The Wars Of The Future Are Cyber Wars!


June 30-2009:

The Wars Of The Future Are Cyber Wars!

Today global communication is conducted primarily via computer technology and Internet accessing. The computer has become the modus operandi for us to communicate with each other on a global scale, hitherto unheard of. 

Our military systems are also dependent on this technology to operate missiles, launch missiles, launch satellites, and launch directives or cods that will send drones, or warheads towards an enemy thousands of miles away, that is unseen.

The ability to hack into military systems, or law enforcement systems, or National Security Systems are VERY REAL indeed, with expert computer hackers. Some of which do so for a fee, others to interrupt or sabotage, others to brag about.

This reality is the concern or most or all governments worldwide, and are being contemplated on with their own defense systems manned by officially conscripted hackers to work for the state, to guard or prevent their individual systems from being sabotaged or compromised by hackers.

So How Could We Avoid Any Major Catastrophe?

There have been some state to state hacking already, and the victimized states are already known. But hacking into computers worldwide is being done on a daily, and hourly basis. So those governments that are seriously bent of protecting their security networks or systems, MUST endeavor to implement certain technological changes and Fire Walls, to prevent sophisticated hacking into their systems. 

And this will naturally cost large sums of revenue to pay for the know how, the recruits, and systems to build, develop, and monitor. 

But it has to be done!

Suspicions Abound About Michael Jackson's True Cause Of Death?


June 26-2009:

Suspicions Abound About Michael Jackson's True Cause Of Death?

At this point in time, according to the Coroner that attended to his corpse, there was not physical signs that would indicate any suspicious or criminal reason behind Michael's death.

However, some pathological tests, (which may include tissue samples, blood, and other body fluids) will have to be taken, and analyzed for other reasons, or prognoses.

This may take some days or weeks to manifest.

However, the doctor (who supposedly was Michael's personal physician), is missing. And the LA Police wants to meet with him for questioning.

Now why did this doctor disappear?

And why did this doctor leave the scene before the Paramedics arrived?

And why did the doctor not sign or validate Michael's death before he left the premises or Michael's home?

These are serious questions that need to be answered by this missing Physician.

Furthermore, this doctor seem to have a history of personal financial problems. And may be culpable for any misgivings that might result from this investigation.

However, only time will reveal the gravity of it all!

Michael Jackson Has Been Reported DEAD!


June 25-2009:

Michael Jackson Has Been Reported DEAD!

May His Soul Go where all souls go in PEACE!

In Perspective:

Michael Jackson was an entertainer and an icon for millions of fans globally, from all walks of life, and all age and ethnic groups.

He was a genius with a creativity singular to him only. He art, performances, entertainment, and stage drags, will be remembered by all those who have seen him perform personally, and have listened to his music, and seen him on television.

Like Elvis Presley, Sammy Davis-Jr, Ottis Redding, and Bob Nestor Marley, Michael Jackson was in that class of geniuses that will live forever in the minds of all who know, hear, and see him perform.

May his soul go where all souls go, IN PEACE.

Health Care Is Not Only Essential-It Is A MUST!


June 23-2009:

Health Care Is Not Only Essential-It Is A MUST!

Dear Senator/Congressperson,

  Can I depend on you to ardently advocate for, and support the president's Proposed Health Care Plan as I do?

Listed hereunder, are some points that I have outlined, which (to my mind), needs special attention.


* Ensure that SINGLE PAYER representation are at the table during these discussions.

* Ensure that all doctors in general practice are paid relatively equal, regardless of whether he/she is attending to a patient with Medicaid or Medicare insurance.

* Ensure that all patients have the option to choose their own preferred Hospital/Primary Care Physician.

* Ensure that all patients have access to Dental Care (fillings, extractions, cleaning/oral hygiene, and capping loose or missing fillings).

* Ensure that all patients have access to pain management, massage therapy, drug and substance abuse counseling, medication adherence counseling, and blood tests (including HIV Viral Load monitoring).

* Ensure access to maternity care, pre-natal care, post-natal care, pre-abortion counseling, and post abortion counseling.

* Ensure that all doctors accept all patients that are insured or not insured, as a humanitarian gesture, and not simply an emergency consultation, with a prescription issued that the patient cannot afford to fill.

FINALLY:

Health Care is not something that has to be considered, or encouraged.

Health Care is something that ALL societies in this modern era MUST provide for EVERY citizen!

Sincerely,

IRANIANS do not allow the Police Thugs to attack you without fighting back.

The B.R.I.C. Coalition Launched!


This acronym is the name of four developing countries that encourages trade with each other, in a global market place that is too heavily dependent upon the US dollar.

These countries are Brazil Russia, India, and China.

With their emerging economies, and need for sustainable mineral resources for internal development programs and growth. They share a common interest, that when combined in trade will allow them to grow more equitably in the international market arena.

And may also allow them to not be so impacted as much as they are currently, if or when there is another global financial scam/crisis, their dependency upon the US dollar will be less severe.

It is hoped that at some time in the future, a global Super Currency may be introduced, alongside the US dollar, in order for states to have another means to ensure financial stability and security, should another financial crisis like the one we see currently arise.

Dead Beat Fathers & Child Support Problems!


June 19-2009:

Dead Beat Fathers & Child Support Problems!

It was Bill Clinton who introduced the law that penalizes so called Errant or Dead Beat fathers, who became errant in their Child Support payments.

Such individuals could be arrested, charged, arraigned, found guilty (most times) by a Judge, fined and sentenced to serve time in prison.
Thanks to Bill Clinton!

Now with this global economic/scam currently, most regular errants will fail again to pay these payments.

But will the mothers pursue legal action to recoup the payments via the courts?

Blacks and Latino fathers are mostly in this category, because they are most likely to be regularly un-employed, not employed, incarcerated, and prone to layoffs.

The Separation Of Religion & Secularism In Iran

Iranians at the end of this struggle will have to recognize and come to terms with the following facts:

How much longer will Iranians tolerate the involvement of the Ayatollah in Politics, Political Representatives, and Governance?


The Supreme Ayatollah MUST Be Done Away With In Iran!

The only way for TRUE Democracy and Freedom of choice to be realized in Iran, is to get rid of the position of Supreme Leader or Ayatollah, and the Supreme Council.

And replace it with a National Constitution based on Democracy, the Rule Of Law, Free and Fair national elections, freedom to public, speak freely, dissent, and agitate for change.

What Does Freedom & Democracy Mean To Iranians?


June 16-2009:

What Does Freedom & Democracy Mean To Iranians?

Sometimes I ask myself if those of us outside of Iran, or the middle Eastern countries truly understand how democracy and freedom is perceived and is expected to be practiced in those countries. And because of the different perceptions and practices of democracy in the East and West, we sometimes feel that we can make statements on it at anytime, feeling that there is a commonly understood concept of democratic governance in all cultures. Which is certainly not so!

However, as I see it, the outpouring of youths, and women in large numbers against the perceived rigging of this election results, says to me that their must be a perception from the opposition's supporters and voters that something unfair or illegal was done, in order to get the current result or winner of this election.

The Women and most Young people who participated in this election had expectations for equal rights, freedom of expression, freedom of the Internet, the local media, and freedom to peacefully agitate for changes, without being harassed by the security agencies or Police, or incarcerated for so doing. And the opposing contender seem to have garnered the support of mostly young people and women, who genuinely believed that their representative, if elected will address these issues and concerns.

Even though both political contenders swore allegiance to the Supreme Ayatollah, and the Islamic State, before they were allowed to contend for the presidency. And even if the losing side had won this election, it would not have prevented the Supreme Ayatollah from intervening in the government anytime he perceives that his conservative position was under threat.

So what happens after the recount?

If after a recount is done, and Achmedinajad is still the winner, the opposition will have to abide by the result of this recount. And his supporters will probably go along with it too in sorrow. But I hope that the struggle will never cease or die in frustration. But that the youths and women generally, will continue to agitate for these issues to be addressed by their government, for the freedom to express their fears, anger, and expectations peacefully, in the future.

FREE & FAIR Elections Is What We Believe And Aspire To Achieve Always!


June 15-2009:

Americans Speak Out Against Elections That Are Not FREE & FAIR Anywhere!

Dear President Obama,

America and the presidency has to be either for Free And Fair Elections or Democracy in Iran.

Or For Dictatorship and State Control.

We cannot accept, or seem to be telling Iran and the rest of the world, that we will not say anything that will embarrass the administration in Iran, when the rest of the world is furious with the recent seemingly rigged elections.

Americans Will Not Cringe At The Sight Of A Little Blood!

Why do you and others in the television media caution Americans before you show someone bleeding, or some macabre killing photo or scenario?

We all see these pictures (all age groups), on the Internet all the time. And there is no one there to caution anyone. And nobody complains about this.

In fact, most people prefer to see these graphic pictures for themselves, because it helps to bring perspective to that situation.

We are not WHIMPS, and would not CRINGE at the sight of some spilled blood!.


An Enquiry From The Highest Court In Iran Is warranted!

It seems like the Supreme Ayatollah and his Militia were complicit, in the unscrupulous vote rigging that obviously went down in Iran's elections.

This FARCE must never be accepted as legitimate. A fresh and new election is warranted now!

This is the most ridiculous proposal ever by Israel, for Palestinians to comply with.

The Malawi Supreme Court Grants Madonna Adoption Of Another Child!


The Supreme Court in Malawi has granted Madonna legal permission to adopt another one of their orphans. The court maintained that she is rich, and that alone qualifies her to adequately take care of the child.

But what bothers me is that the court seem not too interested, in how this adoption will affect that child when he/she becomes an adolescent or an adult. With no ethnic mother or father role model, no cultural identity that he/she could psychologically identify with.

And like Blacks who were brought to America, The Caribbean, Central and South America, and other parts of the world. that child will just have to make do with his/her new name, and national identity, and become something that his Caucasian adopted mother wants him/her to be.

Some may say that this child is better off with Madonna, than being in any orphanage!

But I say to them all. Ask all or any former orphan that you could find, and hear their views about being better off or not better off with any adopted parent.

Circumcision To An Infant Is A Violation Of His/Her Human Rights!

This procedure done by Jews and Moslems for centuries, may be regarded as necessary for those who are devout Moslems or Jewish. But in keeping with current reality, it is a violation of the infants Human Rights (Plain and Simple).

This procedure also inhibits the sensitivity at the apex or head of the male's penis, to feel any sensation, which is natural and vitally necessary for sexual stimulation/pleasure.

Maybe the original thought behind circumcision was to inhibit the male from sexual feelings or stimulation, which a male would have experienced naturally.

And in any culture that advocates marriage before sexual encounter, I can see how that rationale begun, and is practiced universally within the Moslem and Jewish communities.

The Chinese tend to prefer being in charge in most instances, supervised by their own people, recreate with their own people, and socialize with their own people, wherever they are.

And I ask myself, why?

Is it a cultural phenomenon, or is it Chinese undeclared policy abroad?

Whatever it is, I am very curious about this behavior of the Chinese abroad!

How Do We Define Human Rights In Iran?

Whoever emerges as the winner in Iran's election, will have to define the concept of Human Rights.

Is it Human Rights under the Islamic Concepts?

Or is Human Rights under the United Nations Concepts?

Until the new leader is able to define his position on the above, he may just be another pawn to the Absolute Ayatollah's dictates.

With regard to diplomatic relations with the West or the USA. Subtle diplomacy aught to be the policy going forward.

Because if the new leader continues to use aggressive and defamatory rhetoric towards America publicly, then the ability to indulge in positive and constructive diplomatic relations with America may be jeopardized.

And may result in the continued portrayal of both cultures, as cantankerous and not to be trusted or believed.

After Omar Bongo What's Next?


June 10-2009:

After Omar Bongo What's Next?

African states that were former colonies have a dilemma of cultural and economic dependence upon their former colonial masters.

Most of these states emerged as dictatorships, with the socio-political systems centered around the leader of the new independent country. Outsiders see these new and independent former colonies in Africa as free states, and feels that on the surface the national economy and political leadership have the approval of the national commonweal.

But in most cases the elected or appointed leadership are illegal, dictatorial, and are centered upon the personality of the leader, ruling elite, or ruling class.

The various ethnic groups within are at the mercy of the ruling elite, with mass unemployment, illiteracy, corruption in all places, and sometimes ethnic violence from those who feel victimized or totally left out of the political and economic process and benefits therein.

So who will emerge as Gabon's Leader?

Naturally, this country was ruled by Bongo's family for decades. And most of his ministers are family members too. Omar Bongo owns over 33 homes in France, most of which were acquired through 'kick back' deals with businessmen.

Therefore, it stands to reason that the new leader will be a family member, after the interim Prime Minister calls for an election.

And from which will emerge another victorious Bongo member, because the election machinery was and is in the hands of that family for decades, with an apposition that was made null and void.

Released Algerian Citizen To France-Spoke Out On France TV!

The recently released Algerian citizen who served seven years in Gyantanamo Bay Prison, as a suspected terrorist spoke out on French Television (france24.com) today. He said that he was not a terrorist or any sort, nor has he done anything that would be considered terrorism. His inhumane experience in that American Concentration Camp at Gyantanamo Bay, was a testament to the horrors of it's inmates, many of whom were merely picked up in haste, to get victims for the authorities's revenge mentality from foreign lands.

That is basically the bottom line of his remarks!

Now this man's personal identity papers were never returned to him, and his prospects for any kind of positive future is severely impaired. How this man is going to provide for his wife and family, is anyone's guess.

His internment at Gyantanamo should make anyone with a conscience for Human Rights, Justice Under The Law, and Respect For Human Dignity, strive even harder to ensure that this facility is permanently closed, and all of it's inmates given Habeas Corpus in a recognized Court Of Law.

Could Hezbullah & HAMAS Political organizations Become Mainstream?


June 08-2009:

Could Hezbullah & HAMAS Political organizations Become Mainstream?

This question I have recently pondered very deeply. And here is my take on it:

* Firstly, for these two political and religiously influenced organizations to gain mainstream support in their respective territories. They have to be more inclusive of all ethnic groups, religious affiliations, and females too.

* Secondly, these organizations MUST try to show that they are not totally male dominated or oriented, by using women in some aspects of their political discourses and frontline activities.

* Thirdly, they MUST indicate their support of women's issues like freedom to vote, hold political office, and the choice to wear or not to wear the head scarf.

* Fourthly, freedom of women to seek divorce if the marriage is compromised (by any party), for infidelity, or some other unlawful means.

* Fifth, freedom of the Press, the Media, The Internet, and to demonstrate peacefully, for or against the political administration in power.

* Sixth, to declare that Israel has the right to their sovereignty, and the Palestinians have the right also to self determination, and eventually their own sovereign state.

With these accommodations publicly declared and incorporated into their mandate and policies, I believe that Christians and Non Moslems, will be more inclined to pay attention or support Hezbullah and HAMAS, as their political representatives.

President Omar Bongo Of Gabon Has Died!

President Omar Bongo of Gabon, has died after (43 years, in a One Party State). He was 73 years of age, after a long illness. This man ruled for four decades over people who never knew of any alternative, or had no other choice for another leader to emerge or encouraged.

Because he stiffled and snuffed out all opposition via the election apparatus, everytime an election is allowed to happen.

President Bongo never took a vacation for all of his 43 years in office, for fear that he may lose his position. That is what happens when any dictator takes office illegally.

They have to live in perpetual fear for their life and position. Seventy three percent of his people live in abject poverty, while he enriched himself from the country's coffers with millions illegally.

Ironically, in Africa power is sought through the majority vote. If a tribe is the majority in any state, it is a foregone conclusion that they must be the rulers of that state of government.

Currently, even the president is under siege. He has no Army, his police Force is very small, and they only try to protect the areas close to the palace.

The general population are also under siege by it's own people, many of whom are terrorists. They spy on each other, and they dress alike, so there is no insignias, uniform, or any other physical sign to distinguish these terrorists from the others. So nobody trusts anyone any more, not even your own family or relatives.

That is how dire the situation there is presently. And the African states will not send anymore of their troops, for fear that they too will be killed en masse. In this socio-political climate, hope is absent among these people.

I have found some so-called charities that engage in charitable fund raising activities that makes me cringe.

For example, some charities sponsor a dinner, asking attendees to pay one hundred dollars to attend. No entrance fee, only the one hundred dollars required towards that one meal. And they say that is your contribution towards that charitable cause.

This kind of interpretation bothers me dearly. Because to my mind, asking for one hundred dollars for one meal, that may be priced at 20 or 30 dollars at a restaurant, is a SCAM, and is un-cool.

How To Get Information Out Of China!

It has been, and will always be a problem for Bloggers and concerned citizens in China to communicate with the outside world online, if they are continually blocked of prevented from so doing.

So here is my plan to assist those who really want to make a contribution to social justice and free press.

* Find English Speaking Chinese youth, who are politically astute, aware, and concerned about the social political climate in China, to send their Blogs or commentaries to someone here in the USA, or in Europe, that has un-impaired access to the Internet.

* It is also IMPERATIVE that both parties communicate in languages that both could write, and understand fully.

* So when a Blogger or Citizen contact in China, Burma, or any other restricted region wants to relay his or her experiences or observation (in real time), can do so directly to his or her contact in the USA, Europe, etc
via E-mail.

* And the contact on the receiving end will copy and paste same in English, Spanish, French, or any other language that is necessary, and forward it to his or her contacts to spread the word.

VIRAL communication like these could help greatly in enlightening the West about the current human rights situations in the above mentioned societies on a regular basis.

Surveillance Technology!

Surveillance Technology!

What is surveillance technology?

This is a concept that is being used currently around the world. Mostly by private enterprise, to monitor consumer behavior in stores, on the streets, and other areas of interest.

Governments with the help of private technologists have developed, and are constantly developing technology for surveillance of their citizenry.

This is done in China, Burma, India, the UK, The USA, Germany, Russia, the EU, and everywhere around the globe, where it is felt that the people must be monitored. Especially where there are terrorist activities.

However, in light of the current terrorist activities in the political arena, globally, technology for surveillance purposes are constantly being improved and tweaked to provide for specific needs of clients. Be it government or private enterprise.

So the next time you see that commercial bill board in lights, it may be monitoring you as you pass by and stare at it, because of it's lure. And you may never be aware that it is monitoring your interest in it.

This type of technology also infringes upon the commonweal's privacy in public places. Because if the citizenry is constantly being watched every way he or she goes in public. Then who is to stop the state from arresting anyone they feel, if he or she fits a certain profile or behaves according to certain observations on record.

This is very disconcerting for those of us who believe that the any state or private enterprise, that indulges in such activities must be stringently controlled, less we all find ourselves pawns or targets, for the state's covert actions or designs!

NEWS From My Perspective!


June 01-2009:

Brazilian Commercial Plane Disappeared Over The Atlantic Ocean!

A Brazilian commercial plane with 226 passengers disappeared from radar over the Atlantic ocean, en route to Paris.

Personally, I believe that this plane crashed into the sea. Possibly a nose dive under the ocean.

A search and rescue is underway by Brazilian and French authorities.

When an aircraft goes down in the sea, it goes immediately under. The doors cannot be opened under there.. So all passengers will ultimately be drowned!

All 226 passengers will be screaming for life, while the water gradually engulfed the entire interior of the plane, until they drowned.

Say goodbye to them all.

Because the possibility of rescuing anyone alive, is extremely slim!

General Motors Finally Declares Bankruptcy!

GM has finally declared what most Americans feared would become a reality.

However, their sister company in Germany was able to prevent that, by allowing the Russian governments 35% shares contribution, a private car manufacturer in Russia bought 30% in shares, GM of Germany bought 25% shares bought, and the employees bought 10% in shares, thus saving the OPEL car model of over a 100 years from bankruptcy.

How GM here in America will eventually emerge after this bankruptcy is eventually reconciled, is anyone's guess..

However, GM will be smaller, hopefully more modern, healthier, and is good shape to compete with other car manufacturers of this century globally!
