Oil for White People! Woohoo, Dead Iraqi Children
Now!
By Lloyd Hart
It seems that the corporate press cabal of CNN, NBC, ABC, CBS, Regime
controlled
NPR and just about every major newspaper in America sets policy for
press coverage
week to week. The first week of war the corporate press played bad
cop with the
Bush regime looking like they couldn't fight a war in a wet paper bag
let alone
Iraq and then in the second week of the war, good cop. In the second
week the
corporate press morphed into the pro war zealot cheerleaders the Bush
regime could
only have dreamed of when they originally rolled out this diseased
product. But a
consistent policy through the entire period at all the American networks
and major
papers from the beginning of this war is that there will be no visual
material
illustrating any civilian casualties. The dead would be completely
omitted and
wounded civilians would only be shown in a very limited way in the
recovery stage
in the sterility of a hospital ward or in the care of a U.S. soldier.
I leafed
through the weekly's, Time magazine, U.S. News, and Newsweek and literally
only
found one off in the distance picture of a civilian casualty with a
U.S. soldiers
standing over the body as if it were going to blow up and one picture
of a dead
Iraqi soldier as well as one picture of one dead U.S. Marine whose
body was
covered by a tarp. No messy war going on in Iraq, that's for sure.
The overall
thrust of every corporate media outlet this last week focused on supporting
our
troops regardless their crimes against humanity with MSNBC posting
photographs of
soldiers sent in by their families and talking about liberation of
the Iraqi
people as if absolutely no one in America knew or could transcend the
truth of
what is really happening. And of course with a military invasion of
every
corporate media outlet with so-called retired officers eating up all
the airtime
and the cult of personality bimbo journalism that has swept across
America like
locust on crops, the only place the public actually has to go to get
some
semblance of objectivity in reporting on this war, is the Internet.
After working my ass off all week scanning the Internet for legitimate
photographs
of Iraqi civilian casualties I was able to put together reasonable
catalog on my
website http://dadapop.com which I
try to update every day. But the fact still
remains that with the American corporate media deciding what the American
public
can and cannot handle in terms of images coming off the battlefield,
the rest of
the world outside the United States seems to think it's public is mature
enough to
handle the site of dead Iraqi children. I know for a fact that every
last one of
the corporate media outlets in America have been flooded with very
angry
complaints from their viewers for the lack of objectivity and the general
Rah Rah
Sis Boom Bah attitude. But after the first Gulf War just as the smart
bombs got
smarter the boys at the Pentagon somehow convinced the American corporate
media to
slip between the sheets and go down on the generals.
While watching the Sunday talk shows this week I caught Wolfowitz tap
dancing
around the question of the U.N.'s role in post War Iraq, stumbling
over the Bush
regime's scripted line that the U.N. "Has a role to play in Iraq" omitting
the key
word "central". In other words coming from Condy Rice, Colon Powell
and Donald
Rumsfeld that there is no role for the U.N. other than to be America's
lackey and
that is, to distribute to some food, water and medicine and only because
the
Pentagon has proved to be completely incompetent in that area. All
post war
reconstruction of Iraq will be administered by the men and the few
women and the
corporation's most closely associated with this theft of election 2000,
period.
Hell, I wouldn't be to surprised if Iraq turned out to be the very
thing that
could bring Enron out of bankruptcy. Wolfowitz was also put on the
spot and made
to defend the selection of Dr. Ahmed Chalabi, the exiled head of the
Iraqi
political opposition to represent the Iraqi people in the interim military
government the U.S. is already setting up in Iraq. Chalabi apparently
burned whole
bunch of depositors in his Jordanian bank and split to avoid the old
head on the
pike scene turning up again in the Iraqi opposition and then in northern
Iraq and
now installed in Nassireya in southern Iraq with a group of thugs,
I mean troops
that he has been training in northern Iraq. Just by geographic proximity
alone it
seems that the Prince of gray area in the White House has made his
selection as to
who is going to be the top Iraqi dog on U.S. occupation leash. And
of course it
has been reported by the BBC that Chalabi and the rest of the U.S.
hand-picked
Iraqi opposition in exile plans to privatize the Iraqi oil patch breaking
up the
state run oil monopoly allowing the U.S. oil monopoly to take complete
control of
the global price of oil monopoly. Gee wiz, I would have never guessed.

OK, let's talk about weapons of mass destruction. I could care less
how many
weapons of mass destruction they find in Iraq. For the simple fact
is, it is quite
reasonable for any Arab state to seek detente with the psychotic, genocidal,
Palestinian murdering Zionists in Israel who possess 300 nuclear weapons
of mass
destruction. To say that the Arab states don't have a right to possess
nuclear-weapons is to say that the Arab states learned nothing from
the Cold War.
Which was all about the United States and the Soviet Union developing
so many
weapons of mass destruction (causing the pollution of the entire USSR
and the
United States with cancer causing agents) that they realized that all
scenarios
lead to mutually assured destruction and that there was only one way
out and that
was to sit down and talk. If the Israelis do not give up their nuclear-weapons
the
United States of America will never shake the title of imperialist
hypocrite in
the Arab world as well as in the entire world. And of course, that
leads to the
fact that the U.S. itself since George Bush came to office has backed
out of every
biological, chemical and nuclear-weapons treaty with the rest of the
world. United
States stockpiles of biological, chemical and nuclear weapons dwarf
any other
stockpiles as a whole in the rest of the entire world and the U.S.
is not
destroying them. In fact, backing out of the ABM treaty with the former
Soviet
Union and negotiating a deal where the U.S. can store their nuclear
warheads
intact is clearly a violation of the spirit of the global agreement
on the non
proliferation of nuclear-weapons. And of course the facts around the
discovery of
these sarin and mustard gas warheads just outside Baghdad are dubious
considering
that two U.S. military transport planes landed at the Baghdad airport,
the area of
discovery, beginning days before the discovery of these WMBs. After
all the Bush
regime has been caught politically and ethnically cleansing the voter
lists in
America in order to win elections, a high crime and misdemeanor. And
also
considering that America law enforcement regularly plants evidence
on suspects,
the Rampart division of the Los Angeles Police Department grotesque
case in point.
Another stark fact is that it turns out that Colon Powell was the very
first
officer at ICOR command center in Vietnam to see the evidence of the
My Lai
Massacre which he then proceeded to suppress which made his carreer
what it is
today. So I wouldn't put it past the Bush regime to plant evidence.
Regardless of
the origins of the weapons of mass destruction found by the hundred
and first
Airborne the fact still remains that the Iraqis did not use weapons
of mass
destruction against U.S. forces, Israel or anyone else at any time
for that matter
without U.S. government approval. And there still is no U.N. Security
Council
resolution authorizing this illegal war, so get a grip you crazy white
people no
matter what you dance in front of our eyes or how many Oreo cookies
you put up as
military spokespeople, just the fact that you went ahead with the invasion
side
stepping International Law, the UN Security Council and the UN General
Assembly is
all proof people need that you're crazy white people running out of
oil.
So just as all crazy white people that preceded this latest adventure
into the
heart of Arabia, Alexander the Great, the Romans, the French, the British,
the
Italians etc. etc.. The crazy white people from America are going to
attempt to
rule over a people that you might be able sell clothes, hair cuts and
cars to but
to use as hegemonic slaves for greater plans of ruling the world through
controlling the strategic oil supply and therefore controlling the
Global Economy?
Well you really do have to be a crazy white person to pull it off.
The fact is,
the brutality that it will take to keep the Iraqi people and the entire
Arabian
Street at bay while we steal their oil, the one thing that finally
got the Crazy
White Christians to sit down at the table and talk after centuries
of lead
poisoned Christian adventures into the Holy Land, will be biblical.
But I guess
that is just what happens when crazy white people cut themselves off
from their
cultural mother ship in Europe and continue to try and stick it to
the great
cultural breast they were forced to flee because fixing the problems
in Europe was
a great deal harder than killing 30 million Native Americans. After
all they were
savages and therefore not protected by God. Only in America could a
religion be
created and written that states clearly in they're text that people
with dark skin
have fallen from the grace of God and must be shepherded back to God
upon which
time as they have accepted God back into their life, their skin will
turn back to
its original white color. I speak of the Mormons of course and there
ain't no
crazier white people shit then that.
Well actually I'm wrong. There is a crazier idea emanating from America's
shores
and that would be Tim Lahaye's crazy white man's interpretation of
the Book of
revelations in a series of books called "Left Behind" which you can
find at the
million dollar web site http://leftbehind.com . Tim Lahaye is a co-founder
of
Jerry Falwell's Moral Majority and with Pat Robertson and Billy Graham
they might
as well make up the four horsemen of the apocalypse. Together these
four men
represent the very base and controlling interest in the Republican
Party in the
United States of America and therefore they have George W. Bush's ear.
With the
four horsemen pumping their parishioners with the myth and main premise
of the
Left Behind series, that the Dome of the Rock and the Al-Aqsa Mosque
among the
holiest sites in Islam must be destroyed and the third Jewish temple
built in
order to draw Jesus down from heaven. Upon Jesus's arrival on the earth
all the
Jews will be informed that they must convert to Christianity or be
destroyed by
the convenient little Antichrist they have waiting in the wings ready
to pounce on
those stubborn Jews. Could it be some one is planning another Jewish
Holocaust?
What has all this crazy white man stuff got to do with the war in Iraq
you ask?
Well, according to these crazy white horsemen of the apocalypse the
Antichrist is
supposed to come from within Islam and if you hang out long enough
with these
crazy white men you'll find out that their number one focus these days
is the
destruction of the entire religion of Islam. In fact, the crazy white
people send
stealth converters into Islam in attempt to destroy the religion from
within cause
you can't destroy the Dome of the Rock and the Al-Aqsa Mosque if that
pesky
religion Islam is still hanging around. If you remember those young
women that the
Taliban arrested and then later who got to meet George W. Bush at the
White House,
well they were stealth converters sponsored by Islam busters associated
with the
Bob Jones University in South Carolina.
Now you might think that Tim Lahaye and Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson
and Billy
Graham are fringe wack jobs, they are, but they also represent millions
and
millions of people in America that organize and vote Republican with
the Holy zeal
of Christian soldiers invading of the Holy Land. The Left Behind series
of books
alone have sold over 51 million copies. Couple all that zealotry with
the wealth
and power of the conservative elites, the so-called fiscal conservatives
and their
minions within their corporate culture, backed up by the Republican
controlled
U.S. military and you've got the makings of a shit storm of the likes
we haven't
seen and since George W. Bush's grandfather Prescott Bush, Henry Ford,
Thomas
Watson and IBM and basically all conservative elite'sin America backed
Hitler. So
hold on to your socks kiddies it looks like we're in for another American
nightmare, an attempt at global domination.
Oh and by the way, be sure to take your vitamins, homeopathic remedies
and Chinese
herbs and don't snivel in public cause George W. Bush just gave the
authorities
the power to arrest anyone even slightly suspected of SARS, you don't
even have to
have symptoms for them to stick you in the ward with a real SARS patients
much the
same way they did when the plague hit Europe before they learned to
diagnose the
sick from the healthy. Meaning that entire families and communities
can be
arrested and quarantined with the only thing to save you and your family
members
from dying of SARS is the totally ineffective immune system destroying
toxic
Pharmaceuticals of Western medicine. I find it very interesting that
the power of
Bush's executive order to isolate SARS suspects occurred only after
a 110 deaths
not one of them occurring in the United States and considering the
flu season
takes down thousands more than that globally every winter. And I don't
see Bush
racing by executive order to contain the spread of the Ebola outbreak
or for that
matter the AIDS plague in Africa. Shit, maybe I'm talking too soon.
But I guess I shouldn't be so naive as to expect universal democracy,
peace and
justice when it comes to the crazy white people but I do have a suggestion.
All
crazy white people in America, instead of continuing this crazy unconscious
act of
yearning to be weaned by pigging out on cow's milk all the time should
head
straight back to Europe and find some human breast milk gestating French,
German
and Russian momas and get themselves properly breast fed and weaned.
Oil for White People! Woohoo, Dead Iraqi Children Now!
