* At Lawrence, Kansas on 2017 Oct 1 (Sun), a mysterious shooting killed 3 people and injured 2 more: “Lawrence community shaken after 5 people shot on Massachusetts Street” (http://fox4kc.com/2017/10/01/lawrence-community-shaken-after-5-people-shot-on-massachusetts-street/). Investigations are ongoing.
* Las Vegas, Nevada on 2017 Oct 1 (Sun) late night, Stephen Paddock fatally shot 50 people out of 22,000 who were attending a country music festival: “Brother of Las Vegas Shooter Stephen Paddock Says Family ‘Dumbfounded’” (https://www.nbcnews.com/storyline/las-vegas-shooting/stephen-paddock-las-vegas-shooting-suspect-identified-n806471). Hundreds were injured. Updates are incoming.
Sad and indignant speeches will be made by our so-called great leaders in the government and major corporations, but actual solutions will continue to be a pipe dream. The Democrat Party thinks disarming nearly all law-abiding civilians is a good rule (because lambs are ripe for the slaughter), and the Republican Party thinks arming as many people as possible is a better idea (because guns should be handed out like Halloween candy). Ideally, only competent and honorable people should be allowed to own guns for self-defense, hunting, target practice, competitions, etc. We cannot be a great nation if we have low standards, outdated traditions, and impractical regulations.
America’s foreign policy also needs major updates. NATO, Saudi Arabia, and Israel insist the world must assist the moderate-terrorist rebels who are from various nations and who are gradually losing the proxy war in Syria. That’s because Russia actually fights terrorism, which makes NATO look incompetent or corrupt, thus, the US mainstream media wants everyone to believe Russia is the boogie monster. NATO, Saudi Arabia, and Israel said the Assad regime in Syria is oppressive tolerant protesters, dissidents, rioters, and other rebels. This oppression justifies the overthrow of the Assad regime. However, Saudi Arabia is conducting a brutally oppressive war in eastern Saudi Arabia and Yemen:
* “Saudi-led coalition admits killing civilians in airstrike in Yemen ‘by mistake’” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2moEQiI5u9k)
* “Red Cross: 1 Million Cholera Cases Likely in Yemen by Years End” (http://www.mintpressnews.com/red-cross-1-million-cholera-cases-likely-in-yemen-by-years-end/232632/)
The empire of the Zionist US kleptocracy will not restrain or punish the Saudi regime, because Saudi Arabia uses to abundant oil and gas to support the petrodollar’s global scams (inflation tax, cartels, sanctions, etc) and to buy lots of hi-tech military weapons and other advanced technology from the US and other members of NATO. The Assad regime in Syria refuses to obey the US empire, the Saudi regime, and the Israeli regime, thus, the US empire wants a new and compliant regime in Syria or wants to cripple Syria by internecine squabbling, which usually means in the Middle East a failed state of terrorism. This is one example out of many on how NATO’s war on terrorism is highly counterproductive.
Then there is Israel, which satisfies the self-righteousness of liberals and the superstitions of Zionist Christians. Thus, the US corporate-governments sends a full range of qualitatively superior welfare (which secretly includes nuclear weapons) to Israel, and Israel continues its decades long genocide and apartheid against Palestine:
* The Netherlands donated solar panels to Palestine, but Israel declared these solar panels were illegal. Thus, Israel confiscated and destroyed the solar panels. The Dutch government formally protested against Israel’s robbery and vandalism against Palestine: “Israel Seizes Solar Panels Donated to Palestinians, Smashes Electronics” (http://news.antiwar.com/2017/07/03/israel-seizes-solar-panels-donated-to-palestinians-smashes-electronics/).
* The European Union donated money and resources to build schools in Palestine, but Israel announced these schools did not obtain legal permission. Thus, Israel destroyed the schools. Belgium wants compensation from Israel: “Demolition of education: Israel razes EU-funded schools in West Bank” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tuJeLErYyXY).
* Norway's largest trade union, the Norwegian Confederation of Trade Unions (LO), voted in favor of an economic, cultural, and academic boycott of Israel in order to defend the human rights of Palestine. As expected, various Israelis said this boycott is based on bigotry, anti-Semitic racism, ignorance, hypocrisy, and other Pharisaical excuses: “‘Enough is enough’: Norway’s trade unions vote to boycott Israel over Palestine” (http://truthngo.org/enough-enough-norways-trade-unions-vote-boycott-israel-palestine/).
* The United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) recognized Hebron’s Old City and the Ibrahimi mosque as endangered Palestinian heritage sites. The US empire and its spoiled rotten child Israel tried to stop this UN vote, but they failed. Israel claimed the Palestinians are using fake history to attack Israel’s real history: “Israel furious as UNESCO rebuffs its claim to Hebron” (https://electronicintifada.net/blogs/charlotte-silver/israel-furious-unesco-rebuffs-its-claim-hebron).
* Israel said its history is real, but the Palestinians have counterfeit history, thus, Israelis have the Holy right to steal the property of Palestinians who have been living in the same place for many decades: “Kicked Out: Israeli authorities evict Palestinian couple from home they lived in for 53yrs” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-S8ssPvfbuY). We all know the Torah and Talmud are 100% based on scientific facts. The Torah perfectly describes the formation of the universe, the Milky Way galaxy, the solar system, and the Earth’s evolution.
* The UN Secretary-General Antonio Gutteres said Gaza, Palestine is under an extremely inhumane sanction by Israel: “Blockade of Gaza should be lifted as it's ‘dramatic humanitarian crisis’ – UN Secretary-General” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r88IrMKYLoo).
* By a large margin, Interpol voted to include Palestine as a member, but various Israelis proclaimed the vote to be illegitimate, bigoted, anti-Semitic, racist, pro-terrorism, pro-Nazism, and other crazy and sanctimonious accusations: “Israel threatens retaliation after Interpol accepts Palestine as new member” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F1lBStVK3jg). Israel frequently boasts it is the only democracy in the Middle East (and majority tyranny is suppose to be the best form of government). However, Israel only accepts votes that yield to Israel, and Israel rejects votes that seek independence from Israel’s God complex.
Besides the moderate-terrorist rebels in Syria, the US empire also supports the protesters and rioters in Venezuela: “Empire Files: Abby Martin Meets the Venezuelan Opposition” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ig6yFP8HjVQ&t). The Venezuelan government is facing an economic sabotage by its political and corporate opponents. The opposition purposely decreased or entirely stopped its industrial and agricultural production, used human lines and burning objects to block roads, threatened the established government and its civilian supporters, and attacked the established government and its civilian supporters with bombs, firearms, and hand-held weapons.
While the US corporate-government supports violent insurgents in Syria and Venezuela, the US corporate-government does not permit violent protests or riots inside America. The US corporate-government fatally suppressed the 2014 Bundy standoff in Nevada and violently eliminated the Native American protest against the Dakota Access Pipeline. The US corporate-government struggled to stop the black American protests and riots (e.g., Black Lives Matter, I Can’t Breathe, and Hands Up Don’t Shoot) in various American cities.
The US corporate-government repeatedly boasts it is spreading liberty and justice around the entire world, but this is a partial truth mixed with lies. The US empire promotes liberty and justice when they are convenient for the US oligarchy and its loyal servants, but the US empire also supports corrupt and incompetent governments that obey the US empire, and the US empire aids inhumane rebels who obey the US empire.
The US empire uses propaganda and agitprop to sell its hypocrisy. For example, the US and other NATO members use the White Helmets in Syria to dishonestly portray the Syrian rebels as moral and competent rebels. According to various reports, the White Helmets receive most of its resources and training from NATO members especially Britain. The White Helmets have been caught suspiciously performing the mannequin challenge during rescue missions, storing and hiding weapons for terrorists or violent rebels, prioritizing the lives of terrorists over innocent bystanders, refusing to fully and honestly cooperate with international aid workers, carrying the ISIS flag and chanting ISIS slogans, etc. The White Helmets are actually emergency aid workers for terrorists.
The US corporate-government does NOT provide military weapons, military training, military support, and other benefits to the secessionists in Spain, even though the Spanish government is using violent police to stop the secession vote in Catalonia, Spain:
* “Referendum in Catalonia: Police firing rubber bullets in clash with voters” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FiEDIpcoPzY)
* “Counting victims, not votes: Police suppress Catalan independence referendum” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dk45YaQnmg0)
* “Catalan Referendum: Civil guard move in on polling stations amid vote” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=76E7pFOIII0)
* “Suffer for democracy? Police crackdown at Barcelona school during independence referendum” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3AkY6p34cZQ)
The US empire’s foreign and domestic policies are based on double-standards. Some governments are more corrupt and incompetent, and other governments are less corrupt and incompetent. The comparison could also be optimistically based on moral integrity and aptitude. The US corporate-government is generally one of the LESS awful regimes out there or one of the better regimes around the world. However, the US corporate-government suffers from delusions of grandeur, which misleads the US regime into believing it knows what is best or better for everyone in any situation.
* The US corporate-government has been horribly failing in Iraq since the 1990s: “Orphaned by war: Children in Iraq exposed to rape, abuse, might be killed for organs – UNICEF” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bRWk2Sekcb4). The US government also has failing foreign policies in Libya, Afghanistan, Sudan, Iran, Ukraine, etc. These foreign interventions create blowback such as failed states, the conflicting migration of refugees and troubled immigrants, and vengeance by indignant foreigners.
* The Los Angeles Police Department gave conflicting, false, and vague statements regarding two cops, Arturo Urrutia and Daniel Ramirez, killing a young man Eric Rivera with gunshots and/or a crushing police car. Eric Rivera was “guilty” of carrying a green water-gun: “Parents of man fatally shot by LAPD, then run over by a police car, call for criminal charges” (http://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-ln-lapd-shooting-20170920-story.html). This is one example out of many for why the US corporate-government is super expensive, but it typically has low approval ratings.
* The US corporate-government (and Western Europe) used sales and marketing hype, the decadent agitprop of Zionist liberal Hollyweirdo, news propaganda that’s based on partial truths mixed with lies, and superficial government slogans to brainwash people around the world into believing more is better. Thus, the average US citizen consumes lots of products and generates lots of waste, and the rest of the world is trying to emulate the US. However, this high consumption rate on a per-capita level and national scale does NOT properly dispose of or recycle its pollution and waste. Thus, the world has a problem with expanding environmental degradation or the spread of toxicity: “The world's trash crisis, and why many Americans are oblivious” (http://www.latimes.com/world/global-development/la-fg-global-trash-20160422-20160421-snap-htmlstory.html). In addition, global overpopulation will only worsen this problem, but humane eugenics is beyond the comprehension of the self-righteous Zionist-liberal Democrat Party and the superstitions of the Zionist-Christian Republican Party. Both parties are addicted to consumerism gone wild.
* Publicized court records revealed the very obvious: Monsanto uses incomplete science mixed with lies to sell its dangerously overrated products. For one example out of many, Monsanto ghostwrote opinion news articles for Henry I. Miller, a Robert Wesson Fellow in Scientific Philosophy and Public Policy at the Hoover Institution at Stanford University. Henry I. Miller was a shill for Monsanto, or he pretended to be a neutral expert who factually defended Monsanto’s controversial products. In return, Monsanto secretly offered various benefits to Henry I. Miller. Monsanto said these publicized court records are a violation of Monsanto’s privacy rights: “Monsanto Caught Ghostwriting Stanford University Hoover Institution Fellow’s Published Work” (http://sanfrancisco.cbslocal.com/2017/08/04/monsanto-ghostwriting-stanford-university-hoover-institution-fellow/).
Monsanto has a long history of screwing over many people to make as much money as possible. According to public information, Monsanto has been primarily owned and/or managed by Zionist Jews. Monsanto normally suffers minimal punishments and frequently enjoys maximum benefits from the US government, because Monsanto enjoys revolving doors and insider deals with the US government. Facebook and Google also conspire with the US government to push their agenda for global control of resources and labor: “Clinton campaign chief thanked Facebook for ‘help & support’ – WikiLeaks” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CUzfdEBqwsA). This is not a free market, but a socialist dystopia or a fascist’s dream-come-true. A free market is based on property rights for everyone, a balance of private rights and public responsibilities, and voluntary exchanges based on facts.
Ideally, the US corporate-government should know when to lead and when to follow. In the real world, the US regime insists on perpetually seizing the leadership, even when the US regime lacks the capacity to lead and/or depends on a malfunctioning moral compass. The US corporate-government contains too many by money-junkies and egomaniacs, and then the US corporate-government stupidly wonders why it has declining credibility.
