The World Turned Upside Down

The World Turned Upside Down

The world is turned upside down; grass eats cows, and Fox,
reports news.

You just don’t know whether to laugh or cry.

Radio Shack is closing 1,100 stores, Staples the nations
largest office supply retailer is closing 225 locations.

J.C. Penny is closing 33 stores laying off 2,000 workers.

IBM is laying off, JP Morgan Chase plans up to 4,000 lay offs.

Sears/Kmart plan to close 100 more stores after a disastrous
Christmas season.

The President told us in his recent State of the Union Address:

“Here are the results of your efforts: The lowest unemployment
rate in over five years. A rebounding housing market. A
manufacturing sector that’s adding jobs for the first time since
the 1990s. More oil produced at home than we buy from the rest
of the world – the first time that’s happened in nearly twenty
years. Our deficits – cut by more than half. And for the first time
in over a decade, business leaders around the world have declared
that China is no longer the world’s number one place to invest;
America is.”

FOR SALE: Suspension Bridge, located in Brooklyn, New York
serious inquiries only!

Winston Smith is a rank amateur in this made for TV reality
“You just don’t invade another country on phony pretext in
order to assert your interests, this is an act of aggression
that is completely "Trumped-Up" in terms of its pretext.

It’s really 19th century behaviour in the 21st century.”
~ John Kerry

John Kerry isn’t a stupid man, but he plays one on TV.

The Vietnam vet who once asked passionately, “How do
you ask a man to be the last man to die for a mistake?”

Now makes a mockery of his office and himself, but he’s
not alone in this group think, or non-think.

“Now if this sounds familiar, it’s what Hitler did back in the
’30s,”Clinton said Tuesday, according to the Long Beach Press-
Telegram.

“All the Germans that were … the ethnic Germans, the Germans
by ancestry who were in places like Czechoslovakia and Romania
and other places, Hitler kept saying they’re not being treated
right. I must go and protect my people, and that’s what’s gotten
everybody so nervous.” ~Hillary Clinton

The events in the Ukraine have nothing to do with Hitler
or ethnicity.

This is about oil and gas, isn’t always about oil and gas
in this country?

After the fall of the Soviet Union, Boris Yeltsin agreed to disband
the Warsaw Pact, after an agreement with Bill Clinton, not to
expand NATO into former Warsaw Pact countries.

What did the US then do?

It expanded NATO into former Warsaw Pact Countries.

Let’s not kid ourselves, the US missile defense is a gun,
pointed at the heart of Russia.

If you look at a map of the Middle East, the US has military
dominance across the region, from Saudi Arabia to Iraq,
in effect building a wall around the world’s major energy
region.

Revolutions in Libya, and Algeria, have put pro-western
governments in power.

It was Hillary Clinton herself who said of Moammar Qaddifi’s death,
“We came, we saw, and he died” as she smiled gleefully, and rubbed
her hands together in satisfaction.

This was the Secretary of State of the United States of America, joyously celebrating murder.

Recent uprisings in Venezuela, plan Columbia’s $9 billion dollar
price tag, is more about protecting oil pipelines, than stopping
the flow of drugs.

Those were $9 billion public dollars spent to protect private interests.

Can you believe it’s a coincidence, another uprising in another
oil transporting state sharing a border with Russia?

While Ukraine does not produce the oil, it is Russia’s highway
to sell its oil on world markets.

It moves US interests closer to Russian borders, it is the partitioning
of Czechoslovakia, but it isn’t Vladimir Putin playing the role of
Hitler in this scenario, it is the United States.

Vidkun Quisling was a petty Norwegian official, before the Second
World War his right-wing philosophy had gained little traction, until
the German invasion.

Quisling was installed in a coup backed by the Nazis as Minister
/President.

The Nazi’s needed Norway to protect their shipping lanes and to
have access to the North Sea.

Quisling was their puppet and his name has become synonymous
with corrupt puppet regimes the world over.

Nouri al-Maliki was installed as Iraqi Prime minister in 2006,
after Ibrahim al-Jaafari failed to meet US objectives.

Nouri al-Maliki was elected of course, but under International law,
elections held or sanctioned, by an invading power, are null and
void.

Nouri al-Maliki was a "Quisling" and the proof is in the
pudding.

In 2007, both Hillary Clinton and Condoleezza Rice,
complained al-Maliki should be removed from office.

al-Maliki responded they were acting were acting as if Iraq
were “their property” they should “come to their senses”
and “respect democracy” but you see, Iraq is our property
as far as our government is concerned and democracy under
Neo-Liberal Capitalism, is a joke.

Hamid Karzi is also a "Quisling" of the highest order.

Arguably, Karzi is one of the most corrupt leaders on the
world stage today, siphoning off billions of US tax dollars.

The US asks no questions of Karzi, as long as he does as
he’s told.

But Karzi’s term is growing short and the US is pressuring
him to sign a new forces agreement and Karzi resists, why?

The agreement exempts US armed forces and agents
from criminal prosecution, but does not exempt Karzi.

He will be on the US hook forever, potentially the next
"Manuel Noriega."

Opium production in Afghanistan, is at record highs under
US occupation, so who should we prosecute?

Today in Afghanistan, investors wish to build a railroad across
the country to make possible the exploitation of Afghanistan’s
mineral riches with an estimated value of $3 trillion dollars.

Karzi claims its closer to $30 trillion dollars, $30 trillion which will
go into the pockets of transnational corporations, and crooked
politicians, leaving Afghanistan, just as poor, and backwards, as
it ever was.

The National Endowment for Democracy is a nonprofit think tank
paid for with $135.5 million of your tax dollars each year.

It is an Orwellian inversion of the word Democracy; it promotes
American corporate interests around the word and doesn’t give
a damn about Democracy.

The NED is affiliated with various right-wing think tanks.

Just a quick list of NED project countries includes Iran, Ecuador,
Venezuela, Ukraine, Georgia, Chechnya, Serbia and Slovakia.

Please note how many of these nations are on Russia’s boarders.

This is what "FASCISM" is all about!

“The common elements of fascism, extreme nationalism, social
Darwinism, the leadership principle, elitism, anti-liberalism,
anti-egalitarianism, anti-democracy, intolerance, glorification
of war, the supremacy of the state and anti-intellectualism.”
~ Ian Adams

What does this have to do with jobs?

“There are no exceptions to this rule — fascism comes only when
the working class shows complete incapacity to take into its own
hands the fate of society.” ~ Leo Trotsky

“WAR IS PEACE,”

“FREEDOM IS SLAVERY,”

“IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH.”

~George Orwell
