On October 21st there will be a Women’s March on the Pentagon hosted by the Global Women’s Peace Action. My wife and many of our friends will be going and even I will tag along in support in spite of my gender. We participate with some reservations as we have only demonstrated publicly twice since 9/11, once opposing the then about to start Iraq War and once against the annual meeting of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC). All too often demonstrations morph into progressive exercises in flagellation of what are now referred to as “deplorable” values with little being accomplished either before, during or afterwards, apart from the piles of debris left behind to be cleaned up by the Park Service. And such events are rarely even covered by the media in Washington, where the Post generally adheres closely to a neocon foreign policy tactic, which means that if you ignore something distasteful it will eventually go away.
Hopefully on this occasion it will be different because the time for talking politics is rapidly being rendered irrelevant by the speed of Washington’s disengagement from reality and Americans of all political persuasions must begin to take to the streets to object to what their government is doing in their name. I am mildly optimistic that change is coming as I find it difficult to imagine that in spite of the relentless flood of mainstream media propaganda there is even a plurality of Americans that supports with any actual conviction what the United States is doing in Syria and what it intends to do in Iran. And apart from a desire to make voting in America safer and insofar as possible interference free, I also believe that most think that Russiagate is a load of hooey and would prefer to be friends with Moscow.
Why now? “Now” is a whole new ballgame, as the expression goes, because the utter insanity coming out of Washington could easily wind up killing most of us here in the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave. Specifically, in a press conference on Tuesday, Kay Bailey Hutchison, a former Senator from Texas who is currently the United States’ ambassador to NATO, declared that Washington was prepared to launch a preemptive attack on Russian military installations as a response to alleged treaty violations on the part of Moscow. Note particularly what Hutchison actually said: “At that point, we would be looking at the capability to take out a missile that could hit any of our countries. Counter measures would be to take out the missiles that are in development by Russia in violation of the treaty. They are on notice.”
And note further what she was implying, namely that Washington, acting on its own authority, has the right to attack a nuclear armed and powerful foreign country based on what are presumably negotiable definitions of what are acceptable weapons to base on one’s own soil. It would be an attack on a neighbor or competitor with whom one is not at war and which does not necessarily pose any active threat. By that standard, any country with a military capability can be described as threatening and one can attack anyone else based purely on one’s own assessment of what is acceptable or not.
It is quite remarkable how many countries in the world are now “on notice” for punishment when they do things that the United States objects to. United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley has warned that she will be “taking names” of those United Nations members that criticize U.S. policies in the Middle East. As increasing discomfort with U.S. initiatives there and elsewhere is a worldwide phenomenon, with only Israel, the Philippines, Nigeria and Kenya having a favorable view of Washington, Haley’s list is inevitably a long one. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and National Security Advisor John Bolton, when they are not fabricating intelligence and inflating threats, have likewise warned specific countries that they are being judged by Washington and will be punished at a level proportionate to their transgressions.
Hutchison is not known as a deep thinker, so one has to suspect that her expressed views were fed to her by someone in Washington. Her specific grievance against Russia relates to Moscow’s reported deployment of new land-based missiles that have a claimed range of more than 5,000 kilometers, which is enough to hit most targets in Europe. If true, the development would be in violation of the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces (INF) Treaty of 1987 and would definitely pose a potential threat to the Europeans, but the more serious question has to be the rationale behind threatening a nuclear war through preemptive action over an issue that might be subject to renewed multilateral negotiation.
Hutchison and the State Department inevitably went into double-speak mode when concerns were expressed about possible preemption against Russia. She clarified her earlier comments with an almost incomprehensible “My point: Russia needs to return to INF Treaty compliance or we will need to match its capabilities to protect U.S. & NATO interests. The current situation, with Russia in blatant violation, is untenable.”
Spokesman Heather Nauert at State then chimed in “What Ambassador Hutchison was talking about was improving overall defense and deterrence posture. The United States is committed to upholding its arms control obligations and expects Russia to do the very same thing.” Both disclaimers were needed, even if lacking in clarity, but they did not dispel the ugly taste of the initial comment regarding starting a war of preemption. Russia took note of the back and forth, with a Foreign Ministry spokesman drily observing “It seems that people who make such statements do not realize the level of their responsibility and the danger of aggressive rhetoric.” Hutchison and Nauert also do not seem aware of the fact that Russia’s frequently stated defense doctrine is to use nuclear weapons if and when it is attacked by a superior force, which might well be Moscow’s assessment of the threat posed by U.S. led NATO.
The disconnect between the White House’s often expressed desire to improve relations with Russia and the bureaucracy’s tendency to send the opposite message is typical of what has been referred to as Trump’s “dual-track presidency”. Gareth Porter has recently observed how President Trump, for all his faults in so many ways, is indeed desirous of military disengagement in some areas but he is repeatedly being overruled or outmaneuvered by the permanent bureaucracies in government, most notably the Pentagon and intelligence services. Hutchison, Haley, Pompeo and Bolton speak and act for that constituency even when they appear to be agreeing with the president.
So given the danger of war based on what Washington itself says about the state of the world and America’s presumed role in it, it is time to take the gloves off and march. That a high-level official can even stand up and speak about preventive war with a major nuclear power is disgraceful. She should be fired immediately. That she has not been fired means that someone somewhere high up in the bureaucracy agrees with what she said. Nuclear war is not an option. It is an end of all options.

Looks that way.
Good luck. You’ll need plenty of it.
Look no further than Mike Pence. The NYTimes’ anonymous op-ed clearly said there is a cabal inside Trump’s cabinet that actively works against all his wishes, esp. on foreign policy. Haley, Bolton, Pompeo, Mattis, Hutchison, Kelly, Rosenstein, Sessions, Kirstjen Nielsen were all brought in by Mike Pence, and I strongly suspect one of these people wrote that op-ed, despite their denial. Haley and Kelly didn’t even bother denying. All are warmongering neocons working for a tiny kingdom in the Mideast, God’s chosen.
I have suspected for a long time that Mike Pence is plotting a soft coup against Trump, and that Rosenstein and Jeff Sessions are both in on it. I honestly don’t know why Trump still hasn’t fired Rosenstein. The fucking weasel has got to be the most hated face among Trump supporters. Everyone knows he is the face of Deep State, except Trump, who still insist “we get along very well”. WTF is he thinking? I would really like to know.
Plotting my banner ….
Bravo for taking action and speaking truth to power, whether or not it is effective. Sure beats sitting in front of the TV doing nothing.
I, too, am mildly optimistic that change is coming. The gulf between what the people want and what Washington is doing has never been wider. This comes due to the heightened awareness by the common citizen that we are being manipulated by a foreign nation, and the Internet has contributed greatly to that apocalyptic revelation, as have writers such as yourself and Ron Unz, and a host of others too numerous to list. Slowly, but surely, the MSM is being beaten back and their propaganda is rapidly becoming far less effective. I have to credit Trump for making “fake news” a meme. Whatever else he has done (or disappointingly, not done), credit where credit is due.
I stand by my previous comment that the time for attacking Syria has now passed, and no matter the amount of verbal diarrhea spewing from talking heads in DC, or the warmongers in Israel, the situation in the ME is radically different today than it was in 2011. Israel may (I hope) attempt to send a few F35s over to Syria to take out the S-300 sites, but the first F35 that drops from a “bird strike” will be the last such adventure. I expect the withdrawal of US military misadventures after that, and with that, the end of Israel – Samson Option or not.
I would invest in Orville Redenbacher’s® Popcorn stocks (Conagra Brands).
Further to my “mild optimism” fueled by the increasing awareness by our fellow citizens:
Most Americans would support withdrawal from Afghanistan
https://today.yougov.com/topics/politics/articles-reports/2018/10/08/most-americans-would-support-withdrawal-afghanista
I suspect everyone dismissed Hutchison as a stupid political bimbo for threatening to ignite World War III, but no one can say that or they would be fired or forced to resign, and heavily criticized for insulting a woman.
The nuttiest member of the Trump administration is UN Ambassador Nikki Haley. Her latest neo-nazi stunt was to join protestors last week calling for the overthrow of the democratically elected government of Venezuela. She grabbed a megaphone at a tiny New York rally and told the few “protesters” (organized by our CIA) to say the USA is working to overthrow their President. This was so bizarre that our corporate media refused to report it. Jimmy Dore assembled this great video of CNN presenting their expert calling the President of Venezuela paranoid for saying the USA wants to overthrow his government. A few hours later, a different CNN report documented recent efforts by the USA to overthrow his government!
Empires that are in the midst of collapse often focus on external enemies, real or imagined, in order to distract from domestic troubles. Therefore, the Empire goes in search of enemies to attack. This will end very badly. Personally, I think breaking up the United States like the Soviet Union broke up is probably the best thing that could happen for world peace. Let the Red States/counties break apart from the Blue ones. Afterwards, both sides will moderate and there will be a period of world peace; in any case, neither side will have the will, manpower, or finances to rule the world even if they wanted to. This is an elegant, peaceful solution that I think Giraldi can understand. He should perhaps address this possibility.
Three of those four names mentioned were empowered in their respective positions by none other than Donald Trump himself.
It may be worth noting that when Kay Bailey, as she is known in the great state of Texas, was first elected to the US Senate she was tutored on Middle East policy by ex New Yorker and Texas politician Florence Donald Shapiro, whose wiki bio states she is the daughter of “two Holocaust (TM) survivors”…. Need more be said?
In the 1960′s there was a popular awareness of the risk of nuclear war. Americans (Anglo-Americans) were scared, and were out building nuclear shelters and studying survivalism, with the risk of nuclear war a top social issue. e.g. the 1963 success of Bob Dylan’s – “A Hard Rain’s a Gonna Fall”:
Almost as if Dylan wanted it to happen.
Well, with a further half century of US Jewish activism the US has got there, with the right level of hubris, aggressiveness and public indifference. Putin’s March 1st speech was lost on the US public. They swallow the media manufactured anti-Russian agit-prop, and have the most blasé indifference to the millions killed in America’s ME wars of aggression.
It doesn’t mean that it’s going to happen – there’s some push back against Netanyahu ( the world class criminal feted by the US Congress) and the Zioglob – but a nuclear war is a real possibility.
Aux Barricades Mes Enfants: Non! Apprenez La Vérité Mes Enfants!
And that is the trouble with people whom are poorly educated: lack of education. Giraldi you’ve done it again.
Do you understand, Giraldi, what “Aux Barricades Mes Enfants” signifies? It had nothing to do with the French Revolution, it had to do with the Franco-Austria war. In short, it was a battle cry for war, not change.
May well you march Giraldi, but will you accomplish anything? No. Personally I am sick and tired of reading ignorant and manipulative readings of Americans with a poor understanding of world politics and an incredible indignant chip on their shoulder (you’re one of them Giraldi) that can sit back and write the dribble you write from a position of utter self learnt ignorance of facts and a huge ability to pretend sympathy for the rest of the world.
As an European, you know Giraldi, one of those people that you Americans are threatening annihilation every time when somebody over here doesn’t kowtow to Washington’s demands, it is truly beginning to really grate against my sense to understanding people like yourself.
Giraldi, you are prepared to march. Fine. But do you still buy gas for your car? You know the gas, that all your Presidents since Roosevelt (whom was the first President to make the House of Saud what they are today, rich, evil, and psychopathic murders) have made deals with those psychopaths in Saudi Arabia. How many marches have there been over the decades where Americans have protested of all the wealth the Saudis have been stealing from the Arabic people, and giving to the US for cheap? How many marches have there been that Americans have been paying too little for their very cheap petroleum? Have you Giraldi ever protested for that? No. You’re a hypocrite.
Shall we continue Giraldi? Yes why not, you need to learn some real facts. You’re very quick to point fingers at people, like Hutchison, as you stated, “Hutchison is not known as a deep thinker.” Really? And I suppose you are? Bwahahahahahaha!
Where are your solutions Giraldi? Let me ask you Giraldi, you are quick to cast dispersions upon Republican members of government, so I suppose your a Democrat? When have the Democrats in the last 100 years ever did anything that wasn’t warmongering?
It is clear, like it was in your last article, “One Click Closer To Annihilation”, and my response to it “One Step Closer To Retribution”, that you are devoid of common-sense, and poorly educated in the facts of the world. Let me enlighten you Giraldi.
Instead of marching for something useless as your governments warmonger, which has been going on since 1770, how about you start educating your fellow Americans about some truths:
1) The First Amendment Of The United States Of America: “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.”
It clearly states, “the right of the people peaceably to assemble.” Why then do those Demcrate AntiFa thugs are allowed to bully, intimidate and bash those whom are “peacefully assembling”? Why aren’t they in prison for breaking the First Amendment? Why don’t you protest against the bullying of the Left?
Then there is the clause, “prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press.” Why is the government allowing companies like Google, Facebook, Twitter disenfranchising the right of Americans to say what they like on these social platforms? Do you protest for that? These companies are breaking the First Amendment, and yet no body is marching, or more pertinently putting these monsters of social injustice in prison!
Giraldi, you march because you don’t like the present administration, but you don’t do, write, say anything about protecting the rights that ALL Americans have? Shame on you! You’re a disgrace to the freedom of everyone on this Earth!
2) The US Continually Breaks International: Here is just a sample of cases;
- US Breaks International Law Against Antigua (G. Bush): Since 2003, the US have been refusing to pay Antigua hundreds of millions dollars in damages ordered the WTO. Read all about why, US-Thuggery-On-Antigua
-US Invasion of Iraq (G. Bush): not much to speak of here, we all know the truth now.
- The illegal (both Internationally and US law) bombing of the former Yugoslavia regions (Serbia, Bosnia-Herzegovina) in 1999 (B. Clinton): False allegations and out right lies where used to weaken a strengthening Serbia (ally to Russia).
- Illegal invasion and occupation of Syria (B. Obama, D. Trump).
I could go on for many pages writing about how the US doesn’t follow law. Laws that the US has signed to agree to up hold. For example, the 1955 Treaty of Amity, was signed by the Eisenhower Administration. Yet as soon as the US doesn’t like something (that is, Trump), they break the Treaty and cry foul. Foul for whom? A treaty is a compromise between two parties, not to satisfy the whims of only one party. Yet do you march for that Giraldi? Nope.
Giraldi, you live in a country of thieves. The USA is continually going around the world stealing all the resources it requires, including human labour for less than slave wages. Think about this everyone. During those wicked days of slavery in the South, the slave owner had to pay at least food and board to house his slaves. Whereas, the likes of Apple don’t even have to do that, they get away with paying a few dollars a day per Chinese slave. Can any American in the US of A, live on $2 a day? Nooooo, but people like you Giraldi, are prepared to march for a cause that has NEVER IN THE HISTORY OF THE USA been bestowed upon the rest of the world, that is, freedom from US oppression, thuggery and war. So Giraldi, why don’t you march against Apple? You know the Slave merchants.
Before you Americans, like Giraldi, think you can do something about helping the rest of the world -please don’t, you Americans have helped us enough, like fostering and aiding evil elites to create useless wars like WWI and WWII – try fixing your own country. You have a government that doesn’t even follow the Constitution, deigning the rights of Americans, that is enshrined in the Constitution. Fix up your country and start following your own laws!
As for you Giraldi, go back to school and learn about hypocrisy, rhetoric and history. It is clear you have very little understanding of these concepts. Marching for something that has never been achieved in your country is stupid. Its even worse, when the very next day you go buy gasoline for your car, clothes and technology that you pay cents on the dollar for in the cost of making those products, and enjoy an unrealistic life style while your country enslaves, tortures, genocides itself to prosperity.
GIRALDI, YOU WRITE, THINK, ANALYSE AND LIVE LIKE A HYPOCRITE. You’re everything the ordinary European on the streets hates; pompous, arrogant and self-servering, we have enough of these ****holes in the European Parliament. The last thing we need is people like you trying to help us. If you’d people would just follow your Constitution, you wouldn’t be needing to march for anyone!
Just this week we have had Pompeo given the cold shoulder in China, Modi loudly declaring India will remain non aligned and presumably MBS detecting a coup attempt with that journalist disappeared. Trump had some good instincts but the borg only encouraged his worst instincts.
Beta Orbiter status maintained, even after marriage. Yuck.
Phil, insane they are. One struggles to discern how this could even possibly be “good for the Jews.” So even in that context, these people are nuts. Who benefits? The answer could only be in the dark spiritual realm of the non-human. As when Solzhenitsyn speculated that Stalin reported only to Satan. Maybe these more banal folks report to his subalterns.
Mademoiselle Liberte, compliments to your plastic surgeon. He wasn’t Jewish, BTW ?
There is not a chance in hell Trump is so stupid as to not know that the people he has surrounded himself with are the Deep State. This is Kabuki theater and Trump is one on them.
“Americans of all political persuasions must begin to take to the streets to object to what their government is doing in their name.”
Problem is ‘Americans’ don’t agree on anything, and even if they did, they’d never stoop to allying themselves with the other side. America has been transformed into a multi-cultural empire where everyone hates each other. Therefore, the public is easily divided by the Ruling Class. This is why the people’s views aren’t expressed by the government: various groups are distracted by petty tribal emotionalism. I think this was by design. Americans may want out of Afghanistan, but as soon as one side supports it, the other will oppose it. Multicultural empires don’t work. That’s not “white nationalism” but a simple statement of fact recognized by various peoples around the world and throughout history.
Now don’t be coy; tell us how you really feel.
“Three of those four names mentioned were empowered in their respective positions by none other than Donald Trump himself.”
True. Trump = generally good instincts but bad judge of character and easily manipulated due to his extreme vanity. These people sucked up to him, so he gave them jobs, despite the fact that they undermine his policies. Like I said, bad judge of character. If you’re the evil deep state, probably the best thing that can be done at present is to hire PIs and dig up dirt on each one of them, leading to new blood and a staff that doesn’t manipulate Trump for ill gotten purposes. The press and deep state have focused on Trump when they probably should have been focusing on his staff. No one ever accused them of being particularly intelligent; evil yes, but not so wise.
“I have suspected for a long time that Mike Pence is plotting a soft coup against Trump, and that Rosenstein and Jeff Sessions are both in on it.”
Too late, if so. Their coup has failed by this point. They’ll have to tolerate the man as he has made it clear that he is too temperamental and vain to ever resign; he’s no Nixon and republicans won’t turn on him, no matter what he does or says. Full stop. No matter what dirt they dig up on him, he’ll either deny it or turn it around on his enemies. Kavanaugh is representative of this. I believe the man is likely innocent of anything serious, but notice how Trump, despite seemingly throwing the man under the bus (upon advice by his staff), immediately reverted back to his instincts and publicly declared Dr. Ford to be a liar with almost no ill effects. He’s now more popular among Republicans than any other Republican in history, including both Reagan and Lincoln. This is why the Mueller report won’t be out until later this year, a very long while after it was started. They thought he’d be gone by now, so they’ve got nothing left after firing all their ammunition and him refusing to quit in response. Even if they did try something, you shouldn’t expect anything other than a strong retaliatory reaction – a military coup or secession.
The only real option these people ever had – assuming they are as nefarious as we seem to think they are – was to find a republican even more popular than him to oppose him. Unfortunately for the deep state, they’ve created a system where all of their controlled politicians are incompetent, out-of-touch, and hated buffoons. And Pence, Sessions, Cruz, etc. aren’t as popular as him. Period.
Dear Mr. Giraldi ,
One could argue, that ANY march against the (immensely corrupt) Pentagon for its immense corruption, by anybody,(not just women), is not only worthwhile, but long overdue.
Does anyone know what it means that our Pentagon has refused an audit for the past 18 years ?
It means that (even as I write this) our beloved Pentagon could be billing out “60 million dollars “for a half bar of ivory soap sent over to scrub the arse of some new Afghan recruit, just hours before he “defects” to the Taliban… for the 10th time..in 10 years….and NO ONE can or would ever know about it.
Its scary.
The layers upon layers of fraud and pilfering may well be so humongous ….they defy description.
One begins to recognize that perhaps the true purpose of these stupid “endless” wars is nothing more than to CONTINUE to “bill out” the 60 million (to the taxpayer) for the “Afghan, arse cleaning soap”, indefinitely…and nothing more..
Hence our , current, $22,000,000,000,000.00 National Debt.
All designed to “engorge” our war making “elite” with “trillions” of (un-audited) pilfered and pocketed “taxpayer” dough.
Hands down, the greatest , single “18 year pillage ” on our national solvency, in American History.
The “rot at the top” is ….. staggering …….and utterly disgraceful.
The lack of accountability, even worse.
Yup, they are pushing fake news from all sides. I was the first one on this site who claimed the Shia Crescent was empowered by USA. About a week ago, Ehud Barak was discussing on CNN about Shia Banana, as he didn’t have the courage to call it Shia Crescent. However, he was tempted to call it Shai Kotex, but being chicken shit, he was afraid a blow back from feminism.
Yesterday Debka reported, “Russia imports Iranian teams for S-300s in Syria – 24 launchers in all. Shocked alarm in US, Israel.”
‘I will tag along in support in spite of my gender. ‘
I stopped reading at this point, in spite of “my gender.”
here’s where I stopped reading Dorian’s screed on Giraldi’s ignorant use of language:
come to think of it, shoulda stopped at the first line:
“the problem with people who are poorly educated is lack of education.”
brilliant.
He obviously does, but you obviously don’t understand what “Non! Apprenez La Vérité Mes Enfants!” means, self-righteous as you are.
Are you really so dense? Giraldi is anti-war.
You don’t use gas? Neither for transportation or heat or cooking? Good for you. But I don’t believe you.
Wow, rest of your post is just utter idiocy and hysteria. Recommend medication.
Speaking of chips on shoulders – have good look in the mirror.
You do have some valid points in that rant of yours – now climb off your high horse, make your points without needlessly and pointlessly attacking the writer or your readers, who have about as much control over the political process as you do, and are as much to blame for it. Use persuasion, not accusations, and you might actually have some effect. As it is, your effort is wasted.
The Orangutan surrounded himself with Borg. Starting with all the Jews that surrounded him long before he became President (personal doctor, personal lawyer, foundation head, daughter, son-in-law) and he’s been taking Netanyahu’s cock deep and hard ever since taking office. If he’s not a crypto-Jew I don’t know who is; maybe it’s because they control his wealth and have enough dirt on him to put him in jail, in any case, he is a traitor.
YouTuber Florida Maquis is the only person I know talking about the dangers of the U.S. once again sticking its big fat nose where it does not belong and how it could lead to the start of WWIII right here in our own back yard. I suggest everyone watch his entire series on these latest chain of events.
Oh, get over it, that term was used long before the … wait for it! … gender wars and “gender identity”.
i have heard this Trump has been overruled so many times, that I wonder if I could overrule him?
Overruled is a copout.. if Trump came to the American people and said these bastards are all trying to steal your country, I need you the people to help.. I believe finding a Neocon, a member of the MSM, or a member of the Deep State in America within a few days would be next to impossible and at the same time, I also believe that is a time when America will be nuked; these people are vicious, certainly not people in love with America.
My personal opinion is that Trump is the last stand, if he fails or betrays Americans, it will be over for the USA. something very different will emerge and no telling the blood shed in between.
Five votes (pres. vp, 2 senate, 1 house) per American has proved to be insufficient for Americans to keep those who conduct the affairs of the USA on track.
Unfortunate boast, Jeffrey Cohen, wrote:
“I was the first one on this site who claimed the Shia Crescent was empowered by USA.”
Above, no way, J.C.! Uh, careful you don’t drop into Al Gore’s league of claiming to invent things?
Fyi, minus use of the catchy Neoconservative label “Shia Crescent,” other U.R. commenters previously brought attention to this diabolical ZUSA-engineered project!
The Congresional act of 1871 created a new entity the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA (with capital letters), with its own flag and capital, the District of Columbia. A private company.
America has many Libraries but very indifferent people. All they care about is extreme consumerism, high tech sex and the beauty pageant.
When Mayer Rothschild bought the British Empire, in 1812, another private piece of land is the real capital of the Empire, the one square mile in London that is called City. These two private pieces of land run the world and their ownership is not Anglosaxon. True Anglosaxons like Patrick Henry, Jackson and Jefferson were thrown under the bus.
Let’s take a look at the lit of folks subject to “sanctions” by the crypto-Jew Orangutan, who is working overtime to destroy America even worse than the Demorats could:
Russia
Syria
Iran
China
Turkey
Venezuela
India (threatened for trade with Iran, Russia)
Balkans
Belarus
Burundi
Cuba
Congo
Iraq
Lebanon
Libya
North Korea
Somalia
Sudan
Darfur
Yemen
Zimbabwe
Central Africa Republic
The fool is sanctioning the whole world, except for those who really deserve it: Israel and Saudi Arabia. He will destroy the dollar as reserve currency as all countries move to escape US totalitarian tyranny over the financial system.
Trump: Fuck America Up Again (For the Tribe)
PS
a quick tutorial for the poorly educated due to lack of education:
A snapshot of neo-Zionist fanaticism and its self-serving agenda for humanity.
America will be at war as long as the Zionists remain in control of every facet of the U.S. government and it appears that the Zionists will remain in control for the foreseeable future as they control not only the government but also the MSM and our money supply via their privately owned FED and IRS.
As Orwell said , wars are not meant to be won, wars are the governments way to keep the proles under draconian control via war hysteria and the fake threat of an enemy and this fear mongering is turned into increased big brother control over the proles lives and of course more profits for the Zionist banking cabal and their MIC.
Our future is the same as our past, zionist banker created wars and being taxed to the hilt for the created threats, ie ISIS aka AL CIADA aka the war on zionist created terrorists. The zionists and their assorted terrorists have destroyed the mideast and now they are going to destroy America.
Dear Chuck,
Lots of people have discussed Shia Crescent many, many moons ago and this is nothing new. Read my quote carefully again, “I was the first one on this site who claimed the Shia Crescent was empowered by USA.”
There is NO such thing as Z + USA. As I have previously mentioned, the Deep State engineered the 9/11 to pin it on ISISraHell, and Netanyahu happily walked in to it and basically took the credit for it.
Iran is now at the doorsteps of ISISraHell!
USA will never have war with Iran.
How right you are!!!! But than why did you elevate poor Giraldi to a position of responsibility for all evil US presidents do.
Once in a while there is some good news
http://www.thenyherald.com/2018/09/11/pedophiles-decapitated-corpse-found-on-judges-doorstep-after-bail-hearing/
Brilliant!!!!
You just spelled out inevitable destruction of US society, which also means destruction of US.
But I am not happy. I am sad!
I do hate notion when the choice is everything or nothing.
And that is the trouble with tautologies: unwitting repetition (and humor).
Basically, the Shia Crescent was intentionally empowered by USA. All three, Bush Jr., Obama and Trump are Deep State. The Evil Hellary won both the Electoral College and Popular Vote, but she threw in the towel to avoid prison. The elections are shams. In 2000 Al Gore won the Electoral College and in 2004 John Kerry won the Electoral College, but they both didn’t get to be Presidents.
Al Gore didn’t need the Electoral College votes of Florida if he had won his own State of Tennessee. And, Ohio was called for John Kerry, but later at night California time, they switched it to Bush Jr.
Exactly the case. That is why DJT is not viewed as a treaty-worthy party. Trump’s “John, I need you in my cabinet” towards Bolton pretty much sums it up both for Trump and for US “cadre pool”. Interestingly, Putin few days ago at Energy Summit was explicit when stated to the effect that why don’t you impose every possible sanction on us–this will completely untie our hands. This is in a large sense message to Trump that he is not to be trusted. Indeed, he is not even in control of own Administration, which he himself assembled.

ZUSA’s at war since the CIA managed to oust Mohammed Mossadegh from power, and has tried everything to destabilize the Islamic Republic be Iran, including the rather recent support for opposition M.E.K., and now PreZident Bonespur’s * having hammered the Shia nation with warmongering economic sanctions!
Do not be like Sam The Sham Shama, Jeffery Cohen! When the Maven’s didactic U.R. comments begin to sink into a mucky hole, he unwisely digs himself deeper!
(zzzZigh)
Good evening and go under The (self) Protection, Jeffery!
* Counterpunch editor J. St. Clair invented the intelligent & funny name, President Bonespur. Uh… not me!
It’s nice that you think of yourself as European but before you leave school in Brussels – or is it Antwerp – and head off to the Congo it would be a good idea to take some extra English classes. It mightn’t make you employable in transnational businesses but it would allow for some reading to repair the large gaps in your knowledge of which you are so completely unaware. Your idea that the US depends on Saudi oil springs to mind and also your ludicrous misunderstanding of US Constitutional law and specifically how the First Amendment applies. As a devotee of knowledge from the internet you ought to be able to learn a bit on line but you might have a problem knowing what to rely on without a firmer educational base.
Latest News: Nikki Haley Resign As UN Ambassador
Mrs Malaprop would be very impressed.
“I also believe that most think that Russiagate is a load of hooey and would prefer to be friends with Moscow.”
While I personally think Russiagate is B.S. and dangerous and would prefer for the United States to get along peacefully with Russia, Girardi is mistaken if he thinks most Americans share this sentiment. Media propaganda has been so effective in demonizing Putin, demonizing Russia, and linking Russia to Trump’s election victory that most if not all mainstream Democrats do view Russia as the enemy.
However, on the positive side, the American public will not support any wars that involve significant US boots on the ground. There is no public will for it. Nor will be there any nuclear exchanges because this is suicidal. Therefore our future conflicts will continue to be fought with missiles, planes, drones, special forces, and proxies. This will continue until… the US government collapses for one reason or another.
Dorian , Dorian , Dorian Gray ? euronarcisist ? Oh faustian dreams ! , english ?
Angloamericans le même combat ( same fight ) against the world , ( and the french petits merdeux napoleons aussi . FUKUS countries )
Please S2C. No casting “dispersions” (LOL!) on Dorian. T’aint polite.
And BTW, I just heard that Nikki “H-Bomb” Haley has resigned. May Bolton be next!
Before sneering at Mr. Giraldi for failing to meet your knuckleheaded criteria for being a “deepthinker,” you might want to brush up on the difference between “drivel” and “dribble,” not to mention the “your/you’re” thing.
Also, since you took the trouble to paste in the 1st amendment, you might have taken note of the fact that it starts out with “Congress shall make no law” restricting free speech, peaceful assembly, etc. “Antifa” are not Congress, and neither are Fakebook, Twatter, etc. So they’re not “breaking” the first amendment. Only Congress can do that.
Rumors are that Ivanka Trump will take over as the New UN Ambassador at the beginning of next year.
Where do you get that “John, I need you in my Cabinet” from? I ask because the follow up question is “then why did Trump not appoint him to Cabinet?” He is National Security Adviser, not, ipso facto, a member of Cabinet.
LOL, Just saw POTUS with Nikki Halley praising her. His last comment before giving the mic to Nikki was “Nikki is lucky that she got to know the world, Russia, China, India.”
What a dig! Muhaha, Muhaha ……

Thanks for making my day, FLGeezer.
Greetings from Traditional Democrat Party stronghold, Scranton, Pa, Caldre!
At present given M.I.A. top notch commenters, Jacques Sheete and Rurik, I figured it’s good to touch base with you and ideally elicit a response. Does not hurt to ask!
Fyi, at it’s international airport, Israeli Thought Police detained American student Lara Alqasem, age 22, who holds a visa to matriculate at Hebrew University. (Zigh)
You have a right to remain silent, buy my question is as follows:
Why are they deceptively continuing to get away with calling our press the “US press”? The fascade ought to stop now, and it should be accurately called the Zionist Corporate Press.
Nonetheless, Caldre, please look at the Mondoweiss article (below) which freely covered Israel’s detention of the American student, Lara Alqasem.
https://mondoweiss.net/2018/10/american-political-attention/
Thanks, Caldre!
This is a well known fact.
John Bolton as a Cabinet Member, could not have gotten the Congress Approval, same happened when he was recommended as UN Ambassador as he didn’t get the Congress Approval. While Congress was on break, he was appointed as UN Ambassador as Temp. NSA post doesn’t require Congress Approval, but it is one of the highest post.
Although being anti-war is a good instinct in general these anti-war marches are usually appalling affairs. Every lefty, Maoist, animal-rights, antifa group come out and try to jump out in front, claiming to be leading it. It’s always an incoherent mishmash. Who knows how many government agents are also in there doing who knows what? Millions marched against the impending war against Iraq and look what happened; we’re still there after all these years, still spending billions.
Saying Hutchison wasn’t regarded as a ‘deep thinker’ is a huge understatement judging by this remark of hers which marks her as a reckless blabbering idiot. Ambassador to NATO? This is the very low quality of individual we have as Senators and now they’ve put embarrassing loudmouths like this on an international platform. One can’t help but be pessimistic with all this but hey, give the march a try and see what happens.
It is the quote from one of the US media, which one I don’t remember–you can easily search it on Yahoo, this is where I get my “scoop” on daily news inside US. It was one of the “analytical: pieces on Trump’s FP. I don’t know where this:
Is coming from, but isn’t it reasonable to assume (with very high probability) that Bolton was not a member of Cabinet before his appointment? Isn’t it what appointment is for–to appoint one to be a member of Cabinet? But if to bypass this mind-bending issue, the point is absolutely not in that–it is in the fact that Trump completely on won volition and with enthusiasm appointed to an important position a man who is utterly unqualified to advice on any national security issue and is known to be a neocon and war-monger. This is what really matters here.
“Do you understand, Giraldi, what “Aux Barricades Mes Enfants” signifies? It had nothing to do with the French Revolution, it had to do with the Franco-Austria war. ”
I had to look it up:
““Liberty Leading the People,” perhaps Delacroix’s most famous painting, depicts an allegorical female figure who raises the French tricolor in one hand and a musket with a bayonet in another as she leads a crowd of revolutionaries over ramparts strewn with dead bodies in the 1830 revolution against Charles X.”
I have distrusted Mr. Giraldi ever since he said that “Israel” had the right to defend itself and protect its interests. He must be a crypto-Zionist!
“I stand by my previous comment that the time for attacking Syria has now passed,”
There never was “A the time for attacking Syria “, you barbaric warmongering piece of filth.
Before we rejoice, I am told that the witch gets to name her successor. Something tells me that worse is possible…
Interesting idea, I think you’re right. The left hasn’t given up it’s constant hysterical hatred of Trump. maybe it’s because of the left’s man in the White House.
The INF Treaty prohibits land-based…while the Russians have made an obvious treaty-compliant air-launched set of intermediate missiles…air launched from 70,000 feet. Thus a missile massing about 7 tons has the capabilities of a ground launched missile massing 25 tons. Ruski smart, Yankee stupid. Ask Napoleon…or the nazis…
And sea launched missiles are legal…so Ivan built missiles launched from small riverain ships and boats…lookit map of Russ…lotsa rivers, canals, lakes, and inland seas…
Witch while siting next to POTUS, praised very highly both Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner, and called him a genius. Jared praised lasted very long.
Rumors are that Ivanka Trump will take over as the New UN Ambassador at the beginning of next year.
Economically and socially speaking pre-revolutionary France is incomparable with luxuriously rich U$.

I agree that the American Public will not support any wars that involve significant boots on the ground, nor any that involve the destruction of the entire planet.
You are quite correct,there is zero public will for either scenario.
There is also zero public will for having to pay for the wars we were lied into…which points to an essential underlying crisis facing the nation.
Our “war of aggression” elites ,in order to activate their “wars of aggression” knew they would never get them off the ground if the American taxpayer was asked,up front, to pay for them….No way!..It was never going happen.
Instead, they opted for the great “stealth” pilfer.
They financed the wars by stealing trillions from future generations of Americans..who had absolutely no say in how their money should be spent .
This is quite an egregious assault on our posterity.
The monstrous debt crisis, looming over us all, is one for which war of aggression “elites” are directly responsible, and one for which they have “no” solution.
The correct solution, however, is crystal clear….They should be made to pay for all the wars they started.
Then, to be sure, they would never start one, again.
This is a very easy question, Mr. Orloski! Because the alleged headquarters for these propaganda operations are physically located in the US.
Have a nice day!
If you and your angry friends mean to take over government by force, you will likely be suppressed by police or military. I didn’t actually read all the way thru – did you bring the perfidious jews into the argument? If so advised by a commenter, I promise to read the whole thing.
Hi Caldre!
I note you cautiously deployed the words “alleged headquarters.”
Shazam! For me, such geographical identification has exacerbated the pain of knowing the exact location of all 3- branches of ZUSA government, including regulatory & intelligence/police agencies, and…, uh, Hollywood.
Fyi, am a part-time public school bus driver, and I can see how Trump administration “operations” are primed to further wipeout Social Security & Medicare trust-funds in order to invigorate more intense & expensive Israeli wars. (Zigh)
Thanks.
Didn’t realise you were married to Linda Sarsour…
Good news, Hindu Haley (yeah I know she’s a Sikh) quit. Too bad she’ll be replaced by another Neocon stooge, or even worse, a full-blooded Neocohen as unfortunately Trump’s administration is infested with them. Remember Donald, it’s America First not Israel!
traducteur wrote: “I have distrusted Mr. Giraldi ever since he said that “Israel” had the right to defend itself and protect its interests. He must be a crypto-Zionist!”
Greetings, traducteur.
Above, and as you might know, Philip Giraldi is, like me, a ZUSA citizen!
The ZUS Executive Branch recognized Israel as a nation.
Subsequently, despite Israel’s having become an apartheid (rogue) regime & fully supported by the ZUSA, it’s not strange for even Louisiana’s David Duke to proclaim Israel has the “right to defend itself.”
Suggest “crypto-Zionists” never complained about 9/11′s freak “Dancing Israelis” and US’s Zionized military as did the “offensive” author, Philip Giraldi.
Thanks just the same, traducteur! But indeed, the Jewish Lobbies & ADL have a big crypto hard-on to get P.G.
Agree…..Although I don’t feel as optimistic…..there is some Israeli plotting for long term going on with the Haley resignation…..they are positioning her for something bigger.
The Jew media has been talking her up for a presidential run……they have also been talking up Jared…lots of puff pieces on his brilliance
And this is going on in both the liberal and repub media…..both are strangely in the Haley and Jared fan club….there can be only one reason for this.
George Kennan had a similar suggestion in his book Around the Cragged Hill, back in the 1990s, mostly on the grounds that eight of so regional states in North America wouldn’t have the resources to attempt to rule the planet they way Imperial Washington now seeks to.
With some amusement I read what a Frenchman, or -women, here accuses Giraldi and/or the USA of.
As if not Portugal, Spain, the Netherlands, the British, the Belgians tried to form, with more or less succes, and with more ore less terror and massacring, empires.
When exactly USA empire building began, I’d say with the Monroe Declaration, 1820 or 1830: South America is ours.
Now the big difference between USA imperialism and the other imperialims was just a matter of words, the USA liberated, brought civilisation, it did not colonise.
In the 20th century this USA benevolence succeeded in destroying all empires, through WWI and WWII, then just the USA empire remained.
Of course, no empire, ‘the international community’.
Pity that a few major powers did not want the USA yoke, China, Russia, India, and of course tiny Iran.
Countries like Indonesia are under the USA yoke, North Korea resists, as does Syria.
We in the Netherlands more or less happily do what Uncle Sam wants us to do: join in wars in Afghanistan, in Irak, in Syria, buy seemingly worthless Patriot missiles, cruise missiles wa cannot use without USA permission, and JFS’s that hardly fly and defend us against what ?
But, the USA is the biggest customer of Rotterdam harbour.
This is one side of the USA.
The other side is USA society, a society stuck in the second half of the 19th century, the time of the robber barons: Rockefeller, Flagler, Carnegy.
There has never been a significant change in the USA, the only thing that counts is money.
USA democracy, who has the most money wins the elections.
That the richest country in the world is unable to provide decent health care for the whole population, incomprehensible in Europe.
No or bad pension systems, the same.
But money for weaponry, never a problem.
But writing this, I remember
Barbara Hinckley, Sheldon Goldman, ‘American Politics and Government, Structure, Processes, Institutions and Policies’, Glenview Ill., 1990
Most of what I now wrote is already there, I’m wasting my time.
Well, to my mind one of the most totally insane U.S. actions was our recent imposition of new economic sanctions against China for buying Russian military equipment:
https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-russia-sanctions/u-s-sanctions-china-for-buying-russian-fighter-jets-missiles-idUSKCN1M02TP
I’m not sure I’ve ever heard of anything like that occurring in all of human history. It’s one thing to treat NATO members like vassal states, but China’s economy is now significantly larger than ours and growing far faster, and I really don’t think they appreciate now having been reduced to the status of a political vassal of Washington…
It’s Neocons out of control and competing with each other on who can outdo the other. Trump has got to kick these vermin out, Neocon boot licker Bolton first, but I doubt this will happen. As I said before, Mnuchin is the real powerful and dangerous ‘actual’ Neocon as he devises all these ‘sanctions’.
Recent US ‘wars’ have not involved boots on the ground, they involve spies in the corners, advisors in the consulates and embassies, drones in the skies, controllers manning (term used loosely) joy-sticks (term used obscenely) in air-conditioned offices thousands of miles away, planes dropping bombs from god’s great heaven (more obscenity).
Moreover, and judging strictly from obsessive and singular C-Span-watching, the American public that calls in to C Span does not know and cares even less that USA is killing people in multiple obscene ways; they are fanatically invested in expressing Hate — raw, visceral, ignorant HATE for Trump, because he “grabs pussy,” and the deplorable people who voted for him.
Years ago Zbigniew Brzezinski said that the biggest danger to USA is the ignorance of its citizens.
Corporate media, and that includes allegedly “fairest of them all” C Span, plays the major role in making and keeping Americans misinformed; US education system comes in a close second.
Ron Unz and Unz Forum are the antidote.
But they’re doing it to India and Turkey too, both for buying military goods from Russia and energy from Iran. Neither really being a US vassal.
US is an equal opportunity tyrant!
The Mushroom has certainly jumped the shark on sanctions. He is also sanctioning Germany (NordStream 2, Iran), France and UK (Iran), Venezuela, Cuba, etc., etc. Can’t even keep up with the list.
LOL, DeNial is not just a river in Egypt. The Mushroom put them in!
My optimism does not come from some magical change in what Trump and cohorts are doing – it comes from the rising awareness of jewish influence in our politics, and we are many and they are few.
As for the resignation of the witch, there is no question that she and a host of other women are being groomed for the presidency. Hey, we have had a catholic, several crypto-jews and freemasons, and a (half) black president, time to hoist a woman to that role – after all the presidency should be an example of affirmative action, no? [\</sarc> If not for such pantomime, what would a puppet head of state do in office, when not being a gopher for the deep state?
Yea….maybe Jared….. or Miss Lindsey will be black mailed into giving up his seat and being the UN amb so Haley can take his place in the senate.
Whoever it is will be a Jew or a water carrier for Israel…..that much we know.
The public will has never been considered by the politicians.
All protest are either ignored or answered with double speak spin.
Indeed. Time was when we were not so dependent on China for nearly everything, having outsourced nearly all of our manufacturing to them and others in exchange for corporate profits for the globalists. Now, we are full of bluster and idle threats. Sure, China will be (temporarily) hurt if the US market is closed to them (they have been lending us money to buy from them), but if the sanctions on Russia is anything to go by, it will push China to greater self-sufficiency, while inflation goes through the roof over here and all but the elite are reduced to abject poverty.
You know, that could be the silver lining. Empty bellies are the catalysts for revolution.
Also India.
India risks U.S. sanctions with $5-billion purchase of Russian missiles …
https://www.reuters.com/…india-russia/india-risks-us-sanctions-with-5-billion-purchas…
6 days ago – India risks U.S. sanctions with $5-billion purchase of Russian missiles … told reporters India was closing in on the deal to buy the air defense
Niccki Haley managed in less than 2yrs to make the USA a pariah in the UN. Not only the USA but the world must rise up before it becomes another genocide (Rwanda, Kosovo), Israel will not rest until they exterminate (Final Solution) the Palestinian people, and dooms the Middle East into a regional war zone. Israel had declared itself above and beyond any rule of LAW national/international. The world and specially the leading Western Nations China, Russia, Brazil, etc. MUST bring back REASON civility, decency, the INTERNATIONAL laws to reign in a rogue, paranoi, violent nation like Israel that had unleash a dangerous chain reaction that may trigger NUCLEAR WW III,,,It is time to BREAK all international relations with Israel: NO commerce, no diplomatic relations, no sports, cultural events, NOn economic, political, social interactions with Israel NONE…until they start behaving with some level of human decency, stop the mass killings in Gaza, WBank, Syria, Yemen etc. Its time for world moral leadership to emerge to prevent Israels criminality NOW.
That was the original plan of the Founding Fathers to construct a confederation of independent States wherein concentrations of political and military power would be impossible to achieve. This was the first and most important “separation of powers” that, once destroyed, rendered separation of powers between the three branches of government obsolete.
That deal has global implications:
https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/defence/india-russia-formally-ink-the-5-2-billion-deal-for-the-s-400/articleshow/66082930.cms
Such nonsense and another fine example of someone who doth protest far too much, while at the same time launching a pre-emptive strike on Giraldi. All this, while not having read the article in the first place, you just can’t make this stuff up. Promise to go straightaway to bed and without your milk at that.
Cute, DeNial.
Like I said before, we shall see what actually occurs.
Probably the #1 wish for most readers and commenters on this site.
Ding dong, Haley is out! Hallelujah. Ambassadors are supposed to make peace, this warmonger from hell did nothing but tried to start wars with everybody and his mother while she was the country’s top envoy to the world. She’s John McCain in a dress. Not to mention completely lacks tact, “the US is taking names“? So embarrassing.
Perhaps she was the one who wrote the NYT op-ed, and got caught (she never denied it). This was a face saving way for her to exit. Trump did his usual Kabuki theater with the “she’s done a fantastic job”, allowed her to resign rather than firing her in exchange for her not running in 2020, not that she’d come anywhere close to winning anyway. Maybe she’s going to run as Pence’s running mate 2020 or 2024. They make quite the warmongering neocon pair from hell.
Now we can only pray Trump replaces her with someone who will actually carry out his campaign promise of no more wars — Tulsi Gabbard. She was under serious consideration during the transition but Pence pushed for Haley. Now if Pence objects to Gabbard once more he can go to hell. Never trust anyone who’s been to Israel 8 times to run your foreign policy.
When Putin made the offhand remark…”Maybe it was the Jews”…..his remark wasn’t played up much as so called ‘antisemitic’ remarks usually are. Why?….because the Jewish controlled media didn’t want it to become a topic. I guarantee Putin knows everything the Jewish oligarchs are up to and is no doubt getting some satisfaction in how they and the Israelis are screwing America.
Analysis : The Countless Israeli Connections to Mueller’s Probe of Trump and Russia
The Israel-lobbyists, Netanyahu cronies, psyops manipulators and well-connected oligarchs — could it all be just one big coincidence?
Haaretz
*Know your oligarch: A guide to the Jewish billionaires in the Trump-Russia probe
*Mueller investigators questioned witnesses in Israel and seized computers, report says
*Jared Kushner’s business interests in Israel revealed in full
(excerpts)
The Israeli media usually takes scant interest in Robert Mueller’s investigations. It prefers to dwell on Donald Trump’s supposedly pro-Israeli policies. Last week’s report in the New York Times about the participation of Joel Zamel, the Australian-born “Israeli specialist in social media manipulation,” in an August 3, 2016 meeting at Trump Tower in New York was an exception to the rule. The FBI, the Times reported, had even come to Israel to search the offices of Zamel’s company. Here was a direct Israeli link to the scandal that has bewitched much of America since Trump was first elected.
The moment of fleeting interest was followed up by a report, published by Walla! News, that another Israeli-based company called Inspiration, run by former IDF intelligence officers, had been employed by a super PAC that supported Trump’s election. The report alleged that after retiring from the race, Housing Secretary and then-candidate Ben Carson personally presented Trump with Inspiration’s plan for voter manipulation in swing states. A source in the company told Walla! that Inspiration had received “enormous amounts” of information from the Super PAC, which it then used to compose strategies and slogans that would elevate Trump and “float all kinds of things” about Hillary Clinton.
The two separate cases of Israeli involvement fed into sometimes anti-Semitic conspiracy theories that seek to place Israel on the same level as Russia in its intervention in the 2016 presidential elections. In Israel’s case, however, there is no indication or allegation of direct government involvement or of Mueller’s interest. Nonetheless, beyond Zamel and Inspiration, a disturbing number of the main players implicated so far in Mueller’s investigation, many of them of Russian origin, have a direct link to Israel in their past or present.
Interestingly, a BBC story published this week about payments made to Michael Cohen by Ukraine in order to secure a long White House meeting with Trump for Ukrainian leader Petro Poroshenko notes that the approach to Trump’s lawyer was made through attendees at a Chabad function in Port Washington, New York.
(The Chabad is Kushners Jewish contact)

Exactly! What makes the situation so *totally* insane is that one of America’s relatively few great advantages is the dollar’s role as the international currency, and they’re basically destroying it.
Another pillar of the dollar’s reserve role is the Saudi requirement that their oil be purchased in dollars and since that 33-year-old MSM idiot has apparently started dismembering his prominent critics in foreign countries, I doubt if he’ll be around much longer.
Once the international use of the dollar collapses so will its value, given our horrendous budget and trade deficits, and Americans will discover just how totally impoverished they currently are. At which point, it wouldn’t much surprise me if most of our incompetent ruling elites need to flee or be guillotined. I just hope they don’t start a nuclear war along the way.
The only good thing about having an insane leadership elite is that they often destroy themselves more quickly than they can destroy the people they rule.
To lose the Strap-on, then to lose the Bolt-on… oh dear, I guess we are screwed!
Agree about Haley. Thank goodness she’s out. Good riddance!
“…the American public that calls in to C Span does not know and cares even less that USA is killing people in multiple obscene ways..”
Agree.
A repost from Off Guardian on the exceptional American “humanitarianism” (rhymes with “cannibalism”): https://off-guardian.org/2018/10/03/mi6-will-be-so-proud-urban-harding-continue-the-ludicrous-skripal-narrative/
mark, October 3, 2018:
“Uncle Sam has got biological weapons factories all round the former Soviet Union in countries like Georgia, Kazakhstan. I think there are about 20 of them. The people who work there have all got diplomatic status, so they can move across borders without being checked. They are known to have been collecting DNA samples from Russians, supposedly for some kind of “ethnic bomb.” I’m not sure how this would work, given the 100+ nationalities in Russia, but they’re obviously up to no good. This takes some front when they’re issuing ultimatums to Russia to confess to a non existent biological weapons programme. But you can do that when you’re “exceptional.” Personally, I never stand behind an American for fear of being blinded by the sun shining out of their a***holes.
They did something similar in Afghanistan. They recruited Save The Children to collect DNA samples for the CIA under the guise of vaccinating children. This was then used for targeting drone strikes. Not surprisingly, the locals weren’t too impressed, and if any genuine health workers turn up in their villages trying to vaccinate children now, they shoot first and ask questions later. As a result, polio, which was virtually eradicated, has been making a comeback. If it spreads back here, then the NHS will have to go back to a comprehensive vaccination campaign against it costing billions. But when you’re “exceptional,” little things like that don’t matter.
Just after that, Save The Children gave their “Humanitarian Of The Year” Award to our very own Tony Blair. Nice to know that all that charity money is being put to good use.”

“Pentagon contractors produce bio agents under diplomatic cover:” http://dilyana.bg/the-pentagon-bio-weapons/
Trump put Pence in charged of the transitional government that brought in all these people. They are all neocons loyal to Pence and Israel, not Trump or the USA.
Trump won’t kick them out. They were picked by casino Jew Sheldon Adelson, Trump largest donor.
Contrary to popular lies, Trump did not contribute any of his own money to his campaign. He was asked at one point by his team to kick in 50 m but refused, they finally got him to make a 10 m loan to the campaign and it was paid back to him when more donors infused more money.
The Trump administration has already backed off the Iran war rhetoric – it is all sanctions talk these days.
There will be no Iran war started by Trump – he wants to win in 2020 – his supporters will abandon him if he starts a war.
Troop-supporting propaganda aside – Trump has a belly full of the generals – clearly Afghanistan is a loser that they can do NOTHING about. As an election ploy – Trump will back down on Afghanistan before 2020. (It is not an Israeli priority.)
Think Peace — Art
p.s. The Kushners – Jared and Ivanka – are the dark power in the White House. They are true Talmudists.
China could disrupt the US supply chain in a number of critical sectors, spin it as a Great Patriotic War against US hegemony and aggression, and use it as an excuse to repudiate all foreign debt to US entities and those of US client states. That would put China back to 1985; It would put the US and its allies back to 1930.
Yep. Jews can’t get along with anybody. Just look at their history. America is now a de facto Jew run country.
Yep.
According to BLS, gains in full-time median weekly earnings lagged inflation during the first six months of 2018 compared to one year before, and also during the last three months of 2017.
So stagnant wages + inflation in consumer goods =more pressure on all classes.
How long till Americans reach the proverbial… ‘nothing left to lose’ ?
I don’t think he is, but they’ve got him by the balls with the Mueller investigation. When that cloud’s lifted, the real Donald Trump will come out — ice Pence, and fire everyone he helped bring in, from Sessions to Rosenstein, Bolton, Pompeo, Mattis, Kelly, Kirstjen Nielsen, that’s just the start. Maybe he’ll send Ivanka to NYC to replace Haley. Not much of an improvement as she’ll be another dog to Israel like Haley, but at least it’ll get Javanka out of DC.
Good link, thanks! I had missed that when it was published.
Fact: Israel is damaging America. I am trying to prevent this damage in anyway I can. I could probably do more and will endeavor in doing so.
Well, speaks about Trump more than about Pence (who we know a colorless Israeli-first dimwit), doesn’t it? But Trump wanted Bolton himself and in this case Bolton is fully Trump’s, not Pence’s, creature. So, let Trump live by Bolton–that was his choice.
They are not Talmudists–they are simply dumb as fvcks which is expected from people with zero military-intelligence (and diplomatic) background getting into big geopolitics. And even this background (as is demonstrated on a daily bases) is not a guarantee for even rudimentary statesman qualities. Without it? Ghee-whiz, look at D.C.–a cesspool of media, law and political “science” personalities with no clue providing for national “policies”.
After the Mid terms and ‘Jarred’s’ ME peace plan comes out and flops, Trump should send them packing back to NYC. Bolton should go also, preferably by being ‘drawn & quartered’. Wishfull thinking on my part.
“Taking to the streets”
Stone age tactics, no stealth, no overview, no strategy, no underground power of arms, no brains, within the system, …doomed. As the French revolution was. The deplorables are only good to disrupt, if disruption is gratuitous, because no “shadow” power structure is prepared, then the sans-culottes of today (the women literally) and the public can proceed doing what they do. A finger on their precious i-phone, a left hand on the steering wheel of their “truck”, an overweight belly full of corn starch and palm oil, and taking a further brake from reality. It is them forgiven.
So the middle class can continue crowing.
Jews in politics work for Israel not America.
‘Eliot Engel, the Democratic congressman whose New York district neighbors that of rising star Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, said last night that Ocasio-Cortez and three other progressive Democrats “need to be educated” to support Israel.
“We are going to continue to work in Congress to make sure that we have overwhelming support for Israel on both sides of the aisle,” Engel told a White Plains, NY, synagogue audience gathered by the Israel lobby group AIPAC. “I know there was an interesting story in the New York Times today. I am certainly cognizant of the fact that people who are coming in as far as I’m concerned on the Democratic side, will be educated and need to be educated. But we have overwhelming support for Israel in the Congress. And… it will continue that way. We will maintain it that way.”
The NYT reported that Trump spent $65mm of his own money on his campaign.
https://www.nytimes.com/2016/12/09/us/politics/campaign-spending-donald-trump-hillary-clinton.html
Do you have a source saying he contributed none of his own money?
Makes one wonder if the self proclaimed billionaire had 50 million. Few have that amount. Even the Blum Feinstein fortune would have to mortgage some slave labor factories.
LOL, he will be icing on the cake! Though, I feel a chill in my spine….
Trump admin is playing with fire by simultaneously going to war(figuratively) against China while allowing large number of Chinese nationals to continue coming into this country as students, researchers, h1b workers, asylum seekers, (birth) tourists, home buyers and EB-5 immigrants. It’s time to greatly curtail this ongoing invasion of Chinese nationals to this country.
Also, it’s time to wise up and shut down all the Confucius institutes and Chinese language classes in all our public schools. All those teachers teaching Chinese in our high schools are sent here by the Chinese government. Teaching Chinese is just a pretense, their main goal is to brainwash our kids into be friendly to the Chinese Communist government. 90% of kids who take these Chinese classes are children of Chinese immigrants, they are being taught to be loyal to the motherland rather than to the US.
Either send all these people packing or cut off their loyalty to the motherland. Not doing either is just playing with fire.
That is just silly excuse making for Trump….if he had any balls or sense of honor he would do what’s right for his supporters.
Wages have stagnated since 1970. It was capitalist policy to force all the married women into the workplace thus increasing the work force by about one third and forcing every married couple to have 2 wage earners to buy what one wage earner could but 5 years later.
It gave the capitalists what they wanted; 2 wage earners for the price of one.
Anyone who thinks the feminazis were tools of the left are mistaken. They were nothing more than a front group for the capitalists who successfully rolled back every gain employees(labor) made since 1880.
Every person who gets a paycheck from someone else is an employee ( labor) no matter how many advanced degrees you have or what your job title.
And you too can be replaced by third world imports as the White men who created the American tech and medical industries know all too well.
Wage stagnation is nothing new.
.
Absolutely. Trump is a Deep Stater through and through.
Clearly a Jew trying to pin all problems of America on “Americans” in general rather than on Jewish control of America as Giraldi tries to tell us.
Pretty much.
Yup.
Looks that way.
Still, sometimes, disruption on a grand scale can create a critical mass of quality capable of brains->strategy->tactics->power structure.
One could envisage such a scenario, even in USA.
I guess we are in a race.
At one hand the quality of life is getting worse for the bottom…at another the control is getting tighter from the top.
There will come a point in time when they intersect. That moment will define everything. Maybe…..the control at that moment will be weaker than the mass. Maybe the other way around.
I am absolutely positive that TPTBs work on that as we speak.
And, I don’t discount the possibility that more and more people on the bottom do the same.
The people at the top really aren’t that smart. And…there are people at the bottom who are.
So…..we’ll see.
Great post Lute. Thank you!
Good post.
At war with everybody and his mother. It’s been that way since the dawn of mankind. God’s chosen must always be top dog. Any country or politician who is a potential threat must be nipped in the bud.
The Jewish cabal knows that the Russia-China-Iran “axis of evil”, if allowed to flourish, will be hard to contain. They are targeting any country who is on friendly terms with these 3 to try to encircle, isolate and squeeze until they cry uncle and come bowing down to Israel, I mean USA.
Pence all but declared a new cold war on China, accusing them of planting those fancy microchips on US servers being used by companies like Amazon, Apple and the US government. Guess who made this earth-shattering discovery and who held the megaphone that broadcast it to the whole world? — “Ex-Mossad investigators” who just happened to come across this chip and the Jew mouthpiece Bloomberg “broke” the story, even though both Amazon and Apple have denied that any of their data was stolen. Didn’t matter. Pence dutifully declared war. His Jewish masters has got China in their cross hair. That rogue country is becoming too strong and a potential threat to the Jew World Order. Let them know who’s boss before it’s too late.
Agree , you put clearly the key problem 2×1 , 2 workers one real salary , that`s what feminism was designed for .
This is the ruin of the society in a couple of generations by the greedy supported by the State .
Another dog to Israel but if this gets Javanka out of DC and the WH, I’ll live with it. She’ll at least be more tactful than that Idiot Witch of South Dakota.
First, no one in America cares about Palestine.
Second, Jews are too powerful in FUKUS for the West to abandon Israel. We are joint at the hip to these greedy vengeful belligerent warmongers to all eternity, until they finally sink us all down with them on the Titanic. Curse the Romans for creating the diaspora!

Do not bother Ron Unz, most of your readers do not see the straight connection between the dollar, the Central Bank, a Ponzi scheme, the international military bully-ing. Connecting the dots, well let’s just forget it, and keep digging potholes, with little or no association between one another. We call it “lineal narratives”, fairy tales for adults, and a living for middle class serfs to the master class.
By the way, your tremendous effort, undoubtedly, what is your ego and financial motivation for it, dare we ask? A short notice would be helpful. “A made fortune in software”, and thus convention, the banking sector?, sounds like a variant of classical Chomsky, and not good enough to keep you doing what you fully understand, “educating the public” being a moron’s task.
There must be some shadow identities betting on great individual talents like you, that see fit to finance your efforts. We would be glad to hear of your scheme, of course to redeploy a variant for our own benefit. This is not a critique, we admire you all, you have added a layer to the internet.
They do not need to be experts – Daddy loves them and daddy is the most powerful man on the planet.
Clearly, they are dedicated Talmudic Jews – who are totally invested in Israel.
They were all smiles and joy at the Jerusalem embassy celebration – at the same time dirty Jews were murdering Gaza children.
The Kushners have blood on their hands – with more to come.

Trump is considering Dina Powell of Goldman Sachs to replace Haley. Said he wouldn’t nominate Ivanka due to “nepotism issues”. Too bad he didn’t have any such concerns when he brought in Jared Kushner to be his senior advisor.
Dina Powell was born in Egypt and served in the Trump admin in its first year. She “oversaw” the $200B sale of weapons to Saudi Arabia. Close friends of Javanka, yada yada.
Another Israeli/Saudi dog to do their bidding at the UN.
In part, it was also Bolshevik (Feminist) policy. Feminism’s main goal is to destroy the institution of the family, which is one of the three primary goals of the Communist Manifesto (the other two being: destroying religion and destroying the nation state). Gay rights, transgenderism, genetic engineering, no-fault divorce and public education, all to various extends related to feminism, will combine to destroy the family. Religion in the West has obviously already been destroyed, in the US they mainly used the Supreme Court and the mass media for that. The nation state is being destroyed with the Global Carbon Tax scam, “open borders”, “supranational states”, free-trade agreements and the like.
Who benefits even more than the “capitalists” is the Bolsheviks, particularly, the State. Before women entered the workforce, they worked at home, providing daycare, food preparation, house-cleaning, etc. This created value, but was not taxable. By placing women in the workplace, and requiring households to outsource the tasks theretofore performed by them, they managed to tax another huge segment of the population. Of course the capitalists also tax workers in terms of “surplus value”, but the government tax is significantly higher.
That this is not a particularly “capitalist” policy is supported by the fact that Communist countries also had women work away from the home.
Realist surrealistically lectured Anon: “That is just silly excuse making for Trump….if he had any balls or sense of honor he would do what’s right for his supporters.”
Greetings, uh Realist?
Fyi, Trump’s “balls”and “sense of honor” are rooted in a primary commitment to serve international Jewry financial interests and Israel’s Oded Yinon plan, warmongering territorial expansion.
Fyi, I am a staunch PreZident Trump supporter! Uniquely, he has insouciant Americans cruising on our obsolete infrastructure’s highway to perdition.
Such is good, Realist! To date, no US president has done more to show their treasonous Zionist First Principles more than Donald Trump!
Because, under his administration, & as the “USA” devolves deeper into financial ruin & warlike hypocrisy, more & more citizens become AWARE of their imposed dreadful reality.
So it’s a sincere “thank you” to Adelson, Trump, Pence, Giuliani, Mnuchin, Jared, Pompeo, Bolton, and the unforgettable bygone Nikki Haley!
Post scriptum: A Russian proverb told by Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn; “Never try to interfere & obstruct a man whose on the path to destroy himself,” and I’ll add, his nation. Trump! Trump! Trump! Uh, Make America Aware… Again?
Good another dumb ass with no diplomatic experience. But then all they need is a mouth piece.
Probably because Bolton was a rockstar on FoxNews … it is probably a good thing that the nutcase Ralph Peters hasn’t had as much airtime lately.
Legend has it that Caligula wanted his horse Incitatus to be a Senator. There you go. In fact, I would prefer a horse to be Trump’s advisor than these two.
OK, they are. But again, one can be smart while being invested in Israel, others, however, are dumb as fvcks while doing the same. Ivanka and her husband are latter, while thinking that they are former, which aggravates the matter even more.
Not as much as present cabal of prominent neocons, half of whom are war criminals.
Socrates in the Cave ?
Yeah, so much drama went away with Peters. I don’t even know where is he now, apart from writing all kind of BS for NYP. They guy has got some serious issues. At least Bolton is calmly insane, less dramatics.
Mr. Unz,
If you go back to the year 2000,( before this eighteen year ,neocon “catastrophe” began),you can look at our national balance sheet at the time …and see WHY the US Dollar was the worlds currency……We EARNED IT !
We were the best economy on the entire face of the earth .
We were the biggest economy on the face of the earth.
We were the free-est nation on earth.
We were the most respected nation on earth.
We were the most creative nation on earth.
We were the strongest nation on earth.
We were the most compassionate nation on earth.
We were the most law abiding nation on earth.
We were the hardest working nation on earth….and had the numbers to PROVE IT !
We had a GDP to Debt ratio of almost 2 to 1 (9.8T to 5.6T) representing 25% of the WORLDS PRODUCTIVITY !
We were operating at a federal SURPLUS of almost 200 billion per year, paying down our debt.
We were a nation of FREE MEN, whose constitution guaranteed each of us, the right to pursue our own potential, and capture the American Dream.
If there was another nations currency, anywhere, which could even come close…..WHERE WAS IT ?
Then, post 9-11, the “neocons” took over the shop.
They exterminated our constitution, exterminated our bill of rights, lied us into criminal wars of aggression, destroyed our nations good name,pilfered trillions in war profiteering, and bankrupted our nation by creating this heinous 22 trillion dollar debt….destroying the legitimacy of our currency..through massive overspending on criminals wars of aggression all over the planet.
What an utter catastrophe for the American People ……..and the world.
What a total.. f#cking.. disaster.
I think credible ancient historians suggest that Caligula was taking the mickey out of the oligarchs in the Senate by essentially telling them he believed a horse was equal to doing the work demonstrated by the Roman Senate.
I agree not only that a horse, any horse in the US would be a better choice than Ivanka and Jared, but, after the circus of the past few weeks, we might consider putting a few horses in the US Senate.
Well, this Halloween, I am putting a Nikki Haley mannequin in my front yard. Should keep those pesky trick-or-treaters off my lawn. Maybe a Bolton severed head on a stick…
I know that I am not an exemplar, but ‘As an European’? Bwahhahhahhah. Even I will not write such an error.
How are you pronouncing ‘European’? ‘Oyropian’ or similar? Perhaps there is a language, or are languages, where that is correct.
As for the several OPs mentioning the resignation of Nimrata Randhawa as U.S.A. ambassador to the ‘United Nations’, with the first post, I thought it was a joke (although from one who has not struck me as unreliable), but from others too, it seems to be true.
Great news, but as another commentor suggested, maybe Trump will put his dimwit daughter in the post. Worse, maybe he will put some piece of slime that was stuck on his shoe there.
Who knows what kind of bad choice he will make next? The UN is just theatre, except for the SC and the bureaucracies, I know, but wouldn’t it be nice if he were to appoint a genuinely good performer (with a caustic and witty view on it all) as the replacement? Wouldn’t it be nice?
As always, Dr. Giraldi makes many good points, but, even if I were not on the other side of the world, do not think I would go in such a march. Sounds like very unpleasant company.
However, good luck to thee, Doc. G., hope that it is a good day for thee and thine.
I cannot resist. Will ‘pussy hats’ be compulsory or optional?
Time to face facts: Americans are beyond redemption – just too damn dumb to be saved.
The only question is whether or not ZOG USSA manages – as it implodes into oblivion – to take down the rest of the planet with it… as a parting “gift”.
Exactly.
War machine needs dollar higb to play games. Solution: destroy reserve status.
By bye Yehuda, MIC, Wal Street and various sundry parasites.
It’s b rilliant.
You mean humanitarian bombing of Serbs?
[email protected]
You sure sucked the trolls and cockroaches out of the wood works. A time honored process of beheading the messenger when they do not like the ‘message’….. My best advice is stay away from Saudi Consulates for a few days.
I don’t disagree about Bolton (whose Wikipedia entry btw rather belies the idea that friends of Israel fake it up). However, you seem to have added a further small crack in your persuasiveness by failing to understand the point that the post he was appointed to by Trump does not carry membership of Cabinet – normally, anyway, and as far as I can see in Hilton’s case.
Prior to year 2000, Alexander (The Exceptional) proclaimed: “We were the most compassionate nation on earth.”
Uh…, after the Bill Clinton zealous endorsement of NATO’s 78-day “barbaric” * (1999) bombing of Yugoslavia, perhaps Serbs would take issue with you.
* In a NYT featured article, Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn blasted the “barbaric bombing of a beautiful Balkan city,” Belgrade.
Selah, the compassion Janet Reno doled out to David Koresh’s Seventh Day Adventists, at Waco.
Yes, a plausible connecting of the dots. Still that quote is of the kind that belongs to “well known facts” which may have been manufactured….
Capitalism and Bolshevism/Communism are the two sides of the same coin. Both seek to concentrate wealth. In the case of capitalism, it is the money men. In the case of communism, it is the commune. Both groups decide who is admitted, and who is not. Both groups are overwhelmingly of the same genetic makeup.
Hey Andrei!
Below is an article written by the great & honest, William Blum. (Fyi, OBL recommended endarkened Americans to peruse Blum’s book)
Perhaps “Alexander” shall count the nations on Mr. Blum’s list which features governments that the US had either overthrown or, at minimum, tried its best!
https://williamblum.org/essays/read/overthrowing-other-peoples-governments-the-master-list
I respect Gareth Porter. His recent article gives pause for thought re: Trump, here are some excerpts:
https://russia-insider.com/en/trump-has-done-more-take-and-take-down-american-empire-any-other-president/ri24992
Trump Has Done More to Take On and Take Down the American Empire Than Any Other President
It doesn’t take away from the fact that he has failed to deliver on some key promises, but it does provide a slightly more nuanced perspective:
I remember this incident:
Are you starting to get the picture? There are dark forces at play here and Trump is not strong enough to overpower them:
This is not an attempt to apologize for Trump’s failures, but we need to be more strategic. Just attacking him plays into the hands of the deep state.
Again, Trump has to take the blame for putting these vipers into power, but attacking Trump doesn’t change the picture:
Perhaps not the strong man we need to drain the swamp, but it does show that his heart is in the right place – he is just unable to execute on his vision. The mind is willing, but the flesh is weak – a biblical reference that captures the sentiment.
I encourage Unzers to go read the article in its entirety and form your own opinions about this man.
.
Gareth may be completely wrong about Trump, but I don’t want my attitude or actions against Trump to cause the deep state to win. A CEO at one of the companies that I was on the board of, once asked me: Do you want to be right, or do you want to win?
Tulsi Gabbard would be a good choice but I don’t think she’ll take or will it be offered. The Egyptian Coptic Christian woman Dina Powell would be a decent choice.
She’s still better than hysterical hindu Haley.
That brought me up short, too. Those who don’t know the difference between sex and gender are not to be trusted about anything.
Hey Alexander,
Well, I suppose they controlled the levers of our society going back to at least WWI, but they sure did perpetrate their 9/11 in order to rally Americanus Bovinus to transform this nascent century into a replay of the last one, and yep, to eviscerate our Constitutional rights as a preliminary step towards our status as de facto Palestinians, sure.
Many or most of you have seen this video, but your post made me think of it.
Here’s to hoping Mr. Unz is right about the destruction of the dollar. Let hubris run its course, and let the American people know what it’s like to feel the wrath of hardship they so mindlessly visit upon defenseless people and nations.
What our (((government))) has wrought in this century, is a sin and enormity so unspeakable as to be beyond my comprehension.
Millions slaughtered, and millions of lives driven to absolute despair. Entire nations destroyed, and all to sate an insatiable appetite for an infinite sadistic lust for cruelty and misery upon others.
I will take some solace tho in the resignation of that execrable whore at the UN.
Sad and infuriating but true. ZOG. It must be defeated.
Hello Chuck,
Yes, the US was the most “compassionate” in the sense that we gave the MOST amount of money …to the MOST amount of countries in DISTRESS, around the world.
Hundreds of millions of dollars…every year..
If the Clinton’s “handlers” ended up “pocketing” all our “generosity” ,while pretending to help those most in “need” …please……. don’t blame me.
Introductory paragraphs from Jennifer Rubin’s latest column, Why Nikki Haley’s resignation is no surprise:
She enumerates the following four options.
My favourite JR quote? Try this one on for size:
Yes, of course, Jennifer. If anyone knows of a risk to the country, they are obligated to come forward. One question, Jenn: does that include the tiny risk that Israel has, as Profs Mearsheimer and Walt put it:
? Who do you think will come forward with that little risk? Just asking for a friend, Jenn.
Exactly. The War on Terror was a police matter that could have been easily handled by the FBI and CIA and just Special Forces of the military. Similar to what was initially done in Afghanistan right after 911. But then Dumbo Bush, evil Chaney and the infesting Satanic Neocons blew it all up costing America precious blood and immeasurable treasure. A Pox on them.
And let’s not forget Madeleine Albright’s compassion for the 500,000 Iraqi children killed by Bill Clinton’s sanctions.
That Alexander confuses chump change with real compassion…. sad.
”Throw a great deal of dollars into the market all at once, and the dollar will crash. A conflict with Taiwan may follow. It will be a conflict waged with American money, with American weapons, investment, and high technology. Add the nuclear factor here. Suffice it to recall the recent scandal when Chinese intelligence obtained all major nuclear secrets of the United States. Birth rates in China are no longer being kept down; defense spending has been increased. China is buying up armaments and military hardware.”
[]
“Proposals:
1. All efforts, including from the elite of international finance, should be made to stop the war.
2. Russia should become the real leader of the new process. (It has already become it but not yet aware of the fact.) The West and Israel need a strategic alliance with the Muslim world more than anything else, and this alliance is possible only through Russia. Only Russia in an alliance with the Muslim world can keep China in check without conflicts, helping it find its new place in the world as another super-power.”

Sleepy Jeff as usual is AWOL.
With good intentions, Cloak And Dagger said: “… but I don’t want my attitude or actions against Trump to cause the deep state to win.”
No worries about having bad “attitude,” C&D.
Given there is a deep state, such means that what’s leftover is a deceptively meaningful shallow state!
Doubtless, the Zionist Trump administration has The (!) “Winning” Attitude, demonstrated by unswervingly following Protocols of Zion script.
Good night & retire under the Protection.
No and No.
As I said in 2016, why should Tulsi give up her elected position, to be a puppet mouthpiece that could be removed with the wave of a hand?
And Dina Powell? No thanks. Another snake.
Wow, I’m simply in awe of how The Lobby can so easily accuse liberal goyim of hijacking progressive ideals, while at the same time condemn non-liberal goyim who accuse The Lobby of hijacking the US gov’t. This is simply beyond everyday Chutzpah. This is Chutzpah to the nth degree!
Take a gander (my commentary bolded in square brackets):
Saw a rumor some where on the internet she’s planning a run for president in 2020. Another that she’ll devote full time to getting the women and poc vote for Trump in 2020
Who knows
Aside from the economic issues (and, honestly, leaving aside how filthy rich the oligarchs are, people, even poor people, have it way better off than anytime in history – I’ve often made the argument, quite persuasively, that a poor working man in US today has a better life than King Louis XIV), I feel I have a lot of freedom in capitalism that doesn’t exist in Communism. I would never want to live in Communist China, no way, despite the fact that it is no longer as Communist as it once was (on the economic front, at least, it has liberalized considerably).
But you are right in one respect, both systems concentrate power in an oligarchy. We have a lot of filthy rich men in the US – the public ones, never mind the dynasties / clans – who are multi multi billionaires and contribute virtually nothing to society. In fact in many cases I would say they are a positively negative influence, are criminals. The same holds in Communism. But in Chinese Communism, at least it appears on the surface, the ethnicity is not the same.
The third point is the liberals want to defeat Graham as revenge for not obeying their orders to cave in on Kavanaugh
Tulsi is not dumb or naive; I think she would get along well with DT too.
Now that she is gone, I won’t care much about her actions until she pops up again like a bad penny, ready to seize the reins of power. For now, I am more concerned with who comes next.
The funniest part of her statement (if any of this could be considered ‘funny’) is “At that point, we would be looking at the capability to take out a missile that could hit any of our countries. …”
‘our countries’ … I didn’t know we actually owned Europe. What arrogance.
What the heck has the Mushroom done that’s xenophobic? Obungo was far more racist than the Mushroom, always playing the race card – BLM is virtually his baby.
As to the wars, he’s the Commander in Chief. If the generals get in the way, fire them. And the next one. And the next one. And the next one. Until he gets one that understands that the war machine is over.
If he doesn’t do that, he’s complicit. Even more so than the Stockholm Syndrome folks, who, by the way, are convicted of their crimes routinely.
Sure they can impeach him. But I can tell you, if they try to impeach him for trying to stop these endless wars and butchering, at that point, he would have more support than he would know what to do with.
Tulsi is CFR material. She’s a warmonger/insider/Swamp Create. It doesn’t get more Swampy than CFR, the shadow government more or less. There’s some good articles tearing her apart if you do a search.
You may be right – but what is our alternative? I don’t see a knight in shining armor hiding in the shadows…
If he is indeed doing battle with the denizens of the dark, however unsuccessfully, I would rather help him succeed than be saddled with yet another crypto-zionist or a Mike Pence.
I was only writing about the economic aspects. You’re right about the massive rise in consumption; 2 cars commuting every day, prepared food, etc
I’m also aware that communists sent women out to work and most importantly, working class women always worked outside the home. Also, middle and upper class women worked helping run the family businesses farm investments , money lending whatever they did.
When I was in college a professor with experience in the field explained to me how “foreign assistance programs” work.
In the first instance, the funds are used to build infrastructure that is of little if any use to the locals, but helps some connected capitalist exploit the country at a cheaper rate of investment. I.e, corporate welfare/cronyism.
In the second instance, it is subsidies for specific industries, like the MIC or farmers. That people get killed or saved is a side effect, not the goal. I.e., corporate welfare/cronyism.
In the third instance, it is recent college grads who know nothing about a poor country writing a report about it, for whom the government pays say $200 / hr, to produce a worthless report that won’t improve anything. The college grad makes $30 / hr. The rest goes into the pockets of the connected capitalist who was able to secure the contract. I.e., corporate welfare/cronyism.
So, no, US is not “generous”, US is utterly corrupt. Generosity is an incidental benefit of corruption at times, but mostly not.
Do the millions and millions of innocents killed, maimed, disfigured, displaced, unemployed and made homeless – you know, the victims of US’ ceaseless brutality – count in your calculus?
Going by memory, the dethroning of the dollar from it’s position as the world’s reserve currency was stated to be inevitable by George Soros in his “The Soros Lectures at the Central European University” back in 2011 (available in book or audio form). He urged that the US government recognize this and to work logically towards the dollar having a soft landing. He was critical in that this reality was being denied and not planned for, setting the stage for a crisis at some later date.
Much as I would have him do exactly that, he is a single man besieged on all sides, including those of us in our armchairs, probably one step away from being JFK’ed. Again, not trying to defend his actions, just being realistic about the alternatives before us: help him, or abandon him.
Then what?
What’s C-span? Who watches TV? Not me.
Trump gazed into the abyss of the deep state and it scared him.
He really doesn’t have the balls to tell his donors like Adelson and others to kiss his presidential ass.
I can only assume its because he wants to stay in their good graces for more money for 2020.
Good woman running that march. Can’t go but gave her some money months ago. She needs it.
Things are getting scarier all the time.
Where Haley goes will be interesting…she needs money.
Nikki Haley lists up to $1 million in debt as she steps down as U.N. ambassador
By Andrew Brown and Andy Shain [email protected] [email protected]
COLUMBIA — Nikki Haley’s political capital and foreign policy credentials skyrocketed during her time as U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, but one aspect of the former South Carolina governor’s life didn’t get the same boost: her personal finances.
Federal ethics reports show Haley had debt from $525,000 to about $1.1 million in 2017, the latest year available.
Her U.N. office put Haley’s overall current debt at less than $500,000 but did not offer specifics. Haley’s office added her debts were not why she announced Tuesday that she will resign at the end of the year
Haley listed ranges of debt and income on the federal income disclosure records. As of last year, she owed $25,000 to $65,000 on two credit cards and listed a mortgage and a line of credit each for $250,000 to $500,000.
She claimed to have $1,000 to $15,000 in the bank and earned roughly $10,000 last year with a month’s salary as governor before she was confirmed as ambassador. She also listed that she made no money last year from her 2012 memoir “Can’t is Not an Option.”
Her earnings did not include her salary at the U.N., which is about $180,000 a year
Michael Haley earned $50,000 to $100,000 last year from a Lexington shopping center he bought from the ambassador’s parents and had $15,000 to $50,000 in a bank account, according to Nikki Haley’s disclosure form. Michael Haley works for the S.C. National Guard.
Haley’s planned resignation from the U.N. was a surprise to many, creating a frenzy of speculation about why she would leave the influential Cabinet position. Former S.C. Gov. Mark Sanford, now a congressman, told MSNBC that her departure at the end of the year did not pass his smell test.
Haley suggested she is about to find a job after six years in the South Carolina governor’s office and two years as United Nations ambassador.
In her resignation letter to President Donald Trump, she wrote: “As a businessman, I expect you will appreciate my sense that returning from government to the private sector is not a step down but a step up.”
A spokeswoman for Haley sent a statement that said, “The Haleys’ debt that was disclosed in 2017 is very different from what it is today. … Their current debt level is well below $500,000, and it had no bearing whatsoever on Ambassador Haley’s decision to leave her position.”
Haley’s finances have received attention in the past, notably how they see-sawed before she became governor 2010.
But some of Haley’s relatives also are having financial issues.
The home of Haley’s parents, Ajit and Raj Randhawa, is going through foreclosure, according to court records.
A hearing with the Lexington master-in-equity for the 5,487-square-foot lakefront home valued at $1.1 million is scheduled for Oct. 30.
The Randhawas owe $740,708 according to court documents.
Then try not worshiping the Jews for once. Who needs ridiculous Jewsalvation anyway?
“WE WORSHIP what we do know, for salvation is from THE JEWS.” John 4:22
Hi Cloak And Dagger,
To an extent, I really like how you think! Thanks.
Nonetheless, American dumb goyim citizens’ vaunted political option is saddled down to this:
International Jewry consistently grants Americans to have a Dark Knight in “shining armor” who, as assigned, shadows the disinfecting sun light.
You know back when Mr Hopey Changey was elected president I said if he fails to live up to his promise to clean up DC special influences then the next election we would get 180 degree different belligerent buffoon—-and that’s what happened.
I have no sense yet of what will come after Trump……my crystal ball has gone dark.
She’s out. But for how long?
You are probably right on all counts. We don’t have another recourse but to help him succeed, as feeble as he may be, because the alternatives are scant.
How interesting! That makes her a security risk and she should never be allowed near the halls of power. She can be bought cheaply.
Hey even this 897 Sq. Ft. house in Palo Alto costs $2.5 Million:

Two points.
The people who want peace and to disengage from war – are not protester types. It will take a major war scare to start a real genuine peace movement.
The Jews control all the levers of action in America – they control the media, the education systems, and the funding of both the left and right. The last thing Jew Talmudism wants is peace!
Think Peace — Art
p.s. FAKE news will not report on a peace event.
Yes.
Like I said, I don’t think she (Gabbard) would take it and Powell would still be much better than Hindu Haley.
Wrong.
I’d attempt to explain, but it would doubtless be a waste of time. You really would benefit from reading the works of the “anti-federalists,” and would also benefit from spending more time trying to educate yourself about the things you’re ranting about and less time mouthing off about things you know nothing about.
As for your personal attacks on PG, please get a life.
Yes, I do recall you saying that, and you proved to be prescient. All our crystal balls are dark now, but hope is not dead yet. That would be too nihilistic, even for me.
That’s a very sensible position, and I seem to recall hearing about it at the time.
Frankly, I’ve never really understood why right-wingers regard Soros as the Devil Incarnate or something, much like left-wingers view the Koch brothers. He seems a lot like other left-liberal financiers, though more politically active.
I remember back in 2004 Soros put tens of millions of his money into the campaign to defeat “W” for reelection, and that counts for a lot with me. I’ll bet that 90% of the right-wingers were enthusiastic “W” supporters back then.
LOL! “WE WORSHIP what we do know, for salvation is from THE JEWS.” John 4:22
You misinterpret that reading. Salvation is getting away from the Jews. LOL!
This is why I stopped going to church. Our churches are now actively helping people break the law, if that’s not sin I don’t know what is.
Dina Powell “oversaw” the $200B sale of advanced weapons to Saudi Arabia, clearly another Saudi/Israeli boot licker like Haley. Neocon Never-Trumper globalist shill Max Boot called her “a great choice”. That should tell Trump right there to run away from her.
I can’t go. I’m working on my bomb shelter.
Pass the freeze-dried, please.
You’re absolutely right, Ron. As Wikileaks revealed, the policies Soros promotes and HRC was committed to implementing are, indeed, good for business:
With all the Jew asses she’s been kissing these past 2 years, I’m sure her masters will find something for her, perhaps a job in a lobbying firm, or Wall Street bank.
Haley is Sikh (NOT Hindu) and/or Methodist. Gabard, on the other hand, happens to be Buddhist, as I recall. The only Buddhist in Congress, I believe.
If he does as he promised, i.e. end all foreign wars, bring home the troops to guard the Southern border, build the wall, end all illegal immigration and drastically cut legal immigration incl. ending H1b visa, he’d be so popular he wouldn’t have to worry about winning 2020. And he can tell Adelson to kiss his ring.
Just read that CFR members include the Clintons, George Soros, McCain…bad.
You’re not linking to them, of course. Nobody’s perfect, but your effort to smear Tulsi is noted.
It doesn’t really count as TV but it’s fun, as I reminded myself with a rare glimpse available half a world away, when you can see creatures like the Senatorial Congresscritters auditioning Judge Kavanaugh for a part in a nostalgic off-Broadway weepy. FWIW it did give one a chance to see that Kamala Harris was a cut above fellow Democrat participants.
Well, most of my motives are rather obvious ones, e.g. WW3 being a really bad idea. But there is an additional one…
I’d say that the concentration of Jewish-activists in ADL/AIPAC/etc is an *exceptionally* powerful political/ideological force as we can obviously see by the trajectory of the last couple of decades. So taking them on is a very worthy challenge.
Probably most of you aren’t aware of it, but for decades the bilinguals were regarded as absolutely invincible, easily crushing all attacks against them from President Reagan on down. Then I came along in 1998 and completely broke them in twelve months, afterwards spending the next few years in mopping-up operations. I ultimately annihilated them so thoroughly that most people have forgotten they ever existed, let alone how enormously powerful they were.
And just about the only major economic victory achieved by ordinary workers or labor unions in the last half-century have been the tremendously successful recent campaigns for huge hikes in the Minimum Wage. And frankly, I think my own efforts were a very substantial part of that success.
So the extremely formidable power of the ADL and its allies is actually a rather tempting target…
Bravo!

Hypothesis: TPTB will collapse the economy due to a “nationalistic trade war”, which will fester for many years to turn into the “nationalistic WW III”, which will cause a lot of damage but not be too nuclear, perhaps some bio-weapons to cull the population, out of which will arise, as a dialectical result (the Oligarchs just love dialectical development) of the “nationalistic fervor” (haw haw) unleashed by the Mushroom and “populists” globally, a Global Government with a Carbon Tax to fund it (already there is talk of a carbon tax of $30/gallon of petroleum), a Omnipresent Surveillance State and an Omniscient AI Police State.
A bit dark, granted, but that’s my projection.
I cannot buy that the rulers are really so stupid to empower China like they did if it were really an “enemy” (rather than part of the script) or to get US into the position it is now. That goes far beyond dereliction of duty – it’s actual malfeasance.
Actually, it’s Gabbard that’s Hindu.
I know and I’ve mentioned it before (sigh) that she’s Sikh, that’s why I put a slant in Hindu, I just like the way ‘Hindu Haley’ sounds.
Exactly. The Roman Catholic Church is the biggest human-trafficking organization on the planet. This is why a complete collapse of the RCC is necessary.
The New Yorker does good background pieces….here’s a deep look at Pence. Scary guy.
.The Danger of President Pence
https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2017/10/23/the-danger-of-president-pence
And a liite blurb below about Ivanka meddling , in this case spured by Jared no doubt.
”Another consequence of Trump’s choice for Vice-President may be the widening federal investigation into possible connections between his campaign and the Russian government. Before Pence took over the transition team, Christie had warned Trump not to give a high-level job to the retired general Michael Flynn, whose financial ties to foreign interests triggered the investigation. Flynn, whom Obama had fired as the director of the Defense Intelligence Agency, was not on any of the original transition team’s long lists for government appointments. Christie considered him too risky.
On November 11, 2016, Christie was chairing a transition meeting, when, according to four sources, Flynn walked in with an ally, General Keith Kellogg. “Gentlemen, can I help you?” Christie asked. Ivanka Trump, who was a member of the transition team’s executive council, announced that she had invited them. Christie tried to reclaim control of the meeting, but Ivanka took over. Praising Flynn’s “amazing loyalty to my father,” she turned to him and asked, “General, what job do you want?” A participant at the meeting said, “It was like Princess Ivanka had laid the sword on Flynn’s shoulders and said, ‘Rise and go forth.’ ” (A source close to Ivanka didn’t deny the account, but said that it exaggerated her role, and that she was merely trying to show appreciation for Flynn’s support.)”
A few hours later, Christie was deposed. Kushner, he felt, had humiliated him a second time. Bannon, who was given the job of dismissing him, admitted to Christie that Kushner had been against him all along, for personal reasons.”
Oh I remember “The Newsroom” with Jeff Daniels’ excellent monologue. The show got cancelled after 2 seasons, if I recall.
Nikki the Sikki
Ditto Cloak…BRAVO
“Good news, Hindu Haley (yeah I know she’s a Sikh) quit.”
I guess Trump found the writer of that NYT op-ed after all. I can’t believe she’d be so stupid. I guess she was still pissed about not getting the Sec. of State job over Pompeo. She certainly tried hard, wink wink
… and “free USA from DC”
… and of course “free DC from Israel”
“Now we can only pray Trump replaces her with someone who will actually carry out his campaign promise of no more wars — Tulsi Gabbard.”
Gabbard would only go for that in exchange for an implicit guarantee to replace Pence on the VP ticket with her down the road after she changes parties; otherwise, she’d be trading one valuable job for another where she could be fired on a whim, despite the obvious advantage in terms of increasing name recognition that the ambassador gig would yield. This is actually something a lot of people would support as about a third of Trump supporters admire the woman for standing up to the warmongers on the issue of Syria. Also, as a vet, she’d be popular enough with the GOP. The alternative is to run as a democrat in 2020, but there are several problems with her that would preclude her from getting the nomination:
1. I believe she married a white man and racist black voters in Southern primary states hate that kind of race mixing (ask Nicole Brown Simpson about that)
2. She’s not black but Hawaiian, so Kamala Harris and Cory Booker would beat her in heavily black Southern states.
3. She has spoken out against belligerent military polices in the Middle East, including questioning the Syrian Gas Hoax narrative, causing the Democrat elite like Howard Dean to attack her – even threatening to “primary” her; so, there goes her financial support.
However, putting her as the VP on Trump’s 2020 ticket might be just the trick Donald would need to ensure re-election. It would defuse many left-wing talking points while also uniting anti-war Gary Johnson types behind him. The Left falsely believes Hillary “won” the popular vote when she merely got a plurality. The two white guys combined for about 2-3 million more votes than she did. Trump has room for improvement.

Please tell us what you mean by “neo-nazi”, and then tell us why you labeled Haley as such.

US break-up is the only solution. It will happen, is happening. The sooner the better.
Thanks.
Who is the Mushroom?
That leaves us with the financial aspects, who finances the effort unz.com, unanswered by Ron in his polite reply. As such evasive and not to the point.
A false note as to the extend of running unz.com. This is not a single man effort, services are sub-contracted, and there is no pretense of these being voluntary. The effort is not a cheap one, there must be interested financing in the background, of third parties. It would be enlightening to know on what the pool consists of.
Miswinterpwet this, Kikesucker.
LOL! Philippians 3:3 “For it is we [Christians] who are the Circumcision.” LOL!
Several years ago I subscribed to the American Conservative solely to read Giraldi, and Lind’s articles on 4th Generation warfare.
Alexander, I understand your view and certainly things have got much worse since 2000 but the seeds of doom were planted far earlier and were already sprouting in the 1990s
Think: the origin of the National Security State was definitely in the 1950s – Eisenhower’s farewell address referenced it
Think: the removal of constitutional restraints over Presidential war making began with Korea, accelerated with the Gulf of Tonkin and Vietnam and by the 1990s Bill Clinton was bombing Serbia and Sudan using Area Force resolutions
Think: the destruction of American manufacturing started in the mid 70s accelerated in the 80s and NAFTA set the stage for general outsourcing in the 1990s.
Think: Political Assassination and Intrigue: Began witb the Kennedys and King then the take down of Nixon through Watergate. The CIA were infiltrating Europen political parties through Operation Gladio as early as the late 40s. By the 70s and 80s they were bombing in the guise of the Red Brigade planes and railway stations in Italy
Think Media complicity in particular narratives. Started with the takedown of McCarthy then the Kennedys and King again, then by the 1990s you have the Oklahoma lone nut bombing and the shootdown of TWA 800, expertly described by Ron in his American Pravda series
Think: the groundwork for the Cultural Marxism of today began with the so called Sexual Revolution of the 60s but really got its kick from the dumbing down of Education standards and the infusion of propaganda narratives from the 1960s onwards.
It’s absolutely true we weren’t aware of it or only dimly but the seeds were planted earlier and now we are reaping its bitter harvest.
As far as “boots on the ground”, we do, however, have Special Operations forces all over the joint overseas providing “support” for our valued allies (sarc).
You’ve got to be a dumb American to believe that load of nonsense.
Pfft. Is it the orange colored barrel shaped LSD you’re on that is coming up with this dream filled other world?
I guess it wasn’t obvious back then that “W” and Hillary were connected at the hip. I’m wondering what they think of him now that he has dissed Trump in favor of the Hillary camp(where the neocons are nesting)?
Excerpt from, The Real Reason Orthodox Jews Love Nikki Haley:
Seek help or take a bullet.
LOL, you can lead a horse to water …
If you want to feed a man for a day …
“Smear”? LOL. Smearing is making false accusations, I only stated there is another side to the story. You’re actually smearing me a lot more than I did Tusli. Yeah, but she’s CFR, it don’t get more SWAMPY than CFR. That’s more powerful than ADL. If she were a proud ADL member would you be so fawning?
Here’s a Reddit thread, I trust if you advocate for a candidate you can do your own research on that person?
Great points.
Also, notice how the need for workers during WW2 got women into the workforce outside the home and the nation used to the idea that women could be employed to do the work traditionally done by men. Post WW2 subsidized schooling also contributed to cementing the idea in the minds of ‘Merkins too.
Furthermore, schools are essentially baby sitting organizations that make it convenient for the moms to get out of the house to serve their real masters, among other things such as removing the ability of parents to significantly impart their values to their kids and substituting brainwashing with the values that serve our corporate masters. The whole system is sick.
WW2…the gift that keeps on giving; to the ruling schmucks.
Correct on all three points.
In the case of communism, it is supposedly the commune; in reality it’s just another way of benefitting the ruling clique. Bolshevism merely transferred wealth to a different set of liars, murderers and thieves and did it with the support of one particular bunch of mega-rich arseholes.
Trump’s mentor in the 1970s was Roy Cohn. Is it possible to be more Deep State than that?
Trump is clearly a fraud. There is no way that one man can work within the system and make any real difference and that’s because it’s a system designed to lull the proles into slavery.
Lysander Spooner and many others recognized the fraud long ago.
All of today’s freedom junkies really need to read Spooner for a dose of reality.
Our pentagon has become a lot like a heroin addict, only its addiction is not to heroin, nor to war…Its addiction is to “war profiteering” and massive systemic pilfering.
There is not an American alive who can tell how much, out of every dollar we have spent , has gone directly into the pockets of our war mongering elites…as pure profit.
We have no clue..we literally have NO CLUE.
There are no audits, no disclosures,….Nothing.
Its like a big, black, five sided box sucking in trillions upon trillions of taxpayer dollars with no accountability anywhere for as far as the eye can see.
There are things we can, however, figure out.
We know, for example, we have budgeted in,on average, approximately 550 billion per year every year since 2000. This is taxpayer money already allocated , already spent.
Lets assume, for arguments sake, that ten percent of that 550 goes to profits,this leaves 500 billion of taxpayer money which goes to our actual defense.
In my book that’s fine (its a lot) but its fine.
The problem is, I have no way of knowing what percentage is what…Nobody does.
I don’t know whether the war profiteers are extracting ten percent, twenty percent, forty percent, sixty percent….or even seventy percent.
Even within the pentagon’s budget we have already paid for with our tax dollars…we don’t really know what the profits are….This is important in gauging both our true “defense” readiness….and our bang for the buck.
Consider for a moment, that are war profiteers are pocketing fifty percent in pure profits…this leaves our actual spending on our defense at 225 billion per year….Not much more than China spends today.
Then there is our government “overspending” since 9-11.
Our government has OVERSPENT its budget by 800 billion per year, (on average) every year, since 2000…Bringing our nations overspending to about 16 trillion dollars in just 18 years.
All of this overspending went to our big bank bailout and to the wars in Iraq,Afghanistan,Libya,and Syria (and wherever else).
I cannot tell you how it splits out.
Of the 16 trillion in total overspending…did we spend 5 trillion on the Big banks, 4 trillion?
Lets “assume” we spent 6 trillion on the big banks…..that leaves 10 trillion in overspending on the wars.
I have no clue what percentage of that 10 trillion in overspending on the wars..is pure profit and pilfering for our war profiteers….and what percentage is actual cost….. because our Pentagon will not tell us.
The Brown University study said zilch about profit percentages., just estimated the breakdown of costs….
The actual ….”true “… war costs could have been only 200 billion, but they billed out two trillion and our war profiteers pocketed 1.2 trillion in “pure profit”.
which brings us all to what………”Citizens United”.
The key “preemptive law” passed by our supreme court, guaranteeing our war profiteers the right to “buy out” every single elected representative of the American people, until the end of time.
Insuring NO accountability and total opacity on just how many trillions they pocketed (or will pocket)…..All from lying us into war
Extremely well stated as usual, and most of it bears repeating, so here it is.:
None of the trouble the US government has long been creating is necessary in any way. Sick system. Sick people, especially at the “top.”
Baloney.
“We” gave most of the money to corrupt rulers to keep their countries in distress, I’d bet. A big exception is the money we give to Israel which is used by their corrupt rulers to keep other countries in distress, and “our” own, in debt.
Any doubters should avail themselves of Perkin’s claims as presented in his “Confessions of an Economic Hitman.”
http://library.uniteddiversity.coop/Money_and_Economics/confessions_of_an_economic_hitman.pdf
Or you could read comment # 179.
Oh, cut it out. We all know that “Debt is Good!”
Yes. Cohn prosecuted the Rosenbergs and supported McCarthy in exposing the Bolshevik infiltration of the US. “Cohn played a major role in McCarthy’s crusade against Communism.”
What’s your point?
((Paul Krugman)): Cattle Indebted to the Chosen Ones is Great!
True. It makes on wonder what these people regard as freedom and whether they’ve ever experienced any other “culture.” In fact, there are many places that have long been much freer.
The “anti federalist” arguments regarding loss of freedom were about 99% correct and here’s but one example.
Note: Although in this piece they were addressing one specific topic, congressional elections, it’s easy to see that the principles apply much more broadly.
I think I watched a few moments of it once, and it reeked of liberalism, and not the good kind.
But yea, I always liked that monologue. The idea of American and Americans as ‘exceptional’, is for me a grotesque perversion of our national ethos.
“Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities.”
Please keep it quiet; we dumb goyim are not s’pposed ta know!
Besides, Krugman is a genius and has a Poolitzer pwize to prove it, doncha know? You got a problem wit “authority” er sumpin?
I certainly can’t speak for “W” supporters, as I was his biggest detractor at the time.
But as for the alt-right types aversion to Soros, (if I may speak for them) we consider the ethnic and cultural identity of Western civilization as something worth preserving. And that by opening the borders of Europe to unlimited throngs of military age young Arabs and Africans (and everybody else), will cause unpleasant strife in the short term, and irreparable harm to the lands of our ancestors, and the hopes for their progeny to maintain their identity. An identity that some of us consider worthy of persevering.
I too agree with Soros on some things. I don’t approve of the war on drugs, as it’s been fought over the last few decades, and like Soros, I’d like to see marijuana de-criminalized.
But where many of us draw the line with Soros, is his imperative that Western civilization die under a tsunami of non-Western immigration/blending.
That seems very Zionist (Jewish supremacist) of him, IMHO.
To SolontoCroesus, RVBlake wisely noted: “As far as “boots on the ground”, we do, however, have Special Operations forces all over the joint overseas providing “support” for our valued allies (sarc).”
As you know, RVBlake, western Zionist nations Britain and France are the American-Israeli Empire’s el supremo “valued” allies.
Fyi, down below is a pressTV article on the ICC’s pressing war crimes against the living/dead (“boots-still-on-ground”) French presidents who were responsible for evil nuclear bomb testing at a French Polynesian atoll.
I trust the knowledgeable & well-compensated leadership of ZUSA’s “good” Islamic terrorists recognize the stark EVIL for whom they stand, serve!
In addition, (Zigh), I suppose the ICC clearly knows the evil capabilities of the Trump administration’s “valued” NSA Director, John Bolton.
https://www.presstv.com/Detail/2018/10/10/576590/France-nuclera-testing-ICC-pacific
Terrific work & thanks, RV!!
Interesting article. I vaguely recall, I believe in the 90s, French military scubamen opening the sea valves on a Greenpeace vessel docked in New Zealand, drowning some of the activists. Greenpeace had been protesting French nuclear testing in the Pacific. New Zealand attempted some legal/diplomatic action against France. Lost track of what happened.
If you can afford the lawyer with the highest win record in town, why not hire him. You don’t hire lawyers for their moral qualities, you hire them to prevail over the opposition.
A big real estate developer or big anything ir small real estate owner is a target for speculative lawsuits. So fight fire with fire, when in doubt be offensive never settle.
” But where many of us draw the line with Soros, is his imperative that Western civilization die under a tsunami of non-Western immigration/blending. ”
I indeed see in Soros the Bernard Baruch of our times.
Baruch’s project failed completely, but cost over sixty million lives, not to speak of suffering and misery.
How it is possible that such men exert such an influeance baffles me.
What Soros’ diversity project has cost already, and will cost over the next few years, difficult to judge.
That his project also will fail, more and more indications
Concluding paragraph from,
Firm Linked to Israeli Intelligence Ran Pro-Trump Propaganda During Presidential Election:
Depending on your definition of fraud, he may well be one, although one could question “clearly”. My current thinking (and it does vary based on events and actions by him) is that he does want to do the right thing, but is unable to because of either inability, blackmail, weak character, fear, insecurity, …, etc., and that could be described as fraud.
We can accept that and choose to do nothing. We have no other alternative strategy that is apparent.
Or, we can believe (with a high likelihood of disappointment) that he is trying to fight the forces of darkness, but stands alone in the middle of the room with enemies on all sides, and choose not to side with his enemies, who are our enemies as well.
We can choose not to help him, but perhaps also choose not to be among the rock-flingers that weaken him further.
Or we can choose to go with Mike Pence or some other zio puppet that the dark lords foist on us.
I applaud your bravery. I once considered heading to Iraq to join marchers against the Iraq war. Not only did my fears of the what that meant get to me, I am also troubled that it’s almost impossible to link arms with liberals on an issue and not be considered to embrace every peculiar and abhorant polity they embrace.
A friend (liberal though she is) and i were discussing Justice Kavenaugh. As I explained why I supported his nomination, I expressed my disappointment that the what mattered concerning the Justices views to the constitutionality of the patriot act, NSA surveillance, the legalizing of entrapment and manufacturing evidence, the lean toward authorizing increasing authoritarian practices of government agents, financial dealing and congressional over sight or the lack thereof, lax immigration policies favoring commercial interests undermining the US citizen, etc, and etc.
Her response was to ask why I was not a Sen Sander’s supporter.
The very idea of supporting Sen Sanders is a hard pill given our views of government and human existence. The real problem is the shrinking difference between today’s supposed republicans and Sen Sanders.
You’d have to know more about Cohn to understand, but I don’t think the UNZ comment section is the appropriate place to write his biography.
Scranton greetings RVBlake!
Below is You Tube video that displays an honorable Frenchman-’O-Conscience telling about France bombing of Greenpeace “Rainbow Warrior.”
Uh, Greenpeace did not like France’s deadly nuclear bomb testing and paid a high cost.
Thanks!
I choose to believe that Trump was forced to hire her under pressure from Adelson and zionist forces. I also choose to believe that he fired her.
Yes, credible. A faustian bargain with Adelson and his ilk.
m___ says: “‘That leaves us with the financial aspects…”
– and who are these “we?” The truncated “m___” and peterAUS, the two purists of the ADL kind? There was another hasbarist on this forum, who was issuing some vaguely threatening statements re the lack of prudence from the participants on the Unz forum. Do you belong to the same category of guardians of the Jewish Power? By the way, it seems that the well-paid staff at the Simon Wiesenthal Center and the ADL have lost any interest in Nazi-hunting. Is this because the Jewish Power has been involved in the revival of Nazism in Ukraine? Any thought about that?
– You seem to be upset with the uncensured FACTUAL information published on the Unz site. After the successful assault by the Jewish Power on the freedom of information and freedom of speech in the US (and the EU) to punish any critics of the Jewish State’s crimes and misdemeanors, the hasbarists are surprised that the principled and courageous people do not want bending to the malicious Jewish Power.
“m___” writes: “… there must be interested financing in the background, of third parties. It would be enlightening to know on what the pool consists of.”
– And why do you need that — to unleash the unscrupulous zionists against the great website that provides the wealth of factual information and offers a forum for the highly intelligent and informed people? Guess, you want to hear only nice things about Warburg, Brandeis, Baruch, Morgenthau, Kristols, Perle, Pletka, Ledeen, Kagans, idiot Feith and such. It seems that Purimization is on your mind, “m___”.
Where are your righteous synagogues to deplore the bloody genocidal Wars for Israel in the Middle East and the Israeli participation in the revival of Nazism in Ukraine? Nowhere. So, please don’t pretend on moral superiority. The pretense is ridiculous.
I’m with you fully on the former. Not so much on the latter.
Hey Cloak And Dagger!
My Brother Cloak, I regret to say your Dagger needs a tune-up.
Although wrought with self-danger, the help Donald Trump really needs is an impulse to make America great again by sharing dark truth that he knows with citizens.
Fyr, below is an intentionally obscured “Guardian” article, 12/11/2014, titled, “ISIS: The Inside Story.”
The author’s information-basis was senior ISIS official, Abu Ahmed. Ahmed asserted: “If there was no American prison in Iraq, there would be no ISIS (ISIL, Daesh) now. Bucca was a factory. It made us all. It built our ideology.” (Quote taken from “The War on Terror; Plot To Rule The Middle Easy,” by Christopher Bollyn).

Thanks, C&D!
Selah, To Make Abu Ghraib Great Again!
I agree completely. Ron is a Silicon Valley millionaire. He may or may not have other financial resources – that is irrelevant. Ignore these ADL shills.
Sadly, my dagger has been blunted by age.
I am open to suggestions as to how to provide him that impulse beyond what we are already doing. I am also open to understanding how weakening him further helps us.
Oh, how thoughtful. It’s the least they could do for these freiers who fought in these illegal wars of aggression to enhance the security of the Jewish state.
The ISIS theology is part of Traditional Sunni Islam through Caliphate, while the body of the Prophet was still warm and not buried yet. Nothing to do with Abu Ghraib.
ISIS is godsend for all Muslims, especially the Sunni Muslims dream, that One (Caliph) to rule them all. Giving up this dream of One (Caliph) to rule them all, protects each individual Muslim Country and the ruler of that Country. Good riddance the Caliphate of Turkey or the Caliphate of Baghdadi.
It will like the kid who called, “The King Naked”.
I fully agree, to further help we have to recognize that:
1. Trump, Obama, Bush, Muller, Comey, Lindsey, Late McCain are all Deep State.
2. Bubba and his worst half are both imbeciles.
3. The leaders of USA are not traitors and they know what they are doing.
4. The Generals of USA are not imbeciles and they follow the orders of Deep State. They are well trained, strong and coordinated.
5. To fight Evil, the Deep State has had enough and they have become Evil too. Though, we don’t condone it.
6. USA, Russia, China …. are all in cahoots.
7. The Muslims and Arabs are neither imbeciles and/or towel heads.
8. There is great cooperation between Shia and Sunni, especially between Iran and Middle East.
As you well understood, my suggestion is that by self-doubt and simple strategic sense, some insiders are willing to bet any player, all sides, any gaming that has some kind of success in crowd control. Ron Unz is one such player, he deserves the attention, which makes financing derisory, riding the dragon tempting.
To our understanding, Assange was equally to be subverted, unfortunately for him some egos got in the way. His methods were even more sexy, provoking and daring than the Ron Unz ones, a mighty shame we could not sit the episode out and enjoy the tale.
Netanyahu’s Wet Dreams as reported by Debka.com
Not one Palestine State but two Palestine States.
Gaza will be a State itself, under the rule of Hamas. Part of Egypt territory will be added to Gaza. Jared and Qatar are for it, and since Turkey is Qatar’s friend, they will join in this endeavor too.
West Bank will be State itself. Trump and Saudi Arabia (MBS) are lately having falling out with each other, especially due to Khashoggi’s saga. Trump is also not pleased with bad behavior of Abbas. This State if it materialize will be under siege, the odds for this State gaining independence are almost none to nothing.
Hi C&D,
By making a decision to become ZUS president, Trump strengthened Zionist Jew warmongering and thereby weakened himself. He can only look within now, summon courage and be willing to take a hit.
Fyi, in James Douglass’s important book “JFK & The Unspeakable,”Trappist monk Thomas Merton’s letters to Kennedy’s sister Ethel take front & center. Please refer to the informative article below, Cloak?
http://www.dcdave.com/article5/180129.htm
Regrettably, Paul Craig Roberts read & praised the book, but he ill-advised readers to passover stuff about Thomas Merton’s coining of the “Unspeakable.”
As expressed to Ethel Kennedy, Thomas Merton’s deep fear was that JFK did not have the inner strength & conviction needed to take a principled stand against the NB nation-killing Pentagon, M.I.C. war/profit machine, and anti-American Israeli fanatics
Suppose we’ll never know actual names of the multiple “Unspeakables” who the daring JFK feared most.
Nonetheless questions, C&D-Lite.
Who most ideologically benefited from the president’s murder in Dallas? Who had motive, capability, plausible deniability, and U.S. Federal Reserve coup d’etat practice? (Zigh)
Sharpen 1st Amendment Dagger! Thank you.
I “think ” you are absolutely right.
All the seeds of our belligerent, murderous, solvency swallowing , unaccountable “Deep State” were planted much earlier.
I do believe, however, the hinge of American history turns in the post 9-11 era on our oligarchs determination to commit the supreme crime of humanity……”war of aggression”.
It was absolutely unthinkable, for most Americans, and most of their representatives, to ever even consider “war of aggression” as an option, for anything.
So ingrained, in all of us, that “mass murder” is a heinous, heinous crime.
Yet, our “elites” managed, through their clever deceptions, to make it happen.
This changed “us”, transformed our country into something we never believed it could become.
This is the crisis all Americans face,whether we recognize it or not, our nation has been defrauded by our “elites” into committing the worst crime we could ever possibly commit..How do we deal with that ?.
It is such a shameful, ….. horrible thing.
What, pray tell, do we do ?
Wow.
Well….you do know that this site is, pretty much, an online pub.
There are limits to both quality and seriousness of “pub talk”.
That interest/question of yours, IMHO, gets over that, serious, line.
Oh yes it would. Most definitely.
Especially for those who would like to shut down this site in nanosecond. Or, better, “coopt” the site for their own interests.
Let’s say, for the sake of conversation, that the owner and the people supporting him do have “unfriendly” motive. I could come up with several possibilities, with ease.
Doesn’t matter.
All what matters is that we can post here.
Could be.
Well, haven’t thought much about Asange. What I do know about intelligence/counterintelligence business is very simple: it’s a peculiar world of lies, half-truths, deceptions and similar stuff. Requires a particular type of personality in order to play long and well.
Anyone can be bought out, subverted, paid or simply intimidated into doing other person’s wishes.
Or simply broken.
Failing that incarcerated and/or killed.
The eternal game of POWER.
You know…..doubt (including self-doubt) is good. The thing…hehe..is recognizing that line where it becomes paranoia.
As I said before: if/when the Five Eyes want they’ll be able to watch me typing this.
Also, if/when they want they’ll be able to put me in prison or simply “accident/heart attack” me. Facts.
Is that likely as we speak, don’t think so. Will it be likely in time….probably.
The thing is, that game works both ways. As in “Predator”:”if it bleeds we can kill it.”
Everybody bleeds.
Risk/reward etc.
How deep into Cocktail Hour (?) was Jeffrey Cohen (burp) while he interpreted Debra.com, thusly: “West Bank will be State itself… This State if it materialize will be under siege, the odds for this State gaining independence are almost none to nothing.”
Selah, you’re either without a Palestinian State or, selah, you’re against the Irgun terrorists who were with the Jews!
Forgive me for going into, probably, personal stuff but simply feel it could be beneficial here.
From some of your posts in our chat here I came to impression that, fundamentally, you believe that correct society would be:
Ignorant masses at the bottom, some supervisor elite above, BUT, the true power and rulers are the thin layer on top composed of benevolent geniuses (maybe even genetically/cybernetic enhanced).
Maybe you are right.
The eternal thing still stays: “power corrupts”.
Maybe thinking about correct society isn’t what we, at the moment, should be focused on spending our time and energies on.
Maybe thinking of something just not as bad as the current is (and looking to get worse) is where the effort should be.
Because, at the end of the day, really, can we, humans, even have a correct society?
Maybe the trick is in accepting what we are (or better, what we aren’t….), what we can (or, better, what we can’t) and work from there.
Accepting, ultimately, that, well, we aren’t that smart and good as we like to think we are.
Feels bad, a?
On practical level:
Yes, Asange could be plant and part of the “bad guys” plan. Doesn’t matter. He did bring something good.
Yes, Unz and his team/backers could have nefarious motives. Doesn’t matter. They maintain this site I can type this on. Good enough.
Then, it goes darker, or course. That desire to bring down to our level those better than us. Feels good.
Actually…..feels even better if/when we bring them below us. We are better than them now. That feels great.
Goes deeper and darker from there sometimes, but, that’s not for an online pub talk.
And:
By focusing on “proper”, “best”, “ideal”, meaning “see, can’t be done” people actually absolve themselves from even trying. That feels good too.
Even the worst trolls, agenda pushers and fanboys here at least try.That deserves at least a rudimentary respect.
Most of people around us simply don’t care.
Democracy, a? Information revolution?
Yeah.
Anyway.
Yes, I noticed that “commune” and thought he hadn’t quite got it. Is it possible that he could tighten up his posts, in terms of both logic and fact, after more time on UR threads? Precedent doesn’t make me optimistic.
Please apply your critical intelligence to the words if the dodgy Paul Craig Roberts. A convincing poseur for righteousness shouldn’t misquote the IDF as praising her “service to Israel”. It was for “support for Israel” in the UN, not the same thing. Nor Is her “service in the UN”.
BTW how could Sheldon Adamson or cohorts have formed a view of Haley’s reliably pro Israel views so as to be confident enough to push her appointment on Trump before she was appointed ambassador?
Ah, yes. The return of the Wizard of Pedantry. Hey, Wiz. Given your well displayed penchant for pedantry, I’m not surprised you would take issue with PCR “misquoting” the IDF. But, for all practical purposes, isn’t this a good example of a distinction without a difference?
I know I’m probably going out on a limb, here, Wiz, but isn’t it within the realm of possibility that Sheldon Adam&EveSon or one of his representatives simply, you know, picked up the phone to speak directly to Haley to get a sense of her unbridled aspirations of becoming the first female POTUS – i.e., how willing she was to enter into a Faustian bargain, just as the Hildabeast was prepared to enter into?
Well within the realm of possibility indeed and, if someone produced any evidence at all of prior direct or indirect connections then it could be called plausible. But I am sure we would both be interested in what evidence there is which points to a favourable view of her by the likes of Adelson
As to what you call pedantry in seeking to minimise PCR’s admittedly petty solecism, I point out that such niceties can make the difference between conviction and acquittal for fraud. In the current instance a defamation action might provide better illustration of the problem. His credit as an impartial witness might be impugned and if he were defendant and the issue was malice the choice to suggest she “served” Israel (i.e. took directions or orders from it) rather than merely supported it by speaking up in a supportive way could cost a lot in damages.
“Because, at the end of the day, really, can we, humans, even have a correct society? Maybe the trick is in accepting what we are (or better, what we aren’t….), what we can (or, better, what we can’t) and work from there. Accepting, ultimately, that, well, we aren’t that smart and good as we like to think we are.”
Absolutely correct. So, with that being said, what comes next? Well, if I were in charge, I’d institute a voluntary genetic engineering program aimed at 1.) increasing the mean IQ to 140+ 2.) altering the mean personality type to be center-right. If these two objectives were accomplished over the next 50 years, the year 2100 would be a paradise akin to Star Trek: no crime, high quality culture, peace and understanding – at least to a much higher degree than present…and all without the need for a police state. Now, it’s not really as simple as that; this will be harder than the moon landing to accomplish, but it could be done without violating any known moral principle because it’s voluntary and open to all regardless of expense. All we need is someone like me in charge to implement the program. Simple, right? The fact that there are options like this one available that would fix basically all human problems – moral, financial, and political – within a couple of generations but yet humans can’t even think about the topic seriously says quite a bit about how far we have to go as a species.
Ha, ha, ha…
A website really isn’t all that expensive to run, especially if it’s almost fully automated. Software isn’t unionized.

Would it make a difference, Wiz, if it could be demonstrated beyond reasonable doubt that Haley’s speeches at the UN were prepared by members of The Lobby?
Before responding, bear in mind that it has already come to light that The Lobby does, in fact, do the heavy lifting on behalf of the Congress by drafting legislation that directly or indirectly impacts the Jewish state.
Well…..it’s definitely better than the “solutions” being implemented as we speak.
In theory.
Not at all.
A couple of questions remain:
1. Why would the low IQ people TRUST that the high I.Q. level people, when get into power, will treat them well?
2. And…hehe…nothing personal, but why would anyone trust somebody like you with that power?
And all that assuming that the current power would relinquish it for the common good. Just like that. Because they are good people and do care about humanity etc. Crackup.
Good you mentioned police state.
Your suggestion vs that option, say…….10/90 % probability?
Assuming that the regimes in Kremlin and Beijing keep caving in. If not, well, there is that “bang” possibility, too.
Should’ve put experience/practical element in the previous post.
Bill Clinton has very high I.Q.
I am not quite sure that women and children in Waco appreciated that.
Can’t prove it, but, I’ve dealt with people with I.Q. above 140. Some of them total idiots re simple common sense, street smarts etc.
Learnt a bit from illiterate peasants with I.Q. from, say, around 110. Heard even some pearls of wisdom, and almost Pythia type forecasts, from the same folks.
There is much more to the quality (or lack of) of a person than I.Q. alone, much more.
I guess.
He smelled her.
Ever see the Creeper movies where the monster selected people he wanted body parts from by smell.
She passed his smell test, she had a big rancid mouth and a thirsty for money and power odor.
Oded Yinon’s plan for the Middle East applied to the U.S. by the same culprits.

Man, what is wrong with you? Seriously…
I outed you as “Tammy” when you were posing as “Akbar Ali” – who stopped posted early September – and magically “Jeffrey Cohen” shows up and starts posting a few days later in early September…throwing Sunnis under the bus and using the same catch phrases:
“ISIS are Godsend for Muslims and Islam”

“Brother Chuck”, saying stuff about how all Sunni ulema are going to guide their flock to the Shiah interpretation, etc.
What is your agenda??!! I sat quiet on this for a bit, but this is NOT cool!
Are you going to come back as Neil Diamond or Halle Barry next…?
Greetings brother Chuck. Who is Debbi? Some past girl friend and good old memories (grin). It is Debka.com
Must have missed my sarcasm about “Netanyahu Wet Dream”. Basically, another monkey wrench in the peace plan and it is as old as the so called, “Judea and Samaria”. Remember, Nimrata (Nikki) sitting next to POTUS, praising Jared hidden genuineness and his peace plan for Middle East.
There is a big one brewing up where USA and Turkey on one side vs. Saudi Arabia on the other side. Do a Google on Jamal Ahmad Khashoggi. A blessing in disguise, hopefully will bring Iran and Saudi Arabia together.
Good to see you back here, Talha! I suspected this “Jeffery Cohen” character and haven’t responded to his posts. These shills get paid not only by the number of their posts but also the number of responses they get. Thanks for confirming what I suspected.
I have no agenda. If you don’t like what I post, just put me on your ignore list. But one cannot deny the history and ISIS theology. What is your agenda! To stifle free speech and truth!
Imam Hussain, is the grandson of the Prophet of Islam. If you want to debate the ISIS theology, you can take the matter up with the author of the above article at Huffington.com
Please, DO NOT pollute this thread.
The allegedly non interventionist Trump, who dismisses aides left, right and centre, has seen fit to not sack his “ambassador” to NATO. BTW, is NATO a country? Why should Amerikastan have an “ambassador” to it? Is her role “ambassador” or “delivery girl of orders from the Wall Street military industrial complex”? Anyway, seeing that Trump has done nothing to her, he is complicit in her threats. That is all.
Break up of the US along the lines of the SU is inevitable, but since the Dems are not a true party but a congeries of competing ethnic groups, when the break up comes it will break into ethnic enclaves. Best to assist this break up in a planned rational way rather than wait for a Pakistan-Indian style massacre. This means several Deep South states given to blacks as a “reservation”. And New Mexico, Arizona, n SoCal to Mexicans as an Aztlan buffer state. Chinese n Jews can fight over Ecotopia. And the rest will be reserved for a white America where whites have job preference, n the borders are controlled, white births are encouraged n subsidized, n the only immigration allowed is from other whites. It’s naval vessels will be named for the Old Woman in the Shoe rather than childless gay child molesters named Milk.
Will this be the LAST PEACE MARCH ?

“Not at all.”
Rereading the comment, I forgot to put the “/s” for sarcasm. Basically, I’m the guy you’ve been looking for to fix your problems. Too bad I’m currently a nobody. We’ll see if by divine providence that changes in the future (I doubt it).
“1. Why would the low IQ people TRUST that the high I.Q. level people, when get into power, will treat them well?”
They shouldn’t. In fact, high IQ people don’t treat lower IQ people well now. Most of society is a shell game aimed at maximizing the comfort and luxury of those at the top at the expense of those at the bottom, with the bottom benefiting only via what trickles down. Those at the top tend to be disproportionately intelligent and/or psychopathic; hence, my desire to also alter personality types in order to remedy the exploitative situation we have now. We already know of several genes correlated with increased empathy, creativity, error avoidance, intelligence, religiosity, leadership ability, etc. We have the potential to start the process now.
Allowing all people to ensure their progeny are smarter, better people would benefit lower IQ people as well, which is very different from the current situation where the children of the elite are automatically advantaged by accident of birth. My system would aim to ensure greater opportunity regardless of station in life – a program open to all. The disadvantaged would benefit and society at large would also benefit.
“2. And…hehe…nothing personal, but why would anyone trust somebody like you with that power?”
They shouldn’t…automatically. Consider the position something like being the CEO of a company. Should I continue to do well, the people will support me. If not, there will be some kind of institutional bias in place to remove me. And I’m fine with that. I do not desire power (or apparently think in the same manner) as other humans do.
“And all that assuming that the current power would relinquish it for the common good. Just like that. Because they are good people and do care about humanity etc. Crackup.”
They won’t. But perhaps some miracle will occur and something positive will happen. Usually what happens is that the elite get themselves into trouble only to have a popular usurper arrive on the scene and take advantage of their weakness (Napoleon, Hitler, Lenin, etc.); although, I’m a pretty swell person in contrast to those types.
“Good you mentioned police state. Your suggestion vs that option, say…….10/90 % probability?”
I’m afraid it’s much worse than that. Probably less than 0.1% probability. The police state option is more likely, unfortunately. In that case, the only real option after that is to hope the AI singularity happens within our lifetime and that our new computer overlord is nice to us. Sad. The Roman Empire didn’t have the science, knowledge, and tools we have now to save themselves but we still can’t save ourselves even with them.
“Assuming that the regimes in Kremlin and Beijing keep caving in. If not, well, there is that “bang” possibility, too.”
There is that, but then again maybe we’ll get lucky, and it will turn out that quantum mechanics forbids such an observation from occurring. Otherwise, enjoy it while it lasts.
“Can’t prove it, but, I’ve dealt with people with I.Q. above 140. Some of them total idiots re simple common sense, street smarts etc.”
That’s a result of evolutionary psychology, not cognitive ability. That’s why “smart” people can also be fooled into believing in and promoting stupid things when they aren’t busy refusing to change their minds about something. People falsely believe other humans who are smarter are also wiser, but they are susceptible to the same kinds of biases as others on the left side of the Bell Curve. People also falsely believe that other people tend to base their opinions on fact. They don’t. Most people, including the cognitive elite, are like any other human: they base their opinions on affiliation and they refuse to accept contrary evidence when presented. This is actually a psychological defense mechanism that evolved to prevent stupid people from being taken advantage of by conniving, smooth-talking psychopaths eons ago. Unfortunately, that bit of genetic programing is no longer advantageous in our current society as we could simply choose to increase cognitive abilities across the board (everyone can be scammed…but it’s harder to scam a genius twice) instead of letting people remain stubborn jerks.
I propose using genetic engineering to change that. People would not only be smarter but be engineered to be “skeptical” (increase self-reflection) as opposed to being blindly loyal to some affiliation or being concerned with not being socially ostracized. That’s the short version as it’s actually a lot more complicated than that.
No “Tammy”, I’m fine with you posting whatever you want under any of various incarnations. I just wanted to point out to others who they are dealing with.
As I said before (now that we have established the truth of your identity) anyone who wants to take you as an authority on matters related to your claims about Islam is free to do so.
Contradiction fail.
Have fun…
Cloak And Dagger shared with Talha: “I suspected this “Jeffery Cohen” character and haven’t responded to his posts.”
Morning C&D,
Fyi, had momentary lapse of judgement, crossed the muddy Rubicon, began exchanges with Cohen because at first he seemed like a self-hating Jew.
Indeed, Talha removed J.C.’s cloak and mask.
Perceptive were you from the get-go, thanks a lot, C&D!
By way of follow-up to my previous comment that NH is in the pocket of Israel-firsters:
Excerpt from, Nikki Haley Could Be The First Republican To Win The Jewish Vote For President:
“The Wall Street military industrial complex” cannot wait to eradicate humanity, beginning with the Russians, Ukrainians and other peoples of the former USSR: https://www.globalresearch.ca/video-the-pentagons-insect-army/5656578
“Swarms of insects, transporting genetically modified infectious viruses, attack the agricultural crops of a country and destroy its food production – this is not a science-fiction scenario, but a plan that is actually being prepared by DARPA, the Pentagon’s Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency.
Five scientists from one French and two German universities have revealed this information in Science, one of the world’s most prestigious scientific revues.
…the programme is “widely perceived as an effort to develop biological agents for hostile purposes and their means of delivery”, in other words “a new form of biological weapon”. This violates the Biological Weapons Convention, which came into effect in 1975, but which has remained inactive mainly due to the refusal of the USA to accept inspections of their own laboratories.”
— Here we are again: the “most victimized” Jewish State squealing about the alleged Iranian nuclear program while nuclear weapon-stuffed Dimona is unavailable for inspection, and the sanctimonious US squealing about “bad Assad poisoning Syrian people” while the US murderous biochemical labs are unavailable for inspections.

http://www.voltairenet.org/article203370.html: “From the 100 000 page document published by the former Georgian Minister for National Security, Igor Guiorgadze, it appears that the Gilead Sciences lab at the Richard Lugar Centre, Tbilisi (Georgia) pursued chemical and biological weapons tests for the Pentagon.
These experiments, supposed to fight Hepatitis C, have cost the lives of 73 patients, of which at least 49 have been deliberately sacrificed.”
– When the sanctimonious US will be sanctioned by the sanctimonious EU and “Skripalized” UK for the criminal activities involving biochemical WMD? A plague on both the Pentagon & NATO houses and an ebola on the Presidents’ families in the US/EU/UK.
Thanks George – I read that article early this morning and was astonished by the boldness with which the Jewish media acknowledges that a large part of their community is “all about Israel,” with no concern for what damage that does to the United States.
Hey c’mon, mon, dis iz a fwee countwy!! “Fweest in da werld, in fak.
Meanwhile in Syria, the US/UK “chemical” proteges White Helmets have difficult times: https://www.fort-russ.com/2018/10/false-flag-prep-caught-video-u-s-backed-isis-prepares-chlorine-bomb/
“ISIS terrorists launched an attack on the jihadist group Tahrir al-Sham (formerly Al-Nusra Front) who are affiliated with Al-Qaeda. As a result… “two members of the White Helmets and four combatants died.”
In addition, the ISIS fighters managed to capture two barrels of chlorine at the command headquarters of Tahrir al-Sham…. It appears the U.S backed terrorists have attacked Turkish backed terrorists, the latter perhaps refusing to carry out a false flag attack which would then be blamed on the Syrian government.”
— More on the “Happy 9/11!” development in Syria: https://kurtnimmo.blog/2018/08/25/us-uk-chemical-weapons-plot-in-syria-exposed/
“Hayʼat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) is but the latest al-Qaeda clone. HTS member groups include some of the most brutal human rights offenders in Syria: Jabhat Fateh al-Sham (formerly al-Nusra Front), the Ansar al-Din Front, Jaysh al-Sunna, Liwa al-Haqq, and the Nour al-Din al-Zenki Movement (DZM).
DZM already had a solid relationship with the Pentagon. It was the recipient of BGM-71 TOW anti-tank missiles manufactured by Raytheon. The group is supported by the Muslim Brotherhood, the CIA, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Turkey. It worked with Nusra to abduct and torture journalists and humanitarian workers. It also beheads non-believers, including children.”
Well Jiles, I disagree. Wholeheartedly disagree with that assessment. Rather, I’d say that based on your characterization, Baruch’s project was monumental, epic success!
Not only did it wipe out scores of millions of anti-Semites, (often in the most horrific ways imaginable, as in burning them alive in Old Testament wrath) but it delivered their destinies to the tender mercies of the tribe.
As George Soros wrangles to open the gates of the West to the Muslim and African and entire Third World, (especially Hungary, where his predecessor Bela Kun’s sadistic cruelty to the Hungarian people was legendary, even for those times)- if every last Hungarian young woman and girl were to be gang raped, “leb syle’, in much the same way England’s school girls are systematically gang raped, this would be George Soros’ greatest triumph.
It shouldn’t.
When Woodrow Wilson betrayed the Western world by handing the keys to the US Treasury over to the world’s most Satanic men, he gave them the power to print unlimited money.
That power is what has established the reign of the tribe to unprecedented heights- near absolute power over the West.
“If my sons did not want wars, there would be none”
~ Gutle Schnaper, Mayer Amschel Rothschild’s wife in 1849 on her death bed.
And this was decades before Wilson betrayed our civilization and handed unlimited financial power to that house of Satanic hatred for the West.
So it shouldn’t baffle you, when a tribe dedicated to the destruction of the Western world and its people has at its pleasure the power to print unlimited Fecal Reserve Notes. That gives them near infinite power to buy up nearly everything. Media, governments, and to insinuate their fellow tribal members into every nook and cranny of the centers of influence in our societies.
Duh.
If you’ve ever played monopoly, and the rules were changed so that the banker could hand himself a much money as he pleased, he’d win every time. And in all probability, after playing with the losers over and over, and watching with astonishment that they never caught on to the chicanery, he’s probably learn to despise his opponents for their sheer bovine imbecility.
It’s much the same today on a larger scale. They print as much lucre as suits them to reign over the dumb goyim, and watch with contempt as the doomed goys are forced to kill each other in zio-contrived wars while their nations commit depraved suicide.
And no one seems to notice that the ones demanding all the wars, are the ones who control the central banks.

None of these “new” Russian missiles are a threat to Europe. Europe is always used by US talking mouthpieces when they mean ‘ these missiles are a threat to Israel . That is why the “US” is acting so insanely.

Ever notice that the US stock market takes a dive when Saudi Arabia is in trouble?
The system rammed down US throat in 1913 is a Ponzi dependent on someone else’s money, ultimately, US taxpayer — heaven forfend banisters risk their own shirts.

Hey Jacques,
Lysander’s philosophy is as close to mine as anyone’s I’ve ever read.
As I’ve mentioned before, he’s an idol of mine. No matter the ubiquitous tyranny and idiocy he found himself surrounded by, nothing and no one could put a chink in his iron will to think and decide for himself.
He was the ultimate ‘captain of his soul’.
Since I’ve been on this theme recently, here’s another of his quotes.
~ Lysander Spooner
Phil is captured by his past employment. He blames the CIA—as a part of the government and represented by the President—to be responsible for wars initiated by the United States. Wrong. John Perkins identifies the CIA, the US military, the IMF, the WB, and cut-outs to be the muscles for the shadow government.
Gareth Porter (http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/50373.htm ] has creditably documented Trump’s opposition to perpetual wars (as being promoted by military leaders). Unfortunately, he misses the point that wars have, and are, consistently initiated by financial interests. The government makes no profit from war. [Trump’s words at the UN are not consistent with the quotations by Porter. Has Trump been compromised ?]
The Spanish-American War involved the sabotage of the USS Maine so the Cuban sugar industry could be seized by Wall Street interests. The thinly disguised British warship Lusitania loaded with 500 tons (some sources suggest 3000 tons) of military explosives was deliberately sacrificed — with U.S. passengers — so Wall Street could have their huge investment to European nations rescued by WW I. Robert Stinnett has documented, with official government documents obtained by FOIA in DAY OF DECEIT, that FDR connived with Wall Street imposing economic sanctions on Japan to initiate WW II. The War on Terror initiated by 9/11 has skeptics claiming a false flag government involvement. Ref. http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/50337.htm
David Talbot [THE DEVIL’S CHESSBOARD] and Stephen Kinzer [THE BROTHERS] have identified Wall Street used Allen Dulles to create the CIA to hide their earlier war-mongering. John Perkins has exposed the WS pattern of economically subjugating nations using the CIA and US military. Cf. Michel Chossudovsky. William Blum has compiled a list of the multitude of international disruptions which utilize internal chaos attributed to the US government. Cf. Terry Reed, Jerome Corsi, Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity (VIPS), Sibel Edmonds, Kevin Shipp, and other CIA whistle blowers. Globalist/ Wall Street/shadow government nefarious acts have been identified by John Stinnett, John Groden, Mark Lane, Fletcher Prouty, Philip Giraldi, Paul Craig Roberts, Sherwood Ross, Rebekah Roth and Greg Palast among others.
Douglas Valentine, in THE CIA AS ORGANIZED CRIME, has contended CIA created chaos in SE Asia are being developed in the U.S. The ultimate goal, revealed in an internal memo, is subjugation of the US by collecting on the $21 trillion National Debt. Greece, with a total lose of sovereignty, is a prime example of Wall Street’s nefarious acts.
Evidence of Wall Street chicanery (in the opinion of this writer) is now surfacing in the DoJ, FBI, State Department, Treasury, and others. Cf. https://www.kpbs.org/news/2018/sep/28/frontline-trumps-showdown/. Porter’s thesis on the U.S. military demanding more aggression extends (in this writer’s opinion) Wall Street actions. [Current US aggression in the ME has been linked to oil and pipelines. Afghanistan involves drugs as did Vietnam and Arkansas. If you help the CIA, you can become president (even if you are a serial rapist or do not have a valid SS number or have your law license revoked); have your wife appointed Secretary of State (and receive a DO-NOT-GO-TO-JAIL pass); and receive lucrative speaking engagements and book publishing commissions].
If Trump wanted to strike at the Wall Street cabal, he could request the GAO conduct an audit of specific accounts of government funds involving $10 trillion annually. The accounts are exclusively handled by the FRBNY and have never been audited. Crimes are alleged to have occurred.

ADDENDUM
Legal historians affectionately reflect on the Magna Carta as the evolutionary watershed of feudal societies to elected representation of governing rulers. Seldom is it conveyed that the revolt of the Barons, who were the king’s appointed governors of His territory, was initiated after John’s decree that the Barons must fund and staff His invasion of Normandy as instigated by London financiers. War-mongering by financiers is not a new phenomenon.
If a similar revolt were to develop today, we might see the legislative state bodies rise up in unified protest. They might even point to the Constitutional provision that the States shall have the authority for “Appointment of (military) Officers…and the Authority of training the (called out states’) Militia” (which was to form the Standing Army). But don’t hold your breath. The constitutional prohibition of a standing army in time of undeclared war has been ineffective since 1946—and we have had perpetual war since then.
Hey C&D (and S2C and Chuck),
Yeah, it’s been a while. I’ve been hanging out on Mr. Karlin’s threads for a bit, so I thought I’d poke around here to see what’s been up and unfortunately came across this stuff again.
Your intuition served you well.
What is interesting is that Mr. Cohen, in his response to me cited an article by Imam Tawhidi (the self-proclaimed “Imam of Peace”). The funny thing is, Tawhidi is like kryptonite in the Muslim community. Nobody wants to go near him because he raises so many red flags – including the fact that people like Pam Geller and Robert Spencer love the guy and he says stuff like this:
Tawhidi is also throwing Sunnis under the bus whenever he gets a chance as well. Most Muslims don’t take him seriously, he actually seems to be more of a Sacha Baron Cohen caricature:
For the record, I have had Shiah friends since I went to college and I’ve read some of the proclamations by Shiah scholars (many of them top-level) and none of them have been this eager to trash Sunnis or to cause divisiveness (especially in a time when conciliatory and accommodating approaches should be the call of the day given what we are seeing on the ground) as people like Mr. Cohen here or Tawhidi.
As far Mr. Giraldi’s post, that sounds like an awesome rally and I hope it gets media coverage (though I’m not holding my breath). It’s been a while since my wife and I marched in a protest – reminds me of good times…
Peace.
You certainly know how to express yourself with the ultimate in clarity and I hope you keep it up. Bless you.
However, no “probably” about it. There is no doubt in my mind that they actually enjoy it as they fiendishly plot other ways to parasitize the marks with their own consent, approbation and support.
C’mon , rurik! Don’t you know that without goobermint, why, we’d have kay-oss, er sumpin??? An’ not only dat, but whoo’d defend r fweedumz?

Now you’ve got me on another “kick” and I won’t get anything done all day!!!
FDR’s plan of ruling the world in the UN Security Council failed, Stalin refused to be a junior partner, Mao had driven away Tsjang Kai Shek.
For decades the USA pretended that Taiwan, Formosa, was China.
In vain in 1946 Baruch pleaded for a world government.
Soros, if anything is likely to be the end of the EU it is immigration.
The end of the EU will also be the end of the euro, it may even be the other way round.
A man as Soros is playing with fire.
Congratulations to Orban of Hungary all over the place in Europe.
Farrage inviting Hungary to join Britain in leaving the EU.
So what successes ?
And what success is Israel, condemned by the whole world, just still being there by jewish power in the USA.
As ‘From prejudice to destruction’, Jacob Katz, 1980, Cambridge MA writes, ‘can it happen again ?’, it can, in my opinion.
I’ve just been re-reading Spooner, who said something very similar,
Note: Thank you, Rurik!

Well….I feel we are pretty much on the same page.
Police state save some miracle.
Or, in practical terms, get ready for the first and hope for the last.
Don’t think it will just happen. It’s been happening, slowly but surely, smoothly in fact, for quite some time. Frog and boiling water stuff. I just feel it’s accelerating. We’ll see how it pans out.

Hey RobinG!
Ugh. Has Zionist Jew hypocrisy a ceiling?
Thanks very much for post!
Agree.
Especially with:
Definitely lacking. Everywhere.
You know, that proposition of yours could actually work.
To implement it, though, a traumatic experience on global stage is necessary. To….motivate…..people into accepting it. Marketing stuff.
Well…if/when we get to the brink of M.A.D. maybe you can present it to the Oval Office. Or to underground shelter somewhere.
Tremendous post, thanks. Unfortunate that many who [must] know better routinely blame intel agencies and bureaucrats when, as you say, they are only the muscle.
One note: Afghanistan tops world deposits of valuable minerals including uranium, and the US has had designs on it for decades.
It’s been a police state from the beginning. In fact, the term is a redundancy, i.e., states exist to parasitize societies and that’s why they need police and armies.
Bbbbb-b- but wiffout guvvermint we’d have “kay-oss!”
Agree!
‘can it happen again ?’
‘It’ is the Holocaust?
This is the thingy…
There seems to be something in the Jewish supremacist id, (or narrative, or Zionism, or psyche, or whatever you want to call it), whereby they MUST rule in absolute terms over the non-Jews in their midst – who’re slated for slavery to the Jews by the Old Testament / Torah. Blah, blah blah. It is written’. And that failing that, all the non-Jews (Gentiles / goyim) must perish in the Jewish supremacist’s god of wrathful, tribal vengeance. (which today means being blended with into an identity-less, heritage-less, mongrel slave race ; )
Now, where does that leave the Gentiles?
So you see, that is the Jewish question.
How do the Gentiles and sane Jewish people who’re unperverted by the genocidal insanity of the Torah, impress upon the Jewish supremacists that demanding the subjugation and/or obliteration of the (especially White) Gentiles, is likely to cause a backlash?
It’s a difficult question, because as soon as you ask it, all the rabbis and leaders who’ve become fat and rich from the hysterical frothing about how evil and anti-Semetic the goyim are, will screech ‘SEE!!! I told you they would never accept their God-given states as slaves to the Jews!!
They’re irredeemable anti-Semites! who demand to be free!! Even when it’s brutally obvious that we Jews are superior, and loved alone by god!
‘And yet the intransigence of the cow-like goyim to reject his role as our slave, is congenital!! ‘
>><<
So this is the dilemma. The leadership of the Jews is operated by rabbis and others who profit off the supremacist lunacy. And so the more you point out the dangers of that lunacy, the more they'll screech that such observations are proof that the goyim are unworthy, and sinister and recalcitrant anti-Semites who MUST be mongrelized and destroyed!!!
When I read of Mr. Unz’s designs to take on the ADL, this is getting at the crux of the matter, and might just be the single most existential battle of our times. For both the Jewish, and the rest of the people on the planet. IMHO

Salam Talha,
Unfortunately, you are selectively reading my posts. I live in Middle East and in GCC, and I keep on writing that there is a big push to reconcile the Muslims as one Ummah (Community). Now, I know you are Pakistani, who for long time are under the influence of Wahhabism and you live in USA, so you miss the heart throb of what is happening in Islamic World. I have posted earlier that with Imran Khan becoming Prime Minister of Pakistan, things will change and there will be reconciliation with Sunni and Shai, instead of Shia being mascaraed en masses by Sunni.
1. I believe both Shia and Sunni are helping USA to get rid of Israel.
2. What do the Sunni rulers get for to help to USA. No more dream of each and every Sunni wanting One Caliph over the all Ummah ruling on all Muslims as in past. These rulers are not interest in One Caliph, they are more interested in saving their own individual rules.
3. What does the Shia get for to help USA. The unity of Ummah. Thus, the true history of Islam will be taught in all Muslim countries. The wives of Prophet (saws) will be respected along with first four Caliph of Islam. After the fourth Caliph, the Caliphate become dynasties and these dynasties of Caliphate will be thrown under the bus.
4. Wahhabism is thrown under the bus too. KSA need push and some support from outside to accomplish this. Please Google, Jamal Ahmad Khashoggi or watch MSM/CNN/Fox News for the last two weeks.
5. This will hopefully bring KSA and Iran in one fold, InshaAllah.
The Islamic history taught to Sunni for the last 1500 years, cannot be changed to true Islamic history overnight, but you have to watch the Sunni Arabic Scholars how they are changing hearts and minds. ISIS is godsend and it showed the Muslims the ugly face of Islam. The theology of ISIS (762), ibn Taymiyyah (1263-1328), Muhammad ibn Abd al-Wahhab (1703-1791) the leader of Wahhabism who got his theology from ibn Taymiyyah, Ahmad ibn Hanbal (*), Ibn Qayyim al-Jawziyya, Muhammad Hayyat ibn Ibrahim al-Sindhi.
Ahmad ibn Hanbal (*) is one of the four Imam of Traditional Sunni Islam.
If you read my posts carefully, I am very optimistic about two things:
1. End of State of Israel.
2. Ummah becoming as one.
excellent quote Jacques, and I sort of hated to abridge it, but did so for the lurkers who don’t always take the time to read the longer stuff.
But isn’t that exactly the truth, and just as true today as when Lysander wrote it over a century ago.
What, if not “servile, obsequious, fawning dependents and tools of these blood-money loan-mongers..” are those GOP stooges lined up to lick the feculent hand of Sheldon Adelson?
Is there any doubt whatsoever that Marco Rubio would lick the casino bathroom floor clean, if Sheldon demanded it?
Is there anyone as abased and obeisant to the war pig financial powers (the fiend) than Tony Blair?

Have mercy and stop the name dropping…I’m on my lunch break, I’d like to be able to hold my food down.
Peace.
Well….overall…disagree.
Definitely.
Again, do a test: park in front of a big shopping mall. Observe for,say, two hours.
Then, ask yourself, again: “could these people function without some form of government”?
80 % of people are hard coded to be followers. Fact. Can’t function without somebody else leading.
They SHALL find somebody…anybody…to follow. Always.
So…
Often.
Sometimes, though, they do exist to protect people within.
That’s one way to look at it.
Another is:
All political power, as it is called, rests practically upon its ability to deliver violence.
Visualize what happens, for example, if you refuse to pay taxes.
The full path of that refusal doesn’t end with them taking all your money; it ends with you dead.
And they don’t kill you by swamping you with ton of coin. They use weapons.
Now, the question of some interest could be:
Is the present Money Power about supporting the present Legions, or, the present Legions are about supporting the present Money Power?
Something like that.
Hard to judge how you weight your time. Wat is expensive to you.
To us, a year of a talented person’s time sounds expensive.
What you call automation, must be the closest thing to AI as it stands. Automating content and formatting both, concerning “news” where external variables change from day to day, opinionating, on top as the editor in chief add content, being the software engineer in chief, the IT department’s chief, the chief executive, the CFO of half a million pageviews (your words), running an array of egos, and paying them for attributing content (to our best understanding) is automation as never seen. Ron Unz wakes up every day, and voila, the site needs no tweaking, no managerial tasks, no adjustments to faulty glitches (pages too long). Golf carries the day. If something happens to Ron, we the passive absorbers of the believes of our choice can have unz.com as usual at our morning coffee.
Above is derisory, a distraction as to our suggestion. Repeated below.
Does Ron Unz have any kind of exterior financing that might concern unz.com. Is there no exterior financing involved? Does Ron Unz want to keep hiding in plain sight and stone-wall the question? Some readers and commenters are concerned. For now, from the tree latter suggestions, the last one is taking hold. That makes unz.com a “sleeper cell” of propaganda, to build reader market share, to uproot “evil” commenters, to be asked to put the pages weight at the appropriate time in the appropriate direction.
Technically, strategically our compliments, your effort (cheap according to yourself) stands. Exceptional journalism, exceptional intelligence, deep hidden any trace of ambition. In for the long run. You indeed are talented.
This is good and I hope for this also. Then this should reflect in your actions as well. Calling those who disagree with you as being “under the influence of Wahhabism” and saying things like “ISIS theology is part of Traditional Sunni Islam” (both of which could literally be copy and pasted from jihadwatch.com) is NOT helpful.
We can disagree on things (whether historical events, reliability of sources, conclusions, etc.) while being respectful.
Wa salaam.
Glad you liked the quote and took the time to abridge it.
It is and it is.
A truly principled intellectual such as yourself appreciates things like that and understands that the principles evinced apply today whereas some smart ass troll would have no doubt responded that nearly 150 year old stuff like that is irrelevant.
Bless you and thank you for reminding me to re-read Spooner. All the constitution cultists really need to read him, particularly No 6.
Well, overall, I don’t know of any way to make it all clearer and I welcome you to enjoy your myths. I’m a long way from caring one way or another.
As to your questions at the end, the answer is obvious and Spooner does a fine job on that as well.
Hehehe….didn’t see this coming. A pleasant surprise.
You are starting to feel as a “player”. Nice, refreshing….interesting.
A bit of feint and footwork:
A couple of jabs:
and than an overhand:
Good game plan and a decent combo.
Your corner happy?
On a more serious note, you do feel as some internal security/counterintelligence guys I had to work with once upon a time (or so I say….). “Enemy everywhere”….types. Really believed that.
On a serious note, if I may:
What really bothers you here?
I mean….even if this site IS a certain propaganda, if it’s “our” propaganda, what’s not to like?
Even for propaganda, well, post a link to just ONE site like this (comments…) which has better combination of moderation/free speech. I am really curious to see it.
Yes, there are those with no moderation, BUT, the (resident) sociopaths here aren’t even a shadow of some characters found there. Well, in numbers at least.
Don’t know. There is blurring of critique/inquiry and, well, say, some less admirable traits of human nature at works here. Just a vague feeling, of course.
You are correct. Catholic Bishop Fulton J. Sheen once remarked that: “It is easier for an educated (intelligent) person to rationalize evil”.
Witness the excuses made to justify abortion by these educated people claiming that a growing fetus is merely “a clump of cells” that does not deserve to live.
A good question, Rurik asked: “Is there anyone as abased and obeisant to the war pig financial powers (the fiend) than Tony Blair?”
Greetings Brother Rurik!
Uh…, Donald J. Trump’s into abasement obedience for less than a year, and as Iran and Syria are advertised as high on the adminiZtration’s hit-list, your selection of Tony Blair as # 1 ranking is under challenge.
Thank you. Good night & go under the Protection!
Hot off the press. The ADL’s Center on Extremism has just released their latest report on how the Alt-Right is driving the resurgence of white supremacy.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY of New Hate and Old: The Changing Face of American White Supremacy:
As I’ve repeatedly pointed out, rather than ceasing and desisting from engaging in their nefarious activities, The Lobby is doubling down. Rather than admitting they are responsible for creating this backlash by relentlessly pushing for a non-restrictionist immigration policy that would inevitably lead to the displacement of the European-majority, these Jewish supremacists have the Chutzpah to blame their victims of the policies they plumped for, by portraying them as as a bunch of losers, a fringe group of skin heads or KKKers. Wasn’t it Jeremy Corbin who recently remarked that zionists struggle to get English irony? Well, here’s another stellar example. They really do believe we are all just a bunch of Dumb Goyim.
Very fitting, considering that Elie Wiesel said
Since I mistakenly placed my commentary at the bottom of my previous post, I thought I should correct this by giving it the prominence it deserves:
Indeed…and it’s probably just the tip of the iceberg.
If they are so bold as to call for Jews to use their billions to buy all US media and press for it to become a organ for Israel and to claim publically they ‘made’ America….what are up to they don’t say publically?
Billions in our community’ — Israel supporters make frank appeals to Jewish wealth and influence
Philip Weiss on September 25, 2018
In the last year, Israel’s supporters in the U.S. have been making frank appeals to Jewish money and power as weapons to fight Israel’s delegitimization from the left.
Josh Block of the Israel Project says there are “billions… at rest in our community” that can be used to invest in media properties and make them tribunes for Israel.
TIP [the Israel Project] was founded in 2002 based on the recognition that “they who control the media, define the narrative – and they who control the narrative secure the outcomes they desire.”…
”People write a book called the Israel lobby and complain that AIPAC is one of the most powerful lobbies in Washington. My response to that is, that’s not good enough. We should be the most powerful lobby in Washington….We are entitled to use our power. We have contributed disproportionately to the success of this country. We have done so much for this country. When you think of how much better this country has become since our grandparents and great grandparents took the risk of coming here, we have not only the right we have the obligation to speak out, and use every piece, every bit of power available in support of Israel…. Look, we are the most affluent successful generation of Jews anywhere in the world, that’s the good news. … We are a very influential community. We deserve our influence.”
They even claim Jews state is not bound by any laws anywhere on anything. Their hubris is beyond any limits. They must be taken down.
https://mondoweiss.net/2018/09/legalize-landgrab-international/
Justifying landgrab, Israel says it is ‘allowed to ignore international law’ anywhere it wants
Israel/Palestine
”The Israeli government has recently claimed that it can “legislate anywhere in the world”, that it is “entitled to violate the sovereignty of foreign countries”, and that “is allowed to ignore the directives of international law in any field it desires”. This was written in an official response letter to the Supreme Court last month.
On the face of it, these are audacious claims. Is it really that bad? I would say that it’s even worse. The background to these statements is a new law from last year, which legalizes outright theft of Palestinian land.
Several Palestinian human rights organizations have challenged the law in court. The plaintiffs are Adalah, the Legal Center for Arab Minority Rights Jerusalem Legal Aid and Human Rights Center (JLAC), and Al Mezan Center for Human Rights (Gaza) on behalf of 17 local Palestinian authorities in the West Bank. The Israeli government was represented by a private lawyer, Harel Arnon, because Attorney General Avichai Mandelblit refused to defend the law in court, since he deemed it illegal by international law already when it was first passed.”…..continued.
Destroying all things of the Jewish/Israeli Fifth Column influence in the US is definitely the most important battle for the US and ME, maybe even the world at large, so more power to Unz!…..may he and we succeed.
geokat offered important reminder: “As I’ve repeatedly pointed out, rather than ceasing and desisting from engaging in their nefarious activities, The Lobby is doubling down.”
Good evening, geo!
The reason The Lobby “doubles down” is… intelligent.
They have “blank check” to buy US political influence, and such financial largesse facilitates waging perpetual war simultaneously upon specified Islamic nations & dumb goyim American subjects.
Thanks, good night, and go under The Protection! Fyi, geo, the late-C.S. Lewis routinely liked to say that to Oxford community-colleagues, some of whom considered him superstitious.
Excerpts from Philip Weiss’, Israeli reporter for ‘New York Times’ praises AIPAC at closed event: ‘You’ve got our backs’:
I especially liked this little anecdote:
I’m betting the ADL itself is composed mostly of Ashkenazim and that they’re mostly white and almost totally supremacist, so what’s going on? Are their policies expected not to drive any “resurgence” of their own white supremacy? Are they “anti-Semite” er sumpin?
Are they confused or izzit only us dumb goyim ???
There is hope, folks.
Excerpts from, Finally a US lawmaker calls Israel an apartheid state
That’s 1 down and 534 to go!
That pathetic passel of wankers would no doubt find it tragi- funny, probably grandly orgasmic.
Definición de pajero: Una persona que se masturba con frecuencia.
geokat says: “There is hope, folks… That’s 1 down and 534 to go!”
Eh-hem, geo. Will respond to your wise & energetic words (above) with a one-line poem, including a title:
McCollum Dawn.

Irish Senate Stands Up for Palestine.
Must watch!
Agree
The Jews constantly shed their skins like snakes…they are white when its beneficial to them, they are semites when that’s beneficial, they are a race when it benefits them , not a race when it doesn’t, they are people by ‘religion’, but then they are a world wide ‘nation’ of people.
They are everything and nothing.
Go, go geokat!!!!: “Irish Senate Stands Up for Palestine.”
Uh…, The Real Fighting Irish!
Am afraid a Blarney Stone-based False Flag terror attack will attempt to make Dubliner Senators kiss the Old City of Jerusalem’s Western Wall
Thanks again, geo!
Dear PG,
Yours is an excellent article, as they always are, but judging by the “chaos commenters” it is much too early to mount the barricades because too many people do not understand such simple concepts as this,
Instead, we must first prepare the ideological ground by helping folks rid themselves of the old canard and false dichotomy that it’s either the state or chaos.If we fail in that, we’ll just trade one monstrous master for another like we did ~250 years ago.
Thank you,
JS
Cynthia McKinney… and Paul Findley and Earl F. Hilliard and Pete McCloskey and William Fulbright and Roger Jepsen and Adlai Stevenson III and Charles H. Percy and…
That said, McMullum has some interesting advice she was willing to share with others who are afraid of defying The Lobby:
Spent half the day researching (and fuming over) Jason Stanley & a video/ Democracy Now interview posted in the Unz Video section
https://www.unz.com/video/democracynow_how-fascism-works-jason-stanley-on-trump-bolsonaro-and-the-r/
Stanley talks (trash) based on his latest book, “How Fascism Works.”
In one of his numerous apologias, Stanley wrote:
To P.G., Jacques Sheete wrote: “Instead, we must first prepare the ideological ground by helping folks rid themselves of the old canard and false dichotomy that it’s either the state or chaos.If we fail in that, we’ll just trade one monstrous master for another like we did ~250 years ago.”
Good evening, Brother Jacques!
The “monstrous” Globalist Masters of Chaos, & for the (exclusive) benefit of the world’s privileged few, tried to help “folks” get over the dead-ender concept of the “state”
Doubtless, their diabolical effort is breaking down, & likely by design!
And now I fear much more intense chaos, for example, major theater war, economic collapse, is planned, and the beleaguered ‘Merkin “folks” shall be forced into seeking shelter from “one monstrous master.”
With sheer respect, thank you, JS.
The Talmud has to go – it is not compatible with the human species. We cannot live with a tribe that follows its evil and dishonest dictums. Follow the Talmud and you cannot live with us – PERIOD.
Jews can have their Torah and its mean god — but they must give up and denounce the Talmud. The Talmud is a foul evil political document. It makes Hitler’s Mein Kopf look like a prayer book.

And when will the Irish Senate (Seanad Éireann) take a stand for the Irish people whom they are supposed to be representing?
The below excerpt was taken from debate about mass immigration into Ireland in May 2006 and can be found about two thirds the way down on the link to the Irish government website provided.
‘It may not be politically correct to say so but it is a major contrast to our [Irish] workers.’
Mrs White continues on in her testimony, again at Irish expense.
They dote upon their slaves.
‘The standard of service has increased greatly because of the work ethic of our immigrants…I asked my daughter where they [the Chinese] got their work ethic and she said that under Mao all they were allowed to do was work.’
And the ulterior motivations for what this push for mass immigration has historically in reality been about just about everywhere, ie a perverse form of ‘people power’ so as to divide and conquer, divide and rule, found on pg 4 of the academic paper linked below:
‘..the immigrants usually serve three main functions: cheap labor to replace native groups; settlement in the ‘frontier’ (periphery); and control over the natives and their land (Stasilius and Yuval-Davis, 1995). These dynamics generally result in the maintenance of hegemony..’

This is how real Democracy works – bottom up rather than top down – and Washington type Special Interests have problems dealing with it.
For sure!
And G-d’s “Chosen” one minute and the poysekyoottid Eternal Victim the next.
Apparently when you’re the ultimate supremacist you can be anything you wish.
Yup. Just as renfro stated.
I had the same thought after reading that.
The type always has had such misgivings and that’s why those who imposed the constitution on us took such pains to ensure that there would only be a democracy in name only. Many of them feared that “democracy” was essentially chaos and anarchy.
Our masters no doubt still feel that way, and I find it amusing that those who decry anarchy deify democracy. Furthermore, some still confuse the desire for leadership as a need for a master or a set of them. It’s partly a problem of brainwashing from mass schooling and mass media, ignorance, lack of reasoning, and an inability to grow up,i.e., political neoteinia or Kant’s Unmündigkeit. Most Americans today strike me as spoiled but hardly enlightened and that’s one of the downsides of living in a state of de facto slavery amidst relative material well being.
‘Merkins of today are beyond immature; they’re infantile, and their political masters reflect the fact. Just look at the scum we’re subjected to. The barricades are a long way from being built.
Yes, it’s incumbent upon the peoples’ representatives to ensure that a sound immigration policy is promoted, one in which the appropriate level of immigration is achieved… salt in the stew, so to speak.
Odd you would cite an Israeli academic study on “Political mobilization among Mizrahim in Israel’s ‘development towns’” to denounce immigration in Ireland.
For a more inciteful analysis of the dangers of immigration, I would’ve recommend reading Ch. 7 of Prof. MacDonald’s Culture of Critique: Jewish Involvement in Shaping U.S. Immigration Policy.
Ah, Bless You , bro Chuck, for you “get it.” You are further proof that there are glimmers of hope, indeed!
The ever increasing chaos that you’re predicting will be a lot of fun in a lot of ways and I’m laying in a stock of popcorn as we “speak,” and say, bring it on, schmucks!
Agreed. Lazy cowards are easy to dominate. Just offer to look after them and do their work for them and they’re yours.
It’s a parent/child relationship with an implicit threat (in case of misbehavior). Often found in hierarchical societies, hierarchical corporations, established religions and always present in totalitarian regimes.
Real Democracy offers adult/adult relationships.
It needs active and informed people working together for good group outcomes. The general public need to be forced into it (money, time off work, legal obligation, special meeting rooms, preparation of documentation giving opposing views, permanent staff, voting procedures etc.) to justify their voting rights and to prevent the mechanism falling into the hands of activist minorities.
Difficult but not impossible.
Under this scenario, the residents of a place like Jefferson County, Mississippi (86% Black) would make their own decisions about their own policing, healthcare and schooling, run it themselves and pay for it themselves. Inevitably it would be basic but they could have some pride in it when it worked.
Yes Chuck, readers of the UR are indeed fortunate to have none other than the illustrious sourpuss Jacques Sheete himself preparing the ideological ground for us here, at least when he is not regaling us with his side-splitting folksy misspellings, uncanny knowledge of the Indian tribes, and other pearls of wisdom like that false dichotomy he pulled out of his you know where, so your sheer respect is no doubt helpful and instructive for those casually curious onlookers here who don’t know ideological ground preparation from Preparation H, or even sheer Sheete from sheer Shinola.
With all due respect Art, one follows from the other.
The god of the Old Testament is a genocidal fiend. A super-racist, murderous, lecherous, thieving dreg from the reptilian id of our pre-civilized animal heritage from the slime.
If a bacteria or crocodile were to have a religion, it is nearly perfectly expressed in the Old Testament.
‘Kill all potential rivals to your territory. Show them no mercy! Smite them all, and take their young girls as sex slaves! Kill even their donkeys and goats, and leave nothing but Jehovah’s terrible wrath to show them who is the one and only and true god!
It chills my spine to contemplate such primitive evil as an expression of man’s highest aspirations to a God.
It’s no wonder they hate so much, when their entire religious belief system starts on a premise and foundation of hatred and murder and genocide for all non-Jews.
Hello Brother Chuck!
Ah yes, I’m more or less well aware of your opinion of DJT. There are others here who share your sentiments, and like you, whose voices I humbly respect.
But I confess I find myself more in the Z-man camp, of a ‘wait and see’ flight pattern.
Tony Blair lied his country into war. He also opened the gates to the ultimate and permanent destruction of the British way of life for its citizens. His crimes are so off the charts, that I consider him far more in the Bush/Obama/Clinton camp than anything close to Trump, who was elected specifically as a repudiation of those monstrous regimes.
Yes, he’s appointed fuckheads like Bolton to his cabinet, and sabre rattles at Iran, but for me, there is a world of difference between saber rattling and sanctions, than ‘Shock and Awe’.
The day Trump commits the ultimate crime of starting another war of aggression upon an innocent nation like Iran, is the day I will regretfully agree with you that he’s just another Tony Blair.
But that day has not yet come, and for me, two years into his administration – that means that he has not crossed that Rubicon, and there is yet still hope that he will not.
Hope is tenuous, and ephemeral, but it’s the only thing I’ve got at the moment, and so I’ll cling to it, however Pollyanna that makes me for the moment.
God bless, Brother Chuck
Morning, JS!
I intuit international Jewry honchos realize that millions of people have reached an undesirable state of mind and “get it.”
(Note: Last year Henry Kissinger issued an intelligent point which boiled down to the grim chances for Israel to survive another 20 years)
Such situation suggests to me that less cool-headed (“Luke”) Top Financial/ /Foreign Policy Command ZUSA-Jews are getting dangerously desperate for action.
So naturally, such impatient creatures want a Homeland Security “home-run” which would clear the Oded Yinon plan’s bases of Iran & Syria, very soon. As we know, Jacques, the Jews always get their wars!
And regarding the scary state of the (real) U.S. economy, as frequently described by Paul Craig Roberts, question for me is whether major M.E. theater Zionist war breaks out either prior to, or directly after an engineered & expected economic collapse catastrophe.
Fyi, below is an article from The Intercept which well illustrates the Zionist bullshit into which ‘Merkin faces are routinely shoved, and in gratitude must say, “tastes good, please give me some more shit!”
https://theintercept.com/2018/10/11/is-this-the-beginning-of-the-end-of-the-us-saudi-alliance/
If there really is underway a “beginning of the end of the U.S.-Saudi alliance” due to the Saud murder of American journalist, Kashoggi, the Jews will be forced to scrap old lies and circulate new & improved ones which demonize Saud Royals.
(Zigh). Have buttered popcorn staged in microwave oven, and am ready to watch a rerun of how the White House and (gag) Congress did nothing while KNOWING Saudi Arabia financed the wanderings of the 9/11 Arab hijacker PATSIES who were blamed for killing 3,000 Americans & subsequent millions around the world since.
Thank you, JS.
Good greetings, Brother Rurik!
Do not want to kill your hope in Trump. It’s the fiendish international Jewry who specialize in such!
Nonetheless, Trump is cut from the same Zionist cloth as was Blair and W. Bush, and as stated, he poses “challenge” to the Blair/Bush wars of terror.
Fyi, please look below at the excellent work “Killing Hope” by William Blum.
https://williamblum.org/books/killing-hope
Good day and go under the Mercy!
Actually this would be a bonus for the Israelis. Before Isr and Saudi joined up on Iran they ere enemies, with Israel objecting to US deference to Saudi on anything.
If Saudi is put into the dog house Israel and the US Jewish lobby will then become the advocate for Saudi in exchange for whatever Isr wants from Saudi.
The only thing Israel has of any actual value to any other country is its hold on the US, that is what it uses to bargain with and threaten other countries.
McCollum first came to my attention back in 2006 when she knee capped AIPAC. I immediately sent a check to her office with a letter explaining I was making this donation because of her stand against AIPAC. She and Walter Jones (NC) (who is against aid to Israel) have been the only two politicians I have donated to for the pass 12 years.
Anytime a politician stands up to the Jewish Fifth Column they should be recognized and rewarded.
Minnesota legislator boycotts AIPAC
By NATHAN GUTTMAN
May 20, 2006 23:32
”Representative Betty McCollum, a Democrat from Minnesota, has announced that she is cutting off all ties with the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) after what she described as a “hateful” and “vile” attack from an AIPAC activist who had called her office.
McCollum was one of two members of the House International Relations Committee who voted against the anti-Hamas bill last month. The AIPAC activist, Amy Rotenberg of Minnesota, spoke to the congresswoman’s chief of staff after the vote and, according to McCollum, told him that “on behalf of herself, the Jewish community, AIPAC, and the voters of the Fourth District, Congresswoman McCollum’s support for terrorists will not be tolerated.”
In response, McCollum wrote a letter to AIPAC’s executive director, Howard Kohr, in which she said that until she received a written apology, “AIPAC representatives are not welcome in my offices or for meetings with my staff.” McCollum’s letter was first published in The New York Review of Books. Rotenberg wrote back to McCollum, saying that the account of her conversation with the chief of staff was “seriously distorted” and that she “was not accusing anyone of anything.” In a separate letter, AIPAC director Howard Kohr proposed to meet with the congresswoman to discuss the issue. His letter, sent a month ago, was not answered. ”
Thanks for the tip geokat62 regarding Kevin MacDonald’s Culture of Critique. It’s excellent and I’m quite familiar with his work.
I posted the excerpt from the Israeli academic paper for its brevity in illustrating ulterior motives by promoters of mass immigration, whether those corrupted elites and hangers on pushing for it are of one’s own people and or alien.
Again, renfro illuminates, wrote: ‘The only thing Israel has of any actual value to any other country is its hold on the US, that is what it uses to bargain with and threaten other countries.”
Cheerful but Broken Scranton Greetings, renfro!
Will swerve slightly off-topic from your sentence, and discuss the thoughtful PressTV article (below) on Brexit which at first I thought was an indigenous revolt against the Rothschild elites who, like you say, “have a hold on” and rule Britain.
https://www.presstv.com/Detail/2018/10/11/576661/Can-Brexit-Help-Britain-to-Finally-Get-Over-Its-Imperial-Past
At present, renfro, this point: Nothing big happens in the U.K. without “thumbs up” from the Rothschild Banking Dynasty.
Suggest the country’s greatest threat is that, according to international Jewry design, the Rothschilds want to Make Great Britain Great Again, whether or not the British want it that way.
Their also having “hold on” the militarily aggressive U.S. makes the theater of bargaining how Londoners buy & sell pretty much of a done deal from the “get go.”
Thanks for your U.R.-comment service, renfro!
Thanks for all that, renfro! Excellent info.
Notice how the scum who wrote the headline distorted her defense from AIPAC into a “boycott” of it.
I’m going to see if she’s politically active. If so, a check, as you suggest, may be in order.
Yup. I second that!
Keyword “forced”.
But, that would hurt their feelings. Make them unhappy, feeling oppressed. No time for entertainment, shopping and social media. Would demand learning, thinking even. Oh, my……
On a more serious note, I don’t think it can work. You simply give people too much credit. Way too much.
Having said that, the suggestion definitely has merit. One element is missing: SELECTION.
Not everyone can, or should, participate in politics. Just too dumb and/or lazy for it. That’s what an exam would be all about. As for driving, for example.
After a person passes the exam then he/she can, and SHALL (“forced”), participate in a political process.
My two cents anyway.
Won’t work, ever, of course.
I went to her web site and she’s running again. OMG, I dearly want to send her a check for her stand on Palestine, but I’ll have to hold my nose. Most of the rest of what she sez she stands for nauseates me.
G-wd I loathe politicians!
I was, initially, very encouraged to learn about this brave congresswoman (David) standing up to AIPAC (Goliath).
But, after reading her letter to AIPAC, it is clear the first sentence of her concluding paragraph was probably written to save herself from being the 9th congressional victim to lose their scalp to The Lobby:
A Letter To AIPAC
April 10, 2006
Mr. Howard Kohr
Executive Director
American Israel Public Affairs Committee
440 First Street, NW; Suite 600
Washington, D.C. 20001
Dear Mr. Kohr:
During my nineteen years serving in elected office, including the past five years as a Member of Congress, never has my name and reputation been maligned or smeared as it was last week by a representative of AIPAC. Last Friday, during a call with my chief of staff, an AIPAC representative from Minnesota who has frequently lobbied me on behalf of your organization stated, “on behalf of herself, the Jewish community, AIPAC, and the voters of the Fourth District, Congresswoman McCollum’s support for terrorists will not be tolerated.” Ironically, this individual, who does not even live in my congressional district, feels free to speak for my constituents.
This response may have been the result of extreme emotion or irrational passion, but regardless, it is a hateful attack that is vile and offensive to me and the families I represent. I call on AIPAC to immediately condemn this un-American attack and disavow any attempt to use this type of threat and intimidation to stifle legitimate policy differences. I will not stand to be labeled or threatened in a manner that questions my patriotism or my oath of office.
Last week, I did vote against H.R. 4681 during mark-up of the bill in the House International Relations Committee. As a Member of Congress sworn to uphold the Constitution, and ensure the security of the US and represent the values and beliefs of the constituents who I serve, it was my view that H.R. 4681 goes beyond the State Department’s current policies toward Hamas and the Palestinian Authority and potentially undermines the US position vis-à-vis the coordinated international pressure on Hamas. The language contained in S. 2237 accurately reflects my position.
Keeping diplomatic pressure on Hamas to renounce terrorism, recognize the State of Israel, dismantle terrorist infrastructure, and honor past agreements and treaty obligations, while preventing a humanitarian crisis among the Palestinian people, are all policy goals already strongly supported by myself, the Bush administration, Congress and the American people. But, if the purpose of H.R. 4681 was to send another strong message to Hamas and the Palestinian people, as Congress already has sent with the passage of S. Con. Res. 79, then I disagree with the vehicle for that message. In my opinion, Congress should be articulating clear support for the Secretary of State’s present course of action; not creating a new law which likely diminishes the diplomatic tools needed to advance US policy goals with regard to the Palestinian people, potentially cuts US funding to the United Nations, and largely restates current law while creating on-going and burdensome unfunded reporting requirements.
As you well know, in Congress we do not shy away from condemning the vile words of despots and dictators who use anti-Semitism as a weapon to incite hatred, fear and violence. AIPAC should not have a lower standard for persons affiliated and representing its organization when they label a Member of Congress who thinks for herself and always puts the interest of our nation and people first a supporter of terrorists.
You and your colleagues at AIPAC have the right to disagree with my position on any piece of legislation, but for an AIPAC representative to say that I would ever vote to support Middle East terrorists over the interests of my country will never be tolerated by me or the families I serve. This incident rises to a level in which a formal, written apology is required.
Mr. Kohr, I am a supporter of a strong US–Israeli relationship and my voting record speaks for itself. This will not change. But until I receive a formal, written apology from your organization I must inform you that AIPAC representatives are not welcome in my offices or for meetings with my staff.
Betty McCollum
Member of Congress
4th District, Minnesota
Washington, D.C.

There is nothing not to like. The unz.com site is a sandbox (your pub allegory), a ready product. The software (format) is charismatic and “cheap”. All the difference between masturbation and sex. There is something in the corporate world called “preferential” shares. That allows for a say when buying in. Again all the difference between a sandbox and an interactive play. The commenters and most of the contributors are unaware that they entered a sterile environment.
Ron Unz not answering our call to transparency, says enough. No surprise to you either, it transgresses into the “serious” (yours). What bothers us, and not most seems to be not being invited to bet on such a successful product. The equivalent of a portable nuclear plant, an all angles Gooogle, better then Fecesbook, since scooping up less waisted trash to nuggets. The world can be cruel.
Our compliments to the psychological insight into niche group frustration, the mastery of format and content both, to Ron Unz. He who does not talk machine language is lost to the matrix. Compliments to Peter, in tune way before.
BINGO!!!
You, my friend, have pointed out the difference between the vengeful god of the jews and the merciful, forgiving God of Christianity.
The jewish god is a being of vengeance, war and destruction which demands that ALL non-believers be subjugated and even destroyed, at the whim and command of their god.
Contrast that with the Christian God of mercy, who views his creation (all humans, not just jews or the “chosen”) as beings to be guided along, shown the path to spiritual enlightenment and ultimate personal salvation. There is NO WAY the jewish pharasaic belief system has anything to do with Christianity.
Regards,
Gosh! Why not punish him by not posting on his infernal site! That’ll show him!
m_ said: “The commenters… are unaware that they entered a sterile environment.”
Uh, you did mean to write about the few U.R. commenters who are unaware of how phoney and sterile both you & PeterAUS are, right?
Excepting that all Christians of the new testament (the Testament of Christ), believe in the ten commandments of the Old Testament.
In other words, she’s a strong supporter of the thug-thug relationship.
I think I’ll keep my money and any principles I might have. To Hades with the wench.
Rurik,
All great religions have an expressed relationship with their god – and they have a set of views (a philosophy) of how they are too treat their fellow humans.
It is accepted that a religion’s views “on god” should be respected. The same is NOT true about a group’s philosophy. A religion’s philosophy on how to live with others – is not sacrosanct.
The Jewish philosophy for living with others, found in the Talmud – is unacceptable to the rest of humanity. It does not respect the norms of human behavior. We have an obligation to reject it, and to ostracize it – we cannot live peaceably with it around us.
Three thousand years ago many different peoples had the same mean-god outlook as the Jews. Most of those people’s views have evolved to be kinder and gentler. A significant number of Jews have also evolved. But NOT those who practice the philosophy found in the Talmud.
If you are a Jew who practices the Talmud – get out of our lives – period!
To ostracize is moral.
Think Peace — Art
“What bothers us, and not most seems to be not being invited to bet on such a successful product…”
– And who are these mysterious “us?” — the ADL prudes and “nazi-hunters” who suddenly found Jesus in Kolomojsky and banderites? (Don’t you like the Kagans-propelled Nazi revival in Ukraine?) Or these “us” are the Jewish Lobby stooges impotent in the face of facts?
It is entertaining to sense the condescending “adult” intonations in the puerile pronouncements of “m___ .” You are funny. At least, peterAUS pretends on being an “objective” discussant.
I used to think such thoughts, but increasingly I limit the respect I pay to that which I deem respectable. I’ve found nothing respectable regarding Talmudists. Anyone who practices or even preaches Talmudic teachings will find it to it’s advantage to get out of my life.
The unz.com site is a sandbox (your pub allegory).
Well…yes.
Interactive play. O.K.
I think I get that you’d prefer “interactive play”. I would too, probably some of authors/commentators too, I guess.
This place isn’t perfect, yes, but it’s MILES above any other I can think of. And, well, I have spent some time on Internet and do know something about Information Technology.
Let’s try to be positive and pro-active, though.
If YOU were Mr. Unz, well……how would you (re)organize this place?
Who knows, maybe he’ll even take some of your advice onboard.
I mean, he and his team have allowed your comment(s) in that vein here; I really don’t know any other site where you wouldn’t be, at least, put on “hold” for that.
So….say….YOU have all the resources and backing he has. What would you do?
And, to be fair, I’ll say what I’d do:
Save of putting every now and then some sociopaths here “on hold”….nothing much different, really.
It’s an open question and you might be right, but it’s worth a try. To do it right, local voters would have to understand that they are 100% responsible for their own county and they’re not going to get rescued/outside help.
In the case, for example of Jefferson County:
I actually think that it might work and good luck to them.
It could definitely work for a while, but then…
That was 1921. In 2018 a place like Jefferson County is not going to be invaded by white people. The black majority could theoretically sort out their own affairs – maybe successfully, maybe not.
Yes she is a ‘progressive,’ but I am willing to worry about domestic issues once we get rid of our ‘foreign issues’.
We can fight out domestic issues internally and actually even the progressive policies we don’t like aren’t as deadly as the foreign influence of the Jewish fifth column and the Israelis.
If we can remove the degenerate Jewish influence in media, press, Hollywood , gov agencies, etc. then that itself would destroy 75% of the progressives power to push their agendas.
Why do you care? Is it because you haven’t been able to find anything to prove Unz is financed by nefarious sources or any source other than his own?
So what if the site is a lab and we are all lab rats in his experiment? When I look at it that way. particularly since it is uncensored, it gives me some valuable insight into the mentality of groups in the US.
Maybe it is exactly what it appears to be …a project to till the windmills of false history, fake media and the hidden hand of our rulers.
I agree – any Jew who supports the Talmud is being anti-human. The Talmudic types must leave the West and move to apartheid fascist Zionist Israel.
Think Peace — Art
If I had to prioritize these two isssues, I would place more significance on domestic issues. That’s because there is no issue more important to the long-term fate of any country than immigration. Once The Lobby successfully pushed Hart-Cellar through Congress, the European-majority’s fate was sealed. Now, don’t get me wrong, while launching a bogus GWOT that’s resulted in the loss of over a million innocent lives and over $6 trillion from the treasury is serious stuff, fundamentally changing the demographics of a nation is exponentially more damaging because it is virtually irreversible.
I’m in sympathy with your inclinations, but as I pointed out, she’s too much of an Israeli ass kisser for me to stomach, despite her long ago (12 years) attempt to stand up to the scum of the Earth. I looked, but have not yet found, any evidence that she’s stood up to them in any significant way since. Dang it!
Something like that.
Understood…… however you realize the demographics have already changed, you cant reverse that unless you deport about 18 million people. Neither the repubs nor dems are going to do that. So the question now becomes how do we do away with the “tyranny of the minority” running the country?
I think that is easier to fix once the original instigators of ‘minority tyrants’, the Jew eternal victims, are out of the picture. They will use their lobby power to fight tooth and nail for immigrants, for diversity, for the victim mentality….that is why I say they have to go first.
Think hard..despite the non Anglos in the country who has really changed traditional society and our culture?
Regardless of how else they vote – the best thing that could happen in America – is for a politician to get on their hind feet and public all spill the beans on the Jews about Palestine and the ME.
Think Peace — Art
That has been their traditional “liberal” strategy from the outset. My sense is that they are about to pivot away from this strategy and move further to the right on the political spectrum. As I have previously pointed out, the central question of Is it Good for the Jews? must be broken down into its components parts:
a) Is it Good for Villa Jewry?
b) Is it Good for Diaspora Jewry?
Things have evolved to the point where organized diaspora Jewry will no longer be the strong proponents of liberal ideology that they’ve traditionally been strong advocates of. Two reasons for this shift in strategy:
1. Their liberal ideology has been so ardently embraced by The Dumb Goyim that they are adamant that these principles be applied universally to all countries, including, horror of horrors, their beloved Villa. This represents an existential risk to the Jewish state and its residents, which violates subcomponent a) of the central question, above.
2. The key development that made this shift in strategy possible is the effects of the double whammy of mass immigration and the encouragement of widespread miscegenation.
Their calculus was as follows: the increased risk to diaspora Jewry by abandoning liberal ideology (that had protected them from the outset) was justified by the reduced risk to Villa Jewry who were being subjected to the increasing risk due to the universal application of this same ideology.
So, instead of promoting liberal policies, which had traditionally been the lynchpin of their security, organized diaspora Jewry has recently begun the shift to their new strategy of shifting further to the right.
This shift in strategy has already been revealed by one of the key figures in the constellation of organized diaspora Jewry, CEO of TIP Josh Block. The title of his recent article says it all, “Progressive Ideals Have Been Hijacked by Anti-Semites”:
My prediction is that we will soon be witnessing the end of all talk of progressivism. They tried to maintain the untenable position of Progressive Except for Palestine (PEP) for as long as they could. But they are now prepared to turn the page of progressivism for good… thanks to the effects of mass immigration and widespread miscegenation.
Hard enough?
geokat62,
Identity politics (created by the Jews) is being taken over by the gentiles. Blacks and Latinos do not like Jews. Gays have their own intelligentsia. Jew money has lost control over these groups. These groups are truly liberal, and they do not like what is happening to the Palestinians. The divide is between gentile liberals and Jews is real.
Politically ganging up with rightwing Christians who support Israel – is the Jews only option.
Think Peace — Art
In my very humble opinion, you are correct about that and the immigration horses have long been out of the barn. The door should’ve been closed a century ago, before the Eastern European thugs brought their degenerate “culture” to the streets and high offices of this country.
True, and they have been doing that for a long time.. It’s why the US has been a de facto Fascist-Commie cesspool for a century now.
I wish that were true, but it ain’t.
In fact, it’s already been done and has failed. If one reads the political writing of a century ago, the most significant source of our woes was well and commonly known, but to say much amounted to political suicide. For instance, McCarthy is libelled, slandered and smeared to this day, and Cynthia McKinney is hardly remembered even among die hard “libs”.
In fact, even people who were once regarded as great heroes such as Lindbergh are now falsely known mostly as “anti-Semites” (G-wd, I hate that doofus term!…the worst anti-Semites in the world are the ones who use the term to snuff the truth).
Anyway, we should not look to politicians for deliverance from the big evil, since they and the system they infest are custom made to be exploited by the slimiest of the smelliest creatures on Earth and they’ve had more than 2 millennia to perfect their skills. We, the Palestinians and many others are living the nightmare that these monsters always produce.
Excellent point.
They have always been prepared to flip-flop at the drop of a hat without blinking an eye. It still astonishes me how they pushed Communism until they didn’t then back to advocating it then abandoning it again.
This was written by an ex-Commie more than 50 years ago. I find it remarkable.
Who now can claim that she was clueless?
Who now can claim that we do not need a counter-rev? However, the masses are too brainwashed to even think of erecting barricades, let alone man them, and far too many still believe that the politicians work for the benefit of the masses.
But hey, witout dem, we’d have kay-oss!
This quote, written in 1952, illustrates a couple of pertinent points that I thought would be fun to share. Those with a clue about “leftism” and the immigration problem will understand.
Many of us never learn, it seems.
With wisdom, Jacques Sheete offered the following heads up to downsized U.S. citizens: “Anyway, we should not look to politicians for deliverance from the big evil, since they and the system they infest are custom made to be exploited by the slimiest creatures on earth.”
Morning Brother Jacques!
The Jewish Lobbies exclusively provide politicians who cooperatively deliver the population into the hand of “evil.”
Regrettably, very seldom do influential U.S. politician-constituents ask themselves the key question, “why can’t we have a patriotic & moral leader like Nasrallah?”
To be fair, in the midst the Trump administration’s munition support of Saudi Arabia’s merciless aerial attacks upon Yemen including the uniquely deplored murder of “children,” at least Senator Bernie Sanders popped up to complain. (Zigh)
Fyi, JS, posted below is a report on how the Hezbollah leader leveled with his constituents, and explained how Trump is using “Iranophobia” in order to intimidate Arab states into purchasing state-of-Dark-art ZUSA munitions.

Thanks, JS, and yes, thanks to all “We the Palestinians” assembled here at U.R.!
A question for all U.R. commenters.
Does it matter that AIPAC controls the U.S. Congress?
Below, refer to LA Times article on the (as designed) static Congressional War Powers Act.
http://www.latimes.com/opinion/op-ed/la-oe-depetris-congress-war-powers-20181008-story.htm
Selah, uh anyway, the Jews always manage to get their wars.
For increased accuracy, I would have rewritten the above statement:
Backgrounder on the 1952 McCarran-Walter Act:
It increased the power of the government to deport illegal immigrants suspected of Communist sympathies.
I don’t agree. “Organized Jewry”, i.e. ADL, AIPAC, and their ilk, are unaffected by what the jewish diaspora wants.
The former will continue to act as the guardians of Israel and the controllers of the US government and other institutions – because they are the elite jews, and like all elites, they only care about themselves and their continued elite status. They will continue to veer right and promote wars.
The latter, I believe, will continue to be pushing liberal causes like immigration, because they believe that the dilution of the American populace with as much diversity as possible will prevent them from being expelled for the 110th time. They may not be wrong about that.
We can’t depend on either of those two groups to right what is wrong in our country. It really is up to us to find a working strategy to do that ourselves. Currently, Trump, with all his flaws, is our only apparent path, and taking him down worsens our plight. As I have stated before, I am open to suggestions about an alternate white knight.
You’re welcome, and yes, “Je suis (et nous sommes tous des) Palestiniens,” and there is no politician or political system poised, capable, or even willing to deliver us. In fact, one of the worst, self defeating things we can do is to continue placing our faith in such things.
Here’s a major reason why.:
Guess who she fingered as the biggest liars?
And just to be clear about what she considers the Near East, and how she found it, she writes,
She was a Zionist in her youth but later had many negative things to say about Israelis such as,
And this, from Tel Aviv, regarding the Zionist Utopia
No wonder she also wrote,
Yes, it did. But after the Commies had already done tons of dirty work. Like I said, that horse had long been outta the barn.
Don’t forget what they did to Pat Buchanan, labeling him an anti Semite and with comedians joking that he was a Nazi. He has overcome this but at great cost as he has toned down his criticisms of The Jew-ish State.
Today Tucker Carlson has to be very careful in his criticism of the Neocon cabal or he too will be toast.
But people like these two have to step up and call out the crime that is the ‘modern’ state of Israel.
Many excellent points there, but I think Trump is more of a Trojan horse or even a dupe than a Messiah. In fact, there is no political solution to what is essentially a huge set of moral problems that we in this country have been facing for a very long time, and for which we have never come close to solving.
On a different note, (and this is for geocat) I find it interesting that McCollum advocates Trump impeachment, and that tells me a lot, none of it good. Here, she describes her “top” priority.
While she is correct about the single issue of abuse of Palestinian children, she’s thoroughly, and damnably, in the Izzy camp and therefore wrong on much else as far as I can tell.
Hi JS,
Am very glad you went to Jacob’s Well and retrieved the far-sighted correspondence between Hannah Arendt and Heinrich Blucher. Thank you!
A remake of Magnitsky affair, with the Arab-American nuances: http://www.turcopolier.typepad.com
The US Congress has been trusting a tax evader and well-known crook Bill Browder and his fairy tales about the death of the “lawyer” Magnitsky, which allegedly happened in response to Magtnitsky’s “investigation” of the alleged misdeeds of the Russian State. The fairy tale has been exposed in a documentary by a harsh critic of Putin: https://nationalvanguard.org/2018/07/must-watch-russian-documentary-banned-in-the-west-the-magnitsky-act-behind-the-scenes/
Meanwhile, a real murder of a critic of a Saudi despot Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman is not going to be punished by the sanctimonious US government:
“Jamal Khashoggi went missing on 2 October after entering the Saudi Embassy in Ankara. His fiancee was left waiting outside the embassy entrance. … Turkish authorities, including Turkish Intelligence, believe Khashoggi was interrogated, tortured, murdered and dismembered by a Saudi assassination squad sent by Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman (MbS). They say there is video and audio evidence of this. Pretty damning if true. …
A number of journalists and media CEOs have pulled out of a major investment conference in Riyadh later this month. However Steve Mnuchin, Dina Powell and Thomas Barrack still plan on attending this event.”
Back to “0 down and 535 to go!”
Z-man said: “Today Tucker Carlson has to be very careful in his criticism of the Neocon cabal or he too will be toast.”
Hey Z-man,
Speaking respectfully, please keep in mind the fact that Tucker Carlson’s employed by the Jewish Corporate Media?
Lest we forget how a majority of Neoconservatives backed HRC for president
and afterward, some quickly entered the Trump admini(Z)tration. They are miscible within any Party identification!
There is cunning Zionist-strategy behind what Tucker is permitted to say now. Fyi. am eagerly waiting for Trump’s Neoconservative response to the Saud alleged murder of American journalist, Kashoggi.
Thanks, Z-man!
Post scriptum to geokat, Research Officer: Is the dead journalist related to the legendary businessman, Adnan Kashoggi?
He was, indeed, Chuck.
According to this WaPo article, they were cousins:
True.
Tucker knows to beware of the power of the Cabal.
Interesting how they pronounce the names differently. Wasn’t it ‘Cash-yogi’ for Adnan and now ‘cush-oh-jee’ for the poor Jamal? Just sayin’.
What do you know, Maduro’s starting to sound paranoid and becoming a whiner, just like Kavanaugh and his inappropriate complaining of being accused of gang rape!
Nikki was one weird chick. She dropped NeoCon threats gift-wrapped in her signature “tut-tut” delivery (in the manner of CNN’s Ashley Banfield-the-national-schoolmarm). Kanye could do her job of reading from the State Department script. Then let him riff and turn the UN upside down with self-reflection!
I’ll say this for Nikki – can’t blame her for not wanting to deal with the public/commercial air travel! She wasn’t a social climber trying to keep up with the Joneses like Pruitt was – rather, her instincts of revulsion about flying commercial seem pretty normal. She apparently wanted to avoid another fine and unpleasant mess the government has made of commercial flight.
Hey geokat!
You never let a friend-in-need of research down! Thanks again.
This Saud murder of the American journalist is weird & smacks of the hit team’s non-professionalism. Uh, I smell CIA/Mossad rats in action.
At any rate, as you likely know, the flamboyant international arms dealer, Adnon Kashoggi, was CEO of a never-can-fail Saud bank, and a playboy who “could do business” with Zionist Jews.
Posted below is Jeff St. Clair’s fascinating & forgotten December 2001 article, titled “Father’s and Sons,” the title mirroring Ivan Turgenev’s 19th century classic (fiction) book, “Father’s and Sons.”
Please consider reading St. Clair’s work which dipped into the wild world of harem- Family Man, Adnon Kashoggi, and interesting with the Royal Crawford Family Bush.

Sorry, geo, I misidentified Adnan Kashoggi as CEO of Saudi Arabian NCB.
Nonetheless, I see the murder of the American journalist as sloppy, as if Sauds wanted to get caught.
Thanks again.

At the risk of repeating myself, I have no illusions of attaching messianic attributes to Trump. I have some doubts about him being a “Trojan Horse” since he is reviled by the deep state – unless those are wheels within wheels beyond my ability to perceive. He may well be a dupe, but that would be remarkable for a dupe to have the reached the pinnacle of power (although one could have said that about ‘W’).
So, how do we solve these moral problems – we know (((who))) are creating them, and ejecting them would be the logical solution? There may not be a political solution – I think there is, but we do need to get (((them))) removed from positions of power. How do we do that, short of violent revolt with guillotines in tow? I am not even sure that the latter is possible in today’s America.
We could all resign to our fate and surrender to the deep state. In the absence of any other solution, it behooves us to help Trump drain the swamp, unless the effort is proven to be futile.
It is far from a perfect strategy, but I have not read any other solutions on this forum. Hopes and wishes are not a strategy.
Interesting development:

I wonder…
I share your suspicions, Chuck. It will all play out in the fullness of time, as the script willl slowly reveal itself. Our job is to sit tight and connect the dots.
geokat noted: “Our job is to sit tight and connect the dots.”
Regrettably geo, above, that’s all and what we could/must do.
Fyr, the article posted below described Jamal Kashoggi’s presence at the Davos World Economic Forum, June 29, 2011.
Am anxious to see how the incredible “script” develops, and perhaps get some (unscripted) U.S. police investigation detail on the murder of a ‘Merkin.
https://www.voanews.com/a/who-is-jamal-khashoggi/4610403.html
Thanks, geo!
I could not agree more.
I do not see any planned solution coming from the American people and certainly not from their “elected” officials. The American people seem too brainwashed and too dull to care enough to work for the truth, and too bone idle to do much about it if they understand that they’re being screwed by the system. In short, the masses are not mature enough to do anything but hold an opinion based on what some bozo’s been feeding them. Their rulers are in the game for themselves and will never change. It would be great if people turned their backs on them and quit putting their faith in them but I don’t see either happening.
The best I can come up with is to suggest that each individual must do his best to solve his own moral problems before there can be anything done about the bigger picture, and we all know how that would work. Another thing we can do is to work to understand the truth and to confront and challenge liars at every turn. If nothing else, that can be a lot of fun, and I thank UR for the opportunity!
Is there hope? I think so, because things have ways of evolving, and the situation cannot last forever though it seems like it has already.
Let me see if I have this straight – you are suggesting that the Pentagon is waging wars as a cover for profligacy of the highest order? Interesting.
There’s no question the principle of moral hazard poisons the functioning of any organization … The ginormity of the bureaucracy would of course produce a large multiplier or coefficient effect. What were the circumstances in play at the time accountability was dropped? Maybe the urgency from being in a near-crisis climate (just mention Iran within earshot of a think tanker!) is a sort of bluff. How can anyone ask to see our hand at a time like this when the stakes are so high!
In a similar vain, how about a Congressional Resolution to not assume any state’s excess liabilities in the event of bankruptcy? The California legislature has no idea BigDaddy may not have anything left in his wallet to give junior. In fact, California is now banking on going much, much bigger, to Clinton-scale levels of spending/fraud, because the feds will always save their a****, just like in the Fannie Mae / Freddie Mac fraud.
About Trump, you say
W’s sorry ascent to power was hardly remarkable – Establishment Dynasty trumped All … before Trump came along, that is! Perhaps Trump’s greatest legacy was piercing the Bush balloon and damning their warmonger posturing at those two debates.
One thing that must happen is dispensing with all things New Deal. A couple more strict constructionist SC justices are required – preferably Protestant males (cuz muh diversity). That’s a start.
“White knights,” real or imagined, are not a long-term strategy. I don’t think a real solution can be found without major political change.
As long as we have “representative” democracy, the small number of representatives can always be easily suborned and pressured into doing the oligarchy’s bidding. “Representative” democracy is antiquated; it may have had some justification in the days of the stagecoach, but nowadays there is no valid reason why substantive legislation could not be initiated or put to a direct vote by the citizenry.
“Do you, Joe Blow, agree to pay with your taxes for the killing of Palestinian and Syrian children? Yes/No”
“Do you, Jane Doe, agree to send your kids to decrepit, drug-ridden schools with overworked, underpaid and -qualified teachers, so that our bloated military can have three more useless aircraft carriers? Yes/No”
If we had ballots like that, we would get rid of the all-encompassing systemic rot in a hurry. (Of course that presupposes voting systems that have not been rigged. I’m sure Google and Facebook would love to provide those for free; I hear they care very much about ethics, values, stuff like that.) And that is the whole reason why all countries that have it cling to their “representative” so-called democracy – to deny their people any real political power, to keep the swamp firmly in control.
Direct democracy now. Anything else will be fragile and ephemeral at best.
I had to dig this one from a few years ago:
And that, my friend, was the fraud foisted on us by our elite founders, supposedly to counter “the tyranny of the majority”, but more to retain power for themselves over the unwashed masses. Instead, we have the tyranny of the minority. What a deal!
Yes, we do need to evolve to direct democracy, before the voting foreigners outnumber us, because once that happens, direct democracy will also work against us. Unfortunately, we can’t get there without first draining the swamp, followed by a constitutional amendment.
Unlikely to happen with a population brainwashed daily with filth and propaganda. (((They))) anticipated this and cunningly acquired all public media. The Internet is our last hope, and they are hard at work to control that as well. Places like Unz Review are the battle front. We can’t let sites like these we displaced by the hordes of attacking shills and hasbarats. The title of Phil’s post is perfect: Aux Barricades Mes Enfants!
Hey C&D!

Hey, Chuck. According to the VOA article you linked to, it appears the WaPo article that claimed that the two Khashoggis were cousins may have been mistaken. The VOA assessment is backed up by his wiki entry:
They walk through all the wonders [of Genoa] with pinched lips, as if they were jealous of everything that other nations had accomplished
Nailed it with that quote.
If one reads Jewish writings carefully…..they will see that Jews are totally consumed with envy of others and what others have created.
For the last 4 elections I have written in either Hagel or Webb for president.
Their own parties hated them, the Jews hated them, the capitalist hated them, the socialist hated them, ……They were almost perfect!
Chuck Hagel: “I’m a United States Senator, not an Israeli Senator”
“The Jewish lobby intimidates a lot of people. … I’ve always argued against some of the dumb things they do, because I don’t think it’s in the interest of Israel,” Hagel told former Mideast peace negotiator and author Aaron David Miller in a 2006 interview.
Hagel continued: “I’m not an Israeli senator. I’m a United States senator. I support Israel, but my first interest is, I take an oath of office to the Constitution of the United States, not to a president, not to a party, not to Israel.”
JIM WEBB: ……””The first purpose of government is to maintain order. And the next purpose is equally important to me, is to assure that you have a society that people believe is fair. I’ve spent a lot of time throughout my professional life working on issues of fundamental fairness.”
Most will only be protesting because Trump, not Hillary, is in office. The Iraq war was a war crime that brought mass protest out in the streets under Bush but no big deal under Obama.
I have been writing in Ron Paul.
I would say its more about “war profiteering” than anything else.
Who, in their right mind ,would ever seek to fight a “war of choice”….at “cost” ?
It makes no sense.
If you cannot turn a massive continuous profit fighting never ending, invasive wars…why, pray tell, would you do it ?
Profligacy, if it enters the picture at all, would do so as a consequence of uncontrollable bureaucratic bloat.
I don’t believe the Pentagon shelters its books (and balance sheet) from the public in order to mask its reckless, “wasteful” spending….I believe it does so in order to hide the unbridled levels of “war profiteering” at every turn of every page.
If the Pentagon bills out 60 million (to the taxpayer) for a half bar of ivory soap sent off to the theater of war, you can be sure each cent, over cost, goes right into the pocket of our “war profiteers”…not the incinerator behind the parking lot.
Hey geokat!
Fyr, posted below is a a Veterans Today article written by Senior Editors. I respect you other commenters here at U.R. and I acknowledge how VT Gordon Duff has in the colloquial & advantageously,” more than his prayers.”
What immediately struck me as very weird was the article’s (alleged?) corresponding photograph of the murdered “American” journalist. Mutilated and albeit ritualistic placement of parts, WTF, geo?
(Zigh) Full disclosure: Jamal Kashoggi’s perceived post-mortem picture brought to mind the ghastly lynching of ‘Merkin aftermath “Boots-on-ground” capture of the “evil” Iraq president, Saddam Hussein. (Zigh) At the time, even the Pope of Rome complained to the world about the hanging’s unjust barbarity.
https://www.veteranstoday.com/2018/10/13/trump-after-secret-deal-with-bin-salman-to-stop-investigations-into-khashoggis-death/
To paraphrase the song lyrics of a Nobel Prize winner, “Evil is blowing in the Middle East wind.”
Thanks so much for having patience withI me, geo!
Unfortunately Webb and Hagel were defeated by the Cabal. Hagel especially went out in a quick flame due to his own incompetence for the position that Obama gave him (Defense Sec.) and his very powerful enemies in the Neoconned Beltway.
Ron’s son Rand is the next ‘great White hope’.
Men talk the talk, women walk the walk….
Excerpt from, Rand Paul becomes the Chamberlain of libertarian movement:
Rand Paul is better than any other national GOP politician and the only one with some independent bones in his body. The other three bums in that picture are traitors, Cotton especially should be drawn and quartered.
Respectfully, some of your riddle-ridden posts challenge my meager comprehension of the message you are transmitting…
Hey geokat!
As you know, as a name-brand and aggressively ambitious to become US president, Rand Paul took the (low) “High Road” and paid homage to Israel.
Nonetheless, Rand’s conscience spark-plug selectively activates, and fyi, along with a couple colleague creeps, he signed a Congressional letter intent upon provoking a ZUSA investigation into the weird murder of ‘Merkin (cough-cough!) journalist Jamal Kashoggi.

Trump: Mattis Is “Sort Of A Democrat” Who “May Leave” The Administration
Good!
Greetings Brother C&D!
Fyi, the dagger “riddle” is an example of the, selah, cloak in me.
Well…it’s been a couple of days since the comment. Taking into account a busy person schedule, weekend and such, plus the type of (possible) reply that should’ve been enough time for a least a paragraph or two.
Nada.
The very reason I am starting to have recollections of some situations and people I worked with/for…or who worked for me.
I’d call those types “high thinkers”.
People capable of abstract thinking, connecting the dots and explaining all that it condensed lingo.
Not very good n practical matters, though. Rather bad, actually.
In military rather good in analyzing situations, even developing excellent operational plans. Just don’t give them command of even a squad.
Able to see the best approach to attack; incapable to visualize how EXACTLY the assault squads will cover those last 50 meters.
In normal world, as managers, those types are called somewhat “seagull”. They come in department with shitload of good ideas, spread them around and then leave without making sure people understood them, let alone taking ownership and responsibility for implementations.
As engineers, able to see how Five Eyes work on global scale. Incapable for setting a basic cabling under a building.
People of ideas. Just don’t give them anything practical.
That’s for, essentially, positive guy.
There is another type: a bullshitter. A lot of talk and zero action.
And there is a third: a bullshitter working on, say, unfriendly agenda.
Makes sense?
The question remains: how would you implement that “interactive” online environment?
Or anything, assuming Ron’s contacts, resources, financing, whatever? A simple….hehehe….question. Three paragraphs, I guess, each with, say, not more than 5 longish sentences would suffice, I feel.
We are trying to be helpful and positive here.
Are we?
So you want to see the basic “cabling beneath” and financing The Unz Review, eh?
Trying to be “positive & helpful,” and had I a choice, I for one, would prefer to see the wiring of Lucky Larry Silverstein’s collapsed WTC-7.
Uh, “pull it,” Commander Peter AUS.
From my citation in #154:
Thank you.
Three reasons I keep reading/posting here.
1. No little Gauleiters compensating for their pathetic lives by “moderating” online communication. A man can say what he thinks and feels here (up to a point, of course). Simple therapy necessary in this paradigm.
2. Every now and then a nugget of information and/or deep wisdom. True, burred deep into tons of kooks’ rubbish around, but that’s what effort, skim reading and ignore list are all about.
3. The last, but perhaps the most important, constant reminder who, really, are people around us. Their logical faculties, perceptive ability and, in general, their mindset (or lack of) in particular. The average voter.
People like you, for example.
Well, at least you got the rank, sort of, correct (or so I say), so compliment there. Most of your fellow resident kooks don’t even have a clue what that is; the same characters rather prolific here re strategy, tactics and military stuff in general.
Keep at it. Reminding, I mean.
I just came across this tweet from George Soros’ The Open Society Foundations. For those who may not be familiar with OSF, here is the introductory paragraph from their mission statement:
Well, rest assured that Mr. Soros is putting his hard earned money to good use. Now, as most informed people know, The Lobby had pushed for almost a hundred years to get Hart-Cellar passed in 1965. A half century later, Americans are left dealing with the consequences of this pernicious legislation. Although The Lobby has spent oodles of money trying to convince The Dumb Goyim that Diversity Really Is Our Strength, as the title – Hidden Tribes: A Study of America’s Polarized Landscape – of this report reveals, The Lobby may be prepared to admit that there could be Trouble in Paradise.
As the tweet indicates, the OSF report https://hiddentribes.us/pdf/hidden_tribes_report.pdf was conducted by a globalist initiative called More in Common. Here’s a backgrounder:
Polarization and social division? What on earth are they talking about. I thought mass immigration was supposed to be a blessing onto the nation. Could it be that The Lobby was engaging in a bit of deception? Nah, perish the thought. Only a “white supremacist” would ever think such thoughts.
Not only is the title of the report startling, I conducted a search on two terms – tribe and race – and 191 results for the former and 207 results for the latter were returned.
This, to me, is a clear indication that the hypothesis I presented in one of my previous posts may have some validity to it – i.e., The Lobby is shifting away from promoting “liberal” values and, instead, in order to thwart progressive criticism (e.g., BDS) directed towards their beloved villa in the jungle, is in the business of promoting more “conservative” ones.
While it is still early days, I encourage fellow Unzers to keep a watchful eye to see if they too can detect any discernible evidence that supports this hypothesis.
For those that are interested in more details about this report, here’s an excerpt of the Executive Summary:
This report lays out the findings of a large-scale national survey of Americans about the current state of civic life in the United States. It provides substantial evidence of deep polarization and growing tribalism. It shows that this polarization is rooted in something deeper than political opinions and disagreements over policy. But it also provides some evidence for optimism, showing that 77 percent of Americans believe our differences are not so great that we cannot come together.
At the root of America’s polarization are divergent sets of values and worldviews, or “core beliefs.” These core beliefs shape the ways that individuals interpret the world around them at the most fundamental level. Our study shows how political opinions stem from these deeply held core beliefs. This study examines five dimensions of individuals’ core beliefs:
– Tribalism and group identification
– Fear and perception of threat
– Parenting style and authoritarian disposition
– Moral foundations
– Personal agency and responsibility
The study finds that this hidden architecture of beliefs, worldview and group attachments can predict an individual’s views on social and political issues with greater accuracy than demographic factors like race, gender, or income.
The research undertaken for this report identifies seven segments of Americans (or “tribes”) who are distinguished by differences in their underlying beliefs and attitudes. Membership in these tribes was determined by each individual’s answers
to a subset of 58 core belief and behavioral questions that were asked together with the rest of the survey. None of the questions used to create the segmentation related to current political issues or demographic indicators such as race, gender, age or income, yet the responses that each segment gives to questions on current political issues are remarkably predictable and show a very clear pattern.
The segments have distinctive sets of characteristics; here listed in order from left to right on the ideological spectrum:
– Progressive Activists: younger, highly engaged, secular, cosmopolitan, angry.
– Traditional Liberals: older, retired, open to compromise, rational, cautious.
– Passive Liberals: unhappy, insecure, distrustful, disillusioned.
– Politically Disengaged: young, low income, distrustful, detached, patriotic,
conspiratorial.
– Moderates: engaged, civic-minded, middle-of-the-road, pessimistic, Protestant.
– Traditional Conservatives: religious, middle class, patriotic, moralistic.
– Devoted Conservatives: white, retired, highly engaged, uncompromising,
patriotic.
The relevance of the segmentation is evident on a wide array of subjects, from issues of race and prejudice to gender and sexuality. Progressive Activists, the most liberal group, and Devoted Conservatives, the most conservative, show strong degrees of consistency within their ranks, while being almost perfectly at odds with each other. Middle tribes, by contrast, orient themselves incrementally on the ideological spectrum.
Further evidence of the relevance of core beliefs and their associated tribal identities is that tribal membership predicts differences in Americans’ views on various political issues better than demographic, ideological, and partisan groupings. This can be seen on subjects such as approval of President Trump, Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA), and approval of the modern feminist agenda. On these questions and many others, the differences between the most ideological segments are greater than the differences between, for instance, self-described “strong Republicans” and “strong Democrats.”
Cloak And Dagger reminisced upon this conversation: “Mattis replied, “Sir, we’re doing it to prevent a bomb from going off in Times Square,” to which Trump angrily retorted that the same argument could be made about virtually any country on the planet.”
Hi C&D,
Fyi, much of what is spoken by administration officials, & subsequently trickles-down to the public, is not necessarily an indication of intent for action.
As you know, since 9/11, worldwide False Flag attacks have proliferated, and all good things of Mad Dog’s “prevention” doctrine can suddenly come to an end.
Nonetheless, C&D, thanks for offering such an interesting comment!
Prolix, Peter AUS advised: “Keep at it. Reminding, I mean.”
Okay, okay. As you please!
Remind you now that our comment exchange was catalyzed by your expressed zeal to learn all about The UNZ Review funding.
Then I lobbed back by noting an eagerness to learn about the probable expensive electronic (pre-explosion) “cabling” of the missing WTC-7.
And in the lyrics of Simon & Garfunkel, “I got no answer…” just a come-on from a hasbarist from AUS.”
Fyi, my Brother “kooks” know with certainty that a revolutionary (patriotic) government would need to “waterboard” Larry Silverstein in order to satisfy their reasoned curiosity!
Regarding your passion to determine exactly what makes the Unz Review financially “tick,” maybe you have the Zio-military rank needed to foist upon Ron Unz a couple rounds of waterboard treatment?
Good night, and go under the “average” Mercy!
I wish I could say this is amazing…!
I took notes. Both she and her husband said some damning things about the State of Israel and the goofy punks in it and I suspect they were all true.

Oh, BTW, do you own a firearm?

Thanks for the comment, for putting “liberal” in quotes and reminding us to keep a watchful eye.
I would expect nothing but shifting from one position to another depending on what they perceive as suiting them at any given moment. Also, ar you are well aware, all their high sounding rhetoric is pure, high grade BS as always.
Thanks for putting “kooks” in quotes.

There is Trouble in Liberal JEW Paradise. The political identity groups that the Jews created and controlled by funding them – are turning on them. Tribal blacks, Latins, and women’s groups are now leading themselves. A lot of them do not like Jews or Israel. For obvious political reasons, the Jew media cannot trash them publicly.
The Jews can still depend on US elite gentiles of all stripes and the Zionist Christians. That is why they are turning right.

As always you are very pertinent, we are not. The implementation, format and secondly content, the back-office of raw data collection, the lack of advertising, the use of http instead of https at times?, the reliance on out-sourced hardware, the lack of redundant set-ups, deserves better then wild guesses.
To be short then, what bothers most is the lack of raw data feeds by insider sources, which makes the analysis whatever the rational and logical approach up in the air. Saker and a pertinent situation like Syria is a good example.
Some ideas and suggestions seem to be blindsided by commenters and contributors. The long term, the global picture, not applying de facto an American-centric approach, the Jewish question never mentioning that the Jewish elites are as far apart of most Jewish Americans as White Americans are distanced from their own elites. The layered consensus of global elites. In the spirit of the approaching death of Stephen Hawking, the “biologically distinct” (our term) elites in the making. The confusion between toxicity as we post it, and the narrow, politically motivated “climate change” or not.
As you suggested yourself (the pub cosiness), our reference to a sand-boxed environment, there are just too many variables to be bounced of the walls where they deaden up for grabs. Google was made up as it went, Wikileaks had a conceptual phase more then twenty years ago. Not giving priority, relative issues, the dynamics of caloric uptake and fertility. The self imposed deadline that there must be news daily.
If one “controversial” issue should be prioritized it is, in the Western World the footprint of the individual, globally, the eight billion and growing world population, it’s dynamics. That variable has intercourse with anything, now and in the future with anything else as the dominant subverter. One of the pets of unz.com, immigration is mostly a derivative of the latter.
Just from the top of the head, we alluded to this in other comments side-wide. —Form and content are entwined, page-views and deep logic are opposite often, the goal projection of unz.com is probably more of the first. That is the choice of almost anything on the web, maybe it takes balls to steer away from it, our guess is that the global masses and their future distinctness by environment and genetically, as compared to the power elites might make the priority of survival of humanity mostly the obligatory better individual and social engineering of the ones in charge. The masses are to put it in terms of “business” and “finance”, a liability. A half a billion world population of quality could procure, abet, supply and sustain all of the goodies that might now shrink in front of the derivatives and waste they now produce.
To get back to technicalities, it is evident that the unz.com site is not harnessed for redundancy, independence, but relies on complicities. A weakness that kills when touching content where it matters in combination with exposure. Or not, …the Assange tweets were more effectual than the whole of Wikileaks.
High thinkers, Seagulls, we see fit descriptions, it is an evolutionary process from “digging holes that spit coins”, over the course of the lifetime of some. Then indeed some bluff, Elon Musk is a prime example.
No we cannot dissertate detailedly and practically in the space us attributed. Our suggestions must underwrite the substance of the back office.
Done in a burst, your argument as to our impoliteness to choke such an interesting deep issue is justified.
Apology. You aren’t that “seagull” type. I stand corrected.
Can’t say I disagree there. Especially with http/https.
Out-sourced hardware is an interesting question re privacy. Granted, no privacy then, but, as soon as one is “marked” by the real players, there is NO privacy on the Internet.
Actually…..there is no privacy at all if one is really “marked” by “them”.
As for redundant setups, well, I am, of course, not privy to actual setup, but what I can deduce, yes, you are correct. Still, at the end of the day, this IS an online pub. Should it go down for a week not a big deal, really.
Maybe you are onto this too seriously. This “Internet Information Thing”. Maybe…just maybe….that isn’t as powerful and important as you feel it is. Probably for some other conversation.
Again, this is an online pub. Not a place for serious analysis, let alone project/action. Bunch of guys talking. Nothing more…….nothing less.
A pub…….
“variables to be bounced” sums it up. Again…nothing more, nothing less.
Makes sense. Still, don’t tell me you would expect a serious conversation about it here?
You know, just keeping constantly in mind that this is a PUB would, I feel, keep things in perspective.
Now, if you want to create a place in Internet for serious conversation, again….how would you do it?
Let’s say, for the sake of conversation, I know something about related matters. I DID think about that some time ago and, well, came to conclusion it can NOT be done.
Granted, I am not “high thinker”. More of a practical guy. But…hehe..I just have a feeling I can deconstruct any such effort with ease.
That’s it. “…takes balls….” sort of sums it up. Will it and how remains to be seen. I am not optimistic.
“Reduction”, a? Don’t think it will pan out that way. More likely something along, say “Brasil on steroids” type.
Or….hehe…”Soylent green”.
Or “The Day After” even.
Who knows.
Again, depends on what you want and can, realistically, expect.
I believe that a free speech (up to a point, of course) online pub is the max possible and, really, needed.
Be realistic. Look around. Do you really think that you could do anything serious with people posting here?
If I were to do anything serious (say, create an open letter to US Congress), I’d select not more than 5 guys posting here, 8 tops, organize a place for them, give them some time and collect the work. Makes sense?
No prob.
We, “practical people” see all that differently.
Now……..ONE more thing.
We aren’t talking Elon Musk here and related matters.
We are talking …say…… Brzezinski, Wolfowitz and related matters.
There is world of difference there. A WORLD.
The game played at that level ain’t “Musk” type. The rules and outcomes are at next level. Risk/reward too. Prices paid as well.
“Musk” world is a child play compared to “Wolfowitz”.
Good analogy that “sandpit” you use. Kids playing in sand. We…here.
Anyone on Internet.
Playground where Wolfowitz types play is……..something else.
Makes sense?
So, I briefly skimmed that document you provided. Fascinating overall. I find that I don’t really fit neatly into any one of the “tribes” they provided, though I cluster to the right. Of course, it was not lost on me that a Jewish source constructed “tribes” based on values and beliefs rather than ancestry and geography, further inflating the tired old proposition nation canard, and obscuring the true notion of what a tribe really is.
Additionally, the thesis of the piece seams to be that there is a large cluster of people in the middle of the spectrum (more on the liberal side) who still buy into the American project and want “compromise.” I found myself disgusted at the amount of even “Devoted and Trad Cons” who still define American as being about values. Europe is a in a much stronger place in this regard. Anyway, “compromise”, being an implied good is interesting if you think about the dynamics of political reality. How does compromise work in the real world? Well, if you are conservative you have things like gun rights or immigration. Continually “compromising” on these issues just means that you will have less gun rights as the ball moves ever leftwards, and there will be less conservatives numerically due to immigration for the liberals to compromise with in the future.
Of course, you could flip this around on any given liberal issue and say the same thing happens there, but in reverse. However, immigration eventually defeats this mechanism, as it perpetually increases the democratic weight on the left side of the scale, even when considering the higher birthrates of conservative Americans. Maybe the point of the document is that process of globalizing the world should be less aggressive in order to boil the white frogs?
It is still clear that almost all political issues are downstream of immigration and demographics.
Does make sense. All play, no consequences.
Agree.

As it’s supposed to be in any decent pub.
Having said that, history has shown that, sometimes, in right circumstances, guys from a pub can make a difference in real life.
Say……like some guys from Hofbräuhaus am Platzl, some years ago.
It takes a stroke of faith foremost to walk in privy places.
Quality is rare so is the need for it. (Brzezinski)
Ambition breeds frustration, so is happiness the county of the deaf (doof, German for dim witted).
Truth should fit the slot.
You left TIMING out.
Any real change that has ever happened in the world of power was timed well.
The last, world stage level, was the fall of Communism, I guess. The very same people who brought the Wall down, had they tried that stunt just a year before, would’ve fared rather differently.
The guy popular around had his timing wrong once; almost got killed. 10 years later he walked into power.
Etc. Examples galore.
Recognizing that moment is something, well, don’t know but have a vague feeling, NOBODY on this site has a talent for.
Granted, sometimes the window of opportunity is within a week, even less.
I am sure we’ll see those moments in years to come; will they will be utilized well, we’ll see.
Speaking of which, author and this “march”. I have, again, a vague feeling it’s wrong timing for anything they hope to achieve. But, then, I really haven’t got talent for that.
We’ll see in a less than a week, I guess.
So this is how “Aux Barricades Mes Enfants!” ends? Bah!
For example, AUS’s self-intoxicated comment # 479 to Dementia m__ : “You know, just keeping constantly in mind that this is a PUB would, I feel, keep things in perspective.”
Time for the PeterAUS & and m__ to go bottoms-up together.

Great handle, btw.
Timeliness is part of geography indeed. C. J. Hopkins today insist on not voting to Americans in the coming elections. This is just the kind of suggestion that requires timeliness.
Not voting is the only stylish, smart, honorable, courageous statement to make, and make it now.
“And remember my son,
not voting,
but hunting down
that class of beggers regardless,
will make you a man”
“…the Jewish question never mentioning that the Jewish elites are as far apart of most Jewish Americans as White Americans are distanced from their own elites.”
– Correct. But it is not the Jewish elite that is loathed, but the unprincipled tribal mentality that supports and multiplies the power of the Jewish elites. The article on the ADL makes a good illustration to the point.
“… it is evident that the unz.com site is not harnessed for redundancy, independence, but relies on complicities.”
– You are obviously unhappy with the site. Why? Perhaps, it is the clear and practical expression of independence of Ron Unz and his site that touches your nerve.
Any chance of getting an update, even post action report, from the author?
Or anybody from the ground there?
https://www.marchonpentagon.com/march
Half an hour from the start of the advance to contact…I mean, MARCH. The tension……the last checks and prayers before the action.
Half-joking.
Can’t wait…..
Just a practical suggestion, …as it is, in an unfair environment, is it not that in retaliation by the gentile part of European descend Americans, the same ethnocentricity should be taken as an example.
Enlightnement and universal principle as a philosophy requires first a renewed position of power to be imposed and made respected by all groups and individuals. For now the game is rigged. That is what was meant as with regard to the distance between elites and commoner. First remove the influence of gentile elites that have sold out could be a course of action.
Just to the side, as you noticed and gave importance, “In politics and war (add economics and theoretical economics), betrayal is a matter of time”, then to us the more important facet to a site as unz.com…
It could be the closest format to an online “university”, a meaningful unique database, a record for the future. Content meaningful, concise, self-censuring (this is how our comment should be interpreted), …should be jealously guarded. From the pub to a quality sandbox.
Ultimately, to better it, would be to rebuild a search engine that has meta data incorporated in keywords indexed on the internet, and all other available sources of information, and the nuggets made accessible regardless of url, format (html, pdf, marked up text, …). To be practical, the whole based on a hash for every nugget. We could go on for a while with regard to “fast evolving” method and procedure. One of the requirements to get to something like the above is financing. Not a matter of it or not, that but left the who, the how and how to enumerate the collective effort. If not unz.com will hit the glass ceiling of gooooogle, Fecesbook and intermittent layers that stump and un-authenticate any meaningful information to the few within the gross bulk of an online world that are able and non-affiliated, might have little power and means in the conventional sense. In short the outliers not corrupted yet by convention.
In short, our critical stances are meant to be constructive. The place of dialogue here, admittedly creates more confusion then being helpful. Freaks as ourselves belong in the back office, if somewhere. So our apologies.
To end the note on one of our favorites, “what is (in an online world) is not important, sensing the dynamics and speed of morphing content and format is.”
You, of course, have a point with:
and
The problem is, should it become that it will be shut down.
TPTBs can tolerate an online pub, up to a point. That’s what moderation here is all about.
They definitely won’t tolerate “online university”, let alone a “sandbox”.
So, the question could be: what to do, then, about it?
Well…catch 22: that’s not topic for an “online pub”.
No much feedback re The March in the article. Naturally.
So, I’ll try.
Suggestion: first hour only, skip the rest. Admit, will be probably painful to watch, especially listen, but, give it a shot. If you can. Full hour I mean.
Just look at….that. Number of people, who they are, how they do…..that.
I mean……….never mind.
Hey, Phillip, any chance you really were with those types there? Be honest, please.
I’d understand if you gave up when you saw them. Done something better. Like…don’t know……have a coffee or something.
On a serious note, just four words: “skin in the game”.
WHEN an average American realizes there is his/her skin in that game we’ll, maybe, see something, anything. Skin, literally.
Agreed, we are out of place. A “desperate” mistake by now. The insistence only creates more confusion. Closer to IRC, chatting, is the appropriate way rather.
Ron Unz and his “Racial Discrimination at Harvard”, rather “high brow” also, tricked us into the former comment. Or are comments supposed to “follow the lead” and is contributing a full blown article supposed to be at different levels of serious? Fact has it, that indeed comments degrade as the queue grows longer, starting two levels below the tone and context of the initial piece. Is there supposedly to be hierarchy between article and comments, and is this not a sorry side effect, but desirable design?
You in the first place Peter, brief me on this, you do not seem ignorant or indigested by the articles you comment on. That in itself might be braking your own code. Do we not belong, or do we not?
Well….everything in life is a package and nothing is perfect. You measure the balance and make a decision.
This site has good points and bad points, and everything in between. At this stage, for me, the balance favors the good, overall. Free will, choice, different strokes for different folks and such.
Depends on what you want and, more importantly, what you can expect.
If…if you want a tool, a weapon actually, to challenge the TPTBs, in West, well…….there is no such thing anywhere. I mean…hehe..it it was it would be taken out in a nanosecond.
If you want a place where you can read something of a value every now and then, even post what you want, well, this is the place. Or, better, I am not aware of any better place. Again, compliments to the owner and his team.
True, the quality of posts on some other sites, at least for topics that interest me, is higher. But, so is the censorship.
So, the balance: here I don’t get muzzled by pathetic aparatchiks/Gauleiters. The price/balance is rather big ignore list and need to master skim reading.
If you really want to get serious here it is:
Around 10 % people here, tops, know how to start a process of really challenging TPTBs in West. Sort of how to get organized to do that. Or, how to get together people who can do that. Just organize an environment for REALLY smart guys to do that.
Around TEN, tops TWENTY guys posting here (including authors) ARE those smart guys. I am not one of them, definitely. Maybe…just maybe…could work for one of those smart guys, as an analyst of sort.
Makes sense?
That’s for the moment.
We live too well to risk that. Simple as that.
WHEN things get bad enough those numbers will increase, dramatically.
The catch is…hehe…”they” will be ready for that.
Plenty of options and scenarios from there on.
Good about this place:
One can read about topics of interest literally forbidden in the current paradigm.
One can post, up to a certain common sense point, related to those topics. In the current paradigm it’s simply therapeutic.
That benefits both the individual and people around him and, well, even TPTBs (venting is better than actually doing something….unpleasant).
Not so good is that majority of commentators are simply…let’s call them “interesting” people. Those we evade in real life.
Again, good is that we can work on our skills to recognize them. Plus, skim reading is a must. It’s a good thing to know anyway.
Not so good is that sites like this do maintain that illusion of free speech too.
Bad is that TPTBs can profile, with ease, people here.
Now, again not so bad is that some of those profiles do belong to certain institutions, so some outfits can keep a tab on them. Healthier.
Unfortunately that “tab” can, and probably is, kept on other profiles here too, just in case. Let’s call it “preventative detention” or similar. Being “scooped out” when deemed beneficial. Say….those
