'Credibility on the Line'

Supposedly the "credibility" of President Barack Obama hinges on attacking Syria.

US unilateral attack on Syria would be criminal without UN Security Council mandate.

Anyhow -- Obama has no credibility.

Obama lost credibility by ignoring international treaties. He's harbored fugitives from war crimes prosecution, protecting torturers & outlaws who inflicted corruption and terror on America. He's done little or nothing toward promised nuclear disarmament. He's responsible for systematic destabilization at home & overseas.

Obama has given public money to favored private banks & industrial groups, grimly undercutting less-favored firms and the free-enterprise system.

President Obama has surrendered his empathy & compassion. It's difficult to imagine why he acts this way... perhaps he's held hostage to blackmail? His actions undermine America's long term interests. Perhaps he simply aspires to seaside villa retirement in Haifa or Tel Aviv...

We can only pray he'll somehow offer atonement.

Emperor Nudie

Passionately against the idea of nuclear power?  I'm NOT.

Nuclear power could be appealing, but local utilities must be SAFE.

Nuclear waste is inherent to nuclear power. Atomic radiation is highly toxic, killing everything & poisoning continually for very long time periods ... Nuclear waste is a dirty bomb.

We need safekeeping systems for the dirty bombs created by nuclear power plants.

We have terrible atomic waste storage. After the 2011 Fukushima nuclear disaster, avoiding this issue is criminal. It's idiotic stockpiling dirty bombs beside nuclear furnaces.

Politicians tells us they know best? Bullshit - look no further than these nuclear waste stockpiles to understand our political jokers brazenly gamble with our homes, our lives, our kids.

They front industrial coalitions.
Antidream horrors care little for common folk.
Fix this problem at home before parading overseas.

Nuclear waste must be safely stored far from the nuclear furnaces; otherwise, nuclear power is unstable, deadly, and not a realistic option.

The BBC kindly shows us (link & below image) Fukushima's next probable disaster: unstable leaky water tanks multiply alarmingly near the remains of damaged reactors. If another tsunami comes, maybe even a heavy snowfall, much nasty shit splashes into the ocean...

America has similar deadly nuclear plants. Fix them politicos!

held accountable? 2

TEPCO & the government of Japan are poisoning the world.

They suddenly announce "radiation from Fukushima leaks is 18 times previously reported"

Supposedly, before now TEPCO & regulators used inappropriate equipment.

Where's the USA and the International Atomic Energy Agency? Of course the USA is constantly monitoring this poisoning - but as usual, supports industry above humanity. This is an example of very bad design - made in the USA.

It's clear after Fukushima our designs suck. Every nuclear plant is also a nuclear waste dump / "storage facility"... Why stockpile dirty bombs by a furnace? 

Obama & his government are responsible for doing nothing as the world is poisoned by radiation. Many dozen more such plants continue to operate, including Pilgrim Nuclear Generating Station, an aging nuclear plant the same type & design as Japan's disabled Fukushima Daiichi. Protect your own people Obama - stay away from Syria and fix real problems at home.

held accountable?

From the BBC:
""Countries who violate international norms regarding chemical weapons need to be held accountable," the US said."

US leadership has never been held accountable
 - for making war
 - for torture
 - for slavery
 - for genocide of native people

It is not enough to stop.

Sure, America withdrew its combat forces 30 years ago from Vietnam & Southeast Asia. But people continue to die from landmines & poisonous chemicals we scattered there. We killed hundreds of thousands of civilians... by mistake?

Where's the accountability?

British Bulldog

The Commons defeated Prime Minister David Cameron's efforts pledging the UK to Syrian military action. The BBC (link) is full of celebratory shouts.

Britain (and increasingly Sweden) have become serfs to the USA.

Nothing's really changed with very top Brit politicos: they're still butt-licking dogs. But many in Parliament's rank-and-file have suddenly found & tapped a democratic fervor that doesn't curry war to power the economy.

Deedy Drunk?

Nobody knows if Christopher Deedy was legally drunk at 2:30 AM when he shot dead Kollin Elderts in a crowded Waikiki McDonalds.

Surely both men had been drinking.

Deedy admits shooting Elderts. But because Deedy was an off-duty U.S. Federal employee, he was treated specially.

Reportedly (link), Deedy refused to take a blood-alcohol test.

Instead, while in custody Deedy might have demanded to be alcohol tested in order to clear suspicion of drunkenness. He did not... perhaps he dared not.

Inexperience, deadly force & alcohol are a terrible combination. Don't take your gun to town.

No More Yankee War

 
US President Barack Obama is required by international law to prosecute war crimes. He has instead collaborated and excused the criminals.

Remember the Iraq War: Secretary of State Colin Powell's assurances & certain knowledge (link) of Iraqi chemical weapons -- with other "weapons of mass destruction" -- supposedly justified a war, bypassing permission by the United Nations Security Council. Later we learned no such weapons existed. It was all based on bullshit, supposedly one refugee in Germany nicknamed "Curveball" ... Powell, Bush, Blair & others responsible still simply snigger.

Now another outrage & pack of lies is being constructed around Syria. We can't afford more war.  We're still paying for past dumb wars.

Do President Obama & John Kerry & assorted others hope to test US guns & bombs? Are they individually held to ransom and forced toward militarist misadventures?

They'll accomplish loss of the White House next election & the promise of more rabid Republicans to the Supreme Court.

No More Yankee War !

No More Yankee War !

Democracy Gassed

The U.S. government and its minions don't hesitate using corrosive chemical agents on peaceful protestors. Here's video of shameful violence at the University of California at Davis (18 November 2011; video here)

UC Davis ultimately apologized and paid compensation to those gassed.

One dumb Fox News commentator, Megyn Kell, belittled the attack, claiming pepper spray "is essentially a food product."

Viva !  Democracy USA

Chemical Extermination

Is the Syrian government guilty of using chemical agents to exterminate people?

We don't know.

John Kerry doesn't know. Pres. Obama doesn't know. Eager military supply companies now demanding the U.S. intervene in Syria surely do not know.

We do know the USA itself used chemical poisons to kill hundreds of convicts over the past 50 years. So-called "lethal injection" can be horrendous (link). Since Obama became US President (from 20 Jan 2009 until 5 Aug 2013), 200 people have been chemically exterminated in the USA without benefit of a participating physician.

We've also used napalm, depleted uranium & phosphorous bombs over the past decades on foreign peoples, both rural & urban, killing unknown hundreds - more likely thousands - of non-combatants.

Nobody has been prosecuted for such overseas crimes.

It's hard to believe America mourns Syria's most recent dead. Judging from past misdeeds, it's as likely we're partly responsible. In any event, more illegal killing is not the path we should follow.  No More ... Yankee War.

No more Yankee war.

Sweden as a Poodle

Sweden obeys the USA like a pet dog.



After the Snowden revelations, Sweden's PM Fredrik Reinfeldt & Foreign Minister Carl Bildt know their government keeps few secrets from America's secret police. But they could complain about the range of people with access to Sweden's strategic & defense intel.

US government outsourcing opens Sweden's industrial infrastructure to worldwide prying eyes. Perhaps anyone can buy a peek.

And it's the same for other nations whose secrets are tapped. We only know Chelsea Manning can't watch us.

Will Freddie complain next week when master visits? He's such a polite little poodle! ...one of Barry's favorite dozen.

Shitler

Herr Adolf Hitler is misunderstood.

Sure he was an evil little fucker. But one man didn't create the murderous system of National Socialism. Even all his demonic lieutenants with their militaristic uniforms could not make war at home & abroad without the willing assistance of a wider population, (pardon to use German), das Volk.

Volksgemeinschaft is alive & well in militarist nations. It's often joined by feelings of victimization, Dolchstoßlegende ...

Surely many recognize they're being played as fools. We need to look deeper for the puppet masters. Hitler was front man for military industrialists. Look past Hitler to find Hermann Göring, Alfried Krupp, and other smarmy militarists.

These weasels looked for the scapegoat & hid behind patriotism. A familiar story today...
