Thatcher (Who was she?)




 

 

The legacy of Margaret Thatcher is ever known now. She was similar to Ronald Reagan in numerous ways. Her political career has been long and controversial. She was the first Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. Her domestic and foreign policies were controversial and are debated to this day. She was not the worst politician in history, but the mainstream media is going too far in genuflecting her. Even the war criminal Henry Kissinger loved her. The truth is that Margaret Thatcher spoke about strength, but did not execute strength in favor of the interests of the workers and the downtrodden. The establishment used her as a convenient excuse to advance not only attacks on the social safety net, but to advance slick imperialism under the guise of jingoistic patriotism. How she treated the mining community will not be forgotten. She condemned Irish Republican hunger strikers to death. The British fought in the Falkland war wherefore 907 Argentine and British military personnel were killed. The war was about imperialism and the British possessed the Malvinas. She came into office in May of 1979. The world economy was in a great recession during the time. There was a decline in the rate of profit on the capital as compared to the boom years of the 1950's and the 1960's. The economic boom saw the growth of the British workers movement. She followed neoliberalism and more privatization as a means in her mind to grow the economic system of the UK. The miners' strike of 1984-5 came in response to her policies. The strike in 1984-85 allowed the UK elite to allow some 20,000 miners to be injured, 13,000 arrested, 200 imprisoned, almost 1,000 summarily sacked, and two were killed on picket lines. Miners to this day have criticized Thatcher about this situation. On apartheid, she was doubled minded. A double minded human being is unstable in all of his or her ways as the Scriptures accurately mentioned. She made public statements in the 1980's in opposition to apartheid, but she never wanted hardcore sanctions against the South African Regime (since she felt that a gradual approach was needed in solving the issue. That is wrong, because the tranquilizing drug of gradualism will never equal into total justice. Justice must be shown in society as soon as possible via any means necessary). She even traded with the then apartheid regime of South Africa while praising Botha, which was wrong. Sanctions have every right to be made against an apartheid regime. She called the ANC including Nelson Mandela terrorists. There were riots in the UK in her reign, because of economic oppression and discrimination. The stop and frisk policies in the UK back then continue now in America in NYC (and across the United States). In 1989-90, she imposed the poll tax. This tax charged everyone from billionaires to the poor the same amount to finance local government. There was a riot and then the Tories helped to end the poll tax. Economic inequality grew in her tenure. Her handwritten notes show that she wanted deeper cuts. She did not want more Vietnamese refugees into Britain since that would give council housing ahead of white citizens. She was wrong for being an ally of the dictator Pinochet of Chile. I am not making this up. She was not totally reactionary at every issue. She wanted more taxes sometimes. She believed in climate change. I don't believe in celebrating her death though since that is wrong morally. In America, we don't celebrate someone's death like that culturally unless it is a Hitler like figure. We wait for a few days after someone dies, then talk about them in more critical terms. Thatcher is not Hitler. One of the good things that she did was that she opposed the European Union having too much influence in the United Kingdom. The Brits have a right to their national sovereignty indeed. She is wrong on some issues, but she is not a Nazi. Margaret Thatcher was more conservative political figure who made controversial actions. The establishment media lies and say that Thatcher had no alternative when there are plenty of alternatives to economic issues in the world. Her brand of capitalism worked for the millionaire politicians and the super-rich, but not the poor. Giving the City of London a free pass in doing what it wants is not progress. Deregulation has harmed manufacturing jobs and energy including transport. Economic growth was the same in the 1970's and the 1980's, but economic inequality grew. So, Margaret Thatcher was a woman whose policies lead a destructive trial in the lives of the human beings of the United Kingdom, which the UK has not fully recovered to this very day. Her life is a cautionary story of what not to do if you have political leadership capacity in any level of government.

 

 

The crisis in North Korea still exists. North Korea is not the most powerful nation on Earth, but some in the West are acting like it. Now, the West believes that North Korea is threatening to launch a test missile over Japan. Japan and America are deploying missile defense systems which can shoot down any missiles which North Korea aims at Japan, South Korea, or the U.S. North Korea's wild threats are in response to the massive U.S. and South Korean war games. These war games simulate a nuclear attack on North Korea. The Wall Street Journal admitted last month that the bomber flights from the U.S. can be seen as provocative. This can have memories of the destruction from the air during the Korean War. During the Korean War, the United States Air Force demolished every target over one story. It dropped more napalm than it did later in Vietnam. The Korean War ended with a stalemate and the U.S. refused to sign a peace treaty. The U.S. officials said that they are not certain if North Korea could detect the approach of the B-52s. “We could fly it at night, but the point was for them to see it,” said a U.S. defense official. Even tensions continue among both sides, a conflict can come. That is why South Korea now is urging China to step in as a means to end the conflict. Some in China want to back North Korea and others supported the UN sanctions against North Korea. The Obama playbook includes annual war games with South Korea that have been planned for a while now. This includes well-publicized flights in recent weeks near North Korea by nuclear-capable B-52 and stealth B-2 bombers, as well as advanced F-22 warplanes. “The concern was that we were heightening the prospect of misperceptions on the part of the North Koreans, and that that could lead to miscalculations,” a senior administration official said. North Korea is suffering now. We support the North Korean people, but the leadership of North Korea is not perfect either. The leadership has a lavish lifestyle and economic inequality is still a problem in North Korea as a product of public policy and Western sanctions. Western sanctions against North Korea have harmed North Korea. The new Defense Chuck Hagel is outlining the U.S. response to North Korea greatly. Meanwhile, the West has plans for a pre-emptive strike against North Korea. The West is using the lie that North Korea is some major threat to American soil as an excuse to provoke tensions in that region since how can you make war games without North Korea responding. Western Asian dominance is a goal of the West. China believes that the West is building military forces as a means to use it as a buffer against China. The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) regime headed by President Xi Jinping is thinking about what to do.  The United States believes that North Korea is a rogue regime, yet foreign policy affairs are complex at times. General Walter Sharp, the former US military commander in South Korea, told America’s National Public Radio (NPR): “there’s been a lot of effort over the past two and a half years now to build this counter-provocation plan. Because that’s a hard balance of a strong response: don’t escalate, but be prepared to go to war.” Pyongyang relies on China for critical food and fuel supplies. The neo-conservatives and the war hawks are exploiting this Western baiting of North Korea with B-2 fighters as an excuse to try to initiate some war (or continued sanctions against North Korea). North Korea is suffering by murderous UN sanction and diplomatic pressures. Even some of the nuclear weapons in North Korea have been given to them by the United States.
Rumsfeld was man who presided over a $200 million dollar contract to deliver equipment and services to build two light water reactor stations in North Korea in January 2000 when he was an executive director of ABB (Asea Brown Boveri). Wolfram Eberhardt, a spokesman for ABB confirmed that Rumsfeld was at nearly all the board meetings during his involvement with the company. Rumsfeld was merely picking up the baton from the Clinton administration, who in 1994 agreed to replace North Korea’s domestically built nuclear reactors with light water nuclear reactors. So-called government-funded ‘experts’ claimed that light water reactors couldn’t be used to make bombs. Not so according to Henry Sokolski, head of the Non-proliferation Policy Education Center in Washington, who stated, “LWRs could be used to produce dozens of bombs’ worth of weapons-grade plutonium in both North Korea and Iran. This is true of all LWRs — a depressing fact U.S. policymakers have managed to block out.”  These reactors can be made into weapons. Yet, there is no evidence that North Korea has massively advanced their nuclear and military prowess in that region at all. In a recent report published in the Washington Post today, a former senior Obama administration official admitted there is no evidence of any such advancement, saying, “We’re worried about it, but we haven’t seen it”, and adding, “They cooperate in many areas, especially missiles. Why it hasn’t yet extended to the nuclear program is frankly a mystery.” On Friday, South Korean officials admitted that to their knowledge, North Korea is not targeting the US mainland with nuclear missiles, which contradicts official government propaganda coming out of both North Korea and the US. The military industrial complex has thousands of military bases worldwide. So, this event is being used by the West as a means to fulfill their playbook of Asian dominance (or the control of the Asian region from China to other nations). The Empire is ever evil. We need to advance peace not war. We need jobs, health care, education, real basic human rights, an end to police brutality, and a healthy environment as well. We should not follow jingoistic propaganda at all. The North Koreans are not the enemy at all. They are not a threat to our soil. The better solution is peace and strong negotiations as a means to end this conflict completely.

The struggle for liberty continues. Like I always mentioned, the left gatekeeper is just as wrong as the right gatekeeper. One such left gatekeeper said that you are paranoid if you question the government. He is Joe Klein or a Time columnist. He made these words on MSNBC's Chris Matthews show. The discussion was about gun control and the Obama administration's push for it. Klein said that gun owners don't need so many bullets. What right does any man have to tell a law abiding human being how many bullets they need for a weapon. That is that person's business as long as the owner is not doing something immoral. Klein then stated that the US has become a “lot more wimpy” as a nation because “these gun advocates at the NRA want these semi-automatic weapons.” “Well, I think that that’s at the root of it, but there’s something else that’s going on now that is really, really dangerous, and it’s this festering sense that we need to have these semi-automatic weapons because the government in Washington is about to oppress us.” he said. The reality despite Klein's silliness is that the Constitution and even natural rights place limitations to prevent the government from becoming oppressive. I believe in efficient government not oppressive government. When the government send unrestricted drone assassination overseas by the same administration that claims to want safety, when its TSA has been molesting human beings, when it has stop and frisk, when it has unjust laws, and when it has imperialist wars of aggression, then we as human beings have the right expose these things as criminal. Ironically, Klein has argued that killing innocent 4 year old children in Pakistan and Afghanistan is just fine, as long as it protects 4 year olds here. Democide is immoral. There are those who accuse of some using the new NY law as confiscating guns from human beings who take anti-anxiety medication. This claim is made by Jim Tresmond of the Tresmond Law Firm in Hamburg, New York. Tresmond Law specializes in firearm litigation. “We are representing a client right now who is impacted by this onerous activity of the government,” Tresmond told WBEN, a news talk radio station in Buffalo, New York. “We were flummoxed by this whole matter,” the attorney said. “The HIPPA act is supposed to prevent this kind of thing from happening. It’s a gross invasion of our privacy rights.” Now, the issue is that the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act. This Privacy Rule establishes national standards to protect individuals’ medical records and other personal health information, according to the Department of Health and Human Services. The new NY law could take legal action against legal firearm owners under certain circumstances. Even Section 9.46 of the NY SAFE Act of 2013 authorizes therapists, doctors, nurses and social workers to report patients they determine may engage in conduct that may result in harm to self or others. If a determination is made that the person in question poses a threat, the provision permits the government to confiscate firearms. The provision is a direct violation of the Fourth Amendment and the legal standard of probable cause. Some expect feel that many health providers will ignore the provision. This NY SAFE law was passed by the NY State Legislature on January 15, 2013. Governor Andrew Cuomo passed the law on the same day.

Caribbean Culture is heavily unique and diverse. There are many official symbols of the Caribbean region. There are the parrot, the palm, and the shell. Many Caribbean human beings show their flags all of time in vehicles, homes, parades, and other locations. Caribbean literature is made up of many languages from English, French, Spanish, etc. Sometimes, the literature is based on nature, gender, and ethnicity. Andrew Salkey was one such famous journalist of Jamaican and Haitian descent. He was born in Panama and raised in Jamaica. Salkey was part of the West Indian Student Union or WISU. This was a forum for Caribbean students to express their ideas and provide voluntary support for the harassed working class Caribbean immigrant community from the 1960's to the 1980's of the UK. He was a great prolific writer of over 30 books in his life including novels for adults and for children. He wrote poetry collections, anthologies, travelogues, and essays. One of the great parts of Caribbean culture has been sports or athletics. Many Caribbeans love soccer, cricket, rugby, and softball. Cricket is the biggest sport in the Caribbean. We know that track and field is loved by Jamaica. You see their names all of the time from the Olympics to athletic competitions globally. The Jamaican Usain Bolt is the fastest sprinter in human history. Yohan Blake is part of new generation. The very young gold medal winner of the 2012 Summer Olympics Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce won her 100m race too (as a World Champion). Veronica Campbell-Brown is a legend in her own right by performing in the 100m and the 200m (including winning championships and gold medals. The friendly competition between Jamaica and the United States in terms of track and field is excellent for the sport in general. The reason is that regardless of our nationalities, we are brothers and sisters. We are all one people from one blood). Kerron Stewart, Sherone Simpson, Brigitte Foster-Hylton, Dellloreen Ennis-London, Merlene Ottey, Asfa Powell, and other track and field Jamaican athletes deserve their respect and due. They not only act in sports, but they perform firmly in charities and other programs to assist legitimately their own people. Caribbean is extremely diverse indeed. Compas is a form of the national music genre of Haiti. Human beings have been dancing and singing compass music since the 1800's. Nemours Jean-Baptiste popularized this form of music via the Haitian sax and the guitar in 1955. It is found not only in Haiti, but in Martinique, Guadeloupe, Dominicia, etc. Jamaican music can be found in reggae, ska, mento, dancehall, dub, kumina, lovers rock, rocksteady, roots reggae, nyabinghi, and other forms of music. We know about the famous international music of reggae. In the States, I listened to reggae for a number of years. Calypso is a Trinidadian form of music. It can be in the form of slow tempo along with having vocalist composers or calypsonians. Songs in calypso can mention issues from love to social commentaries. They are performed in the Carnival. Its rhythms come from West Africa. It is associated also with the Bahamas, Jamaica, Bermuda, and the Virgin islands. Carnival is one of the famous celebrations in the Caribbean. They usually occur before Lent during February. They include a public celebration or parade with mix of a circus, mask, and public street party. Both males and females in Carnival wear masks as a means to have fun or celebrate life in general. Many Carnivals are heavily Catholic or Eastern Orthodox. Some Protestant areas have their modified traditions like the Danish Carnival or the Shrove Tuesday events. Caribbean Carnival celebrations happen year round. Such Caribbean festivals exist globally from France, the States, to Calgary, Canada. Many of such Carnivals have themes from the Trinidad and Tobago Carnival. In such a Carnival in Trinidad and Tobago, you have calypso and soca played. Many human beings wear costumes in many colorful arrays.




Bertrand Russell wanted to use eugenics to transcend man, so the rich can have more power than the poor. The Royal Society advanced eugenics as well. Some of the elites wanted to use eugenics to control the masses of human life. There have been advancements in technology. Eugenics has been spread into different facets of society from anthropology to politics. The evil of population control has been a war on the individual and the family. Eugenics threatens modern society. Eugenics devalues human labor and human life. The forced one child policy is real in China. Even Francis Galton developed biometrics including fingerprints for criminals. Galton worked with his relatives called the Huxleys. Many wealthy industrialists in the United States decades ago like the Rockefellers, the Carnegies, the Harrimans, etc. set up a records office. They wanted to collect height, gender, hair, etc. to figure who was worth sterilization, etc. The obsession of the numbering of man has been admitted by Professor Carroll Quigley in his book, "Tragedy and Hope" from page 866. He wrote that: "...In general, his freedom and choice will be controlled within very narrow alternatives by the fact that he will be numbered from birth...and followed, as a number, through his educational training his required military or other public service, his tax contributions, his health and medical requirements, and his final retirement and death benefits." The Rockefeller Foundation has been involved in such movements including population control. Even now, we see similar databases. We have babies blood in databases globally. We have the human genome project that tried to document and research every aspect of DNA (in drawing conclusions). Biometrics has been used then and now to track human populations. In our age, the most powerful population control organizations today include the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the Rockefeller Foundation, the David and Lucile Packard Foundation, the Ford Foundation, the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation, the MacArthur Foundation, the Turner Foundation, and the Open Society Institute. Millions of dollars are sent to these organizations per year. These population control funds are sent to especially the Third World or the developed world. The Rockefellers knew that the masses of the people hated their oil empire, but they funded Sanger and even the Wilhelm Institute. The Rockefellers used funds to advance social engineering. The elite exploited the knowledge of genetics as a means to try to control society (in the post industrial age). We have nanotechnology and the elite have bashed and exploited labor all of the time. The big internationalists even use GMOs as a means to have a monopoly of food production and the means of production in general. The real issue is that the industrialists have used the UNESCO vehicle and advanced their personal agendas of massive monopolies and the growth of corporate power. These human beings want to have centralized control and propaganda as a means to have massive depopulation of the reproduction of human beings. Even in India, there have been compulsory sterilizations. There are camps in India where women were in camps to be sterilized by force. In Peru, human beings were targeted for sterilization. Sterilization ends the human line forever. It is over. One of the most famous works that describe the agenda of eugenics is found in John R. Holdren's called Ecoscience. The book proposes no more than 2 children for human beings to have: "...Why should the law not be able to prevent a person from having more than two children?" (Ecoscience on pg. 838). The book continues to mention that: "...The development of a long term sterilizing capsule that could be implanted under the skin and removed when pregnancy is desired opens additional possibilities for coercive fertility control...The capsule could be implanted at puberty and might be removable, with official permission, for a limited number of births..." (Ecoscience, pg. 786-787). The book Ecoscience on pg. 837 advocates forced abortion, which is hugely evil, if they feel that the population growth could endanger society. These folks actually write this stuff and this agenda is blatantly authoritarian. Authoritarian regimes from Hitler to Pinochet involve tyranny point blank period. Certain drugs can prevent human beings from reproduction. There has been research by the Population Council in anti-sperm chemicals and vaccines. Eugenics is more covert after WWII. They are uses vaccines, steriliants in water, food, etc. as a means to control population. The elite even wanted to use food as a weapon against societies. Henry Kissinger in the April 1974 National Security Memorandum 200 (NSSM 200) admitted that: "...Family planning performance and "population control" should be taken into account for "appraisal of assistance requirements by US AID." This means that the degree of population depopulation depends by how much food the West wants to give the Third World. This is an old plan. Bertrand Russell in 1953 in his The Impact of Science on Society admitted that: "...To deal with this problem [increasing population and decreasing food supplies] it will be necessary to find ways of preventing an increase in world population." He also mentions in the same source that: "...If this is to be done otherwise than by wars, pestilence, and famines, it will demand a powerful international authority. This authority should deal out of the world's food to the various nations in proportion to their population...If any nation subsequently increased its population it should not on that account receive any more food. The motive for not increasing population would therefore be very compelling." Additionally, in the Ecoscience book on pgs. 942-943 mention that Holdren and company wanted to have the UN population agencies with the UNEP to have a planetary regime or an international superagency for population, resources, and the environment. They wanted that planetary regime to handle foods in the international market and determining the optimum population for the world. That is about having someone world government to handle the entire world resources. That plan is all about tyranny and the modern day population control agency is leading into that if we don't do something about. Some of them want even lithium beyond just fluoride in our water supply. They or big corporations like Monsanto want GMOs when some of them can sterilize rats as experiments globally have documented. The Rockefeller Foundation has used environmental cover as a means to manipulate our political power and food supplies. Some of them want state authority to determine who can reproduce in the world. This is the essence of much of the eugenics movement. The eugenics movement from race specific bioweapons to other evils is of the establishment. We have the right to have our personal independence. The family ought to be valued as well.
