the trump admin would be in big trouble if the russian admin decided to use the same logic - every attack from ukraine “emanate from, and are created by usa".. and the fact is that is much more close to the truth... these mental midgets running the show in the usa are really quite pathetic..

My thoughts were that Putin should state that for every foreign missile ATACMS and Storm Shadow, other, fired into Old Russia/Crimea whether US, UK, French, German or Czech, Russia would fire 3 back to the country of manufacture.

There's enough US strategic targets in Europe.

Romania, Poland, Germany, France, UK, FFFFFFFFFFFFF UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU CCCCCCCCCCCCCC KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK YOU!

Thanks for mentioning Dr. King. Media was enraged when on 4/4/1967 Dr. King preached that US is “greatest purveyor of violence in the world today,” and led 125,000 anti-war march to U.N, urged UN to stop US from bombing Vietnam. One year later Dr. King was assassinated.

“Time magazine called the speech “demagogic slander that sounded like a script for Radio Hanoi.” Washington Post wrote that King had “diminished his usefulness to his cause, his country, his people.””…

Pres. LBJ said FBI was closely watching all anti-war activity.

Pepper is an incredible human but few know of him and what he’s accomplished. I watched MLK lead the Freedom Marches in grainy black & white. Back in ‘68 we knew the government did it; we just needed proof. It took 30 more years for the truth to finally be announced. Too many are Proles and know nothing thus helping to perpetuate the Empire.

4/4/2021 article by Edward Curtin praises "monumental work and persistence of the King family lawyer, William Pepper:" "The corporate mass media has for more than fifty years echoed the government’s version of the King assassination. Here and there, however, mainly through the alternative media, and also through the monumental work and persistence of the King family lawyer, William Pepper, the truth about the assassination has surfaced.

Through decades of research, a TV trial, a jury trial, and three meticulously researched books, Pepper has documented the parts played in the assassination by F.B.I. Director J. Edgar Hoover, the FBI, Army Intelligence, Memphis Police, and southern Mafia figures. In his last two books, An Act of State (2003) and later The Plot to Kill King (2016), Pepper presents his comprehensive case.

William Pepper’s decades-long investigation not only refutes the flimsy case against James Earl Ray, but definitively proves that King was killed by a government conspiracy led by J. Edgar Hoover and the FBI, Army Intelligence, and Memphis Police, assisted by southern Mafia figures. He is right to assert that :

we have probably acquired more detailed knowledge about this political assassination than we have ever had about any previous historical event.”

This makes the silence around this case even more shocking."...April 4, 2021, “The Assassination and Resurrection of Martin Luther King,” Edward Curtin, Off Guardian.

No coincidence Donald Trump was an avid fan of Smackdown Wrestling. He, like George "if you're not with us, you're against us" Bush sees the world in black and white, good versus bad. Trump and his inner circle have a 5-year-old's mentality. They do not understand culture, context or nuance. They are driven by instinct and impulse based on perception.

A big truck tried to run me off the road today.

Was he upset by my painted bumper sticker that reads

To Impeach is Patriotic.

?

.

Of course that was first for the lesser Bush and Iraq, and cost me my Grasshopper taxicab company for trying to say so.

Also I went to jail, ScKamala gave me solitary isolation, and the only time in my life I was arrested a half dozen times, at stupid anti war rallies with like six people .

In. City Hall, at the Hall of of justice sic.

ScKamala gave me solitary isolation.

I hope Russia don't fall for this shit and remembers America made this war and hates Russia, I am sad to report.

There's the idea that it is a huge tell how a people/culture/civilization deals with their land, and the nature that they are inhabiting/inheriting. Over historical timespans, some develop theirs; others coexist; and a few start to lay waste and ruin. Like it's a sickness.

When I recently learned about the giant old growth forests the US settlers used up to the last tree for timber, I was reminded of the British, who did the same to their isles, and in particular to Ireland. This may show that there are roots to this problem which extend beyond a short-lived 'accident' of history. I can't really pin it down myself, but lack of empathy is certainly a major part of it.

Incidentally, it happened to me that I found out one of my close friends was a psychopath. The drama never stops, much as with Trump apparently. He also enjoys dealing out threats; I'll assume it gives him a sense of control and domination over a relationship. Why he would need that, I don't know. After I had my realization and overcame initial shock and unease, the habit became dull and rather disingenious.

Yesterday - Ron Unz gets specific -

https://www.unz.com/runz/how-israel-killed-the-kennedys/

An excerpt:

"An additional major area of concern for Israeli officials may have involved the efforts of the Kennedy Administration to sharply restrict the activities of pro-Israel political lobbies. During his 1960 presidential campaign, Kennedy had met in New York City with a group of wealthy Israel advocates, led by financier Abraham Feinberg, and they had offered enormous financial support in exchange for a controlling influence in Middle Eastern policy. Kennedy managed to fob them off with vague assurances, but he considered the incident so troubling that the next morning he sought out journalist Charles Bartlett, one of his closest friends, and expressed his outrage that American foreign policy might fall under the control of partisans of a foreign power, promising that if he became president, he would rectify that situation. And indeed, once he had installed his brother Robert as Attorney General, the latter initiated a major legal effort to force pro-Israel groups to register themselves as foreign agents, which would have drastically reduced their power and influence. But after JFK’s death, this project was quickly abandoned, and as part of the settlement, the leading pro-Israel lobby merely agreed to reconstitute itself as AIPAC."

And if you really want to dig deeper into this whole affair - https://crushlimbraw.blogspot.com/search?q=DaSynagogue+of+Satan&updated-max=2024-11-24T08:46:00-08:00&max-results=20&start=0&by-date=true&m=1 - a list of headnotes to articles from DaLimbraw Library on a word search of DASYNAGOGUE OF SATAN - arranged by date-latest first.

My foreword to the first article: "(From a Pentagon insider - for 80 years DaDoD has been the biggest, most expensive, wasteful and deadliest federal agency to our own American population and the rest of the world. In addition, it has and is now proving itself to be Israel's bitch - it's primary purpose. It's primary purpose is NOT defense of America! Got that? Read it yourself! Translation: A servant of DaSynagogue of Satan! - CL)"

And now....you and I have to accept a hard truth - all this shit grew and prospered UNDER OUR WATCH - if you're a Boomer or even my Silent age. There is no point in pointing fingers when there are more of them pointing back at us - it's time to look in DaFreakingMirror, folks - that's who got us here!

No, I'm not looking for an argument - I've already accepted my blame - just read those well researched articles by a variety of authors - some you already know. It's time to get real and do our job as parents, mentors and citizens - in our churches, communities, workplaces etcetc - playtime is over!

Mike Ruppert was his name. A warrior for truth and justice who couldn’t bear the moral load on his psyche any longer. His testament is his book, “Crossing the Rubicon: the decline of the American empire at the end of the age of oil.”

He was an LA cop who went after the CIA for its importation of cocaine and crack into LA during the 1980s—that epidemic that spawned the Crips, Bloods, and many similar gangs within US inner cities, the same story Gary Webb worked on and was killed for. That’s how I first knew him via his first list-serv website copvcia and newsletter. He was also a 911 Truther and investigator. He learned too much, yet he couldn’t stop, which destroyed his marriage and made it hard to develop friendships, relationships that might have helped him overcome his moral angst. That he knew what he knew amidst an ocean of uninterested Proles was just too much. He was able to get his book published before he died, so at least he had that solace.

Thank you. The merchants of death, including the current crop of big mouths-empty suits in the US admin, have sold the US prosperity (in terms of the honest and advanced industries) for personal comforts and killed American spirit by their hypocrisy and lies.

If the US policies were designed by American patriots, the country would look and think differently and had very different reputation.

Lyndon Johnson was a criminal of gangster variety in charge of the US. He looked physically as an American copy of Golda Meir, another thug who became famous for her lies and sanctimonious justifications of ethnic cleansing in Palestine, “land without people for people without land”.

Moral dwarfs in charge of western policies are on display everywhere. Poorly educated, with poor manners, slavishly serving to money lenders and war profiteers… A rather miserable picture.
