Any day now. Yep, any day...Ah the Iranian nuclear program. The wonder device of modern policy making. You know, they are doing quite well really, I'm fairly confident they will get there very very soon.<br />
<br />
Why only in the late <b>70s</b> the US received intelligence that the Shah has set up a nuclear weapons program. Thats what? 30 years ago? Good god, those Iranians sure work fast.<br />
Then <b>1979</b> came, the revolution kicked out the Shah, the US stopped supplying enriched uranium and for a time nothing was mentioned about it, but surely they were still working on it n secrecy right? Right?!<br />
I mean there is no other explanation as to why in 1984 when the Bushehr reactor was still unfinished West-german Intel claimed they are almost there. <br />
Then in <b>1992</b>(by that time weren't they supposed to have nukes? It seems the quality of the cold and calculating german mind is not what it used to be) Israel claimed several times that Iran is trying to get nuclear weapons, or almost there, or will get them in a few years. The USA joined in the chorus, crying Wolf! for the better part of the decade, outlets like the New York Times or Christian science monitor giving them anything from 5 to 10 years until they finally have The Bomb.<br />
After <b>9/11</b>, Iran was labelled part of the Axis of Evil(why nobody asked them on their opinion? What if they wanted to call themselves the Justice League or Legion of Doom or something? So very rude...) and their nuclear abilities were put on par with North Korea(which supposedly managed to get the bomb by now).<br />
After the dust was settled on the Iraqi battlefields, the saber rattling increased progressively with each year. Bush claimed a nuclear Iran could lead to WW III (might be true, question is - who will start it hmmm?) Dick Cheney waved his finger too, but with both of them soon to be out of office, the heat was toned down a bit.<br />
<br />
But in <b>2010-2011</b> things heated up. A nuclear Iran was called the greatest threat to the survival of the jewish people since Hitler(I think we should make a measurement unit from his name, like Newton, Watt, etc. but it will be used to describe honestly bad people or simply those who say Israel should tone down on the bombing of Palestinians."Nah he's small fry - only 0.01 hitlers on my reading".) A good number of reports came out with all sorts of timeframes - from 6 months to 5 years to tomorrow.<br />
<br />
Aaaand that brings us to present day, when Iran is more or less juuust about to get the bomb. Again. They are probably right too. I mean come on -they've been at it for 3 decades...Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-562048957270702581.post-76495779537784706122011-12-25T00:15:00.000-08:002011-12-25T00:15:05.530-08:00Boston University may be forced to hand over the secret I.R.A. interviews.<a href="http://www.courthousenews.com/2011/12/22/42491.htm">Which were you know...supposed to be completely confidential.</a><br />
<br />
But as it turns out, they were not. So much for academic freedom it seems - it all depends on the judge now. Now of course its obvious why the UK would want those, no questions asked there. However, digging in old wounds may not be the best idea right now. The entire world is up to the neck right now, last thing the UK needs is to poke the IRA in the eye with a pig sticker. Even if the interviews remain confidential, as the article pointed out, this rather interesting experiment at live history will die out with it. The very fact that an attempt was made to seize those interviews, means no one will risk doing them again.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-562048957270702581.post-34342811296222092782011-12-24T13:43:00.000-08:002011-12-24T13:43:11.979-08:00Police brutality at Occupy Berkeley<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/Cg-maHNl6gs?feature=player_embedded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> Well, another clip of what has become typical for the OWS movement has emerged. The cops on this one seem completely carefree to act as they like despite the cameras. The more dangerous implication however, is that these are not even riot cops, they got only uniforms and batons, nothing else, yet they are clearly crossing the line without thinking what will happen if someone across said line cracks and fights back. You are not supposed to aggravate protests unless you can handle it later on. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

At least the Romans brought civilization with them, and by civilization I don't mean McDonalds, I mean roads, running water, sanitation, public buildings. Unlike a certain other starting with U and ending on SA. Where they go, civilization ends. Iraq is now a tribal/sectarian mess, roads are bombed out and dangerous, you can forget about running water and electricity and schools and such?

Company sized unit. Its been 10 years already and if the Afghani insurgents(I'm not going to call them Taliban) are emboldened enough to try something that big, because come on - major attack means major retaliation, gunships and bombs will arrive in no time, they are on the rise again.

They have no reason to do anything else. They don't believe they are being "liberated", but they get to see the money syphoned out from the Karzai's government faster that the rate of UAV attacked weddings and funerals.

Karzai's words can't be misinterpreted - he has very little say in his own country except inside the capitol, so if he's saying Afghanistan will assist Pakistan if the US attacks it, its because that's what will happen.Not much a president can do if his entire country is not listening to him. Unfortunately the Hope for the best, ignore the rest mentality is still running rampant in places where it really shouldn't be - the Pentagon and NATO headquarters that is.

Except that well, it isn't. As it was said not too long ago, this is only the "end of the beginning" for Libya. The frightening similarities between what happened in Iraq and whats happening in Libya draw a bleak future for it. The NTC lacks popular support.

Especially examples of what not to do. Right now, everyone with half a brain who looks at the coast of Africa is making some simple calculations.<br />
<br />
1. The West cannot be trusted one bit. <br />
2. Giving up your weapons programs won't save you.<br />
3. Kim Jon Il might be ill, but he is also very much OK(another stupid pun, couldn't resist) and no one dares to do as much as raise a finger agaisnt him even when he shells another country.<br />
4. The Great Leader has nukes. Gaddafi gave them up. Saddam gave up on his WMDs too.<br />
<br />
Well I don't see two of the above mentioned 3 on the world stage anymore. Do you? The painfully obvious conclusion is that you need a proper deterrent if you want to survive when the USA&NATO are looking at you funny, and I don't mean a UN resolution. You need nukes, or at worst enough chemical agents to really really scare people. So I'm doing this moderately wild guess, that nuclear proliferation will go over the top. Same with other WMDs. Everyone that fears Western intervention will do whatever possible to get some. And, as it always happens in commerce(even this kind of commerce) some of those things will be lost and eventually find their way in very wrong hands.<br />
<br />

Neither Wall Street. Its not that they've done nothing wrong, its just that we would have done the same in a similar situation. Consider it for a moment. What is the goal of the free market? Profit. What is the motto of the Invisible hand? That the market will regulate itself. But combine it with point 1 and you see that the market will regulate itself to provide maximum profit FOR ITSELF. What happened is painfully simple. Given free reign in return of the vague promise that they won't do what they did...well, results are in. All of those financial institutions tried to grab as much as they want, and truth is, they ARE too big to fail - the global economy depends on it, we can't halt it or everything will go to hell. Lovely isn't it?<br />
<br />
So yeah don't cry when your credit card goes out. Just look at the name of it- <u>Credit - card</u>. That means you/me/someone/ will have to pay for all of this. Eventually. Its what's happening now pay day on a world scale. Occupy Wall Street is both right and wrong. They are right that something has to be done, but they are protesting at the wrong place.

Anyone?Right now the Libyan rebels are in the process of dividing the spoils even before they have secured their hold of the country. The last thing is unlikely for the simple reason of the first one. They are not a unified force and infighting will be inevitable. As long as the oil and natural gas are flowing to certain preferred traders (The Spice must flow! ) who cares about the rest? The Libyan people will get an Iraqi style democracy - that is the gang with Western support will be on top and car bombs, shootouts and the like will barely occur - only a few times a week to keep everyone interested and to give the new government a reason to cry for support, money and so on to fight the remaining hidden cells of loyalists(if there are none, we will make some, its easy) and the lesser gangs. Meanwhile Russia is angry for the cancelled weapon deals worth $4 billion but hey its always fun to poke at Russia, at least until they turn the gas valve and wish you a happy and only moderately cold winter. You don't have to be a scientist to guess who will get the sweet deal to arm and supply the new Libyan army and considering that everyone and their grandmother knows it will have a fair share of fanatics, extremists, Al Queda and so on, the irony of this is delicious.<br />
<br />

Notice I did not mention Syria even once. Nobody cares about it.

That is nice and as you can guess there is a great deal of very very naughty things written in newspapers, belonging to one side or the other, on TV, radio, internet and whatnot. Now one thing in particular caught my attention. Just before the election a "book" made in mockery of the current prime-minister comes out. Its complete nonsense and outright slander obviously made to appeal to the same category of people who called Barack Obama a monkey. That's not the annoying part of it. The annoying part of it, is that its from big publishing house, it had TV commercials, newspaper commercials...come on! Is that the best that can be done? Its insulting to for most of us, not because its insulting to the prime minister, but above all to our own intelligence. Seriously its elections after all, everyone is supposed to fight dirty, it would have been more cost-effective to buy some votes with the amount of money spent on this nonsense!Unknownnoreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-562048957270702581.post-31452707499347018542011-08-31T05:11:00.000-07:002011-08-31T05:11:07.252-07:00Camels and GRADNow lets get down to it. And the issue of the day - Libya. I don't know what part of it I like the most. The blatant disregard of international law, the yet another proof that no one cares about the UN, or the fact that yes, its about the oil again. It started well you know. At first it had something that looked like a genuine revolution like those in Egypt and Tunis. Oh and there was so much coverage in the first few months and everyone was cheering on. But then the rebels goofed, the idealists got killed off and all kind of bandits, fanatics and outright gangs came to represent the "rebellion". Are there Islamic fundamentalists among them? Certainly. Will they rear their heads and do something nasty once they get in power? You bet. Gaddafi was like Saddam, not nice, oh mind you I do hope they give him the chinese torture kamasutra in hell(1001 ways of bending the human body you've never heard of) but he was in control. Nothing happened without his knowedge. Now...well, it doesn't take a PhD to see the anarchy that is coming. As if it wasn't already enough.

But right now, its going straight in a proper direction, and writing about politics in it, is likely to cause a lot of drama and distraction, which I find unnecessary. So, here I'm going to express my opinion, insight, understanding(if any at all) of world events and the course they are taking us on. Unknownnoreply@blogger.com5
