Monday News in early May of 2013





 

Now, we see the Israeli airstrikes signaling Western desperation in Syria. Israel claim that their airstrikes against Syria along the Lebanese-Syrian border is for a good cause. The CNN network says that the U.S. believes that Israel has conducted an airstrike into Syria. Israel says that it wants to stop the transfer of any kinds of weapons to Hezbollah or other terrorist groups. They feel that they want to prevent any effort to smuggle Syrian weapons in Lebanon that could threaten Israel. This very flimsy pretext was used in an earlier alleged Israeli attack on Syrian territory earlier this year. Some of the other terrorists groups that Israel is said to be worried about have been funded and directed by U.S., Israel, and Saudi Arabia. These groups are being as a means for the Western elite and their allies to overthrow or harm the nations of Iran and Syria. This has been explained by Pulitzer Prize winning journalist Seymour Hersh in his 2007 New Yorker article entitled, "The Redirection." The article documented how the earlier Bush administration wanted to use Sunni extremist groups as a means to undermine the mostly Shiite nation of Iran (even if it took some of these extremist organizations with sympathy for al-Qaeda and hostility to America). The Bush administration worked with Saudi Arabia as a means to do clandestine operations in Lebanon as a means to weaken Hezbollah, which is a mostly Shiite group with ties to Iran. Saudi Arabia and Israel agree that that they view Iran as an existential threat. The Saudis believe that a pacified Iran could cause greater stability in Israel and Palestine. That is why Bandar was very close to the Bush administration. The U.S., Saudis, and Israelis use proxies in Syria as a means to attempt defeat the current Syrian regime. In reality, the pressure placed on Syria’s borders by both Israel and its partner, Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan’s Turkey in the north, is part of a documented plan to relieve pressure on the Western, Israeli, Saudi-Qatari armed and funded terrorists currently collapsing inside Syria. Even the U.S. foreign policy think tank or the Brookings Institution has blueprints for regime change in Libya, Syria, and Iran (entitled in their reported called "Assessing Options for Regime Change"). Their report mentioned that Israeli actions in the south of Syria and Turkey's aligning a huge amount of weapons and troops in its border to the north could help cause violent regime change in Syria. The Israeli airstrikes could be a way of signaling how Israel could attack Iran with American consent. These unprovoked attacks against Syria outline irrational belligerent posturing. Israel acting as the bad cop in the affair, so it can give the Western corporate financier interests as means for the West to intervene in these conflicts. So far, the NATO proxy terrorist forces in Syria have not overthrown Assad at all. Many sincere Israelis already realize that their leaders don't represent them or their best interests at all. Many leaders want to serve the foreign corporate financier interests including the global hegemony not the people.




The aftermath of the Boston bombings in America and Canada is readily being known. There has been speculation and skepticism about the Boston Bombings. The FBI ruled the official investigation on the day of the attacks. There have been critical questions asked about these events and other terrorist plots. The FBI lied about such situations for decades. The FBI has even been caught trying to manufacture numerous terrorist plots in the U.S. Trevor Aaronson made pioneering work on the FBI involvement in infiltrating terrorist suspects. His research is found in the cover of Mother Jones magazine in 2011. It became one of the top 25 most censored stories of 2011-2012 by the media democracy organization called Project Censored. You have to know history in this regard as a means to have a keen analysis of the incident. In Canada, the Conservative government invoked the Boston attacks as an excuse to rush through the legislation. This legislation previously sunsetted anti-terrorism provisions of preventative arrest and investigative hearings. During the same week that the Canadian Parliament was debating a new anti-terrorism bill, the RCMP announced the arrest of two individuals who were accused of plotting to attack a Via Rail passenger train. The RCMP said little about the evidence of the accused plotters' guilt. They claim that they had links with Al-Qaeda in Iran. This innuendo is similar to the false Iraqi alleged links to terrorism leading up to the 2003 Iraq War. The U.S., Canada, and Western nations have an enmity with Iran, which is why Iran is characterized in negative designations by the West all of the time.  The Constitutional lawyer Rocco Galati exposed the recently passed Combating Terrorism Act as a threat to civil liberties, which is beyond Islamic extremism. Even MSNBC's Lawrence O'Donnell lied about the forced Lockdown order in Boston and Watertown. Martial law was imposed in both cities for 12 hours and authorities searched for 19 year old unarmed young adult. Lawrence lied and said that armored personnel aren't really tanks. When a tactical team of 20 armed men comes to someone's door and request to search your person and your home, it is not equivalent to invite troopers for tea. It is militarism in American soil and many of these authorities did it without due process and without warrants. I do not agree with Ron Paul on numerous issues, but even he is right on this issue. Bostonians said that many authorities searched residents. Journalists were told to get on the ground while they were searched. Heavily armed police and helicopters enforced a shelter in place order. That state siege violated every civil liberty inscribed in the Bill of Rights. Obama’s Justice Department decided not to read Dzhokhar Tsarnaev his Miranda rights immediately to remain silent and have a lawyer present at any interrogation. The Los Angeles Times reported that the interagency High Value Detainee Interrogation Group ignored repeated requests for legal counsel from the severely wounded suspect during 16 hours of questioning. When the authorities carried out warrantless house to house searches, we know what time it is. So-called liberals like Lawrence O’Donnell supporting this tyrannical display of fascism are typical of folks of his ilk. They may claim to be down for the cause, but when push comes to shove, they are silent on imperialism and record economic inequality in the world.

In Australia, the battle for true economic justice continues. The Queensland government is making an offensive against the public sector. Queensland’s Liberal-National Party state government made a far reaching offensive against the public sector last week. Some of them want the ending of social programs and more than 14,000 government jobs since it was elected in a landslide defeat for the previous Labor government in March of last year. Premier Campbell Newman called this proposed action, “the most significant transformation of the public sector in Queensland for four decades.” He outlined the wholesale handing over of social programs—including health, education, welfare, community services, housing and public transport—to corporate, for-profit, providers. Newman said that the role of government would change from doer to enabler. He wants government services to have contestability. This represents the shifting of government services into the hands of private operators that could ruthlessly strip back programs. This policy would retrench entire workforces and hire new ones on lower wages and worse conditions. This could make services catering for the most vulnerable members of society (like the homeless, disabled, public housing tenants, aged and children) will be outsourced. The financial elite in the globe want to target public health systems. If the elite will have their way, then public hospitals will have to contract out their clinical, clinical support and outpatient services, and this will apply to community health including dental health programs. Newman said that his government had accepted three-quarters of the 155 recommendations made by an audit commission headed by former federal Treasurer Peter Costello, James Cook University vice-chancellor Sandra Harding, and state Public Service Commission chairman Doug McTaggart. Labor sold railways, motorways, ports, forest plantations, and other facilities, so Labor was defeated last year. There is a public hostility in Australia of outright privatization of essential services. The lovers of privatization want it as a means to pay up to $30 billion in state debt as a means to regain the state's AAA credit ranking with global rating agencies. There are no details about what the total expected cuts will be. It could harm schools and other things. Seeking to distance the federal Labor government of Prime Minister Julia Gillard from the Queensland cuts, Trade Minister Craig Emerson said: “What you’re seeing in Queensland right now is just the curtain-raiser to what [opposition Liberal Party leader] Mr. Abbott would do with their crazy austerity drives, where they’re prepared to sacrifice jobs and growth in order to fit their ideology.” Some feel that even the Gillard government wants this austerity drive. The Queensland blueprint is tied to Labor's pro-business agenda to cut welfare, public health, education, and other essential social services. Costello’s report pointed to the emerging collapse of government revenues derived from the mining boom. In 2011–12, capital expenditure on mining investment in Queensland was $25.7 billion, some 14 times higher than a decade earlier in 2001–02. That unprecedented surge, largely fuelled by China’s growth, is rapidly coming to an end. This is causing the corporate to cut back government functions. Some have protested these acts like thousands of workers did in Brisbane last September 2012 (filled with about 10,000 human beings). Some unions even want some cutting of jobs or amalgamating schools, which is strange. Queensland is in risk of some of biggest reversal of the social safety net since the last Great Depression of the 1930's.


One of the greatest black Caribbean leaders in history was Walter Rodney. He only lived from March 23, 1942 to June 13, 1980. He was a great historian, political activist, and preeminent scholar. He was working in a working class family. He was a very intelligent student. He attended Queen's College in Guyana. He was a champion debater and athlete. He later went on a scholarship to University College of the West Indies (UCWI) in Jamaica. He graduated in 1963 with a first class degree in 1963. He won the Faculty of Arts prize. He earned a PhD in African History at 1966 at the School of Oriental and African Studies in London, England. He was only 24 years old. He wrote a dissertation about the slave trade on the Upper Guinea Coast. It was published by the Oxford University Press in 1970 under the title of A History of the Upper Guinea Coast 1545-1800. It was acclaimed for its originality in challenging the conventional wisdom on the issue of the Maafa. Rodney traveled all over the world. He was known as an excellent scholar, activist, and orator. He taught at the University of Dar es Salaam in Tanzania during the period of 1966 to 1967. He did the same in Jamaica at his alma mater in UWI Mona. He did not like some of the middle class in its role in the post-independence of the Caribbean. He criticized heavily capitalism. He wanted a socialist development template. By October 14, 1968 the Jamaican Prime Minister Hugh Shearer banned him from returning to Jamaica via persona non grata. The reason was that Rodney advocated the rights of the working poor. Rebellions came in Jamaica and many human beings died. After the October 16, 1968 Rodney Riots came an increase among the Caribbean community, especially among the Afrocentric Rastafarian community in Jamaica. All of this is documented his book called "The Groundlings With My Brothers." In 1969, Rodney returned to the University of Dar es Salaam, where he served as a Professor of History until 1974. He was a famous Pan-Africanist. He was important in the Black Power Movement in the Caribbean and North America. He was very much known for building up Dar es Salaam in having new African learning and discussion. By 1974, he returned to Guyana from Tanzania. He worked in politics. He was a professor at the University of Guyana. He founded the Working People's Alliance. It opposed the PNC government. He was arrested and charged with arson after 2 government offices were burned in 1979. He was murdered by a bomb in his car in June 13, 1980. This came after he celebrated the independence celebrations in Zimbabwe. He was survived by his wife named Pat and his 3 children. His brother, Donald Rodney, who was injured in the explosion, said that a sergeant in the Guyana Defense Force named Gregory Smith had given Walter the bomb that killed him. After the killing, Smith fled to French Guiana where he died in 2002. It is said that President Linden Forbes Burnham was involved in the assassination, because Rodney wanted various ethnic groups to work together in a class struggle. His legacy is extensive. His magnum opus is called How Europe Underdeveloped Africa. It was published in 1972. It proved how Africa was exploited consciously by European imperialism, which resulted in the underdevelopment of much of the continent. His research was groundbreaking in that it analyzed how the slave trade effected Africa centuries later.


We know that Hollywood and the popular culture have used strange symbols all of the time like the lightning bolts. It is shown by musicians like Lady Gaga and it is found in other realms of Hollywood all of the time. According to Dr. Cathy Burns' Masonic and Occult Symbols Illustrated book, the lightning bolt is known in witchcraft as the Satanic S. She wrote that the symbol was used by the Nazi SS decades ago. Like with all symbols, there are multiple levels of meaning to them. To other members of the occult, the lightning bolt represent power and life force descending from Satan into matter according to some theistic Satanists. The lightning bolt has been used in the logo for RKO Pictures. The lightning bolt to some outlines the opening of the third eye - or advanced psychical powers (when the chakras are activated). In more ancient times, Zeus is shown using the lightning bolt and thunder as a method in executing his power. It is easy to witness the fact that the evils found in Hollywood is so overt that even human beings from across the political spectrum has discussed about this issue. For the past years, more human beings are waking up. Not only is religious bigotry, adultery, murder, revenge, hatred, and revelry glamorized in Hollywood and the mainstream entertainment industry. They love to show butchery of human beings and really grotesque acts that advance dehumanization and vulgarity. Many movies show the depths of perverted thinking found in the minds of the elite. Even the movie called the Rapture want to make the stereotype of Christians being murderers and sick individuals. That movie stars Mimi Rogers and David Duchovny.  Clint Eastwood directed the Hereafter that blasphemes Christianity. Clint believes in the lie of Austrian Economics and said that he is a libertarian. Yet, he voted for Mitt Romney (a Mormon) who is not a true libertarian at all. Eastwood is known for his disrespectful, mocking act in the 2012 National Republican Convention. Eastwood likes Buddhism, but anyone of any faith would not love the state advancing austerity. Some of the most sadistic, demented folks in the States love unHolyweird since unHolyweird gives them an outlet to express their sick fantasies and thinking in public. Back in the 1980's, Robocop II came about allowing 8 year old kids to curse a character out. Now, this is wrong for kids to do this in schools and it is found for little children to act like this in a movie morally. Today, there is the growth of violent reality shows and other shows that advance no intellectual curiosity. There is much cultural decay in America. We should not be a theocracy, but we have to advance truth in society. Hollywood has been allied with the CIA and the rest of the military industrial complex for decades. That is why the CIA helped to aid the creation of the Dark Zero Thirty film. Even the high level courts are a reflection of the evil system of white supremacy in society. Even a preacher can't use certain words and phrases today that he was able to use 50-years ago. In December of 2010, the Parents Television Council publicized a study condemning television executives who exploit underaged teenaged girls for profit. When you have evil folks and globalists in charge of society, you have families broken up, record economic inequality, jobs being lost, the sanctity of human life being mocked or ridiculed, celebrities being nearly worshipped, token economic gains, record Wall Street profits, and imperialism worldwide. It was the same criminal international banking cartel that funded Nazism, Stalinist form of Communism, laissez faire capitalism, and the wicked war on terror in our age. Speaking of the Iraq War, it was a war crime. It violated national and international law. The Bush administration BROKE THE LAW again and again and again. Jessica Lynch wouldn't have been in Iraq if it were not for the blatant, treasonous, war crimes of George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, Condoleezza Rice, John Ashcroft and too many others to name. Many Iraqis and Americans were needlessly murdered in not only Iraq, but throughout the Earth. Imperialism grows under drones and other evil crimes. Many Americans have a lot of innocent blood on their hands. The government, which is dominated by corporate interests, does what it wants in our name and without our money. The mainstream media show straight out propaganda all of the time and we have the subsequent right to speak out against these evils. You can't swear allegiance to either the Republicans or the Democrats when the leadership of both parties is ruled by the same human beings. The CIA, the White House, the Supreme Court, the FBI, Homeland Security, and other agencies have done corruption for decades. Therefore, we should be careful on what we do. There is good and evil in the Universe. There is cause and effect. In other words, if you do evil, then you will be punished for it. If you do the right thing and help out humanity sincerely, then the Creator God will bless in numerous ways. That is guarantee. Sometimes, you have to take on corrupt power in order for us as the people to have real Power for the people. We have to advocate justice for the poor, for real folks in labor, for the immigrants, and all of our neighbors. The truth is never reasonable to the status quo. It breaks the power of the status quo.
