Henk Hofland en de Massa 21


Sinds het einde van Koude Oorlog is het Westen niet zo vol van onzekerheden geweest. Dat heeft gevolgen voor de strijdbaarheid van de massa’s… Er is een publieke afkeer van de buitenlandse politiek gegroeid, en wat daar onverbrekelijk bij hoort: de uitoefening van macht.
Henk Hofland. Machtsstrijd. 4 maart 2015

De terminologie alleen al: 'de strijdbaarheid van de massa's.' Doet deze formulering u ergens aan denken? En deze bewoordingen: 'de vaderlandslievende eerzucht en de strijdlust [zijn] verloren gegaan'(Henk Hofland. Mondiale krachtmeting. 12 maart 2014). Komt de volgende terminologie u bekend voor: 'een populistisch alarmisme heeft [wortel] geschoten.'? (Henk Hofland. Het machteloze Westen. 17 juli 2013).

De afgelopen jaren heeft de redactie van De Groene Amsterdammer opiniemaker Henk Hofland de ruimte gegeven om zijn extreem-rechtse opvatting te etaleren, zoals dat bij gebrek aan 'vaderlandslievende eerzucht en strijdlust' een 'populistisch alarmisme wortel heeft geschoten' waardoor de 'strijdbaarheid van de massa's' dramatisch is afgenomen, met als gevolg dat 'er een publieke afkeer' is 'gegroeid' van 'de buitenlandse politiek, en wat daar onverbrekelijk bij hoort: de uitoefening van macht.' Met dit laatste bedoelt hij het voeren van oorlogen, waarbij de overgrote meerderheid van de slachtoffers ongewapende burgers zijn, onder wie vrouwen, kinderen, bejaarden. Hoflands standpunt verschilt in dit opzicht niet van die van de nazi-leiders, waarbij 'oorlog de voortzetting' was 'van de politiek met andere middelen.' Deze opvatting is in het nucleair tijdperk zo mogelijk nog weerzinwekkender dan tijdens de Tweede Wereldoorlog, omdat de consequenties bekend zijn en omdat de desastreuze gevolgen nog omvangrijker zijn geworden, de gruwelen, de massamoord. Wat eens ondenkbaar leek is realiteit geworden. Dat is de werkelijkheid die schuilgaat achter de Hoflands woordenbrij. In De Groene van 29 januari 2014 citeerde hij Von Clausewitz's  adagium ‘Oorlog is de voortzetting van de politiek met andere middelen,’ om zich af te vragen of 'die wijsheid nog van toepassing [is]?' Vooral zijn taalgebruik verraadt de dwaasheid van de meest gerespecteerde columnist in het kleine kikkerland. Het plegen van massamoord onder burgers een 'wijsheid' noemen, getuigt van een misdadige krankzinnigheid. Met zijn bewering in De Groene van 11 februari 2015 dat 

President Poetin geen compromis [wil], zoals de praktijk van deze oorlog aantoont, en het dus noodzaak [is] voor het Westen om grenzen aan de Russische expansie te stellen. We naderen het stadium waarin van Poetin alles te verwachten valt,

werkt hij enthousiast intussen mee aan de paniekzaaierij waaruit een Derde Wereldoorlog tussen nucleaire grootmachten kan voortvloeien. En dit alles, terwijl hij, net als ieder ander, weet dat het westers geweld om een 'regime change' te forceren in Afghanistan, Irak, Libië, en Syrië is geëindigd in bloedige burgeroorlogen, waardoor ISIS nu op de drempel van Europa staat. Hofland verzwijgt tevens dat 'de strijdbaarheid van de massa's,' die als kanonnenvoer moeten dienen, noodzakelijk is om de westerse elite onbeperkte economische 'Lebensraum' te verschaffen. 'De vaderlandslievende eerzucht en de strijdlust' zijn de absolute voorwaarden waarmee Hofland en zijn economische elite denken de 'Mondiale krachtmeting' te zullen winnen, overigens net als de nazi's vóór hen dit meenden. Pas dan zal het duizendjarige rijk van 'het vredestichtende Westen' over de hele wereld heersen. Zo niet, dan zal 'Poetin de Atlantische eenheid [indirect]' treffen en de mensheid in chaos ten onder gaan, aldus suggereert Hofland met zijn simplistische neoliberale ideologie. Hofland bewijst dat de Oostenrijkse econoom en filosoof Ludwig von Mises gelijk had toen hij erop op wees dat elke 'ideologie oorlog teweeg brengt.' Net als iedere opiniemaker met een beetje hersens weet ook de nestor van de polderpers dit. Hij is tevens op de hoogte van het feit dat het kapitalisme een cultuur van roof en roofbouw is, anders was de accumulatie van kapitaal in het Westen nooit mogelijk geweest, en was iedereen even rijk dan wel even arm gebleven. Maar juist omdat hij dit weet, ziet hij zichzelf gedwongen het neoliberalisme met leugens te verkopen, en dat doet Hofland moeiteloos, vooral ook omdat hij een ingeboren minachting koestert voor de 'massa's,' om zijn eigen jargon te gebruiken. De permanente staat van oorlog of dreiging met oorlog schept de status quo die door hem wordt gepropageerd. En op die manier zorgt hij er als klein radertje in het propaganda-proces voor dat de kloof tussen arm en rijk kan blijven toenemen en het militair-industrieel complex blijft groeien. Hofland is zo bezeten dat hij zelfs nu nog, met al één been in het graf, deze grootschalige terreur blijft verdedigen. Zijn denken is niet gebaseerd op humanitaire uitgangspunten, maar op machiavellistische machtspolitiek. De Britse emeritus hoogleraar John McMurtry schreef op de kritische Noord-Amerikaanse website Global Research de volgende, heldere uiteenzetting hierover:


THE MORAL DECODING OF 9-11: BEYOND THE U.S. CRIMINAL STATE, THE GRAND PLAN FOR A NEW WORLD ORDER

As a moral philosopher with social value systems as my primary object of analysis, my first thoughts in understanding '9-11' were of the system motives, known methods, and objective interests driving the event which could coherently explain it. Whatever the immediate hold of the official conspiracy theory on the public mind,a rational explanation is required which is consistent with the suppressed facts and the organizing geo-strategic plan on both sides of the event.

For over a decade before 9-11, there were three U.S.-propelled global trends that almost never come into the understanding of 9-11 itself. 9-11 truth seekers themselves have focused on the foreground technics and the transparent motive for oil. But these are undergirded by deeper sea-shifts of geopolitical and economic wars of seizure and destruction by other name against which the world’s people were rising. To compel books of analysis into one unifying frame, transnational corporate-rights treaties from NAFTA to the Maastricht Treaty to the WTO overrode all other rights across borders;the private 'financialization' stripping of social sectors and welfare states had advanced across the world; and the totalizing movement of the system across all former 'cold war' and cultural borders was 'the new world order' in formation. Together these vast shifts towards transnational money-sequence rule of all reversed centuries of democratic evolution. And every step of the supreme value program was life blind at every step of its global operationalization. [xii]

Yet states and cultures were so sweepingly re-set into unaccountable transnational corporate and bank rule that few recognized the absolutist value program being imposed on the world.  Fewer still recognized all was unfolding according to plan.

What has been least appreciated about the long-term strategic plan unfolding on both sides of what was immediately called '9-11' – CallEmergency! –- is that supreme banker and global money director David Rockefeller had summarized 'the plan' to fellow money-party elites across borders at the Bilderberg-meeting in Baden Baden Germany in June 1991 — exactly at the same time that the Soviet Union and its resistant barriers fell. [xiii] Bear in mind that Rockefeller among other initiatives appointed both Kissinger and Brzezinski for the lead in both the supranational Bilderberg and Trilateral strategic bodies of which he was the lead patron, not to mention financed the unemployed academic Leo Strauss out of Germany to be the godfather 'philosopher' of the 'new world order.' Rockefeller speaks very precisely to his fellow 'elite of the elite' of the Western world where only Americans and Europe are invited and reportage excluded:

'A supranational sovereignty of an intellectual elite and bankers is surely preferable to the national auto-determination practiced in past centuries,' Rockefeller said. [xiv]

Observe the foundational new concepts in place of responsible government and democratic accountability. They are now consigned to 'past centuries.' A 'supranational sovereignty' has replaced them and is morally 'preferable.' Rockefeller is not exaggerating. By 1991 a 'supranational sovereignty' had already developed in the form of transnational treaties conferring override rights of 'profit opportunity' on transnational corporations and private bank rule of government finances across borders – procedurally trumping any elected legislatures and their laws which are inconsistent with their thousands of treaty articles, even when the system eventually leads to world depression as now. [xv] The source of the legitimacy of governments, ultimate sovereignty, has now passed as preferable to 'an intellectual elite and bankers': more exactly, academic strategy servants and transnational money sequences overriding all human and planetary life requirements a-priori by the supreme moral goal.

Ask which function of the world’s people and means of life is not now in debt to Wall Street and the private global banking system it leads. Ask which means of life from food and water to autos and pension cheques is not thus ultimately controlled, or which commodity is not under oligopolist corporate sway. The 'surely preferable' objective was already achieved by 1991 or in advanced global institutional motion. Now supreme over all else so that all else is now accountable to it, and it is not accountable to anything above it, 'the plan' seemed all but accomplished by Rockefeller’s own considered words.

But what if people resist the new world rule with no life coordinate or constraint at any level of its execution? We may recall that during the death-squad rule of the Argentina generals at this time in which civilians were murdered and tortured in the thousands, National Security Adviser Kissinger congratulated the junta on their 'very good results — The quicker you succeed the better.' Kissinger also heartily approved of the earlier massacres and torture in Chile.

The resistance was in this way pre-empted long before the Soviet Union fell, and after 1990 had no block in the Middle East and Central Asia either. 'The plan' has been very long term. Kissinger the geo-executer was originally appointed to high office by Rockefeller (to lead the Council on Foreign Relations back in 1954), and – to give a sense of the long-range trajectory of the plan design – was, incredibly,the U.S. administration’s first choice for an 'independent 9-11 Commission.' The obviously not-independent Kissinger was still not a problem for 'the free press' and official discourse. But when he was required to disclose his business connections, he withdrew to stay covert in his ongoing backroom capacities and enrichment.

The 9-11 sacrifice is better understood within the deep-structural context of the unfolding plan…

A new strategic manifesto from the Pentagon was in preparation entitled 'Defense Planning Guidance on Post-Cold- War Strategy,' completed on February 18, 1992. [xvii]  Prepared under the supervision of Paul Wolfowitz, then the Pentagon’s Undersecretary for Policy, it was disclosed in March of 1992 by the New York Times. After the first invasion of Iraq, it became known as the Project for the New American Century, publicly released from 1997 to 2000 prior to 9-11.

Again we may note the long arc of planning control, crisis and war as required. Item 6 of the strategic plan defined the agenda in general terms: 'In the Middle East and Southwest Asia, our overall objective is to remain the predominant power in the region and preserve U.S. and western access to the region’s oil.'

Oil-rich Iraq had in fact been invaded – not only to privatize its peerlessly high-quality surface oilfields but to destroy its region-leading socialist infrastructure.Iraq became accessible for invasion as the arms-bankrupted Soviet Union was in collapse. We may observe that the covertly genocidal destruction of Iraq bridged Republican and Democrat administrations over three changes of government — disclosing how the covert state operates as a moral constant across party fronts.

The actions confirm and express the one supreme moral goal identified above. They bridge from Saddam himself as CIA-payroll killer and war proxy against Iran to recapture lost Iran oilfields dating from 1980 to 1988 to the fall of the USSR in 1991 as the axis of the long-term strategic plan of global turnaround to 'America’s century' still to come before and after 9-11.But between 1990 and 2003 Saddam was transmuted from former ally to aggressor against Kuwait in an invasion given an official green light from the U.S. government, to 'mushroom cloud' threat with invented 'weapons of mass destruction.'

In fact, National Security Adviser Wolfowitz explained after the invasion found nothing of the kind: '[We had] virtually no economic options with Iraq because the country floats on a sea of oil.'

Observe how the invasion is conceived as obligatory for a reason that expresses the supreme value goal. Observe that it occurs less than two years after 9-11, which gave the open-cheque justification for the bombing and occupation which allowed the expropriation of Iraq’s society’s oil resources.

The problem was not the evil Saddam or the 'weapons of mass destruction,' the standard reverse projection. [xviii] The problem was the Iraqi people themselves and their developed oil-funded social life infrastructure between the supreme oil-fields and their U.S. corporate control and privatization. 9-11 was,thus, first the justification for invading Afghanistan — to clear the way for pipelines into the former Soviet republics from the Caspian Sea region — pipelines that prompted the U.S. representative to predictively warn the Taliban: 'Either you accept our offer of a carpet of gold,' or we bury you under a 'carpet of bombs.' [xix] 9-11 was then the necessary basis of justification for the bombing of Baghdad for the unifying supreme objective. 

In fact,seldom published in the corporate media keeping the glare of publicity away from the supreme moral objective, the publicly owned and managed oil revenues of Iraq had been invested since the 1950’s in Iraq’s advanced social infrastructure, leading the Middle East with free higher education, high health standards, and near universal livelihood security. The world’s oldest civilization was robust in organizational capacities long before the CIA-asset Saddam was installed.

Despite his murdering his way to the top in this function, even Saddam could not destroy the system because socialist government had been achieved decades earlier by a powerful oil-workers’ union base and a population glad to have all education free, an efficient low-cost foods delivery system, and the most advanced public healthcare system in the Middle East. So there was not only the 'sea of oil' as a motive to assert U.S. control in the new 'supranational sovereignty' of the world. Just as important in this ultimate moral cause, what the U.S. covert state always seeks to destroy by any means, isa successful social infrastructure without private big oil, bankers and transnational corporations free to control it towards higher profit opportunities.

Unravelling the Supreme Moral Doctrine behind the U.S. Covert State
  
The genocide of Iraq, as the long-opposing 'evil empire' was in free-fall, is the most important strategic anchoring prior to '9-11.' Covert strategic policy to forward the supreme goal is by now self-evident, but the inner moral logic is assumed not penetrated.  The most influential of Rockefeller’s protégés in this regard is the 'philosopher king' of the U.S. covert state, Leo Strauss. While he never worked in a philosophy department or has any training in logic, his concept of 'natural right' fits exactly to the 'supranational sovereignty' of private money-sequence rule of the world…

The moral thought system is not unlike that of Mein Kampf without the racist rant, camouflaged everywhere in practice by the method of big lies — 'noble lies' as Strauss exalts them. [xx] The innermost value driver is a perpetual war of dispossession of the weaker for the private transnational money-capital multiplication of the rich.

Nothing in this doctrine is too mendacious, greed-crazed and murderous if it fulfills the plan of this limitless private-capital rule as ultimate moral ground and compass. In Strauss’s canonical teaching of U.S. national security advisers and intellectual following, the ruling moral absolute is expressed by the core master idea behind the 'supranational sovereignty' of an 'intellectual elite and bankers':

'limitless capital accumulation – — the highest right and moral duty.' [xxi]

This is the ethical absolute of the covert U.S. state and its strategic decision structure. And there is no internal limit within this moral universe to life means seizure from poorer societies and resource looting for the supreme goal.  It is the natural and absolute Good.

To justify its meaning, the Straussian canon adopts a potted reading of Western moral and political philosophy from Plato through Hobbes, Hegel, Nietzsche, Marx and Weber. This impresses American political operatives of the faith, but Strauss is a failed philosopher turned down by Paul Tillich for his post-doctoral Habilitation and only saved from academic ruin in Germany by Rockefeller grant money. While not taken seriously as philosophy anywhere else, it is worth decoding its talmudic involution for the borrowed ideas that drive its covert state disciples and neo-fascist public 'intellectuals' in America.

The ultimately organizing idea is to commend all forms of conquering and limitlessly expanding private capital as 'natural right and law' with genocidal subjugations justified in glowing moral terms. For example, 'noble lies' is the moral category for limitless mendacity. One may wonder how educated people can be so bent out of moral shape. So I now concisely provide what cannot be found elsewhere: the inner logic of the supreme doctrine as perversions of great thinkers.

Its framework of meaning and value helps us to understand why the 9-11 event could easily follow for the managers of the covert U.S. state and its Straussian planners as not at all anomalous or evil within their moral logic. 9-11 follows as a maximally rational and unique tool to achieve the objectives in fact achieved by 9-11, and the geo-strategic cabal behind it is servilely linked from the beginning to the dominant private transnational corporate and banking interests exemplified by David Rockefeller.

To understand this brutal moral universe and its connection to 9-11, the 9-11 wars and a globalizing police state, we need to understand the deformations of its basic organizing ideas. Plato’s idea of 'the noble lie' means, in fact, a myth or parable to communicate an underlying truth about the triadic human soul of reason, spirit and appetite which, Plato argues, should be reflected in the construction of the ideal state (in which the rulers are communist in their common property to keep them uncorrupted and true).

But through the prism of U.S. global money-party rule a la Strauss this idea becomes the principle of lying to the public to keep the vulgar herd – the people themselves – ignorant and obedient. The philosophies of Hobbes and Hegel are also grist for this mill. Hobbes argues that 'man is moved by a restless desire for power after power that ceaseth only in death,' but this brute desire in the 'State of Nature' is tamed by 'the covenant of peace' ordered by the internal sovereign as absolute.

Via Strauss and the U.S. covert state this becomes right is might and the ultimate 'natural right' is limitless private capital power and empire with no end of totalization across the peoples and lands of the world. Hegel too suits a fascist-capitalist reading since he argues 'the State is the march of God  through the world,' and war itself is history’s test of which State is a higher realization of 'the absolute Idea.' But Hegel still envisaged a 'universal state' to supersede the competitive private-property division of capitalism in the 'universalization of right and law on earth.'

Once again U.S. private money-capital power with no bound, the supreme moral goal in the Rockefeller-Strauss doctrine, is opposite to the classical philosophy it invokes. Once more dialectical development of reason to more coherently inclusive conception and life is reversed into one-way private money capital sequences maximized to rule the world with the U.S. military as its instrument of force and terror.

However it conceals its meaning, all positions come down to this underlying value code – as may be tested on whatever transnational money-sequence demand, right or war is launched next. 9-11 construction in such a moral world does not violate this value code. It expresses it in self-maximizing strategic turn to achieve the ultimate goal.

Friedrich Nietzsche may provide the best fodder for the doctrine when he advises that 'life is essentially appropriation, injury, overpowering of what is alien and weaker, imposing of one’s own forms, and at its mildest exploitation' in his superman vision of 'beyond good and evil.' For philosophical Nietzscheans, this is code for the inner meaning of the angst of artistic creation. But this meaning is predictably lost on the U.S. covert-state school seeking the 'supranational sovereignty' of 'limitless capital accumulation' as the supreme good with the 'intellectual elite' as servants to it. Karl Marx’s link of capitalism’s success to productive force development is the ultimate equivocation upon which this ruling doctrine depends — making no distinction between productive capital providing life goods and unproductive money sequencing hollowing out the world by money-capital multiplication. Marx, it must be acknowledged, did not made the distinction himself since this mutation of capital came a century after his death. [xxii]

Finally Max Weber’s Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism does not ground this doctrine of 'limitless capital accumulation as the highest right and duty' with the state to serve it, as Strauss again torturously suggests. In fact, Weber deplores any such perversion of public authority. His capitalist model is a young Benjamin Franklin speaking of money saved and invested as like having 'a breeding sow,' not a transnational money-sequence juggernaut of eco-genocidal expansion. Revealingly, Benjamin Franklin and 'the protestant ethic' in general were most concerned about non-waste, which Strauss explicitly excludes from the meaning of 'limitless capital accumulation.' For Leo Strauss and his U.S. 'national security' disciples, the capitalist may waste as much as he wants by 'natural right.'

Further, in complete inversion of source, the greed worship of the U.S. state, its patrons and its academy disciples reverses the model of the 'spirit of capitalism' exemplified by Benjamin Franklin in proprietary claim on knowledge and inventions. He, in fact, refused to patent his famous Franklin Stove because he believed that no innovation or new knowledge from which other people could benefit should be denied them — just as he himself had benefitted from the community of knowledge and science as the distinguishing feature of being a civilized human being.

In short, it is important to recognize how twisted the covertly ruling doctrine is. No element of it is life coherent or true to the classical thinkers in which it costumes itself. In the end, only the transnational U.S. money party has any place in its rights and obligations, and any sacrifice of other life to its supreme goal is legitimate — linking back to the Nazi-U.S. corporate axis that nearly destroyed the civilized world once before. [xxiii]


Money-Capital Power Ueber Alles: How Economic Rationality Leads the Plan 

The U.S. culture of money-sequence “rationality” is the underlying intellectual and moral disorder which leads to 'limitless money capital accumulation' as the supreme moral goal. In formal terms, the equation of rationality to atomic self-maximization is assumed a-prioria cross domains. With globalizing Wall-Street-led 'financialization,' this 'rationality' becomes equated to private money-sequence multiplication across all borders as the ultimate Good. This is the innermost mutation of value logic and goal, the moral DNA, from which the cancerous world system develops on both sides of 9-11. [xxiv]

This first principle itself is,in fact,built into formal economics, decision and game theory, and strategic science, as I explain step by step in 'Behind Global System Collapse: The Life-Blind Structure of Economic Rationality.' [xxv] It is axiomatic but unexamined, life-blindly absolutist but not recognized as morally problematic. To make a long story short, competitive self-maximization in the market is assumed to produce 'the best of possible worlds' by mathematical proof. 'Pareto efficiency' is believed to demonstrate this by private money exchanges between self-maximizing atoms apriori stripped of all life properties, relations, society, conditions of choice, and all natural and civil life support systems. Pareto himself recognized outside this formula what has since been covered up.

Not only is the formula consistent with most having remaining impoverished by the 'optimum' of 'no-one worse off,' what none who cite 'Pareto efficiency' as a standard academic mantra ever acknowledge or even recognize. Pareto himself is in no doubt of the implication. As the fascist party he belongs to rules Italy and Rockefeller creates the Council of Foreign Relations, he asserts with approval: 'Very moral civilized people have destroyed and continue to destroy, without the least scruple, savage or barbarian peoples.' [xxvi] We glimpse here at the roots the supreme morality built into 'economic science' itself.

Yet, as demonstrated in 'Behind Global System Collapse,' even the most liberal canons of America, including John Rawls’ classic A Theory of Justice, are grounded in the same meta principle. [xxvii] Rationality and value are equated to self-maximizing gain with no limit within game-theoretic interactions as the sole limiting framework of 'limitless money capital acquisition.' The generic equation defines, indeed, the dominant intellectual and economic mind-set of America and the global system in action since 1980. The cabal internal to U.S. national security strategic planning follows the moral logic to its most radical conclusions with no constraints by life or law.

The one absolute moral meaning is the spread of U.S. economic, military and political power as good for all, or, more exactly in Straussian language, limitless private transnational money-capital expansion as the highest right and moral duty. Only what is consistent with or serves this supreme morality, it follows, deserves to exist. This is the alpha and omega of the covert doctrine and state, and careful reading can find no disconfirmation beneath the rhetoric of 'noble lies.'

The Iraq Paradigm:  Genocide Strategy From 1990 On

The Iraq line of the geostrategic plan from 1990 to 2001 and after is a paradigmatic articulation of the covertly ruling moral logic. It launches into the theatre of war as direct war attack when U.S. Ambassador to Iraq, April Glaspie, is instructed to green-light Saddam’s already known plan to invade Kuwait in 1990: 'The US. has no opinion on your Arab-Arab conflicts, such as your dispute with Kuwait,' she advises. To formalize the lie as official and traditional, she reports: 'Secretary Baker has directed me to emphasize the instruction, first given to Iraq in the 1960s, that the Kuwait issue is not associated with America.' [xxviii]

The dispute was, in fact, over Kuwait’s drawing out oil from reserves underlying Iraq as enabled by the colonial split of the oil-rich Kuwait province from Iraq — the classic divide-and-rule policy holding also in the division of oil-rich Kurdistan among four manufactured states. Saddam had good reason to trust the U.S., not only by the long-term official promise of neutrality but as blood-mix ally when he waged a U.S.-supported war of aggression against Iran – which still remains the target. Note the big lie to provoke the supreme crime of war has remained without any glare of publicity that might derail the plan.

When Saddam did exactly as planned by invading Kuwait, Bush Sr. raved about the Nazi-like aggression against a weaker country in the reverse projection that always defines the covert U.S. state before, through and after 9-11. So in the same name of 'preventing aggression' U.S. 'defense' forces invaded Iraq to destroy any life capacity it had to defend itself – always the strategy since the defeat in Vietnam. The genocide began by the massacre of many tens of thousands of fleeing soldiers. Recall the weeping young woman, the Kuwait ambassador’s daughter, planted next to baby incubators falsely claiming the monster Saddam had murdered the babies. This reverse projection was soon to be made real thousands of times over inside the victim society of Iraq.

Reverse projection of evil is the meta law of U.S. psy-ops propaganda in the deadly conflicts and wars it covertly starts. This is the supreme moral program in action as 'noble lies.' In this case, the air-bombing after surrender continued from U.S. and 'special ally' Britain as 'sanctions of Iraq' to 'prevent aggression' — again the reverse projection. In fact the bombs continually fell on the water and electricity infrastructures of the defenseless people and against all lines of repair to restore either — 'the line in the sand against Iraq aggression.' We might bear in mind that Wolfowitz was Undersecretary of Defense under Secretary Cheney at this time, their positions not unlike those at the time of 9-11.

Air-bombing, as Bertrand Russell long ago pointed out, is inherently fascist in erasing the killed and maimed from sight while ensuring impunity for the bombers of defenseless people.  But all such mass murder is only collateral damage to the supreme moral goal as 'natural right and law.'  The air bombing of Iraq’s water and electricity supplies dressed in one big lie after another continued in slow mass-murderous destruction of the people and their social life infrastructures years on end.

Denis Halliday, United Nations Humanitarian Co-ordinator for the mission finally called it 'genocide' (Wikipedia calls it 'the Persian Gulf War') when he resigned in 1998 to protest against 'the crimes against humanity.' But no-one knew until the U.S. Department of Defense Intelligence got out that the first sweep of Iraq was planned down to the mass killing of the infants and children. September 11 in 2001 is better understood in this wider context of strategic planning by the covert U.S. terror state. For years the non-stop bombing of the people’s central life-water support system deliberately engineered mass dying from diseases of children in the hundreds of thousands.

What was predicted by Harvard Medical School researchers from the continuous civilian infrastructure bombing by the U.S. military – the deaths of over 500,000 children- was verified by the counts scientifically taken at the risk of researchers as the bombing continued month after month with NATO support. [xxix]

Full-spectrum corporate money-sequencing through Iraq under the Comprehensive Privatization Program would only be enabled by '9-11' down the road. But first the bases of advanced social life organization needed to be destroyed. The later-leaked U.S. Defense Intelligence document entitled 'Iraq Water Treatment Vulnerabilities' expresses the moral DNA at work. I cite the key lines of U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency reports because they reveal the character of the supreme moral goal and its strategic planning. 'With no domestic sources of water treatment replacement or chemicals like chlorine' and 'laden with biological pollutants and bacteria,' the leaked Defense Intelligence Agency report says (italics added), 'epidemics of such diseases as cholera, hepatitis, and typhoid' will 'probably take six months before the [drinking and sewage water] system is fully degraded.'

The document continues, Conditions are favorable for communicable disease outbreaks [by the one-way air bombing] with the 'most likely diseases during next sixty-ninety days of diarrheal diseases (particularly children) acute respiratory diseases (colds and influenza); typhoid; hepatitis (particularly children); measles, diphtheria, and pertussis (particularly children); meningitis including meningococcal (particularly children), cholera.' 'Medical Problems in Iraq,' dated March 15, 1991, reports that the 'water is less than 5 percent of the original supply — diarrhea is four times above normal levels — Conditions in Baghdad remain favorable for disease outbreaks.' The fifth document in June reports 'almost all medicines in critically short supply' and 'Gastroenteritis killing children – - in the south, 80 percent of the deaths are children.' [xxx]

In short, no limit to covert U.S. planning of indiscriminate mass murder for the supreme goal exists. The number who died in 9-11 suddenly pales in comparison. In all cases, it lets 'those inimical to U.S. interests' know that there is no limit to how far the covert terror state will go for the supreme moral code not yet decoded. Combined with wars of aggression before and after 9-11, raining fire and explosions on civilians from the air so that no defense or escape can be made, saturating the fields of public meaning with big lies civilly dangerous to unmask, and bringing vast enrichment and new powers to transnational corporate conglomerates and their past and present CEO’s of the acting U.S. state — all become clear in their ultimate meaning once decoded. As the Democrat U.S. Secretary of State responded to the question of the 500,000 killed children, 'we think the price was worth it.' No price is too much to pay for fulfillment of the transcendent project of the global U.S. state and its private capital rule as 'the Free World.' 'Those inimical to our interests' are those who oppose or are in the way of it, and thus 'hate our freedom.'

The  Strategic Logic of Value through 9-11

By 2000 it was very clear to the U.S. strategic planners that the opening up of the Middle East and Central Asia after the fall of the Soviet Union had to be further pursued before it was too late.The great regret for the planning personnel of the coming Bush Jr. administration such as Paul Wolfowitz was that Iraq had not been taken over on the first invasion. The need for “full spectrum dominance” across the Middle East and Central Asia was thus the essential argument of the Project for the New American Century (PNAC), with the prescription that no other “regional power”was able to contest this dominance.

The PNAC more explicitly recognized the strategic necessity for what Zbigniew Brzezinski had already called for in 1998 in The Grand Chessboard: American Primacy and Its Geostrategic Imperatives – namely, 'the circumstance of a truly massive and widely perceived direct external threat' to ensure public support for 'the United States, as the sole and, indeed, the first truly global power.' The now once untouchable Central Asia, formerly of the USSR, was thus targeted as essential not only for its vast oil reserves, but to complete rule of the 'first truly global power.'

The Project for the New American Century was more explicit than Brzezinski in 2000, the year before 9-11. As former Defense Minister of Canada, Paul Hellyer, lucidly puts it in a recent address (italics added):

'The authors of this American "Mein Kampf" [the PNAC] for conquest recognized the difficulty of persuading sophisticated Americans to accept such a gigantic change in policy. So they wrote the following (subsequently removed from the record):  "Further, the process of transformation, even if it brings revolutionary changes, is likely to be a long one, absent some catastrophic and catalyzing event – like a new Pearl Harbor."' [xxxi]

Excepting the Vietnam War ending in military defeat – but vastly enriched armaments and connected private bank and corporate interests – the hitherto favoured strategic-plan mode had been local death squads along with pervasive American media propaganda against the victims as 'communists' and 'sponsored by the USSR.' But once there was no remotely equal opponent in mass-kill capacities and transnational trade treaties now bound governments within corporate-rights law as overriding domestic laws and policies, anything became permissible. The plan for the 'supranational sovereignty' of 'limitless capital accumulation' in 'full-spectrum power' required only 9-11 to derail world-wide peace, environmental and anti-corporate globalization movements growing into uncontrollable civilian capacity across borders and continents.

People were waking up to the one-way destruction of life systems at all levels. Iraq was not alone in the genocidal clearance of former socialist infrastructures uniting peoples across ethnic lines. A far more democratic Yugoslavia was set up and destroyed by financial means in the same year by the 1991 U.S. Foreign Operations Appropriations Law after the 1980’s multiplication of public interest rates to over 20 percent prime devoured social life support structures across the world.

This was the unseen financialization base of a global war against public and worker economic and political powers that was reaping a cumulative global civilian reaction of opposition to 'the plan.' 9-11 ensured against the fightback of financially dispossessed peoples with the signature reverse operation – diversion to an external 'terrorist threat' that stood in the way of more sweeping transnational corporate wars on more peoples being dispossessed. Civil war in Yugoslavia long targeted by Reagan’s secret National Security Directive 133 as early as 1984 was predicted and occurred after the underlying employment and welfare structure of multi-ethnic Yugoslavia collapsed under deliberate financial destabilization. (The villain of the piece, Slobodan Milosevic, was himself a major banker).

In oil-rich Somalia, two-thirds of its territory had been leased out to four transnational oil companies by 1993 – a condition of lost grounds of life for Somalians behind the primeval civil war ever since. These are merely expressions of the underlying logic of value and the plan for its supranational rule beneath the lights of publicity as 'discretion.' The examples are myriad from Latin America to South-East Asia to sub-Sahara Africa and the Middle East to Israel and Canada today. But a descriptive law of the supreme moral goal holds across all diverse instances of its expression.

Strategic planning for the destruction of social life infrastructures of peoples for private money capital gain without limit is the ultimate value program throughout from the U.S. to China. 

The people of the U.S. are not exempt from their own system of covert state rule, although democratic heroism here joins with the larger world against it. This is the ultimate moral struggle on earth today. The moral politics of the disorder are the enforcement of the descriptive law.  This is the ruling meta program, and it is carcinogenic by its nature. The supreme motive force it multiplies by is privately self-maximizing money possession (individual and corporate)seeking to be limitlessly more.More = Better. Less = Militant Demand for More.

The '9-11' event is the epicentre of the supreme moral objective seated in Wall Street. It is best understood as an ultimate strategic maximizer of the italicized formula. Exactly expressed, it's ultimately regulating axiology is private money inputs through all life to maximally more private money outputs in ad infinitum progression…

At the highest level of anchoring moral meaning, this private money-demand rule seeks to be absolute and total across borders with no quarter. 'Full spectrum dominance' is its military method. Yet what distinguishes it from the Nazi rule it connects with as prior transnational corporate partner in war making is that in the U.S. private money demand multiplication at the top is the only organizing value meaning. 97% of its money command is produced by private bank notes of others’ debt to the private bank system centred in Wall Street. Yet despite this very narrow centre of control,almost no global territory or field of life is outside its rule and strategic plan.

The 'Trans-Pacific Partnership' is but its latest expression – focusing on private knowledge-patent money sequencing to rule out generic pharmaceuticals and other life-and-death knowledge commons from which higher profits cannot be made. The one underlying common principle throughout all phases is transnational corporate and bank money sequencing to more. Its converse is to override all life requirements at all levels, and strategically planned crises and wars are the advancing lines of control and enforcement.

What is not recognized through all the genocidal wars, ecocidal results, collapsing social life support systems and falling wages, however,is that this ruling value sequence rationally leads to '9-11' as maximal strategic payoff progression. 'Absent some catastrophic and catalyzing event,' the Project for the New American Century declared before 9-11,

' — the U.S risks the loss of a global security order that is uniquely friendly to American principles and prosperity.'

Decoded, this meant in theory and practice more transnational private money sequence progression to ever more control over all still-uncontrolled assets for more and richer returns without limit of take or life destruction. But these are unspeakable lines of value meaning, and that is likely why, for example, Wikipedia keeps altering the entry of my name with conspiracy theory attributions and smears to ensure that such deep-structural diagnosis does not gain currency. That is how this system works, and analysis will provide more variations of this gagging method on 9-11 ahead.

The strategic necessity of the 9-11 event for “global security order”can even be asserted by the principal architects of the administration under which it happened, and those who observe this can be dismissed as “conspiracy theorists”. Reverse projection is, as always, the essential psychological operation. The documented but shouted-down logistics included V-P Cheney having control of the air-defense of NORAD six months before the event to manage the relocation of the stand-by fighter jets to Alaska and Canada on September 11, 2001, and more broadly, no jet intervention for almost two hours until the full operation was completed.

The tell-tale signs that it was not the 'foreign act of war' which was trumpeted were that President Bush Jr. continued exposed in set-up photo ops with school children during the 'attack on the U.S.' Not a wheel turned in U.S. jet intervention or homeland protection. No evident defensive action or response whatever occurred. Until strategic security from public uprising and awareness was established, the blame on foreign terrorists was repeated non-stop around the clock with no-one raising a question.

Weeks thus passed in inaction. As the future director of the 9-11 Commission said years before 9-11: 'The effort and resources we devote to averting or containing this threat now, in the ‘before’ period, will seem woeful, even pathetic, when compared to what will happen "after."' [xxxii]And so one war of invasion after another was made upon entirely unproven sources of the 'attack' who were, in fact,states and peoples standing in the way of vast publicly owned oil-fields. These had to be taken for control by U.S. and allied state armies for the private transnational corporations employing their leaders in and out of office. Money-sequence oil to quadruple-plus more has been the story ever since. [xxxiii] If 80% of the 19 claimed suicide agents were from oil-ally Saudi Arabia, if none of their identity papers could have survived the destroyed buildings, and if several of these 'hijackers' were apparently still alive, why did none of the vaunted 'free press' ever investigate 9-11?  The 'noble lie' is built into every step.

The total demolition of the buildings on 9-11 was professionally executed – impossible to manage except by a technologically sophisticated state with intelligence support, as former State Secretary for Defense of Germany, Andreas von Bülow, has concisely observed at the first-order level: 'To hijack four big airliners within a few minutes and fly them into targets within a single hour and doing so on complicated flight routes! That is unthinkable, without backing from the secret apparatuses of state and industry.' [xxxiv] Turning huge fireproofed steel-girded buildings in the centre of New York into fuming debris in a few seconds and melting car bodies nearby extends the problem of physical impossibility by jet fires. That is why the firemen were killed by being 'falsely told it was a fire, not military ordnance.' The fire-squad commander who told me this asked me not to name him because of the harm that might come to him 'from the media' —  the 9-11 gag again. Yet the core and deciding issue is strangely avoided by all:

Whatever the technics, every step before and after 9-11 took place in accordance with the supreme moral objective and covert-state strategic methods to execute it.The smoking gun is incinerated buildings. Every step 'before' and 'after' goes back to the motive, the crime syndicate, the plan, the payoffs, the seizures and dispossessions.


Reducing the Auto-Determination of Nations Requires the Plan

To reduce the 'auto-determination of nations practised in past centuries' for the 'supranational sovereignty of an intellectual and banker elite' could only be made possible through 'full spectrum dominance' on the ground as the Project for the New American Century had independently explained, and 'the catastrophic and catalyzing event' required was '9-11,' however it was accomplished.

Nicholas Rockefeller was already speaking of 'the plan' eleven months before the '9-11' call for emergency help when he said to his close friend, Aaron Russo:

'There’s going to be an event Aaron… We are going to go into Afghanistan so we can put a gas pipeline to the Caspian Sea… We are going to go into Iraq to take the oil and to establish a base in the Middle East and we’re going to go into Venezuela and try and get rid of Chávez — Through it, you fight the War on Terror and then you go into Iraq – - the media can convince everybody that it’s real —' [xxxv]

Lest the reader doubt this witness, it has nowhere been disavowed any more than the patriarch’s disclosure of 'the plan' itself which is also available on the right-wing Cato Institute website. All express the underlying but observable moral law of motion of this ruling value system — to acquire maximally more money demand for private use and control with no public or other barrier across internal and external borders by war, trade treaty or any other means whatever the sacrifice of others’ lives. They do not count in the calculus. All life is an 'externality.' There is no step of the covert U.S. state that does not obey the formula.

The legality of international treaty was and remains the transnational legal method already established in the decade before 9-11 to provide the supranational framework of private transnational money-sequence rule as the moral absolute to which all conformed. Coded as 'the global free market,' it is neither free nor a market, but oligopolist corporate control of supply, demand, and inert-state policy. In fact, the supreme morality as defined overrides all economic interests themselves by absolute protection of private transnational 'profit opportunity' alone — with thousands of regulations across borders governed by this moral absolute. This too is testable by examination of the articles of any transnational trade treaty in the NATO control zone.

Policy structures follow in line. Tax, financial, natural resource and investment policies are structured by law and right to ignore all destruction of social and natural life and life capital bases to grow transnational private money sequences to limitlessly more.This is why the self-multiplying money sequencing with no committed life function has expanded in accordance with this moral absolute through and after '9-11.' Observe how the ultimately regulating principles of value prescription and description all conform to one axiological syntax across controllable theoretical, economic, political, and other levels of the global system. [xxxvi]

Thus whatever the world uprisings against it and however destructive of the planet’s social and ecological life bases, this law of motion remains the ruling constant. Not even the life impoverishment of the growing majority and the collapsing of the biosphere itself are allowed to modify its supranational ruling form. Even a tenth of one percent tax on its ruinous money-sequence tides or fraction of legal tender to back them is off-limits.

Not only 9-11 itself, but global policy locks of every kind are the expressions of this ruling moral absolute as inviolable and supreme, however much they destroy people’s lives without any committed life function — the normalization of private-bank compound-interest debts bleeding peoples dry, destabilizing speculations in sovereign currencies and bonds, asset-stripping buyouts and disemploying mergers, predatory repossessions of homes and loan-shark rates on poor debtors including college students with no limit, endless takeovers of productive firms by foreign multinationals with only banknotes, ecologically devastating mega-projects and loot-mining with no environmental or social criteria, lethal armaments manufacture led by bribery for sales to despots, Wall Street intermediations in every project with no life commitment, huge hauls of financial lifeblood from public privatizations to equity capital multiplying outside of securities regulations, stock-market derivatives exploiting fabricated money-sequence tides and futures at the cost of hundreds of millions more hungry people, and — in general — limitless corporate predation of societies’ domestic resources, home markets, worker pay and benefits, and public tax revenues.  

With all regulating life standards thus erased and repelled,a direct question arises: Why would the sacrifice of a few thousand mixed-nation people and two iconic buildings count against this covert value calculus if it reaped the world in payoff to the under one percent  and could always be blamed on the Enemy to achieve even more full-spectrum dominance of the ultimate objective over all life and life systems that limit its growth and universalization?

Conversely, and in particular at the geostrategic armed force level, if any society does not yet fit into the world system as function of it, armed invasion can now follow as 'defense against the terrorists' who have 'attacked America' in 9-11. As U.S. General Wesley Clark has also reported for the public record,this strategic line of war has been explicit in 'U.S. defense' strategic planning for Iraq, Libya, Sudan, Somalia, Iran, and Syria since 9-11.

The ISIS-US Empire – Their Unholy Alliance Fully Exposed

Global Research, March 12, 2015

ISIS made in USA
Let’s be perfectly clear. The United States is not actually at war with ISIS. As Global Research director, economist and author Michel Chossudovsky plainly points out recently, Obama is simply waging “a fake war” against the Islamic State forces, putting on another propaganda show for mainstream media to keep his flock of American sheeple asleep in echo-chambered darkness. With a mere cursory review of recent historical events, one can readily realize that virtually everything Big Government tells us is happening in the world, you can bet is a boldface lie.

For over three and a half decades the US has been funding mostly Saudi stooges to do its dirty bidding in proxy wars around the world, beginning in Afghanistan in the 1980’s to fight the Soviets with the mujahedeen-turned al Qaeda that later would mutate into ISIS. Reagan and Bush senior gave Osama bin Laden his first terrorist gig. Our mercenary “Islamic extremists” for-hire were then on the CIA payroll employed in the Balkans during the 1990’s to kill fellow Moslem Serbs in Kosovo and Bosnia. For a long time now Washington’s been relying on the royal Saudi family as its chief headhunters supplying the United States with as needed terrorists on demand in order to wage its geopolitics chessboard game of global hegemony, otherwise known by the central banking cabal as global “Theft-R-Us.”

The Bush crime family were in bed with the bin Ladens long before 9/11 when that very morning George H W Bush on behalf of his Carlyle Group was wining and dining together with Osama’s brother at the posh DC Ritz Carlton while 19 box cutting Saudi stooges were acting as the neocon’s hired guns allegedly committing the greatest atrocity ever perpetrated on US soil in the history of this nation. And in the 9/11 immediate aftermath while only birds were flying the not-so-friendly skies above America, there was but one exception and that was the Air Force escort given the bin Ladens flying safely back home to their “Terrorists-R-Us” mecca called Saudi Arabia. On 9/11 the Zionist Israeli Mossad, Saudi intelligence and the Bush-Cheney neocons were busily pulling the trigger murdering near 3000 Americans in cold blood as the most deadly, most heinous crime in US history. If you’re awake enough to recognize this ugly truth as cold hard fact, then it’s certainly not a stretch to see the truth behind this latest US created hoax called ISIS.

Renowned investigative journalist and author Seymour Hersh astutely saw the writing on the wall way back in 2006 (emphasis added):
To undermine Iran, which is predominantly Shiite, the Bush Administration has decided, in effect, to reconfigure its priorities in the Middle East. In Lebanon, the Administration has cooperated with Saudi Arabia’s government, which is Sunni, in clandestine operations that are intended to weaken Hezbollah, the Shiite organization that is backed by Iran. The U.S. has also taken part in clandestine operations aimed at Iran and its ally Syria. A by-product of these activities has been the bolstering of Sunni extremist groups that espouse a militant vision of Islam and are hostile to America and sympathetic to Al Qaeda.
The US Empire along with its international partner-in-crime Israel has allowed and encouraged Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates to be the primary financiers of al Qaeda turned ISIS. Even Vice President Joe Biden last year said the same. If Empire wanted to truly destroy the entire Islamic extremist movement in the Middle East it could have applied its global superpower pressure on its allied Gulf State nations to stop funding the ISIS jihadists. But that has never happened for the simple reason that Israel, those same Arab allies and the United States want a convenient “bad guy” enemy in the Middle East and North Africa, hiding the fact that al Qaeda-ISIS for decades has been its mercenary ally on the ground in more recent years in the Golan Heights, Libya, Iraq and Syria.

As recently as a month ago it was reported that an Islamic State operative claimed that funding for ISIS had been funneled through the US. Of course another “staunch” US-NATO ally Turkey has historically allowed its territory to be a safe staging ground as well as a training area for ISIS. It additionally allows jihadist leaders to move freely in and out of Syria through Turkey. Along with Israel and all of US Empire’s Moslem nation states as our strategic friends in the Middle East, together they have been arming, financing and training al Qaeda/ISIS to do its double bidding, fighting enemies like Gaddafi in Libya and Assad in Syria while also posing as global terrorist boogie men threatening the security of the entire world. Again, Washington cannot continue to double speak its lies from both sides of its mouth and then expect to continue having it both ways and expect the world to still be buying it.

A breaking story that’s creating an even larger crack in the wall of the US false narrative is the revelation that Iraqi counterterrorism forces just arrested four US-Israeli military advisors assisting (i.e., aiding and abetting) the ISIS enemy, three of whom hold duel citizenships from both Israel and America. This latest piece of evidence arrives on the heels of a Sputnik articlefrom a couple weeks ago quoting American historian Webster Tarpley saying that “the United States created the Islamic State and uses jihadists as its secret army to destabilize the Middle East.” The historian also supported claims that the ISIS has in large part been financed by the Saudi royal family. Interviewed on Press TV the critic of US foreign policy asked why NATO ally Turkey bordering both Iraq and Syria where the Islamic State jihadists continue to terrorize, why can’t Turkey simply use its larger, vastly superior army to go in and defeat the much smaller ISIS, especially if the US and NATO were serious about destroying their alleged enemy. Again, if ISIS is the enemy, why did the US recently launch an air strike on Assad’s forces that were in process of defeating ISIS? The reason is all too obvious, the bombing was meant to afflict damage to stop Assad’s forces from beating back ISIS that the US is clearly protecting.

Finally, Tarpley reaffirmed what many others have been saying that chicken hawk Senator John McCain is actual buddies with ISIS kingpin Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi. Of course photos abound of his frequent “secret” meetings with ISIS leadership illegally conducted inside Syria. This confirmed fact provides yet one more obvious link between the high powered criminal operative posing as US senator and the so called enemy of the “free world” ISIS.

Recall that iconic photo from June last year of American supplied trucks traveling unimpeded in the ISIS convoy kicking up dust in the Iraqi desert fresh from the Syrian battlefields heading south towards Baghdad. It was no accident that they were equipped with an enormous fleet of brand new Toyota trucks and armed with rockets, artillery and Stinger missiles all furnished by US Empire. Nor was it an accident that the Iraqi Army simply did an about face and ran, with orders undoubtedly coming from somewhere high above in the American Empire. The Islamic State forces were allowed to seize possession of 2500 armored troop carriers, over 1000 Humvees and several dozen US battlefield tanks all paid for by US tax dollars. This entire spectacle was permitted as ISIS without any resistance then took control of Mosul the second largest city in Iraq including a half billion dollars robbing a bank. Throughout this process, it was definitely no accident that the United States allowed the Islamic State forces to invade Iraq as with advanced US airpower it could have within a couple hours easily carpet bombed and totally eliminated ISIS since the Islamic State possessed no anti-aircraft weapons. And even now with the hi-tech wizardry of satellites, lasers, nanotechnology and advanced cyber-warfare, the US and allied intelligence has the means of accurately locating and with far superior firepower totally eradicating ISIS if the will to do so actually existed. But the fact is there is no desire to kill the phantom enemy when in fact it’s the friend of the traitors in charge of the US government who drive the Empire’s global war policy.

Washington’s objective last year was to purposely unleash on already ravaged Iraq the latest US-made, al Qaeda morphed into the Islamic monster-on-steroids to further destabilize the Middle Eastseek a regime change to replace the weak, corrupt, Sunni persecuting Maliki government in Baghdad and ‘balkanize” Iraq into three separate, powerless, divisive sections in similar vein of how the West tore apart and dissected Yugoslavia into thirteen ineffectual pieces. The globalist pattern of bank cabal loans drowning nations into quicksand debt and transnationals and US Empire posts predatorily moving in as permanent fixtures always replace what was previously a far better off sovereign nation wherever King Midas-in-reverse targets to spreads its Empire disease of failed-state cancer. After Yugoslavia came Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Syria, Yemen and Ukraine. It goes on and on all over the globe. The all too familiar divide and conquer strategy never fails as the US Empire/NWO agenda. But the biggest reason ISIS was permitted to enter and begin wreaking havoc in Iraq last June was for the Empire to re-establish its permanent military bases in the country that Maliki had refused Washington after its December 2011 pullout.

With 2300 current US troops (and rising up to 3000 per Obama’s authorization) once again deployed back on the ground in Iraq acting as so called advisors, Iraq is now the centerpiece of US military presence in the Middle East region. Before a doubting House Armed Services Committee last Tuesday, CENTCOM Commander General Lloyd Austin defended Obama’s policyinsisting that ISIS can be defeated without use of heavy ground forces, feebly claiming that they’re on the run because his commander-in-chief’s air strike campaign is actually working. How many times before have we heard generals’ glowing reports to Congress turn out to be lies?

As far as PR goes, it appears the lies and propaganda are once again working. With help from the steady stream of another beheading-of-the week posted like clockwork on Youtube for all the world to shockingly see, not unlike when traffic slows down to look for bloodied car victims mangled on the highway. Apparently this thinly veiled strategy is proving successful again on the worked over, dumbed down, short attention-spanned American population. According to a poll released just a few days ago, 62% of Americans want more GI boots on the ground in Iraq to fight the latest made-by-America enemy for Iraq War III. Incredibly only 39% believe that more troops on the ground would risk another long, protracted war. Again, short attention spans are doomed to keep repeating history as in Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan.

This polling propaganda disinformation ploy fits perfectly with prior statements made a few months ago by America’s top commander General Martin Dempsey that the US military presence in both Iraq and Syria must be a long term commitment as the necessary American sacrifice required to effectively take out ISIS. With US leaders laying the PR groundwork for more Empire occupations worldwide, of course it’s no accident that it conveniently fits in with the Empire’s agenda to wage its war of terror on a forever basis. Efforts by Washington to “prep” Americans for these “inevitable,” open-ended wars around the globe are designed to condition them into passive acceptance of lower intensity, “out-of-sight, out-of-mind” conflicts specifically to minimize and silence citizens from ever actively opposing yet more human slaughter caused by more US state sponsored terrorism in the form of unending imperialistic wars.

Every one of these “current events” have been carefully planned, coordinated, timed and staged for mass public consumption, none more so than those beheadings of US and British journalists, aid workers and Middle Eastern Christians along with the desecration of ancient Iraqi history with dozens of destroyed museums, churches and shrines. Obama and the Empire want us all to be thoroughly horrified and disgusted so we fear and hate the latest designated Islamic enemy. Hating your enemy to the point of viewing them as the lowest of the lowest, sub-human animal is an old psyops brainwashing trick successfully employed in every single war from the dawn of violent man. It effectively dehumanizes the enemy while desensitizing the killing soldier. For over a year now we’ve seen this same MSM game being relentlessly waged to falsely demonize Putin. The sinister, warped minds of the divide and conquer strategists from the ruling class elite don’t mind the resultant hating of Moslems around the world either. That’s all by diabolical design too.

If only six organizations control the entire planet’s mass media outlet that feeds the masses their daily lies like their daily bread, another winning bet would be that in a heartbeat they could also effectively shut down the internet pipeline that showcases ISIS horror show theatrics on the global stage. But by design, they are willingly, cunningly disseminated for worldwide mass consumption.

In fact the only consistent group that’s even been able to militarily hold their own and actually challenge ISIS, the Kurds, are watching UK ship heavy arms to the same losing team the Iraqi army that ran away from defending Mosul. The last time the West gave them weapons and supplies, they handed them right over to ISIS.

In a recent Guardian article, a Kurdish captain said that the Kurds offered to even buy the second hand weapons from the British used in Afghanistan. But because the West is afraid the heavy arms might empower Kurdish nationalism into demanding their own sovereign nation for the first time in history, the US wants to ensure that Iraq stays as one nation after implanting its latest Baghdad puppet regime. The fiercely independent Kurds are feared if they were granted autonomy that they might refuse to allow their homeland to be raped and plundered by the US unlike the corrupt current Iraqi government. The Kurdish fighters could sorely use the bigger guns as they plan to launch an offensive in April or May to take back Mosul from ISIS. But when permitting an ancient ethnic group its proper due by granting political autonomy risks interfering with the Empire’s rabid exploitation of another oil-rich nation, all bets are off in doing the right thing.

The mounting evidence is stacking up daily to unequivocally prove beyond any question of a doubt that ISIS is in fact a US mercenary ally and not the treasonous feds’ enemy at all. From mid-August 2014 to mid-January 2015 using the most sophisticated fighter jets known to man, the US Air Force and its 19 coalition allies have flown more than 16,000 air strikes over Iraq and Syria ostensibly to “root out” ISIS once and for all. Yet all this Empire aggression has nothing to show for its wasted phony efforts as far as inflicting any real damage on the so called ISIS enemy. Labeled a “soft counterterrorism operation,” a prominent Council on Foreign Relations member recently characterized Obama’s scheme as too weak and ineffectual, and like a true CFR chicken hawk, he strongly advocates more bombs, more advisers and special operations forces deployed on the ground.

But the records show that all those air strikes are purposely not hitting ISIS forces because they are not the actual target. Many air strike missions from both the US Air Force as well as Israeli jets have been designed to destroy extensive infrastructure inside Syria that hurts the Syrian people, causing many innocent civilian casualties, while not harming ISIS at all. This in turn ensures more ISIS recruits for America’s forever war on terror. Repeatedly oil refineries, pipelines and grain storage silos have also been prime targets damaged and destroyed by the West. Because in 2013 Obama’s false flag claim that Assad’s army was responsible for the chemical weapons attack was thwarted by strong worldwide opposition and Putin’s success brokering the deal that had Assad turning over his chemical weapons, a mere year later ISIS conveniently provided Obama’s deceitful excuse to move forward with his air offensive on Syria after all.

Finally, on numerous occasions the US was caught red-handed flying arms and supply drops to the Islamic jihadists on the ground. According to Iraqi intelligence sources, US planes have engaged regularly in air drops of food and weapons to ISIS. These sighting began to be observed after one load was “accidentally” dropped last October into so called enemy hands supposedly meant to go to the Kurdish fighters. Realizing the US has betrayed them, as of late Iraqi security forces have been shooting down US and British aircraft engaged in providing supplies and arms to their ISIS enemy. This is perhaps the most incriminating evidence yet in exposing the truth that ISIS is being supported, supplied and protected by the US Empire more than even the Iraqi government forces the US claims to be assisting in this phony war against the militant Islamic jihadists.

Clearly the unfolding daily events and developments in both Iraq and Syria overwhelmingly indict the United States as even more of “the bad guy” than the supposed ISIS terrorists. Recently the US was caught financing ISIS and has all along supported Arab allies that knowingly fund Islamic extremism. During the six months since Obama vowed to go after them and “root them out,” countless times the US and allies have maintained the so called enemy’s supply line with regularly scheduled air drops. Meanwhile, in both Syria and Iraq after a half year of alleged bombing, ISIS forces are reported to be stronger than ever. The air strikes have not been hitting jihadist targets because the American and coalition forces’ actual targets in Syria have been vital infrastructure and civilians that are clearly attacks on Assad. All of this irrefutable evidence piling up is backfiring on the American Empire. The world is now learning just how devious, diabolical and desperate the warmongering, pro-Zionist powerbrokers who are the war criminals controlling the US rogue government really are. Their evil lies are unraveling their demonic agenda as the truth cannot be stopped.

Germans Fed Up With Media Lies



Published on Mar 12, 2015

A poll by German public broadcaster NDR has found out that 63 percent of Germans have little or no confidence in the Ukraine reporting by German media. Of these 63 percent almost every third thinks their reporting might be one-sided or not objective. No wonder given the principles which Germany's largest publishing house follows. Alex Springer SE - among its brands are Die Welt and BILD newspapers. So its media outlets have to uphold their policies which are further unification of the peoples of Europe, supporting the vital rights of the people of Israel and maintain solidarity with the United States of America. In other words Mainstream. Russia Insider (http://russia-insider.com/en) editor Charles Bausman is In the NOW telling us how German outlets are reacting to people's criticism and how his new project is launching to change things.

SPIEGEL: So others should now pay for the decades of mismanagement by governments in Athens?

Piketty:

"It's time for us to think about the young generation of Europeans. For many of them, it is extremely difficult to find work at all. Should we tell them: "Sorry, but your parents and grandparents are the reason you can't find a job?" Do we really want a European model of cross-generational collective punishment? It is this egotism motivated by nationalism that disconcerts me more than anything else today".

Egotism...or...

Klaus Ottomeyer über den Zusammenhang zwischen Militarisierung und Neoliberalismus - www.heise.de/tp/artikel/44/44376/1.html

Wie erklären Sie als Sozialpsychologe die zunehmende Militarisierung Deutschlands und der Welt?

Klaus Ottomeyer: Es gibt ökonomische und politische Interessen am Krieg und an der Aufrüstung. Der militärisch-industrielle Komplex sucht nach dem Kalten Krieg nach neuen Märkten. So wünscht sich Saudi-Arabien Panzer und Konzerne haben Interesse an der Erweiterung von neuen Export- und Importmärkten. Daneben und darüber gibt es militaristische Phantasien, welche die Großmannssucht von Politikern, aber auch mancher "kleinen Leute" bedienen. Die Gemenge- und Interessenslage ist nicht eindeutig. Es gibt auch die Angst vor einem Krieg. Ich glaube nicht, dass Frau Merkels Weigerung, Waffen an die Ukraine zu liefern, nur auf einer taktischen Arbeitsteilung beruht.

Wie hängt die Militarisierung mit der von Ihnen attestierten "neoliberalen Identitätskrise" zusammen?

Klaus Ottomeyer: Die neoliberale Identitätskrise hat zu einer extremen Normenrelativierung und moralischen Unsicherheit geführt, weil alles und jedes vermarktet wurde. Viele wollen zurück in eine überschaubare moralische Ordnung und sichere Identität. Da bieten sich neu errichtete nationale und religiöse "Großzelte", wie es der Psychoanalytiker Vamik Volkan nennt, für eine Einfach-Identität an. Mit narzisstischen Führergestalten in ihrer Mitte, eine Konstellation, die Sigmund Freud einmal als "Schiefheilung" bezeichnet hat.

2 dagen na onze 1e kamer en waterschapsverkiezingen zal plotseling zomaar het licht even uit gaan. Gelukkig zijn wij als Nederlanders veel minder afhankelijk van zonne-energie dan Duitsland dus kan het elektrische licht dat overdag aanstaat gewoon blijven branden en de televisie gewoon 24/7 blijven uitzenden. Ik voorspel dat onze NOS er dan weer spectaculair 'opmerkelijk' aandacht aan gaat besteden als interessant natuurverschijnsel, zonder het te hebben over over hoe verschrikkelijk Nederland achterloopt bij de transitie naar duurzame energiebronnen die 'n paar dagen ervoor nooit ter sprake kwamen bij die verkiezingen omdat de kleine meer op het milieu gerichte partijen die er aandacht aan besteden niet als serieuze gesprekspartners werden aangemerkt door de mainstream media, niet uitgenodigd worden bij debatten die ze organiseren, kortom gemarginaliseerd werden op grond van partijpolitieke electorale argumenten en niet inhoudelijkk. De partij voor de dieren heeft haar naam niet mee natuurlijk en kan makkelijk worden weggezet als een 'one issue' partij waarschijnlijk kan ze haar naam beter veranderen in Partij van de empathie denk ik wel eens. Anyway Blinde vlekken als natuurverschijnsel gaan we zien. De neoliberale natuur wel te verstaan, waarbij de natuur word ingepast in aanvaardbare theorieën over hoe wij de natuur naar onze hand kunnen zetten omdat wij steeds nieuwe technologische ontdekkingen doen die ons voortbestaan als soort zullen waarborgen en dat een geweldige bron van inkomsten is en een motor van onze economie. Alzheimer denk ik, en van zonlicht krijg je kanker.
