    My goal in writing about these things is to alert you to the problems and encourage you to share your concerns with people you know and with federal policy-makers. Right now, the entire gamut of political discussion all but excludes the topic nuclear war, so if some Senators, Members of Congress, and the President were...

    You need some possessive punctuation with that, like; ‘s. Then you’re on to something.

    I know quite a few German scientists, collaborate with many of them, and none of them knows any Jews. However, you are welcome to believe whatever you wish. I would like to remind you that there are lies, damned lies, and statistics (ascribed to British PM Benjamin Disraeli or Mark Twain). FYI, I can give you many links to sites claiming that people contact aliens all the time, and even that some prominent people are in fact aliens. Does this constitute proof?

    We have been reading a lot of BS, especially in MSM. I was in Berlin not so long ago, they have Judenstrasse, they have a synagogue, but hardly any Jews. There are maybe a few hundred in the whole country, none in the position of authority.

    Haven't we been reading about Jews emigrating from Israel to Germany?

    Yes, I am a scientist, and therefore I hold that facts trump any theories. You are projecting today’s situation back 300 years, which is unscientific and contradicts known facts. For example, in the US until after WWII the rules of acceptance into Ivy League (best) colleges were pretty anti-semitic: a very small percentage of students were Jews (mind you, Oxford and Cambridge in the UK, as well as all Ivies in the US evolved from Christian religious schools). It changed now, so today Ivies discriminate against Asians instead. In Russia, under Romanovs Jews were not allowed to be state employees and were not even allowed to live in the capitals (Moscow and St Petersburg). Jews who converted to Orthodox Christianity were allowed, though. The revolution of 1917 brought a lot of Jews to power, but then Stalin reinstated traditional anti-semitism that survived all the way to Breznev’s rule. Then the counter-revolution of 1991 brought many Jews to power and riches again. In Europe, the situation differed by country and period (say, in Germany in 1933-45 Jews were not in power in any way). You can google the details yourself, if you wish.
    Today Jews are over-represented in financial, media, and political elites in the US, Russia, Ukraine, and some (but not all) European countries. For example, there are virtually no Jews in Germany. If you think that German policies are much different from those of France or UK, think again. There are no Jews in Poland and the Baltics, yet their political elites push exactly the same suicidal pro-American policies as Jew-dominated Ukraine. So, connecting Jew dominance with any specific type of policy is unscientific. That’s one of the things I am saying.

    “….there are virtually no Jews in Germany.”

    Haven’t we been reading about Jews emigrating from Israel to Germany?

    Today Jews are over-represented in financial, media, and political elites in the US, Russia, Ukraine, and some (but not all) European countries. For example, there are virtually no Jews in Germany. If you think that German policies are much different from those of France or UK, think again. There are no Jews in Poland and the Baltics, yet their political elites push exactly the same suicidal pro-American policies as Jew-dominated Ukraine. So, connecting Jew dominance with any specific type of policy is unscientific. That’s one of the things I am saying.

    BTW, there are no Jews in China, Japan, or South Korea. In fact, Chinese in Malaysia and Indonesia occupy the same niche as Jews in Europe. In Indonesia there were anti-Chinese pogroms, very similar to anti-Jewish pogroms in Eastern Europe.

    Yes, I am a scientist, and therefore I hold that facts trump any theories. You are projecting today’s situation back 300 years, which is unscientific and contradicts known facts. For example, in the US until after WWII the rules of acceptance into Ivy League (best) colleges were pretty anti-semitic: a very small percentage of students were Jews (mind you, Oxford and Cambridge in the UK, as well as all Ivies in the US evolved from Christian religious schools). It changed now, so today Ivies discriminate against Asians instead. In Russia, under Romanovs Jews were not allowed to be state employees and were not even allowed to live in the capitals (Moscow and St Petersburg). Jews who converted to Orthodox Christianity were allowed, though. The revolution of 1917 brought a lot of Jews to power, but then Stalin reinstated traditional anti-semitism that survived all the way to Breznev’s rule.

    This is an interesting group of "victims".

    Lenin (part Jewish), Bronstein, Rozenfeld and Apfelbaum were the top leaders of Bolshevism, and after taking absolute power, in their October 1917 coup, they launched the most murderous regime that Europe has ever seen.

    Lazar Kaganovich (aided by Genrik Yagoda and mostly Jewish NKVD officers) was probably the Nº1 ethnic Jewish mass murderer in history, given that he organized the Ukrainian death famine in the winter of 1931/32. Inspection teams ensured that any food hoarding was punishable by death. It’s now called the Holodomor and it is recognized as an organized mass killing of 6-7 million Ukrainians.

    The all Jewish designers and heads of the of the Soviet Gulag work/death camp system generated an equally enormous death toll: Lazar Kogan (Head of Gulag 1931-32), Matvei Berman (Head of Gulag 1932-37), Genrik Yagoda and Yakov Agranov (Head and deputy head of the NKVD 1934-36), Semyon Firin, Yakov Rapoport and Naftaly Frenkel.

    However, it is true that 20 years after the 1917 coup, Stalin finally liquidated this crowd of killers to consolidate his power (he wasn't any better).

    Yagoda and Agranov were executed in 1938 at the start of Stalin’s Great Terror. Berman and Kogan were executed in 1939 with Kaganovitch and Frenkel surviving until 1991 and 1960 respectively to die of natural causes. Kaganovitch was known to be totally subservient to Stalin in every way which perhaps accounted for his survival.

    Zinoviev and Kamenev were put through Show Trial confessions in return for their lives (but immediately executed anyway), and Stalin eventually succeeded in his long term aim of murdering Trotsky (assassinated in Mexico in 1940).

    I leave the story of Holodomor on your conscience. At the same time severe hunger with many deaths in the countryside was reported in Russia, Kazakhstan, and other parts of the USSR. There was nothing special about former Ukraine, where, BTW, the most severe hunger was in the least Ukrainian parts, such as Donbass. The Soviet “kolkhoz” system, which was designed to confiscate food from those who produced it, was to blame in every case. FYI, occupying German army in 1941-43 preserved kolkhoz system to use it for exactly the same purpose. They weren’t Jews, either.

    “Winston Churchill called the Bolshevik Revolution a Jewish movement in his article “Bolshevism versus Zionism” in the “Illustrated Sunday Herald” on February 8th, 1920. He described communism as a “sinister confederacy on International Jews, who have gripped the Russian people by the hair of their heads and have become practically the undisputed masters of that enormous empire.”
    In his book “Les Derniers Jours des Romanofs” (The Last Days of the Romanovs) Robert Wilton, the renowned foreign correspondent for “The Times of London”, reported that out of the 384 Russian commissars there were 300 Jews, 264 of them came from the US since the downfall of the Imperial Government, and he listed the names of all the Jewish leaders of the revolution.
    Reports by Captain Schuyler, an American army intelligence officer in Russia during the Russian Revolution, are kept in the US National Archives in Washington. In his March 1919 report he stated that “… the Bolshevik movement is and has been since its beginning guided and controlled by Russian Jews of the greasiest type.”
    The American Hebrew Magazine” in New York stated in its September 10th, 1920 edition that “The Bolshevik Revolution in Russia was the work of Jewish planning and Jewish dissatisfaction. Our plan is to have a New World Order. What worked so wonderfully in Russia is going to become reality for the whole world.”
    Encyclopedia Judaica boosts that the Bolshevik Revolution was so Jewish that Jewish leaders were instructed to change their names in order to hide the Jewish domination. The founder of the Red Army Leon Trotsky (real name Lev Bronstein) and Soviet Minister of Foreign Affairs Maxim Litvinov are listed as Jews in “Who’s Who in World Jewry”. … According to Rabbi Marvin Adelman’s book “To Eliminate the Opiate,” Jacob Shiff, the Jewish American capitalist from banking firm Kuhn and Leob, had financed the Jewish communist revolutionaries with $24 millions, and received as an investment return 100 million Russian Rubles.”

    Most of the Jews and half-Jews I know are non-religious, whereas you are talking about religion. In fact, any religion, taken literally, is a written justification of atrocities against non-believers (or believers in a different fairy tale). This certainly applies 100% to Judaism, Christianity (all sects), Islam (all sects), Hinduism. Maybe Buddhism, Jaininsm, or Confucianism are exceptions, I don’t know enough about them.

    It has been said that Judaism is tribal law religionized. Indeed, after more than 4,000 years Jewish religion and culture are melded.

    There might be some irrational motivations in it, but my guess is that the objective is not a war, but an attempt to crush the Russian economy.
     
    You're an optimist. Zionist targets are the physical destruction of Syria and Iran, and they have a good record of getting what they want out of the US (for example the destruction of Iraq and Libya). There's a strong antipathy towards Putin for terminating their Khodorkovsky project , and against Trump for finishing with the Clintons, but the whole "Russian hacking" thing seems to be a separate piece of planned and coordinated deception.

    For example, the US media were fully primed and ready for 9/11 and almost fell over each other to instantly explain the full Al Qaeda "Arab Terrorist" story, without the slightest investigation or doubt regarding events. 9/11 was a large and complex operation, and the planners weren't going to leave the media side to chance. The event had to be "interpreted" quickly and correctly, with the propaganda set to full volume.

    And previously, a lot of effort went into subverting government agencies to produce the fake WMD story, propagandize it, and set up the US public to react correctly to 9/11.

    The same process is in play now, with the full volume demonization of Russia, so the assumption is that the US public is being prepared to "react correctly" to some major Zionist created crisis dragging the US into conflict with Russia.

    One unlikely possibility, would be a USS Liberty type attack with supposedly Russian aircraft attacking some US assets , with the aim being to panic the US military into a Syrian ground war against Russia/Assad/Iran - although it's very doubtful that the target would be Russia itself, and the whole thing doesn't make much sense.

    Alternatively their friends may just be planning a crisis to enable the wholesale appropriation of Russian assets in the West - of which there are plenty. The test run in Cyprus went well.

    One way or the other, the US public is surely being set up for a Russia Crisis.

    “…the US public is being prepared to “react correctly” to some major Zionist created crisis dragging the US into conflict with Russia.
    – Agree. The intolerable fact that Israel will be wiped out at instance, if the ziocon plan to attack Russia is initiated, keeps the bloody psychopaths in check, so far.
    The most startling thing about the ziocons’ project (conducted on the US dime & limb) is the readiness of the US brass and functionaries in the highest echelons of power to sold out the US to the psychopathic moneychangers of “chosen” variety. The casual treasonous attitude towards the US needs and reputation has become a norm. Whether the CIA or the FBI or the State Dept., the needs of the US citizenry have taken a tertiary importance, if any. The most telling sign of the US decline is the apparent deterioration of moral fiber.

There's a strong antipathy towards Putin for terminating their Khodorkovsky project , and against Trump for finishing with the Clintons, but the whole "Russian hacking" thing seems to be a separate piece of planned and coordinated deception.

    For example, the US media were fully primed and ready for 9/11 and almost fell over each other to instantly explain the full Al Qaeda "Arab Terrorist" story, without the slightest investigation or doubt regarding events. 9/11 was a large and complex operation, and the planners weren't going to leave the media side to chance. The event had to be "interpreted" quickly and correctly, with the propaganda set to full volume.

    And previously, a lot of effort went into subverting government agencies to produce the fake WMD story, propagandize it, and set up the US public to react correctly to 9/11.

    The same process is in play now, with the full volume demonization of Russia, so the assumption is that the US public is being prepared to "react correctly" to some major Zionist created crisis dragging the US into conflict with Russia.

    One unlikely possibility, would be a USS Liberty type attack with supposedly Russian aircraft attacking some US assets , with the aim being to panic the US military into a Syrian ground war against Russia/Assad/Iran - although it's very doubtful that the target would be Russia itself, and the whole thing doesn't make much sense.

    Alternatively their friends may just be planning a crisis to enable the wholesale appropriation of Russian assets in the West - of which there are plenty. The test run in Cyprus went well.

    One way or the other, the US public is surely being set up for a Russia Crisis.

    planning a crisis to enable the wholesale appropriation of Russian assets in the West

    That is the only one that I find credible. The issue there is that West has lots of assets in Russia too (especially Western Europeans), and also that most Russian assets in the West are owned by oligarchs – maybe that’s why they were just listed by State Dept as sanction targets.

    The question is, if the mutual expropriation happens, what it stay at that?

    Well, regarding your conversation with RobinG.
    I am very skeptical about Western MSM: they lie 80% of the time and twist the truth beyond recognition the remaining 20%. The stories appear in all of them (remember alleged Serbian genocide of Kosovars, alleged Sudanese crimes in Darfur, allegedly bombed hospitals in Aleppo, the crash of MH-17 over Donbass, etc), and then disappear simultaneously, when the lies cannot be sustained any more and the truth cannot be told, as it’s against the interests of their owners. Still, there appears to be genuine human suffering in Myanmar (Burma), and Rohingya appear to be fleeing in thousands. Bangladesh confirmed that, sort of. What part of that is true, and what’s the real story there?

    the biggest problems with Western media:

    most of their talk on foreign policy is fake news.
    inside their own countries like US, its Republican Democrat Republican Democrat and repeat.

    Israel relies upon the Diaspora to coerce/blackmail Western governments to do their miso-Slavic dirty work. I don't know of any public Jew in America who isn't howling for Russian blood. (Well, okay, Oliver Stone is one exception.)

    Proffesor Stephen Cohen seems okay with Russians. There are probably others, but the point is that the loud and influential ones are Anti-Russian. They are the new Schiffs of America.

    AntiRussian Jews:
    In Canada you get people like Freeland (upa and jewish ancestry) who found one thing in common,
    to hate on the Russians. She was also at the World Jew Congress.
    Others, people like Anne Applebaum who got Sikorski into power.

    There might be some irrational motivations in it, but my guess is that the objective is not a war, but an attempt to crush the Russian economy. Or at least to slow down its growth. It isn't working, so we see the constant escalation by the West.

    "...the US public is being prepared to “react correctly” to some major Zionist created crisis dragging the US into conflict with Russia.
    -- Agree. The intolerable fact that Israel will be wiped out at instance, if the ziocon plan to attack Russia is initiated, keeps the bloody psychopaths in check, so far.
    The most startling thing about the ziocons’ project (conducted on the US dime & limb) is the readiness of the US brass and functionaries in the highest echelons of power to sold out the US to the psychopathic moneychangers of "chosen" variety. The casual treasonous attitude towards the US needs and reputation has become a norm. Whether the CIA or the FBI or the State Dept., the needs of the US citizenry have taken a tertiary importance, if any. The most telling sign of the US decline is the apparent deterioration of moral fiber.

    With Iran I agree, it seems an irrational obsession. But I have not seen much anti-Russia (direct) moves from Israel. If anything, they seem quite chummy. Sure, they were on opposite sides in Syria and Ukraine, but officially there isn’t anything like US or EU hostility against Russia from Israel. They trade, visit, invest, etc…
     
    Except that the US media are the faithful voice of militant Zionism. They are hard core Likudniks (i.e. don't even represent most Jews or Israelis) and there's nothing accidental about the intense media focus on "Russian Hacking".

    It's a highly coordinated propaganda move that has nothing to do with the facts, the same as the WMD story that blanketed the US media at the time, or the instant and perfectly formed 9/11 "Arab Terrorist" story that the media were trumpeting almost from the moment the planes hit the towers - no investigation necessary.

    Following this line of thinking, the US population is once again being prepared (set up) - this time for something involving Russia. I don't know what it is, but it's certainly designed to augment US Zionist power, and it's a highly dangerous piece of lunacy that isn't going to benefit the US or Russian public.

    A spiritual revival? Of course that will never happen because "the people" of the U.S. are just too corrupt. Years of brainwashing and calculated moral degeneracy have taken their toll. He's right: something like a catastrophic economic collapse in the U.S. might be the best thing for the world.

    That is a good analogy. Israel is the perfect example of the Southern saying: “He would ride a free horse to death”. It’s as though the Israelis don’t even realize that they are going to be destroyed by the rest of the world eventually. No people in history has ever gotten away with the kind of shit that Israel has been doing.

    I have this image from Western movies of a cowboy trying the cross a desert and he survives but his horse dies in the process. The cowboy is Israel and the horse is the US. The US horse has been flogged too much (for money and blood) and it is close to expiring in financial fireworks. But if it does what will the cowboy/parasite do, where to find another host and quickly? Will the Arabs manage to unite and wipe off Israel from the map when the host/horse dies?

    I honestly cannot understand the parasite which kills its host, honestly! No use-in-moderation policy at all and they claim that they have the highest IQ.

    I honestly cannot understand the parasite which kills its host,

    It’s not really “killing the host”. It’s more having absolute power with maximum exploitation. There’s plenty more to exploit in the US, and this particular horse is starting to kick over the traces (electing Donald Trump), so it needs a tighter harness and more whip.

    For example, the Russians under Bolshevism had every aspect of their lives controlled. Their economic output was 100% appropriated by the state, and in return they got the minimum of bad food and shelter need to survive (i.e. they were enslaved) + they got the death penalty for any criticism of their Jewish masters (which was the first law that Uliánov (Lenin), Bronstein (Trotsky), Apfelbaum (Zinoviev) and Rosenfeld (Kamenev) passed on gaining absolute power).

    Unfortunately for them (20 years later), they were all murdered/executed by Stalin along with most of the other Bolshevik Jewish leaders (apart from Lenin who died soon after they came to power in 1917) and Stalin appropriated their system developing his own repressive cult of personality.

    Plenty of Americans are supporting the Neo-Bolshevik PC agenda, in the same way that the fashionable pre WWI ethnic Russian intelligencia supported Bolshevik activism (inevitable “social progress”, “modern thinking”. “progressiveness” etc) although they were in fact surprised to discover that they, (the “useful idiots”), were the first to be liquidated when the Bolsheviks attained absolute power.

Sure, they were on opposite sides in Syria and Ukraine, but officially there isn't anything like US or EU hostility against Russia from Israel. They trade, visit, invest, etc...

    It is also hard to believe that Washington, London, Berlin or Brussels are not independent players. They are maybe used somewhat, but all of them have age-old agendas in both Middle East and Eastern Europe. Or France - they have been at the forefront of both the attack on Syria, and have enthusiastically poured oil on the Ukraine conflict. I would hold French accountable, the 'they were just puppets of Zionists' is too easy and it makes countries not responsible for what they do.

    My view is that if Berlin is messing with Ukraine, sending soldiers to the Russian border, inventing and forcing sanctions, it is their decision and ultimately German responsibility. Even blaming just Merkel is silly - it is the elite consensus among Germans, and the elites are presumably representing what Germans want, especially after a few relatively democratic electoral cycles. I know it hard to look into the mirror and see that it is actually the common people in those countries who are responsible, but it is closer to the truth than looking for reasons elsewhere.

    insects are diets in some of the least populated areas on the planet . . .deserts, jungles, remote Islands, various mountain regions. Apparently even whites are known to have a bite or two.

    Casting the eating of insects as a last resort and a sign of desperation lending credence to the domms day scenarios is is funny, but hardly a sound rational

    Hunger around the world is largely a problem of food distribution and management, not a food shortage. Even in the US the fear mongering about food shortage is common. There are people bent on using fear to advance their agenda.

    Well, regarding your conversation with RobinG.
    I am very skeptical about Western MSM: they lie 80% of the time and twist the truth beyond recognition the remaining 20%. The stories appear in all of them (remember alleged Serbian genocide of Kosovars, alleged Sudanese crimes in Darfur, allegedly bombed hospitals in Aleppo, the crash of MH-17 over Donbass, etc), and then disappear simultaneously, when the lies cannot be sustained any more and the truth cannot be told, as it’s against the interests of their owners. Still, there appears to be genuine human suffering in Myanmar (Burma), and Rohingya appear to be fleeing in thousands. Bangladesh confirmed that, sort of. What part of that is true, and what’s the real story there?

    Still, there appears to be genuine human suffering in Myanmar (Burma), and Rohingya appear to be fleeing in thousands. Bangladesh confirmed that, sort of. What part of that is true, and what’s the real story there?

    Sure there is much sufferings among both Buddhists and Muslims villagers.

    Myanmar people all don’t recognized Rohingya after their government census, after recognizing hundreds of minority ethnics, because no such Rohingya ethnic exist. Its a newly created name to sound like they are ethnic from Rakkhaine, which US use for propaganda.

    [History] what i read & heard from locals too
    Originally they came from Bangladesh, known as Chittagong tribe which Bangladesh themselves fear of, as illegal migrants. Myanmar people called them Bengali. They don’t speak Burmese, only their Bengali.

    During British imperialism time, many were brought in by British equipped with guns to slaughter Rakkhaine people to colonize Myanmar. They then settled there. So local Rakkhaine ethnic people dislike them. After independent, Bengali continue to flood in, mass multiplying. Myanmar gov tried to push all back to Bangladesh in 1960′s, but UN persuaded them not to. This create much tension between local Rakkhaine minority ethnic and illegal Bengalis.

    Muslim Rohingya start killing Rakkhaine Buddhists villagers. Buddhists villagers fight back, so forming vicious cycle. But can’t classified both as militants as all have no guns or trained. Just knifes clashing and hatred affairs.

    Then last year self declared Bengali Terrorists borned in and trained by Saudi arabia /Pakistan came attacked police posts in hundreds, killing many police and villagers, took weapons hide in forest. So Myanmar army sent in to clear them out. During this counter insurgency, hundreds of thousands Rohingya fled to Bangladesh. Terrorists killed all, Buddhists and Hindus whatever. May be own Muslims too to create refugees like Syria case? Army may take this chance to push back illegal Bengalis.

    Then out of nowhere Western msm goes turbo 24/7 hyping ethnic cleansing. All US & lackeys go hysteria demand UN emergency action, All USAid NGO pour in, UN assigned SKorean Yankees Lee to find faults..huh facts..need protect Muslim ethnic, got terrorists, US special force is ready to help..set up base…another Syria textbook scripts.

    Why? Rakkhaine had discovered much Oil and Gas. Korean and China invested. China layed pipes to start pumping back. This also serve as bypassing Malacca Straits strangled hold that USN used to threaten China. It also act as OBOR nodes for connecting access to Indian Ocean. Once pipe done, Yankees gone frenzy…read those Globalresearch reports, very detailed and quite similar to ground info.

    But likely US strategy backfired because Aungsan Sukee gov is US supported. If US push too far, their supported gov may fall. If Sukee support US Rohingya, she will lost most Myanmar voters including her party base. China take the chance, offer help to Myanmar & Bangladesh to resolve crisis, extend OBOR, develop Rakkhaine to bring economy hence all can co-live happily. Now US don’t allow Rohingya to return. Its a time bomb awaiting.

    India Assam has ten of millions same Bengalis, they are pushing them back now. India Hindu is real ruthless, this will dwarf Rohingya crisis.

    Most of the Jews and half-Jews I know are non-religious, whereas you are talking about religion. In fact, any religion, taken literally, is a written justification of atrocities against non-believers (or believers in a different fairy tale). This certainly applies 100% to Judaism, Christianity (all sects), Islam (all sects), Hinduism. Maybe Buddhism, Jaininsm, or Confucianism are exceptions, I don’t know enough about them.

    Maybe Buddhism, Jaininsm, or Confucianism are exceptions, I don’t know enough about them.

    From Buddhist Anon
    These are what I have learned about Buddhism and Confucianism, Taoism too, are all not religion, as they don’t profess or believe in any creator god. So they don’t need eliminate non believers, and only share with those desire to know and live in harmony with the mother Nature Law.

    Buddhism According to 2500BC ancient sacred texts of Theravada:

    [MORE]

    A great human being arise in this world, determined to find the Truth of Nature Law, through many lifes of cultivating wisdom and qualities, he finally achieve Omniscient Perfect Enlightenment, realizing the Truth perfectly. He become another Buddha, means Self Awaken One. He is not a creator, nor god, just a superior beings achieving the highest wisdom and ability that a being can cultivate. And He preached the Truth for whoever wish to know, Four Noble Truths, Eight Noble Paths that can be systematically practise to cultivate the mind, leading to liberation from all sufferings.

    This Universal Truth Law is called Dhamma in Pali, a root language used in ancient Himalaya region. Nature Law works in a fixed law called Kamma( Cause & Effect). You do this cause, you get this effect, and this kammic force will accumulate over endless cycle of rebirths affecting existing cause to result in new effect for future. This explained the way why people are borned differently, Smart-Dumb, Rich-Poor, Nice-Ugly, Healthy-Sick,….(Not some quality control defects in creator production lines churning out some good some bad from birth, some unlucky one born in Syria get bomb, lucky one in Switzerland at peace. This help solve my puzzle when i attend church.)

    It also explained the multi dimensional world we are living with other beings in endless rebirth. Hell is lowest level deep under the earth. Animals & human, some low deities shared our ground level. Above there are multi levels of deities. Further up, multilevel of Brahma(Hindu believe as highest creator). Some beings in same dimension we can see, some we can’t like ghost or deities in different dimension unless they wish to reveal themselves. Universe has no boundary, containing infinite similar world solar systems exactly like ours, aliens look like us with some quality variance, not some ET creatures flying to our earth with UFO(cannot happen while Buddhism still exist). The world systems will destroyed according to a fix rule(by extreme wind, or multiple suns heat, or extreme water), and reform again with another fix rule. There are black holes among world systems, like the space form when 3 bowls put together. These black holes are the special hells that don’t get destroy like ordinary hells inside earth when the world systems destroyed. No lights can exist there except during certain occasions.

    It also explain how mind & materiality compose of in Abhidhamma.

    Materiality is make up of tiny particles called kalapa. Further breakdown, this tiny particle is make up of 8~11kinds of elements, like hardness, cohesiveness, temperature, vibration, color, nutriments,….(that explain what’s inside the tiniest photon particle theory, its combination of various ultimate elements like energy, no real mass form substance).

    Mind has no form as its not material, depending on some blood inside our heart base to survive, it has combinations of different mind moments…complex but explain how mind work like superomputer programming, with this input combination, it generated this output combination after comparing with its memory(data base), hence output thinking, perceptions and generate actions movement. All in billionth of split sec speed no machines can measure. Only way to see them is by training your mind systematically through meditation to see them yourself(at similar speed).

    Confucianism is philosophy of life, based on cultivating virtues and ethics, emphasizing humanity, malevolent, and eventually attaining sainthood(no longer doing any unvirtue thing even alone unseen by others) complying with the highest nature law as they believe. In Buddhism, this only reach worldly virtue level but not real sainthood as the evils is suppressed but not cut off.

    Taoism is another philosophy, trying to explain that there is a Nature Law exist in univese working in a fixed pattern. It called this nature law as Tao. And teach how to live harmonizing with nature through understanding this Tao by observing the nature, not against nature. But it couldn’t understand how this Law actually work, so it stop at there. This law is explained in Buddhism as the Law of Kamma.

    Good post. Agree. Especially on how this US people calmly watches itself going to hell step by step.

    Add some more details, seems like things will go that way:
    - the more US troops near our borders and in Syria - more incidents on mutial presence in the same place
    - the more stupid accusations in millions of sins to Russia
    - more different sanctions targeted to personalities to intervene to our elections
    - lethal weapons in Ukrain and probably some alike actions from Russia.
    - attempts to get things harder in Ukrain (reintegration law) and Syria (border provocations and arming all the rubbish left from DAESH)
    - increase of military budget and arms race

    Where for God sake all this can lead us? Can you guess?
    Yes, only destroying this center of world evil can help, but this does not seem to be very likely

    Yankees only bully country without retaliation means, even Iran or North Korea prove too much for it. The moment Polar bear roar, Yankees will run away. China has a very good word for Yankees: Paper Tiger.

    Putin lacked that manly killing instinct to stop US harassment. Yankees has tested Russia in Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Balkan, Georgia, Ukraine, Syria. Russia always blink his tearing eyes.

    US Pacific fleet commander little Jap Harry shrieking: “war start tonight” in SCS. Xi send in his little navy. Harry disappeared. Obama panicked into recovery mode.
    Trumps said: “what’s wrong to call Taiwan pres”. Xi refused to take his call. DT asked his granddaughter: “Go help Granpa apologize, sing Mandarin song in Chinese Embassy.”

    NK Kim beats Trumps hands down.

    Trump: We will destroy whole NK. Fried it.

    NK : Its war declaration, we will shoot down US warplanes in international airspace as defense.

    WH panicked : Its absurb, we never declare war. All should abide UN law, no one should ever attack another sovereign nation in international space or water….US blink.

    Kim laughing: Ok, ok, Yankees my nuclear weapon testing finish, let’s have some fun in SKorea winter Olympics now. Russia is banned, we are welcome.

    Partly I would agree with that. Here is just one little problem when dealing with a monkey who has a hand grenade.
    But yes, in many cases he sould have been tougher like it was in Crimea. Especially when it not leads to possible military clash like sports, sanctions, diplomatic property cases ...

    It has been said that Judaism is tribal law religionized. Indeed, after more than 4,000 years Jewish religion and culture are melded. Non-religious Jews are quite capable of prosecuting Talmudic violence, as Winston Churchill observed in the USSR, and as we ourselves observe in Gaza and the global genocide against Whites.

    The "Jews are just like everybody else." response is worn out like the Hasbara talking point it's taken from.

    Don't think so, we are always were betrayed even by those we saved, like Bulgarians, yugoslavian, polish and others. Emperor Alexander III said: Russia has only two ally: its army and navy
    Now we can add and aerospace forces
    We can see world "support" for example in sports matters, sanctions etc. Well, we just getting angrier and do those three allies more powerful.

    From all i know, most are supporting Russia including US & Nato people. Many got piss off by US terrorism Syria war, Wada/Olympics nonsense. Didn’t you see that steriod pump monstrous tennis player vs lovely Russian lady?

    And Russia has proven its 1st class integrated military power with superior command & logistic control in Syria war we thought had gone with Soviet. Many are drooling on Ruskies weapon now.

    The more hysteria Yankees & lackeys bark, it means more fear. All are just harassment. No one will attack Russia, your button is biggest. Now get some good sleep and send us more good news about next poking Yankees ass.

    Granpa, still all Potus are born raised in US soil. Nothing to do with new migrants, its the failed system, and US people either psychopathic or absolutely ignorant to vote in every war monger leaders in a row. Kissinger is just only one.

    Not a single protest ever raise by people when atrocious warssss are waging till this moment. But come to trivial things, LBGT or some abortion issues, people take to street in number, congressmen vehemently fighting for actions. Which means you and your elected reps are capable of fighting for own interest, yet don't give a damn to others lives.

    To elect murderers, and connive to their actions are tantamount to accomplices.

    Good post. Agree. Especially on how this US people calmly watches itself going to hell step by step.

    Add some more details, seems like things will go that way:
    - the more US troops near our borders and in Syria – more incidents on mutial presence in the same place
    - the more stupid accusations in millions of sins to Russia
    - more different sanctions targeted to personalities to intervene to our elections
    - lethal weapons in Ukrain and probably some alike actions from Russia.
    – attempts to get things harder in Ukrain (reintegration law) and Syria (border provocations and arming all the rubbish left from DAESH)
    - increase of military budget and arms race

    Where for God sake all this can lead us? Can you guess?

    No human being in all of history has done more damage to USA and the American people .... than Henry Kissinger. He was, in effect, the president for foreign and military policy during the Ford administration and did plenty of damage both before and after. He did enormous harm around the world, as well as tremendous damage to the USA.

    Kissinger was as far from born-and-raised-in-USA as it is possible to be and yet be a US citizen. He was born and raised in Germany and came to the USA in 1938, having been born in Germany in 1923. We will probably never know how high his security clearance went. It was virtually 'the sky's the limit'. So there's no law against foreign-born being given security clearances, but it looks like there sure should be!

    But I think you go too far about peaceful cities in Tojo’s Japan in World War II.

    It doesn’t bother you that you have killed tens an hundreds of thousands of peaceful people. Really peaceful, probaly there were few hundreds or even thouthands of militaries among them. But you’ve killed peaceful people and still persit it was right.
    Yes Japanese were criminals that time, but it does not mean that you can kill childs and women, but you did and so you are criminal even worse than your enemy.

    You did it in Japan and than in many other places like Serbia, Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, Syria and many others and still people like you feel no responcibility for that.
    That’s why your country is world scale criminal.

    The thing is that this country, USA, absorbs all kinds of people from all over the world, so we have among us people who glorify the Nazis of Ukraine, or whatever, but they are not what I would call Americans, not born-and-raised in USA. We have gotten tired of all that, so when people say, like, Jews who say that Israel is threatened by the horrible Arabs, etc., we tend to just say, Oh yeah, sure. That has something to do with why we don’t want any more immigrants.

    Most of the Jews and half-Jews I know are non-religious, whereas you are talking about religion. In fact, any religion, taken literally, is a written justification of atrocities against non-believers (or believers in a different fairy tale). This certainly applies 100% to Judaism, Christianity (all sects), Islam (all sects), Hinduism. Maybe Buddhism, Jaininsm, or Confucianism are exceptions, I don’t know enough about them.

    Imbeciles like McCain or H.Clinton know that their life near the end and probably life of others is out of theirs interest, but what about others 300 millions of people?

    America is the center of the world, America … God help us.

    Yuri,

    The reason I responded is that you specifically asked for a response from an American. And the reason I addressed the Mama Bear aspect of Russia is that, you know, Mama Bear is legendary especially in western USA — if you rile her up or bother her cubs … well, that’s not something you want to do.

    As annoying as it is when MSM lies to us, pretending that we actually believe those lies, it’s even more annoying when they pretend to speak for us Americans about something like Russia or Ukraine.

    Americans don’t believe any of it — maybe we once did believe the okeydoke, but not anymore. That’s probably the biggest reason that Trump was elected. He campaigned against the mainstream global-corporations-owned media.

    Israel alone doesn’t have the power to take on Iran and Russia
     
    With Iran I agree, it seems an irrational obsession. But I have not seen much anti-Russia (direct) moves from Israel. If anything, they seem quite chummy. Sure, they were on opposite sides in Syria and Ukraine, but officially there isn't anything like US or EU hostility against Russia from Israel. They trade, visit, invest, etc...

    It is also hard to believe that Washington, London, Berlin or Brussels are not independent players. They are maybe used somewhat, but all of them have age-old agendas in both Middle East and Eastern Europe. Or France - they have been at the forefront of both the attack on Syria, and have enthusiastically poured oil on the Ukraine conflict. I would hold French accountable, the 'they were just puppets of Zionists' is too easy and it makes countries not responsible for what they do.

    My view is that if Berlin is messing with Ukraine, sending soldiers to the Russian border, inventing and forcing sanctions, it is their decision and ultimately German responsibility. Even blaming just Merkel is silly - it is the elite consensus among Germans, and the elites are presumably representing what Germans want, especially after a few relatively democratic electoral cycles. I know it hard to look into the mirror and see that it is actually the common people in those countries who are responsible, but it is closer to the truth than looking for reasons elsewhere.

The US horse has been flogged too much (for money and blood) and it is close to expiring in financial fireworks. But if it does what will the cowboy/parasite do, where to find another host and quickly? Will the Arabs manage to unite and wipe off Israel from the map when the host/horse dies?

    I honestly cannot understand the parasite which kills its host, honestly! No use-in-moderation policy at all and they claim that they have the highest IQ.

    Flogged the horse to death for maximal, then rob another horse under gun point. There are more than one parasites competing for host blood.

    I have this image from Western movies of a cowboy trying the cross a desert and he survives but his horse dies in the process. The cowboy is Israel and the horse is the US. The US horse has been flogged too much (for money and blood) and it is close to expiring in financial fireworks. But if it does what will the cowboy/parasite do, where to find another host and quickly? Will the Arabs manage to unite and wipe off Israel from the map when the host/horse dies?

    I honestly cannot understand the parasite which kills its host, honestly! No use-in-moderation policy at all and they claim that they have the highest IQ.

    “Wipe off” not necessary. More likely like this. [2021.]

    It seems to me that US-Western policy is trying to corner Russia economically or is preparing its own population for a war with Russia. The way these people plan is based on an assumption that they are in control – they literally think that they are playing one-way chess. That Russia will not respond or escalate, or act irrationally. If we are lucky, that will be the case. But what if something changes?
     
    This is worth restating. There's a basic arrogance and casual risk taking in US actions that is hard to understand. The American people don't want this trouble. It's why they voted for Trump, and most of them would be pressed to show you Iraq or Syria on a map, much less care about what happens there.

    The arrogance and casual risk taking are probably explained by the fact that the US (its wealth and its people) are really just an expendable tool to further the interests of Israel and the US Jewish elite. The simple fact is that Israel alone doesn't have the power to take on Iran and Russia, and even if it did, it would be far preferable for their captive American giant to do the fighting, and who cares if millions of goyim are killed and the US bankrupted in the process?

    There's no doubt that the US is Israel's Nº1 asset and they plan to use it to the maximum to further Israel's geopolitical ambitions.

    It's not really "killing the host". It's more having absolute power with maximum exploitation. There's plenty more to exploit in the US, and this particular horse is starting to kick over the traces (electing Donald Trump), so it needs a tighter harness and more whip.

    For example, the Russians under Bolshevism had every aspect of their lives controlled. Their economic output was 100% appropriated by the state, and in return they got the minimum of bad food and shelter need to survive (i.e. they were enslaved) + they got the death penalty for any criticism of their Jewish masters (which was the first law that Uliánov (Lenin), Bronstein (Trotsky), Apfelbaum (Zinoviev) and Rosenfeld (Kamenev) passed on gaining absolute power).

    Unfortunately for them (20 years later), they were all murdered/executed by Stalin along with most of the other Bolshevik Jewish leaders (apart from Lenin who died soon after they came to power in 1917) and Stalin appropriated their system developing his own repressive cult of personality.

    Plenty of Americans are supporting the Neo-Bolshevik PC agenda, in the same way that the fashionable pre WWI ethnic Russian intelligencia supported Bolshevik activism (inevitable "social progress", "modern thinking". "progressiveness" etc) although they were in fact surprised to discover that they, (the "useful idiots"), were the first to be liquidated when the Bolsheviks attained absolute power.

    Israel alone doesn’t have the power to take on Iran and Russia

    With Iran I agree, it seems an irrational obsession. But I have not seen much anti-Russia (direct) moves from Israel. If anything, they seem quite chummy. Sure, they were on opposite sides in Syria and Ukraine, but officially there isn’t anything like US or EU hostility against Russia from Israel. They trade, visit, invest, etc…

    It is also hard to believe that Washington, London, Berlin or Brussels are not independent players. They are maybe used somewhat, but all of them have age-old agendas in both Middle East and Eastern Europe. Or France – they have been at the forefront of both the attack on Syria, and have enthusiastically poured oil on the Ukraine conflict. I would hold French accountable, the ‘they were just puppets of Zionists‘ is too easy and it makes countries not responsible for what they do.

    My view is that if Berlin is messing with Ukraine, sending soldiers to the Russian border, inventing and forcing sanctions, it is their decision and ultimately German responsibility. Even blaming just Merkel is silly – it is the elite consensus among Germans, and the elites are presumably representing what Germans want, especially after a few relatively democratic electoral cycles. I know it hard to look into the mirror and see that it is actually the common people in those countries who are responsible, but it is closer to the truth than looking for reasons elsewhere.

    Except that the US media are the faithful voice of militant Zionism. They are hard core Likudniks (i.e. don't even represent most Jews or Israelis) and there's nothing accidental about the intense media focus on "Russian Hacking".

    It's a highly coordinated propaganda move that has nothing to do with the facts, the same as the WMD story that blanketed the US media at the time, or the instant and perfectly formed 9/11 "Arab Terrorist" story that the media were trumpeting almost from the moment the planes hit the towers - no investigation necessary.

    Following this line of thinking, the US population is once again being prepared (set up) - this time for something involving Russia. I don't know what it is, but it's certainly designed to augment US Zionist power, and it's a highly dangerous piece of lunacy that isn't going to benefit the US or Russian public.

    What they then did exactly, and what effect it had, no idea, the 'news' does not tell us.
    However, the USA has a long history over overthrowing governments that did not please the USA.
    So it again to me is the biblical story of the splinter and the beam, if beam is the right word.

    Just a re-hash of the standard “let Putin win in Ukraine” propaganda line dressed up in the pseudo-reasonable language lawyers learn to use. I couldn’t find a single argument in the article that hasn’t been trotted out dozens of times over the last three years, including the assimilation of the Soviet Union to the Russian Federation by the linguistic device of referring to both as “Russia”. In other words, the pro-Putin camp have run out of arguments. On the other side, a Dutch media outlet claims that Dutch intelligence hacked the hackers, so to speak, and was the first to warn the US of Russian interference.

    Those “trotted-out arguments” are as valid and unanswered as ever. Therefore, contrary to your “logic”, no one has in fact “run out of arguments”.

    On the other hand, every time I read any one of your comments here, I come away with the unmovable impression over and over again that you are one of the stupidest, least-knowledgeable, most pig-ignorant commenters ever to scribble kindergarten-level garbage here at TUR.

    I am a US citizen, born and raised here, still living here, so I feel called upon to respond to your question.

    First, I admire your fighting spirit, the spirit of Mama Bear, Mother Russia. But, second, NO, not interested in testing it, not trying to pick a fight with the Russian Bear. The thing is that this country, USA, absorbs all kinds of people from all over the world, so we have among us people who glorify the Nazis of Ukraine, or whatever, but they are not what I would call Americans, not born-and-raised in USA. We have gotten tired of all that, so when people say, like, Jews who say that Israel is threatened by the horrible Arabs, etc., we tend to just say, Oh yeah, sure. That has something to do with why we don't want any more immigrants. If you want to come here to live, then leave all your old allegiances and all your old beefs back there wherever you came from. America is not Israel, not Palestine, not Russia, not Germany, not Africa, not Muslim-land, not even Ireland for that matter. America is the center of the world, America ... God help us.

    I don't know anything about Roth -- who wrote the article and that various commenters have gone out of their way to misconstrue -- but it seems to me that he did not advocate any such thing as antagonizing Russia or the Russian people. He was just taking inventory of the situation, pretty much objectively, which always stirs up all kinds of subjectively opinionated people -- people with chips on their shoulders and not much of any importance to do. I mean, that's why I post here at Unz ... because in my ninth decade in this lifetime, I don't have much to do of any importance (and I like a lot of the content here).

    No human being in all of history has done more damage to USA and the American people .... than Henry Kissinger. He was, in effect, the president for foreign and military policy during the Ford administration and did plenty of damage both before and after. He did enormous harm around the world, as well as tremendous damage to the USA.

    Kissinger was as far from born-and-raised-in-USA as it is possible to be and yet be a US citizen. He was born and raised in Germany and came to the USA in 1938, having been born in Germany in 1923. We will probably never know how high his security clearance went. It was virtually 'the sky's the limit'. So there's no law against foreign-born being given security clearances, but it looks like there sure should be!

    You're twisting my words. What I said in response to someone who was complaining about war after war after war and none of them victories ... what I said is that going back to World War II, that was a war that arguably could be said to be a war that USA won, meaning USA was on the winning side. That in no way indicates that it was won without partnership of Russia (and UK). You don't need to put words in my mouth, I talk enough as it is!

    And anyway, look, Russia (or the USSR) got even with USA when entering the war in Asia for a few days, after we had been fighting many stiff battles in the Pacific throughout all of 1942, 1943 and 1944 and into 1945! Maybe Americans need an education about the European war, but you might need an education into the war in the Pacific. And don't try to claim that there was no Soviet propaganda to the effect that Soviet troops played a much greater role than they really did in Manchuria. I've seen the Soviet propaganda films.

    So let's call it even, and let's go back to those war days and remember that we -- Americans and Russians -- we were allies. And the Allies won the war!

    Of course, it was all somewhat soured by old uncle Ioe.

    Don’t talk to me of Soviet propaganda. Talk better of your fake news agencies and your propaganda. Speak about fool zoo of US imbeciles like bushes, clintons, obama, trump … Actually Soviet propaganda was right abou West, and we got this lesson, we’ll never believe to West and especially US.

    Agree with much of the sentiment and some of the proposals here regarding the need to ratchet down rhetoric, pledge no first strike, and generally try much harder to reduce the risk of even a "small" nuke exchange.

    But giving up our inter-continental ballistic missiles would be foolhardy, even more so if it's done unilaterally. With rivals / potential enemies like China and eventually India, who in time will be able to muster conventional forces and troop contingents far larger than ours, we cannot give up the nuke deterrent.

    And the reference "the TWO nuclear-armed superpowers" is out of date. That would be at least THREE nuke-armed superpowers: China, the USA, and Russia.

    his near hatred for Slovaks ‘dumb farmers’

    Many older Czechs were traumatised by 1968 and pos-1968 ‘normalisation’ in the 70′s (and federation that was also formed in 1968, until then Czechoslovakia was centralised). Czechs thought that Slovaks run the country, the leader Husak was from Bratislava. It is true that Slovakia and especially Bratislava prospered in the 70′s and 80′s, and it was outwardly lot more loyal. Older Czechs took it as ‘betrayal’ and it still lingers even now. Slovaks simply benefitted from socialism a lot more – they literally developed the country from a very backward state. We also grew a lot faster – better demographics. Suddenly there were young Slovak farmer kids everywhere, including Prague. The leadership in Prague in 70′s and 80′s was very visibly a lot of ambitious Slovaks with a few Czech second-rate communists.

    I came from a ‘dumb’ farmers family. But it has never bothered us, we call Prague intellectuals by worse names, but nobody really means it…except maybe bitter emigres, they hated everyone anyway.

    You are a radical hothead, But I still like you!

    "Why won’t Donald John Trump take advantage of this unprecedented opportunity and order an investigation?"

    WT7 is total proof that 9/11 was inside job. There is absolutely no doubt about it at least in my mind.

    But Trump ordering an investigation would mean that he bets everything. Including his own life.
    So why he would do that, particularly because he would loose.
    There are no witnesses. Bush certainly will not talk.
    Those who were enablers at airport will not talk. There will be no witnesses.
    There the trial would come down to arguing two groups of architects and structural engineers.
    No lawyers no judges and no public would or could understand and determine which side is right.

    So there is no chance that Trump would win.

    “But Trump ordering an investigation would mean that he bets everything. Including his own life.
    So why he would do that, particularly because he would loose.”

    I disagree for several reasons. But if you are going to argue that point, I’m going to ask you: Why didn’t the “deep state” already deploy a lone nut against him…even before the election took place? They couldn’t afford to take the risk of letting an ostensibly sincere person anywhere near the levers of power, could they?

    Conversely, if Trump won’t investigate 9/11 due to fear of assassination, why was he not afraid of running for president – on a platform of defiance to the deep state – in the first place? How do you get to have it both ways?

    Also, what good would it do to kill him after he already starts the ball rolling? For example, he could give a press conference and announce to the world that the paper by Hulsey et al. demands a new investigation, and he is ordering the U.S. atty. to begin an immediate investigation, or something like that.

    He’s going to fire up the people by doing the right thing – something that could put an end to the “deep state” once and for all – and they’re going to kill him THEN? By then it would already be too late.

    Finally, the “deep state”, if left to pursue its agenda is going to kill off most of humanity anyway (including Trump and his family), so what does he have to lose? He can take a risk of dying by way of targeted lone nut or he can die by way of nuclear winter with the rest of us, either way he’s dead anyway, so what does he have to lose?

    "Donald John Trump is a liar. Donald John Trump is a fraud. Donald John Trump is a con man. Donald John Trump is a mass-murderer." -- Harold Smith
     
    Yeah, I see what you're after here. You remember, as I do, how the campaign to 'get' Nixon really ramped up when the media began to use Nison's full name -- Richard Milhous Nixon. It might work. But I don't see any point in "getting" Trump. Yes, he is a mass murderer, but that has nothing to do with his middle name.

    Anyway, if we drum Trump out, who do we get? Michael Richard Pence!

    OMG, "Richard"!

    “But I don’t see any point in ‘getting’ Trump.”

    The point is that there are too many credulous fools like Paul Craig Roberts who are defending Donald John Trump, no matter what he does or fails to do.

    According to credulous fools like Roberts, Obama did the evil he did because he was evil; whereas Donald John Trump does the evil that he does merely because he’s “weak”.

    It simply not within the realm of possibility (in Roberts’ universe) that Trump and his handlers set out to deceive us from the beginning.

    And as Sun Tzu would probably tell you if he were here, this kind of “thinking”, i.e., deceiving yourself because you can’t admit that you were fooled, is very dangerous.

    “Yes, he is a mass murderer, but that has nothing to do with his middle name.”

    Did I say otherwise? Sometimes I call him “Orange Clown”; sometimes I call him “Teflon Don the con man”; sometimes I refer to him as the presently seated “2nd beast of Rev 13″; lately I’ve been calling him “Donald John Trump”. Sorry if that offends your gentle sensibilities.

    “Anyway, if we drum Trump out, who do we get? Michael Richard Pence!”

    Donald John Trump needs to be politically neutered before he does any more damage (most likely irrevocable damage, e.g., nuclear war). To that end he needs to be exposed for the demon-possessed moral monster that he is, rather than be portrayed by credulous fools like Roberts as some kind of innocent, well-intentioned, babe-in-the-woods; a nice guy in a bad situation, etc.

    It seems to me that US-Western policy is trying to corner Russia economically or is preparing its own population for a war with Russia. The way these people plan is based on an assumption that they are in control – they literally think that they are playing one-way chess. That Russia will not respond or escalate, or act irrationally. If we are lucky, that will be the case. But what if something changes?
     
    This is worth restating. There's a basic arrogance and casual risk taking in US actions that is hard to understand. The American people don't want this trouble. It's why they voted for Trump, and most of them would be pressed to show you Iraq or Syria on a map, much less care about what happens there.

    The arrogance and casual risk taking are probably explained by the fact that the US (its wealth and its people) are really just an expendable tool to further the interests of Israel and the US Jewish elite. The simple fact is that Israel alone doesn't have the power to take on Iran and Russia, and even if it did, it would be far preferable for their captive American giant to do the fighting, and who cares if millions of goyim are killed and the US bankrupted in the process?

    There's no doubt that the US is Israel's Nº1 asset and they plan to use it to the maximum to further Israel's geopolitical ambitions.

    Maybe the weapon development simply overtook human nature
     
    That's almost certainly the case. I think that the generation(s) that went through this post-WWII to 1989 were more thoughtful about nukes. Or maybe they were just generally smarter.

    I still don't think we will blow it up, not yet. Although statistically at some point in the 21st century one of the 20 or so countries that have nukes will likely use them. It might not be the end of us, but it will make life on earth much more miserable. But the miseries seem to be accumulating anyway, so one more might not make that much of a difference.

    The danger today and in the next 5-10 years is a West-Russia war that would quickly escalate into a limited, or not so limited, use of nukes. The screamers in the Western media are working overtime to make that nightmare more likely. We are relatively lucky that Russia today is run by sober and rational people, there are screamers there too, but they are not in power. That could change.

    It seems to me that US-Western policy is trying to corner Russia economically or is preparing its own population for a war with Russia. The way these people plan is based on an assumption that they are in control - they literally think that they are playing one-way chess. That Russia will not respond or escalate, or act irrationally. If we are lucky, that will be the case. But what if something changes? New leaders in Russia would almost certainly be more nationalistic and less rational. And everybody has a point of no return, what if West manages to cross that line and Russia reacts? We are playing with fire. For example a colour revolution in Belarus might be that red line. Or trying to mop up and exterminate the Donbass Russian population ('separatists'). Or sticking a Nato naval base in Tallin.

    With Iran I agree, it seems an irrational obsession. But I have not seen much anti-Russia (direct) moves from Israel. If anything, they seem quite chummy. Sure, they were on opposite sides in Syria and Ukraine, but officially there isn't anything like US or EU hostility against Russia from Israel. They trade, visit, invest, etc...

    It is also hard to believe that Washington, London, Berlin or Brussels are not independent players. They are maybe used somewhat, but all of them have age-old agendas in both Middle East and Eastern Europe. Or France - they have been at the forefront of both the attack on Syria, and have enthusiastically poured oil on the Ukraine conflict. I would hold French accountable, the 'they were just puppets of Zionists' is too easy and it makes countries not responsible for what they do.

    My view is that if Berlin is messing with Ukraine, sending soldiers to the Russian border, inventing and forcing sanctions, it is their decision and ultimately German responsibility. Even blaming just Merkel is silly - it is the elite consensus among Germans, and the elites are presumably representing what Germans want, especially after a few relatively democratic electoral cycles. I know it hard to look into the mirror and see that it is actually the common people in those countries who are responsible, but it is closer to the truth than looking for reasons elsewhere.

    I have this image from Western movies of a cowboy trying the cross a desert and he survives but his horse dies in the process. The cowboy is Israel and the horse is the US. The US horse has been flogged too much (for money and blood) and it is close to expiring in financial fireworks. But if it does what will the cowboy/parasite do, where to find another host and quickly? Will the Arabs manage to unite and wipe off Israel from the map when the host/horse dies?

    What a maginificent article in a severe competition of great articles in the alternative media.

    Beckow, I do make sure that I never miss your comments on unz.com. I know I am repeating myself, but writing and commenting without at least a minimum dose of humour, no matter how serious the topic is, is a waste of electrons. At the moment the two authors (comments are a form of writing too) of Russian extraction I like the most are Dmitry Orlov and you. You even have too similar a writing style (almost tempted to think that you are one and the same person), here is an example from the latest Orlov:

    ...in spite of his intellectual limitations, Trump was quick to realize that he would be thwarted at every turn. His immigration initiatives could be shut down by a single politicized judge. The military-industrial complex would sabotage his every effort to end money-wasting weapons programs like the F-35 or pointless foreign occupations like Syria and Afghanistan. Members of his own party negated his efforts to end Obamacare before it implodes. Improved relations with Russia were made impossible by endless evidence-free accusations of Russian meddling. The token victory he has scored is in pushing through some sort of tax reform, but this was only possible because all kleptocrats everywhere can always reliably agree that more money for them is a good thing and that the inevitability of national bankruptcy is not a topic worthy of discussion. And so Trump decided to embrace a strategy of maximum offense, using Twitter and other public relations means at his disposal. He is, at this point, a swinging wrecking ball—an orange one...
     
    Therefore, the secret formula of good writing appears to be deep insight combined with colourful metaphors and light humour. My apology for typing this off topic.

    Thanks for the kind words, but I am not in any way connected to Russia or Russians. I am a Slovak, or some days, Czechoslovak. We generally don’t take things too seriously, thus the light humour.

    I more-or-less agree with many of your points about the 2016 election -- but not all of them. About the so-called pro-life agenda, I think that -- while I agree that celibacy is a real and a great alternative and should be part of any rational thinking about life -- still I understand that at present we have a real over-population problem globally. So, I am opposed to any black-and-white thinking about birth control, since it's unrealistic to apply absolutist (black-and-white) ethics to biology, where it's all shades of gray. So if you are a moral absolutist, I am a moral relativist ... and we just have to agree to disagree ... unless we can arrange a duel to the death somewhere. I would argue that overpopulation is such that we ell end up engaged in duels to the death anyway ...

    You're twisting my words. What I said in response to someone who was complaining about war after war after war and none of them victories ... what I said is that going back to World War II, that was a war that arguably could be said to be a war that USA won, meaning USA was on the winning side. That in no way indicates that it was won without partnership of Russia (and UK). You don't need to put words in my mouth, I talk enough as it is!

    And anyway, look, Russia (or the USSR) got even with USA when entering the war in Asia for a few days, after we had been fighting many stiff battles in the Pacific throughout all of 1942, 1943 and 1944 and into 1945! Maybe Americans need an education about the European war, but you might need an education into the war in the Pacific. And don't try to claim that there was no Soviet propaganda to the effect that Soviet troops played a much greater role than they really did in Manchuria. I've seen the Soviet propaganda films.

    So let's call it even, and let's go back to those war days and remember that we -- Americans and Russians -- we were allies. And the Allies won the war!

    Of course, it was all somewhat soured by old uncle Ioe.

    The nuclear collapse of the planet can ONLY be stopped by assertive and insistent action from the citizens; yet no one even knows what is going on!

    Anon from TN
    I am fully aware that the same tricks that were used to start WWI and WWII are now played by the same unscrupulous elites to gain even more money and power by scaring the average Joe with evil Islamists, evil Iranians, evil Assad, evil Russians, evil Chinese, evil Mexicans, evil North Koreans, etc. I am also aware that the official narrative of the US government, parroted by all MSM in the US and its vassals, is total BS. However, this did not start with Trump. In fact, Clinton’s illegal bombing of Serbia and equally illegal tearing Kosovo from it without even a token referendum created precedent for all subsequent illegal US meddling in Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Yemen, Ukraine, Syria, and so on. Many wars were started by Bush Jr and Obama, and not a single new war was started by Trump. His guilt is that he faithfully continues the polices of the war criminals that preceded him in the White House.
    Personally, I see two reasons for hope. One, as I stated, even degenerate elites we have now in the US likely understand that they need to be alive to enjoy their ill-gotten gains. Two, the stories told by current US propaganda (Democracy in Ukraine, Democracy in Syria, Russiagate, Un’s aggressiveness, etc) are so blatantly false that even an average Joe begins to suspect it. That’s the beginning of people turning from dumb munching cattle into citizens.

    “Your memory failed, it us Russia/USSR who put 30 millions of lives to a victory and won. You as always were getting profit of it.” — yurivku

    You’re twisting my words. What I said in response to someone who was complaining about war after war after war and none of them victories … what I said is that going back to World War II, that was a war that arguably could be said to be a war that USA won, meaning USA was on the winning side. That in no way indicates that it was won without partnership of Russia (and UK). You don’t need to put words in my mouth, I talk enough as it is!

    And anyway, look, Russia (or the USSR) got even with USA when entering the war in Asia for a few days, after we had been fighting many stiff battles in the Pacific throughout all of 1942, 1943 and 1944 and into 1945! Maybe Americans need an education about the European war, but you might need an education into the war in the Pacific. And don’t try to claim that there was no Soviet propaganda to the effect that Soviet troops played a much greater role than they really did in Manchuria. I’ve seen the Soviet propaganda films.

    So let’s call it even, and let’s go back to those war days and remember that we — Americans and Russians — we were allies. And the Allies won the war!

    Of course, it was all somewhat soured by old uncle Ioe.

Actually Soviet propaganda was right abou West, and we got this lesson, we'll never believe to West and especially US. All Us can win it's bomb peasful countries like Serbia, and you can be sure we'll never forget and never forgive it. You also can destroy peasfull cities with nuklear bombs like you did in Japan.

    “If we Americans would wake up and start voting against all those in Congress who enact such abominations as the War Powers Act — that’s most but not all members of Congress — we would have none of these undeclared anti-constitutional and losing wars.” [Grandpa Charlie]

    That’s one theory, I suppose. It is, however, based upon the belief that elections are decided by voting. That is a theory in itself, one which looks more dubious as I get older. It seems much more likely to me that election outcomes are predetermined and that vote totals are fabricated to fit the desired result.

    When there are only two parties, and those two parties seem always to be on the same page of every issue, it’s easy for me to assume that the leadership of those parties are meeting to discuss election outcomes in advance of the voting. Having the electoral circus in place to give the victims of government the illusion that they are choosing the people who rob them and enslave them works as well as putting a little steering wheel on a baby’s car seat.

    Yes, these are all theories, but my theory which centers around phenomena of the War Powers Act isn't based on belief that elections are decided by voting. I presume that you are getting at the insight that was famously expressed by Stalin when he said he cared not at all how the people voted, what Stalin wanted to know was who counted the votes. That's pretty obvious and, actually, there's been lots of research into that in this country, especially concerning computer tallying. But when I think about voting -- if I vote or when I vote or if I don't vote --I want to know if voting can or does have any effect at all. My answer to that question isn't categorical and it varies by both time and place. Generally, if I vote or if I don't vote, it isn't to advance any illusion about government here in USA: it may have something to do with that kind of thing, or it may not. ( think of elections as just one sub-component in an enormously complex system.) The main difference between me and you is that I haven't made up my mind and formed a prejudice (a "pre-judgment") about voting. Meanwhile, voting costs me essentially nothing, so ...

    But I like your analogy of the baby in the driver's seat. Very clever.

    BTW: I do not agree that the leaders of the two major parties secretly meet to discuss issues or decide much of anything. I think there's a lot of commo going on, and it all takes place through a very complex kind of 'matrix', for want of a better term (at least right at this moment). Also, I don't think the electoral circus occurs because the powers that be "order" it to continue so as to foster a delusional system among the people. Yes, they do want to promote some kind of delusional system, but I think that the PTB are just as much enthralled by the, or a related, delusional system as are we the masses. I think social reality is much more fluid than you seem to think, and I don't give the arrogant rich classes credit for having anywheres near the intelligence and insight that you (and they) do. Nor do I suppose that the rich are all arrogant or all united in any delusional or other belief system -- although many or most of them probably are.

    In general, I have recently become convinced by the article by C. J. Hopkins, titled "The War on Dissent" and published currently here at Unz. I refer you to that article if you want to know how I am thinking about politics these days.

    “I don’t give the arrogant rich classes credit for having anywheres near the intelligence and insight that you (and they) do. ”

    Nice try at diversion, Charlie, but I never said any such thing. The current government obviously consists of two barely distinguishable parties and these two parties have absolute control of the electoral process. These two parties have automatic ballot access while any upstart party has to expend resources on a large scale in order to gain ballot access every time they enter candidates.

    The two parties also control the tallying of votes and the reporting of results. Look at what was done with the electoral records of the recent special election for US Senate in Alabama.

    https://gizmodo.com/alabama-supreme-court-okays-destruction-of-digital-voti-1821223685

    I don’t give the people who have control over the process any credit for intelligence or insight. They obviously have neither to any significant degree. What they have is control over a system they inherited. I’m of the opinion that the desire to control other people is evil, and evil is always vapid, and even stupid in many ways. Look at the politicians who seem to have lifetime positions in government. None are really intelligent at all, though they may exhibit a certain low, animal cunning.

    Oh come now grandpa show me where Trump is any different than Bush or Obama was,singing the same tune on a different day,more weapons for the Ukraine, who can't even pay their debts,more weapons for the terrorist in Syria,trying to steal part of Syria for yet another outpost of the empire,another $1.7 trillion added to the debt while he mouth's I have a plan, another $1.7 trillion for infranstucture while the federal debt heads for the moon,a hugh tax cut for himself and the 1% he represents.Nope sorry charlie but just another day in fascist America while people bleat "he was the lessor of the two evils" but the question remains is just why in hell you voted for evil, for you did have the choice of staying home saying I want no part of evil,for you see America died in 1963 in a place called Dallas,Tex........

    bluedog,

    Trump administration is different from Obama only in that it cut by 50% the number of immigrants who entered USA, compared with the last year of Obama. Otherwise it was all bait and switch, and I never said anything other than that, not since Trump came into office and started his sell-out of his campaign promises. Plus, it was worth something, in terms of future possibilities, to see Hillary tossed out. Plus, along with destroying the Democrats’ multiculturalism and identity politics, Bush also way back in the Republican debates gave the lie to the media neocon-ziocon myth that there was any basis to the idea that the Bush family has any popular support in America whatsoever … that being when he dissed Jeb like an old throw-away rag.

    But I agree with you that “America died in 1963 in a place called Dallas,Tex…”

    You are a radical hothead, But I still like you!

    "Why won’t Donald John Trump take advantage of this unprecedented opportunity and order an investigation?"

    WT7 is total proof that 9/11 was inside job. There is absolutely no doubt about it at least in my mind.

    But Trump ordering an investigation would mean that he bets everything. Including his own life.
    So why he would do that, particularly because he would loose.
    There are no witnesses. Bush certainly will not talk.
    Those who were enablers at airport will not talk. There will be no witnesses.
    There the trial would come down to arguing two groups of architects and structural engineers.
    No lawyers no judges and no public would or could understand and determine which side is right.

    So there is no chance that Trump would win.

    Ilyana,

    I agree that a real investigation into the events of 9/11 is essential to any progress to be made politically in this country. But Trump is an insider in the world of big-money Manhattan real estate, and he surely has much to lose by getting involved in such a thing. The last time we had a mojor party candidate with any integrity at all might have been, possibly, Gore in 2000. He, after all, is a scion of an old-money aristocratic family from the South. That’s where such a candidate would have to come from, but of course, what we see is identity politics plus neocon-ziocon-controlled mass media employed to destroy the last vestige of the aristocratic tradition in the South — precisely because of that threat to Bushist Republican power. Early in the 2016 primaries, we saw our last hope disappear when the DNC with Hillary managed the candidates debate and were unbelievably rude in their mistreatment of former Senator Jim Webb, a Democrat who had been Secretary of the Navy under Reagan, and a decorated Vietnam War hero. I mean they went out of their way to destroy Webb’s image and chances. Only Bernie Sanders treated Webb respectfully. And Webb should have been okay respecting diversity and inclusion, considering that his second wife is Vietnamese. In the world in which I grew up, Webb should have had an unstoppable, a perfect resume … but the Democratic Party itself, they torpedoed Webb’s candidacy. Go ahead, ask me how I felt when Hillary lost to Trump … when the people threw her into the sh*tter, I wished I could have flushed it. And I am not even a Southerner, I’m a Yankee, born and bred.
