Pity the nation whose people are sheep

And whose shepherds mislead them

Pity the nation whose leaders are liars

Whose sages are silenced

And whose bigots haunt the airwaves

Pity the nation that raises not its voice

Except to praise conquerers

And acclaim the bully as hero

And aims to rule the world

By force and by torture

Pity the nation that knows

No other language but its own

And no other culture but its own

Pity the nation whose breath is money

And sleeps the sleep of the too well fed

Pity the nation oh pity the people

who allow their rights to erode

and their freedoms to be washed away

My country, tears of thee

Sweet land of liberty!

–-“PITY THE NATION”

Lawrence Ferlinghetti (After Khalil Gibran) 2007

Caitlin I am sure you catch a lot if shit from the idiot citizens of my country. This is just to say I appreciate you so much - even your anger and frustration and occasional vulgarity - which is nothing compared to our complicity in maiming and burning children.

I cannot listen to the voices of shills for the empire managers any more. Those snakes writhe and weave to cover the truth and threaten those who would try to expose it. Biden, Blinken, Trump, McConnell, all snakes with different stripes.

iZrael was in possession of Hamas' Oct 7th jail break plan a full year before.

The entire political/intelligence/military leadership read Hamas' plan.

.

**iZreal recognized that Hamas' written plan for Oct 7th could not succeed without iZrael's help.**

.

iZrael limited access to the information gained from monitoring Hamas' hand-held radio network to a select few insiders.

.

They had to ignore the alerts being sounded by border watchers.

.

They had to give a thumbs-down to written reports by intelligence officers

warning of an imminent Oct 7th (extraordinary, but this happened!).

.

*They had to remove the vast majority of the IDF troops surrounding Gaza just in time for Oct 7th.*

.

Once the jail break was under way support troops had to be delayed for hours. (They refuse to explain why this happened, stating that they will "investigate" only after Hamas is defeated.)

.

They had to implement the Hannibal Directive in order to achieve maximum civilian casualties.

.

The confluence of too many huge failures and too many horrible decisions

to be a credible accident, it was premeditated. An Intentional Defense Failure (IDF).

.

Little Lanny's legs ran so fast

To the big truck of flour -

Ocean waves could not keep up -

With little Lanny's heart beat beat strut.

When those Israeli tough men shot her down

With their shiny, bullet happy rounds -

In the distance a mother wailed and

The wind blew over - little footprints in the sand.

Thank you Caitlin. Tears again. After the obscenity of the dancing orcs in Congress making a mockery of "democracy" at the "State of the Union" address, delivered by the Cadaver In Chief as he spreads his slime baptizing the wanton throng. Excuse me while I pause to throw up. This is real social pathology--akin to Nazism ironically. What happened to us?

There must be a permanent ceasefire in Gaza in order to comply with the ICJ ruling. Not with Palestinians suffering under oppressive conditions, but as a place where all live with peace and equality. It is time for Pope Francis to do more than talk. He must go to Gaza and make a stand for peace and freedom.

Good question. I will keep asking. The rest is on him, no? Plus, part of what I want to do is encourage people to think outside the current political, nation-state box. So, I think of this as one thing we can do, and look forward to your ideas of actions to take.

Head of Yeshiva Seder in Jaffa: According to the Halakhic Principle-Kill everyone in Gaza, even babies - ynet.co.il, Mar 8 2024 (machine translation)

The head of the Seder yeshiva in Jaffa, whose students serve in the IDF after their studies there, said at a conference of Seder yeshiva held yesterday (Thursday) that according to the halakhic principle, all residents of Gaza should be killed. When asked specifically about the elderly and babies, he replied: "Same thing."

...

"It's either you – or them," Rabbi Maley added. "No soul shall live on the basis of 'Bring to kill you – bring to kill you'. Not just the 14-year-old, 16–year-old, 20-year-old, 30-year-old man holding up arms - but the future generation as well. And also for those who produce the future generation. Because there really is no difference.

So, the saga of how to expand the range of total and by all means self-inflicted, in biblical scale and scope an colossal cluster f..... called Ukraina, after humping the cold war, and uh.... won, as they claim, expanded ZATO all the way to the Russian underbelly and despite been warned for the same amount of decades, they just humped on, and of course, now they howls claims about look, we where right, Russia is bad, bad,bad, bad, and we, of course, dinnydu nuffin.

Right.

And Slavs bleeds in a war where the scums sits way out of range, and uses their owned MSM to pimp the to any given time is the right way to think and otherwise just shut the f..... up, look we have the so called "experts".

And then everything have just gotten worse.

Just an friendly advice in this troubled times, and thats to go outside and do some gardering, and dont read news for a while, it helps on your consciousness and digestive systems, and that means it will improve your health, a win-win, since clarity is an effect of calming down, lesser noise so to speak.

The thing most dont go into is what drives this wars, one thing most also dont realize is how deep into do do is the Imperial banana republic UssA (the Union of Sociopaths, Scumbags and Assholes) really is,

with an Full Spectrum Dominance religious cult driving the bandwagon and flags high, it have by an variety of idiotic sanction regimes to simply steal, lie and cheat to an scale witch is jaw dropping. And acts like we dont know anything and cant see it, yeah, I think sometimes they are so f.... up that they even belive their consensuses and narrative created out of thin air, and humped on as facts about others.

The Only Semitic people in this fight is the Palestinians, its de facto and de jure indisputabel, it just is, period, and thereby an slam group of Lets for the sake of agrements call them Hebrews, and Muslims.

They are even the very people whom was there when Jesus Christ walked the earth.

Against Imposters, I really dont care what they claim I am saying this witch is also ranged into be indisputabel facts, faked Jews. By large, again, I dont give an flying f......, because they have invaded another peoples homeland from 1948 all tho the fundament was placed by the Balfour decl. 1918 and taken, by the help of UK and the Banana republic UssA. and International bankers whom by large is ruled by Jews, again, not that Jews is a genuine race, not, to day, and by large Eastern Europeans claiming they are Jews. I dont even care, again because its simply irrelevant because of the present conflict is driven by present forces. And they are not native at all.

And to then drag shit and what I define as prof of how good the western propaganda machinery have and stil is. Manufacturing consent is an art form, and you dont see it because, you either dont want to, denies the facts despite its weight, or just paddles along, doing the noble are of keeping your mouth shut.

The facts never the less remains the same, what is important and fundamental is the Truth.

ISISrael is an invading force, by large people coming in from the west and demands this for their own sake, justifying it with an text by large faked into be "truths", and when we point to inconsistency they starts to scream hate at you. By dragging into this al sorts of mumbojumbo, when the facts are glaringly obvious.

The reason we have all this wars are by large based upon the, from time immemorial, named as Kick Backs, lubrication is everything, nothing is true, everything is lies, and everything is by now, permitted.

It smells so medieval.

But, to be frank, I am somehow, noticing the ear shattering silence coming from the Arab League, the obvious treason done by the House of Saud, the Rotten pack of criminal scums whom is safe in their palaces in the Persian Gulf region, like UAE. The Turks is driven by one principle, their pockets first, and f..... the rest, how, "Islamic" of them. Egypt is turning out to be the pathetic bitch, a whore to the ZATOs lashes, and have for decades be just general scumbags and have always been along with the terror state ISISrael. They are below the level of criminals.

What I mentioned above about the Uniten, is that the only industrial complex that makes money is the Military, and to make this go round, the lubricate everything, and like the other MIC, the Medical, owned even the MSM, to forums and marked to such an extent that they controls everything.

The UssA have very little left of industry, and sanctions isnt a wise move, since you are way behind already, you need to restructure and make what was the driving force for a long time, ingenuity, and the ability to attract people whom looks forward.

Where did that go.

Thats why the wars will not stop until people knows how corrupted the system actual is. Politicians and inside trading, in the Green scam, vaccines, weapon, finance to wars and with that, even more money lubricating Europa and above all, them selfs, fighting for freedom and democracy.

Yeah, its a divine comedy.

The level of ignorance is baffling, but I dont blame ordinary people, I have always maintained that the true enemy of man is the MSM, and its owners, they know what they are doing, dont doubt that.

Russia is a sorry ass drunkard limping along the highway, and I am also impressed by news like within a week Russian forces lost air-fighters and a AWAC, all done by their own. Are they back to the old days, of "God and Vodka, in an sea of AD systems where their own are the most dangerous ones.

Yup, another day in the asylum.

Yeah, and the uh..... push is where, again, I lost the count on all sides.

You see, thats why I find that right now there is one solution, back the Farmers and burn it all down.

Pitchforks and Guillotines are two remarkable effective tools, to make the NWO understand that they are our problem and nobody else.

Free Palestina from the river to the sea.

Finding The Right Words On Gaza

Wang Yi, the foreign minister of China, has found the right words to describe the ongoing genocide in Gaza:

Chinese foreign minister calls war in Gaza a 'disgrace for civilisation' - AFP / Le Monde, Mar 3 2023

China's Foreign Minister Wang Yi on Thursday, March 7, called Israel's war in Gaza a "disgrace for civilization" and reiterated Beijing's calls for an "immediate ceasefire."

"It is a tragedy for humankind and a disgrace for civilization that today, in the 21st century, this humanitarian disaster cannot be stopped," Wang told journalists at a press conference.
