It's really a sad commentary on the condition of American politics when it takes North Korea to stand up to the Deep State. But they stood up indeed: crossing every Red Line that the perverts Tillerson and McMaster drew in the sand. No sooner had the Pentagon announced an 'armada' was approaching Korea---led by Obama-appointed Admiral Harry Harris---than North Korea tested a submarine-launched missile.
On Saturday, President Kim boldly held the annual military parade in Pyongyang; undaunted that such a display was an obvious target. That night, in defiance of Neocon threats, North Korea test-fired a ballistic which allegedly failed (if the Corporate Media can be believed).
Even though Trump has authorized military commanders to show initiative, Admiral Harris displayed the same poltroonery that contributed to Obama's downfall in the South China Sea. President Kim and his generals know that the Rainbow-Pride Pentagon has no stomach for fighting a well-armed and well-led professional military, so he called Harris' bluff. The Neocons ended up painted into a corner: if they fail to attack North Korea, they look weak. If they do attack, they'll go it alone and Pentagon incompetence will be exposed---making them look even weaker.
However the Neocons want to spin this, the Korean 'pivot' is an abject and humiliating failure. This was one of the most ill-conceived stunts that the US State Department has ever pulled. There's no way out of this bind for the US: a point that wasn't lost on Monday's UN meeting where the North Korean Ambassador, Kim In Ryong, addressed the Assembly.
"With its gangster-like logic, the United States has introduced onto the Korean Peninsula huge nuclear assets, seriously threatening the peace and security of the Peninsula and pushing it to the brink of war." Kim stated. "It has created a dangerous situation wherein atomic warfare could erupt at any moment; threatening the stability of all of Northeastern Asia."
Kim told reporters afterwards that North Korea was well within its indefeasible rights as a sovereign nation to develop such weaponry as would guarantee its security.
"If the Americans want war, North Korea is prepared to answer that threat." Kim stated flatly. "The US has to come to its senses and pursue a saner option."
North Korea has beaten the Neocons at their own game. American leadership can bluster all they want about "ending patient diplomacy" and "solving the Korean Crisis in one blow" but like all bullies, there's nothing to back up their boasts.
The Manosphere's Red Pill Cult didn't come away empty-handed from this weekend's annual Eastertide madness in the Prozac Nation. They found a new poster-boy for their ideology. His name is Nathan Damigo:
Andrew Anglin, of The Daily Stormer, has even gone so far as to replace his usual 'Pepe' and Hitler-memes who a photo of this Manly Alpha Leader in action on his blog-header.
For those of our many readers who've tuned out the Corporate Media: during the latest Berkeley riot, Damigo felt so frightened and threatened by a five-foot, one-inch teenaged groupie of the Bay Area Antifa that he knocked her out with one punch. And he didn't even use brass knuckles.
So this photo and accompanying video went 'viral' and briefly eclipsed the looming Second Korean War on discussion forums as the most important thing on Ameroboobs' drug-soaked minds. The Red Pills, driven to orgasmic ecstasy at seeing a thug beating a girl half his size during Holy Week, cheered on and defended Damigo and ridiculed the girl-groupie---who probably really needed a good spanking and a two-week grounding more than anything else.
Some photos of the girl have also emerged on the Internet, showing that sans the 60s-era Cuban-Revolutionary wardrobe, she's actually rather pretty.
And this, as per usual, sent Anglin's notorious sexual jealousy into overdrive. He wrote a long diatribe explaining that female hypergamy is the reason young girls get involved with scum like the Antifa. The real reason, of course, is the cultural toxicity that social cesspools like Berkeley have on impressionable young minds---but Red Pill envy always overcomes their miniscule reasoning powers.
Anglin pronounced Damigo's assault on the girl as "The Punch Heard Round the World!" and even called for "White Sharia". Yeah, he's really some Conservative...
"The degree to which you allow women freedom is the degree to which they will destroy their own lives and the lives of everyone around them, and by extension, civilization itself!" Anglin shrieks, "We have to forcibly marry off teenaged girls to men who will take care of them!"
And no doubt, in the Red Pill New World Order, the Manly Alpha Leaders like Anglin and Damigo will get first-dibs on all these girls forced into marriage. There's no point in deconstructing the rest of Anglin's foolish rant: he's basically advocating a female slave cartel where losers like himself can compete on unfair terms with more desirable males. It's the reductio ad absurdum of the Cultural Marxism upon which the Red Pill Philosophy is really based.
It's not known as of this writing where Damigo is a Red Pill himself or not; but he fairly fits the profile of most of their kind. Besides a proclivity to beat up on little girls, Damigo is a chronically unemployed rootless male; a veteran both of Obama's Rainbow-Pride military and the State Prison. Yes, Damigo served a stretch for armed robbery, but he dindu nuffin'. At the trial he testified that it was all a mistake; he thought the cab driver he beat and robbed was an Iraqi. Oops...
But Damigo and his actions in Berkeley are deeply symbolic of everything that is wrong with the New-Age, Trash-Culture Far Right. They are driven by an unwavering faith that Might Makes Right and that force, fear, and manipulation are superior forms of all human relationships. True Conservatives reject these things and stand for fair-play, defending the weak, and the Rule of Law. Conservatives are never afraid to fight; but do so as a last resort whenever peaceful options have failed. The Trash-Culture Right is all about the projection of power without the internal spiritual power tempering and guiding their actions.
Predictably, Anglin and the other smart boys laugh at principled Conservatives as 'Cucks' but it's their social and religious heresies which have never lasted while traditionalism always withstands the test of time.
There was an interesting editorial in the Iranian media this morning about last week's deployment of the MOAB in Afghanistan. The important points of the text highlight what has become a disturbing trend in the Administration:
"A new round of talks, during the International Afghanistan Peace Conference, being hosted in Moscow, started on Friday featuring a broader range of regional players than before. Representatives from Iran, China, India, Pakistan, and the Central Asian states are in attendance. This is the third meeting in five months, stepping up diplomatic efforts to find ways for reconciliation in the war-torn country, and settling Afghanistan's drawn-out struggle and Taliban Insurgency...
"In an aberration, however, the United States---which has kept a military presence in Afghanistan since the NATO withdrawal in 2014---turned down the invitation to attend despite Russia's insistence...Worse still, the US dropped a MOAB bomb on Afghanistan on Thursday, the day prior to the Moscow peace conference. The MOAB---which stands for 'massive ordinance air blast'---reportedly struck an ISIS tunnel complex in Nangarhar Province. However, as observers have pointed out, with a one-mile blast radius, the potential for civilian casualties is high. The attack is a sign that the US isn't on board for peace talks at any time, much less attend the Moscow talks."
The deployment of MOAB bears an eerie similarity to Trump's strange behavior during the Syrian Missile strike---timing it with President Xi Jinping's visit to Mar-a-Lago. It seems that MOAB was deliberately deployed the day before regional peace talks were being held. In the case of Afghanistan, it's not a question of whether or not deploying the MOAB was sound military strategy. The timing of the attack---poised directly between Tillerson's trip to Russia and the Afghan Peace Conference---comes across as a slap in the face to Russian diplomatic efforts. And the jackals in the Corporate Media, behaving like a bunch of cannibals dancing around a stew-pot, are not helping America's Image in this regard in the least.
Advising the President of China about a missile strike on his allies during dessert and dropping a MOAB the day before a peace conference is not 'a show of strength'; it is the behavior of a gutter-level thug carrying on a 'turf war.' Obama was notorious for these kinds of double-crosses too; but (apparently) less driven by a trash-culture mentality and cagey enough to know when to stop pushing his limits. One of the criticisms against Trump during the Republican Party primaries was that he treated politics like a Reality TV show and came across as a bully. This is precisely how his recent foreign policy is coming across. Obama found out the hard way that, while a US politician can get away with these shenanigans inside the country, playing these games on foreign powers can backfire and backfire badly.
The difference is simply this: Americans generally agree to a Rule of Law and form policies politically; and resolve differences through a set electoral process. Foreign countries play by their own rules and maintain military, economic, and diplomatic means of defending their interests. Afghanistan is a good example. When we have a national emergency in the US that requires military intervention---like urban riots---the police and National Guard are restoring order among an unruly populace angry over some specific issue. The troubles die down and life goes back to normal. In a country like Afghanistan, you have competing groups who don't want some outside group imposing their will on them. Things don't die down in Afghanistan: they get increasingly worse and after 16 years, the US has accomplished very little since deposing the Taliban in 2002.
It's becoming increasingly imperative that Trump's supporters impress upon him the need to rein in these Neocon maniacs: Tillerson, Pompeo, Haley, McMaster, and Votel in particular before a crisis that nobody can control occurs.
Easter services are being held around the world today. As usual, everywhere other than the effete and decadent West, there are prayers for peace and time for reflection. Orthodox Easter and that of the Western Church fell on the same Sunday this year.
Easter is still a Christian holiday in many parts of the world.
Things like 'Spring Spheres' are unknown in countries like Russia, and saying 'Happy Easter' is not considered a Hate Crime. Children aren't exposed by the mass media to television shows at Easter like The Young Pope or The Real O'Neills; in fact, kids can generally attend movies and other amusements without being exposed to homosexual propaganda.
This is because countries like Russia are led by men of principle who take the message of Easter seriously.
President Putin attended Easter services this morning and met briefly with Patriarch Kirill, the leader of the Russian Orthodox Church. Putin made a short speech to the congregation, praising the Russian people for their commitment to family, faith, and freedom.
"The great Easter holiday has a special moral sense, spreads the Eternal Light of Faith, fills hearts with joy, love, and the striving to do good works. The Easter celebrations that are taking place across the country trace their origins to centuries-old ancestral traditions, and promote imperishable spiritual ideals and values." Putin told the crowd.
Patriarch Kirill helped organize massive humanitarian relief projects which have saved literally millions of lives: especially in Syria, Iraq, Donbas, and North Korea. And speaking of Syria:
President and Mrs. Assad paid a visit to a Christian convent near Damascus and celebrated Easter with children orphaned by the Civil War. Some of these children had never celebrated Easter before; having come from areas liberated from Terrorist control where Christian celebrations were prohibited.
Meanwhile, here in the Prozac Nation, Easter festivities were observed The American Way in Berkeley, California; a city regarded as one of the foremost cultural centers of the US:
What these two political factions were fighting over, we have no idea. But then again, neither do they. Possibly since the Second Korean War didn't materialize, these Ameroboobs decided to start a war among themselves.
It's probably best to draw a discreet veil over such gloomy scenes and focus on what Easter really means:
And this Message survives all human-inspired crises, now and forever.
The Corporate Media and other denizens of the Deep State never tire of ridiculing religious faith, except when the cults that they support---like the Moonies and the Wahhabis---instigate or commit some act of politically-correct violence. Here in the Prozac Nation, we're accustomed to pundits on both the Far Left and Far Right suggesting that political issues are best solved by extirpating one's opponents. Thus we've already seen during Holy Week mass-shootings in San Bernardino, Atlanta, and Tucson.
Though there is some positive news: a Wisconsin Anarchist who threatened attacks on churches this Easter has been caught after a 10-day manhunt. Good thing we're not a Third-World country like Egypt, where churches get blown up at Easter...no, we're exceptional. People like Joseph Jakobowski and Dylann Roof notwithstanding.
Over the last few decades of rampant narcotic-abuse and fake-news, these violent political impulses have seeped into foreign policy. George Bush Senior---one of the architects of the Deep State---learned that by dumbing-down schools and playing the press, pipsqueak dictators like Manuel Noriega and Saddam Hussein could be portrayed as serious threats to the United States. War could sold and packaged like fake spectator-sports which the Ameroboob could watch on his big-screen while smoking pot and eating popcorn. Haiti, Serbia, Somalia, Afghanistan, Ukraine, Libya, Syria---all of these with their comic-book crazed super-villain leaders waiting for the heroic Americans to liberate them---was cheaper for the Media than producing actually good fiction.
The Corporate Media also found that not only does war sell, but domestic violence does too. Recently, the Jodi Arias Case was more important to the national interest than say, upgrading our collapsing infrastructure. They also learned that by making psychotic mass-killers famous, they could spawn copy-cat killings and cash in on even more violence.
So in the spirit of the season, an interesting story came out today from the Cincinnati Metro Area: another hotbed of drug-addiction and violence. Butler County Sheriff Richard Jones has advocated deploying the MOAB on Mexico.
"I've been saying this for 10 years." Jones tweeted, "Enough is enough! This MOAB can be used on Mexican drug cartels. These are good days ahead."
Now, wouldn't Jesus be proud? It interesting to note this Easter that the same Roman Empire who crucified Christ was eventually converted to Christianity---and not by dropping mega-bombs. Mexico might actually appreciate the US a little more if the Deep State would stop arming and funding these drug cartels; if the US actually started doing something about our addiction rates that create economic demands for these cartels; if we gave the Mexican Army and police some practical assistance on defeating these gangs---and maybe---just maybe---instituting some fair trade practices that help mutually boost our economies; then we'd likely see more long-benefit than dropping MOABs on Mexican cities.
Of course, the Christian thing to do is lost on Neocon pinheads like Sheriff Jones. Pope Francis actually visited a jail recently and performed the Easter ritual of foot-washing on some prisoners. No doubt the smart boys like Sheriff Jones are smirking and consider Francis a chump; even though the Pope was emulating Christ's example. Francis was illustrating the truth that no matter what sins one has committed; or what one's situation in life is, one is never beyond the reach of God in prayer. "His Hand is stretched out still" as the prophets say; but our postmodern Moabites need human sacrifices for the new Molochs.
It wouldn't hurt most of our own Elites to open a Bible occasionally and realize that the ancient Moabites came to a rather bad end; while the Prince of Peace was born just across their border. But try and explain this to the Ameroboob---too caught up in his own hubris to believe he's anything but some version of God's Chosen People, and you're struck with immediate outrage on MOAB-levels.
We are learning today that yesterday's much-ballyhooed MOAB strike in Afghanistan did very little actual damage to the Taliban. The Jihadists lost about 40 soldiers out of the estimated 40,000 operating in the area. One of the Taliban commanders believed that the damaged tunnel will be repaired this weekend. Still it was a less-expensive photo-op than the Syria strike, where we learned that it takes 10 Tomahawk Missiles to kill 1 Syrian soldier; and 60 can put an airbase out of commission for roughly 8-10 hours. Generation Snowflake just isn't up to martial standards of the past, it seems.
Even more troubling, though, was the announcement by Afghan commander General John Nicholson that he deployed the MOAB without consulting President Trump. Trump's decision to give field commanders more latitude might be a good decision---except for one problem. 'Mad Dog' Mattis, like 'Rainbow Rex' Tillerson has left Obama apparatchiks like Nicholson in charge of these decisions.
Nicholson was appointed by Obama and the situation in Afghanistan has steadily deteriorated under his tenure. Opium production is up a whopping 4000 times its levels since 2001. The Taliban have gained strength; while there are reports that US troops are guarding heroin production facilities and homosexual orgies where Afghan warlords delight themselves with underage boys. Most of Nicholson's media notoriety centers on his proclivity to launch airstrikes on weddings and funerals while never hitting the Taliban. He was the general who bombed Kunduz Hospital, for example.
General Joseph Votel, commander of CENTCOM, is a character we've written about often during the Obama Administration. An utter toady of Obama; Votel hasn't been replaced. It's probably no exaggeration to claim that Votel is the most incompetent commander in US Military history. Yet, it was on his 'ironclad assurances' that Trump attacked a Syrian Airbase last week. Votel followed this up just two days later by accidentally bombing US-backed rebels in Syria (again); and civilian targets in Iraq (again).
Votel is so inept that opinion polls in the Middle East show that most Arabs actually believe that he's secretly in the employ of ISIS. His airstrikes have actually killed more allies and civilians than terrorists---probably in part because he courteously leaflets ISIS forces warning them in advance of attacks. Last October, he caused an international incident when he missed ISIS and bombed the Syrian Army. His supply-airdrops are notorious too for landing on ISIS and Al-Qaeda forces.
As for his 'ironclad intel'; Votel was caught totally off-guard by the attempted coup in Turkey and nearly lost 90 atomic warheads to the Jihadists. When CENYCOM set up in Jordan, Votel 'carefully vetted' civilian contractors who handled weapons shipments. Over half the weapons were stolen and sold on the Black Market. Votel also once 'carefully vetted' US-backed rebels for a proposed attack on Raqqa. ISIS defeated and massacred these forces.
Votel was also commander during the debacle when 10 Marines were captured by the Iranian Coast Guard and publically humiliated.
The situation in Korea isn't much better. Admiral Harry Harris, appointed by Obama to head the Pacific Fleet, is in charge of this looming disaster. Harris' poltroonery was largely responsible for the collapse of Obama's Asian Pivot. The Fat Leonard Scandal, too, caught a lot of Harris' underlings in the dragnet.
Once when Obama was visiting Alaska, a Chinese Task Force sailed undetected through the Pacific Fleet to the Bering Strait and was within missile range of POTUS himself. The inept Harris learned of this after some fishermen took pictures of the Chinese ships and it was reported in the press. Harris was formerly Obama's commander at Guantanamo and later commanded Hilary Clinton's intervention in Libya. He was involved in the Benghazi cover-up; Operation Fast and Furious, etc.
Are these the kinds of people any sane leader would trust with advanced arsenals? Even Obama had so little confidence in these jokers that he made them get his approval before making major decisions. And that is the point: Trump shouldn't have any confidence in them either.
What needs to happen is that Trump needs to kick Mattis' butt and start making him drain the Pentagon Swamp before one of these knuckleheads causes a global catastrophe. Not to mention that all of these poltroons are huge Obama supporters and completely in sympathy with DNC intrigues against Trump's policies.
We need to start worrying a lot more about the real enemies without, instead of imaginary enemies without.
It has been a virtual trademark of the Whacko Left to compare any and all of their enemies to Hitler and the Nazis. Most of them are wholly ignorant of the Second World War, and to them the 1940s are as remote a period as the time before Noah's Flood. Lately though, whackos on the Far Right have been copying Liberal rhetoric along with Liberal policies. Outside of the Manosphere and a few extremes of the Alt-Right, nobody enthusiastically embraces Naziism as an actual philosophy.
The Neocons have learned from the Liberals that the US is filled with ignoramuses who, because of their drug addictions and lack of education, are easily 'triggered' by the most idiotic and senseless memes and neologisms. First of all, White House spokesman Sean Spicer compared Syrian statesman Bashir Assad to Hitler. Spicer informed us that "not even Hitler gassed his own people". Actually, Hitler did and Assad didn't: and it actually happens historically that Syria fought with the Free French during WW2. But Spicer wouldn't know this; which is no handicap in Postmodern America because nobody else knows and could care less.
Not to be outdone, North Carolina legislator Larry Pittman compared former President Lincoln to Hitler. "Lincoln was the same sort of tyrant, and responsible for the deaths of over 800,000 Americans in a war that was unnecessary and unconstitutional." Pittman proudly displayed his stupidity.
Assad and Lincoln have many things in common, although their political philosophies are widely different. Both were inexperienced leaders when assuming office, and both were targeted by vested global interests for overthrow. Both saw violent revolutionaries overrun large portions of the country; but were able to rally patriots to defend the nation. Lincoln was a man of faith who fought a perverted Christianity that sought to bring back a Mediaeval Aristocracy. Assad is man of faith who is fighting a perverted Islam which seeks to bring back a Mediaeval Caliphate.
Thus it is unsurprising that both men would be hated by enemies of freedom. The Left, of course, hates everybody who more virtuous than themselves. But why the antagonism from the Right?
It is because of what we have been saying for months: neither the Neocons nor the Far Right are real Conservatives. Both sides---at the core of their philosophies---hold to a primitive Tribalism which seeks to subjugate and control what they consider inferior peoples. It's the phony Cult of the Superman---or Alpha as the Red Pills call it. They only differ on which faction should be running the New World Order.
Had it not been for Abraham Lincoln, literally millions of Americans would be living under some form of forced labor today. The Antebellum South was not the paradise it is commonly portrayed to be. There was massive income inequality not only among races, but among Whites themselves. There was no Middle Class as we understand it. The Southern Aristocracy considered other Whites as White Trash. Most Whites lived in abject poverty; as the wealthy slaveholding class had access to free labor.
Poor Whites in the Old South had little more rights than the Black Slaves. The Oligarchy controlled state and local governments at all levels. When the Confederacy was established, any White who was pro-Union had no civil rights and often suffered property confiscation. The Confederates treated Union prisoners-of-war with the most hideous barbarity and cruelty. In some Southern POW camps, the mortality rate was over 50%.
White Union officers who commanded the 'Buffalo Soldier' regiments were not treated as POWs, but as leaders of servile insurrection. Several captured officers were hanged after sham trials. As for the Confederate Army itself, it was mostly a mixture of a criminal class of Whites and foreign mercenaries---who were enticed by offers of rapine and plunder in the Northern States. Exactly the same types who formed Tory Militias during the War of Independence.
Southern Churches preached that slavery was the Will of God and the Southern Aristocracy was a chosen people defending the true faith. Sounds a lot like ISIS, doesn't it? Yet this what the Neoconservatives and the Neo-Confederates would like to see governing all mankind.
