Let the games begin

I like Jill Stein or Gary Johnson a lot, but I'm not insane, with or without my vote, they are not going to win. If you can suggest some reality-based path to a victory for either of these, I'm listening. If not, unpalatable as it may be, it's either Trump or Clinton. We know the horror we're in store for with Clinton. With Trump we have the Republican-primary performance, his New Yorker-style bluntness-verging-on-rudeness, and the establishment smear campaign of unsavory conjurations -- partisan exaggerations, amusing but unpersuasive to all but the Kool-Aid saturated (of both the left and the right).
What a spectacle!
And now for a bit of cynicism. If we have to get perpetually screwed by a phony, corrupt, incompetent, self-absorbed political class obsequiously in thrall to the 1% et al, the least they can do is up the entertainment value. And this electoral season we are being treated to a star-studded American Electoral Circus Spectacular: The American Presidency Reality Show starring Reality-Show Award Winner Donald "Make America Great Again" Trump vs Neoliberal Blood-drenched Anti-Christ-with-a-Vagina Death Machine Hillary "Sniper-fire" Clinton. The Celebrity "Death Match" of the Millennium. A splendid time is guaranteed for all.
Who wins? Who cares? Just give me my beer, my pizza, my 55 inch HD flatscreen, -- my Vasoline ration -- and let the games begin. Bïtchin'.

9/11: Saudis, Israelis, and Zionist captivity

From:  Sens. Graham, McCain Unveil Plan to Weaken Saudi 9/11 Bill http://news.antiwar.com/2016/11/30/sens-graham-mccain-unveil-plan-to-weaken-saudi-911-bill/ My reply to pensword re Saudi/Israeli involvement in 9/11: I agree, both the Saudi and Israeli govts were involved: the Saudis in financing and the Israelis in "shepherding". A separate, overarching, and much more difficult matter however, is the subversion of the US govt by the Israelis. The Neocons -- Israeli agents -- currently control the Executive(Trump may boot them, we shall see.), and AIPAC -- Israeli agents -- has for many years maintained ownership of the House and Senate. Breaking out of Zionist "captivity" is a yuuuge challenge. Consider, its mention is taboo in the MSM media, dangerous in the alternate media, and a life destroying, career-killing offense in politics, media, academia, commerce,... hell, across the spectrum of civil and cultural participation. The Jews have once aga...

The (((truth)))) you are not allowed to tell.

Below is my reply to a “Jackie Chiles for president”  comment to this article on antiwar.com: https://news.antiwar.com/2024/05/16/zelensky-blames-the-world-for-russias-kharkiv-offensive/ Here is the "Jackie Chiles for president" comment: "Anyone that's not Russian on here, or paid by the Chinese? This place is scary, can we at least add a few pacifists, Nazi's, nihilist's and communists to balance the dialogue? RFK? I'm not even sure what he is. I'm against senseless wars and wasted national budgets to fund a war for elitist interests too but not at the cost of a world run by Xi and Putin. If you cheer lead those clowns, seek help. "What kind of an idiot are you? Where does this insane hostility towards Xi and Putin come from? ... that you've swallowed hook line and sinker?" ... and below is my response.  The issue which provokes my preserving and publishing the comment here is the series of triple parentheses, which are indications that...

Let the punishment fit the crime

For five-thousand years the Jews have crapped on everyone they have encountered and been logically and predictably despised and chased off or killed. THAT is the cause of anti-Semitism. The cause for modern Islamophobia or Islam-hatred on the other hand is that the Muslims are fighting back against the Jewish criminal invasion of Palestine. The Zionist Jews have invaded, murdered, ethnically-cleansed the Palestinians from Palestinian lands and they have lied so successfully about these crimes that the citizens of the advanced West have come to believe that the Jews are all innocent and the Muslims are all evil. It's a total lie. A half century of propaganda notwithstanding, it's a lie. The Palestinians and their Muslim fellows object to Zionist crimes and seek rightly and justly to defend themselves. Anti-Nazism is just fine, right?, because the Nazis were criminals, right? Well, apply the same logic to Zionist criminals, and anti-Zionism, like anti-Nazism, becomes just...
