2.5.11

Usama bin Frozen

What a crock.

Usama bin Laden died of kidney failure in 2000.  He wasn't even alive when 9/11 happened.  They've been keeping him on ice for the day they needed to roll out the Big Baddy.

How convenient that he was shot in the head (can't identify the face), found in Pakistan (now the US has an excuse to attack yet another country), and the US can now go on 'worldwide alert' for 'terrorist attacks' by who? Oh yeah, al Qaeda.  The very same folks we've been arming and supporting in Libya.  How convenient that his corpse was dumped in the sea before any forensics could be performed.  How convenient that it now takes the spotlight off of Obama's forged birth certificate and gives him a little wiggle room.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!  What a freakin' farce.

Bin Laden was a well-known CIA asset.  His family lived in Houston, Texas, on Memorial Drive near Beltway 8.  The night of 9/11, Houston police were providing personal protection for the bin Laden family.  They were privately escorted to the airport the next day, where they flew out to Saudi Arabia, when all domestic flights were grounded.  At least for us tax-paying scum.  Some time before 9/11, Usama was in a hospital in Dubai, receiving dialisys because he was having acute renal failure.  He died in December 2000.


If there are ANY terror attacks on the US at this point, and I mean ANY as in bottle rockets at the county fair, then it is ONLY the US attacking the American people.  And notice that I separate US from American people.  Al the boogy men they can drag out are all creations of the CIA.  Every last one of them...including Usama bin Chillin'.

The whole thing reeks of a blood sacrifice to celebrate Wilhelm's new breed-stock.

So, let's take stock.  One man's life cost billions of dollars, millions of lives (in 4 countries...how many US soldiers have been killed?), has brought the entire world to the brink of global thermonuclear war...and they dump the body in the ocean before anyone can take a look-see?

I smell a big, nasty rat, and it ain't bin Laden's decade-old corpse.  The rat is in Washington.  Actually, 545 of them.  It's all complete and utter BS, folks.  After all, if what the US has been destroying one-third of the world to do is get bin Laden, then 1) why dump his body in the ocean so fast, and 2) how come the troops aren't being demobilized back home post-haste?  In fact, they've upped the ante now.  Things are EVEN WORSE since bin Laden is...well, dead again.

So what the hell has the US been doing over there all this time?

On top of all that, hasn't anyone stopped to think?  By killing (again) bin Laden and targeting Qaddafi and his family, then the leadership (I use that term very loosly) of the US becomes fair game.  If you shoot at the king of one country, then that country has every right to shoot at your king.

And did I mention that all this conveniently happened just in time for the beginning of the Monday news cycle?  Or how about the fact that the whole story of his 'death' sounds like a made-for-TV movie?  Or how about the part where a bunch of war-weary soldiers who've watched their buddies get mowed down for 11 years stopped to take time to 'handle the body according to Islamic tradition.'

Sorry, if I keep thinking about this, I'm going to hurl all over my computer.  This is so much bullshit, even Obama has outdone himself, and that's a LOT of bullshit!  It's a periwigged pile of puking putrid pucilanimous poppycock, and people are 'gathing at the White House and Ground Zero to celebrate?'

Are people REALLY that dumb?

And wasn't Usama supposed to be cowering in a cave?  Some 'cave.'  We should all be so lucky.  And what were US troops doing in an 'upper-class' neighborhood in Pakistan?  Is that the unmistakable aroma of RAT I smell?

What a bunch of flippin' idiots.

So, what else is on TeeVee?

31.3.11

Re-Branding Terror

Have you noticed it?

We went to war in Iraq and Afghanistan to fight 'al Qaeda.'  Now, al Qaeda is our friend.  Yup, they're helping out in Libya, trying to get rid of Qaddafi, who if I remember correctly, was the mastermind of the Lockerbie mess.

Doesn't that make al Qaeda and Qaddafi best friends?

And what about bin Laden?  He was the Man of the Moment 10 years ago.  We blew up three countries (Pakistan too) trying to find him.  But, he just kept making tapes and changing his appearance.  Last time I looked, there's been about six or seven bin Ladens.  It's kind of like James Bond.  Just plug in a new one when the old one dies.

Maybe bin Laden is hiding in Libya?  He's shacked up with Qaddafi now and they're taking over the world, Pinky!  But wait!  Bin Laden was in charge of al Qaeda, right?  He was the Ace of Spades, if I remember all those stupid card monikers and color alerts.  Hell, the Number Three guy (who I guess was the Queen of Spades) in now the new Number One, and he had dinner at the Pentagon a couple of weeks after 9/11.  Really.

Maybe all this bullshit is why Judge Judy and what...a half dozen reporters now?...all start babbling on camera at some point.  They just can't keep all the cognitive dissonance at bay.  It's kind of like that scene from "Bruce Almighty," when Jim Carrey puts the hex on the anchor dude, and he starts blathering like an idiot.  Not that it's much different from normal, everyday news casting.

So, let's see if I can get this straight.  Oceania is our enemy.  Oceania has always been our enemy.  Or was it Eurasia?  I can't remember now.  I need a quick trip to the MiniTruth to get my head rebooted.

Think about it.  Al Qaeda (The Source, in case your Arabic is rusty) was our mortal enemy for a decade, and we bombed three countries into the Stone Age to get rid of them.  Then Qaddafi, who was re-branded after the Reagan Years to be mostly benign, is now re-branded again into the Boogie Man du Jour for putting down some protests, just like Obama does in front of the White House, or everyone does at G20 meetings.  So, USA, Inc. invades his country completely without provocation (under international and US law, but who pays attention to law any more), ostensibly on the side of the rebels (though really it's on the side of oil mega-corps).  Then, al Qaeda joins in on the side of the rebels, as well.  And NO ONE noticed??!!

Where are the blaring headlines, a la W. R. Hearst?
Our Enemy Is Now Our Friend!
Maybe I missed some important memo.  Understandable, of course.  I'm 12,000 miles away from the office and stone tablets ain't cheap to mail.  But come on!  Just back in January, we were drone-bombing western Pakistan to root out al Qaeda.  Did they make a payment to someone?  Did they agree to help get the oil for Daddy Warbux?  Or have I just been in a coma for ten years and missed the whole re-branding campaign?  Hell, the US is even GIVING al Qaeda guns and bullets now!

Isn't that how al Qaeda started?  The CIA armed them using the Iran Contra drug money so they would trot over and kick butt on Iran, because the US didn't like who they put in after the CIA got rid of the CIA's first implant (the shah).  Then they got blamed for 9/11, so we crashed their party.  Now, they're working for US again.

It really feels like I'm Winston Smith, banging away on my diary for some future human beings who will never exist, because the Thought Police are coming soon and Richard Burton will pop in to do a number on my brain  so that, I too, will Love Big Brother.

The next time you are watching the nightly propaganda machine and the anchor starts uttering pure gibberish, like Judge Judy and the gang, just remember...their Room 101 sessions haven't quite kicked in yet.  Give them a little time and some Victory Gin and they'll come around.

You almost need a playbook to keep up with who's shafting who these days.

We;re at war with Eastasia.  We've always been at war with Eastasia.  And choco rations have increased this month due to production increases.  Double plus good!

It's enough to make me want to find a camera and start babbling.
