Super Committee, Gridlock And Danger...

Bowles and former Republican Senator Alan Simpson, co-chair of the President’s fiscal commission, told the panel to “go big” with a $4 trillion deficit reduction package over the coming decade. They said it would be the “minimum” level of savings needed to keep the nation’s debt from rising faster than economic growth.
Most in Washington would do well to read (and yes, you'll have to actually understand the words): The History of The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire by Edward Gibbon. An old book granted, but it's still rather relevant today. And for those good citizens of these Americas who don't realise that the USA actually has an 'empire' to protect, well...you have! (it's usually referred to protecting American interests abroad and having military bases in at least 156 countries, which sure helps to remind foreign folks).

Edward Gibbon.

Now...I'm all for US bases and keeping militarily ahead, but it is coming to the point that you can't have this ginormous debt, keep borrowing like a obsessive compulsive and expect to stay in the Number 1 spot for much longer. And the US losing this spot would eventually have dire consequences for all western style democracies.

My American friends: Listen up. I too had an
Empire. I had the Barbarians to contend with, but at least
 I wasn't down and out in debtsville...and then there's the
thorny question of Russia, China, Radical Islam...
Oh dear...

So unless the political pygmies in Washington and the so called Super Committee grasp the obvious sharp stingy thing and actually do something other than shuffle the debt dollars on the platform of procrastination; America's days as top dog and protector of those countries with similar values will have gone... vanished quicker than you can say a hail Caesar.

Sarkozy and Obama Caught Out: No Friends Of Israel!

Microphones accidently left on after G20 meeting picked up 
private conversations between US, French presidents. 
Sarkozy admits he ‘can’t stand’ Israeli premier. 


Obama: 
You’re fed up 
with him? I have to deal with him every day!

Hey...none of that Jew food for me!

And if you think it's just about the Israeli Prime Minister, and 
not Israel, you'd be dead wrong!

And you'd be as smug as fuck if you were me!

Russian Talks Dangerous Bollocks, Part 2

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, (Ynetnews)

Today there is a real chance to conclude talks whose results should be an agreement restoring trust in the purely peaceful nature of Iran's nuclear program. Disrupting this chance by demanding swift imposition of sanctions would be a serious mistake.

Russia's Sergei ... managing
to keep a straight face.

This man is either in need of a lobotomy, or he's a classic Soviet leftover. Whatever Russia's game plan is, acting midwife to Iran's WMD child will make it possible for Iran's Islamist friends in Chechnya to have the capability to eventually bite them very hard in their Cossacks.

W H A T?  Are you friggin' serious Sergei... of
course the sly fuckers are building nukes!

Great news, my Chechen Islamic brothers...we can put away our
present toys, for very soon we'll have our very own 'dirty bomb' from
our good friends in Iran: Then it'll be good night Moscow, Allah willing!

Russia Warns Israel!

Russia warns against Israeli air strike on Iran - Telegraph: "Russia has tried to push Tehran to disclose more details about its nuclear work to ease international concerns.
Senior Russian security officials accept that the West has legitimate concerns about the nuclear programme though Moscow still says there is no clear evidence that Iran is trying to make a nuclear bomb."

The Russian foreign minister, Sergei Lavov says he's
never heard of Vyacheslav Danilenko...'but I once took a photo of
 fairies and elves at the bottom of my garden'!

Too much vodka, eh Foreign Minister? No clear evidence? How about your fellow countryman and loose cannon in Tehran namely one Russian nuke physicist, Vyacheslav Danilenko? Ask him what he was up to for five years when not playing chess with mad mullahs. 

At times, Russia has this great capacity to insult one's intelligence. I guess old habits from "when we was Soviets and told the peasants total bollocks." is hardwired into their craniums.

Too Scary! Graphic Cigarette Image Blocked!

Graphic cigarette image rule in U.S. blocked - Health - CBC News: "A judge is blocking a federal requirement in the U.S. that would have begun forcing tobacco companies next year to put graphic images on their cigarette packages to show the dangers of smoking."

Ah...the good old US of A.... a land of many a contradiction. A daily diet on news channels every 15 mins of ever which way the Yanks do themselves in...but smokin' thru yer throat? Nope! We can't have good folks up-chuckin' over their take-outs and tele dinners, should chance have it they catch a fleeting glimpse of doomy-dark swirling coming from someones smoky, throaty hollow. 

Theresa May: As Much Use As A Glass Eye...

The home secretary, Theresa May, has publicly admitted for the first time that she did authorise the relaxation of checks on European Union biometric passport holders at Britain's ports and airports this summer.

T.M. attempting to save her political arse.

Known as 'that stupid cow' by those who aren't Linked or Facebooked to this biped of bumble; T.M. should, without waiting for UK farmer Cameron to lead her to the abattoir, just take herself off to moo and chew in the meadow of failure. 

Rise Of The Hacktivists...

"Two days after a “hacktivist” group called Anonymous threatened cyber attacks on the Israeli government for its blockade on Gaza, the websites of the Israeli Defense Forces Spokesman Unit, Shin Bet and Mossad have been taken down. The Israeli government denies that Anonymous is responsible, but the timing is impeccable." (Frontpagemag.com).

I read the other day, that the self styled cyber vigilantes (who know plenty about 01100010100's stuff but seem somewhat gullible about the Gringos of Gaza) got an big attack of the back-downs, when a drug cartel promised death on a ten to one ratio. The deal was this: if Anonymous made public one cartel name, ten innocent heads in the underpass would be the outcome. The Anons quite rightly backed off, hopefully with a lesson learned about the limits of playing digital gods.
