The Devil makes three

Why should Iraq hold to borders the British drew? Oligarchs will tell you it’s about stability in the region. That translates as oil, black gold, Texas ’T’. (Earl Scruggs pickin’ hillbilly music in the background). The truth is Iraqi borders and oil both are anachronisms. Why not let the Kurds the Sunnis and the Shia slice up the place on their own? 

We live at a juncture in history where technology can supply all our energy needs from renewables. Time to let go of fossil fuel.  Same with Monotheistic Zealotisum (I can feel the grammar police moving in to slap on the cuffs saying ‘there’s no such word!)  you get the picture right? The my God is better then your God crap pollutes our minds like carbon dioxide from fossil fuel does our air. Combine that with a corporatocracy that holds economic and media control and you got real issues. 

That being the case what we need now from technology is a new way to do revolution. If possible, a way that no one will get until it’s over. Come on all you brilliant young minds out there, if you can build a smart phone you can figure this one out.The old style revolutions can’t work in todays world.  Regardless of what NRA dimwits think. All it takes is a few generals to give the order and the whole population of the United States could be mowed down or signed up in a week or two. So we need a new way. 

When we hear ‘stability in the region’ and think it has real meaning, our planets stability continues to decay. So stability is a non-sequitur if we keep doing what we are doing. As we focus on Iraq, Iran, and the “stability of the region” we don’t work on the real task, which is fundamental and sustained change. Which by definition defines the opposite of conservative. Up to now the conservatives have run a bate and shift game with obscene profits being made by the neocons at the helm.  Don’t be fooled, they know what they are doing.  

So let the Iraqi’s draw their own lines in their lands. What’s wrong with three autonomous nation states, The Kurds in the north, the Sunni in central, and the Shia in the south? The Sunni and Shia will have to come to some agreement on how they behead each other, or not that’s true, but we are pushing seven Billion of us on this little ball after all.     

So lets forget oil as an energy source and work on retooling our planet earth for continuing its journey, with us on board. It’s never easy rebuilding in flight but we have no place to land. So we really need that new way of revolution because sure as dogs get ticks plutocrats and their corporate offspring will be their, Army, Marines, Navy, National Guard and who knows how many  pea brained yahoos with personal Walmart and Cabela’s armories waiting. 

How hard can it be? A new revolution stabilizing what is now a cracked and braking world. I know if we put our minds together this new way of revolution can be discerned. And until then lets let the Kurds, Sunni’s and Shia sort out their issues among themselves.

Read between the lies 

Can you believe what we’re hearing from mainline news media. Not just Fox news! Here we are just 2 years out of a war that should never have occurred and all the bozos who got us into it in the first place are all of a sudden being touted as experts? Experts on what how to give our nation and its power to their buddies.

The media continues to bring in the likes of John McCain, Dick Chaney, and other Iraq war proponents as experts in Iraq today. How many times does someone have to be completely wrong before you go to better source? Dick Cheney are you kidding me? Somebody actually gave him space in a major news paper to continue to show how ignorant he is? Hay folks we already new that, why not  give the space to someone who might have something useful to say, Like John Oliver?

Yeah I know these people are all very important political figures elected to office by a bunch of other bozos who can't pour soup out of a bowl with directions on the bottom; thank you Ronald Reagan for supplanting education with whatever it is schools do now.    

You know it strikes me that these corporate sweethearts are our version of middle eastern  suicide bomber recruiters. First they get education out of the way, then drum up the undereducated into believing that all this somehow is connected to God, Jesus and patriotic heroics. All the time counting their Money. 

So how is it we have become a nation of such an ignorant population that we would actually listen to these idiots pontificate about something which they used only to profit from. And in that only themselves and their good friends. 

It would seem everybody would've figured out by now how completely manipulated the nation had been with our involvement in Iraq. That it was in the end without any real reason other then a poser preppy presidents need to show Saddam that ‘Texans don’t take lightly to trash talk' (unless it’s our buddies in the Taliban or the Saudis) So please can we try to find some reasonable voices in this, and leave all those anachronisms which should be relegated to a dark (very dark) slice of history out of it!
