CAPITALIST TROJAN INFECTING THE WEST THEFT OF HERITAGE WHEREVER Europeans are invaded, raped, gang-raped, brutalised, home invaded, surrounded by foreign settlements, carjacked, murdered, vilified, dispossessed, politically suppressed, persecuted and prosecuted: it is by the ruling capitalists and their bureaucrats, who rob Europeans of their heritage, aided by the capitalist-owned media and capitalist-sponsored, self-serving, lying, Western intelligentsia. CAPITALISM that exploits, divests and endangers all Europeans, assisted by capitalist-sponsored and disseminated FALSE IDEOLOGIES of:  'liberalism', 'progressivism', 'democracy' (that is rule by capitalists and their economists), and the illusion of 'individual liberty'; in conjunction with a sustained campaign of promoting entirely fraudulent and dangerous 'universalism' of universal 'human rights' conferred on alien, competing interests by capitalism (versus the preservation and primacy of inalienable rights and heritage of Europeans, that is being criminally transferred to invaders) CAPITALIST-ENDORSED and capitalist-sponsored false ideologies are evangelised and enforced by the obedient, well-trained dogs of the capitalists:  the capitalist co-opted left-wing political parties, co-opted trade unions, and co-opted capitalist-sponsored 'progressive' interests groups), that comprise key components of a sustained decades-long top down and street level capitalist-sponsored campaign of propaganda and lies, that has grossly undermined vital interests and existential needs of all Europeans. COMMENT This is the Western capitalist-serving trojan that has infected and is destroying all European societies, to further the aims of US-Anglo led global capitalism. It is the same trojan that capitalism sponsors and endeavours to inject into independent, sovereign foreign nations that are the target of US-Anglo-led capitalist strategic conquest, per se and a target in the greater contest for US-Anglo capitalist global hegemony. The breakdown of European demographics and the breakdown of the traditional order and of the political dynamics of European societies, is the breakdown of the independence and strength of Europeans to assert European people's national interests (as a people); and it is breakdown of the power to resist exploitation by foreign capitalism, as European societies are drawn further into the nation-divesting snare that is promotion of so-called 'diversity' and 'progressive' values by US-Anglo capitalism and by its vast network of capitalist sponsored NGOs and international network of interfering and independence violating American embassies, installed by a  corrupt, disgusting and dangerous, capitalist-psychopath exploited, crime-ridden, neglected, poverty-stricken, murderous, nationally indebted, American capitalist elite serving, US-NATO capitalist mercenary deploying, war criminal, generationally raped American taxpayer third world slave-state.

Don't Buy Capitalist Propaganda

Don't Buy Capitalist Propaganda http://www.commondreams.org/views/2016/08/06/dont-blame-masses Don't Blame the Masses Published on Saturday, August 06, 2016 by The Boston Globe by Stephen Kinzer Whether or not the world is in an unusually bad state these days, it certainly seems so. Even Americans, famous for our lack of interest in world affairs, now closely follow news from far away. Much of it is frightening. Terror attacks are claiming innocent lives around the world. Syria is being torn apart. China and Russia boldly pursue their national interests and defy American dictates. Turkish democracy is evaporating. Iran and Saudi Arabia are at each other’s throats. Wars in Iraq and Afghanistan drag on interminably. The European Union is staggering, with Britain quitting and others perhaps to follow. Meanwhile, several European countries are drifting toward right-wing authoritarianism. Donald Trump’s campaign threatens to take the United States in the same direction. This is the opposite of what many Americans expected. The collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991 set off a wave of triumphalism in the West. Americans welcomed the “end of history” and presumed that all countries would quickly adopt political and economic systems like ours. There was to be a “peace dividend” as tranquility settled over the globe. People would become more prosperous. Nations would cooperate. All would gratefully submit to America’s will. Those were delusions. The world has gone in precisely the opposite direction, toward tribalism and conflict. We are now paying the price for grave misjudgments. The first was our misunderstanding of the Soviet collapse. It was a Soviet failure, but we interpreted it as an epochal American victory. That led us to believe that in a post-Cold War world, American power would grow, turning us into a global hegemon that other countries would happily follow. This was never realistic. Moments of change require adaptation, but the United States is not good at adapting. We are used to being in charge. This blinded us to the reality that as other countries began rising, our relative power would inevitably decline. Rather than shifting to a less assertive and more cooperative foreign policy, we continued to insist that America must reign supreme. When we declared that we would not tolerate the emergence of another “peer power,” we expected that other countries would blithely obey. Instead they ignore us. We interpret this as defiance and seek to punish the offenders. That has greatly intensified tensions between the United States and the countries we are told to consider our chief adversaries, Russia and China. The ideological conflict of the Cold War was so intense that when it ended, Americans assumed tranquility would follow. In fact, the Cold War was simply a temporary phenomenon that masked centuries-old political, social, cultural, and religious conflicts. Nationalism and tribalism, which began shaping the world long before Communism was invented, have reemerged rather than fading away. Our wrongheaded reaction to the end of the Cold War was America’s first major contribution to today’s global turmoil. The next was our decision to invade Iraq. That invasion continues to shape the world. The recent surge in Islamist terror is one of its long-term results. So are the refugee flows that have destabilized Europe and contributed to the rise of extremist political movements there. It is an object lesson in the long-term effects of intervening in faraway lands — a lesson we still seem not to have learned. Because we interpreted the end of the Cold War as the ultimate vindication of America’s economic system, we intensified our push toward the next level of capitalism, called globalization. It was presented as a project that would benefit everyone. Instead it has turned out to be a nightmare for many working people. Thanks to “disruption” and the “global supply chain,” many American workers who could once support families with secure, decent-paying jobs must now hope they can be hired as greeters at Walmart. Meanwhile, a handful of super-rich financiers manipulate our political system to cement their hold on the nation’s wealth. Our leaders told us that the end of the Cold War would make America more powerful than ever, that we had to invade Iraq because Iraq was developing weapons of mass destruction, and that deregulating our economy and signing trade deals would improve the lives of ordinary people. We cannot be surprised that as the scope of those deceptions became clear, people would become angry. American elites are hardly the only ones who have cynically misled their people. The same happened in Europe. “Ever closer union” was another product of the dopey optimism that infected the West in the 1990s. It ignored the evident fact that most Europeans, like most people everywhere, feel loyalty to their own nation or group, and that this loyalty is not easily transferrable to diffuse and distant conglomerations. The EU has been run largely for the benefit of the business class. Ordinary Europeans have come to realize this, and it has angered them. The same anger is enveloping countries from Egypt and Nigeria to Brazil and Venezuela. In our complex modern age, the interdependent world does not run smoothly by itself. It requires farsighted leadership that takes the fate of ordinary people seriously and favors diplomacy over coercive force. Blaming the masses for stupidly supporting demagogic politicians is mistaken. People quite reasonably resent what their leaders have done to them over the last quarter century. They demand something different, whatever it is. That is the central cause of the new world disorder. © 2016 Boston Globe Media Partners, LLC Stephen Kinzer is a former New York Times reporter and the author of Overthrow: America's Century of Regime Change from Hawaii to Iraq (2006) and Reset Middle East: Old Friends and New Alliances: Saudi Arabia, Israel, Turkey,Iran (2011). www.stephenkinzer.com http://www.commondreams.org/views/2016/08/06/dont-blame-masses COMMENT THEFT OF HERITAGE WHEREVER Europeans are invaded, raped, gang-raped, brutalised, home invaded, surrounded by foreign settlements, carjacked, murdered, vilified, dispossessed, politically suppressed, persecuted and prosecuted: it is by the ruling capitalists and their bureaucrats, who rob Europeans of their heritage, aided by the capitalist-owned media and capitalist-sponsored, self-serving, lying, Western intelligentsia.

Ordinary Americans may well be famous for lack of interest in world affairs, but the American oligarchs and conglomerates are certainly not disinterested or hands-off:  they have been violating the affairs of millions of people around the world, whose governments they have undermined, installed or deposed and whose countries they have bombed — when the American capitalists, the CIA, and American foundations are not otherwise bankrolling and organising political and social unrest in foreign nations, that are targeted for American capitalist take-down that benefits the bank accounts and investment returns of the American ruling elite. Whatever is 'frightening' in the world today, America, it's Western capitalist allies and it's Wahhabi allies supporting Islamic radicalism and tearing down nations in the Middle East and Africa, can take 'credit'. The statement: "China and Russia boldly pursue their national interests and defy American dictates" is annoying to read. Of course, China and Russia will pursue their national interests.  Why wouldn't they, and who are the American ruling oligarchy to seek to interfere with the sovereignty and national self-determination of the multitudes that comprise the nations of Russia and China. After the collapse of the Ottoman Empire, the bet is that Turkey was always a CIA-MI6 capitalist puppet and, as the capitalists are not fussed whether their puppets are dictators or not, it is a good guess that Turkey was never what passes itself off as 'democracy' in the West (ie socially liberal mayhem, propaganda, suppression, unions working against working class interests, and the ruling capitalists in control, no matter who is elected, while the people of nations of these so-called 'democracies' are hostage to a program of third world invasion).  Compared to that, give me Turkey any day.  The bet is Turkey isn't implementing a program of genocide against the Turkish people.  Yes, they're brutal to rebelling out-groups; but they're protecting interest of Turks as a people. What Turkey may now be doing is regaining some of its independence from US-Anglo capitalist control, which the US-Anglo capitalists are displeased with; which would probably explain the attempted CIA coup in Turkey?  Either that, or this whole Turkey thing is a fake, to ensure that the ruling party's grip on control of Turkey is solid, and the US-Anglo capitalists are party to this ruse. The reference to "right-wing authoritarianism' is ridiculous.  Today, any white, or European, political organisation that stands even remotely by white, European, traditions or social norms, or lobbies for policy that is actually in the interests (for a change) of the people that comprise any white, European nation, is labelled 'right-wing'.  'Authoritarian' is a nice new twist, though. Trump is then drawn into this, as if Trump is the next Hitler (as the corporate media propaganda screams), but Trump is simply an American capitalist that wants what Israel has and what endangered white America wants:  a wall to keep the infiltrators out. Oh, and he is, ostensibly, an isolationist ... which could pose problems for Wall Street warmongers. Trump is infinitely a better choice than the unindicted criminal Hillary Clinton, but at the end of the day, if Trump is elected, Trump will be guided by advisors and by the demands of a 'democracy' that is in fact an oligarchy, so electing Trump is not vastly different to electing Hillary Clinton.  But, on the bright side, Trump hasn't got form destroying other nations, being a psychopath thrilled by the murder of Libya's leader, Muammar Gaddafi, or of getting ambassadors killed (to name just a few of Hillary Clinton's electoral selling points). I reject this picture that's being painted: There was to be a “peace dividend” as tranquillity settled over the globe. People would become more prosperous. Nations would cooperate. Capitalists aren't dreamers; they're cold-hearted and greedy planners, devoid of sentimentality or delusions about a capitalist peace-and-prosperity nirvana emerging on the planet. But, yes, they most certainly would have anticipated that American power would grow and they most certainly aim to make their profit-making interests paramount, as they work towards global hegemony:  that serves them and only them. Nationalism and what is referred to as 'tribalism' (ie.  belonging to one's own racial and cultural group) is not something undesirable that has 're-emerged':  it is belonging to a tribe of people (a nation, a cohesive social group bound by heritage and history, and often a group bound by blood).  It is something that has been suppressed in Europeans (whites), to the detriment of Europeans, who have been exploited and divested of their nations by capitalists implementing a program of population replacement by invasion; and this is a CRIME that is being committed by capitalists against the people of all European nations.  Europeans have legitimate and inalienable rights to identity and integrity (be it spacial, biological or social etc), and the legitimate right to pursue what is in the interests of European peoples (versus European and American capitalists). Refugee flows are not merely flows of migrants from Iraq:  the US-led capitalists have destroyed or otherwise helped to destroy a series of Middle-Eastern and African countries.  But, whatever the case in that regard, it is not incumbent on European peoples to take the hit and to destroy European societies, no matter what the capitalist owned media and the capitalist sponsored intelligentsia may preach. The destruction of European societies, destruction of European social order, and the destruction of European nations as nations, is a long-standing capitalist agenda implemented per US-Anglo capitalist clear intent to neutralise the future potential for resistance to (and independence of) Europeans from international capitalist rule, following the CAPITALIST defeat of Germany in 1945.  This agenda has also been methodically implemented by European Union capitalists, under the banner of the European Union and its earlier incarnation; and it is an agenda that has been implemented by all European-settled, US-Anglo capitalist controlled, colonies. The reference to "extremist political movements" is ridiculous:  Europeans, wherever they are, have a right to self-determination and a right to preservation of European interests and European societies, and it is absolutely imperative for the shrinking European demographic worldwide to ensure that the interests of Europeans are not only protected, but also firmly advanced, since such interests have been systemically grossly undermined over the passage of decades of  self-annihilating sleep-walking into the deliberately laid snare of what the capitalist thieves call 'diversity' — which is, in fact, capitalist implemented path to white genocide, that is a trap precisely because the longer the program of invasion (in the capitalist PR-spun guise of 'diversity') is permitted to continue, the more impossible it is to remedy without major civil upheaval and war.  The capitalist push for 'globalisation' is merely a push for US-Anglo led capitalist global hegemony, and it has absolutely nothing to do with 'benefiting everyone', and certainly would not have been envisaged in those terms by nation destroying greedy capitalists and currency speculators. The reference to "dopey optimism" infecting the West in the 1990s is ridiculous.  If any 'optimism' was displayed, it was propaganda as a ruse, to con the working classes out of their heritage, as capitalists edged closer to divesting Europeans and destroying European nations.  The co-opted unions and 'left' parties that do not support working-class European (white) interests aided the capitalist thieves, making them accomplices to the robbery of the heritage of Europeans. Don't blame the masses because the masses do not have a choice, even when they vote for those that pose an 'alternative'; because there really is no alternative.  Whoever is elected of the mainstream political parties, is much the same proposition as those that are destroying European societies worldwide. Today's capitalist or capitalist serving politicians that are painted as 'right-wing', 'authoritarian' or a threat to 'democracy' (ie to what is hostile rule by oligarchy), are no such thing in reality.  Voting for them is merely the lesser of two evils and merely forestalling slightly the inevitable destruction of one's nation and people, by capitalism, unless the capitalists are stopped by war or revolution. Reclamation of European heritage and significant change can only be manifested by revolution.  But I don't see a revolution any time soon.  So say goodbye to Europe and say goodbye to the European people, in this lifetime. THEFT OF HERITAGE WHEREVER Europeans are invaded, raped, gang-raped, brutalised, home invaded, surrounded by foreign settlements, carjacked, murdered, vilified, dispossessed, politically suppressed, persecuted and prosecuted: it is by the ruling capitalists and their bureaucrats, who rob Europeans of their heritage, aided by the capitalist-owned media and capitalist-sponsored, self-serving, lying, Western intelligentsia.

Noam Chomsky: What Is Globalisation?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RdYwAXZh0ME TRANSCRIPT [for quotations, confirm audio] SOURCE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RdYwAXZh0ME Noam Chomsky:  What Is Globalization? *needs proof-reading -------/\/\/   Noam Chomsky: Actually, the best definition that I know, if I can remember, is by a well-known Canadian development economist, Gerry Helleiner, who tried to summarise it in a little ditty, which went something like this (don't hold me to the exact words).  He said: The poor complain They always do But that's just idle chatter Our system brings rewards to all At least, to all who matter [Laughter] Essentially, that captures it.  OK, I can go home. [Laughter] Whenever I say 'globalisation', I mean in quotes:  now, what's called 'globalisation' is one specific modality of international integration. There's nothing wrong with international integration.  That's a great thing. It's nice to meet people from other countries and all sorts of other things. But there are various forms of possible international integration, and the one that's called 'globalisation' is one particular one. Like, it's not the new international economic order that the South was calling for, and it's not the new global system that they're now calling for; it's a different one. This new one, the one that is called, [is] the official one:  you know, the one that Thomas Friedman writes laudatory books about, and so on. Among its other properties are that a country has to open up their borders to free imports, so they have to accept imports from a highly subsidised US, and Eurpean and Canadian, agribusiness which, of course, instantly wipes out domestic production for domestic needs and that means that poor farmers are starving. One thing they can do is flee to the cities, which has the nice effect that they create a massive labour force which lowers wages, and it means that US and European manufacturers, or by now Japanese and Korean manufacturers, who are putting say assembly plants or whatever abroad, can benefit from cheaper labour and, consequently, wages can go down and, in fact, do go down while the economy booms. Mexico's a dramatic case. But if farmers don't move to urban slums to become an excess labour force and try to produce something, it can't be commodities for the domestic market for food, because they will be wiped out by imported goods. So, once again, they become what's known as a 'rational peasant' in the technical literature. A 'rational peasant' is a peasant who understands that you have to produce for export and you have to seek the maximum profit. OK, so you sort of spell that out, produce for export, stable markets, maximum profit. Well, you get the same answer as before:  cocoa, poppies, and so on. And that's what's happening. So, the globalisation and, in particular, the undermining of the attempts of the South 30 years ago to create a form of globalisation directed toward the interests of the developing word -- that means almost the entire world -- one of the major consequences of this (and it's no big secret, you can read it in standard books of political economy and so on), was to greatly accelerate production of what we call 'drugs'. I mean, not the most lethal drugs.  The most lethal ones are produced in places like North Carolina. But what we call 'lethal drugs' here, peasants have been driven to it.  They have no choices. In part by the choice by the powerful states 30 years ago to institute a particular form of international economic integration --  what's called 'globalisation'  -- in preference to another one. One which would have, for example, as one of its properties among many others, things like stabilisation of primary commodity prices and what we call 'the neoliberal programs', like opening up your borders to imports from subsidised agri-export from northern agribusiness that has the same effect. There's a lot more like this. I mean, a lot of the -- what happens to the 'rational peasants', incidentally, after they've learned their lessons properly, you know, they are kind of like the equivalent of going to Harvard or MIT, or  Chicago Graduate School, and getting a degree in economics, so they become 'rational peasants'. Well, once they've learned the lesson, they're rewarded. They're rewarded with helicopter and gun ships that you and I pay for, with chemical and biological warfare and putting experimental new biological techniques of who knows what effect, by what's called here a 'drug war'. That's the reward for having learned the lessons, after having been essentially forced into a particular kind of production by the way globalisation works out. That's one of its less discussed features. Going back to the declaration of the south:  the poor are complaining as they always do. They're calling for globalisation, for international economic integration, but are calling for a form that will be on the right of development and, in particular, the right of independent development. It means no external compulsion. SOURCE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RdYwAXZh0ME -------/\/\/ Gerald Helleiner Professor Emeritus (ie. retired professor - fm.

It emerged that 15 Saudis were involved in the terror attacks on the United States." "The following February, to soften the criticism, Abdullah invited columnist Thomas L. Friedman of The New York Times to dine with him." "Friedman wrote that he took advantage of the opportunity to tell his host that in one of his recent columns, he had proposed that the 22 members of the Arab League, who were to convene for a summit in Beirut on March 27-28, should offer Israel, in return for its withdrawal to the June 4 lines and the establishment of a Palestinian state, the establishment of full diplomatic and trade relations and the provision of security guarantees." Abdulllah:  "I have drafted a speech along those lines. My thinking was to deliver it before the Arab summit and try to mobilize the entire Arab world behind it. The speech is written, and it is in my desk. But I changed my mind about delivering it when Sharon took the violence, and the oppression, to an unprecedented level." " " ...  prince had authorized [Thomas Friedman] to quote his words. President Bush welcomed the initiative. So did prime minister Ariel Sharon. He sent a message to Javier Solana, the European Union foreign policy chief, and to President Hosni Mubarak of Egypt, asking them to arrange a meeting between him and senior Saudis, either openly or in secret. At the end of February, Sharon offered to deliver a speech before the Arab League and present his conditions for peace. The Arab leaders rejected the idea on the grounds that it was just a maneuver to win recognition without giving anything in return.

You want 1950? We can do 1950. You want 1389? We can do 1389 too." Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting (FAIR) labelled Freidman's remarks "war-mongering" and "crude race-hatred and war-crime agitation". Norman Solomon 2007, says:  "a tone of sadism could be discerned" in Friedman's article.     Solomon, anti-war campaigner     -- behind 14,000 person e-mail petition to govt of Ecuador     -- urging Ecuador to grant Julian Assange asylum     https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norman_Solomon IRAQ Friedman supported the 2003 invasion of Iraq: establishment of a democratic state in the Middle East would force other countries in the region to liberalize and modernize. 2003 - Wall Street Journal article:  re lack of compliance w/ UNSC resolution re Iraq 'WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION' Friedman later rebuked George W. Bush and Tony Blair for "hyping" the evidence Big on the 'converting Iraq to democracy' theme, which reminds me of the Goebbels propaganda swing lyrics: "Listen to the BBC, BBC, BBC, Listen to the BBC, tra-la-la-la, Who's preaching world democracy, democracy, democracy? Who wants to make free people free?" Friedman 2004:  dismisses the justification for war based on Iraq's lack of compliance with UN Resolutions --  "The right reason for this war ... was to oust Saddam's regime and partner with the Iraqi people ..." -- refers to Arab Human Development report -- claiming lack of freedom, women's empowerment & modern eduction cause of Arab ills -- Friedman's right reason for war was:  to partner with Arab moderates in long-term strategy of 'dehumiliation' and 'redignification'  "Listen to the BBC, BBC, BBC, Listen to the BBC, tra-la-la-la, Who's preaching world democracy, democracy, democracy? Who wants to make free people free?" ISRAEL --  according to FAIR, Friedman was explicitly endorsing terrorism by Israel against Lebanese and Palestinians -- Glenn Greenwald and professor Noam Chomsky also accused Friedman of endorsing and encouraging terrorism by Israeli forces -- Belen Fernandez:  Friedman's suggestion Israeli forces unaware re allied Lebanese militias carrying out out Sabra and Shatila massacre while under Israeli guard, contradicts other journalist assessments & observers. -- Belen Fernandez: Friedman most worried about successfully maintaining Israel's Jewish ethnocracy and actively opposing a "one-man, one-vote" system of democracy. -- critics on Israel side as well - eg. re suggestion Israel relinquish territory conquered 1967 -- Friedman wrote congressional ovations re Bibi Netanyahu "bought & paid for by Israel lobby" - sparked criticism.  Friedman suggests a more precise term:  "engineered" by Israel lobby. + more entries [I'm getting bored] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Friedman Arab Human Development Report sponsored by:  United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) platform for 'Arab scholars' Democracy & human rights angle.

Noam Chomsky's likeable and always interesting. Friedman sounds sort of mixed up and all over the place. Gets criticised by everybody. I'm wondering if this is what all White House correspondents are like: ie in the mould of Friedman? Anyway, that's a bit on what was supposed to be about globalisation ... but I went off on a tangent checking everyone out. I've looked at this in one sitting & I'm over it now.   Need a break. -------/\/\/ *I don't get the biotech revenues and estimates at all.  Numbers isn't my thing.  Don't get the comparison between the North Carolina figures & the world figures. *I thought Friedman's formative years, in terms of education and affinity with the state of Israel, was interesting in terms of his later becoming a correspondent re Middle Eastern affairs.  As in, Friedman would surely have a pro-Israel bias, as a result?   *United Nations Development Program, sound like just another way for Western imperialists to control the rest of the world.
