George Washington may have been a poor field commander but he was a wise politician. When departing the White House he advised us to avoid entangling foreign alliances.
World war one was the result of a spider web of European alliances. So complicated no one can figure it all out.
World War two began as a result of the UK commitment to protect Poland. When Hitler invaded Poland England was honor bound to come to their aid.
The rest of that story was Churchill and Roosevelt sold out Poland to ‘Uncle Joe’ Stalin at Yalta. With friends like that… Honor was never in the bulldog’s nor FDR’s vocabulary.
Not having learned from history, we are now guaranteeing protection to NATO countries from the ogre du jour Russia and its evil leader Vlad. Read the rest of this entry »

The Vietnamese arms sales embargo was just a US and US puppet thing. Others, notably Russia, could sell all the market could stand. We can’t have that can we?
This new friend will have to pay the price in being in the front lines against China. How effective they will be against a fellow communist entity, only time will tell. The Vietnamese aren’t stupid.It seems to me they could easily play this to theirs and China’s advantage.
Joining NATO, receiving foreign aid or being a friend to the US is not all rainbows and unicorns. There are usually mandatory arms purchase requirements, accepting a US military presence, allowing CIA stations and directives on making the correct noises in the press and UN.
This deal is not made out of kindness of the heart.
Be seeing you

From Webster’s Seventh Collegiate Dictionary 1971 Edition. A well worn gift from the recently deceased Jeanne O.
Steal:
1. to take the property of another
1b. to take away by force or unjust means
Sounds like taxes to me, I like this definition of taxes
The fine you pay for the crime of being useful and productive.
Taxpayers roughly follow Pareto’s law (no matter what low information protestors and lying politicians say)– the top 20% do 80% of the work. If you belong to a club you have likely experienced Pareto’s law.
Americans Earning Six Figures or More Pay Nearly 80% of Individual Income Taxes

Many like Philip Giraldi and Pat Buchanan are predicting the death or regeneration of the Republican party/Conservative movement due to the efforts of Donald Trump. Here for example.
I don’t see it.
Trump talks about a lot of things. Immigration-building a wall. Lost jobs-bring factory work back home/punishing those who send work off-shore. Military expenditure-eliminating NATO/bring troops back from developed countries or making them pay for our presence. Iraq-a mistake. Russia-let it do some heavy lifting and work with Putin. Run this country like a business. Read the rest of this entry »

I have just started reading Gladio-NATOs Dagger at the Heart of Europe by Richard Cottrel. The author uses an interesting, new to me term.
Underground organizations were organized in WW II to sabotage German war efforts. These groups had weapons and materials cached throughout Europe to facilitate their efforts. The French underground made famous to us in WW II movies would be one.
After the war these groups were not disbanded but sustained by the CIA and others to thwart any socialist or communist uprisings. Gladio was the name of the Italian operation but has come to represent all such organizations. Just as ‘Kleenex’ has come to mean ‘tissue’. Read the rest of this entry »

It was Russian heritage, not Russian troops, that sent Serbia into Russia’s arms. They are ethnic Russians that have longed for the motherland. Eastern Ukraine wants in also. Western Ukraine not so much.
The prime mover of the recent split is US meddling. Our state department sent people in to rabble rouse against the democratically elected government. If one listens to Victoria Neuland’s F* the EU phone call one can hear her and her compadre discussing whom they want to install as Ukrainian President and VP. Neocon style democracy in action.
The area has been in Russia’s sphere of influence for hundreds of years and Putin wants to keep his warm weather port. Hence, the troops. Who can blame him? NATO expanded right up to his front door. The NATO that the US pays for. Remember when NATO ran out of ammo in Libya because the member nations hadn’t ponied up?

The House has passed H.R. 4133, an AIPAC designed, Israel firster dream bill. Ron Paul and John Dingell are the only reps that voted no in a limited debate, quick vote session. There must be enough Muslims in Michigan to negate AIPAC. Hmm… they are not so bad after all! The bill, in a nutshell, obligates US to keeping the Israel defenses up to date, supplying a $1Billion missile defense system and has language that supports Israel’s membership in NATO. We are of course obligated to defend fellow NATO members in time of (Iranian) war. A major reason for the bill no doubt. Defend Israel by ourselves because the US essentially is NATO. The other members ran out of ammo playing in the Libyan sandbox. We are to veto any resolutions, presumably the UN variety, critical of Israel. The validity of the criticism is apparently irrelevant. Demand your Senators to kill this. Mine won’t. Casey and Toomey are empire builders and not unfamiliar with the taste of Israeli boot leather. The House once again kneels before President Netanyahu. No doubt the other 101 lackeys in Washington will also. See Philip Giraldi here.

I was about to visit Michael Gerson after his last tirade but that would get boring. Gerson’s obedient regurgitating of the Neo-Con war party dogma gets boring fast. Richard Cohen came to his rescue last week. Here. Cohen makes many accusations and I will try to intelligently respond where I can.
Cohen says RP would have let Nazi Germany take over Europe because he is “isolationist”. There are some that believe that if the U.S. had not entered WWI there would have been a stalemate. Read the rest of this entry »

Peter Dale Scott contends that Norway’s Breivik did not act alone, contrary to the official explanation. This is an extremely deep and convoluted story and I have just scraped the surface, but here goes.
The opener:
Mr, Scott begins by examining the composition of Breivik’s texts and videos as well as his use of an ammonium nitrate bomb. His contention that Breivik could not finance nor produce the quality of work by himself. Read the rest of this entry »
