Since i know some people in New York read this, i thought i'd give a Destination Event Suggestion ~ Form Of: David Rees in Greenpoint for a free engagement at Word Books. Buy a copy of both books, whose royalties go towards landmine removal.
I note that the US is having an unrequited honeymoon with our new nuclear bedfellows in the World's Largest Democacy™, India. Thanks for blue-balling America back to dealing with that clusterbombing hooker in Tel Aviv, Singh.
Additions to th' War™ Playlist Player include a whole pack of cute Iraqui kids and the Special Opz guys they tag around with, footage of a Predator straffing insurgents, and the usual fresh-baked rapes and IEDs.
In our ever-expanding practical DIY playlist one may now find How-To's on pen guns, potato guns, ascetylene bombs, suppository delivery of DMT, mushroom picking, and proper play of the resurgent pre-teen parlour game "Choke Each Other Into Unconsciousness" in P0st-911 USofA.
I was told it was one of your officers that i was watching pepper spray a child with whom he was toying in a video on YouTube. Before i make any untoward remarks, i would like to make sure that on the night of October the 14th 2007 a member of your command was involved in the detention/child abuse of Shelwanda Riley, 15.
Dissenting Amerikkka's tax-evading Nor'Easterners, the Browns, finnally get caught with no bloodshed after months of fire-bombless cat and mouse with US Marshalls sent by the Treasury on behalf of the IRS. See, it's good to be rich.

Probably the same thing. We're all White here, right?
Rev. Dr. Ahmadinejad is an obnoxiously hard to defend Executive Branche-Man, so this past week i must admit of a certain knee-jerk urge to give props of some sort to the public face of my beloved (pre'hap betrothed, anon) Shi'ia Persia.
Whatever. I don't know if that's what he said. Rev Stuttery McRamblesome there is perfectly in keeping with a contemporary speaker. This ain't the Gilded Age. Dubya's verbal tragedies are encoded at DARPA and filtered through Cheney before he mangles them into "speaches"; Ahmadinejad has to decode whatever the Khomeniacracy flips him to compliment his sportswear ouvre.
Fair Friday morning t' ye'all, fellow Citizen Workers. I spent a little time last night between night tremors updating the Operation: Enduring GangRape Player. I even threw in a very touching vid from a soldier of his buddy playing football with some kids in Tukrit (or some backlot in LA, can't recall which). I felt it provided a good countertensioning between the videos on women prisoner treatment and the friendly fire POV snuff. The new opener is "Guernica In Iraq", an AMV from the WarFan communitee.
Renting: It's A War Thang, Baby

RE; FF POV: In all fairness to the US aviator(s) involved in the above archived incident in which a British convoy was introduced to The Lightening Round, the fault clearly lies with C&C. The guy asked his wingman to confirm, and then nagged him to double back on it, then re-confirmed twice with the tower. They twice (at least) erroneously reported no coalition activity or presence in the area, chiming in just after his second run. Sounds to me like he felt it coming and did his best to avoid it; the way he cracks when they describe the "yellow cabs" of the UK armour he had just vapourised smacks of deja vous.
Besides, this is BP's war. Fuck the Redcoats. If they pulled more shifts in the air and drove like White Folks they wouldn't have to duck so much.
I just want to note that if Greenspan is coming out of retirement just to poke strawmen and soundbite about the Iraq Adventure revolving around oil, he's got more free time and less grasp of American industrial economics than i had thought.
In honor of the Anti-MOVE Mumia Haterz Society™, here's the brand-neue Mumia Abu Jamal Viewer. Updated with 5 fresh vids, layered on top for easy consumption. Check the Pam Africa vids at the end of this 40+ episode playlist, where there's an update on Mumia's case as well.

Sri Doktor Mumia Abu Jamal's words from death row come via PrisonRadio.Org and are video mixed by Suryu, aKa ThierSpacer Ismael. /Props!
As threatened in commentary i left on and inspired by this post by Sri Lo, i present the above playlist of videos relating to CIA traffic of drugs, guns, perhaps slaves, definately money, and inteligence information as a memorial to the reporter who lost his life for investigating it.
Or maybe he commited suicide.
Maybe. Hey, it's OK; look, here's some indy reporting:

Notable holes in Mosaic coverage are, i'm told, the paucity of Turkish, Farsi, and Hebrew sources. So here's some Hebrew.

Shi'ite Persian Props code:
I will never regret running the above playlist as much as i do. It's important to attempt to educate peeps as to the very real differences between places the US/UK/Dutch imperium run game and the places they can't. Persia is in the later catagory. For a very brief time it was under UK/Haj control, ending with a hot-potatoe pass to the US, who quickly ended thier democracy with imposed rule by the Shah.
This did not stand, and will not be allowed to occure again in this millenium. The Islamic Republic of Iran is a first-world superpower, one that successfully repelled 10 years of US-UK backed agression by our thugocratic ally Sadaam. Chemical weapons made by Dutch subsidiaries of Dow-Corning were funnelled to the front lines via Israeli arms merchants, and Iranian guardsmen died by the hundreds on thier own border under clouds of mustard gas. They came back with cameras and gasmasks. In the end, sheer guts and Kolenshikovs won out AGAIN over duplicity, war crimes and misfiring high-tech weapons with US serial numbers. Millions were killed.
Millions, people. That's a magnitude of scaling that you need to keep in your head when considering a possible invasion of Iran. You need to cross-reference it with thier Russian cooperative projects, and realize that this is the re-establishment of an old arraingment that kept the Caspian dynamically self-contained during epochs of external turmoil. It's called mutually benificial trade partnership and defence. The missile systems of the Russian Federation are 21st century refinements of those the Soviets had, which contrary to popular myth were capable of neutralizing any US attack. No, we don't have saucer technology, kids. Know why?
Because flying saucers from alien civilizations have never come to planet Terra.
This is because they don't exist. Oh, don't get me wrong. People have created them, and there very well may be mag-lev flying saucers in hangers at Roswell, but you should try to operate a hovercraft prior to thinking about possible mag-lev saucer action. Traction and drag are much more desirable than one would initially think. So, since that's out, and the Iranian satelite net is up, and our Stealth fleet is a black hole for research money and can be shot out of the sky by Serbs, and even Her Majerstray's Wave-Rulers stop waiving the rules just this side of Iranian territorial waters, what chance do you see our battered and broke military having with a unilateral Blitzkreig on Tehran?
None. The real stumbling block is the Chinese, of course, who have given thier one warning on the subject. Nukes are a no-go against nations bordering the OG superpower and worldwide gunpowder monopoly cartel headquarters, the People's Republic of China.
Target: Syria. I hope i'm wrong, but this looks like a misdirect ahead of a false flag, and the next logical target has ALWAYS been Syria. Israel wants it. Lebanon half-wants it. The Arab world has always wanted it; Syria is the original Semetic nation-state. Jordan just wants the rest of the middle east to STFU, maybe flood? Iraq wants to die in peace, maybe flood. Palestine wants to eat, maybe flood, exist some. Britain has what they wanted; all the oil and none of the security detail, as well as access to the Alaskan fields and proper semi-centenial draining of the US Colonies' Imaginary Treasury Reserves via the auspicious perenial perniciousness of Lord Halifax's Chartered Privateering Company.
The Ba'ath Party was built on the misuse of the words and dreams of one Michel Aflaq, a Syrian-born Greek Orthodox scholar and Pan-Arab populist. Having fled his beloved Syria when that country's co-opted Baath Party led to the current dictatorial dynasty, he was heralded in his new home of Iraq as proof that Sadaam's Ba'athists were The One True Party™.
Sadaam: one of our more killingest patsies!
Web of Deciet code:
Mssr. Aflaq's protestations were not broadcast, but he was allowed to live out his remaining years, trying to get Arabs from all nations to work together for the greater glory of Arabism and championing free speach and human rights.
His failure is notable because of its bitter paradox as well as his unsinkably good nature.

We have no subs yet. Srry. I still laugh though; they're visually off the hook, chain and meter. My current theory is that it's set in one of the migrant worker "towns" set up in the OTHER Palestinian Apartied system by the Saudi Arabians and Emerites. These nasty little company towns were the model for KBR (Halliburton) when building the Green Fortress in Baghdad. Seperate but not-equal is the rule for the disenfranchised workers of the world. The Ba'athist references obvious in the Teacher's character and the fact of Kenny's headwrap have more sting if i'm on the right track here...

Speaking of thangs Iraqui and American Monolingual Handicapability, some fresh vids have been added to the cornocopia of insanity that is:
Renting: A War Joint
code:
Additions include an American GI parotting Iraqui (looks like someone's being tricked into saying something they probably wish wasn't on YouTube), a couple of n00b IED strikes, and an IED/VBIED training demo from the Insurgents' SoCOM video game.
I guess nobody else has noticed the IDF incursion in Nablus. Israel has been wrecking the West Bank city for the past 4 days, since the Palestinian infighting came to a screeching halt in Mecca last week. I'm not implying that the two are related.
The Electronic Intifada is one of my fave feeds; they never fail in depressing the shit out of me with some YHWH-forsaken tale of inhumanity. The Palestinian people have nothing to lose by risking life and limb to get word out about what goes on behind the Wall Of Shame, since they're all targeted for genocide anyway.
It's Treblenka in slow-motion, going strong since 1948. Israel's anti-Semitism knows no bounds.
So i made it up to myself by adding some new fun facts & DIY to the Functional Intructional playlist, including an intro to circuit bending.
Functional Instructitainmentismae code:
Also, regardez vous si vous plais, important new additions to the Renting In Iraq saga, most probably with a shelf-life. Notably probably effemeral are the CNN Al-Quiada funding story and the "leaked" footage of a US fighter striking British troops.
Aluminium Azrael
Renting: A War Joint code:
I added a short clip depicting a British Tornado fighter-bomber striking an Iraqi position. Here's the frame of interest.
HMMMMMMM.
I just assumed it was a laser-guided bomb, until i noticed another user had uploaded it with a title asking, "Is this a laser?" I watched that one, and thought that it had been altered. Then i watched this one again, which doesn't make mention of laser guidance or much of anything.
According to Wikipedia, which i'll admit is NOT Jane's, the Tornado carries Paveway laser-guided bombs, which are all unpowered, meaning no contrail. So....w/e. I don't think we're at laser stage yet for actual weaponry, although we're close.
Man, we suck. No wonder you chickenshits don't trust yourselves with direct democracy. I have bad news, though: your current ruling elite is rich, and the rich HATE YOU.
I'm still awaiting footage of IRI's weekend space-shot, which evidently saw The Islamic Republic of Iran put a payload into orbit on it's own rocket. Russia had popped last year's satellite into orbit, and a mere turn around the sun later they've done it for themselves.

This goes hand in hand with comments on the subject in the BBC. I imagine the British press will be a little more even-handed on issues of Middle Eastern concern for a while, since they're leaving Occupation: Enduring Our Operations along with my Danish cousins. I'm sure the aebleskivers will be missed.
Pre-Querry: I wrote someone, i was all, like: "Hey, saw your comment in Gen Clark's blog, and just have to give props to you for being one of the few Citizens who can still follow the $. Here's a serious question (i am being sincere in the above statement, mind you, so look at this as a desparate cry for help; ie, lie if you don't know the answer, plz):
Who is Cheney's Boss? It doesn't seem like the guy's gotten particularly rich, or that $ motivates him, personally. I always have gotten the impression that he is very close to the "inner circle", along with Caspar and Henry and the rest of the Plummers, and he has definately made money for war profiteers hand over fist in his long and disgusting career. However, his own books are pretty sparse, not clean, mind you; just not as bling as one would imagine. He's the only Haliburton board member to not make a 500 percent margin on his latest handworks, you know? He works for another, or for another reason. He's a lawyer shooting bulldog, but for who?
Vote Citizen j in 2008, BTW. "
Dunno if they'll answer, so if anyone could, i'd totally appreciate it. I've been trying to figure it since Bush 1, and even the SourceWatch folk can't really help. - Cj_08
In retrospect, i should have said "whom". For Whom Doth Dick Pillage All, Always, Anon? Is Halliburton a domestic parent or something...else?
"In 1914, native Texan Herman Brown was given eighteen mules in lieu of back wages for construction work done in his hometown of Belton, which he used to enter the construction business on his own. In 1919 his brother-in-law, Dan Root, advanced him money for working capital, and the company was named Brown and Root, Incorporated. In 1922 Herman's younger brother, George Rufus Brown, joined the firm. Dan Root, a prosperous Central Texas cotton farmer, died in 1929. The paving of dirt roads and building of steel bridges for municipal and county governments in Central Texas led the firm to a successful joint bid in 1936 to construct the Marshall Ford Dam (now Mansfield Dam) on the Colorado River. A 1940 contract to construct the Corpus Christi Naval Air Station was the first of their big federal war projects. The brothers formed the Brown Shipbuilding Company in 1942 and constructed more than 350 vessels for the navy. The shipyard had a labor force of 25,000 and won the Army-Navy E and a presidential citation."
Read Democracy Now!'s Josh Wolf Interview, and then wonder why this is even a story. Dude's witholding evidence from a grand jury. Sorry, Josh, you're part of the problem. That's why you're still in jail.
