COMMENT
*Part re interference in market they want blocked & tyranny reads kind of funny to me. It's the interference they want blocked so they can get away with tyranny is what he's getting at, I think. But the sentence seems confusing (to me).
*I disagree with the last part, about there not being rule by force. We are ruled by force & there's nothing we can do. Look what happens to protesters. When they're not beaten, imprisoned etc, martial law is imposed and they're beaten and imprisoned if they dare break curfew, I guess.

US Corporate Media - Big Power Serving Role in Obtaining Mass Consen By Transmission of Ideology & Propaganda As Entertainment
Beyond Manufacturing Consent By: Paul Street The book Manufacturing Consent did not examine what is probably the biggest part of US corporate media’s contribution to the engineering of mass “consent.” A critical, vicious and pervasive theme in this ugly media culture is the notion that people who are poor, insecure, coerced, struggling, and otherwise pushed and kept down by those (officially invisible) oppression structures are the irresponsible, personally and culturally flawed creators of their own fate. The mass US media’s version of Athenian idiocy “can imagine,” in the words of Left cultural theorist Henry Giroux (who includes superb content analyses of US movies and non-news television shows in his prolific work on the authoritarian “culture of neoliberalism”), “public issues only as private concerns.” It works to “erase the social from the language of public life so as to reduce” questions of racial and socioeconomic disparity to “private issues of …individual character and cultural depravity. Consistent with “the central neoliberal tenet that all problems are private rather than social in nature,” it portrays the only barrier to equality and meaningful democratic participation “being a lack of principled self-help and moral responsibility” and bad personal choices. (Giroux). Government efforts to meaningfully address and ameliorate (not to mention abolish) sharp societal disparities of race, class, gender, ethnicity, nationality and the like are relentlessly portrayed as futile, counterproductive, naïve, megalomaniacal, dangerous, deluded, counter-productive, and “anti-American.” US corporate media’s biggest contribution to the engineering of mass “consent.” LOOK-UPS Alexander Edward Carey (1922 –1987) Geraldton WA sheep farmer Paul Street American journalist, author & political commentator Thought I'd really enjoy this article, but I haven't for some reason. Could just be tired. Woke up really early. Tired, but can't sleep. Not really focused. Not so much into the bits about blissful indifference to oppressions structures. Found that rather off-putting. Not everybody buys a ticket on his Marxist trip. |

Totalitarian Evil Empire, USA
TOTALITARIAN
EVIL EMPIRE
ASSANGE & MANNING
Check out what a loathsome individual this woman is:
Hillary Clinton: "We came, we saw, he died ... [laughter]"

Of course, a sick and twisted USA also 'excuses' itself and gives itself the right to commit genocide (see Chomsky video above).
Hillary Clinton has a pattern of lying & denying public scrutiny:
Among the private e-mails is a communication concerning a DoJ subpoena issued to Twitter -- yep, Twitter, for f*ck's sake (lol) -- concerning information about Assange and 'certain individuals' who support Assange and Manning. On the basis of Hillary Clinton's history of unethical conduct in relation to matters of State and public interest, as disclosed by Jerry Zeifman, Hillary Clinton's use of private e-mail in relation to the Manning and Assange matters sure smacks of something dirty going on in the US State Department.

FLASHBACK: Hillary Clinton Fired From Watergate Investigation For ‘Lying, Unethical Behavior’ Excerpted from EO-History: The now-retired general counsel and chief of staff of the House Judiciary Committee, who supervised Hillary when she worked on the Watergate investigation, says Hillary’s history of lies and unethical behavior goes back farther – and goes much deeper – than anyone realizes. [...] Zeifman says that Hillary, along with Marshall, Nussbaum and Doar, was determined to gain enough votes on the Judiciary Committee to change House rules and deny counsel to Nixon. And in order to pull this off, Zeifman says Hillary wrote a fraudulent legal brief, and confiscated public documents to hide her deception.
No way known can anybody expect to get justice in USA - ever.
Of course, Nixon’s resignation rendered the entire issue moot, ending Hillary’s career on the Judiciary Committee staff in a most undistinguished manner. Zeifman says he was urged by top committee members to keep a diary of everything that was happening. He did so, and still has the diary if anyone wants to check the veracity of his story. Certainly, he could not have known in 1974 that diary entries about a young lawyer named Hillary Rodham would be of interest to anyone 34 years later. EXTRACT ONLY - FULL AT SOURCE

Netanyahu - AIPAC 2015
Netanyahu AIPAC PC 2015 Monday Morning Session SUMMARY 1) Jose Maria Aznar, Spain 1996-2004 Friends of Israel initiative founder Canada, former FM / Consistently voted against anti-Israel resolutions in UN
3) Milos Zeman, President of Czech republic--------------------------------- >Jose Maria Aznar, Spain 1996-2004 / Friends of Israel initiative founder
[skip]
Edit: Think he also said it was three-way strategy: (1) drones (2) rangers ? (3) intelligence work - but no boots on ground. Strategy with no ground battle & territory take-over sounds like Met twice with Chief of Mossad. Mossad is single most efficient intelligence service in world.
US therefore also gets Israel on-board in Western European groups, presumably by applying their influence. Honoured to be joined by President of Israel Benjamin Netanyahu [applause] Two great democracies celebration. Stand w ppl of Israel in quest to stop Iran. We stand with ppl of Israel in their quest for a brighter future. Welcomes Bibi. Big applause. Wow, 16,000 ppl! Any from Cali? Florida? NY? Colorado .. not so many etc Thanks Czechs for support Also: former PM Spain + FM John Baird Canada True champs Silence ... then, eventually, applause Uh-oh. Bibi. Give him a break, AIPAC. Has respect Appreciates security, intel co-op etc. Deeply grateful. 1967 Israel did act alone to defend self 1981 Begin, nuke reactor Iraq (?) [think it should be 'Iran', but not sure] Israel is a beacon of light, humanity & hope Boy, that was fun. Thanks BiBi! COMMENT Just a rough take of what I saw of the presentation at AIPAC. Excuse any typos. Too tired to bother. * A picture of Israeli strength, determination and independence. Citing previous achievements. Not sure if he's hinting Israel may well take on Iran with or without the US, or if it was just a part of the strong-ally pitch. |
