USS Gerald R Ford: Don Quixote Redux

Look what's in the harbor. It's the USS Gerald R Ford aircraft carrier.It cost $13 billion. This Ford has everything. Except common sense.The ship should have been christened the USS Don Quixote. It conjures floating World Trade Towers.It's a target.Disneyland is in Anaheim. But our morons in the pentagon can deploy their play land any where any time.No wonder the sea levels are rising with the ships 90,000 ton displacement.Pentagon always ready to field a team. Never mind we have not won a war since 1945. The "game's the thing" to quote Shakespeare.Pentagon deserves a personal lesson.

Public Relations Battle :Brutal Drone Warfare vs ISIS Brutality

Do you think the zombies in the pentagon are worried about ISIS tactic of kidnapping and butchering innocents? ISIS claims its tactic is payback time for drone and aerial bombardment killings. Air strikes of any kind include killing combatants and collateral innocents.Not mentioning collateral environmental damage affected by drone explosive bombs.Public relations reactions are at this time strongly against ISIS graphic beheadings ,setting people on fire and simple kidnapping for slave use.Drone and air strike crime scenes aren't photographed.So pentagon goons can escape most critical inspection.But increasingly ISIS is making the connection. Stop drone and aerial bombardment and we will stop our old fashion gruesome killing tactics.Does any one believe them? I mean will they stop?I don't think they will necessarily stop but they don't have to. They are winning the PR campaign against western meddling and worse in Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan, Yemen and who knows where's next.The pentagon has never come up with a peace proposal in its entire existence.They have no credibility. Therefore they should have a lot less money and goons employed.

Drone Sales And Shotguns: Trespassing Not Protected by Law

Peeping tom drones. Delivery drones.Killer drones.What's an earthbound person to do?Can the government auction air space flying lanes to drone users? Can drone flight paths be auctioned off and regulated like wireless carriers do with bandwidth commerce?No. earthbound citizens can't see wireless commerce in the atmosphere. But noisy, ugly and intrusive drones are another story.Shot guns are the last resort.But quiet and untraceable pellet guns are a good way to go. Trespassing is not protected by law.

Google Insurance: Why? Because You Will Need It

The boys at Google are in the news again. This time they are experimenting with drone aircraft. Google wants to get into parcel delivery.They are running tests in Australia. That's not like downtown New York or San Francisco. I guess they want no costly mistakes . After all "What could possibly go wrong with micro drones delivering parcels in an urban setting?" Of course it 's unarmed and like its name suggests it doesn't have a pilot on board either.Its purpose is to deliver packages.That makes FedEx and UPS potential collateral damage.Google has faith in technology. They are the guys that want us all in driverless autos. Also they want us to wear Google Glass so instead of thinking we just do a Google Search. Maybe we will get distracted just a little bit so we also buy something when searching. Are these guys greedy?Any way. The articles that I have reviewed all start the same way. Google's driverless car or Google's drone delivery project..... And then immediately in the next paragraph comes the question. "No one is quite sure of liability questions". But suppose Google all along wanted to get into the insurance business.That's how Warren Buffett made his swag. He took insurance premiums and played the stock market.Why would any one need insurance? No pilot on board! No driver in front seat! That's why you want insurance.

Drone Assassination Killing: Immaculate, Righteous & Ritualistic

The translation of Mozart's "Cosi Fan Tutti" comic opera title says " Everyone is doing it".

The defense of United States drone assassination is that it's saving many lives by killing a few lives. To hear  advocates, drone assassinations approach gods own judgement and execution.. It's immaculate. It's ritualistic. It's righteous. And its cost effective. How can one argue against a god like approach to killing? In the tradition of a long history of celebrated assassins, which include Brutus, John Wilkes Booth, Lee Harvey Oswald, James Earl Ray, Sirhan Sirhan and the many suicide bombers past, present and in the future, you are honored by the highest form of praise ---imitation.

If drones were around in Cole Porters day, he would have included a reference in " You're The Top".

U.S. Drone Policy Invites More 9/11 Events

America's increasing use of drones around the world to kill suspected "enemies" is causing blowback. The "blue on green " killings in Afghanistan is tit for tat. Afghanis who have died from drone strike collateral damage left behind relatives who plot revenge. Drone killings in Yemen, Somalia, Pakistan and other countries that we don't yet know will strike at U.S. targets in the future. The cold blooded killers at the Pentagon think they have a deus ex machina. But in time that creation will morph into an avenging gallows and hang people in the U.S. in another 9/11 type event.

U.S. Troops Killed in Afghanistan by Afghans : The End of A Failed Foreign Policy?

Two more American troops were killed in Afghanistan today by Afghans. This adds to the approxmate 50 in the last two years that have died from targeted asasassinations by supposedl allies. It also is in addition to the seven  that have been recently killed because of the blowback from the recent Koran burning. Also implies the drone aircraft weapon that has been championed by the criminals at the C.I.A has been checkmated by a more efficient procedure. What a stupid war. What a stupid foreign policy. What a stupid leadership in the Armed Srvices.These targeted assassinations could be the end of the war and the end of dreams of empire for America. Good riddance.

Hank Williams Jr.: Freedom of Speech

Poor Hank Williams Jr. The high clergy of political correctness at Fox pulled his music and his spot at the weekly football games.Why? Well he compared President Barack Obama and Speaker of the House John Boehner's recent golf pairing to the likes of Adolf Hitler and Prime Minister Netanyahu playing golf in a hypothetical setting. The point was to make the diametrical opposition of the respective men's political philosophies.Was that a rude, over-the-top comparison and unfairly critical to the president and the Zionist thug? Don't think so.

When one considers the the existing policy of preemptive war in the U.S coupled with the random drone assassinations in the east, how can we be collectively dismayed and shocked at a few words? Frankly if Hitler only killed the likes of Netanyahu-types in his purge, he would not have done such a bad thing. Williams speaks for me.

Libya's Gadhafi Can Remain?

Another example of the insanity of NATO's foreign policy is breaking in the news. Now , NATO and Libyan rebels agree that Colonel Gadhafi can stay in Libya if he steps down from office. So after billions spent, untold deaths of civilians and ruined landscape NATO gives up. I guess that the murder of Iraq's Saddam Hussein has taught the arrogant western crusaders to leave some path of humane succession and leave some of the disappearing infrastructure in place so Libya can emerge as a functioning state. Otherwise they will have to rebuild and police Libya for years to come.

I have one question. Suppose Colonel Daffy Duck in future runs for office and gets elected? NATO's leadership is as thoughtful as the drone aircraft it uses.

Drone Aircraft Going to Libya

The Obama administration is now funding and using U.S. drone aircraft in Libya. Casualities are going to go up in both armed camps in that civil war country. Drones hit innocents in Afghanistan where the targets are in open fields. The Libyan- use drones are planned for close rebel support in urban situations. Sure. What could possibly go wrong? We'll find out. Senator John McCain made a surprise trip to Libya yesterday to give high-fives to rebels. Maybe the little hot head remembers and is embarassed about his 2009 meeting with Libyan representatives? Then he offered Gadaffi U.S. defense products on credit. Gadaffi bought a pile. How come the New York Times isn't mentioning that? Maybe it's old news not fit to print considering we also supplied Iran, Iraq, Egypt, Israel, Saudi Arabia etc.

C.I.A.: Finally There's a Cost to Misdeeds

Could it get any more silly implementing American foreign policy? Today the U.S. recalled its C.I.A. station chief from "ally"Pakistan. A local prosecutor in Pakistan named him -name witheld in our media but is on front page in Pakistan! Wait it gets more stupid. Also named is C.I.A. boss Leon Panetta and Sectretary of Defense Robert Gates as defendants in a lawsuit. The prosecutor wants to recover damages and mete out possible criminal penalties for killing innocents in Pakistan. The method was the drone aircraft. Pakistan gets billions from us so we can do canned hunts in their lands. All good things must come to and end. Now the hunters are being hunted by terrorists who want to kill the C.I.A. station chief after his name was published . His cover is blown , that's why he's  being recalled.

The C.I.A. spends about $ 80 billion a year fomenting trouble around the world. They are kind of like an advance group for our military-industrial complex. You know. They drum up or bomb up business. The C.I.A. create more problems than they prevent. So it's somewht gratifying that these cowards are getting some real heat. Maybe Leon Panetta should resign and open a pizza shop with Gates as a delivery boy?

US Drone Aircraft: For Cowards & Bullys

America use of drone aircraft to kill from afar enables a whole new group of cowards and bullys to enter warfare. We will be starting a lot more "preemptive wars". And we will someday meet our Nemesis who will present us a bill to pay in at least equal destruction.
