Fortune Teller by Todd Alexander

When one of our own passes away...

Neil Rogers, a frequent commenter on our blogs and poet extraordinaire has taken the road home. 

These words come to mind...

         Peace, love, positive and respect











A couple by Neil

a poem for human beings

meadows contain beauty
wolves howl to the stars
dreams are hidden pastures
lies stumble where truth starts
governments ridicule
psychopaths are afraid
a disconnected mind
of itself is just a shade
elitists line their pockets
corporations dance with doom
song birds sing the rivers
the feilds come into bloom
unity in motions
ebb and flow of tide
charge a living heart
refresh and energize



To all you awake people out there

Something had touched them,
had been poured through them
Like an elixir of precious gems
A cup of profound awakening
No amount of words could do justice
They could only suckle on the teet of ever expanding
And let their thoughts wander into the divine Everything
To learn as children do
To live as children
open and in love forever ready to play
To live to the fullest of every moment
To give with every inch of their heart
In full abundance of all that ever could be
Through all that ever was
They had become love,
Not an easy task these days
But somehow that is what they had become
Respondent only to the harmonic calling
That resonates and fills them full of themself
And that was beautiful in every sense,,,,

No More Hesitation

Israeli Sniper Photo

In the good old days law enforcement paper targets often were pictures of Bin Laden and other 'terrorist' depictions.

Now it seems that pregnant women, women with children, old men and women and various domestic threats are in the cross-hairs. Practice makes perfect. The Israelization of police gives a whole new meaning to "we are all Palestinians now.'


Law Enforcement Targets Inc. has the desensitization going with their line of  'No More Hesitation.'. "As low as 50 cents each."

If you take a look at the product description at the website for the above photo you will see that the company does not even spell children correctly. For some reason that seems to be appropriate in the continuing saga of  'we' as the enemy.

Round and Round

As long as their are doubters,
the official tale of Sandy Hook must go round and round...sometimes literally.

NASCAR's Michael Waltrip gets into the swing of things for this upcoming season by driving the Newtown car, complete with a 'text to donate $10'  to make someone a little money.







Hardly a moment goes by without yet another gun story to ponder on. This time the bionic runner gets his cash flow Nike ad pulled after being accused of shooting his girlfriend.

I can't imagine how this little oddity will be topped...but it probably will.




Not as dramatic as Oscar Pistorius 's stunt but here's a reminder to not to take your BB gun on the roof if you don't want to draw attention to yourself as a potential terrorist sniper.

Luckily the NRA's Wayne LaPierre is in Nashville to ease the tensions. He's speaking at the National Wild Turkey Federation convention. I wanted to go and have some fun until I found out the federation wasn't about hard liquor and hard drinking but was about promoting killing some birds.

It almost makes you want to take a sea cruise and just relax.


 
Now the CDC wouldn't lie to us, would they? This must be true then when they say that drugs known as synthetic marijuana have been implicated in acute kidney damage. This fake stuff is even loaded with some kind of Chinese made compounds.

This would seem to be good advertising for legalizing marijuana to help save the kids but it may be that the feds are sending a message to them to buy from the cartels and forget the unsanctioned poor excuse for a smoke. The big banks need to launder some more money.


Some things are getting back to normal.

Los Angeles residents are reportedly on edge today following reports that hundreds of armed and extremely dangerous Los Angeles Police Department officers are resuming regular patrolling duties after the conclusion of Tuesday’s manhunt for rogue ex-cop Christopher Dorner. “I mean, just knowing they’re out there is terrifying—how can I feel safe when these maniacs are on the loose in my neighborhood?”

 

At least we can breathe a little easier and feel safe knowing that drone jockeys will finally get the recognition they deserve. It's about time the war machine gave them an incentive to excel. It's a tough job bombing women and children in Afghanistan from a trailer in Nevada. That joystick doesn't work all by itself. Give 'em a medal and a bottle of Wild Turkey.


Which jock will get to kill the first American here in the homeland? The nominee to head the CIA ain't saying.

"I have asked Mr. Brennan if he believed that the President has the power to authorize lethal force, such as a drone strike, against a U.S. citizen on U.S. soil, and my question remains unanswered. ~ Rand Paul

That's not the only question left unanswered Rand. How about the CIA's dope running enterprise and what they know about 9/11? Never mind...he wouldn't answer those either.

A Real Holocaust - The 68th Anniversary of the Firebombing of Dresden

Holocaust - a sacrifice consumed by fire 









Put simply, the firebombing of Dresden was an act of terrorism. There was no military justification, only perverted political ones. The number of dead will always remain in doubt due to great number of refugees that swarmed the city to escape the Soviets who were close by.  Estimates go up to 500,000 killed. An argument can be made that more civilians died in one day at Dresden than the total number of jews who died during the entirety of the war. It seems to be that more died in Dresden than did in the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki combined.

By remembering what happened at Dresden we can create the idea of a chance that this type of terrorist holocaust can be prevented in the future. It is a hope we must maintain. The present Judeo-Anglo-American-NATO-Israel alliance remains a threat to humanity. 



On the evening of February 13, 1945, an orgy of genocide and barbarism began against a defenceless German city, one of the greatest cultural centres of Europe. Within less than 14 hours, not only was this city reduced to flaming ruins but an estimated quarter of its inhabitants, possibly as  many as a quarter of a million, had perished in what was one of the worst massacres of all time.



The Blood of Dresden - Kurt Vonnegut 

The author Kurt Vonnegut was a prisoner of war in Dresden during the allied bombing raids and was later forced to dig out bodies from the ruined city. In papers discovered by his son after his death, he provides a searing eyewitness account of the ‘obscene brutality’ that inspired his novel Slaughterhouse-Five

Dresden Holocaust: Slaughter Of 500,000 German Civilians

There was a three-hour pause between the first and second raids. The lull had been calculated to lure civilians from their shelters into the open again. To escape the flames, tens of thousands of civilians had crowded into the Grosser Garten, a magnificent park nearly one and a half miles square.  The second raid came at 1:22 a.m., with no warning. Twice as many bombers returned, with a massive load of incendiary bombs. The second wave was designed to spread the raging firestorm into the Grosser Garten.

If ever there was a war crime, then certainly the Dresden Holocaust ranks as one of the most sordid of all time.

Apocalypse 1945: the Destruction of Dresden by David Irving



Franz Kurowski in his book "Bombs over Dresden":

"The notion that the actual number of people missing was actually much higher than the lists of missing people reported lies in the special role Dresden had: Between 500,000 - 600,000 refugees from other cities came here to seek shelter. Many of those refugees groups were completely destroyed, so that nobody was left to issue a report on who was missing. That is especially true for those refugees whom were given shelter by Dresden families and then burnt to ashes in their cellars. Who would be left to search for those refugees? Here we can apply what we can apply for all catastrophic events: Every survivor only searches for his/her missing relatives and friends.
And friends or relatives those refugees were not… "

Terror Bombing: The Crime of the Twentieth Century

Dresden was a hospital city for wounded soldiers. Not one military unit, not one anti-aircraft battery was deployed in the city. Together with the 600,000 refugees from Breslau, Dresden was filled with nearly 1.2 million people. Churchill had asked for "suggestions how to blaze 600,000 refugees". He wasn't interested how to target military installations 60 miles outside of Dresden. More than 700,000 phosphorus bombs were dropped on 1.2 million people. One bomb for every 2 people. The temperature in the centre of the city reached 1600^o centigrade. More than 260,000 bodies and residues of bodies were counted. But those who perished in the centre of the city can't be traced. Appr. 500,000 children, women, the elderly, wounded soldiers and the animals of the zoo were murdered in one night.

Dresden was considered to be one of the most beautiful cities in Europe because of its midieval architecture. Most of Dresden's beautiful Midieval architecture was destroyed completely.

Members of the RAF bombing crews became increasingly concerned about the morality of creating firestorms. Roy Akehurst was a wireless operator who took part in the raid on Dresden.

It struck me at the time, the thought of the women and children down there. We seemed to fly for hours over a sheet of fire - a terrific red glow with thin haze over it. I found myself making comments to the crew: "Oh God, those poor people." It was completely uncalled for. You can't justify it.

An Eyewitness Account

In 20 minutes of intense bombing, the city became an inferno. The second bombing raid came three hours after the first and was “intended to catch rescue workers, firefighters and fleeing inhabitants at their fullest exposure.”

My grandmother saw the remains of masses of people who had desperately tried to escape the incinerating firestorm by jumping head first into the lakes and ponds. The parts of their bodies that were submerged in the water were still intact, while the parts that protruded above water were charred beyond human recognition. What she witnessed was a hell beyond human imagination; a holocaust of destruction that defies description.


Some say the motive was to deliver the final blow to the German spirit -- that the psychological impact of the utter destruction of the heart centre of German history and culture would bring Germany to its knees once and for all.

Some say it was to test new weapons of mass destruction, the phosphorous incendiary bomb technology. Undoubtedly the need for control and power was at the root. The insatiable need of the dominators to exert control and power over a captive and fearful humanity is what drives acts of mass murder like the Dresden firebombing and Hiroshima.

I think there was also an additional hidden and cynical motive which may be why full disclosure of the Dresden bombing has been suppressed. The Allies knew full well that hundreds of thousands of refugees had migrated to Dresden in the belief that this was a safe destination and the Red Cross had been assured Dresden was not a target. The end of the war was clearly in sight at that point in time and an enormous mass of displaced humanity would have to be dealt with. What to do with all these people once the war ended? What better solution than the final solution? Why not kill three birds with one stone? By incinerating the city, along with a large percentage of its residents and refugees, the effectiveness of their new firebombs was successfully demonstrated. Awe and terror was struck in the German people, thereby accelerating the end of the war. And finally, the Dresden firebombing ensured the substantial reduction of a massive sea of unwanted humanity, thereby greatly lessening the looming burden and problem of postwar resettlement and restructuring.

We may never know what was in the psyche of those in power or all the motives that unleashed such horrific destruction of civilian life - the mass murder of a defenseless humanity who constituted no military threat whatsoever and whose only crime was to try to find relief and shelter from the ravages of war. Without the existence of any military justification for such an onslaught on helpless people, the Dresden firebombing can only be viewed as a hideous crime against humanity, waiting silently and invisibly for justice, for resolution and for healing in the collective psyches of the victims and the perpetrators.

Pig Path

Pig Path by Lorella Paleni

Article II, Sec. 3, of the U.S. Constitution requires that, "The President shall from time to time give to Congress information of the State of the Union and recommend to their Consideration such measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient."

There's nothing in the requirement for the 'state of the union' address that it has to contain anything factual. The president is not under oath. There's no legal threat of perjury or fraud from whatever he wants to say.  It's fair game for the agenda. Always has been.

The Dorner drama is the great lead in. Another dead cop, a standoff and a sacrifice by fire. The movies don't get much better than this.

Any thoughts?

"Liberty Leading the People" - Another Little Psyops From Those Who Brought Us 9/11?

I'm not sure this story is true.

(Reuters) - France's Louvre-Lens museum shut two galleries on Friday after a woman scribbled with a black marker pen on its star painting, Eugene Delacroix's "Liberty Leading the People".

Police were questioning a 28-year-old woman who was arrested on Thursday evening after writing "AE911" across a 30 cm section at the bottom of the work, a judicial source said.

The museum said an initial examination suggested the damage was superficial and the famous work could be easily restored.

It may be as this commenter opined...

Sounds like COINTELPRO. You don't deface a national monument unless you want to discredit what you are pretending to represent.

The BBC is reporting that the woman is 'unstable' and that is exactly how the meme of  'conspiracy theorists' goes these days. Ask legitimate questions and call out the lies of government and media must be an unstable condition. Say that a lunatic 9/11 truther defaced a world treasure brings the insinuation that all in the category of so called truthers are a danger to society.


Going on 12 years since 9/11 there is still no shortage of paid cover-up shills writing stories demonizing  those who know the lies of that day. These articles are planted somewhere on the web virtually every day.

It is a sign that the desperation of madmen and murderers knows no time limit. They are still worried that their house of cards will soon fall...and rightfully so.

What's the old saying...Krishnamurti: “It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society.”

The Fruit of Justice is Peace

Last July, 83 year old Megan Rice and two others cut through fences to reach the Oak Ridge Y-12 "terrorist site" of enriched uranium manufacturing for nuclear weapons.

Their protest of leaving human blood and simple words of truth at a wall of death resulted in their arrests for “injuring national defense premises,” which carries a maximum prison term of 20 years.


Their trial for speaking truth to power is scheduled for May. 

“So much blood has been shed or would be shed by any of the (nuclear) weapons. ... I had prepared myself, if I was called upon, to die for this truth. I would certainly be willing to die for such a message,” Rice says.

Rice bristles when the events of last July are called an act of civil disobedience. She believes America’s nuclear weapons program is at cross purposes with providence’s plan for humanity and peace on earth.

“I can’t accept the expression of civil disobedience when we were obeying the stated laws of this country and of international laws and treaties. When a citizen knows of a crime being committed, that person has an obligation to oppose it and to reveal it. I would call it civil resistance, or civil obedience, clearly.”

Rice says Tennesseans should “wake up” and demand a halt to creating and stockpiling more fissionable material.

“It’s not too late to rise up and invite the appropriations given to maintain Oak Ridge National Laboratory to transform their use into projects, into buildings, into industries we all need ... that are fulfilling real needs of real people. That can be done. Let us transform this facility and (produce) creative new projects that are important, that will produce far more jobs and a far more sustainable economy.”

Swords into plowshares.

All things are possible, the sister says.

“Woe to the empire of blood.” More

All I can say is thanks to these folks of conviction and may their trial be a forum for peace that may somehow help to prevent the hellbent chaos of nuclear war, the road to which we are steadily heading down.
