see, i don't think china is okay with unifying the koreas

[click image]

.

I just think they were saying that to our diplomats to fend off pressure to do anything about North Korea, while keeping us relaxed about our relations. Now we're down doing war games with Japan. That can't be making them very happy either.
China's foreign ministry has said that military threats could not resolve continuing tensions on the Korean peninsula.

The statement by Jiang Yu, the foreign ministry spokeswoman, comes after Admiral Mike Mullen, the chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff, criticised China on Thursday for enabling its ally North Korea's "reckless behaviour".

Jiang Yu told news conference that she questioned what Mullen had done for "peace and stability in the region," calling his remarks on China's support for North Korea an "accusation".
I've heard we're trying to get it together to have Japan and South Korea coördinate activities. I'm very skeptical about this, but Farrell was just mentioning about the "tremendous change" taking place in Japan over the past year and a half, my insights into their thing against Korea are antiquated, so maybe there's less resistance to that than I thought at first, but, basically, it's pretty clear that the United States—I'm trying to break my habit of referring to that entity as "we" or "us" or "our" because whatever it is, it ain't that!—is being plenty pushy with our bankster-run military.

There were some squawks from certain quadrants a few weeks ago that this, no kidding, is all headed directly toward WWIII, but they seem to have piped down now that they have the accounting from the Fed to flip over and the whole world has Assange to flip over. Genghis Ponzi Yoo, I hear, is off on a campaign to stump for his capitulation on taxes and large numbers of people are dissing him hard at last. Point of bringing this up is simply to point out, once again, in case you need to hear it again:

HE'S NOT IN CHARGE. EXPERT FASCISTS ARE.

Just as an aside, I think the value of seeing this list outweighs by far any danger in the BOGUS GWOT.

if at first you don't succeed, drum louder

Sheesh.

I'm pretty sure China ain't letting North Korea make another move... no matter WHAT the provocation because if they force China to have to take South Korea, there ain't gonna be no North Korea left standing... or South. Fwoosh, seventy-five million people vapor. Immediately. I am living testimony that things ain't the same as they were in 1953... OR in 2009.*

Nope. Far better they keep choking us to death financially than let us start WWIII.

Everybody in their right mind knows that we might start it, but we aren't going to finish it. Nobody prosecuting this action intends any such a thing as a country, a people, coming out on top. At best, the Chinese and the Russians could go on to crow about stopping the Great American Menace, get fat and sing about killing fascists....**

* Al Jazeera, and others, are making much of this cable, implying it actually means China is happy to let Korea reunify, and that would seem lucid, on its face, but most Westerners have no idea that nothing about China, or Asia for that matter, should be taken at face value. They are never direct when indirect works so much better. And you should worry when they effusively praise your virtues. North Korea staying a focus for U.S. troops stationed in South Korea suits China extremely well. They won't give that up easily. Maybe they would assess any possible advantage to letting it go in the short term if they are assured we cannot sustain any menace there, but, well, I do not think they are in a mood to put up with our perfidies much longer. There's nothing left to gain from it.

** I could be completely naive and China's gangsters are as anxious to shave a few billion off the global population as our gangsters are, but... well, I don't think they want to do it that way. It appears to me they prefer birth control to wholesale slaughter. Damn odd how those totalitarians end up being more humane than us democrats, ain't it?

.

Oh. Well. Now. THIS IS PSYCHEDELIC. The chances of "a strong ROK-Japan relationship" ever developing are NIL. Nothing in all Japan is reviled more thoroughly than a Korean. Legendary for their racism, in general, NONE of it is as severe as it is toward Koreans. Even someone unfortunate enough to be half-Korean and never having set foot in either Korea—even in a Zen monastery, where things like racism are outright NOT DONE—catches it mercilessly from the Japanese. OMG!

No wonder our diplomats are such idiots! If they're getting this kind of treatment day-in and day-out, they cannot help but stay completely out of touch with reality.

I mean, no, really, this business about never being direct or genuine—at least not with mere acquaintances or in political situations—and I even suspect half the time not really with each other either—has driven me nuts from people all my life. Asians and Middle Easterners find me entertaining as hell. I hate it about them, but I know it comes from millennia of cultural conditioning and so have had to learn to endure it where I don't have the ability to get in there and sock them in the teeth over it. My decades of studying the ancients has helped immeasurably, but, dudes, please, believe me when I tell you, This Is Psychedelic.

Babes in the woods, our diplomats to the Chinese.

They won't ever know what hit them.

.

It occurs to me, unbelievable as it might seem, that while I know about the SCO, never invited and not allowed even to audit meetings, maybe our diplomats don't know about it... or didn't when these cables flew out of their offices.

Maybe now that Russia and China aren't using the dollar on each other anymore they're starting to get the picture.

This is making me so sick:
With North Korea promising retaliation of its own, the US looks poised to further escalate the tensions in the region with the addition of an aircraft carrier. The US retains some 28,000 troops along the border between the two nations and President Obama has promised to cooperate in whatever retaliation South Korean President Lee Myung-bak sees fit.
Did anyone ever check to see if he was any good at being a community organizer?

.

And this is just flat out humiliating. Maybe I'm completely deluded, but I feel sure that our entire legislative branch would have been lined up and shot for this sort of thing a hunnert years ago....

not unrelated

The piece at the image link was posted immediately after THIS ONE... and I'm telling you, they are not unrelated. I don't understand why people are so willing to just sit back and let our "leaders" get us into this shit. I just don't. Maybe just too many of us too inhibited to don the tinfoil suits to combat the pacification waves, but this is seriously not funny for us, man. It isn't like WWII, when nobody had weapons capable of inflicting damage here, but the sheep don't seem to be getting that idea.

Tangential, but also probably not unrelated:
Japan spots Chinese vessels near disputed islands: report
2 hrs 30 mins ago

TOKYO (Reuters) – The Japanese coast guard has spotted two Chinese vessels attempting on Sunday to enter waters near islands in the East China Sea that are disputed by the two countries, Kyodo News reported.

Two Chinese fishing patrol ships were sighted around 7:45 a.m. on Sunday (6:45 p.m. EST on Saturday) repeatedly trying to enter waters 44 kilometers off a group of islands known as Senkaku in Japan and Diaoyu in China, Kyodo reported, citing the Japanese coast guard.

Relations between Asia's two biggest economies soured in September after Japan detained a Chinese skipper whose fishing boat collided with Japanese patrol vessels off the disputed islands, which are near potentially rich maritime gas reserves. He was later released.

Expats recalled as North Korea prepares for war
By Shaun Walker in Moscow
Saturday, 27 November 2010

A mass exodus of North Korean workers from the Far East of Russia is under way, according to reports coming out of the region. As the two Koreas edged towards the brink of war this week, it appears that the workers in Russia have been called back to aid potential military operations.

Vladnews agency, based in Vladivostok, reported that North Korean workers had left the town of Nakhodka en masse shortly after the escalation of tension on the Korean peninsula earlier this week. "Traders have left the kiosks and markets, workers have abandoned building sites, and North Korean secret service employees working in the region have joined them and left," the agency reported.

Russia's migration service said that there were over 20,000 North Koreans in Russia at the beginning of 2010, of which the vast majority worked in construction. The workers are usually chaperoned by agents from Kim Jong-il's security services and have little contact with the world around them. Defectors have suggested that the labourers work 13-hour days and that most of their pay is sent back to the government in Pyongyang. Hundreds of workers have fled the harsh conditions and live in hiding in Russia, constantly in fear of being deported back to North Korea.

"North Korea's government sends thousands of its citizens to Russia to earn money, most of which is funnelled through government accounts," says Simon Ostrovsky, a journalist who discovered secret North Korean logging camps in the northern Siberian taiga. "Workers are often sent to remote locations for years at a time to work long hours and get as little as three days off per year." Now it appears that some kind of centralised order has been given for the workers to return home.

Russia's Pacific port of Vladivostok is thousands of miles and seven time zones from Moscow, but only around 100 miles from the country's heavily controlled border with North Korea. In 1996, a diplomat from the South Korean consulate in the city was murdered with a poisoned pencil, in what was widely believed to be a hit carried out by the North's secret agents. There are even two North Korean restaurants in the city. It is not known how many of the workers in other Russian towns have been called back to their homeland this week, or whether the exodus is permanent or temporary.
I am appalled and ashamed. I mean, there's no doubt in my mind we started this.

I could not face pitching a hissy about the bullcrap on the AP and numerous groupthink outlets across the tubes "reporting" how docile everyone was at the airports yesterday, and still can't. But would like you to see at least the counter-propaganda so you don't lose heart from that filthy blather.
TSA turns off naked body scanners to avoid opt-out day protests
by Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, NaturalNews Editor
24 November 2010

(NaturalNews) — Anticipating a nationwide grassroots surge of protests against naked body scanners and aggressive pat-downs, the TSA simply turned off its naked body scanners on Wednesday and let air travelers walk right through security checkpoints without being X-rayed or molested.

All across the country, air travelers are reporting that the TSA simply deactivated the naked body scanners and let people go right through without a scan. "Backscatter scanners are off. No scan. No patdown." reported a traveler from the Seattle airport. "Backscatter machines aren't being used at LAX," reported another traveler. "They're all roped off."

Much the same story is being reported all across the country.

The TSA is desperate to avoid protests

Shutting down the "National Opt-Out Day" by turning off the machines is the only logical move for the TSA, of course: The agency needed a way to defuse the growing grassroots resistance to its criminal violations of Americans' Fourth Amendment rights. So instead of facing what was sure to be widespread protest, the agency simply decided to turn off the machines for a day.

This action tells us all sorts of fascinating things about the TSA and its fabricated security excuses. Perhaps most importantly, it proves that the naked body scanners are not needed for air travel security in the first place. When it wants to, the TSA can just turn the machines off and resort to baggage X-rays and metal detectors. That's worked for years, and it apparently worked today, too.

And yet, up until today, the TSA has
insisted that the naked body scanners are absolutely essential to detecting hidden bombs, and that "travelers won't be safe" unless they use the naked body scanners. So all of a sudden today it's okay for the TSA to put air travelers at risk of being blown up?

The TSA can't have it both ways. Either the naked body scanners are vital for air security and they need to be running 24/7 to keep everybody safe, or they're just another security con game being played out for the financial benefit of Chertoff and others who profit from the sale of such machines.

How can the TSA — with a straight face — say that naked body scanners are vital for air security but not on the busiest air travel day of the year?

As you can see, there are some serious holes in the TSA's mythology, and interestingly, this National Opt-Out Day indirectly exposed them by getting the TSA to turn off the naked body scanners. This is effectively an admission that they aren't important to air security.

Trying to avoid any challenge to its power

This action by the TSA also shows that the TSA is desperately trying to avoid being publicly embarrassed by the national-opt-out day protests. Lots of local and national news film crews were out at the airports today, hoping to catch something interesting on camera. But by turning off the naked body scanners, the TSA was able to stage a "calm looking" day at the airport.

As soon as the TV cameras leave, however, they can turn those machines right back on and start molesting people once again. This is classic behavior of police state tyrants: They present a calm, professional image to the media, but once the cameras leave, all of a sudden their hands are back down in your pants.

I predict the TSA will have the machines turned right back on by Friday, and more reports of sexual molestation and inappropriate pat-downs will continue to emerge.

Many people just skipped the airports altogether

The other big travel news today was that lots of travelers decided to simply skip the airports altogether. NaturalNews received emails from several travelers who described major U.S. airports as "nearly empty."

Meanwhile, traffic was terrible on the freeways. The Massachusetts Turnpike played host to a 30-mile traffic jam today.

A new Zogby poll indicates that 43% of the American public will seek alternatives to flying due to the TSA's aggressive pat-downs and naked body scanners. That's going to add up to a huge financial hit for the air travel industry in the months ahead. The TSA could end up destroying much of the air travel industry altogether!

Thank you to all who participated in the National Opt Out Day. In getting the TSA to turn off its naked body scanners, we exposed the TSA's "big lie" about air travel safety.

Have a Happy Thanksgiving and travel safely, no matter what method of transportation you choose.

kids in candy stores

We gotta fight the kids in candy stores aspect of all these gizmos and special arts they're giving the cops across the globe. I know these fellows won't be nearly as gleeful about displaying their talents when they get to do it for real, but, clearly now, since we've seen the avidity with which the fun stuff is applied by troops who know they're the bad guys and their victims are innocent but won't ever admit it, it's not going to be easy talking them out of their candy stores. They're going to have to see awfully big showings by their fellows before they will have the courage or the selflessness to resist their masters, and all that power.

I know one thing for sure:
Venezuela threatens oil cut to US
SUNDAY, JULY 25, 2010 | 23:51 MECCA TIME, 20:51 GMT

Hugo Chavez, Venezuela's president, has threatened to cut off oil exports to the United States if US-allied Colombia launches a military attack against his country.

"If there was any armed aggression against Venezuela from Colombian territory or from anywhere else, promoted by the Yankee empire, we would suspend oil shipments to the United States even if we have to eat stones here," Chavez said on Sunday.

He added that he had cancelled a trip to Cuba because he had intelligence revealing that "the possibility of an armed aggression against Venezuelan territory from Colombia" was higher than it has been "in 100 years".

Chavez, a leftist and vocal critic of the United States, broke off diplomatic relations with Colombia last week over claims by the outgoing Colombian President Alvaro Uribe, a close US ally, that his country harbours Colombian rebels.


'Bogus show'

Uribe had said that top commanders of the rebel Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, or Farc, have taken refuge in Venezuela and were launching attacks against Colombian troops.

The Colombian government had presented photos, videos and maps of what it said were Colombian rebel camps inside Venezuela to the Organisation of American States.

Chavez has dismissed the accusations as a bogus show intended to smear his government and has said that Uribe could be trying to lay the groundwork for an armed conflict with Venezuela.

The Colombian government denies seeking a conflict and says it went to OAS with its evidence about the rebels last week because Chavez's government had not taken steps to address the situation.

The United States threw its support behind its key ally Colombia, calling Chavez's decision to sever diplomatic relations and put border troops on alert "a petulant response" to Bogota's accusations.
You have to be the stupidest or the most courageous person around to be the president of any Latin American country. I'm going with dirt stupid for Uribe and most courageous for Chávez... a damn hero. Too bad we have one of the evil step-sisters posing as Cinderella for ours.

This does not bode well. It might be our next excuse for not attacking Iran. I don't care about the military drills in Korea. We're amassing ships in Costa Rica. They can be through the Panama Canal and on top of Venezuela in a heartbeat.

The Chinese have openly let it be known they see through us, and too many pinheads think war is the only thing that reverses the financial wreckage they purposefully wrecked. It KILLS millions and it makes TRILLIONS for trillionaires.

So. Wake up.
