Religion Problem

There is nothing wrong with basic teachings of any respectable religion with say more than 100M followers.  The issue is when stupid uninformed people allow mostly men with small penises and thrust for power lead them.  I say we ban religious leaders, preachers, mullahs, rabbis,....etc from ever coming up front and telling people what the fucking book or revelation or verse means to the fucking flock.  Like bill of rights we need only to share the basics tenants of religion since after all majority want to believe there is life after death and their existence somehow is divine.....I am ok with that idea since we have what we have today October 29, 2014!!!! OBW that goes for the fucking pope and ayatollahs.

Al Qaida - Al ISIS - Al Revenge -

Now that nut case Bush and his neocon handlers made a mess of the Middle East the only way to help Arabs clean house and get to some thing similar to civil society is to fucking get red of the fat unelected Sunni rulers of Saudi Arabia, Qatar, UAE, Kuwait, Bahrain, Jordan, and Egypt.  All Paris and Geneva meetings will do would be to produce more mayhem. These fat men have financed and armed crazy Wahhabis with US weapons that are now running around in Syria and Iraq but they are nothing but symptoms.  The causes are these Sunni dictators, 70 years of Palestinian occupation, 60 years of meddling by west as part of cold war games, and oil grab.  These failed states will continue to produce violent people because that is all they know with more focus on the masters (west).  

You know when a nation is not wanted when their leader has to visit her troops in a "surprised" visit, aka Obama like Bush before him visiting troops to keep their moral high.  I like to see Obama announce a month before his date and location of visits to Iraq or Afghanistan and I will stop bitching.

Ukraine - Russia vs Israel - Palestinians

What if Arabs decided that security of Palestinians in the occupied lands need to be protected.  I think the apartheid regime in Israel is getting the message!  For the first time in over 70 years of occupation a high ranking US official (John Kerry) sounded the warning alarm.  Rest assured he didn't so it to help the Palestinian, they don't care about people, he did it because Israel can no longer continue with the occupation without major negative impact to her.  One state solution will eliminate Israel as a stupid religious state!!  The two state solution will buy Israel more time but not that much more.  At the end the idea of religious state needs to be wiped from the planet.  The state is and will be gathering of people to help protect, promote good life and enjoyment for all.

Still No Palestinian STATE

Isreal's illigal and immoral occupation of Palestine is slipping through the world attention again.  The Syrian tragedy has been partly made to keep this story from being told again.  Developed world by delaying this issue will pay a more substantial price in the futuer.  I find this total lack of will and arragant respond to the call by Palestinans sickening. 

Nuclear Bomb VS Assault Rifles

It appears small nuclear club members will continue to try, kill, primitively torcher, drone, render like cattle,....etc. to keep the monopoly of the "ultimate" weapon among other privileges while in their respective houses act like holier than pope with the mantra to ban those unnecessary semi-automatic weapons.  Somehow the vocabulary of gun control doesn't fit the militarism of the west.  Unless of course they are only moral and human to their respective peoples.  Their military industrial complex constantly whining about lack of funding for better more effective killing machines to defend "FREEDOM" while they are more than happy to disarm everyone.

Funny aint it!!!

Middle of (Changing) East

We have come a long way since pre 9/11 era, the world picture has changed.  The old patterns are not indicative of the future trends in sociopolitical discourse.  In a way the world is getting closer and acting as one unit more and more.  With prosperity of on member state directly benefiting the others.  Much like the social-capitalist system operating in US.  If by in large most people are doing well then system is doing well.

This is a good sign compared to the pre 9/11 colonialist style of domination and manipulation applied by powerful few states to control resources for survival and most recently to gorge on almost free supply of goods from those uninformed savages.

As more and more nations turn the corner on civil society principles with accountability for their leaders (aka servants) they will demand fair price and value for their goods and services.

Then truly the world nations will in lots of ways will become one..........until then lets kick ass of whats left of the dictators and non represented figureheads.

Not again?

We simply can not afford to forget Bush era violations and terrorising way of responding to 9/11.  All is not good in Iraq and if we are not true to our ideals and agree that "sometimes shit happends" to pretect our intersts, then we are in for even bigger tragedy than 9/11.  I see the west has become complaicent again and reverting back to the old colonial ways of dealing with international issues.  The Isreal will get us in trouble again, still no Plestanian state.  We are accepting rash of new semi dictators that are friendly to our oil needs with slogan "Let the freedom ring only in select places".

Here is an idea to help control domination and total disregard to human life by rich nations with well equipped armed forces and even those rouge nations:

In any conflict if an organized army kills a civilian it will have to compensate the victim's family based on value of an average US life. For example if US a soldier kills an Afghan, the family will receive how US courts calculates loss of average US citizen's life plus hardship. That mount can be an average yearly cases in the civil courts.

Imagine if that was the case perhaps Bush and rest of criminals would have had second thought about invading a country based on lies and fabricated evidence.

Afghan Massacre - Part Who Knows

I find it ironic that when WE WITH SUPERIOR FIRE POWER commit atrocities and killing of innocent people the story turns (at least in the home country and I am sure also in the surrogate nations) to a personal human one with kids, no job, stress, losing comrades in arms, PTSD,........ The focus is on how tough the young man or men had it with multiple deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan. The in depth coverage of personal life history of the young man makes you to at one point feel sorry for him and ask that he be treated for mental health problems. He is behind on his mortgage payments and disturbed by violence of the war, dam it he needs help. In about four weeks the media will even stop referring to the killing of 16 women, children, and men as massacre. The story will take the savagery of the massacre and spins it to well patterned human tragedy with old high school buddy, neighbor, mom, wife, grade school teacher, pastor,.......

I wonder if few of the chicken shit political leaders and media moguls would have taken the same approach with the sick minded 19 men (and few other cohorts) that boarded the planes on September, 11 2001. Instead the story turned into much bigger (made up of course) enemy namely "Extremest Islam-o-fascists" portrayed as well organized huge group with standing army and mass support in Middle East and Africa. Then it was not about how these young men with mental health issues were driven to do such a inhuman act. Perhaps if we had reacted the same way we are reacting to this soldier killing 16 Afghan people point blank huddled in their mud homes world would have been in a better place.

The legacy of the 9/11 will haunt us for a long time.

UN, US, USSR, China, and EU will have to bring regime change to Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait, UAE, Egypt (yes not this charade), and Algeria. Its time to make a stand for "real" human rights values without fear of oil supply or strategic (aka don't give a shit for those sand dwellers) plan.

Another reminder about Israel -- This nation is not invented!! It was CREATED as a respond to European guilt for what they did to hard working Jewish people until after WWII. It existence in current form is unnatural and can not be sustained. It has survived by direct and indirect life support from US and Europe. On its own will never survive even with nuclear weapon . The other unfortunate aspect of the Israel story is that it's social and political structure only functions based on its struggle for survival which means it will be unable to renounce violence and enjoy piece full existence. Over 70 years of conflict has evolved its people to view war and arm struggle as the only way of life. Same thing had happened to Palestinians which will continue to fuel conflict and hatred. The best way to deal with this mess is to make Israel headquarter of the united nations and allow Jews and Palestinians to become UN citizens.

OK, how long will US occupy nations and wonder why they are not fixed! Afghanistan is unravelling and lets not even talk about Iraq. Meanwhile some good things are happening in rest of the Arab world. Egypt, Tunisia, Bahrain, and Yemen are good examples of the changes the area will see in the next 5 to 10 years. Other one man states like Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Jordan and UAE will be next. Syria will most likely be a while before brakes up since west is both for it and not for it. Once the dust settles on these failed puppet states slate will be cleaned for perhaps genuine beginnings of a civil societies to take holed. Even then it will be a long hard road to see sustainable forward development in the area. The "outside factor" like thirst for OIL and geopolitical chess games by major powers is another reason why this transition will be very messy. Unfortunately more US and EU citizen will most likely die in the process, in fact the loss of life is already factored in the equation by WEST policy managers. The other factor for the next decade will be which of these nations will have nuclear breakout. With Iran on the verge and Israel (son of US) already a club member things are gone a get HOT........................

Always check NEWS facts

Remember those with strategic agenda, plan or per planned objective are working toward achieving hire individual and collective goals. That could be nations, focus groups, NGOs, block of nations,...etc. The Internet generation has huge advantage and ability to vet news and information that is being presented even by so called "trusted" news sources. Western people in general are more inclined to do that than rest of the world. So when you read and hear news like Gulf of Tonkin incident type be weary...... we can't afford to find out 30 years later that in fact it didn't happened and was basically misinformation that help proper US forces to land in Vietnam because powers to be had already decided so. That happened with Iraq and you know the outcome..............

Corporate greed, personal greed, unreal expectation, unmitigated consumption, and narcissistic existence will ruin the west and rest of the world by proxy unless we the people wake up and begin the hard work of reconfiguring the political, economical and social system. The old format does not work, its time to reprogram!!! The three legs will have to be based on same principles and universal laws for it to work.

Do We Ever Learn From The Past?

Here we go again bunch of Republicans lined up to take over, they don't believe in science, no memory of free willy deficit spending of the two Bushes, one Reagan and Billy era that has piled on over $14 Trillion of dept for our children to deal with. The media whores are doing it again like they have done every 4 years since the peanut farmer Carter. Making it fun and exciting to debate whether global worming is biblical or how we are fucking ourselves. Can we take it from medicare, social security or tax the rich. They in the past thirty or so years talked about "JOBS" to come our nerves. The fucking real story with this sick economy is that there is no sustainable "JOB" to be had. Its like starting the physical therapy before fixing the fucking broken leg! The basic of the jobs are founded on barrowing from our future and not building on our present needs. You DO NOT engineer jobs!!

You can just create jobs without fixing the political, social and economical equation. Lets be clear this fucking mess we have is also not about some stupid corporations fight with people. The system is sick which has created the unreal expectation that we can be 5% of the world and continue to use over 20% of the world's resources.

I fucking give up!

Nation of Palestine

Lets stop this madness and let have Palestinians be recognized as a nation. US, EU and Russia are irrelevant as to aspiration of a people that have been lied to and manipulated for over 60 years. No more negotiations or discussions, the apartheid regime of Israel needs to either accept the basic human and nationalistic presents of Palestinians or be like Afrikaners. Its time to give Israel ultimatum to either leave the occupied Palestinian land or be sanctioned by UN members.

A viable Palestinian nation will top the Arab spring and enhance national security of US and Europeans nations. Iraq and Afghanistan shenanigans (aka revenge killings and oil rush) of Bush era can end, even though the unending pain of those (Afghans, Arabs, NATO, and Americans) that have been killed or injured will never end.

ARAB Spring - DOW Fall - OIL Winter - IMPERIAL Summer,

The problem is that we the people have been stupefied so much that nothing the elected have done since Reagan era is registering with us as fatally flawed. We borrowed and borrowed, continued with charging our lives with our national credit card. We were then sold on the notion that free market will save us all. Then we find free market is manipulated to protect "ICONS' of the economy, not so free market was it. The political/economical system now is essentially "Managed Market Economy" which means it will eventually fail like Communism if we continue living the "DREAM". It's time to demand for true market economy with basic "human rights" principles. Cut off the middleman and unwarranted profiteers. Let true free market be the driver. No EXCEPTIONS, no LOOPHOLES, no COMPLICATED TAX CODE, no CARBON EXCHANGE,......... Have clear laws that protects our global lives, health, planet, and human rights. That is the only role the government should have. Let right, left, ideals, and religion compete for audience without money behind them.

Arab Revival or Managed Project?

It is perhaps the organic Arab revival to overcome Colonial and Cold War manipulation along with people getting to the point now to demand prosperity and accountability from their leaders that is in works. Bur one thing s clear and that is there are lots of other external players of various size and means that are injecting themselves in the process. West, China, and Russia are all out there seeking an orderly (defined differently in various capitals) transition that does not disrupt OIL this extremely addictive product. The Israel factor in this environment is irrelevant and has no baring on the outcome. That is how it should be when you talk about a movement involving 500M people vs 6M Israelites.

It is clear that those players care less about Arabs or North African people and care more about their own survival and prosperity. We have seen how they have used human rights, freedom, and rule of law to further their objectives, even if at times the call is Genuine. Just few years ago they were calling the same people (by all account majority of the Arabs) Muslin extremists, terrorists, and violent people. The people of that region will be tossed around in the prevailing wind until they get their sails in order.

The movement will in my opinion pass the test and with lots of up and downs bring civil society based on Arab culture to the forefront. They will then be demanding a fair and equitable place at the global table. Until then we will witness pain, injustice, interference, manipulation, out right lies and deception locally and externally. The news media will be fed crap to report. Aljazira will try to Americanize the movement but there are so many sources of news that Arabs will quickly learn how to navigate through psych-ops, half baked news and real news. At the end they can quickly see if the change is producing results, that is "will they better off then or not". Same thing that actor from Hollywood asked Americans back in 1979 and became president.

US Budget Drama Its unbearable to see what US political system has de-evolved to. The fight over the budget on about $36B even though abortion and clean water act were involved when country is in such a deep doo doo makes rational reasonable people puke. But I guess we are running out of those people. The oil based economy, fiscal whoring, total waste of resources, drunkenness with consumption and lack of moral compass are the source of the issues but meanwhile politicians conduct politics like its 1970's. I don't think they realize cold war has ended and business as usual is no more. Iraq is still occupied - no war crimes trials yet Afghanistan is a mess with no end in sight Several hindered PEOPLE are illegally kept in Guantanamo Our friendly ARAB dictators are nice and keep buying our arms Israel continues to occupy Palestine Mexico is a mess South America is not America! Canadians don't like us
