“The Nutters are in Charge.”
Binoy Kampmark via darcy, Monday, May 13 2019, 10:20pm
Inimitable to a fault, former Australian Prime Minister Paul Keating had been fairly quiet on his party’s policies till an impromptu press intervention last week. Catching two journalists of the ABC off-guard, Keating took little time to land a few blows against Australia’s foreign and domestic intelligence security officers. They had, in Keating’s view, “lost their strategic bearings”. The security agencies were effectively “running foreign policy”; when such matters eventuate, only one conclusion can be reached: “the nutters are in charge.” (story and 1 image)

Integrity Forged in Cages
Chris Hedges via claire, Monday, May 13 2019, 10:06pm
Chris Hedges delivered this talk to 27 graduating students who were formerly incarcerated -- several of whom he taught in prison -- and their families at Rutgers University on Friday. The ceremony was held by the Mountainview Program at Rutgers, which helps students complete their degrees at Rutgers after they take college courses inside prisons through the New Jersey Scholarship and Transformative Education in Prisons Consortium (NJ-STEP) program.

SATAN – A Convenient Invention
drew, Monday, May 13 2019, 9:43pm
Conflict, greed, war, murder, rape and oppression (slavery) is recorded throughout known history and it is safe to say that such conflicts probably began with neolithic tribal conflicts over hunting grounds and other food resources. So it began with conflicts over necessary resources and what has changed today? Absolutely nothing! So much for the MYTH of social advancement and modern sophistication, as behaviours match those of our neolithic ancestors, grunt, grunt!

Is America Ready for John Bolton’s War With Iran?
Scott Ritter, Sunday, May 12 2019, 10:23pm
Recently dispatched B-52s and ships are an act of theatrical bravado that ignore the real threat.

The Eagle, the Bear and the Dragon
Pepe Escobar via james, Sunday, May 12 2019, 10:09pm
Once upon a time, deep into the night in selected campfires across the deserts of Southwest Asia, I used to tell a fable about the eagle, the bear and the dragon – much to the amusement of my Arab and Persian interlocutors.

Bolton Playing Trump Like a Fiddle on Iran
Ann Wright via jane, Sunday, May 12 2019, 8:14pm
It matters not that Bolton plays Trump so easily, the world is aware; it's a demonstration of how a sociopath deceives an IGNORANT, INEPT, no-account president suffering from NPD, but NOTE that both are text book psychiatric cases. If war comes of Bolton's and Pompeo's transparent, malign efforts -- with Israel pulling all the strings in the background -- which nation would be the instigator (planned) of any war with Iran, these efforts will FAIL as Russia and China today support their allies. So if it's war Israel and America want, WAR they will get, but on a far greater scale than they anticipate. (story and 2 images)

Mike Pompeo Pissing in the Wind in Iraq
Robert Fisk via stella, Sunday, May 12 2019, 7:28pm
Mike Pompeo went to put the thumbscrews on the Iraqi government this week. No more electrical power from Iran, he told them, and make sure those pesky Iranians don’t attack our boys in that great American base in Iraq which Trump was boasting about. The New York Times numbingly told us that his trip was “shrouded in secrecy” – if only it had been. Then at least the US secretary of state could have paid a visit to Iran’s most important supporter in the Iraqi parliament. (story and 1 image)

Dollar Hegemony – Key Purpose Behind Illegal “Regime Change” in Venezuela
Peter Koenig via cyd, Saturday, May 11 2019, 11:53pm
Indeed, the cumbersome attempts by Washington to STEAL Venezuela's precious and huge OIL reserves are the real issue behind the transparent, media-hyped (failed) coup attempts in Venezuela and all the LIES that issue from the US propaganda/media apparatus. American corporate and banker ruling elites are panic-stricken that their international PARASITIC based economy is about to crumble, as indeed it will, it's only a matter of a very short time. And there's nothing other than a full fledged war with Russia and China, likely to win, according to the Rand corporation, that could alter the course/outcome of utter ruin for the USA.

INJUSTICE in Plain Sight
lex, Friday, May 10 2019, 8:27pm
In your face is the travesty unfolding regarding the persecution of Julian Assange for simply exposing U.S. war and other crimes against humanity, and exposing the intrigues of bought puppet U.S. politicians, yet few are outraged. So where does it lead? Criminals in high places prosper and expand their criminal enterprises/agendas. There are no excuses for cowardice, not supporting justice and opposing PROVEN criminals.

Yahweh’s Trojan Horse into the Gentile City
Laurent Guyénot via james, Friday, May 10 2019, 1:40am
I concluded an earlier article by what I regard as the most important “revelation” of modern biblical scholarship, one that has the potential to free the Western world from a two-thousand-year-old psychopathic bond: the jealous Yahweh was originally just the national god of Israel, repackaged into “the God of Heaven and Earth” during the Babylonian Exile, as part of a public relations campaign aimed at Persians, then Greeks and ultimately Romans. The resulting biblical notion that the universal Creator became Israel’s national god at the time of Moses, is thus exposed as a fictitious inversion of the historical process: in reality, it is the national god of Israel who, so to speak, impersonated the universal Creator at the time of Ezra—while remaining intensely ethnocentric.

Are You Ready for a Worse Dystopia than 1984?
Paul Craig Roberts via jaxie, Friday, May 10 2019, 1:14am
The concerns about robots and artificial intelligence have come from scientists who express worries about killer robots with super intelligence taking over from dumber humans with less capabilities. Possibly, but it is more likely that these kind of concerns stem from an incorrect model or understanding of mind, consciousness, and creativity. I do wish that Michael Polanyi were still with us to give us his take on our proclivity to attribute intelligence to machines.

'D' is for Dictatorship NOT Democracy
John W. Whitehead via jess, Friday, May 10 2019, 12:48am
“When a population becomes distracted by trivia, when cultural life is redefined as a perpetual round of entertainments, when serious public conversation becomes a form of baby-talk, when, in short, a people become an audience and their public business a vaudeville act, then a nation finds itself at risk; a culture-death is a clear possibility.” — Professor Neil Postman, Amusing Ourselves to Death: Discourse in the Age of Show Business

Natural-Unnatural
jane, Tuesday, May 7 2019, 6:37pm
Interesting binary opposition no doubt as it involves the natural, ie NATURE, which has always been my guide NOT political correctness or any other IMPOSED (by the media), perverse cultural convention. And so viewing Rachel Maddow's, a dyke, recent diatribes regarding Venezuela and lunatic war hawk John Bolton, does not surprise me in the least – but allow me to qualify my attitude on homosexuality first.

The Art of War and the Result
lex, Sunday, May 5 2019, 9:27pm
According to Sun Tzu's classic, a “war is won or lost before the first battle begins,” to render it properly into English. Indeed, that is the case if strategic planning and tactics are superior to the enemy, which aspects are also outlined in Sun Tzu's classic treatise on War.

Pompeo: “My Faith in Jesus Christ Makes a Real Difference”
Pompeo says God may have sent Trump to save Israel from Iran
“As a Christian, I certainly believe that’s possible,” said Mr Pompeo….”I am confident that the Lord is at work here,”
Pence, a Catholic Evangelical who almost became a priest: “I made a commitment to Christ.”
