Ukraine/Russia Smell that? That's the smell of a whole lot of sumfin' hitting a very large fan.

Right Wing Nationalists = Fascists Mark my words we are going to end up on the wrong side of this thing.
Trying to learn what is going on in Ukraine/Russia. Watching the conventional news channel on TV for the first time in over a year. What absolute shit this is. Is this what passes for journalism now? Only the BBC and CBC have the thinnest pretense of objectivity. CNN is Laughably Latte Liberal on just about every issue with talking heads who don't even seem to have a rudimentary understanding of geopolitics. Every other "News" outlet seems to be preoccupied by every fluff story about the Oscars they can find. ABSOLUTE CRAP. The networks can't understand why nobody watches anymore? Really?

Anyway, 
CNN has just declared that Russia has invaded Ukraine. The fact that this region is overwhelmingly ethnic Russian makes me wonder; how the hell do they know? "Holy crap! Southern Ukraine is full of Russians! What the hell happened!" "Must have been an invasion."

It  may be that Russia wants to deploy it's forces in the Crimea region to stabilize the nuclear missile silos scattered all over the region. Many forget that after the fall of communism the Ukraine became the world's 4th largest nuclear power.

Stay tuned Apocalyptoids, we're on this.

Once You Understand This, Everything Falls Into Place.

Here is the single most important thing to understand if you want to know how and why the world is the way it is. Everything, and I mean EVERYTHING that goes on in the great geo-political maelstrom that is planet Earth traces back to this one uncomfortable FACT. Sleep well Apocalyptiods.

GOOD LUCK FELLAS!

Canadians Challenge Central Bank In Court
12-20-11


COURT CHALLENGE
Bank of Canada and Minister of Finance, Defendants

PRESS RELEASE
TORONTO, ON., CANADA- 19/12/2011
TWO CANADIANS AND A CANADIAN ECONOMIC THINK TANK CONFRONT THE GLOBAL FINANCIAL POWERS IN THE CANADIAN FEDERAL COURT.

THE CANADIANS PLEAD FOR DECLARATIONS THAT WOULD RESTORE THE USE OF THE BANK OF CANADA FOR THE BENEFIT OF CANADIANS AND REMOVE IT FROM THE CONTROL OF INTERNATIONAL PRIVATE ENTITIES WHOSE INTERESTS AND DIRECTIVES ARE PLACED ABOVE THE INTEREST OF CANADIANS AND THE PRIMACY OF THE CONSTITUTION OF CANADA

Canadian constitutional lawyer, Rocco Galati, on behalf of Canadians William Krehm, and Ann Emmett, and COMER (Committee for Monetary and Economic Reform) on December 12th, 2011 filed an action in Federal Court, to restore the use of the Bank of Canada to its original purpose, by exercising its public statutory duty and responsibility. That purpose includes making interest free loans to municipal/provincial/federal governments for "human capital" expenditures (education, health, other social services) and /or infrastructure expenditures.

The action also constitutionally challenges the government's fallacious accounting methods in its tabling of the budget by not calculating nor revealing the true and total revenues of the nation before transferring back "tax credits" to corporations and other taxpayers.

The Plaintiffs state that since 1974 there has been a gradual but sure slide into the reality that the Bank of Canada and Canada's monetary and financial policy are dictated by private foreign banks and financial interests contrary to the Bank of Canada Act.

The Plaintiffs state that the Bank of International Settlements (BIS), the Financial Stability Forum (FSF) and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) were all created with the cognizant intent of keeping poorer nations in their place which has now expanded to all nations in that these financial institutions largely succeed in over-riding governments and constitutional orders in countries such as Canada over which they exert financial control.

The Plaintiffs state that the meetings of the BIS and Financial Stability Board (FSB) (successor of FSF), their minutes, their discussions and deliberations are secret and not available nor accountable to Parliament, the executive, nor the Canadian public notwithstanding that the Bank of Canada policies directly emanate from these meetings. These organizations are essentially private, foreign entities controlling Canada's banking system and socio-economic policies.

The Plaintiffs state that the defendants (officials) are unwittingly and /or wittingly, in varying degrees, knowledge and intent engaged in a conspiracy, along with the BIS, FSB, IMF to render impotent the Bank of Canada Act as well as Canadian sovereignty over financial, monetary, and socio-economic policy, and bypass the sovereign rule of Canada through its Parliament by means of banking and financial systems.

A press conference will be held on Wednesday, December 21st, 2011 at 10:00 a.m. to answer any questions the media may have of the Plaintiffs at: 637 College Street, Suite 203, Toronto, Ontario.

A copy of the filed statement of claim is attached.

About the 99%

The end is not near. The end is here. The graveyard of empires is about to erect a new tombstone, this time for the Exited States of Hysteria. Perhaps mausoleum is a more appropriate word. What with the new $800 million dollar fortress/embassy being built in Kabul. Iraq is a deepening morass with no end in sight.
Here are some quick figures.
Each US soldier in Afghanistan costs $1 million per annum. CIA employs 80,000 mercenaries there, cost unknown. The US spends an astonishing $20.2 billion alone annually air conditioning troop quarters in Afghanistan and Iraq. The war has cost 450 billion so far.
As far as the human cost goes, something like 1750 "allied" dead and 15000 wounded.
In Iraq, we are looking at $1.9 trillion (give or take a couple of billion) or $6300 per US citizen. Total US casualties? A staggering 4477 dead and 31912 wounded. These however, are official totals and the real numbers are almost certainly higher. After all if the government can't tell the public the truth about the Post-Office's budget how the hell can we expect them to be anywhere near accurate about something as sensitive as the number of service men and women sent to their deaths?
In the course of researching this post I discovered that there is no agency responsible for maintaining an accurate count of Iraqi civilian deaths but the best estimates have the total at about 1 455 590. Think about that for a moment. What better way to illustrate the fact that the Iraqis don't count than NOT TO COUNT THEM? The Iraqis don't count. The civilians don't count. The taxpayers don't count. YOU don't count.
The only entities that have any pull in Washington are the big defense contractors and the ones who finance them.
The Occupy Wall Street protesters, bless their little hearts, haven't got a clue or a prayer. Does anyone really believe that the Neros on Capitol Hill are going to let these figurative Christians affect any real change? They are fortunate so far in that they have not had their heads bashed in like so many seal pups in spring. There are signs that the movement has already been infiltrated and that is of course to be expected. The one thing the Exited States truly despises is a real populist movement of the people FOR the people.
The American people don't get it. They really don't. The elections are rigged, the table is tilted, as George Carlin used to say, its a big club and you ain't in it. The money has long since been stolen from them. NOW they are worried about Social Security. It is gone, has been for a while now, Clinton got it. They think they lost their freedoms when the Bush/Cheney cabal rammed through the obscene Patriot Act. Nope Lyndon Johnson began the destruction of the American form of democracy. Not that it ever got to take more than a few wobbly first steps in the first place.
Yeah, Nixon WAS a crook, but so where most of the rest of them. One big criminal gang running the country into the ground to line the pockets of dem bad mutha-fuckas The Harvard/Yale Crew. I should point out just to illustrate how useless partisan politics is that the only two presidents of the current era who were not among the absolute slime of humanity were one of each party. Can you guess? One crisp 44 cent dollar for the first reader to get it right.
Back to the protesters. I do admire the tenacity and the willingness to try to affect some real change but the time for a real genuine full-blown protest movement was around 1967 - hey wait a minute...
Even those opposed to the selling out of America sold-out. Hippies became yuppies bongs to beemers and there you have it. I'll miss America. It really is too bad that in the minds of most of the population, the USA's very raison d'etre was to oppose things. Anti-communism, war on drugs, war on terror blah blah blah. America needs to be FOR something. Something besides shopping. You can't define yourself by what you are opposed to any more than you can describe a cat by talking about what it isn't.
America is lost. the 1% have won. The so-called 99% who are occupying different cities of the USA and the around the world may save their own souls by chanting and waving placards but they cannot save the nation.
Sleep well Apocalyptoids.
