Iraq War

“This Government Does Not Torture” ~ George Waterboard Bush

George “Waterboard” Bush and Crew

Remember when GWB explained to the world that “this government does not torture“? I bet most of you believed him, right? Just like the Fox News slurping jarhead I had a conversation with not long ago. When I said that it embarrasses me that my country has reverted to what we once prosecuted others for, he asked me what I was talking about. I explained that Iraqi prisoners were tortured. He said I didn’t know what I was talking about. You see, he’s “been there” and there was no torture.

I asked, “What about the waterboarding?”

He laughed and said, “I’ve been waterboarded, have you? That isn’t torture, they did it to us in the Marines.”

Of course, what he went through was hardly torture, even though some ex-marines and Seals say it was. Is it torture if you are doused with water for 10-15 seconds? By your friends and fellow Marines that you know damn well don’t have ill intent for you? When you know it is practice training in case you get caught behind enemy lines?

Well, I would think that IF it were a scared Muslim dude who is held down by steroid laden monstrosities, cursing you, slapping your nuts with batons, causing sleep deprivation by chaining your hands to the ceiling, not allowing you to rest for up to 40 hours or more at a time, being threatened with death and mock executions, threats of killing your loved ones if you don’t “confess”… that it might be a tad bit different than the comparable love-fest initiated by your fellow jarheads.

But to people like him its the same, because, you know, he’s so bad ass and all.

Even the wikipedia tells us that its not the same:

The difference was in the manner in which the detainees’ breathing was obstructed. At the SERE school and in the DoJ opinion, the subject’s airflow is disrupted by the firm application of a damp cloth over the air passages; the interrogator applies a small amount of water to the cloth in a controlled manner. By contrast, the Agency interrogator … applied large volumes of water to a cloth that covered the detainee’s mouth and nose. One of the psychiatrist / interrogators acknowledged that the Agency’s use of the technique is different from that used in SERE training because it is ‘for real’ and is more poignant and convincing.

It appears that we did, in fact, torture others (according to the Constitution Project). In a recent 577 page report (that you can read HERE), the bipartisan committee of 11 (led by Asa Hutchison, ex-DHS undersecretary/DEA Head, and James Jones) explains that we did (this is a death knell for those who that we never tortured).

Let’s review what was done to these people in our name:

The OLC issued a second memorandum signed by Bybee in August 2002 (hereinafter Bybee Techniques Memo) that concluded 10 specific “enhanced” techniques were not torture, and could be used lawfully by the CIA. The techniques were: “(1) attention grasp, (2) walling, (3) facial hold, (4) facial slap (insult slap), (5) cramped confinement, (6) wall standing, (7) stress positions, (8) sleep deprivation, (9) insects placed in a confinement box, and (10) the waterboard.”

In finding that the 10 techniques were not torture, the Bybee Techniques Memo relied not only on a narrow legal definition of torture, but on factual representations about how the techniques would be implemented that later proved inaccurate. To give one example, the OLC memorandum stated the volume of water used to waterboard a suspect would be carefully controlled, and that while enhanced techniques might be used more than once, “repetition will not be substantial.” In fact, one detainee was waterboarded 83 times, and another detainee 183 times, by interrogators who “continuously applied large volumes of water.”

So the report shows that we did torture and that it:

“damaged the standing of our nation, reduced our capacity to convey moral censure when necessary and potentially increased the danger to U.S. military personnel taken captive.”

Yeah. No shit. And we killed and maimed many that confessed to stuff they never did in the first place.

The New York Times tells us:

The task force found “no firm or persuasive evidence” that these interrogation methods produced valuable information that could not have been obtained by other means. While “a person subjected to torture might well divulge useful information,” much of the information obtained by force was not reliable, the report says.

One key issue that you ObamaBots need to realize is that your favorite murderer in chief wanted to “look forward, not backward” when he had the chance to hold the Bush criminals responsible. (You two party pukes make me sick.) Nevermind that he didn’t want these torture regimens stopped, because sure as hell, he uses the same schemes.

Hutchison didn’t want to believe it and had to be convinced, but finally had to admit that he now has no doubts about what the US has done:

“This has not been an easy inquiry for me, because I know many of the players.”

Mr Jones chimed in:

“I had not recognized the depths of torture in some cases,”

“We lost our compass.”

Dahlia Wasfi: America Under Israeli Occupation

Dahlia Wasfi explains in very clear, easy to understand terms, who controls the US’s Middle East policy, how, and for what reason. Of course, the depth of corruption and control are much deeper, but understanding these basic issues should be enough to anger and invigorate those just coming to the realization that they lie to us brazenly and without end.

Ariel Sharon: “We, the Jewish People, Control America, and The Americans Know it“!

Jewish Institute for National Security Affairs (JINSA)dvisory board includes such notable figures as Michael Ledeen, Richard Perle, and R. James Woolsey, while Vice President Dick Cheney, former U.S. Representative to the United Nations John Bolton, and former Undersecretary of Defense for Policy Douglas Feith were all on JINSA’s Board of Advisors before they entered the Bush administration

Jason Vest, writing in The Nation,alleges that JINSA, along with Frank Gaffney’s Center for Security Policy, are “underwritten by far-right American Zionists” and both believe strongly that “‘regime change’ by any means necessary in Iraq, Iran, Syria, Saudi Arabia and the Palestinian Authority is an urgent imperative.”

911: Who, What, Why, and How???

What they expect us to believe:

Paul Craig Roberts tells us:

One is that according to the official story, a handful of Arabs, mainly Saudi Arabians, operating independently of any government and competent intelligence service, men without James Bond and V for Vendetta capabilities, outwitted not only the CIA, FBI, and National Security Agency, but all 16 US intelligence agencies, along with all security agencies of America’s NATO allies and Israel’s Mossad. Not only did the entire intelligence forces of the Western world fail, but on the morning of the attack the entire apparatus of the National Security State simultaneously failed. Airport security failed four times in one hour. NORAD failed. Air Traffic Control failed. The US Air Force failed. The National Security Council failed. Dick Cheney failed. Absolutely nothing worked. The world’s only superpower was helpless at the humiliating mercy of a few undistinguished Arabs.

It is hard to image a more far-fetched story–except for the second thing you need to know: The humiliating failure of US National Security did not result in immediate demands from the President of the United States, from Congress, from the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and from the media for an investigation of how such improbable total failure could have occurred. No one was held accountable for the greatest failure of national security in world history. Instead, the White House dragged its feet for a year resisting any investigation until the persistent demands from 9/11 families for accountability forced President George W. Bush to appoint a political commission, devoid of any experts, to hold a pretend investigation.

Who REALLY did it:

Even the earliest media reports knew, but have been removed since:

Even the Devil, himself, (plus the devil’s relatives) was complicit.

Why?

Several simultaneous reasons

Trauma-based Mind-control

John Friend explains that one purpose is to gain control of the world’s minds by inflicting trauma on a mass scale, in order to bring us around to supporting the Empire’s goals (also know as Zionism’s goals):

There is no doubt that 9/11 was a trauma-based mind control operation on a societal scale. Think about it: (fake) images of “hijacked” airliners full of innocent Americans smashing into the iconic World Trade Center towers in New York City were shown repeatedly on television, over and over again, to a traumatized public. Media personalities, politicians, and others provided emotional (scripted) commentary of the day’s events, immediately identifying the culprits patsies: Osama bin Laden, Muslim extremists, and that evil boogey-man,”al-Qaeda”. World Trade Center “victims” were shown jumping out of the buildings due to the fires, all shown on television to a terrified and vulnerable audience. “Victim” family members stepped forward to explain the alleged phone calls made by various “victims” on the hijacked airliners. 9/11 was a day full of trauma, both physical and psychological. We know individuals and societies are more easily controlled and manipulated when they are in a traumatized state.

Believe it or not, the events of 9/11 appear to have been a completely scripted and staged psychological operation, involving fake videos, manufactured “victims”, projected images, fabricated evidence, and scripted witnesses, media personalities, and “actors”…

… 9/11 was a PSYOP not only on the American public, but the entire world.  Israel and international Jewry, along with their goyim puppets in the Jew-run United States government, perpetrated this massive fraud against the world 11 years ago today in order to demonize Islam, launch the fraudulent “Global War on Terror” against Israel’s Muslim enemies in the Middle East, and initiate their Zionist-run police state tyranny in the United States and other Western countries.  It is past time for the American public to wake up from this trauma-based mind control operation and recognize that Israel was behind 9/11, not Osama bin Laden and “Muslim extremists”.  Anyone saying anything to the contrary is working for the enemy, knowingly or unknowingly. All politicians and media personalities covering up this massive fraud, which has led to the murder and destruction of millions around the world, is a traitor. Those refusing to recognize 9/11 for what is really was and remains are as guilty as the Jews who planned, executed, and benefitted from it, period.

Again, Mr Roberts clues us in to at least one aspect of “why”:

The circumstantial evidence is that these were orchestrated events designed to keep fear alive, to create new intrusive powers for a new over-arching federal policy agency, to accustom US citizens to intrusive searches and a police force to conducting them, and to sell expensive porno-scanners and now more advanced devices to the Transportation Safety Administration. Apparently, this expensive collection of high-tech gadgetry is insufficient to protect us from terrorists, and in August 2012 the Department of Homeland Security put in an order for 750 million rounds of ammunition, enough to shoot every person in the US 2.5 times.

Paulsterity Comes No Matter What or Who

Paulsterity comes. Don’t doubt it. It doesn’t matter whether or not it is Ron Paul, Paul Ryan, or anyone else that is (s)Elected by for us. Luckily, many of the PaulTards have awakened to his Republican Party protectionism, cronyism and lies. Sure, like ObamaManiacs, there are still enough die-hards that still believe to keep him in the news to a certain extent, but it seems that his true colors have shown many of the thinkers what I’ve been saying all along: if they are part of either of the corrupt “parties”, then they are corrupt and certainly do not deserve your support ot leadership positions in this country.

Again, as if I am a worn out record, Never an R or D Again. I hope you get it soon.

Why will Paulsterity come, even with the new VP candidate, ‘Paul’sterity Ryan? Because he is openly calling for it. Steve Lendman lays it out plainly in his post, “Paul Ryan’s Socially Destructive Agenda“:

Paul Ryan’s Socially Destructive Agenda

by Stephen Lendman

Ryan and other Republican House Budget Committee members call it “The Path to Prosperity: A Blueprint for American Renewal.”

Key is gutting vital programs millions of Americans rely on. Ryan wants Medicare privatized as well as Medicaid, food stamps, and and other entitlement programs ended.

Later, he wants Social Security privatized en route to ending it altogether.

Jews Stepping Up To The Plate

I have been calling out sane, rational Jews to do what is right. To hold the criminals here and in Israel accountable. To address other Jews with truth, because they are the only ones that can. Very few Jews listen to a redneck, much less adhere to my advice. But it has always been a suggestion from my heart, for I know that if the truth ever comes out and the rest of America figures out what is going on, there will be hell to pay.

When Noor at Snippits and Slappits posted the Alan Sabrosky interview (which I had heard quite a while back) it re-instituted within me that there are some Jews willing to do what I suggest. Mr Sabrosky made a clear comment about Israel  (and Mossad) being the perpetrators of 911 (which led to 60,000 Americans dying) and if America figured this out:

And what Americans need to understand is that they did it. They did it. And if they do understand that, Israel’s going to disappear. Israel will flat-ass disappear from this Earth.

He went on to say:

And I will tell you frankly ~ I don’t think either one of you has any Jewish ancestry. I do. You know, I have one grandparent who’s Jewish. As Phil Weiss from Mondoweiss were talking about it ~ he’s a Jewish guy who puts a lot of critical stuff out there on Israel ~ and I said for the Orthodox Rabbinate I’m not a Jew. For the Nazis, I’ve been there.

And if this explodes, I’m going to go down with the rest of them. And I know this. I flat-out know this. But if that was the price for making America whole again…

This is what I have been talking about. So many people (especially down here in the south USA) have believed the lies about Muslims attacking on 9/11. And look what we’ve done to support massive killings and occupations of their lands all over lies. If (a big, but potential “if”) America sees that she has been duped and that the true culprit is the one we have been supporting with money and our children’s lives, then what Sabrosky says will come true.

Extremely important in that interview is the fact that Sabrosky and the interviewers (one, Phil Tourney, is a survivor of the USS Liberty, the ship Israel viciously attacked in June of 1967 where Israel’s air force and torpedo boats were instructed to attack the ship which was used for electronic surveillance, killing 34 and wounding 170) aren’t just redneck ranters like me. Sabrosky comes with credentials and is calling a spade a spade. He must be pissed because he then said (in response to Tourney saying that we must discuss these issues and get them out into the open):

I agree very much on that side, and I’ll tell you ~ I have a dream, as Martin Luther King, Jr. once said, and my dream is that the 5th and 6th US fleets take Israel and cream it.

And that’s the end of it.

As he describes his communications with the leaders at the Army War College (he ran the place once) and the Marines Headquarters, he says that the military is just now beginning to understand “who” did 911 and they were first astonished and now pissed. Unlike the sycophantic money-grubbing Congress of the USA, the military will stand up and do what is necessary to stop Israel from ever doing anything like this again. He suggests that the powers that be in Israel know this distinction and that even tho the political whores bow to Israel, the military does not:

It’s not only a matter of blowing our cover. If Americans ever truly understand that ~ they’re history. It’ll be a bloody, brutal war ~ and they’re gone. I mean, it’s not even going to be a close contest. And they (Israel) know that.

Sabrosky concludes by saying:

Nothing to me is more important than loyalty to or allegiance to my country. Nothing is. But that requires my country and my government to also behave in an honorable fashion. Our government, today, does not behave in an honorable fashion.

And there is something in the Declaration of Independence which says that whenever any form of government becomes oppressive of these ends it is the right and duty of the people to alter or abolish it, and I think we have gone to the point where we need to alter or abolish it.

And I say that as a man who spent his entire life loyal to the United States.

Please read the entire post at Snippits and Slappits which includes the video interview and the report by Sabrosky entitled, “The Dark Face of Jewish Nationalism“.

To the few Jews I know and others that might happen upon this post: please do your part and hold the criminal elements that use you accountable. Stop falling for their lies. Begin standing up for America and distance yourselves from Israel. Show whose allegiance you actually have… America or Israel.

To Americans. Understand the significance of this information. Know who the enemy is, then tell your congressional ass-kisser to Israel that you now know the truth. No more allegiance to Israel. No more money to Israel. Distance themselves from her and her money-masters or vote their traitorous asses out.

The Madness Of March – Updated Twice

Image found at http://oybay.wordpress.com/2007/03/02/purim-parties-across-the-oy-bay-area/

March of 2012 could turn out to be quite crazy for the world. I know that personally I see it as having a potential for disaster. My buddy Korn Likker is having that surgery on March 7 that could be extremely difficult. My Mom is having major dental surgery on that day, as well. Dec 7th is potentially a day for something quite big elsewhere, too.

With the obvious goings on in the Middle East, there is a potential powder keg ready to blow. It seems that Israel’s crazies are ready to light the fuse, but they want to use America as their torch. I doubt that it is necessary to strong arm our government officials since they are seemingly owned by the Zionist bastards who control most of what is happening. But even so, the Zionists are saying that they will attack with or without America’s blessing (as IF we actually control anything they do). Sure, this just could be more rhetoric used to scare people, but maybe not. And why not?

Because there are those that believe much of this is related to Purim, the Jewish celebration of mass genocide (something the Judaic God seems to relish). Allow me to point out several articles that I think one should read and learn about. First is Zen Gardner’s essay, “Purim: Why War On Persia (Iran) Could Start March 7th“. Read it all, but notice that using Purim’s dates for attacking others is nothing new. Zen points out:

• -The Iraq war of 1991 ended prematurely exactly on Purim day, immediately following the savage slaughter of 150,000 surrendering Iraqi troops during the Purim dates. Decidedly montrous in any estimation.
• -The next Iraq war began on Purim 2003, with a wreckless, sensationalized death-dealing bombardment of Iraqi civilians. The war went on dealing millions of needless deaths and continues to this day.
• -To top it off, the merciless  Libyan invasion began on Purim 2011…just one week after the Japan earthquake and tsunami.
• -There were also massive earthquakes on Purim, a 7.8 in Chile in 2008 and an 8.8 in China in 2010.–HAARP and other technologies in the hands of these extremely evil forces?

Update:

Snordelhans offers Zen’s above post via video. Nicely done:

This may come as a surprise to all you fellow Bible Belters who seem to embrace the Old Testament more than you do the New one (you know, the one that contains the red letter words of that “Prince of Peace”), but Purim is a “religious” celebration that descends into the depths of depravity, lust and murder. They are encouraged to get so drunk that they cannot tell the difference between good and evil. They even offer special ear-shaped “cookies” to their children, so they can ritualistically cannibalize their enemy. The entire spectacle should be enough for any real Christian to completely distance himself from any “Judeo” part of their Christianity.

A second article is from Video Rebel’s blog called, “Purim 2012 Red Alert: Fun For Netanyahu Might Not Be Good For You“. In this article, the author points out that there are some significant things happening just before and after Purim this year:

Benjamin Netanyahu will confer with President Obama at the White House on March 5th to discuss an attack on Iran. On March 8th the FBI plan to shutdown and scrub 4 million computers for an alleged DNS virus. You do not have to be paranoid to think that either a war or a false flag Gulf of Tonkin type of attack on an American ship near the Iranian coast would best be staged at a time when the computers of 4 million anti-war and anti-Zionist activists are shutdown.

Should anyone be surprised if something goes down during this timeframe? If you are, why?

It is apparent that everything is falling apart here and all around the world. You’d have to be watching Fox News and all the other Zionist propaganda outlets to not know how close to devastation we find ourselves. Its not like they won’t do ANYTHING to lie to you:

I must say that more than anything in the above clip, I was most impressed by the fact that the guy said he would hope that his 13 year old brother would grab a weapon to defend him, should the same thing happen here in America. However, to most Bible Belt Christians, defense against an occupying force is little more than terrorism (the hypocrisy is sickening).

What you are experiencing at your house is certainly what is being experienced by most Americans, no matter what lies are spewed via the complicit media. It is real and it is not your fault, nor the fault of any poor people. It tells me that the thieves have taken about as much wealth as they can and its time to bring this thing to a head.

And how might they do it? Maybe this is what is in store? Sure, Americans (the poor ones, anyway) have had enough of war. We see how it is ruining our way of life and how it strips us of our few remaining liberties. we are beginning to see how we have ravaged and maimed hundreds of thousands of innocents… displaced them and have taken over their resources. Any sane person wouldn’t want that to happen to their own family, but somehow we are still supporting the monsters who do it to others in our name. But since we are awakening (slowly but surely), the PTB need something else to convince us (AGAIN) that we need MORE war. More carnage.

The Iranians have thousands of guided missiles with fuel air explosive warheads. A 1,000 fuel air explosive has as much destructive capability as a 4,000 pound conventional bomb. Fires and explosives require oxygen. A fuel air explosive sends fuel out in all directions gathering oxygen so it can ignite and explode. It has a greater blast radius and creates much more deadly blast waves than a conventional bomb that must take its oxygenate with it in the warhead. It would only take a handful of these guided missiles with fuel air explosives to destroy an American military base leaving a few survivors to be captured or killed by the Iranians or their allies. Within minutes every military base in Central Command will cease to exist. It seems the men and women on those USAF, Marine and Army bases will serve the same purpose as the Persian Gulf and Mediterranean fleets. They will sacrifice their lives not to attack Iran because they will be dead before they can do any harm to any Iranian civilians. They are there to die so the folks back home will be absolutely convinced that World War III is a really good idea.

Previously, I wrote an essay entitled “The Bankers Want America To Lose World War III”. The bankers passed NAFTA and ratified the WTO treaty to send 50,000 manufacturing plants overseas. The Lords of Wall Street do not serve in the armed forces. So they had their professors with Foundation grant money figure out that if America’s supply lines were stretched 8,000 miles to China on a dodgy credit card to China, the Americans will lose World War III. To ensure an American defeat they decided to attack two nations with strong ties to Russia and China. There are no accidents when you are dealing with bankers.

If you are a normal person, you might wonder why anyone would want to start World War III only to intentionally lose it. You must realize by now that the bankers are not normal people and that they despise you. They have stolen over 30 trillion dollars from you. They are covering their tracks by having Ben Bernanke hyperinflate the currency which will soon hyperinflate prices. Between now and the collapse of the dollar, the bankers have to either get you killed or put you in a lockdown prison called a National Security State. The bankers are in the process of stealing the last few dollars from our pensions and savings. When prices go sky high, they will have stolen your last few dollars, pounds and euros. You will be of no further use to them and it will be time for you to die. The most likely scenario is a series of plagues that the bankers imagine will kill from 6 to 6.5 billion people.

Still not convinced? Maybe the fact that the bankers are jumping ship in mass might help. Again, I suspect that many know that they have rung about as much wealth from us as possible and they are running to hide as the shit hits the fan.

I should also point out that we are being met with warnings from other world powers. If this goes down, you can bet your sweet bippy that it will be the beginning of WWIII:

On a completely different note, what if the madness of March is to include another HUGE earthquake? Read the following post/video that ARF turned me on to. It appears that every 188 or 189 days an enormous earthquake occurs somewhere in the world.

The liklihood that there will be another megaquake and axis shift on march 22, 2012 is very high. In my opinion, the cause of these shifts is a massive celestial object moving inward from the 9 o’clock orientation of the solar system/ springtime/ constellations Leo-Orion.

The effects on the planet are directly correlated to Earth’s orientation relative to the massive object, with shifts of Earth’s axis occuring every 377 days, and significant Earthquakes every 188-9 days.

As a matter of fact, dutchsinse also suspects that a very large earthquake is due (not necessarily for the same reason).

Use the links below to monitor the earthquake developments globally.

monitor earthquakes on a global basis:

http://sincedutch.wordpress.com/2011/11/30/11302011-list-of-earthquake-links-…

Link to DOZENS of Volcano webcams:

http://sincedutch.wordpress.com/2012/01/02/112012-all-the-volcano-webcams-of-…

The signs of unrest are showing — volcanic activity increasing (just like last year before the Japanese massive earthquake) …. global earthquake swarm activity showing obvious signs (again like last year)… and now we’re seeing a localized 5.0M+ earthquake swarm in and around Japan proper (just like last year as well).

Put that all together, and you get a REAL POSSIBILITY of another large earthquake off the coast of Japan …. soon (weeks not months)

All areas around the ring of fire, all areas that are KNOWN earthquake prone.. and all areas that ARE NOT earthquake prone… all these areas where people reside — you need to have a plan and be prepared. We’re going to be seeing earthquakes occur in places that don’t normally see much earthquake activity ….

Areas like Canada, the northeast USA , midwest and south USA —– areas like Central Europe , France, Germany, England, Belgium, Netherlands — be alert as well.

Russia, China, India —- BE ON HIGH ALERT — the whole area of Russia/China/India is also showing movement and buildup (the recent 6.8M in siberia for instance plus DOZENS of 5.0M+).

North american Craton as well — states of Idaho, Wyoming, Montana, Utah, Colorado, New Mexico, Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Missouri, Tennessee, Kentucky, Illinois, Indiana, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia, West Virginia, and the entire area of New England (connecticut, delaware, maryland, new york, pennsylvania, new jersey, washington DC, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Maine, and Ohio (several more states are included in the outskirts of the main craton edge — basically this puts the ENTIRE USA under a potential earthquake threat in the near term (weeks).

If the activity dies down over the next few weeks, we can all take a deep sigh of relief.. but until things calm down globally.. THE TIME TO PREPARE WAS YESTERDAY !!!! Get your plans together… food, water, clothing, communication, transportation, and self defense … know the plan and be ready (just in case).

B’Man’s Guest Post Sabbath Watch: The Fruit Of Lies And Hypocrisy

Submitted by Don Lucas (please reference the original article found at WSWS.org):

Brothers and Sisters

I Wish I Was You

Paul continues to sidle up to the very criminal, lying cabal (think Bruce Fein) that has gotten us into the mess we are in (h/t aangirfan)

I had another communication with Ry2Sense (he blocked me from his Youtube Channel… I must be a bear to deal with, or the young man is a pussy, or better yet, Ryan wants no real truth to be read on his channel). I want to give my friends who have defended him the benefit of the doubt and in turn, give him a chance to redeem himself for the stupid things he has said or written in full ass-.up ready-to-receive-the-pound display.

It is much more than the 911 thing (and Ryan simply apologizes for Paul’s asinine distancing himself from the truth and/or Truthers… of which Ryan obviously is not and cares little for). 9/11 is the absolute nut-cutter, but some sycophants could care less about that truth. They have other agendas to pursue. I sent Ryan the data (the math)… I told him where I got it (Paul’s Plan To Restore America economic plan)… and I asked him to research it.

He did nothing except the standard knee-jerk, sycophantic regurgitation of talking points.

The damned details are right there for anyone to see, but when the horse refuses to drink, (we deal in mixed metaphors around here) we can easily see where some people are either too stupid or, maybe part of the hood-winking. Sure, I also know that emotional ties become very strong when someone like Ryan puts themselves on the line by touting so much bullshit that when the truth is heard, one must run away screaming with their fingers in their ears. He is committed and when a committed person sees or hears the truth, it is still damn near impossible to get them to see the light (when they are desperately clutching the blindfold down over their own eyes).

Now, Ryan wrote one key sentence that really tells it all. When I addressed that Paul would continue the Bush-era tax cuts (that have only served the ultra rich and to make the burden be on us poor people), Ryan replied, “For one there is nothing wrong with Bush’s tax cuts. ” The funny thing was Ryan’s very first sentence to me in his reply:

I’m sorry but you don’t seem to know anything about economics or Ron Paul.

Heh.

No, I’m no economics expert, but I did stay in a Holiday Inn last night.

Is he an idiot or a shill?

He then regurgitates the BS:

Paul isn’t cutting Medicare or Social Security or food stamps at all. SS is your own money. Paul’s idea is to allow the youth to opt out of it. And phase it out. And he would cut a lot more than 15% form the military. He end both wars and close down bases all over the world.

What the Freak is wrong with people? I didn’t write the plan for Paul (and obviously, Paul didn’t either). One thing is for sure, I have not heard a single person who has actually LOOKED at the data to be able to discount or negate my findings. The ONLY ones who even try are the ones so enamored with Paul that they can’t see or don’t want to see what is plainly right in front of their two eyes.

I don’t have a dog in the race (I am no ObamaBot nor do I have another candidate I am pushing, especially from either of the parties). So, what could possible be my motive, if one believes I have a negative motive?

Look, I am tired of getting screwed. And worse, I am sick and tired of numbnut, insouciant sycophants with some emotional attachment to a candidate that cannot even READ their favorite candidate’s OWN GOD DANGED paper to see where they are screwing their fellow Americans (hell, I don’t know if Ryan is an American, I know he works for the Japanese government, for whatever that is worth beyond the obviously dubious connections that would bring).

So, for all of you Ryans out there, take this (beware, strong language… but funny):

No Bravery – James Blunt

No Bravery – James Blunt

There are children standing here,
Arms outstretched into the sky,
Tears drying on their face.
He has been here.
Brothers lie in shallow graves.
Fathers lost without a trace.
A nation blind to their disgrace,
Since he’s been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.

Houses burnt beyond repair.
The smell of death is in the air.
A woman weeping in despair says,
He has been here.
Tracer lighting up the sky.
It’s another families’ turn to die.
A child afraid to even cry out says,
He has been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.

There are children standing here,
Arms outstretched into the sky,
But no one asks the question why,
He has been here.
Old men kneel and accept their fate.
Wives and daughters cut and raped.
A generation drenched in hate.
Yes, he has been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.

Think of that song when you see the men and women return from their illegal occupations of foreign lands. As you look into their eyes, understand that they have been brainwashed into believing the “fight for freedom”… understand what it must be like to have reality hit you… to know that what you have been doing is illegal, immoral and horrendous. Understand that the motives of most of these people who do champion the false war of freedom is born from a lifetime of propaganda and lies.

When you see these people and get the chance to speak with them, never assume that they are simply killers without heart (even though, it is true that some are). Most have nothing else to pursue (forced conscription) as a career. Most have only heard American exceptional-ism BS their entire lives and when reality hits, they (in many cases) decide to kill themselves after they understand what they have been a part of.

More service member suicides than death from warfare:

That should be all you need to know when you understand that what you are starting to see is sadness, hurt, and the awakening to truth by the ones sent to do the Monster’s dirty work. Those that realize show no more bravery… only sadness.

Everything Happening Now Was Planned Before 9/11

From Washington’s Blog:

Help Prevent Tyranny by Educating People: Copy the Body of this Post and Send It In An Email – All Modern Browsers Allow You To Do It – To Your Elected Representatives, Local Law Enforcement, Military Friends and Everyone You Know

Everything Happening Now Was Planned Before 9/11

Special preface to my friends in the military, law enforcement and intelligence and other government servants: You are sworn to defend and uphold the Constitution, and the facts below may help you do so.

We’ve been told that “9/11 changed everything” and that we’re living in “a post-911 world”.

We’ve been told that what our government is doing now has been rendered necessary by the urgent post-9/11 threat from terrorists.

In reality, however, virtually everything happening now was planned before 9/11. Please see for yourself:

• The government’s spying on Americans began before 9/11 (confirmed here and here. And see this)

• The Patriot Act was planned before 9/11 (and see this). Indeed, former Counter Terrorism Czar Richard Clarke told Stanford law professor Lawrence Lessig:

After 9/11 the government drew up the Patriot Act within 20 days and it was passed.

The Patriot Act is huge and I remember someone asking a Justice Department official how did they write such a large statute so quickly, and of course the answer was that it has been sitting in the drawers of the Justice Department for the last 20 years waiting for the event where they would pull it out.

(4:30 into this video).

• Government plans, exercises or drills to detain American citizens who opposed war were also drawn up before 9/11, as was a bill allowing the permanent detention by the Attorney General of aliens convicted of no crimes, with no judicial review

• The Afghanistan war was planned before 9/11 (see this and this)

• The decision to launch the Iraq war was made before 9/11. Indeed, former CIA director George Tenet said that the White House wanted to invade Iraq long before 9/11, and inserted “crap” in its justifications for invading Iraq. Former Treasury Secretary Paul O’Neill – who sat on the National Security Council – also says that Bush planned the Iraq war before 9/11. Top British officials say that the U.S. discussed Iraq regime change even before Bush took office. And in 2000, Cheney said a Bush administration might “have to take military action to forcibly remove Saddam from power.” And see this.

• Cheney made Iraqi’s oil fields a national security priority before 9/11. And the Sunday Herald reported: “Five months before September 11, the US advocated using force against Iraq … to secure control of its oil.” (remember that Alan Greenspan, John McCain, George W. Bush, Sarah Palin, a high-level National Security Council officer and others all say that the Iraq war was really about oil.)

• The decision to threaten to bomb Iran was made before 9/11, and the Christian Science Monitor notes that the U.S. has been claiming for more than 30 years that Iran was on the verge of nuclear capability
