Capitalism: A Hate Story

Posted on by

“In Year 1 of Obama, two fat cats named Michael Moore and Harvey Weinstein released a movie. Their magnum opus was ‘Capitalism: A Love Story’. The unsubtly sarcastic point after the colon was that capitalism was an unmitigated bag of evil. And to reaffirm the faith of capitalism-haters in the evils of capitalism, here was a movie put out by a bunch of corporations owned by millionaires.  The traditional image of the anti-capitalist as a ragamuffin who dies of consumption in his garret has always been at odds with the real image of the anti-capitalist as a rich man or the son of a rich man.  The man of the people is rather often stuck at the bottom of the top of the pole.”

Chomsky: U.S. is a ‘rogue state’ that ‘doesn’t pay attention to international law’

Posted on by

“‘We should bear in mind that the core principle of the United Nations Charter bars the threat or use of force. So all of this is criminal, to begin with, but he’ll continue with that.’ ‘The United States is a rogue state,’ he averred. ‘It doesn’t pay any attention to international law.’  Furthermore, he said, ‘(t)his would be a perfect opportunity to ban chemical weapons, to impose the chemical weapons convention on the Middle East.’ The U.S., of course, Chomsky noted, will never go along with that because of one nation in the Middle East ‘which has chemical weapons and is in violation of the chemical weapons convention and has refused even to ratify it — namely Israel.'”

O’Donnell: Napalm is America’s ‘cheapest weapon of mass destruction’

Posted on by

“He begins with its invention at Harvard in 1942 and documenting its usage in World War II and Vietnam, before moving on to the more significant issue: the ‘inhumane’ ways in which napalm can kill.  ‘Napalm attaches to human flesh in a way that’s impossible to remove,’ he said. But ‘it kills in other ways too. You can be untouched by [a 100 pound napalm bomb] and be killed by a heat stroke. You can be killed by suffocation. You can be killed by breathing in carbon monoxide poisoning. You can be killed by dehydration.’ ‘Napalm was an ‘instant hit’ in World War II,’ he continued. ‘It was our cheapest weapon of mass destruction. Each bomb was made of plastic, held 100 gallons of napalm and cost $40.'”

Spare us the hypocrisy over chemical weapons, America.

Posted on by

“Napalm is ‘a mixture of naphthenic and aliphatic carboxylic acid’. I don’t know about you, but ‘a mixture of naphthenic and aliphatic carboxylic acid’ sounds awfully ‘chemical’ to me, and yet this weapon has been liberally used by the US army to incinerate soldiers (and luckless civilians) in many recent wars, including Gulf War 1.  So maybe the ‘global red line against chemical weapons’ has a strange footnote which exempts chemical weapons that are devised in America? That makes sense, because the greatest anomaly, when it comes to Kerry’s global red line, is Agent Orange.”

10 Chemical Weapons Attacks Washington Doesn’t Want You to Talk About

Posted on by

“Washington doesn’t merely lack the legal authority for a military intervention in Syria. It lacks the moral authority. We’re talking about a government with a history of using chemical weapons against innocent people far more prolific and deadly than the mere accusations Assad faces from a trigger-happy Western military-industrial complex, bent on stifling further investigation before striking.  Here is a list of 10 chemical weapons attacks carried out by the U.S. government or its allies against civilians.”

‘Footage of chemical attack in Syria is fraud’

Posted on by

“In her interview with RT, Mother Agnes doubts so much footage could have been taken in so little time, and asks where parents of the supposedly dead children are. She promises to send her report to the UN.  The nun is indignant with the world media for apparently turning a blind eye to the Latakia massacre by rebel extremists, which left 500 civilians including women and children dead.  Russia’s Foreign Ministry has called on the international community to pay attention to revelations made by Mother Agnes Mariam el-Salib.”

A few questions about Syria

Posted on by

google-search-header2

“The government of the United States, the one elected to that office by a majority of the electorate, used weapons of mass destruction, chemical weapons, poisons, against it ‘own people’ in Waco, Texas. It murdered dozens of helpless, defenseless women and children. And innocent men too. How would the average American feel if the government of Syria (or China, or Russia, or Monaco, or Lichtenstein or Uruguay or Australia or Nigeria) drew a red line in the sand against such U.S. barbarism, and said that a penalty must be imposed somewhere between the Rio Grande and the Canadian border by use of tomahawk missiles. It would only be a limited surgical strike.”
