THOUGHT FOR THE DAY!

"Imperialism today is taking place in the context of...the 'universalization' of capitalism. It is not now primarily a matter of territorial conquest or direct military or colonial control. It is not now a matter of capitalist powers invading non-capitalist powers in order to bleed them dry directly and by brute force. Now it is more a matter of ensuring that the forces of the capitalist market prevail in every corner of the world (even if this means marginalizing and impoverishing parts of it), and of manipulating those market forces to the advantage of the most powerful capitalist economies and the United States in particular." ... "Military force is still central to the imperialist project, in some ways more than ever."-- Political scientist Ellen Meiksins-Wood, Z magazine Nov 1999, p26

 

HAPPY 'KICK OUT THE GOVERNMENT' DAY!!!

 

The Iran War - How It Will Begin

Regardless if the war begins with a limited number of air strikes against Iranian military and nuclear targets, or if an all-out several thousand target attack begins from day one the probabilities of the war becoming a major regional war within 48 hours are 90% or higher.

The Iranians will simply not allow Israeli and/or American military forces to attack its territory without a major response. Any significant counter-attack on Israel and/or American regional bases will trigger a much greater counter-response.

The Iran War - How It Will Begin

the_big_wedding

I'm not sure I buy the booga-booga. I am becoming convinced that there is going to be no war with Iran. At least, not yet.

There seems to have been shift within the DOD, begining with Gates and those who advise Obama (Zbigniew Brzezinski, Biden, George Soros, the Tri-Lateral crowd) to move away from the "war on terror" neocon pre-emptive war strategy of flattening Israel's enemies; that somehow this policy is consistent with U.S. aims and goals in its foreign policy. I think Brzezinski wants to go back to the old cold war stratagies of defeating Russia and China first as a way of defeating those who see Russian and China as their benefactors.

I also think there are more than a few dim-bulbs at the Pentagon who now see that the sole beneficiary of the "war on terror", since 911, has been Israel; and that beause Israeli and zionist interests now dominate the legislative branches of the U.S. government through AIPAC, the DOJ, and Homeland Security they have become alarmed at the real risk that these zionist interests could have taken power of the executive branch through the Presidency of McCain (a Lieberman VP, McCain's first choice); that the police state erected by Bush in the wake of 911 would ultimately be used against those who erected it in the first place.

So I think a schism has taken place amongst the coalition that planned 911: the Bush crime family, the Texas oil crowd, CIA insiders, the Christian zionist on the one hand; and the neocons, the Likudites, and MOSSAD crowd on the other.

I presdict that Obama will be our next President.

I also think there has been or will be a secret reproachment with Russia. For it is the Russians who know full well about the neocons. These erstwhile Trotskyists who have brought nothing but pain and sorrow to the Russians. First throught the Bolshevik revolution, the the CHEKA secret police; and recently by the Russian Israeli gangster oligarchs using the Friedman neoliberal model to loot the country once again.

I think this guy might be right about what is going to happen very soon.. How it will end is in question.. The Earle states that perhaps a billion might die if things really turn to shit.. I think he is underestimating the consequences of nuclear/biological/chemical war..

And if Israel has a biowarfare death plague aimed at the Arab race, based on DNA.. Does this not make Israel the murderer of The Semites.. supposedly "Gods Chosen People".

How can the Christians and Muslims sit back and allow this to happen? These are God's chosen poeple, unless it is all just bullshit.

Sorry for the double post.
