The Verdict of the American People on Wikkileaks

“I went down to the market place,

where all the children shop”

“I pulled out my machete – and I began to chop”.

This is one of the songs US soldiers are forced to sing by their commanding officers. They say that 150,000 civilians of Iraq were killed in the war. We had a 360 degree policy of firing in a complete circle killing every living person in sight, at the site of any IED explosions. There were raids against civilians from hilocopters, and abuses at check points. It is well pointed out that all of this abuse lessens rather than increases US security, and that the whole Iraq war is not a was of national security but rather a “war of choice” which has the effect of lessening national security. If the Obama administration doesn’t get their head out of their ass on this one they will be no better than the Bush Administration before them. There appears to be no cleavage of differentiation between the Bush and Obama administrations on this whole War thing. Any moral authority Obama had during the campaign is now shot. He campaigned on the notion that the Iraq war was immoral, and now his administration is endorsing it. But the thing is these wikki-leaks aren’t sharing information with the enemy. The enemy knows they’ve been killed. It’s only the US population whom they want to keep in the dark, so that the party in power can win the next election. The question is what the verdict of the American people will be. There seems to be a strong strain of “My country – right or wrong” in the Republican party. We know the Republicans can get on the radio and tell lie after lie about the US economy week after week, and the American people eat up every word. Their powers of critical thinking are “gone” when it comes to the economy. Have the American people last their reason when it comes to the War also? The thing is these documents in wikki-leaks are generally American documents put together to put the best possible light on the war and American morality. It’s American atrocities in our own words, kind of like Samantha Brady. But someone decided that despite the fact these documents were originally designed for public consumption, we better not release them. People see us Vetterans as angelic victims who were self-sacrificing and noble, and yet you know the people who committed these atrocities are “veterans” also, now. You know it used to be that being a Christian meant you were against war. But I don’t even think I want to hear Neil Savedra’s opinion on these documents by wikki-leaks. You know we were told that Iraqi civilian deaths were never counted or documented. And now we know that indeed they were counted, and that the figure is sky high. I don’t know how long American can continue to exist as a country with its policy of contempt for the lives of every other citizen in the rest of the world.

You know they flipped the stars on the Republican logo upside down in 2000 for the first time in history, turning them into Satanic pentagrams denoting the Goat with the horns and the beard. In Tarot cards everyone knows that in an inverted card has an evil meaning and that a right side up card has a beneficial meaning. If you read my writings you know that perhaps the original “Cross” insignia of the Christian church was the upside down cross. It was the cross of distress because a Roman guard had to be executed for letting the prisoner Crestus, escape in the night, so that the life of a Roman has to be forfeited. It would seem that the Republican party made a pact with evil in the year two thousand, and they promised a whole different kind of foreign policy. But what really hurts is that Obama, a man who campaigned on a platform of Peace, has taken up this mantel of the upside down pentagram, and adopted the policy as his own.

According to George Washington’s blog not only are 70% of stock transactions done by computer these days, but the average stock is held an average of eleven seconds! I can’t believe that. It’s clear that what we need is some sort of national trading tax like they have in Hong Kong and other places of a half of a percent or something to slow down these trades. A small investor could not possibly compete because he pays a fat percentage of the trade to his broker for each stock transaction, no matter how small.

Not only do sometimes real estate loan companies not want to bail out home owners who are in default, but indeed these loan companies have contracts with investors to seemingly meet a quota of home foreclosures, because for some perverse reason unknown to me, these loan companies make more money from foreclosures than they do from home owners continuing to pay. In fact employees who think they are there to help home owners with a loan and to get through a financial crisis are in for a rude awakening when they are in fact repermanded and penalized for helping out a home owner.
