Super Spy Agencies To Merge

9/11 Families Rejoice

A bill expressing the commission's recommendations has been passed through congress. Now we will have one big spy agency that spies on everyone. The CIA, FBI, NSA, DIA, and eleven more agencies rolled into one complete unit under one person. And where is the oversight by the representatives of the people? From what I've heard of the size of the bill, I wonder if anyone has read it. Does this mean more political assassinations at home and abroad? It only makes sense. What other way could there be to run a total police state? I guess that's progress. Why resist what's inevitable?

About the Election and the Optical Scan Votes

I, for one, would feel more re-assured about the outcome of the presidential election and its integrity if there were a recount of the optical scan votes, since there is such a discrepancy between the polling projections and the results on those machines. There can be no meaningful recount of the touch-screen votes, but we have a paper trail for the optically scanned ones. Also, the number of votes counted and the number of people who voted don't seem to match in most cases - in Florida counties at least - with more votes counted than voters; which calls for a recount in and of itself. There is no real mandate for the Bush-Cheney agenda if the election was rigged. And, we all need to have confidence in the voting process for democracy to work. Electronic computer counting of votes is open to hacking and glitches, and needs verification.

Bush wins Re-election

Unfortunately, with electronic voting and no paper trail for almost half the votes, we can never really know for sure if it was a legitimate victory. And more war is definitely coming, but I can't say exactly when. Henry Kissinger recently said in an article in Newsweek that no matter who became president, pre-emptive war is the new world order's assignment for America.

My Comment on the Non-Debate

Concentrating on who will be the next war president (who will fight the fight the best in war and whose war will be the better plan), the amiable non-confrontation between the candidates, the choreographed spectacle for the masses has begun in this arena. Focus your attention on the center ring. And which is the best war candidate?

Kerry "confronted" Bush on his war policy on North Korea, and then Bush "confronted" Kerry. All the while Bush has probably already slated that war for November -- right after the one against Iran and Syria in alliance with the Israelis in October. Yet, I see but a little difference between them; the choices in the race seem almost irrelevant.

Just a short note -
Remember, you heard it here first.

The Republican Convention

( I'm not really trying to ignore you, I'm just very tired of the lies.)

If what I read is correct, when they call fascism democracy and provoke fights and call their opponents aggressors, then that's just the Republican party doing its thing. Expect more war, because the Republican platform is war and they've apparently started their convention looking for war on China and North Korea. I'm pretty sure Iran is on that list also. I think maybe the Democratic platform isn't all that much different either. But be on the look-out for pre-emptive strikes, and oh yeah, al-Qaeda.

Casualties in Najaf Battle

According to the DoD records at Lunaville's Coalition Casualty Count http://icasualties.org/oif/prdDetails.aspx?hndRef=8-2004 , only eleven US soldiers were killed in fighting in Najaf in the month of August out of sixty killed in the same period in all of Iraq. Hundreds of Sadr's militants and followers were said to have been killed along with some unknown amount of civilians. The shrine itself is to be closed for ten days and US troops will remain in the city until Allawi deems that the Iraqi police are ready to take over the job. And according to the media, the Shia leadership has called for an end to armed resistance, but the clerics later denied it. Fighting still goes on across other cities in Iraq.

Sistani Comes to Najaf

As a man of peace, Sistani came to Najaf. Will U.S. troops recede and fighting stop? I hope so, but I also wonder.

My Prediction (maybe I shouldn't say anything and just shut up from now on)

My Prediction ...

Here's what I postulate: (JMHO)



Bush is starting world war with Syria, Iran and North Korea among others just about right now. He doesn't seem to care or thinks it's the right thing to do, but America could likely be nuked and largely defeated in the world arena. And all the riches which you counted on will be lost. It may be there won't be any election in 2004 because of it; that is, there will be no election in November if the US military is largely defeated and US cities lie in radioactive ruin with the nation under martial law.

The US may well suffer some defeat because of this battle now going on in Najaf, by God - not to mention the torture at Abu Grahib. I will try to stay the course myself as well, but more than likely you will probably think I'm crazy, and you might be right. I probably shouldn't say anything at all. But, somehow I just can't see how massacring tens of thousands of innocent Iraqis and taking over their country was a Christian act. But if all you self-proclaimed "Christians" say so, then who am I to disagree? I'm still waiting for God to make good on His promises to me. Anyone can make a promise, but how many ever keep one?

I guess I just don't get it. I've heard all the rationalizations of those in power in this nation, but somehow I must be missing something important. Preemptive war doesn't seem to make all that much sense to me. Preemptive peace makes more sense I would think. Those who call me a contrarian might be right. Everyone in the world seems to be trying to make me not care anymore. They call me the fool and say my thoughts and opinions are worthless. They only try to beat me down and destroy me for fun and profit. But it is written that God is judge and power belongs to Him. The policy of this country doesn't make sense to me. Death and destruction is the path mankind is on. The sharp teeth of the war machine devours the earth and the war-profiteers live the high life.

Curious Forceful Earth Energy Burst Reported

On June14th this year, four days after the G8 Economic Summit at Sea Island which is very close to King's Bay nuclear submarine base in Georgia, EMSC Seismology recorded a 6.1 magnitude earthquake just off the coast at 23:00 hrs UTC. Now this event was not broadcast by any news service that I know of, and the USGS doesn't mention it. Not many seemed to pay any attention to this detection by those machines. Quite a curious thing though. What was the cause of the registration on instruments? Did anyone around there feel a quake? Or, could it have been an echo of some powerful new sonar? Are citizens even allowed to know such stuff anymore? Then again, do you really want to know?

Here are a couple of links:

Democracy and Tyranny American Style

People will probably complain that when it comes time to vote they must choose between the lessers of two or more evils. And it's basically true, because no decent person would willingly desire to be in charge of this country that is run by and for greedy, corrupt corporations and individuals. Instead of democracy, it's the Enrons that put candidates in office, and it's the GEs and Halliburtons that tell us how to live everyday on TV. If your own politicians whom you support don't care about the American people anymore, why should I? Almost nobody seems to care about me anyhow. It's not like there is anything inherently good about the American people. We were just lucky enough to have some wise forefathers who realized what democracy should be and how we could continue to live like a free people. But, we haven't much lived up to that calling ever.

If the Iraqis ever really get a choice and become a real democracy, they'd most likely kick the US right out of their country. They might even join together with Iran and other Muslim countries in the region and forcibly eliminate any remaining occupying troops from what they call their holyland if those troops happen to stay that long.

About the War on Terror .. Osama bin Who?

So this has been the beginning so far of the war on terror, and we've already been told over and over to expect much more. Bush and Cheney won't relent on war and tell us to be ready for new attacks everywhere, here and there. They've just focused on Iraq strategically right now due to its position and its oil. Iran and Syria look to be up next, as well as North Korea - war on multiple fronts. This machine isn't going to back up; the engines are in forward gear. I think it will grind itself and others to the ground.

It's either victory or defeat now, everyone knows - annihilation and/or slavery under oppression. And all that is offered, all the options seem to be unacceptable proposals.

So, I'm still waiting to see what happens. But, I wish I could get a ticket to another planet, somewhere to find peace, and that's for sure. I don't really want to see the results on earth anymore. Anyway I expect things to heat up greatly in the Middle East soon, and somehow I don't think I'm the only one who feels that way.

National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States

Out of all those who should be held responsible for the terror of 9/11, the presidentially ordained commission on Tuesday turned on the firemen and policemen who came to the aid of those in the twin towers. They blamed them for lack of communication. Bush, Cheney and the rest of this administration they didn't wish to offend, but instead they lambast those who were heroes in that catastrophe. And what about the FBI, CIA, FAA, and NORAD?

Maybe they're taking revenge on those firemen who witnessed it firsthand and said at the time that it looked as though those buildings had been demolished (as in a purposeful demolition). This upbraiding by the commission of rescue workers is more than "despicable" it seems to me, even if improvements could be made. The whole inquiry stinks to high heaven IMHO. Can you say "cover-up" once again?

Nuclear Armeggedon

American people, looks like you've jumped off a cliff! And I know you won't be asking for any help after so many people told you not to, least not from me. It's a little late anyway, don't you think? Pretty steep fall though! I don't know if I have a rope that long. Maybe you'd better look for another way out. Looks like you're almost on your own, with the exception of some British troops. It seems you're beyond the end of the rope.

If the Arabs wanted to destroy the U.S., all they need to do is cut off the oil they send us. And if the Iraqis wanted to do the same, all they need to do is set up ambushes for small patrols and leave the big ones alone.

But still, Bush knows that he can destroy the whole earth with just a simple code word and a push of a button. Or at least, that's what we've all been told.

Rumsfeld Loves It

Rumsfeld flew to Baghdad today and visited troops at Abu Ghraib prison telling them how much "fun" it is to be questioned by those troops. Maybe they should put him in the prison, strip him naked, rape him, hook him up to an electrical current and then beat him to death. He loves it! And it would be fair and just. But, it's somewhat doubtful that they would get the truth out of him anyway though. (I hope you don't mind my sarcasm.)

The Signs of 'Moral Superiority'

It really does come down to the Golden Rule: "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you."

So one part might have shown another how they love to be bombed by bombing the other. And the other responds by showing how they too love not only to be bombed, but raped, robbed, pillaged, beaten, abused and murdered also by sowing these seeds among them. One says, "We'll see your bomb and raise you a megaton." And as the stakes grow higher, one tells the other, "the ball is now in your court. Your move and then I'll have to call your bluff."

And in this manner the people of the world compete. They say "bring it on" and ask each other in the contest "can you do it as well as I can? Can you make as many dead and mutilated bodies as this? Can you take away from those poor people as much in order to accumulate riches and glory? Can you come close to matching this blind rage and hatred? We will show you how it's done, and give you a lesson on how to lie, steal and kill, and not only get away with it but be praised for doing so."

Last one left standing wins the prize, and the goal is the last can of gasoline left to feed the machine in a desolate, wasted world. And then they will say, "lucky me, I must be good." and then they will pass away.

So you may watch the game, but sideline seats are reserved and satellite pay-for-view is expensive. Participation may well also become no longer voluntary. You bought it, now you must pay the price.

This quote is attributed to Richard Perle: "If we just let our vision of the world go forth, and we embrace it entirely and we don’t try to piece together clever diplomacy, but just wage a total war . . . our children will sing great songs about us years from now."

Mike and Mickey

Update:
Michael Moore has reportedly admitted it was just a publicity stunt and that he knew a year ago that Disney wouldn't distribute his new film.

Secrecy Pervades

Secret testimony, secret abuses, secret searches, secret lawsuits, and secreted films.

Recently:
FBI translator Sibel Edmonds was prevented from testifying by the Department of Justice about what her superiors knew about the 911 attacks using an old "State Secrets" privilege. Bush and Cheney testified in secret about what they knew about 911 to the docile commission. CBS was ordered to delay showing the photos of prisoner abuses in Iraq's infamous Abu Ghraib prison while Falluja was under siege. Hundreds of secret searches have been done under the Patriot Act. The ACLU was barred from disclosing its lawsuit against parts of the Patriot Act. And now patriot Michael Moore's new film "Fahrenheit 911", about Bush, 911, and the Saudis is being blocked from distribution by Mickey Mouse. What ever happened to you, Mickey? Don't want even Donald Duck to speak up anymore?

A Secret Investigation

The President and Vice President have given their answers together before the commission investigating the horror that came on 9/11 in 2001, and what they had to do with it. It's just too bad that no one outside of that commission is allowed to hear their testimony. No longer do "we the people" have a right to know what our leaders are doing or not doing, or what they have done or not done. And I guess that's the end of it, because in exchange for their testimony the White House has stated that no one else from their administration can be called forward to testify about events related to that day. The investigation seems to be over, and the likely conclusion will be that ours isn't yet enough of a police state, that more terrorism can be expected, and the citizens need to give up more rights and any freedom they still possess.

My Country, Right And Wrong - By Dom Stasi, April 29, 2004

"The object of life is not to be on the side of the majority, but to escape finding oneself in the ranks of the insane." -- Marcus Aurelius

' ... For the phrase - My country, right or wrong - as a direct quotation, is incorrect. In fact, just like virtually everything else the majority of Americans are willing to believe, it's wrong as hell. The actual quotation, as spoken by the celebrated German-born, United States Senator, Carl Schurz back in the Nineteenth Century, is very different from that with which we've grown familiar and to which we've obediently ascribed in the post-millennial darkness that is Twenty-First Century America. It's worlds-apart different. It's true meaning diametric to the blind obedience implied by the corrupt, "My Country, Right Or Wrong." ...

' ... "My country," declared Senator Carl Schurz, "If right, to be kept right, and, if wrong, to be set right." ...

' ... "The American people" Schurz continued, "should be specially careful not to permit themselves to be influenced in their decisions by high-sounding phrases of indefinite meaning, by vague generalities, or by seductive catchwords appealing to unreasoning pride and reckless ambition. More than ever, true patriotism now demands the exercise of the soberest possible discernment.

"I am far from denying that this republic, as one of the great powers of the world, has its responsibilities. But what is it responsible for? Is it to be held, or to hold itself, responsible for the correction of all wrongs done by strong nations to weak ones, or by powerful oppressors to helpless populations? Is it, in other words, responsible for the general dispensation of righteousness throughout the world? Neither do I deny that this republic has a mission, and I am willing to accept what we are frequently told, that this mission consists in 'furthering the progress of civilization.' But does this mean that wherever obstacles to the progress of civilization appear, this republic should at once step in to remove those obstacles by means of force, if friendly persuasions do not avail? Every sober-minded person will admit that under so tremendous a task any earthly power, however great, would soon break down." ... '

The Main Story

Well maybe the biggest story lately came on about the twenty-second of the month when an explosion or two occurred in Ryongchon, North Korea leaving deep craters, and almost half the wounded were blinded. Was that Earth Day? What is the official reason again? - Oh yeah, an "accident" that's cloaked in secrecy.

Joe Vialls has a theory, and below I'm posting a link. Does he have access to highly classified information? It's an interesting link, but it seems no one is able to verify what he is saying until very much later. Has the US already been using "mini-nukes"? You know the mainstream media would never come out with stuff of this nature. It seems secrets are everywhere. You don't think so? No? OK then. :)

Here's the link: Ryongchon - Nuclear Trigger for American Conscription?

The Lull Before The Storm

It's been a trying two weeks since I last blogged, you might say. The marines and aircraft are still waiting for the call to strike Fallujah again. The occupation will try to make another example, I guess; and make more enemies all over Iraq and the world - an iron boot shown as the symbol of occupation. But, maybe the main story of the last week is the end of operations in Pakistan to seize or kill followers of Osama bin Laden and al Qaeda. And in other news the Muslim world seems to be gathering together and raising a call for vengeance. Yet wait a second, look out for those bombs falling all around soon again, folks! So I'll be quiet for a bit. Be ye therefore ready, or as the Boy Scouts' motto says, "Be prepared."
