Liberty and Rights

To be fair, it is time to show the critiques of the current White House. The expression of the following facts is not to personal slander the brother, but the President has to be made known of some errors in order for the country to achieve better achievements. In our time, all of us haven't strongly fought for economic justice, peace, and ending the prison state not just the current administration. Now, the White House has not successfully addressed in a radical way on how to reduce the unemployment rate in America, especially in the black community. He didn't raise the minimum wage to $9.50 an hour almost as soon as he made it. We do not see a massive job creation program to address these bad economic conditions in America. We need a living wage and the real assistance to the oppressed in the world. We have to end the War on Drugs completely, because the violation of human civil liberties and the ruination of the lives of men and women too have been the result of the decades long War on Drugs. The White House has advanced numerous reactionary economic policies in America. For example, President Barack Obama has advanced Wall Street bailouts and he allowed other austerity plans too. The NSA is reading millions of emails in the world and the White House advances this policy with our taxpayer dollars. On some foreign policy matters, the administration acts as a continuation of the previous Bush administration. For example, the President presides over Africom and other militarization policies in Africa. Libya has been attacked by US backed NATO forces that caused many civilian deaths and allowing a puppet regime to take over Libyan territory. Many black innocent Libyans have been raped, terrorized, assaulted, murdered, and even lynched by brutes or terrorists. Even innocent Syrian Christians and Shias have been killed by U.S. backed terrorist rebels in Syria. The unjust drone attacks in the Middle East and Africa is ever known today. The drone attacks occur now in Pakistan, Yemen, Somalia, and across the African continent. Innocent men, women, and children have been killed via the drone attacks without due process or international law consideration. There are still some intelligence agencies that may continue the torture programs. There has been an expansion of the assassination program that has killed American citizens without due process of law in this administration. For example, U.S. citizen Anwar al-Awlaki was killed without a trial by jury including his teenage son (who was innocent). There has been the advancement of policies that circumvent not only constitutional rights, but human rights or international via the authorization indefinite military detention of human beings (potentially of U.S. citizens under certain circumstances). Isn't ironic that the man that condemned the Bush's invasion of Iraq (and his violations of human rights) is now a prosecutor of imperialist wars (and he is using drone missiles and other tactics as a means to carry out this agenda). In foreign policy, the elevation of Obama’s administrator of drone attacks, John Brennan—a man who under Bush publicly defended torture—to the position of CIA director signals an expansion of military aggression and extrajudicial killings. This reality means means that we still witness further attacks on democratic rights.




California Senator Diane Feinstein wants radically more gun control legislation to be passed in America. She doesn't just want an assault weapons ban, but more pistols and shotguns to be banned as well. The state should exist to serve humanity, but I never agreed with the notion that the state should have a monopoly of the force of arms. Human beings have the right to have the private ownership of arms. Also, human beings from across the political spectrum love gun rights not just the Republicans. I don't believe that the government should have some firearms monopoly. Feinstein's bill doesn't talk about the War on Drugs, poverty, or other methods that can radically decrease gun violence. The bill talks about criminalizing tons of not only semi-automatic rifles, but shotguns, and handguns. It would criminalize citizens buying ammo magazines that hold more than 10 rounds even while the federal government via the DHS can purchase ammo magazine of nearly unlimited capacity. The government can never enforce these laws without using guns to do so ironically enough. Massive gun prohibition hasn't work just like drug prohibition hasn't worked either. We know about the massive failure of marijuana prohibition and alcohol prohibition either. If innocent human beings lack certain guns, only criminals will have them since a criminal by definition respects no law or dictate. In real life, Illinois citizens are still being arrested for recording police officers despite a 7th Circuit Court of Appeals ruling last year that blocked the enforcement of the law on the grounds that it was unconstitutional. So, the skeptics can't tell me that tyrannical policies aren't here in America. Now, we have the aftermath of the Sandy Hook massacre. Feinstein used a multiple gun display as a means to advocate her goal and this may broke DC's gun law ironically. “The purpose is to dry up the supply of these weapons over time,” Feinstein said. “Therefore, there is no sunset on this bill.” She made it plan about her goals. The bill would make it a misdemeanor for any state or federal official to “enforce or attempt to enforce any acts, laws, executive orders, agency orders, rules or regulations of any kind whatsoever of the United States government relating to confiscating any firearm, banning any firearm, limiting the size of a magazine for any firearm, imposing any limit on the ammunition that may be purchased for any firearm, taxing any firearm or ammunition therefore, or requiring the registration of any firearm or ammunition therefore.” It is a known fact that better socioeconomic conditions with more guns in the hands of law abiding citizens equals to less crime. This has been shown in Switzerland, New Hampshire, Virginia, Wyoming, Alaska, and throughout the Earth. Now, Australia is banning bolt action guns. These anti-gun liars said that this was about semi-automatic weapons, but now they want to ban certain handguns from law abiding citizens. Studies document how the assault weapons have little to no effect to overall gun crime in America. After the ban was gone in 2004, gun violent crime continued to decline. NY Governor's new SAFE Act according to critics like Dr. Paul Appelbaum at Columbia University may turn New York into a psychiatric police state. A better way to handle gun crime is to improve our socioeconomic conditions, to create jobs and real opportunities for folks, to fight poverty, and to end the War on Drugs. We ought to ban any criminal or those with serious mental illness issues (via due process from owning a gun), we can target criminals who are using guns with strong enforcement, we ought to fight the underground, illegal sales of guns, we need to address mental health reforms, and there is nothing wrong with actions that fight violent gangs. There should be more of building of community development programs, we need to target gun trafficking, and we need to execute other reasonable policies that can deter gun violence. Yet, law abiding citizens should not have their right to bear arms violated at all. We also need to be inspired to advance a culture of tolerance and respect for each other, because many crimes come about as a result of hurt, pain, and suffering. There is no shame in loving our neighbor as ourselves. Another great idea is to allow doors in schools to have a ballistic door with magnetic locks as a means for shooters to not have entry into a lot of rooms in schools. There should be a campaign to advocate firearm safety. The solution has to be comprehensive.




More information is coming out about Mali. France recently invaded Mali with over 2,000 troops from the Foreign Legion in January of 2013. France has also sent out dispatched Special Forces troops to neighboring Niger to secure uranium mines that are run by the France state owned nuclear power company Areva. Le Point reported that the French Defense Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian had quickly agreed earlier this week to a major innovation or ordering the Special Forces Command to send troops to protect the Areva uranium production sites in Imouraren and 80 kilometers away in Arlit. The magazine said that this is the first time ever use of French commandos to directly defend the assets of a corporation. The magazine discussed information about how the French government officials have taken the decision after the botched attempt to rescue the French hostage named Denis Allex in Somalia. There was the recent bloody hostage taking incident and siege at the Armenas gas facility in Algeria where over 80 human beings were killed. Those two events “in addition to launching the ‘Serval’ operation in Mali have significantly increased risk factors for French installations, including industry and mining in the region,” Le Point reported. When the French commandos are sent to the uranium mines in Niger, it just the documents the overriding economic and geo-strategic motives behind the French military intervention in Mali. These Euro imperialists use the guise of fighting against Islamist "terrorists" as an excuse to control resources in their former African colonies, which are actual nations today. Official spokesmen at both Areva and the French Defense Ministry refused to discuss the new military deployment citing security concerns. Officials from Niger deny any knowledge of the dispatch of the Special Forces commandos. “It’s true that the terrorist threat has increased today, but as far as I know there is no such agreement in place at the moment,” one official told Reuters. One Niger army officer told the new agency that there were security arrangements in place that had been agreed to with France and imposed after the September 2010 kidnapping of 7 employees of Areva and one of its contractors in the northern Nigerien town of Arlit. “We also have counter-terrorism units in the Agadez region,” said the officer. “For now, I don’t know of a decision by the Nigerien government to allow French Special Forces to base themselves in the north.” Niger was colonized by the France until Niger created its own independence in 1960. The yellow cake from Niger's uranium ore have been used to create France's nuclear bombs and fuel for its nuclear reactors (that account for over 75 percent of the country's electricity). Niger now is a very poor nation. Tuareg militias want a more fair distribution of uranium revenues in Niger. They are a minority ethnic group in Niger. There has been radiation contamination of areas in Areva. The French backed Malian army has been accused of torturing and executing civilians like many Tuareg human beings. Niger has given exploration permits to Chinese and Indian firms. There are Al Qaeda related factions in Mali and they came from the Soviet-Afghan war back in the 1970's. The CIA funded these radicals from that time period to the modern era.

There has been the issue of drug treatment programs. On many times, these programs haven't been funded adequately. Some individuals who seek help lack access to treatment; they experience insurance barriers, have months of long waits, or participate in programs that don't meet their needs. Some can't even have treatments because of an arrest or a criminal conviction. Almost 40% of people who wanted drug or alcohol treatment reported that they are unable to obtain it, because they had no health coverage and could not afford it. There ought to be an expansion of drug treatment programs as a means to handle the end of the War on Drugs. It should be focused in handling health, safety, and improving quality of life among human beings. Others have advocated heroin assisted treatment, which has been documented to work abroad, but it is still not available in the United States. If more funds were sent to treatment and other health approaches to drug use, then you can save a whole lot of taxpayers’ dollars. The effectiveness of reducing drug addiction and likeminded issues ought to discovered on the overdose deaths, amounts of drug addicted human beings, and the transmission of diseases like HIV/AIDS and hepatitis C. Drug policies ought to be made and judged on the ability to help society, to improve the environment, to build up families, to restore civil liberties, and the elimination of racial disparities in the judicial system. The New Jersey Senate Health Committee unanimously passed a new bill that will expand access to the lifesaving overdose antidote called naloxone. The interesting thing about this development is that this policy witnesses a widespread bipartisan support. Now, the bill comes into the full Senate in the state of New Jersey. Naloxone is a prescription medication that blocks and reverses the effects of opioid drugs like heroin and Oxytocin. Even now, it is normal medical practice for emergency personnel to administer when summoned to the scene of an overdose. Naloxone is only in prescription, so overdose victims regardless lack access to it. S2082 seeks to expand access by providing protection from civil and criminal liability to medical professionals who prescribe the drug and laypeople who administer it. Overdose deaths are a serious issue in New Jersey. This is a great policy since it can prevent human overdose all over the state of New Jersey. Senator Joseph Vitale, the sponsor of the bill in the Senate, says "Drug overdose continues to be the leading cause of accidental death in New Jersey. Each year it surpasses the number of deaths caused by automobile accidents and guns. Expanding access to naloxone will allow this medication to reach its full public health potential and will be an important part of New Jersey's comprehensive efforts to address drug abuse." Patty DiRenzo of Blackwood lost her son, Salvatore, to an overdose when he was 26 years old. “Sal was a beautiful soul who unfortunately struggled with addiction. If the people he was using with on the night he died had access to naloxone, he might still be alive today. Instead, my son was left alone to die. It’s extremely important to have policies like this one in place, so that other families are spared the grief that mine has endured.” The Opioid Antidote and Overdose Prevention Act has tons of support from a wide spectrum of public health organizations, treatment providers, and advocacy groups like the National Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependence—NJ, the New Jersey State Nurses Association, the National Association of Social Workers—New Jersey, Integrity House, the Lutheran Office of Governmental Ministry, Hyacinth AIDS Foundation, etc.



WWII has many ironies. IG Farben was the military industrial complex of the Third Reich. Numerous IG Farben facilities back then were bombed by the Allied forces. This chemical corporation produced a pesticide called Zyklon B that was used in concentration camps. The Zyklon B pesticide used in the gas chambers at Auschwitz-Birkeanu concentration camp inside of occupied Poland. IG Farben was created 2 years after the German Hyperinflation of 1923 and the establishment of the Dawes Plan. It was created in 1925. Back in April 12, 1945, General George S. Patton and General Dwight D. Eisenhower, and the U.S. Army looked at a pile of corpses inside of the Ohrdruf concentration camp in Goth, Germany. Many of the Jewish folks and other nationalities like the Germans, Pols, French, Hungarians, Russians, Dutch, etc. died in various concentration camps at the hands of the IG Farben chemical cartel. They were also killed with help from the German central bank called Reichsbank, the National Socialist German Workers' Party, and the Gestapo-Schutstaffel death squads. We know that the Reichsbank was the Central bank of the Third Reich. It was the German central bank from 1876 to 1945. Back in 1934, Hjalmar Schacht was the President of the Reichsbank, Herr Plessing was a famous figure, Dr. Emil Puhl was the Vice President of the Reichsbank, and Herr von Wedel was a famous figure in that time period. Hitler was a famous ally of Schacht for years in the 1930's. In April of 1945, gold bars, jewels, and stolen foreign currency were gone form the Reichsbank vaults in Germany. The worth was estimated from $3.34 billion. Many of the corporate elite that aided the Third World went off scot-free from the Nuremberg trials. The International banks from Thomas W. Lamont to Montagu C. Norman influenced German society, economy, and politics before, during, and after World War II. Just look at the German reparations history and the reconstruction plans. The Nazis worked internationally in Asia, and other places. Back in October of 1937, Hermann Goering was pictured riding in a carriage with British diplomat Lord Halifax. Nazi German army officers celebrated a toast with a group of Imperial Japanese army officers during World War II. The IG Farben Building in Frankfurt am Main after WWII changed. It served as the U.S. Army Fifth Corps and an outpost for the CIA during the Cold War. John McCloy used the placed as a headquarters for then occupied Germany. During WWII, IG Farben was the largest chemical manufacturing enterprise in the globe. It has a huge amount of economic power and political influence in the Nazi state. Wall Street money financially backed IG Farben. IG Farben was a merger of already 6 giant German chemical companies with the names of Badische, Anilin, Bayer, Agfar, Hoeschst, Wiler ter Meer, and Griesheim Elektron. IG Farben is short for Internationale Gesellschaft Farbenindustrie. Later, Hermann Schmitz (who helped to organize IG Farben) would be on trial for war crimes at Nuremberg. Other IG Farben directors were put on trial, but not the American directors of I.G. at all. With Wall Street capital, IG Farben wouldn't have grown in the first place. Hitler would have a chance to not be a dictator at Germany and WWII could have ceased to exist. Paul Warburg was on the board of directors of IG Farben's U.S. subsidiary. Other leaders include Carl Bosch, Fritz ter Meer, Kurt Oppenheim, and George von Schnitzler. Carl Krauch was the Nazi plenipotentiary for chemical production and he listened to his sentencing verdict at the Nuremberg trials.
