anything about` the environment...because there's no bloody way to do it. Of course, we can all make an effort not to consciously and lazily add to atmospheric pollution, but not a sentence with this mindset was ever uttered even once during this conference.

This is all about gaming the system. This is nothing but a scheme to defraud nations and the people living within. The ClimateGate emails and texts should have put the lie to all of the grandiose glad-handing...despite their insistence that "hide the decline" actually didn't mean that the decline was being hidden. All of the nonsense about people opposed to "AGW" being the tools of Big Oil...do I seem like I'm a paid whore from Exxon/Mobil? Do I wear BP underwear? Fuck 'em - they're just another bunch of scumbags, raping us all for a renewable resource that they called "fossil fuel" until the work of Russian scientists was brought to the fore by the plagiarism of Thomas Gold. Read this in case David McGowan's pages aren't readily accessible.

Dear readers, here's the news: we're not going to run out of oil, unless we keep wasting it on bullshite wars like what's currently occurring.

Why are we in Afghanistan? Go no further than Mike Rivero's cogent analysis, replete with images of our soldiers standing uniform-deep in poppy fields.

Or is it that you couldn't give a fuck? Just shut up, pal; grab a beer, check out that fumble; why do ah need ta pay attenshun ta that crap? ah got mah teevee; ah got mah beer; ah got mah job...hey - pass me that phone...hello...whut? Whut do yah mean, the plant's shut down? It was releasing TOO MUCH CO2? Ah thut thet dang conference took care of all thet! Dang...ah knew thet glo-BULL wormin' was a bunch of horseapples...there's three feet of snow outside.

That's right...look outside, dear readers. You see an Earth warming out of control?

The only thing "out of control" are the avaricious appetites of the scumbags attempting to scam their way into your wallets by charging you for exhaling carbon dioxide...something that is part of our ecosystem. Plants require CO2 to LIVE. CO2 is part of the food chain, and is an integral part of the circle of life.

Haven't you heard scientists refer to humans as a "carbon-based life form"?

One last note - our drone camera feeds were hacked into by off-the-shelf software? Someone's head should fucking roll...of course, this idea is total bullshite. You guys better come up with a better tale than that.

Tiger By The Tail

The "Distraction Media" finally got their bloody wedge issue; Tiger Woods' infidelities.

I know more about Tiger's whores than I need to.

Tiger Woods has been recast as O.J. Simpson for this decade. His marriage has been laid bare for the last couple of weeks, and I'm appalled that Americans are falling for this obvious bit of scumbaggery. There are real issues of import; why does anyone care about this?

Let's boil this down to its basic element: here's a news story about a celebrity who cheated.

How is this news in this day and age?

Tiger - here's my appeal to you - don't fucking kill yourself; don't go off the deep end. This is not the end of your world; it is the end of everyone thinking that you were some sort of infallible icon...after all your accolades, you're just a man.

Deal with it.

I have a lovely girl, and I'll never cheat on her. I can say that absolutely, without reservation. Tiger should have been aware that these women were after his celebrity, not his person. Trust me...if I ever get famous or rich, I'll pay a bodyguard to fuck every groupie coming my way...he'll promise them that they'll get a piece of me, after he gets a slice...then, throw them bitches out on their asses!

What...are they going to say anything to anyone? "I tried to bang Lion Steel, but his bodyguard screwed me and threw my whore ass out?"

Hmm...actually, that might make great copy at the Post.

Oh...and a cautionary note to Elin...they will turn on you like sharks to chum...so don't think your peccadilloes aren't in the public domain...just wait until they get tired of you.

So...to add: Accenture (formerly Arthur Andersen...oh - did everyone forget?) is right to drop Woods from their advertising...Bernie Madoff is a much better figurehead. Imagine the balls of the scumbags who, along with Enron, dry ass-raped California for electricity.

Yes, that's right - Enron's former accountants don't think that Tiger Woods is a good spokesman.

More Tolerance, I See...NOT

Jewish terrorists torch West Bank Mosque, scrawl Nazi slogans
[ 11/12/2009 - 02:16 PM ]
From Khalid Amayreh in the West Bank

In what seems to signal an escalation of organized Jewish terror against Palestinians and their property, suspected Jewish terrorists on Friday torched a mosque in the northern West Bank .

Palestinians sources said armed settlers from a nearby settlement threw flammable substance inside the Hasan Khadr Mosque at the village of Yasuf near Salfit, 15 kilometers, south west of Nablus .

The incident occurred around 4:00 am, shortly before dawn.

The suspected terrorists also scrawled Nazis slogans in Hebrew, reading “revenge” and “we will burn all of you.” Other scrawls read “price-tag-greeting from Effi” Effi is a Hebrew name.

Yasuf local council head Abdul Rahim Musleh said the fire gutted the mosque’s interior, including the carpeted floor, numerous, numerous Qurans and as well as furniture..

The targeted mosque is the largest of four mosques in the village of 2000 inhabitants.

Munir Abbushi, the governor of the Salfit district, where the terrorist act took place, accused the Israeli government and army of encouraging the settler terrorists to attack Palestinians.

“The Israeli army is doing nothing to protect the Palestinians from the settler aggression. Army inaction encourages the settlers to escalate their terror against our people and holy places,” said Abbushi.

The head of the Israeli army’s so-called Civil Administration in the West Bank , Yoav Mordechai, condemned the torching of the mosque, saying he would see to it that the perpetrators are apprehended and brought to justice.

However, Palestinians doubt Israeli sincerity in combating organized Jewish terror carried out by settlers indoctrinated in extremist religious ideology advocating genocide against non-Jews.

Khalid Maali, a Palestinian journalist from Salfit, attributed the incident to repeated edicts, or religious rulings, by rabbis urging settlers to kill Palestinians and vandalize their property.

“These rabbis are saying in broad daylight that it is a mitzvah (good religious deed) to murder non-Jews and destroy their property. And these terrorist settlers are simply acting on and carrying out these edicts.”

Maali charged that the Israeli government and army were legitimizing settler attacks against Palestinians by failing to apprehend and punish terrorists involved in terrorist attacks.

“This is tantamount to encouraging them to commit more terror. When these terrorist are allowed to get away with impunity, the Israeli government is effectively telling them that you can attack Palestinians and torch mosques and have nothing to worry about.”

Reactions

The torching of the Hasan Khadr mosque has drawn angry reactions from Palestinian leaders on both sides of the Green Line.

Ahmed Teibi, a prominent leader of the 1.5 million-strong Arab community in Israel , who is also a Knesset member, held Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak responsible for this “sinful act.”

“By giving these thugs (Jewish settlers) a carte blanch to maraud and rampage throughout the West Bank , the Israeli army and government are effectively encouraging them to commit crimes against the Palestinians.”

He urged the occupation army to immediately put an end to settler terror and violence before the situation gets out of hand.

The league of Muslim Ulema or religious scholars in occupied Palestine strongly condemned the “sacrilegious act,” calling on the Palestinian Authority to stop stripping Palestinians of fire arms.

“The PA has stripped the people of their arms. Now we stand unable to defend and protect ourselves. And the PA security agencies are not allowed to repulse settler attacks as their only task is to fight the resistance fighters,” said league chief Sheikh Hamed al Beitawi.

Al-Beitawi, who is also an elected member of the Palestinian legislative council who has spent years in Israeli jails for opposing the Israeli military occupation, also denounced rabbis for issuing edicts to their followers, inciting them to murder Palestinians and vandalize their property.

“These rabbis call themselves men of peace, but true men of peace don’t incite to terror and hatred and bloodshed. Imagine how these rabbis would react if a Jewish synagogue was torched in London or in Paris. They would invoke the entire history of anti-Semitism from the Spanish inquisition to the Nazi holocaust.”

Settler leaders have repeatedly said they will attack Palestinians and their property every time the Israeli army moves to vacate settlers from illegal outposts. The threats have been carried out, with settlers attacking Palestinian farmers, especially olive-pickers, businesses and now mosques.

This is not the first time Jewish terrorists attack Muslim holy places. In 1994, a Jewish terrorist who had immigrated from the United States, riddled Muslim worshipers with bullets at the Ibrahimi Mosque in downtown al Khalil, killing 29 and injuring and maiming dozens.

The terrorist, Baruch Goldstein, who was eventually killed by survivors, became a saintly figure for right-wing Jewish fanatics who advocate the extermination, enslavement or expulsion of non-Jews from mandatory Palestine (the land between the River Jordan to the Mediterranean).

The Aqsa Mosque in al Quds has also been a constant target for organized Jewish terror since Israel occupied the city from Jordan in 1967.

Similarly, other mosques, both in the West Bank and pre-1948 Palestine, have been repeatedly vandalized and desecrated by supremacist Jewish groups seeking the extirpation of non-Jews from Palestine.

What a clusterfuck. I think that "turn the other cheek" adage is going to get real old, real fast.

In other news...Adam PEARLMAN, a.k.a. Adam Gadahn, a.k.a. "Azzam The American", has released an al Qaeda tape?

What what WHAT? A Jewish male purports to be a member of a made-up organization and releases a videotape warning America?

Let me try this on for size: Hey...I'm a member of the Lollipop Guild, and I'd like to welcome you to Munchkin Land!

Wow...so easy!

The Real Truth Behind Copenhagen

This info was provided by my pal, Juan (FU¢K "CHANGE")

Copenhagen climate summit in disarray after 'Danish text' leak - This is the real truth behind Copenhagen

The UN Copenhagen climate talks are in disarray today after developing countries reacted furiously to leaked documents that show world leaders will next week be asked to sign an agreement that hands more power to rich countries and sidelines the UN's role in all future climate change negotiations.

The document is also being interpreted by developing countries as setting unequal limits on per ca More..pita carbon emissions for developed and developing countries in 2050; meaning that people in rich countries would be permitted to emit nearly twice as much under the proposals.

The so-called Danish text, a secret draft agreement worked on by a group of individuals known as "the circle of commitment" – but understood to include the UK, US and Denmark – has only been shown to a handful of countries since it was finalised this week.

The agreement, leaked to the Guardian, is a departure from the Kyoto protocol's principle that rich nations, which have emitted the bulk of the CO2, should take on firm and binding commitments to reduce greenhouse gases, while poorer nations were not compelled to act. The draft hands effective control of climate change finance to the World Bank; would abandon the Kyoto protocol – the only legally binding treaty that the world has on emissions reductions; and would make any money to help poor countries adapt to climate change dependent on them taking a range of actions.

The document was described last night by one senior diplomat as "a very dangerous document for developing countries. It is a fundamental reworking of the UN balance of obligations. It is to be superimposed without discussion on the talks".

A confidential analysis of the text by developing countries also seen by the Guardian shows deep unease over details of the text. In particular, it is understood to:

• Force developing countries to agree to specific emission cuts and measures that were not part of the original UN agreement;

• Divide poor countries further by creating a new category of developing countries called "the most vulnerable";

• Weaken the UN's role in handling climate finance;

• Not allow poor countries to emit more than 1.44 tonnes of carbon per person by 2050, while allowing rich countries to emit 2.67 tonnes.

Developing countries that have seen the text are understood to be furious that it is being promoted by rich countries without their knowledge and without discussion in the negotiations.

"It is being done in secret. Clearly the intention is to get [Barack] Obama and the leaders of other rich countries to muscle it through when they arrive next week. It effectively is the end of the UN process," said one diplomat, who asked to remain nameless.

Antonio Hill, climate policy adviser for Oxfam International, said: "This is only a draft but it highlights the risk that when the big countries come together, the small ones get hurting. On every count the emission cuts need to be scaled up. It allows too many loopholes and does not suggest anything like the 40% cuts that science is saying is needed."

Hill continued: "It proposes a green fund to be run by a board but the big risk is that it will run by the World Bank and the Global Environment Facility [a partnership of 10 agencies including the World Bank and the UN Environment Programme] and not the UN. That would be a step backwards, and it tries to put constraints on developing countries when none were negotiated in earlier UN climate talks."

The text was intended by Denmark and rich countries to be a working framework, which would be adapted by countries over the next week. It is particularly inflammatory because it sidelines the UN negotiating process and suggests that rich countries are desperate for world leaders to have a text to work from when they arrive next week.

Few numbers or figures are included in the text because these would be filled in later by world leaders. However, it seeks to hold temperature rises to 2 degree Centigrade and mentions the sum of $10bn a year to help poor countries adapt to climate change from 2012-15.

This is great! Finally, there are those out there who are tossing more spanners in the works of the scumbags. Keep it up, people.

The Copenhagen Crime Fable Begins!

Yes! Today is the day that representatives from nearly 200 nations try to jam a lie down the world's collective throats; namely, the Copenhagen Climate Conference. Of course, we in the know are aware of something we like to call the ClimateGate Iceberg, or simply, the intercepted/planted email from the climate scientists from East Anglia.

Global Warming is a goddamned LIE, just in case you didn't get the memo.

A couple of things to keep an eye on...first order of business is

Monserrate sentencing could bring jail time
By Jeremy Walsh

Last Updated: 11:25 AM, December 3, 2009

Posted: 11:25 AM, December 3, 2009

Friday is a day of reckoning for state Sen. Hiram Monserrate (D-East Elmhurst), who faces up to a year in jail when he is sentenced for misdemeanor assault. But jail time is just one possibility for Monserrate, a first-time offender, former Marine and ex-NYPD officer.

Monserrate was convicted in October of recklessly injuring his girlfriend, Karla Giraldo, after a December 2008 fight in his Jackson Heights apartment. Monserrate is depicted on security camera footage dragging Giraldo away from a neighbor’s door as she holds on to the staircase and then the doorway of the apartment building in an apparent attempt to resist him.

The misdemeanor conviction could carry a sentence of jail time, probation, a fine or anger management classes, Queens District Attorney Richard Brown said.

Monserrate was acquitted of felony assault charges for allegedly slashing Giraldo’s face with a broken glass after discovering another man’s police union card in her purse. Monserrate and Giraldo have both claimed her injuries were accidental, incurred when he stumbled in the dark and spilled water on her, causing her to shoot upright in bed and collide with the glass in his hand.

His attorney, Joseph Tacopina, has said he will appeal the misdemeanor conviction.

In the meantime, Monserrate faces an uphill battle to cover hundreds of thousands of dollars in legal expenses and to build a war chest for his 2010 re-election bid.

The Albany Times Union reported Monserrate has established a legal defense fund based on a legal opinion issued for former state Sen. Efrain Gonzalez that differentiated between what was an improper gift and what would be considered a legitimate contribution to the fund.

The Queens Democratic Party has already endorsed state Assemblyman Jose Peralta (D-Jackson Heights) in the 2010 Democratic primary for Monserrate’s seat.

But the senator may not be in office that long. The state Senate is in the process of deciding whether it has the authority to expel Monserrate based on the conviction. Had he been found guilty of a felony, the senator would have been forced to resign. With the lesser charge in place, the Senate’s recourse is unclear. Public hearings are expected soon.

Monserrate’s participation in a June coup in the Senate also jeopardizes his viability in the state Legislature. He followed state Sen. Pedro Espada (D-Bronx) over to the Republican fold briefly, overturning the two-vote Democratic majority and sparking a month-long stalemate that alienated many of his colleagues.

Oh, look - three years probation...no jail time.

The Weak Link In The Events Of September 11th, 2001 - The Federal Aviation Administration Manager Who Destroyed The Recordings

That's right...I figured out who the weak link is - the Federal Aviation Administration manager, Kevin Delaney, who destroyed the recordings on September 11th, 2001.

Anyone not given instructions ahead of time would have preserved the recordings.

But he did not do so; he instead destroyed them.

Why don't we know WHY?

Evidence being destroyed isn't anything new...remember the evidence destroyed by the LAPD after RFK was murdered by Thane Eugene Caesar?

It was just taking up too much space.

Hey - Adam Austin has a new post up - Real Oath Keepers. Apparently, the other site was controlled opposition. I'm leaving it in my blogroll, but I may add the notation [CO], and will do so for a number of others, like Hal Turner and the like.

US charges Fla. lawyer with $1B investment fraud

The hits just keep on coming:

US charges Fla. lawyer with racketeering, fraud in $1B investment scam over fake settlements

* By Curt Anderson, AP Legal Affairs Writer
* On 11:00 am EST, Tuesday December 1, 2009

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (AP) -- A once high-flying attorney who courted politicians and celebrities was arrested Tuesday on federal racketeering and fraud charges alleging he operated a $1 billion investment scheme that used phony legal settlements.

Lawyer Scott Rothstein was led into the Miami FBI office in handcuffs following his early-morning arrest on five charges, including a violation of the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations or RICO law often used against the Mafia and other criminal organizations.

Alicia Valle, spokeswoman for the Miami U.S. attorney's office, said Rothstein was also charged with mail fraud, wire fraud, money laundering and conspiracy. The combined maximum prison term for convictions on all counts is 100 years, according to court documents.

Rothstein was scheduled to appear in federal court later Tuesday. A news conference by prosecutors, the FBI and Internal Revenue Service was also planned.

The type of charging document filed by prosecutors, known as an "information," is typically used when a defendant has already agreed to plead guilty. Rothstein's attorney Marc Nurick declined comment Tuesday.

The document cites unnamed "other conspirators" who also played key roles in the fraud, suggesting that more people could face charges. In addition, the document says that Rothstein paid "gratuities" to unidentified police officials "to deflect law enforcement scrutiny" of his activities.

The criminal case was seen as inevitable after Rothstein returned from Morocco early last month amid mounting questions from investors and the FBI about missing money. The FBI has estimated the Ponzi scheme could top $1 billion and asked investors to come forward with information.

Federal agents have seized Rothstein's boats, including an 87-foot yacht, as well as 20 luxury cars and numerous other assets, including his share of the Miami Beach mansion formerly owned by fashion designer Gianni Versace. Prosecutors are also going after 21 homes and other properties linked to Rothstein in Florida, New York and along Rhode Island's Narragansett Bay.

Meanwhile, the once fast-growing law firm Rothstein Rosenfeldt Adler is defunct and Rothstein has been disbarred by the Florida Supreme Court. Several investors have already filed lawsuits seeking their money back, including one case demanding more than $100 million in damages.

Rothstein promised huge returns on investments in legal settlements he said would pay out over time. Prosecutors say most of the settlements never existed and that Rothstein operated a Ponzi scheme, using money from new investors to pay older ones.

Shortly after the scandal broke, the Florida Democratic Party returned $200,000 in contributions from Rothstein and his law firm. The state Republican Party gave back $150,000, and Gov. Charlie Crist returned $9,600 that Rothstein and his wife, Kim, had donated to Crist's campaign for the U.S. Senate.

Rothstein's office is filled with photos of him with politicians from around the country, including former President George W. Bush, former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, Arizona Sen. John McCain and California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger. He was also close to Miami Dolphins great Dan Marino and many South Florida business and community leaders.

Fat Al & ClimateGate

Mike Rivero and Alex Jones have kept ClimateGate in the top of their news rosters. Good work, boys. I think the naming convention of adding "Gate" to every political scandal is retarded and mendacious, not to mention lazy, since We The People still haven't gotten to the bottom of Watergate, but I digress.

Dutch Environmental Minister Jacqueline Cramer goes one octave higher than the rest of her intentionally-deluded colleagues and states that the "hacked emails" were also "manipulated" - and that's where I jump the line to pants this idiot. My comments to this article are to clear up two things: one, that the emails were not HACKED, they were INTERCEPTED; two, since the CRU deleted their bullshit data, and none of the scientists dispute the authenticity of the emails in question, what the hell kinda OxyContin is she on?

Albert Gore...do you now see what a fat piece of shite you are?

You dove like a fat fuck into a pool of fudge...and you haven't yet come up for air. You threw the 2000 election; yes, you did, you stupid bastard! Fuck you and your goddamned attempt to cash in on our dime. Global Warming, or more appropriately, "human-caused" climate change is a GODDAMNED LIE.

Here's a snippet from the article linked above:

Since he left office, Gore’s personal net worth has skyrocketed on the back of his advocacy for global warming issues and the financial dividends this has reaped. Gore’s assets totaled less than $2 million in 2001 and although he refuses to give a figure for his current net worth, a recent single investment of $35 million in Capricorn Investment Group, a private equity fund, illustrates just how fast Gore has enriched himself from his climate change bandwagon.

Go fuck yourself, you bloody idiot. I mean, why listen to what you have to say, anyway?

YOU LOST TO GEORGE WALKER BUSH.

You lost the most important race in America to a complete fucktard, and We The People suffered as a result of your lackluster effort.

You lost to a fucking cokehead fratboy who put firecrackers in frog's assholes to watch 'em blow up...who gives a rancid rat's ass what you have to say about anything?

Albert Gore...you should use that Nobel Peace Prize that you were given as a suppository; your film An Inconvenient Truth should be shown only to mental patients at asylums; and as for you? You should be across the street from 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue sucking syphilitic cock for hits of bad crack.

Thanks for nothing, scumbag.

Okay, Okay...I'll Send Some More Grunts To Needless Deaths...I Get The Point

The above is what you DIDN'T hear President Barack Hussein Obama say, after the White House Thanksgiving dinner was crashed by the Salahis.

I mean, you're fucking kidding me, right?

No one heard about this the next day, so I mentioned the story to them. "Oh, that's impossible", they all stated. Well, apparently NOT, I grinned in response. Simultaneously, it's mentioned that he's decided on the number to troops to send to Afghanistan next week.

Does it need to be said?

SOMEONE ENGINEERED A STAND-DOWN OF SECRET SERVICE PROCEDURES THAT EVENING.

You heard it here first, dear readers.

Update: I think I did a disservice to the latter part of this posting, so it has been posted separately. Enjoy. Oh...on December 9th, this letter appeared at WRH's Letters Page:

READER: When Obama was campaigning a year or so ago, one of his promises was to bring the troops home from Afghanistan ASAP. A few weeks ago, some Generals asked Obama to send more troops. Obama was hesitating, and considering his options.

Up until a few weeks ago, India was hesitating to introduce carbon emissions reductions.

The Salahi's crashed the official State Dinner, breaching security. Obama's and the Indian PM's personal security, was severely compromised. No guns, but what about biological threats?

Last week, Obama promised 30,000 more troops for Afghanistan. India agreed to carbon emissions reduction, at least in principle. Were the Salahis sent to send a veiled message? Play ball, or your personal safety cannot be guarenteed? An offer that you can't refuse?

Just remember, dear readers - you heard it here first.

From 18 Pharmaceuticals To Two...With A Pot Brownie

Martha Stewart hosted a segment of Good Morning America with a guest by the name of Mieko Hester-Perez, whose son suffers from autism.

Mieko's son was prescribed eighteen different pharmaceuticals, to be taken three times a day.

She had heard of the healing properties of marijuana, and set forth to see if it could her her child.

After providing her son with pot brownies no bigger than one inch square, her son is now down to two core pharmaceuticals.

That, dear readers, is sixteen less possible negative interactions with pharmaceuticals that her son need never worry about again.

Insist that your representatives do all they can, so that your son or daughter need not live their lives crippled by pharmaceuticals.

You can email Mieko at mieko@corpattysvc.com or email Ted Cromwell, the head of the Unconventional Foundation for Autism, at hrcromwell@thecromwellfirm.com.

Israeli Owned Moving Van Photographed on 9/11/2001

This is an actual photograph taken of a moving van that was stopped by NYC police on the evening of September 11, 2001, on King Street.
Reports of vans packed with explosives were confirmed at the World Trade Center on September 11th, 2001 as well as sub level explosions, among many other explosions. These vans were also discovered around the area, one had been exploded, another had been stopped for having a picture on the side of it with a plane flying into the World Trade Center and found with explosives in it, and many others. The FBI actually had confirmed that a device was found in the complex and the building had begun to evacuate. It was this evidence that made the Federal Agency to speculate that a van packed with explosives was parked in the garage which was detonated to help weaken the structure.

The vans belonged to a moving company owned by an Israeli who fled to Israel before he could be questioned. The same company employed several other Israeli citizens, here without valid visas, who were reported photographing and viedo-tapine the actual attacks on the World Trade Center, dancing happily and giving eachother the "high-five" hand slap. These are known as the "dancing Israelis" and have been much written about, however the reports were never investigated in the official 911 report. Residents of an apartment who witnessed this called police who detained the men and noted that the van also had the suspicious mural. The men were later freed and returned back to Israel with no further comment by investigating authorities.

The New York City Authorities released the recordings of the radios from that day where one officer reports a van actually exploding and him needing assistance ASAP. Another series of radio communication confirms that a van was pulled over for having a mural on the side of it depicting a plane flying into the World Trade Center. Reference to the mural van was also made in the February 2006 Norman Y. Mineta International Institute for Surface Transportation Policy Studies (MTI) report entitled: "Saving City Lifelines: Lessons Learned in the 9-11 Terrorist Attacks".

The first, and most mysterious, piece of evidence to highlight comes from an actual transmission from audio from Channel 30 NYC, one of the emergency communications channels, on the morning of September 11 which makes reference to the discovery of a van full of explosives and two suspects located between 6th and 7th on King Street , some blocks away from the World Trade Center.

The bizarre thing about the transmission is that the responder makes reference to a mural painted on the side of the van depicting a "remote controlled plane" diving into New York City.

A full transcript follows the audio:

Oh...lest I forget - here's a link to the Complete Guide To Killing Non-Jews.

Thanks, Woodrow Wilson!

Mike Rivero wrote, in response to this news story, Obama: Debt Could Fuel 'Double-Dip Recession', "The two previous central banks nearly destroyed the USA. Why did our government authorize a third one?"

Now, let's just be clear..."our government" never authorized a third bank...this was a clandestine maneuver conducted by some quisling representatives, signed off on by then-President Woodrow Wilson. Mike has, authored by some other personage, the whole history of the establishment of central banks, and their dissolution by persons with integrity and the need to right the wrongs perpetrated against our august nation.

Ron Paul has called for an audit of the Federal Reserve, a move I feel is long overdue; of course, the "powers-that-be" are resisting such efforts. Now, think about that, and also, ponder the stories you're hearing about gold-plated bars of tungsten being found in our gold supply...and you should be more than a little disturbed in regards to what is going on in the background. Read America's Journey's latest entry to see the problem WE THE PEOPLE are experiencing since the various bits of scumbaggery perpetrated against us.

Do you want to see a day when our economy is equal to Mexico's? I do NOT.

So...Americans...you mission is this: vote out ANYONE and EVERYONE who does not have the best interests of America as their 1st, 2nd and LAST priorities.

A Thorn in the World’s Side

Israel in midst of freefall on global front, yet we’re preoccupied with nonsense

By Sever Plocker

November 15, 2009 "Ynetnews" -- Nov. 03, 2009 -- I’ve been invited to deliver a lecture about Israel’s economy and society at Oxford University. As it is a short lecture, and a respectable forum, I gladly accepted the offer. The invitation was extended about six months ago. Yet now, as my trip approaches, I feel concern. I’m hesitating.

My acquaintances are warning me: Don’t go. Hostile elements will cause disturbances, protest, shout and interfere. The atmosphere at British universities is anti-Israel to an extent unseen in the past. Israel is perceived as a thorn in the civilized world’s side.

An Israeli professor who quietly left a prestigious British university told me: “My academic and social life there was intolerable. Colleagues stayed away from me as if I was a leper. I was not invited to meetings, which were shifted from university buildings to private residences in order to keep me out. The fact I openly expressed leftist views was to no avail. My objection to the occupation and endorsement of a return to the 1967 borders made no difference. In practice, I became ostracized.”

“Today you are a welcome guest in the British and European academic world only if you reject the very existence of the colonialist and imperialistic creature that methodically commits war crimes, known as Israel,” he said. “Today it isn’t enough to condemn Bibi and Barak; in order to be accepted by academia outside of Israel one must condemn the Balfour Declaration.”

British academia’s radicalism highlights the accelerated deterioration in Israel’s status and image. We are in the midst of a freefall on the foreign affairs front. The cold peace with three Muslim states – Egypt, Jordan, and Turkey – has turned into a cold war. Israelis are unwelcome guests in these and many other states, where in the past we were embraced.

Meanwhile, Israel failed in its efforts to isolate Ahmadinejad’s Iran and disqualify it as a member of the family of nations. Ahmadinejad is having a grand time.

Bibi doesn’t see the change

The intimate dialogue that in the past characterized the relationship between the US president and Israel’s prime minister is paralyzed. The pipeline of dialogue is clogged. India and China, the two emerging powers, voted in favor of adopting the Goldstone Report at the UN’s human rights commission. Ever since then, it has been etched on Israel’s forehead as a Sign of Cain.

Friendly governments, such as France and Britain, are turning their backs on us while currying favor with local sentiments. Israel’s membership in OECD, which was largely a done deal in the past, is distancing again – because of the growing negativity vis-à-vis Israel and not because any technical dispute. By coincidence, or not, large foreign investors are pulling out of Israel.

Does everyone hate us? Possibly so, yet the fact is that up until six months ago Israel enjoyed an extraordinary boom on the foreign affairs front, both in terms of its foreign ties as well as in global public opinion. This fact points to one source for the deterioration we’re seeing: The new government in Jerusalem.

Indeed, this is a government elected by the people and it reflects the preferences of voters, who wanted a coalition comprising Likud, Shas, and Yisrael Beiteinu. As such, Netanyahu appointed Lieberman foreign minister, did not agree to a government rotation with Kadima, was unable to arrange a work meeting with the Palestinian Authority president, and conveyed a message of indifference towards the peace process.

Yet worse than this, the 2009 Netanyahu does not understand the world, and he mostly fails to grasp the change taking place within conservative parties, which are close to his political positions. Today they are the source of harsh criticism against the Israeli government; Netanyahu’s government.

The current anti-Israel wave is particularly dangerous especially because it is not limited to the media and to leftist groups that traditionally were classified as “Israel haters.” This wave is rising, expending, drawing young people, and painting the perceptions of the well-established middle class and influential elites.

Israel’s image has hit a nadir; it is isolated, unwanted, and perceived as bad. The world is telling us that should we continue along the same contemptible path, we will lose our legitimacy.

Yet we’re preoccupied with nonsense.

Indeed...hey - check out the comments for this article.

My thanks to David Martin for the heads-up.

"Peak Oil" And "Global Warming" - Two Sides Of The Same Scumbaggery?

Found a great link from the blog listing at Xymphora - it's called alethonews, and therein lies a posting I think you should read.

Of course, I've made a comment at the site, and it details my researches into the fraud known as "Peak Oil". If this complete fallacy hadn't been able to obtain a foothold in the American consciousness, there's NO WAY IN HELL that WE THE PEOPLE would have put up with $150-a-barrel oil back in 2008.

No bloody way - the chairmen of Exxon-Mobil, BP and every other oil company would have been hanging by their necks from lampposts all over the nation, if they had attempted this bit of scumbaggery without the lie of "Peak Oil" buffering any anger with unjustifiably rising oil prices.

So...understand this - "Global Warming" is simply another attempt to tax WE THE PEOPLE for something completely made up out of whole cloth. "An Inconvenient Truth" was a COMPLETE LIE; Gore should have NOT received a Nobel Peace Prize; in fact, he should have been CANED for his lackluster efforts during the 2000 Presidential campaign.

What Do You Want In Your COFEE?

Oopsie!

Computer Online Forensic Evidence Extractor (COFEE)
Easily capture important "live" computer evidence at the scene in cybercrime investigations, without special forensics expertise.

Law enforcement agencies around the world face a common challenge in their fight against cybercrime, child pornography, online fraud, and other computer-facilitated crimes: They must capture important evidence on a computer at the scene of an investigation before it is powered down and removed for later analysis. "Live" evidence, such as active system processes and network data, is volatile and may be lost in the process of turning off a computer. How does an officer on the scene effectively do this if he or she is not a trained computer forensics expert?

* Microsoft gives Interpol free COFEE
* Microsoft device helps police pluck evidence from cyberscene of crime

To help solve this problem, Microsoft has created Computer Online Forensic Evidence Extractor (COFEE), designed exclusively for use by law enforcement agencies. COFEE brings together a number of common digital forensics capabilities into a fast, easy-to-use, automated tool for first responders. And COFEE is being provided—at no charge—to law enforcement around the world.

With COFEE, law enforcement agencies without on-the-scene computer forensics capabilities can now more easily, reliably, and cost-effectively collect volatile live evidence. An officer with even minimal computer experience can be tutored—in less than 10 minutes—to use a pre-configured COFEE device. This enables the officer to take advantage of the same common digital forensics tools used by experts to gather important volatile evidence, while doing little more than simply inserting a USB device into the computer.

The fully customizable tool allows your on-the-scene agents to run more than 150 commands on a live computer system. It also provides reports in a simple format for later interpretation by experts or as supportive evidence for subsequent investigation and prosecution. And the COFEE framework can be tailored to effectively meet the needs of your particular investigation.

To help combat the growing number of ways that criminals use computers and the Internet to commit crimes, Microsoft is working with INTERPOL and the National White Collar Crime Center (NW3C) to provide COFEE at no cost to law enforcement agencies in 187 countries worldwide. INTERPOL and NW3C are also working with Florida State University and University College Dublin to continue the research and development that will help ensure that COFEE serves the needs of law enforcement, even as technology evolves.

Law enforcement can get COFEE from NW3C at www.nw3c.org or by contacting INTERPOL at COFEE@interpol.int.

If it's vital to government, it's mission critical to Microsoft.

Let's read the posting from Dark Reading:

Microsoft Forensics Tool For Law Enforcement Leaked Online

Security experts worry cybercriminals will figure out ways to circumvent the tool, which was discovered in a file-sharing forum

By Kelly Jackson Higgins, DarkReading
Nov. 9, 2009
URL:http://www.darkreading.com/story/showArticle.jhtml?articleID=221600872

A forensics tool built by Microsoft exclusively for law enforcement officials worldwide was posted to a file-sharing site, leaving the USB-based tool at risk of falling into the wrong hands.

COFEE is a free, USB-based set of tools, which Microsoft offers only to law enforcement, that plugs into a computer to gather evidence during an investigation. It lets an officer with little or no computer know-how use digital forensics tools to gather volatile evidence.

COFEE was posted, and then later removed, from at least one file-sharing site, but security experts say the cat is now out of the bag. While many forensics tools with similar functionality as Microsoft's Computer Online Forensic Evidence Extractor (COFEE) are available, security experts still worry the bad guys will use their access to the tool to figure out ways to circumvent it.

Chris Wysopal, CTO at Veracode, says the danger is that a detection tool will be written for COFEE so that the bad guys can cover their tracks. "Someone will build a detector so that machines will wipe themselves or give rootkit-like fake answers if this USB is inserted into a computer," Wysopal says.

One researcher who got a copy of COFEE online says bad guys could abuse the tool by taking one of its DLLs and loading it into a compromised machine's memory, where it then dumps stored clear-text passwords to a file.

Microsoft says it's investigating reports that some version of COFEE may have been made available online, but that it's not worried about workarounds. "Note that contrary to reports, we do not anticipate the possible availability of COFEE for cybercriminals to download and find ways to 'build around' to be a significant concern," said Richard Boscovich, senior attorney for Microsoft's Internet Safety Enforcement Team, in a statement. "COFEE was designed and provided for use by law enforcement with proper legal authority, but is essentially a collection of digital forensic tools already commonly used around the world. Its value for law enforcement is not in secret functionality unknown to cybercriminals -- its value is in the way COFEE brings those tools together in a simple and customizable format for law enforcement use in the field."

Boscovich said Microsoft "strongly" recommends not downloading "any technology purporting to be COFEE outside of authorized channels -- both because any unauthorized technology may not be what it claims to be, and because Microsoft has only granted legal usage rights for our COFEE technology for law enforcement purposes."

"We will take action to mitigate any unauthorized distribution of our technology beyond the means for which it's been legally provided," he said.

Graham Cluley, senior technology consultant with Sophos, says while there are plenty of tools that perform similar tasks to COFEE, it's not very likely to be abused for nefarious purposes. But, "that can't be ruled out," he says.

Cluley is more concerned about criminals learning the inner workings of COFEE. The real danger is if they can "determine if it is being run on one of their PCs and take precautionary steps to prevent the computer crime community from finding out what they've been up to," he says.

But getting a copy of COFEE won't likely expose its "secret sauce," says Jamie Butler, a director at digital forensics firm Mandiant. Attempting to reverse-engineer it to evade it probably isn't necessary for the bad guys, anyway, because the suite of tools in COFEE collects so much data that they already can get lost in the "noise," Butler says.

Well...that's not a ringing endorsement of its effectiveness.

West Bank Rabbi: Jews Can Kill Gentiles Who Threaten Israel

Just when you thought the world couldn't turn any stranger:

West Bank rabbi: Jews can kill Gentiles who threaten Israel

By Haaretz Service

Just weeks after the arrest of alleged Jewish terrorist, Yaakov Teitel, a West Bank rabbi on Monday released a book giving Jews permission to kill Gentiles who threaten Israel.

Rabbi Yitzhak Shapiro, who heads the Od Yosef Chai Yeshiva in the Yitzhar settlement, wrote in his book "The King's Torah" that even babies and children can be killed if they pose a threat to the nation.

Shapiro based the majority of his teachings on passages quoted from the Bible, to which he adds his opinions and beliefs.

"It is permissable to kill the Righteous among Nations even if they are not responsible for the threatening situation," he wrote, adding: "If we kill a Gentile who has sinned or has violated one of the seven commandments - because we care about the commandments - there is nothing wrong with the murder."

Several prominent rabbis, including Rabbi Yithak Ginzburg and Rabbi Yaakov Yosef, have recommended the book to their students and followers.

Boy...I can't wait to get this book! Borders...don't close so fast - send me my copy first!

The New Lee Harvey Oswald?

Nidal Malik Hasan...it looks like we can add him to the ranks of James Earl Ray, Sirhan Bishara Sirhan and Lee Harvey Oswald.

Mike Rivero at WRH has a ton of great articles at his site...what I have to offer is simply this: I got home yesterday and turned on 1010WINS, as I always do. I had vaguely heard about the shooting at Ft. Hood before leaving to go home...and already I was suspicious.

So the reports come in, yadda yadda yadda...shooter at Ft. Hood was then SHOT DEAD.

Yes, that's right, folks...SHOT DEAD.

So...imagine my surprise when the reports of the shooter being in critical and stable condition, simultaneously...and, most importantly, ALIVE.

How the FUCK did the guy come back to life?!?

I call SHENANIGANS.

Update: Greg Bacon has an excellent analysis on the Ft. Hood situation.

Twin Towers, Twin Myths?

The NIST vs. Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth. Challenged to conduct its own testing of WTC dust samples for nanothermite, the NIST crawls under a rock

by JAY LEVIN AND TOM MCKENZIE
Santa Barbara Independent News
http://www.independent.com/news/2009/sep/17/twin-towers-twin-myths/

One of the crucial technical disputes in American history, perhaps second only to global warming, is underway. It pits hundreds of government technicians who say the World Trade Center buildings were brought down by airplane impact against hundreds of professional architects and building engineers who insist that the Twin Towers could never have collapsed solely due to the planes and are calling for a new independent investigation. It is a fight that is not going away and is likely to get louder as more building trade professionals sign on to one side or the other.

Stephen Jones said he sent a letter in April 2008 to NIST about his original findings (nanothermite chips found in WTC dust samples), inviting NIST to test its own dust for such chips. In public comments since, NIST has said that Jones’s research is not “scientifically valid” because Jones can’t prove the “chain of custody” of the dust he tested...

Other groups that support NIST’s findings argue that neither the samples nor Jones’s tests are reliable. Jones replied simply: “They don’t need my dust to test. They have plenty of dust of their own where they know the chain of custody. They just won’t test it.”...

To Richard Gage and his allies, NIST’s refusal to test and its questionable conclusions derive from government-dependent employees and defense contractors fearful that evidence of explosives would be too traumatic for the public — and too risky to NIST captains answerable to political superiors. Hence, NIST’s refusal to address fully scientific papers challenging nearly every element of its case, including its theory that pneumatic air pressure mimicked explosives and that tons of nano-thermite (not less-powerful thermite) would be needed...

Inevitably, of course, the gorilla in the room is what if AE911 and the Jones team are correct in their analysis? The dark notion that the hijackers wouldn’t need airplanes if they could plant explosives would raise questions of who did have access and what was their motive? And how would America deal with such an investigation against the backdrop of suppositions that some officials in government were complicit? This idea is virtually unthinkable to most of the public, much less something the American political system can handle. A Democratic Congress wouldn’t cut off funds for a war it opposed nor impeach a president who broke laws; how would it cope with the cataclysmic implications of new 9/11 evidence that disproved the official story?

Results of the Santa Barbara Independent's poll on this story:

Tragic, but no conspiracy. Planes hit them, they went down -- 23%

More than meets the eye; let's investigate -- 22%

Inside job; we MUST investigate -- 53%

Dorothy Kilgallen story optioned for big screen biopic
October 3rd, 2008 by Scott Marks
http://www.emulsioncompulsion.com/2008/10/03/news/dorothy-kilgallen-story-optioned-for-big-screen-biopic

According to Variety, producer John Davis (Dudley Do-Right, I Robot, Fat Albert, Norbit) has optioned Good Night, Dorothy Kilgallen, a proposal for an expose book by Paul Alexander that ties the columnist’s death to her investigation of the JFK assassination. Kilgallen was an outspoken critic of the Warren Commission. A friend of JFK’s, she began a crusade to single-handedly uncover a conspiracy behind his murder. She conducted an interview with assassin’s assassin Jack Ruby that purported to contain important new information on the murder of President Kennedy. She conceived the interview as a centerpiece for her expose Murder One, Alexander’s book insists that Kilgallen died mysteriously and the notebooks containing the information she was about to publish disappeared.

Wonder why the MSM has steadfastly endorsed the Warren Commission and refused to investigate the triple assassinations of the '60s? Virtually alone among journalists with a national audience (syndicated column and radio show), Dorothy Kilgallen pursued the case. Her sudden death put a chill on the Fourth Estate that's still in effect. While journalists circle the wagons over federal pressure to reveal confidential sources, or the recent White House attacks on Fox News, few have cared to examine this seminal case of lethal intimidation.

1. On July 15, 1959 Kilgallen became the first reporter to imply that the CIA was working with organized crime to knock off Fidel Castro.

2. On Sept. 25, 1964, Kilgallen ran an interview with Acquilla Clemons, one of the witnesses to the shooting of Officer Tippit whom the Warren Commission never questioned. Clemons told Kilgallen that she saw two men running from the scene, neither of whom fit Oswald's description.

3. The same month, she reported in the New York Journal American that Jack Ruby and slain DPD officer J.D. Tippet had a two-hour meeting in Ruby's Carousel Club.

3. One of the biggest scoops of Kilgallen's career came when she obtained the 102-page transcript of Ruby's testimony to the Warren Commission (wherein Ruby begged to be taken from Dallas to Washington, where he could tell the whole truth).

4. Dorothy's last public reference to the JFK assassination appeared on Sept. 3, 1965 when she challenged the authenticity of the famous Life magazine cover of Lee Harvey Oswald

After a trip to New Orleans (anticipating Jim Garrison's investigation), and a private interview with Jack Ruby in his Dallas jail cell, she told several friends and associates that she was "about to blow the JFK case sky high." Shortly afterward, she was found dead in her townhouse, and all of her notes from the Ruby interview and New Orleans trip vanished. Seven days after Kilgallen's loss, Dr. James Luke, a New York City medical examiner, said she died from "acute ethanol and barbiturate intoxication, circumstances undetermined."

A good account of the case here:

WHO KILLED DOROTHY KILGALLEN?

Mikhail Gorbachev calls for global perestroika

Twenty years after that shameful symbol of division was torn down, ultra-liberal capitalism needs its own perestroika

http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2009/oct/30/1989-capitalism-in-crisis-perestroika

http://rawstory.com/08/news/2009/06/09/mikhail-gorbachev-calls-for-new-american-revolution/

But it was soon very clear that western capitalism, too, deprived of its old adversary and imagining itself the undisputed victor and incarnation of global progress, is at risk of leading western society and the rest of the world down another historical blind alley.

Today's global economic crisis was needed to reveal the organic defects of the present model of western development that was imposed on the rest of the world as the only one possible; it also revealed that not only bureaucratic socialism but also ultra-liberal capitalism are in need of profound democratic reform – their own kind of perestroika...

“Some have reacted with understanding. Others have objected, sometimes sarcastically, suggesting that I want the United States to experience upheaval, just like the former Soviet Union. In my country, particularly caustic reactions have come from the opponents of perestroika, people with short memories and a deficit of conscience,

“[If] all the proposed solutions and action now come down to a mere rebranding of the old system, we are bound to see another, perhaps even greater upheaval down the road,” he wrote. “The current model does not need adjusting; it needs replacing. I have no ready-made prescriptions. But I am convinced that a new model will emerge, one that will emphasise public needs and public good, such as a cleaner environment, well-functioning infrastructure and public transport, sound education and health systems and affordable housing.”

He continued: “The time has come to strike the right balance between the government and the market, for integrating social and environmental factors and demilitarising the economy.”

US Rich-Poor Income Gap World's Most Extreme
Dullophob.com
10-29-9
http://www.rense.com/general88/extreme.htm

Income inequality in the US is now the most extreme of all countries. The 2008 OECD report 'Income Distribution and Poverty in OECD Countries' concludes that the US is the country with the highest inequality and poverty rate across the OECD and that since 2000 nowhere has there been such a stark rise in income inequality as in the US. The OECD finds that in the US the distribution of wealth is even more unequal than the distribution of income.

The increase in US income inequality in the 21st century coincides with the offshoring of US jobs, which enriched executives with 'performance bonuses' while impoverishing the middle class, and with the rapid rise of unregulated OTC derivatives, which enriched Wall Street and the financial sector at the expense of everyone else. Millions of Americans have lost their homes and half of their retirement savings while being loaded up with government debt to bail out the banksters who created the derivative crisis. The financial insiders running the Treasury, White House, and Federal Reserve (Rubin, Greenspan etc.) shifted to taxpayers the cost of the catastrophe that they had created. Goldman Sachs, saved with the public's money, recently announced that it was paying massive six and seven figure bonuses to every employee.

A Quarter Of A Billion Dollars Well Spent, I Guess

Michael R. Bloomberg has won a third term as Mayor of New York City, barely surviving a challenge from former City Comptroller William Thompson.

Looks to me that the endorsement from President Barack Hussein Obama was the kiss of death...just ask former New Jersey Governor Jon Corzine.

That is the number of people who could have been hired at a salary of $35,000 in New York City at Bloomberg L.L.P.; instead, he spent it all on his bought-and-paid-for third term run. This figure comes from the average-per-hour alluded to by 1010WINS radio, calculated from just the September primary to now, a count of 47 days. I think that giving gainful employment to out-of-work New Yorkers could have gone a huge way in proving his intentions for the future of New York City; instead, those monies went to an advertising agency. For all intents and purposes, he could've just mailed that money to New Yorkers, instead of wallpapering our mailboxes with his blatant propaganda.

Vote for Comptroller William Thompson tomorrow, and show Michael R. Bloomberg that New York City can't be bought on the cheap.

While you're at it, New Yorkers, go sign John Kennedy O'Hara's petition - let's get the momentum for the pardon in full swing. David Paterson just needs to see your names added to the growing list of justice seekers.

So...get out and vote, fellow New Yorkers! If you are unsure of your voting location, call (866)868-3692 or go to vote.nyc.ny.us.

Kay Griggs Talks: Desperate Wives (Blackmail In US Government)

Part 1

Part 2

Kay Griggs, wife of colonel George Griggs, USMC (retired USMC Commandant): 29th Commandant of the Marine Corps, found her husband's diary, which contains details of homosexual blackmail in the top ranks of the US Marine Corps and names leading politicians and military leaders. Kay Griggs's information about the US government also comes from observations and people she met. She exposes initiation rituals, the raping of young men and blackmail and murders to keep people quiet. Much of this, according to Griggs, is related to secret society activity and she names figures like Henry Kissinger and a string of other top government individuals.

Oppose House Resolution 867!

Voters are being urged to contact their representatives (U.S. House of Representatives 202.225.3121 or www.house.gov; U.S. Senate 202.224.3121 or www.senate.gov the Congressional switchboard) to oppose H.Res. 867.

The Bill Moyers interview of Richard Goldstone is taking a life all of its own. The PBS blog has apparently dealt in some censorship, but this is the beautiful thing about the internet - you can create your own resources. This poster created his own blog, and got to state his point. Read on...I posted lucky comment #7.

The Two-Bit Jedi Mind Trick

Yep...I'm at it again, dear readers. The mendicants at CounterKnowledge keep calling me back...you can begin here for the nonsense that begat this rant:

Of course, John...these pathetic dicks just attempt their sophistry over and over again. They think that they're two-bit Obi-Wans trying a Jedi mind trick...

"Steel-framed buildings CAN collapse from fire..."

"Those Israelis who found the private residences of DEA agents aren't spies..."

"Passports survive conflagarations that can damage an indestructible black box..."

"Taking a juicy load to the throat doesn't make you a cock-smoker..."

"Our tribe would never collude to defraud the world and give each other Nobel Prizes and PhDs and "peer-review" each others' completely factless propaganda..."

"I will insist that you defend someone else's statement even when you clearly post a link separating your comments from referred text from another personage..."

"These are not the fund-stealing, child-blood drinking, scat-loving, lying sacks of shite you're looking for..."

You guys are the ultimate asshats. To think that you fucking mendicants could "magic" away my 60-page document providing NAMES, DATES, TIMES OF ATTEMPTED INFILTRATIONS of your retarded countrymen who, if it is to be believed, located the homes of the various intelligence personnel COMPLETELY AT RANDOM, selling "paintings" they didn't even create, for exhorbitant amounts.

WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU GODDAMN NITWITS?

Do you really think that John Thames and I are going to wake up one day and say, "Gosh...we've been such silly geese! Of course open-air jet-fueled fires can melt steel! Of course the Holocau$t happened as stated - why would someone lie about that?"

Every bloody day, some new facet is peeled from the lie factory you pieces of garbage have built. Keep adhering to your stupid lies...I hope you are all buried in the rubble when it all comes crashing down.

Chosen People: How to atone for being a WASP

By Scott McConnell

Measured in terms of military dominance, Israel has never been stronger. But Israel’s campaigns against its Arab neighbors no longer receive the international applause they once did. Many Europeans consider Israel a regional bully. Even in the United States, a recent essay in the New York Review of Books argued that a state grounded in ethnicity is an anachronism, a throwback to the ethnonationalism that the West sought to transcend after World War II.

In the realm of soft power, Israel finds itself somewhat beleaguered, with its cultural and economic exports facing incipient boycotts and its military actions scrutinized and rigorously condemned by prestigious international jurists. Among gentiles, Israel’s strongest support comes from Christian Zionists, but the country’s more sophisticated enthusiasts recognize that Armageddonite eschatology is not a solid foundation from which to ensure Washington’s unconditional backing.

To Zion’s rescue comes George Gilder, veteran luminary of the American Right, author of a successful polemic against feminism and a Reagan-admired ode to the free market, and publisher of a newsletter touting technology stocks. The Israel Test is in many respects a crackpot work, but it is more original than most contemporary political bestsellers, and it is bold.

Some mainstream conservative magazines have dutifully reprinted excerpts, and a few right-wing bloggers have praised the book. Still, one senses hesitation: is this an argument conventional Republicans really want to embrace?

Stripped to its basics, Gilder’s book attempts to view the Arab-Israeli conflict through the prism of the scientific and racialist thought influential in Europe and America in the first decades of the last century. By the 1920s, scientific racism was already facing intellectual resistance, perhaps most insistently from Catholics such as Hilaire Belloc, and its later association with Nazism eventually brought about its near complete demise. A generation before Hitler, Madison Grant, then scientific racism’s most prominent American exponent, had been a friend of presidents and a stalwart of the Eastern establishment. He published The Passing of the Great Race in 1916 to wide readership and considerable acclaim. The “Nordics,” claimed Grant, had given the world most of its explorers and leaders, the organizers of great endeavors. Indeed, it is not hard to imagine how an Anglo-Saxon might survey the world early in the last century, observe where its most fertile centers of economic, scientific, and technological innovation were located, and construct a plangent theory about endangered Nordic superiority.

George Gilder takes this template and recasts it, deploying group IQ data that didn’t exist in Grant’s time. For Gilder, the superior men are not Teutonic explorers or generals but Jewish scientists and financiers. He takes a brief tour through the birth of quantum physics, the Manhattan Project, and the computer revolution and finds Jews central at every stage. It is indisputably the case that in proportions much greater than their share of the population, the leading scientists and mathematicians of the 20th century have been Jewish. Half of them? Probably not. Over a quarter? Almost certainly. No surprise then that America won the race to build the first atom bomb with a boost from Jewish refugee scientists from Central Europe or that the computer revolution took off in a region congenial to Jewish talent and innovation—that is, California.

Gilder takes these facts, which are neither novel nor very carefully explored, and grafts them to an argument about Israel, the Middle East, and America’s broader conflict with the Muslim world. At the core of this struggle, he sets his “Israel test.” Is one able to admire and embrace Jewish superiority and creativity, or does one, out of envy, oppose it? This is the examination we all must face. The Nazis failed, of course, and so, he says, have the Arabs. Gilder does not concede that the anti-Semites of the past century were more likely to dwell on the prevalence of Jews in the upper echelons of Bolshevism than in the physics lab. Yet the envy that he describes has often been an unacknowledged part of their complaint.

In transporting his “Israel test” to the contemporary Middle East, Gilder runs awry. To pass the test, one must accept propositions held almost solely on the far Right of the Israeli political spectrum. He argues that no accommodation with Palestinians is desirable or possible. Those who suggest otherwise, even such robust friends of Israel as Thomas L. Friedman and The Atlantic’s Jeffrey Goldberg, Gilder labels weak-kneed appeasers.

Though this book is leavened by cheerleading for Israeli high-tech entrepreneurs and digressions into the theory of computers and the history of the Manhattan Project, the bulk consists of Gilder repeating the same argument: all opposition to Israel is rooted in anti-Semitism, a resentment among the masses for the brilliant and creative. Support for Israel is the only way to honor the Jews. Capitalism is the only social system that honors creativity and innovation. Hitler was an anti-capitalist, thus anything less than wholehearted support for the Likud and the Israeli parties to its right is rooted in envy, anti-Semitism, Nazism.

When addressing conditions in the Middle East, Gilder sinks to cartoonish agitprop. Palestinian leaders are “mostly Nazis.” “[W]ithout the presence of the Jews, there is no evidence the Palestinians would want these territories for a nation,” he writes. During Israel’s war of independence, “Palestinian Arabs fled, chiefly evicted or urged to flee by Arab leaders.” This catchphrase of Israeli propaganda, repeated a million times in the past 50 years, is designed to absolve Israel of any responsibility for Palestinian refugees—they did it to themselves. But it is contradicted by a powerful and growing historical literature, much of it based on Israeli military and government archives, which records Israel’s ethnic cleansing of Arabs from Palestine in 1948, including drawing up lists of Arab men who were to be seized and assassinated before the villagers were driven out. One can—and many Israelis do—debate the morality of these acts, central both to Israel’s founding and the sense among Palestinians of their own tragic history. Pretending they did not happen cannot be the basis for a serious book.

Similarly fanciful is Gilder’s assertion, oft repeated, that Arab leaders claim “the right to banish or kill 5.5 million Jews.” He names no Arab leaders making this claim and would be hard put to do so. Is Gilder simply being mendacious? It’s hard to know.

By the book’s end, one senses the author’s exasperation. Gilder seems to know that most readers welcome Jewish excellence in the sciences. But what does that have to do with the Arab-Israeli conflict? It pains him that many brilliant Israeli innovators seem to want nothing more than to lead their lives and build their companies in Europe and the United States. A frantic tone creeps in: “We need Israel today as much as Israel needs us, as much as we needed Jewish physicists and chemists [for the Manhattan Project].”

Gilder never explains why, beyond misty paeans to the spirit of enterprise and capitalism and Jewish genius. (“Jews have known before the fatherhood of Abraham that it was the word that made the world—the ultimate assertion of algorithmic power.”)

But what kind of Israel does America “need”? The 9/11 Commission Report, stating the obvious, noted that American support for Israel’s treatment of the Palestinians is a prime theme of anti-American terrorist propaganda. Why should Americans support roads designated for Jews only and a web of checkpoints that strangles Palestinian life? The United States has strived with difficulty to overcome its own history of racial discrimination. Why should it embrace a stronger version in Israel? And the Israel of scientific advancement—not to mention the growing contingent of Israelis abroad—hardly needs the violent West Bank settlers to make a positive contribution to the world.

While there are other examples of authors writing books about the superiority of ethnic groups to which they do not belong, they make up a small subset in the literature of ethnonationalism.

After thumbing through The Israel Test, blogger Matthew Yglesias speculated that Gilder may be a kind of WASP who “likes Israel in part because he wishes American Jews would leave him alone and go live there instead.” This interpretation strikes me as insufficient. Perhaps a better one can be derived from Gilder’s final chapter, in which he paints a portrait of his artistically and financially successful ancestors and the upper-class WASP world in which he was raised. The focal point is an incident that occurred when he was about 17. While trying to impress an older girl, his summer tutor in Greek, he blurted out something mildly anti-Semitic. The young woman dryly replied that she was in fact “a New York Jew.” Gilder was mortified. He relates that he has never quite gotten over the episode. It is the kind of thing a sensitive person might long remember. Variations on this pattern are not uncommon in affluent WASP circles to this day: guilt or embarrassment at some stupid but essentially trivial episode of social anti-Semitism serve as a spur for fervent embrace of Likud-style Zionism. Atonement. It would not be surprising if a similar process helped to shape George W. Bush’s mentality.

This sequence might be amusing if the real-life consequences were less sinister. It is now often acknowledged—if not widely regretted—that Palestinians have had to pay the price for Nazism and the Holocaust. It is they, after all, not the Germans, who are now stateless. But Gilder’s confession, and the book it animates, establishes a corollary to this truism: Palestinians are now required to pay not only for the crimes of the Nazis but for the genteel anti-Semitism of America’s fallen WASP elite. __________________________________________
