Sunday, May 20, 2012 The Dictator - Racist War Propaganda With Distractions (3 comments)
Review of Sacha Baron Cohen's new film The Dictator. War propaganda in highly staged stupid situations really isn't all that funny.
Wednesday, May 16, 2012 Delusional Anarchists Part Two (1 comments)
Continuing series on the dead-end Anarchist political philosophy. Similarities to Marxist thought exposed, Spanish Civil War examined in context. Dictatorial pronouncements and taboos shown to be inconsistent with the "free" and "voluntary" nature of their own stated aims.
Sunday, May 13, 2012 The Anarchist Delusion (10 comments)
Anarchism vs. Democracy. They are not the same thing, and we should be clear about what it is we are fighting for and against.
Tuesday, May 1, 2012 Anarchism, Occupy & MoveOn.org (4 comments)
Misguided ideas have neutered the Occupy Movement and left it ripe for the picking Democrat front group MoveOn.org.
Tuesday, April 10, 2012 The Hunger Games (Take Two) (1 comments)
The Hunger Games delivers, and not just for the tween girl audience. It falls short of really ripping into the flesh of the matter, but then again there are at least two other novels to carry the story forward. It shoots a warning across the bow that the unquestioned power of the state leads to atrocity and servitude. Perhaps this somewhat blurry mirror will show young audiences a glimpse of what to be ever vigilant against.
Wednesday, March 28, 2012 Cover-up in Kandahar (2 comments)
Eyewitnesses and official Afghanistan government investigations directly contradict the US military's official story of the massacre of 17 civilians in Panjwai, including 9 children. Days before the massacre US troops threatened the local villages with retaliation for a roadside bombing, including threats made against their children.
Friday, March 16, 2012 The Most Fascistic Industry (62 comments)
The nuclear industry worldwide colludes with governments to force unnecessary risk onto the populations. This is fascism, a state-private partnership that increases profits for private shareholders by enforcing unwanted risk on citizens through government power. This system must be challenged and the nuclear plants shut down permanently.

Russia warns bloodthirsty western alliance against attacking Syria and Iran. Stakes could not be higher.
Wednesday, February 15, 2012 Chris Hedges is Correct About Militant Anarchists (6 comments)
Violence is being argued by some anarchists, but Occupy is a nonviolent movement. Those who would derail nonviolent movements through reckless criminality should form their own movement and face the law enforcement apparatus by themselves without the luxury of having unwilling human shields. Knowing that that strategy is doomed to fail, these militants hide behind the integrity and courage of nonviolent activists.

Police brutality used in a deliberate coordinated fashion is state terrorism.
Tuesday, September 6, 2011 9/11 Cluster Bomb From 9/11's "Terror Czar" Richard A. Clarke
1) Numerous personnel at CIA knew about the Al Qaeda operatives living in San Diego.
2) Richard Clarke, as the chief counterterrorism advisor to the White House would automatically receive all reports unless there was active interference to prevent him from receiving the intelligence.
3) That the active participation of the Saudis can be factored in, either as a cover story or as the true explanation of their role.

Saturday, July 9, 2011 Real, Clean Energy Alternatives: Part 3 - Wind Power (2 comments)
"(By) 2020 and beyond wind, wave and hydro are expected to be 4 cents/kWh or less."
Why on earth would anyone risk their entire region to a nuclear plant? It's patently insane, even on economic grounds. A 2009 MIT study (Future of nuclear power) estimated the real cost of nuclear at "8.4 cents/kWe-h." Double!
Sunday, July 3, 2011 What Are the Energy Alternatives? (Pt. 2 of Series) (3 comments)
Bottom line: Heat mining works. It is THE global energy source for the next few millenia and beyond.
"Based on the analysis of experienced researchers, it is important to emphasize that while further advances are needed, none of the known technical and economic barriers limiting widespread development of EGS as a domestic energy source are considered to be insurmountable."
Tuesday, June 28, 2011 Nuclear Catastrophe Imminent in Nebraska? (3 comments)
The plant was not actually "designed" for the 1014 ft flood level at all. Whether sufficient "improvements" to the original design have been implemented properly is anyone's guess. The plant was originally created to:
"The precise level -- 1,009.5 feet -- is written into the plant's operating licenses as a flooding 'design basis' threat that the plant must be guarded against." (New York Times)
Sunday, June 26, 2011 Nuclear? What's the Alternative? (Part 1) (16 comments)
America's energy problems are primarily political and not technological at all. Clean, safe and decentralized technologies have been fought and brought to a standstill because large, dirty, centrally-controlled, deep-pocketed interests don't like competition.
... The buzzword / acronym to watch for is "Concentrated Solar Power" (CSP).
Tuesday, June 21, 2011 Nuclear Nightmare Worsens (7 comments)
The Fukushima catastrophe is on track to out-disaster Chernobyl. The Fukushima region is much more highly populated than the Russian region. Some scientists have seriously considered creating a new "level 8" to categorize what's happening to Japan and the Pacific ocean since March 11th.

Atomic energy poisons children by the millions. It must be outlawed as soon as possible, and the lies and cover-up of the IAEA must be fought.

Article uses the scientific literature to destroy the lies about Chernobyl promoted by the pro-nuclear IAEA (International Atomic Energy Agency), and their media mouthpieces like George Monbiot of The Guardian UK.
Thursday, March 17, 2011 NUCLEAR POWER = INSANITY (13 comments)
Nuclear power is the worst form of energy production to ever exist. It has always been bad, always caused cancers and high unnecessary risks. And it needs to end, now.

So-called "experts" who regurgitate nuclear industry lies should be tarred and feathered and never allowed on any media, ever again.

The Green Party where I live does not seem to care about new members. Without acknowledging new people and giving them some ways to participate, one might argue the party no longer exists. Hello? Red flags. Is this thing on?
Friday, November 26, 2010 Airports in the "Land of the Free"
If you're not "mad as hell" and "not going to take it anymore" you probably aren't a real American, my friend. Your civil rights are not a dead issue printed on a rotting old parchment in some museum. Civil rights are a living, breathing, very current and daily reality.
