Scott Walker Fantasizes About Reagan Breaking the Air Controllers Union – Snakes on a Plane




Scott Walker was praising his idol Ronald Wilson Reagan (666) on Morning Joe's (MSNBC) daily RNC talking point vehicle – Joe being a Limousine “Conservative” living on the upper west side of Manhattan. Praising the god Reagan for hating the unions and indirectly implying himself to be political heir of Saint Ronny for a similar hate against the working classes. 

Scott and Joe’s circle jerk fantasy has to do with Reagan breaking the Air Controller’s union in a Brian Williams, Bill O’Reilly revisionist style bit of history – that somehow this union thing Shocked and Awed the Soviets into submission and onto their knees before the great re-purposed "B" Hollywood back lot Actor got turned into the Soviets' eyes as the greatest American President / Saint. Yeah Right.

If anything breaking the unions in 1981 broke the skies and twenty years later our enemies came via those broken skies "manned" by non-union wimps that would not protect the skies on 911 – 2001. 

Snakes on the Plane since Reagan.

Moral Low Ground – Bill O’Reilly - Four American Nuns Murdered in El Salvador 1980




Murdered martyrs: (L to R- Maura Clarke, Ita Ford, Dorothy Kazel and Jean Donovan)

Nuns that Bill O'Reilly of Fox News says that he saw murdered in El Salvador.

The dead cannot defend themselves from news hacks/ghouls.

RIP:

Sister Maura Clarke

Lay Person Jean Donovan

Sister Ita Ford

Sister Dorothy Kazel



“Those who work on the side of the poor suffer the same fate as the poor.” So said Archbishop Oscar Romero, the heroic Salvadoran priest who championed the cause of his country’s oppressed masses before being assassinated in March 1980 by a death squad armed, trained and funded by United States.


Archbishop Romero’s spirit lived on in Maura Clarke, Jean Donovan, Ita Ford and Dorothy Kazel, four American churchwomen who journeyed to war-torn El Salvador to help the poor.

“Daesh” Favored by France as Descriptive Name - French Find “ISIS” Offensive as a Name




What does Daesh stand for, the preferred name for this evil gangster war lord association in the Middle East?


What's in a name? When it comes to how to refer to the extremist group that has terrorized Syria and northern Iraq and violently imposed a caliphate, a lot.

The Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) is a bit of a misnomer, says France, as it lends the imprimatur of Islam to a group that the vast majority of Muslims finds despicable. "This is a terrorist group and not a state. I do not recommend using the term Islamic State because it blurs the lines between Islam, Muslims, and Islamists," France's Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius said in a statement. "The Arabs call it 'Daesh' and I will be calling them the 'Daesh cutthroats.'"


The name Daesh, according to France24, is a "loose acronym" for "Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant" (al-Dawla al-Islamiya al-Iraq al-Sham). The name is commonly used by enemies of ISIS, and it also has many negative undertones, as Daesh sounds similar to the Arabic words Daes ("one who crushes something underfoot") and Dahes ("one who sows discord").

Chicago’s Gitmo North Torture Site – Homan Square Black Site Prison




Little wonder “Crime” is down to near zero in America’s major cities. It is off the books like reporting on Police shooting civilians as in Ferguson and Abu Ghraib.

Welcome to the post 911 Bush/Cheney Dynasty world. Prison Paradise (on the taxpayer's dime - the 99% that is).




The Chicago police department operates an off-the-books interrogation compound, rendering Americans unable to be found by family or attorneys while locked inside what lawyers say is the domestic equivalent of a CIA black site.

The facility, a nondescript warehouse on Chicago’s west side known as Homan Square, has long been the scene of secretive work by special police units. Interviews with local attorneys and one protester who spent the better part of a day shackled in Homan Square describe operations that deny access to basic constitutional rights.

Alleged police practices at Homan Square, according to those familiar with the facility who spoke out to the Guardian after its investigation into Chicago police abuse, include:

Keeping arrestees out of official booking databases.

Beating by police, resulting in head wounds.

Shackling for prolonged periods.

Denying attorneys access to the “secure” facility.

Holding people without legal counsel for between 12 and 24 hours, including people as young as 15.


Brian Jacob Church was taken to Homan Square after police picked him up in 2012 on terrorism charges he beat at trial. He said police first photographed him for a biometrics database, took him down a long cinderblock hallway on a second floor, and handcuffed him to a bench bolted to the floor. He spent the next 17 hours there – approximately, as it was a windowless room and the lights were kept on overhead – while police attempted an interrogation he described as a fishing expedition.


Homan Square struck Church as the police equivalent of a CIA black site. Inside, he saw “big, big vehicles” that looked to him like the Mine Resistant Ambush Protected used by US soldiers and marines in Iraq and Afghanistan. When his lawyers were finally permitted access, Church spoke with them through a 12ft x 12ft metal cage.

Bill O’Reilly War Correspondent Won the Falklands War Drinking Daiquiris in a Hotel Bar In Buenos Aires





The Brian Williams 2015 Award for Journalistic Accuracy goes to Fox News’ Bill O’Reilly.



In April 2013, while discussing the Boston Marathon bombing, O'Reilly shared a heroic tale of his exploits in the Falklands war:
I was in a situation one time, in a war zone in Argentina, in the Falklands, where my photographer got run down and then hit his head and was bleeding from the ear on the concrete. And the army was chasing us. I had to make a decision. And I dragged him off, you know, but at the same time, I'm looking around and trying to do my job, but I figure I had to get this guy out of there because that was more important.

How Poor are the Poor in Rome? – Pope Francis




This is about a news story ten days old that I just ran into. The pope is on his way to some parish in Rome. He sees a shanty town and tells his driver to pull over and visits.

A good story for a pope dedicated to the poor like Francis of Assisi, his namesake.



While it is a good old fashioned human interest news story - The pope’s camera is rolling for Vatican propaganda. And the poor living in this shanty town all seem to have cell/mobile phones to snap photos of the visiting pope, no doubt e-mailing back to South America in the Andes where most of these shanty town crowd seem to hail from.

It is cynical of me to question – how poor are the poor if the poor can afford cell phones?




Or are we, am I just not being 21st century and should accept cell phones as now part of the human species package?

Daesh /Isis to Offer IPO soon to Help Continue Kill the Poor And Helpless Worldwide


http://islamicvoiceofturkey.com/down-with-daesh/

– Not a very Merciful Startup Corporate Mission Statement by its Deeds. 

All this barbarism or is it merely unacted out video game violence? From all its new geek recruits worldwide? Fresh out of Mom's basements everywhere?

Their main product worldwide besides being the smallest "biggest" Dicks on the planet let alone Islam – is Propaganda – making a proper ghost target for the American and British/European Military Industrial Complex to fire up their smoke stacks and profit engines for a start.

No Compassion. The enemy of humanity and the poor, the helpless, women, the elderly (we aren’t talking about the Birther Koch GOP here – are we – a foreign branch?) etc.

Birth pains of a new global corporation?

What next? Killing pedigree dogs and ponies? Don’t do it? The Animal Rights people will get rid of you fast. LOL

Once the IPO goes forth. With a little BIG push from Saudi cash?

What next with the Wall Street Billions? Philanthropy? 

Daesh / Isis Political Science Hall at Harvard?



Egyptian warplanes struck ISIS targets in Libya on Monday in swift retribution for the extremists' beheading of a group of Egyptian Christian hostages on a beach, shown in a grisly online video released hours earlier.

At the same time, Egypt called for international intervention in Libya against the ISIS. Loyalists of the Syria and Iraq-based group have risen to dominate several cities in the chaos-riven North African nation, just across the Mediterranean Sea from Italy.

After the release of the beheading video Sunday night, the tiny Christian-majority home village of more than half of the 21 Egyptians believed killed by the extremists was gutted by grief. Inside the village church, relatives wept and shouted the names of the dead in shock.

"What will be a relief to me is to take a hold of his murderer, tear him apart, eat up his flesh and liver," said Bushra Fawzi in el-Aour village, as he wept over the loss of his 22-year-old son Shenouda. "I want his body back. If they dumped it in the sea, I want it back. If they set fire to it, I want its dust."


The 21 — mainly young men from impoverished families — had travelled to Libya for work and were kidnapped in two groups in December and January from the coastal city of Sirte. In the video, the group is marched onto what is purported to be a Libyan beach before masked militants with knives carve off the head of each. The killing of at least a dozen of them is clearly visible, though it was not clear from the video whether all 21 hostages were killed.

ISIS/Daesh - Breeding Ground for Recruits - Has Its Roots In 60 Years of Refugee Camps in the Middle East





The above article suggests that the Islamic State is an assertion of the Sunnis to take over all the countries in the Middle East and ethnically cleanse them of Shia pockets of existence.

Since religion is involved, let's use ignorance as a substitute word for religion here, it is only the common factor for warlords to appeal to the personal prejudices of the ignorant masses of the Middle East, many of whom now are pouring out of repressive dictatorships in that region.

That a Saddam or an Assad are men who in the past held together a tightly held political concentration camp of many peoples and cultures under one national label that pleased economic and military masters in London and DC since the end of World War One when all these artificial Petroleum Company drilling maps became the defacto political maps in that region.

That the Arab Spring came and went and now new pro-western dictatorships are in place to replace old pro-western dictatorships. Some coincidence. Yeah right.

The best Obama can do, short of another full Erection Dick Cheney/ Georgy Bush 41/43 chock full of deficit nuts, full scale boots on the ground war is to keep the monster, monsters of the Middle East at bay until the end of his besieged admin not unlike that of Bill Clinton.

The future is ugly in this modern day Reformation of Islam so to speak with the Sunnis being the Catholics and the Shias being the Protestants in this ugly ignorant political religious mess in the Middle East.

Michele Ferrero – Nutella King Dead at 89





And so it happened to Michele Ferrero, Italy’s richest man and the maker of Nutella, who died on Feb. 14 at the age of 89, after a long life of hazelnut chocolate-coated success that took him from a small town in Italy all the way to a fortune worth $23.4 billion.

Ferrero inherited the homonymous company in 1957 from his father, Pietro Ferrero, who owned a bakery in Alba in Piedmont, a region known for the production of hazelnuts. As the story goes, Pietro Ferrero had created in the 1940s a paste of hazelnuts and chocolate (in short supply during the war) which he then turned into a spreadable product called supercrema gianduja.

In 1964, Michele Ferrero rebranded the spread, giving it a more international-sounding name: Nutella. And that was about it.


Nutella’s success—soon followed by other international chocolate and candy hits such as Ferrero Rocher, Kinder Surprise Eggs, and Tic Tac—turned what was a small town business into the fourth-largest candy maker in the world. Ferrero now buys up 25% of the world’s production of hazelnuts.

Is George Zimmerman Alone Today on Valentine’s Day – Psycho!


Is George Zimmerman, the hero of pure white American culture alone today on Valentine’s Day?

George who is an honorary “White Man” and likes to roll around with Black males in the grass is not queer and it would seem is certifiable as 1950s George Romney and Scott Walker “white” “normal” “straight”and believes in three channel TV, the flag and police shooting minorities on sight, has been described by his most recently recorded "normal" slut girlfriend as a “Psycho”.

Unidentified, redacted Whore-like girlfriend of record below seems to be the unstable one in that brief intense relationship. Whatever.

Happy Valentine’s Day George and your next victim of love!



She explained that Zimmerman became angry after she told him she didn't want to take the relationship further, and they also argued over a painting she had that he wanted returned. Zimmerman made threats and threw the wine bottle, which didn't hit her, she said.

Detectives described her as "extremely emotional, crying, mad and upset" and said she became reluctant to cooperate when she realized that officers might be conducting an investigation. 

She called her former boyfriend "that psycho, George Zimmerman" and said several times that she should have known better than to get involved with him.

The ex-girlfriend, whose name is redacted, told investigators that she had had an "intimate relationship" with Zimmerman since the end of last year.


"She indicated that this began at a time when she was emotionally vulnerable," the report said.

Republicans to Cut Social Security Benefits by 19% in 2016 – First Cut With Disability Payments



You lower the benefits to the disabled; you make them homeless or starve. Then again some with 19% cut benefits will then qualify for Medicaid supplemental and Food Stamps.

Could cost more - this phony accounting trip to eventually rob the whole Social Security Trust Fund.

I have to agree with one of the comments about how Republicans feel safe in their gated communities – safe enough to fantasize and masturbate on all the people they hate on like minorities, the poor, the aged, the disabled, children…


On the very first day of the new Congress, House Republicans passed a rule, later adopted by the full House, which would prevent the common practice of rebalancing funds. What this does is lay the groundwork for a 19% cut in disability benefits.

That’s a horribly devastating cut for individuals – most of whom are in their 50’s and in poor health – to absorb beginning next year. In fact, since most disability recipients receive barely $1,200 a month, a cut of nearly 20 percent could mean the difference between affording food, medicine, clothing or paying bills. It is an unspeakable option and one that we are determined to
prevent.


Earlier this month, President Obama suggested a budget that would do exactly what has been done 11 times in the past and that is to rebalance funds between the two programs. The response by the House to block that is merely an attempt to manufacture a crisis where none exists.

No comment from Franklin Graham on Chapel Hill Muslim Hate Crime Murders


The Victims: Deah Barakat 23,  (left) his wife Yusor Abu-Salha, 21, (center) and Abu-Salha’s sister, Razan Abu-Salha, 19, of Raleigh.

Read more here: http://www.newsobserver.com/2015/02/11/4547742_chapel-hill-police-arrest-man.html?rh=1#storylink=cpy

No comment so far from Franklin Graham as to whether the murder, execution style, in their home of three Muslim Students in Chapel Hill was a hate crime or merely a parking space dispute gone too far. 

Chapel Hill and North Carolina are home turf to America’s biggest Islamophobe and hater, the so-called rev. Franklin Graham, HQed in Boone North Carolina.  

Franlin btw lives on the good will of the business created by his Religious TV Performer Billy Graham from days gone by.

Franklin as you well know has his greasy K(KK)ristian hand in just about every medieval, backward and just plain inhuman political thing coming out of the State capital in Raleigh these days.

Not to mention constantly stirring the pot of hate locally in North Carolina hoping to break into a national market for his thing.



CHAPEL HILL — The father of two of three students shot to death in Chapel Hill on Tuesday says the shooting was a “hate crime” based on the Muslim identity of the victims.

Chapel Hill police said Wednesday morning that a dispute about parking in the neighborhood of rented condominiums near Meadowmont may have led Craig Stephen Hicks to shoot his neighbors, Deah Shaddy Barakat, 23, and his wife Yusor Mohammad Abu-Salha, 21, and Abu-Salha’s sister, Razan Mohammad Abu-Salha, 19, of Raleigh.

But the women’s father, Dr. Mohammad Abu-Salha, who has a psychiatry practice in Clayton, said regardless of the precise trigger Tuesday night, Hicks’ underlying animosity toward Barakat and Abu-Salha was based on their religion and culture. Abu-Salha said police told him Hicks shot the three inside their apartment.

“It was execution style, a bullet in every head,” Abu-Salha said Wednesday morning. “This was not a dispute over a parking space; this was a hate crime. This man had picked on my daughter and her husband a couple of times before, and he talked with them with his gun in his belt. And they were uncomfortable with him, but they did not know he would go this far.”

Abu-Salha said his daughter who lived next door to Hicks wore a Muslim head scarf and told her family a week ago that she had “a hateful neighbor.”

“Honest to God, she said, ‘He hates us for what we are and how we look,’” he said.

Karen Hicks, the wife of Craig Hicks, said Wednesday afternoon that she does not think religious bigotry was behind her husband’s actions.

“I can say that it is my absolute belief that this incident had nothing to do with religion or the victim’s faith, but in fact was related to long-standing parking disputes my husband had with various neighbords regardless of their race, religion or creed,” Karen Hicks said in a statement.


Ripley Rand, the U.S. prosecutor for the Middle District, which includes Chapel Hill and Durham, said federal authorities had not launched their own investigation of the crime. Rand said that from the early details of the Chapel Hill investigation, the killings Tuesday did not appear to be part of a targeted campaign against Muslims.

Christianity's Violent Path Through History

Tom Brokaw Calling the Kettle (Brian Williams) Black


I don’t know how and when all this fuss over Brian Williams got started. Who is behind his downfall. He did keep embellishing his war hero story with each telling. I see that he used to be WCAU-TV Jersey reporter in his past btw. This recent FOX NEWS story about his being robbed selling Christmas Trees for charity as a teenager is FOX digging up all dirt and reinforcing the anarchist views of the right that all “Liberal” media is a lie, like Fox News is even considered news etc.
I am impressed that Brian got this far on his good looks. Only 18 college credits between community college and two major universities before being an intern in the “Carter” admin – a major sin for the right. I do not think that a college degree is good for anything anymore.
Williams is just a $200,000 a week talking head on the nightly news. He is what he is. Not much.
I see that Tom Brokaw, his predecessor, is rumored to have stated that Williams should be fired, said it to his cronies at NBC.
But speaking about talking heads, delusional fantasies, and the truth, I lost all respect for Brokaw after one of Ronald Reagan’s Press Conferences, where I expected an intelligent comment from Brokaw after the conference that did not happen on the news wrap up of that event. During the News Conference in the 1980s, one of the reporters asked Saint Ronny what could the average American due to protect themselves from the HIV virus.
RR answered with a solution of drawing and freezing a supply of one’s own blood so as to not be contaminated then with HIV tainted blood in the marketplace. While it was a solution for rich people who could afford such a luxury solution, I failed to see how it answered the question about what the “average” citizen could do to protect themselves. No comment or complaint from Tom Brokaw on that delusional comment by RR.
Not commenting on the news, just reporting it, is in many ways just a rubber stamp on the words printed out by your Public Relations spin doctor.

Whatever.

GOP Redneck Christians Go Apeshit Over Obama's Crusade Slavery Jim Crow Remarks at National "Prayer" Breakfast



The American RedNeck Church supposedly Christian after it is first WHITE and SHHH (Inbred) got offended when the President make some comparisons to religion fucking up the world in the past on the Christian side of the line like it it doing now on the Muslim side of human culture that is going on now in the Middle East. 

Joe Scarborough on MSNBC Morning Joe and IMUS in the Morning took the offended redneck party line about how pure and white and perfect Christianity is NOW and never mind the bloody past etc. 

RELIGION sucks and ruins everything in the modern age. Bunch of free lunch parasites holding onto the worship of books and power.
