Liberals - Accessories to the Crimes

Driving today I came to a stop sign within a large shopping complex. In an area of grass adjacent to the stop sign was a young family, a father, mother and three very young children. The father was holding up a sign saying they needed money for rent and food, etc. I immediately pulled over and handed the man a five dollar bill through my car window. He profusely thanked me in Spanish while his wife did the same in the background. All I could say was good luck to you. Then my fucking bleeding heart really took over.

These people are refugees.

I had always considered myself a liberal until I ran across other people who also called themselves liberals. Those people weren't like me, and I didn't want to be like them. Those people supported politicians who waged war and killed children. I couldn't imagine how anyone who called themselves a liberal could support anything that had to do with harming to innocent people, especially children.  So I quit calling myself a liberal. I struggled with it for awhile because I not only considered myself a liberal but a "bleeding heart" liberal. It's not that I don't have some conservative or quasi-conservative viewpoints on some issues, but overall I tend to exhibit what are typically defined as liberal tendencies. My heart doesn't bleed for everyone. If Dick Cheney passed around a hat for donations for a new heart, I'd steal from the damn hat.  But I give money to those on the corner; I give a room to those who are about to become homeless; and I speak to those others avoid. 

But I refuse to call myself a liberal or a bleeding heart liberal because of what those other people have done to the label. Those people support the elected politicians who wage war and cause utter heartbreak like what we're seeing in (and out of) Syria. Those people blame the Syria war, which is 100% on Obama and the United States (not that others haven't participated but it would not have happened without Obama and the United States government) on Assad or others without looking themselves in the eye. They did the same thing with Libya, are doing the same thing with Yemen, the War OF Terror, the Afghanistan war, and everywhere else U.S. imperialism lays it's evil tentacles.  They support U.S. imperialism and all of it's impacts because they support the politicians and government officials who take those actions. 

I won't look past that. They claim their hearts are bleeding from what they see coming out of Obama's Syria war, but their hearts aren't bleeding red, they're bleeding hypocritical black. They're accessories to what's happening through their hapless support so the cries of "oh the humanity" are outrageously hypocritical. These are people so wrapped up in their little worlds created by their masters that they will vote for Hillary Clinton for President, the very war criminal who helped create the Syrian refugee crisis along with Obama, the greatest fraud in human history.

The next day after my encounter with the refugee family on the street corner, I went back to the street corner prepared to give money and perhaps shelter to them.  They weren't there.  There was nothing I could do.  I should have done it yesterday.  The lament of a bleeding heart.  I hope someone else helps them better than I could.  Or better than I did.  Another lament of the bleeding heart.

But don't call me a liberal.  Fuck that.  Don't even call me a bleeding heart liberal.  Fuck that too. Those labels are tainted beyond repair, or like we used to say in the military, FUBAR - fucked up beyond all recognition.

  

How to Start a Global Revolution

Let's see, that's the question and why I started this blog.  Put up or shut up time.  I've railed against others for not seeking solutions to our mess.  I've left other blogs because I was tired of talking about the same shit all the time. 

So I started my own blog, this is it. 

Here's how to start a global revolution.

I'll expand on this later.  

"Solving 9/11 Ends the War"

Our rulers have been at their War OF Terror for over 14 years now.  Most people just can't wrap their little propagandized heads around that nor do they want to. 

And most people, including most of the faux left, certainly don't want to touch what happened on 9/11.  They're either afraid to talk about it, afraid to come to an honest fucking conclusion, or somehow buy the same story Dick Cheney and George Bush are selling. 

Christopher Bollyn has been a long time crusader for the truth about 9/11.  I guess the brainwashed sycophants among us would call him a Truther in a derisive way, exposing their own stupidity for believing such a fantastical tale as the official 9/11 story. 

Here's a recent video where he gives a fresh take on the evidence and exposes the real perpetrators.

People ask what we need to do to take down the ruling elite.  This is one of those things, expose the truth about 9/11 and bring justice to those who did it.  As these videos show, that includes Israel Mossad, Dick Cheney and Haliburton and the Bush neocons.

 

This is an excellent short video of research done by Rebekah Roth proving Israel Mossad's involvement. 

 

Obama is a Murderous Bastard

There is no mistake about it, Syria is Obama's war.  We can talk about Iraq/Bush and all the others, but for now, that has to be the simple message from all those who want to stop this travesty. 

May Obama and his minions go to hell for this:

"Four babies, six boys and five girls died when the wooden vessel carrying them overturned on Sunday morning, about three miles (5 km) east of the small island of Farmakonisi, close to Turkey's coast, the service added."

"Tens of thousands of mainly Syrian refugees have braved rough seas this year to make the short but precarious journey from Turkey to Greece's eastern islands, mainly in flimsy and overcrowded inflatable dinghies.

Thousands have died, many of them taking the much longer crossing from Libya, in Europe's worst migrant crisis in decades.

Details of the nationalities and ages of the victims of Sunday's sinking off Farmakonisi were not immediately available."

http://news.yahoo.com/twenty-eight-refugees-drown-off-greek-island-135521987.html

Killing babies and little children.  That's our country, that's our government.  Where's the outrage?

Those that know the truth better start speaking up.  The only way to stop this is to stop our own government from waging it's war. 

Stop the War in Syria. 

The sad thing is I could go out on the street corner with a sign saying just that and most people passing by would not know I mean stop the U.S. government.  They'll think I'm talking about stopping Assad or stopping ISIS. 

Those that know the truth have to speak up. 

Those bastards.

"They Died for My Right to Vote"

I'm an advocate of boycotting the national election process, which is nothing but a fraud on the American people pretending to represent democracy.  We don't live in a democracy.  It's time people faced up to that fact.  Maybe place yourself in front of a mirror and repeat five times, "We don't live in a democracy. We don't live in a democracy.  We don't live in a democracy. We don't live in a democracy."   Do it while staring directly into your own eyes.  

Then go in another room and try to sing the Star Spangled Banner.  

If you can, forget it. Go back to the mirror.  

Advocating a boycott of the election is almost sacrilegious to some people.  It's like suggesting they give up their children or something.  They look at you like you're some kind of freak, as they go vote for Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton. 

Who's the freak?

Anyway, one of the comebacks I get is "People died for my right to vote, so I damn well am going to vote". 

To which I say, Ya, but they didn't die so you could sit on your fucking ass and let it become completely worthless.

Syria - One More Time

The War in Syria has been so well propagandized and so well disguised as a U.S. war that even when people are told the truth about it, they still turn around and call it a Civil war and wonder how to stop ISIS and Assad.  

The only way to stop this war is to stop the primary aggressor, the one responsible for the war, the United States of America. 

So once again, for posterity:  ("The Wikileaks Files: The World According to U.S. Empire")

“In the case of Syria, the cables [documents] show that regime change had been a longstanding goal of US policy; that the US promoted sectarianism in support of its regime-change policy, thus helping lay the foundation for the sectarian civil war and massive bloodshed that we see in Syria today; that key components of the Bush administration’s regime-change policy remained in place even as the Obama administration moved publicly toward a policy of engagement; and that the US government was much more interested in the Syrian government’s foreign policy, particularly its relationship with Iran, than in human rights inside Syria.

 

“A December 13, 2006 cable, ‘Influencing the SARG [Syrian government] in the End of 2006,’ indicates that, as far back as 2006—five years before ‘Arab Spring’ protests in Syria—destabilizing the Syrian government was a central motivation of US policy…The cable outlines strategies for destabilizing the Syrian government…

 

“This cable suggests that the US goal in December 2006 was to undermine the Syrian government by any available means [including lying, of course, as we saw when they blamed Assad for using chemical weapons], and that what mattered was whether US action would help destabilize the government, not what other impacts the action might have.

 

“In public the US was in favor of economic reform, but in private the US saw conflict between economic reform and ‘entrenched, corrupt forces’ as an ‘opportunity.’ In public, the US was opposed to ‘Islamist extremists’ everywhere; but in private it saw the ‘potential threat to the regime from the increasing presence of transiting Islamist extremists’ as an ‘opportunity’ that the US should take action to try to increase.

 

“[One US official by the name of William Roebuck] argued that the US should try to destabilize the Syrian government by coordinating more closely with Egypt and Saudi Arabia to fan sectarian tensions between Sunni and Shia, including by the promotion of ‘exaggerated’ fears of Shia proselytizing of Sunnis, and of concern about ‘the spread of Iranian influence’ in Syria in the form of mosque construction and business activity.

 

“By 2014, the sectarian Sunni-Shia character of the civil war in Syria was bemoaned in the United States as an unfortunate development. But in December 2006, the man heading the US embassy in Syria advocated in a cable to the secretary of state and the White House that the US government collaborate with Saudi Arabia and Egypt to promote sectarian conflict in Syria between Sunni and Shia as a means of destabilizing the Syrian government.

 

“At that time, no one in the US government could credibly have claimed innocence of the possible implications of such a policy….No one working for the US government on foreign policy at the time could have been unaware of the implications of promoting Sunni-Shia sectarianism.”[11]

 

The issue then got a little interesting here, most specifically when it comes to analyzing the current Syrian refugee crisis:

 

“It was easy to predict then that, while a strategy of promoting sectarian conflict in Syria might indeed help undermine the Syrian government, it could also help destroy Syrian society….

 

“So, while the sectarian character of the civil war in Syria is now publicly bemoaned in the West, it seems fair to say that in 2006 the US government foreign policy apparatus believed that promoting sectarianism in Syria was a good idea, which would foster ‘US interests’ by destabilizing the Syrian government.”[12]  

"The Wikileaks Files" and Syria. Stop the War

Do people really want to end the war in Syria and the misery of the Syrian people? Then we have to demand the U.S. government do something. It has to stop waging war on Syria. Not to mention the entire Middle East. We have to stop the British government and the German government, the Turkish government, the Israeli government, the Saudi Arabian "so called" government and any other governments that are participating in this U.S. led war against Syria and it's people. But especially the United States government.

We are in a "Stop the War" moment. People ask how? Make the United States government stop it's war.

The Wikileaks Files, The World According to U.S. Empire is a newly released book, evidently the first volume of more to come, that uses experts to collate the most important cables and describe their historical importance.

WikiLeaks first came to prominence in 2010 after the release of 2,325,961 top-secret State Department cables and the "Collateral Murder" video showing gunsight footage of the murder of innocent civilians in Iraq by a US Apache helicopter and it's crew. This book series, The Wikileaks Files, is a "comprehensive analysis of all of the Wikileaks diplomatic cables, assembled by a team of independent foreign policy experts—an essential reference guide to the 21st century’s most explosive diplomatic revelations."

So some people actually went through these "secret cables" and picked out the most important ones while analyzing the overall content. Yes, this is good stuff.

"The book explores in a series of chapters covering the major regions of the world how the US Empire has imposed its will. It reveals how the US imposes its agenda on the world: a new form of imperialism that uses a variety of tactics from torture and military action, to trade deals and “soft power,” in order to expand its influence. It shows the details of the close relationship between government and big business in promoting US goods around the world.: The WikiLeaks Files is the most comprehensive analysis of US State department cables to date. The introduction by Julian Assange—for the first time—exposes the on-going debates on freedom of information, international surveillance and justice."

I haven't ordered the book, yet, but an article titled "Decoding the current war in Syria: The WikiLeaks Files" provides some excerpts from cables related to the Syrian conflict. It comes out at a time when the situation in Syria is growing increasingly desperate amid signs the imperialists are near the end game.

"Dec 13, 2006 Influencing the SARG [Syrian government] in the End of 2006 William Roebuck Chargé d’affaires, US embassy, Damascus We believe Bashar’s [Bashar-al-Assad, Syrian President] weaknesses are in how he chooses to react to looming issues, both perceived and real, such as the conflict between economic reform steps (however limited) and entrenched, corrupt forces, the Kurdish question, and the potential threat to the regime from the increasing presence of transiting Islamist extremists. This cable summarizes our assessment of these vulnerabilities and suggests that there may be actions, statements, and the signals that the USG can send that will improve the likelihood of such opportunities arising.” [Emphasis added]
The WikiLeaks Files"

This cable suggests that the US goal in December 2006 was to undermine the Syrian government by any available means, and that what mattered was whether US action would help destabilize the government, not what other impacts the action might have…In public, the US was opposed to ‘Islamist terrorists’ everywhere; but in private it saw the ‘potential threat to the regime from the increasing presence of transiting Islamist extremists’ as an ‘opportunity’ that the US should take action to try to increase."

Flashback to 2007 when Seymour Hersh published "The Redirection"

"To undermine Iran, which is predominantly Shiite, the Bush Administration has decided, in effect, to reconfigure its priorities in the Middle East. In Lebanon, the Administration has coöperated with Saudi Arabia’s government, which is Sunni, in clandestine operations that are intended to weaken Hezbollah, the Shiite organization that is backed by Iran. The U.S. has also taken part in clandestine operations aimed at Iran and its ally Syria. A by-product of these activities has been the bolstering of Sunni extremist groups that espouse a militant vision of Islam and are hostile to America and sympathetic to Al Qaeda."

http://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2007/03/05/the-redirection

Hersh's report also included:

"The Saudi government, with Washington’s approval, would provide funds and logistical aid to weaken the government of President Bashir Assad, of Syria. The Israelis believe that putting such pressure on the Assad government will make it more conciliatory and open to negotiations."

Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah, also interviewed by Hersh for his 2007 article, perhaps described best the geopolitical gambit the US, Saudi Arabia, and Israel were and are currently attempting to unfold:

"Nasrallah accused the Bush Administration of working with Israel to deliberately instigate fitna, an Arabic word that is used to mean “insurrection and fragmentation within Islam.” “In my opinion, there is a huge campaign through the media throughout the world to put each side up against the other,” he said. “I believe that all this is being run by American and Israeli intelligence.” (He did not provide any specific evidence for this.) He said that the U.S. war in Iraq had increased sectarian tensions, but argued that Hezbollah had tried to prevent them from spreading into Lebanon. (Sunni-Shiite confrontations increased, along with violence, in the weeks after we talked.)"
