Bush League

I've not met Jeb Bush. But his brother crippled the USA, tortured blindly, and rightly should be in prison for crimes against almost everyone. Their sinister father was no better. Should we give Jeb a chance?

Hell no. It would be best if we could ship the whole creepy clan to Somalia -- or anywhere that would take 'em -- along with Hilary & America's other professional politicos ...

These dancing weasels, and the rare reformer, are a distracting sideshow to the systematic rape of our nation (and the world) by profit-hungry militarists without scruple or morals.

Greek Fete

The Greek government & people have borrowed a lot, and now hope to avoid repayment. Who'll be left with the bill? Of course they hope to escape their debts without pain.

Are the Greeks being reasonable?  Should all debts be forgiven?

Korea's "ilbe" illusions

일베저장소 (Ilbe Jeojangso) is a strange phenomenon in South Korea. Young disaffected people are doing odd & crazy things. The "anything OK" bulletin board is typically labeled libertarian or right-wing, but ILBE is a kind of anarchy - and the ILBE tribe follows a disturbing trend that reaches to the top of Korean society.

People in Korea see flim-flam in action. They followed how the government bolstered one party and undermined its opponent in an election farce far dirtier than Watergate. Anything is OK. It's unethical and corrupt, a soulless crony capital system.

There is dynamic democracy in Korea - partly stifled by authoritarian rigidities and corrupt leadership. Populism thrives. Local people feel outmaneuvered, and hit-out at those weaker. Chauvinistic popular feeling regularly condemns non-Korean businesses: unreasonable attacks are justified by the rubric that "Koreans are emotional." Ultimately, everyone is either connected & protected, or an outsider without influence.

We're all encouraged to hurry. Why?  Perhaps that's a root of  일베 ...

ILBE is best translated to English as "WTF" or "whatevah..."

Those who understand what's happening often believe it's sick, sick, sick. But so is the sham government of President Park: sick, sick, sick... Outsiders not invested in Korea see rot and corruption, and understand anarchist sentiments - where the unconnected are food for the fishes. Korea is unhealthy! So sad...

Unregistered Humans!

Japan has an estimated 10,000 unregistered citizens - people who've lived all their lives amidst society. Without family registry, they're official outsiders.

Read Japan's sordid story by Tomoko Otake here (link)

Both America & Japan have far more unregistered non-citizens -- illegal alien residents. President Obama this week was attempting to grant clemency & amnesty to many young foreigners illegally in the USA. Those plans are now waylaid by court order.

Nobody likes bureaucratic red tape. It's most horrible when entangled. But social services reasonably collect details to fuel their activities & for auditing oversight. Otherwise our taxes only disappear. We've yet to develop wholly robust systems, and poor systems discourage our investments in social services. Illegal aliens may have forced their way into our living room, and pushed aside those  invited, but gate crashers haven't right to remain. If not inviting everyone, we need controls.

Honoring Others

If we each honor the ideas & opinions of others, there can be no conflict.

Some people are pushy, some are rude. Some people wish us harm, to take our property or use us maliciously.

We cannot and perhaps should not seek to ignore such people. Recognize their ignorant and threatening malevolence.

The militarists in our midst are deeply dangerous. They speak of "acceptable error" with air strikes. But killing or maiming a single innocent person is horrible and inexcusable. In harming innocent children and non-combatants, we who fund violence target ourselves.

Our militarism is out of control, and deeply dangerous.

Torture Volunteers

Unit 731 was a Japanese wartime research facility responsible for experimenting on people: prisoners-of-war and local Chinese (link). Gruesome experiments on living humans and large scale germ-warfare trials were carried-out by medical personnel under control of the Japanese occupying military authority.

We don't know as much as we should about the horrors of Unit 731, Surgeon General Shirō Ishii, and superiors in Tokyo (731部隊と石井四郎) because of huge postwar cover-up when the blood-soaked data was bartered to the American military. (Some background here - link)

Now Japan would have us believe Unit 731 victims "volunteered" for sacrifice - without anesthesia or ceremony. Sure...

Scandal Nuts

Cho Hyun-A (조현아, Heather Cho) has been heavily denounced and condemned for nutty behavior at Korean Air (땅콩 회항 or "nut rage"). The heiress has now apologized, but only after triggering great outrage over abusive behavior among Korea's wealthy families. Today she was sentenced to a year's detention with no parole... with the judge stating "human dignity was trampled upon"... Was the tantrum truly as described? Did Cho's family & colleagues suffer such antics for 40+ years? Or is Mrs. Cho a vendetta victim from the ruling class?

"Parking Argument"

After the murder of three students in North Carolina (a young couple & teenage female relative) we're pointedly told it's not a hate crime. Who put this show together? All quite reasonable?

The accused murderer's wife does not claim his innocence; yet the brutal execution-style murder was ...?  The accused's lawyer suggests almost a misdemeanor debate over parking. But someone shot three unarmed young people in the head, killing them in cold blood in their home for no good reason!

Reasonable people would not expend energy & effort denying hate crime without expressing remorse or shame. Without first declaring great sorrow for the tragedy, these people are disgusting. It's as if a skunk were killed. Three promising young people were butchered!

Perhaps "Parking Argument" needs to be added to the list of scandalous euphemisms (link), such as "Didn't Inhale" and "Wide Stance" and "Hiking the Appalachian Trail"...

I'm sorry for the senseless dead and their family & friends.
I'm sorry also for deceived & terrorized America.

America the Cruel !

Dangerous America

The Spin is In:
We're told the murder of three Islamic youths in Chapel Hill, North Carolina USA was not hate crime, but a parking argument.

Sure!

Government & media also share responsibility for terrorizing the American Islamic community. Surely terrible! Many innocent people continue to die in this 5000-year "parking argument"...

Stop War, Stop Killing.
