Breaking News. I am seeing Speaker of the House Rep. Paul Ryan posturing and positioning for a presidential possibility. I am conjecturing that he is likely to be declared nominee at the contested GOP convention. Today he delivered an excellent speech on the subject of "The State of American Politics". I think Paul Ryan will likely be the GOP 2016 Presidential nominee as the adults in the GOP will not allow our country to be "led" by any of the current contestants. I just don't see it happening.
In related Presidential General Election developments, Secretary Clinton delivers a prepared speech at Stanford on counterterrorism and homeland security. While she is not the most skilled speaker the speech was well written, sane and balanced. While she didn't address the reality of how the world has come to have terrorism as such a prescient and pressing concern, she did present a rational approach to move forward from here.
No candidate has yet spoken to the role played by the powerful nation states in participating in terror and thereby provoking and promoting the horrible murder of innocents we see all too often. But maybe that time is being brought to us now. After all, Hilary has already long admitted that the US created the post modern terror organizations by arming the resistance to the Soviet Unions invasion of Afghanistan.

Hey folks take a look at this court testimony around the *first* election of GW... remember?? ... just before 9/11 ...
... Why has this testimony not made national news and been under major media scrutiny or had the media launch a real investigation?
Programmer under oath admits computers rig elections.

Software programmer says US elections are rigged and that US Representatives tried to pay him to rig their election vote counts.
Thankyou to TheTruthPusher

In the middle of it all while everything was everything, I stopped and stood still while still waters ran deeper through my soul than ever. I knew right away that there was nothing left for me to do but realize myself into existence for yet another roll around the wheel. This was even though my prior service of cycles had carried me to selflessness worthy of the blessed lotus flower of release into the bliss of the bosom of the infinite - to be selfless forever selfless but one with the one of all. ... an urgent sense of an appointment not yet kept, a visit remaining to be paid, a soul in need of a caring touch...swept over and through and within me and in the next moment I was realizing ... myself ... yet once again. My inner voice, the voice of God within, was always there, even as an infant. I knew of the nature of the universe while in diapers. My mind was a simmering reflection of the real world with a startling clarity of integration with the whole of all things. As the child incarnate of the spiritual being that I am, I was complete, pure and luminous. peAce is the way... topbop!
For one swallow does not make a summer, nor does one day; and so too one day, or a short time, does not make a man blessed and happy.
On the notion of the analysis of the impact of what has transpired in several of the middle-east Arab countries on the Palestine - Israel peace process, one said that truth and consistency will be required of the USA to avoid the facts being known about the decades of American complicity with the dictators, and then quipped. "If the United States does not admit that Israel is an occupying power in Gaza and the West Bank, there will be no peace, you will have a process without peace. Just like the Roadmap was a Road with no Map."
Our planet is controlled by a corrupt Über-class that conducts it's day to day business via a worldwide scheme perpetrated through a series of bribes, kickbacks, payoffs, favors and "gifts" exchanged between themselves. Meanwhile, they grind away at humanity with a sickening procession of "conflicts" they use to propel their military-industrial-political financial Juggernaut forward. Huge weapons contracts are negotiated with dictators, despots, autocrats and tyrants with the off-shore numbered bank accounts of "presidents", "legislators", "politicians", "diplomats", "leaders", "envoys" and "emissaries" ticking ever higher with each fighter jet, bomb, missile or anti-personnel mine shipment to Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Israel and you-name-where-else. Lavish vacations, jewelry and assorted riches beyond what most average citizens can even imagine are handed about as tokens of appreciation for the facilitation of the graft and corrupt deals. Throw into the mix the so-called leaders of the "free world" casually looking the other way while their dictatorial partners in these crimes do whatever they want to their own people, using the very military infrastructure they have been provided with through mind-numbing "military aid packages" to the tune of billions of dollars. ... taxpayer dollars!!! They oppress non-violent protesters, beating, imprisoning and yes even killing them to silence their cries that while the dictators line their pockets and ride high, the populace subsists in abject poverty or worse. They subject their citizenry to unspeakable hardship and deny them their own freedom in determining the course of their own lives. They fail to support the individuals rights to pursue economic entrepreneurship if they are not properly connected or pay the appropriate "fees". The recent popular uprisings spreading across the middle east is directly the result of the people in Tunisia, Egypt, Libya, Bahrain ... finally getting access to information that sheds the disinfectant of the light of day on this entire stinking mess.
All the while the censored and ghost-written "media" keep us properly misinformed of the reality in which we exist ... and the FBI, CIA and the rest protect the criminals and attack the whistle-blowers seizing their computers at gun-point, labeling them, yes, you guessed it, "terrorists"!!!
Dear reader, prepare yourself for there is a change in the wind. Finally the truth about what has been going on for decades is beginning to emerge. Not as a single uncovered case but vast network exposing hundreds of thousands of documented examples. This is not speculation but a frightening image of this disgusting and sad state of affairs backed up by hard evidence. Think wikileaks was newsworthy? There is a new kid on the block and they appear poised to tear the roof off this sucker!!!
Are you angry? ... at least disturbed? Watch this video where a certain "leader" shows his impunity and makes a pass to revisit the scene of one of the largest crimes in history when the Air Force One backup plane buzzes skyscrapers in Manhattan. By the way, not that he has not been part of the "business as usual" program, Obama was not the "leader" on board who ordered this flight. The details of what actually was going on here have not been declassified....

"President McKinley told the American people that the USS Maine had been sunk in Havana Harbor by a Spanish mine. The American people, outraged by this apparent unprovoked attack, supported the Spanish American War. The Captain of the USS Maine had insisted the ship was sunk by a coal bin explosion, investigations after the war proved that such had indeed been the case. There had been no mine."
"All war is based on deception."
~ Sun Tzu, The Art of War
In our own time we have the example of 9/11 and the Iraq and Afghanistan wars...
"I suggest we need higher fidelity to reality in our public and private discourse. Most of the ill that is done in the world is centered around some lie or system of lies. Speaking of "FREEDOM", as we seem to so often do here in America, somewhere I read that the truth shall set you free."

America, are you proud that these acts have been committed in your name? Will this ever change? If so, please tell me how?
BBC News says "Nearly 60 people have been killed in a series of attacks by US drones in the past 24 hours in Pakistan's Khyber tribal district, officials say."
What ? Why ? No ? Yes? What do you think America!?!?!
Why is U.S. foreign policy to take lethal actions, on the soil of another sovereign nation, and "not acknowledge" it?
World News Blog reports that "... Two British nationals, reportedly fighting with al-Qaeda militants, have been killed in the tribal region of Pakistan, near the Afghan border. Sources in both the Pakistan Taliban and the Pakistan military have told Channel 4 News that the two men were killed in a CIA drone strike five days ago." topbop! says that is warfare waged by airborne remote controlled robot proxy. ... so -- welcome to the world manifesting bizarre side-effects of decisions allowed by a fearful and deliberately mislead population double-spoken into confusion and raised to cling to the in place and in power governing system dogmatically from the cradle. Oh and by the way our decision on this airborne remote controlled robot proxy warfare is actually being made for us, in secret from us, even though it is clear that we are doing this? ... our warlike tendencies are still like we imagine the prehistoric man. Remember the opening scene of Stanley Kubrick classic 2001 A Space Odyssey?
Watch this and consider the contrast to the experience of those inside the pickup.
so then to the question: " ... will warfare waged by airborne remote controlled robot proxy legitimize the shift to a detached cold calculating dispatch of human lives on the other side of the planet at the push of a button ? ... " what say ye America?
peAce... don't you think the time has long since arrive to try it as an option?

AP Reports that "Two American missile attacks killed 15 people Friday in a region in northwest Pakistan." They go on to say "U.S. officials do not acknowledge firing the missiles, much less comment on who they are targeting." Even Al-Qaeda claims responsibility for their attacks. Why is U.S. foreign policy to take lethal actions, on the soil of another sovereign nation, and "not acknowledge" it? Quoting Council on Foreign Relations, "Although targeting terror suspects with UAVs in official combat areas is deemed legal, the use of the technology outside a declared zone of combat--i.e., Iraq and Afghanistan--has brought international criticism. Complicating the picture in Pakistan is that the UAV-targeting program is believed to be operated by the CIA; a number of disclosures by senior U.S. officials have all-but confirmed the operations. The distinction between military applications and covert CIA use of drones has become a point of contention, as are issues pertaining to collateral damage and legal justification." According to The New York Times, "In September, drone attacks in Pakistan drastically increased as part of the C.I.A.'s covert war in the region. The agency has launched at least 20 attacks, the most ever during a single month, and more than twice the number in a typical month." So, what do you think, my fellow Americans? Is U.S. foreign policy a response to terrorism, or the cause?
I would like to engage you in a dialog. To start, let me ask all of you a question...
Let us say for the sake of our discussion that you are in charge of transportation infrastructure energy policy for Planet Earth. If you find a world wide government post beyond your capacity of imagination, you can assume your scope is reduced to North America ... just bear with me, I submit the perspective applies equally well regardless of scale. You are about to make public your roadmap for the future.
Of course, your choices are myriad, with many recommending and deselecting aspects to be considered for each.
Of course we still have countless numbers of other matters of equal or perhaps greater import than this, for one example we need to settle on the optimal energy sourcing formula. But for this episode of our dialog, dear reader, please consider this.
If through an exhaustive, comprehensive and decades-spanning analysis process you had narrowed your choices down to the following two, which in your official capacity, would you select and why?
You will direct your planet (...or your personal composting heap, for you backyard scale folks that are still with me) to set as the strategic goal the achievement of an infrastructure based on energy movement and delivery via one of these. Will you select -
the worldwide transport, storage, distribution and burning of a highly flammable toxic liquid fuel or...
distribution of energy using an electrical grid?
I know which one I would choose...
By the way, the car in the picture is the E301 hybrid concept vehicle by Chinese manufacturer Chang'An.
First habitable planet outside solar system is found...
The current historical record we inhabit is one of several "civilization iterations" that have occured here on earth... We see in the anthropological record clear and irrefutable evidence for this...
I am sure most people are now aware of the facts around 9/11 but just in case you are among those who are not, I present Mister Nelson, telling it like it is...
peAce... would have been a much better course GW & co... topbop!
