Thanx Robin, for your remarks yesterday on religion.

I can tell when folks, like you, hit a big MEME (bigger than a paradigm;).

My peeps across the internet hit on the same one. At the same time.

Like the light bulb was invented simultaneously across the globe.

or the plane was invented at the same time.

The Big Ideas are grasped simultaneously/instantly across the globe.

Just so religion & problem solving taxonomies:

"Try to imagine for a moment the likes of Katie Couric, Anderson Cooper or the vacuous Brian Williams going on the air and directly defying the President and the whole American military establishment like that. It is simply not conceivable.

peakwatch.typepad.com/decline_of_the_empire/

"then they probably won’t believe it.

The same is true for peak oil. It’s an abstract study of many interrelated, complex factors which cannot be seen firsthand, and lots of unfamiliar data. Understanding it fully requires spending tens of thousands of hours in taxing, System 2-type thinking. (And having spent tens of thousands of hours on it, I can also tell you that for the most part, it’s deeply unpleasant.) The implications of it conflict immediately and directly with most of our experience, especially for those who aren’t old enough to remember the gasoline shortages of the ’70s. It doesn’t have the same ring as “Drill, baby, drill,” and it doesn’t rhyme. And then, if you’re one of those odd autodidactic birds who’s gone far out of your way to become literate in the subject, you’ll find yourself virtually alone with the knowledge, and most people you know will think you’ve lost your mind, your sense of humor, and your “optimism.” Tribal tendencies

www.smartplanet.com/blog/...ing-our-energy-future/500

"The late, great author and blogger Joe Bageant used to refer to the media as the American Hologram, a term that I have borrowed to employ frequently on this blog because it so perfectly describes what it has become, especially on television. It must be said, however, that this was not always the case. There was a quaint time in America, oh say about 44 years ago, when anchorman Walter Cronkite could effectively spell the doom of yet another American mindless military adventure by uttering the following words on the air: We have been too often disappointed by the optimism of the American leaders, both in Vietnam and Washington, to have faith any longer in the silver linings they find in the darkest clouds.

Hyperbolic Selloff Coming? IMF Discusses Spanish Contingency Plans; Madrid Denies Plans; Hispabonos Dropped From Cabinet Discussion

The latest word of the day is the already approved, then denied, then tabled plan to implement hispabonos was dropped from discussion Friday's cabinet meeting according to La Vangauardia.

In the last three months alone, Draghi has poured €3 trillion into eurozone banks in an effort to keep the day of reckoning at bay. He must have known this was an entire waste of taxpapers’ money from the start, and so as always I’m left wondering whether the guy is just an incurable optimist, or a sociopath more than happy to accept a world in which the only things left are bankers and their head offices. But whatever his motives, we are only one major bank collapse away from the sort of inflexible timetable that started the First World War.

Post Fri Jun 01, 2012 8:48 am by mcgowanjm The problem with being rich and powerful is that you become disconnected from reality.

No one is there(see Jeff Zuckerberg for details) to tell you different. Yes men is all you see.

The enemy is at the gates.....The Non Linear is at hand.....

The market was anxious going in to the NFP print but once the dismal data point hit, things deteriorated rapidly.

Being “in” produces pleasurable effects in our brains, and being “out” produces real, physical pain. Further, our brains have evolved to make us want to seek status in our tribes, and to prefer immediate gratification over distant, theoretical considerations that might limit our consumption. (For an excellent, evergreen essay on this subject, see Nate Hagens’ post on The Oil Drum, “Fleeing Vesuvius.”)

The mere threat of being on the outs with one’s tribe can be enough to make us avoid thinking independently and rationally about issues like peak oil and climate change.

However, De Guindos has stated that the IMF's stress test provides a hypothetical decline in GDP of 4% this year and 2% for next year, prospects "unreal," said.

"The report goes on to say that 70% of Spanish banks can overcome the situation without capital," he underlined Guindos, in an attempt to instill confidence in the situation of Spanish banks.

Anyone who thinks Spain's banks other than Bankia are "perfectly healthy" is a liar or insane.

Published: 04 June, 2010, 04:49 Edited: 09 June, 2010, 05:47 1967 USS Liberty (25.5Mb)

embed video TAGS: Conflict, Middle East, Protest, Law, USA

In June 1967, the Israel military attacked the USS Liberty. A survivor of that attack was onboard the Gaza aid flotilla and has survived yet again to tell the story. Joe Meadors is a pro-Palestinian activist and a survivor of the 1967 Israeli attack on the USS Liberty. That attack by the Israeli Air Force killed 34 Americans. Meadors was onboard one of the Gaza aid flotilla ships. “They Israeli military are very inept, to tell you the truth,” said Meadors.

Israeli forces were unable to sink an unarmed US Naval ship and were unable to adequately engage the Turkish liner.

“It was an illegal attack. We were on the high seas conducting legal activities. They admitted that they closed the area for military purposes but they, we tried to find out the boundaries of that area and they wouldn’t tell us,” said Meadors.

Meadors said that they violated international waters both in the recent flotilla attack and in 1967 at the attack of the USS Liberty, stating that Israel also violated international law by using unmarked aircraft. “They’re just a bunch of rag-tag people who think they can do no wrong.

Every time they speak they say they don’t break any laws, they always abide by international laws. But, they break them with impunity and the US Government is not going to hold them accountable, nobody is,” said Meadors. Meadors expects an investigation will show that Israel violated international law

“My husband died serving his country,” his wife, Allie Brazas, said in a statement released through Naval Base Kitsap.

“He loved his job. We will all miss him and we will never forget him. He is my hero.” Brazas’ father told the Greensboro News-Record that the sailor was shot while trying to help a soldier get in a helicopter.

“I’m proud of him …,” father Ed Brazas told the newspaper. “Freedom is not cheap. We pay for it with the dearest blood.” Brazas is the sixth Washington-based service member to die in Afghanistan this month.

Five soldiers from Joint Base Lewis-McChord have been killed in May. Brazas’ K-9 partner, a dog named Sicario, survived the attack that killed the handler, Danaher said.

What was missed yesterday:

In 2003, Browne struck an $8 billion deal with a group of billionaires to form TNK-BP, the biggest single investment in post-Soviet Russia. Successful Move TNK-BP was Browne’s most successful move, giving BP the biggest Russian presence among the world’s largest oil companies.

Difficult Relationship While profitable, the investors in the TNK-BP venture have had a difficult relationship.

In 2008, Dudley, who was then CEO of TNK-BP, was forced to step down and left Russia after a dispute over company strategy. Last year, the billionaires took BP to arbitration after they cut TNK-BP out of a deal to explore Russia’s Arctic with state-run OAO Rosneft.

One of the Russian shareholders, Mikhail Fridman, resigned as CEO this week, casting renewed doubt on the future of the business. The board hasn’t met this year because shareholders can’t agree on a third independent director.

“It seems rather that BP’s hand has been forced,” said Colin McLean, CEO at SVM Asset Management. “I don’t think this is happening at BP’s choosing. As long as they don’t get a bad price, it draws a line under what doesn’t appear to have been handled well before.”

Day of reckoning time may be 2013. European governments toppled like tenpins. Obama or Romney in America hardly matters. Their agendas are similar on issues mattering most.

Both support militarism, permanent wars, imperial dominance, corporate needs above public ones, painful austerity, and stiff crackdowns on resisters. Going forward, things look grim. Households least able to cope suffer most.

Key indicators point south. The Baltic Dry index historically indicates global economic activity. In May, it slumped about 10%. Future prospects look uncertain or troubled. Only about 20% of companies ventured outlooks. Of those, over half turned negative."

" Analysts paying attention understand. Others suspect the worst. Europe is cratering in crisis. Media reports understate the severity. Sovereign debt is dangerously high. The world is awash in debt. Major banks are insolvent. Bailouts follow earlier ones."

With Obama's 4:12 AM MayDay Bagram Speech, immediately boarding his plane and taking off as the Taliban attacked,

I knew we were at the EndGame. By Xmas the USSA would be out.

You can tell by how a Major Bank is imploding now. The Domestic mirrors the Foreign:

"Print KHOST, Jun. 02 – More than 100 US invading terrorists and tens of their puppets were killed and wounded in the martyrdom operation hit Sahrah Bagh airbase in Khost province.

According to the details, about 11 martyrdom-seeking heroes of Islamic Emirate, Shamsullah and Azimullah Khan coming from Paktia province, Muhammad Naeem, Atiqullah, Muhammad Yaqoob Ibrahimi, Karimullah and Sabeer residents of Ghazni province, Hafiz saifullah from Paktika province, Abdullah from Nangarhar and Abdurrahman from Logar province, stormed Sahra Bagh airfield in capital of Khost province, homes to hundreds of American invading troops.

The team of 11 martyr combatants armored with heavy and small arms and explosives vests in the US military uniforms got into the facility after slamming an explosive-filled truck into the airbase building.

Firstly, Shamsullah on Friday at about 1:00 p.m. carried out a martyr attack trough a truck packed with 10 tons of explosives roughly 10 thousand kilo grams, targeting the hotels and dining areas and gyms within the base in which dozens of the American cowardly troops were blowing to pieces and eliminated.

Soon after this huge and powerful explosion, 10 of 11 martyrdom-seeking Mujahideen entered the base facility and fought with rockets, hand grenades, explosive vests and heavy and light machine guns till 4:00 p.m., killing and wounding several dozens of US invading terrorist troops.

At about 5:00 p.m. Mujahideen detonated a motorbike parked outside near the gate of the base at puppets assisting the invaders in which more than 20 Afghan puppet soldiers were killed and wounded, whereas as many as 170 motorcycles were destroyed in the explosion.

The operation went on till the evening hours of the day in manner that Mujahideen of the Islamic Emirate took the airbase under attack from both inside by 10 combatants fighting the invading forces inside the base and from outside by other Mujahideen which made the enemy forces unable to use any aerial support. Two attack helicopters and a huge military plane as well as many tanks, fuel tankers, vehicles and fuel depots were set on fire and burned to ash.

It was the worst single-day losses for the US invaders and their puppets since the “Operation AL-Farooq” began and the local and western-flounced media’s reports on this successful operation are one-sided and based on false propaganda which attempt to understate the most lethal losses inflicted on the enemies, in particular on US invaders and undermine Mujahideen success. On the other hand, locals of the area and the US invaders themselves are well aware of the ground reality which speaks for itself.

" Both the Guardian and the BBC depend entirely on the logical fallacy of appealing to authority - be it an allegedly qualified witness, or satellite imagery and overwhelming techno-babble. Both news agencies have demonstratively failed to provide any actual evidence to back the narrative they have been irresponsibly reporting since Houla erupted into violence last week.

The narrative has shifted from the Syrian army shelling civilians to death, to soldiers dismounting from tanks and killing civilians at close range, to pro-government militias dismounting from tanks and killing civilians at close range, and now finally, militants in cars, trucks, and on motorbikes killing civilians at close range - which seems to corroborate the Syrian government's own conclusion, that it was terrorists.

The BBC has already been caught outright misrepresenting events in Houla, when they used a picture of dead bodies taken years ago from Iraq in their recent Syrian coverage."

KHOST, Afghanistan (Reuters) - A blast was heard in the eastern Afghan city of Khost on Friday and smoke was rising near a NATO base, a Reuters witness and nearby residents said.

There was no immediate word on casualties. NATO said it was aware of an incident in the area but it was too early to comment. The Afghan Taliban said its fighters rammed a vehicle packed with large amounts of explosives into the base.

Violence has surged across Afghanistan since the Taliban began its yearly summer offensive in April, vowing to target Afghan government and security forces, as well as the 130,000 foreign troops in the country.

A police source said a gunbattle was raging near the base and local security forces were not able to get close to the area.

Stars & Stripes:

"Attack on coalition base in Khost thwarted Stars and Stripes Published: June 1, 2012

Insurgents detonated an explosives-laden truck near the gate of a major American base in Eastern Afghanistan on Friday, kicking off a gun battle in which more than a dozen attackers were killed, U.S. military officials said.

The attackers made it inside the perimeter but no Afghan or U.S. troops were killed, though both U.S. and Afghan troops suffered minor injuries.

The U.S. military has not released the number of injuries or whether civilians were hurt.

The attack began around 1 p.m. at Camp Salerno just outside of Khost, the capital of Khost province. After the initial explosion insurgents, some wearing suicide vests, continued the attack but were repelled by U.S. and Afghan troops, said Maj. Paul Haverstick, a spokesman for the International Security Assistance Force’s Regional Command-East. At least two of the attackers detonated their vests and Haverstick said roughly 14 insurgents died in the attack.

“They tried a complex attack ... and it failed because of the quick reaction of the forces on the ground,” Haverstick said.

The Associated Press quoted a Taliban spokesman as saying that “tens” of foreign forces were killed and wounded and that a plane on an airstrip was destroyed, though the Taliban often exaggerates casualty claims."

Several fighters, including some wearing suicide vests, attacked the base with rocket propelled grenades on Friday.

"As of now, we have reports of 14 insurgents killed," a spokesman for the NATO-led International Security Assistance Force said.

He said the attack on the forward operating base had been foiled, although he was not in a position to provide operational details. There were no casualties among either NATO or Afghan forces.

NATO (whoever they are. Noting absolutely ZERO named officials ever comment for the record.....;}

said it had no reports of any civilians being hurt during the attack.

Lulzzzzz....;}

"The blast was inside the compound and then we heard firing," Jan said. "There is a helicopter flying over the base."

But again, No one but Taliban were killed. And Just took 14 shots to kill all 14....;}

U.S. Army Maj. Paul Haverstick, a spokesman for the coalition in eastern Afghanistan, said no Afghan or foreign troops were killed and only a few coalition forces suffered minor injuries.

So Paul knows....at least we have a name... Haverstick said insurgents detonated a truck loaded with explosives at the entrance to the camp. The explosion allowed other insurgents to enter the compound. Two militants wearing explosive vests blew themselves up prematurely and caused no damage.

My Edit: So the insurgents are inside the base now, but since there was no one at the entrance except for a Day Care Center, no one got hurt, as the Insurgents tripped over each other in their haste to get to an actuall target inside Camp Salerno.....;}

Afghan and coalition forces fired at the group of insurgents. A total of 14 militants died in the attack, he said. Zabiullah Mujahid, a spokesman for the Taliban, claimed that a suicide bomber targeted the base in an explosives-filled vehicle that slipped onto the compound near where coalition troops dine. He said in a statement that after the blast, other insurgents entered the compound on foot and opened fire.

"They had suicide vests, rocket-propelled grenades, heavy machine guns and hand grenades," Mujahid said. Mujahid claimed that an airplane on an airstrip at the base was destroyed and that "tens" of foreign forces were killed and wounded. The Taliban often exaggerate the number of casualties caused by their attacks. NATO said no airplane was destroyed during the attack. Forward Operating Base Salerno has a large Soviet-built airfield.

It is near Camp Chapman, where seven CIA employees were killed in a suicide attack in December 2009. Salerno and its outlying fire bases have been the focus of repeated militant suicide, artillery and sniper attacks over the past several years. One of the most brazen of the war occurred in August, 2008, when about 100 Taliban fighters broke through the perimeter of the base.

After a two-hour fire fight, helicopter gunships forced the guerrillas to retreat. On May 19, a suicide bomber blew himself up at a police checkpoint in Ali Sher district of Khost province, killing 13 people – 10 civilians, two Afghan policemen and an Afghan border police officer.

''Australia taking on the leadership now … puts us in a better position to manage the transition process,'' Mr Smith said.

He said the security situation in the province had improved substantially over the past two years.

During the past month, General Hurley said, a small team had been conducting an audit of equipment to determine what will come home and what will stay in Oruzgan.

The Defence Force chief, General David Hurley, said the change would make it easier to transfer responsibility to Afghan forces and prepare the withdrawal of Australian troops and equipment over the next 12 to 18 months.

''What this decision does is put us in the driving seat to control the interaction with those processes over the next year or so,'' General Hurley said. ''This is a major operational phase.

''For our forces outside the wire in Oruzgan it will make no difference at all.''

So in a month the Ozzies will then transfer their Leadership role to the Afghans after they just got their Leadership role from the USSA this week.

Which just took over from the Dutch who just left last week.....

I got that right?......90+% of Amerika is clueless as to the SNAFU in the Afghans.

Just imagine that Morgan Stanley is our Domestic Equivalent and that the Facebook fiasco is Camp Salerno.

You'll be right up to speed.....8D

The Afghan president, Hamid Karzai, announced on May 13 that the province would begin the transition to Afghan-led security responsibility in the middle of this year.

There is, as usual, no indication that these media outlets have any idea whatsoever about who was killed in these strikes. All they know is that "officials" (whether American or Pakistani) told them that they were "militants," so they blindly repeat that as fact. They "report" this not only without having the slightest idea whether it’s true, but worse, with the full knowledge that the word "militant" is being aggressively distorted by deceitful U.S. government propaganda that defines the term to mean: any "military-age males" whom we kill (the use of the phrase "suspected militants" in the body of the article suffers the same infirmity).

How is it possible to have any informed democratic debate over a policy about which the U.S. media relentlessly propagandizes this way?

Thursday, May 31, 2012 Assange and the crooked British judges

"Julian Assange loses extradition case – live coverage" This is completely fucking outrageous, and everybody should be up in arms.

First, the majority of the court substituted its own argument for those made by the prosecutor - proving that they rejected all the prosecutor's arguments for extradition - an argument that was never argued in court, thus depriving Assange any chance to refute it. Secondly, they then tried a dirty trick by attempting to hide this substituted argument from Assange's counsel until it was too late.

They knew their methods of railroading Assange were dirty, and it was only the diligence of Assange's lawyer that brought this atrocity into the open in time, forcing the judges to give Assange another kick at the can. These judges of the majority are obviously utterly corrupt, and the only chance for justice in this matter will be in Strasbourg.

Looking forward to finding out that the SCOTUS does the same......;}
