Twerking it

The repeated collective twerking of the American public, first by a genocidal maniac and now by a genocidal nun speaks volume of their “audacity for hope,” and of the American people’s worsening taste in twerking partners. Was Miley really that bad? Meanwhile, a genocide is being ignored as US and Western politicians cower in their respective ideological corners, and public relation firms all over the world get busy sexing up and rehabilitating the image of its perpetrators. And a leaderless world rushes unquestioningly towards the abyss.

Zakaria: The Saudis Are Mad? Tough!

Zakaria: The Saudis Are Mad? Tough! – TIME.

Every criticism of Saudi foreign policy that Zakaria makes in this piece is correct, but there are few convenient lies of omission all of which pertain to America being a main partner, enabler and a beneficiary of Saudi Wahhabi adventurism. So, basically Zakaria is simply airing some dirty laundry in what promises to be a messy divorce. But to say that there will no strategic implications to this divorce is to ignore the very facts Zakaria marshaled in order to justify it, namely that Saudi, like Iran, America’s new paramour, sponsors global terror networks, and history tells us that she tends to be quite vindictive. Now, and as it courts another Middle Eastern vixen, the US may only see the negative side of Saudi terror, as it hopes to benefit from the Iranian one. Some would say this is good for the US, and is indeed the stuff of real-politick. But the times, they are a-changing, and when this thing backfires, as it always does, I doubt the aftermath will be as containable as the Brat Pack of America’s New Isolationism seem to think.

Syria footage sheds light on Iran’s involvement

BBC News – Syria footage sheds light on Iran’s involvement.

The story of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard officer, Ismail Haidari, first reported by a German television station, is now retold and completed by BBC. It highlights the extant of Iran’s involvement in Syria. Considering US silence on this matter, and its current rapprochement with the Mulla regime, it seems clear now that the Obama Administration is offering Syria to Iran in exchange for her cooperation on her nuclear program, or, more likely, a convincing enough show of cooperation, so that President Obama can claim another one of his make-believe victories. After all, as a make-believe president, that’s the best that he could do.
