Hetty Litjens: DubyaAbout Bush and related items (his wars). Impeach Bush.AMERICA'S LAST CHANCE: IMPEACH BUSH- July 13, 2008 (Click the image on the left for whole cartoon.) Yesterday (see previous post) I mentioned that my blog got 3 hits from the US administration and military. This should be seen in the light of this new development: NewsFromUnderground: "The U.S. military is looking for a contractor to patrol cyberspace, watching for warning signs of forthcoming terrorist attacks or other hostile activity on the Web. In a solicitation posted on the Web last week, the U.S. Army's Fifth Signal Command said it was..http://radio.weblogs.com/0116902/categories/dubya/2008/07/13.html#a5716 THE OBAMA CONUNDRUM- July 12, 2008 Several days ago this blog was visited by the U.S. Department of State and HQ USAFESCNO (Armed Forces Europe, Middle East & Canada). Nothing special in a world where every little bit of internet traffic is monitored. But in this case it seems they were interested in what was generally being said on the net about Iran and a possible attack by Israel or the US. When big shots take the trouble to visit a small blog like this one, this can only mean something important is developing. To be honest,..http://radio.weblogs.com/0116902/categories/dubya/2008/07/12.html#a5715 NEO IMPERIALISM- July 12, 2008 America is an imperialist nation, there is no doubt about that. It interferes with nations all over the world, and even interferes with democratically elected governments. The bombing of Dresden and the atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki were the beginning of a totalitarian state. American governments before and after WWII have invaded hundreds of countries and the result has not been a better world, on the contrary. America's greatest friend in arms is Britain. "'At the heart of the US and.http://radio.weblogs.com/0116902/categories/dubya/2008/07/12.html#a5714 ARMAGEDDON OR REASON- July 11, 2008 TomDispatch: "Seymour Hersh, who certainly has his ear to the ground in Washington, has publicly suggested that an Obama victory might be the signal for the Bush administration to launch an air campaign against that country. As Jim Lobe of Inter Press Service has pointed out, there have been a number of 'public warnings by U.S. hawks close to Cheney's office that either the Israelis or the U.S. would attack Iran between the November elections and the inaugural of a new president in January...http://radio.weblogs.com/0116902/categories/dubya/2008/07/11.html#a5713 BACK IN THE USSA- July 11, 2008 NYTimes: "The Senate gave final approval on Wednesday to a major expansion of the government's surveillance powers, handing President Bush one more victory in a series of hard-fought clashes with Democrats over national security issues. The measure, approved by a vote of 69 to 28, is the biggest revamping of federal surveillance law in 30 years. It includes a divisive element that Mr. Bush had deemed essential: legal immunity for the phone companies that cooperated in the National Security...http://radio.weblogs.com/0116902/categories/dubya/2008/07/11.html#a5712 DESPISERS OF MANKIND- July 4, 2008 "The despisers of mankind - apart from the mere fools and mimics, of that creed - are of two sorts. They who believe their merit neglected and unappreciated make up one class; they who receive adulation and flattery, knowing their own worthlessness, compose the other. Be sure that the coldest-hearted misanthropes are ever of this last order." (Dickens in Barnaby Rudge) George W. Bush is a major league non-valeur, a good-for-nothing. When he came to power he promised to cut government spending...http://radio.weblogs.com/0116902/categories/dubya/2008/07/04.html#a5701 BIG BROTHER IS COUNTING YOUR MONEY- July 3, 2008 Two days ago I reported about privacy regulations in international financial transactions. Yesterday I made an international payment and realized that our privacy is already being breached on an unprecedented scale. There was a note on my bank's site that told me the transaction data were also transmitted to SWIFT US, so that the US government can monitor every payment. Here is their information page. Swift: "Currently, SWIFT has operating centres (OPCs) in Europe and the US. Message data is...http://radio.weblogs.com/0116902/categories/dubya/2008/07/03.html#a5698 INFLATION OR BLOW-UP- July 1, 2008 Spiegel: "Humiliation for Mr. Dollar: Ben Bernanke, the chairman of the United States Federal Reserve Bank, faces a general investigation by the International Monetary Fund. Just one more example of the Fed losing its power. No Fed chief in US history has been forced to submit to the kind of humiliation that Ben Bernanke is facing. This is partly down to circumstances. Inflation is going up and up, and this year's average will likely top 4 percent. But this time Mr. Dollar is also Mr....http://radio.weblogs.com/0116902/categories/dubya/2008/07/01.html#a5697 |
