US "UN Ambassador" Bolton trip to London excites comment

x legion | 08.06.2006 16:21 | London | World

. . . . a full-spectrum screw up of near biblical proportions, putting him in charge of "UN relations" is akin to putting Herod in charge of the "creche", or - to use a diff. example, letting the nasty railroad barons'n'rancher that're throwin th'farmers off the land do without a deputy OR a sherriff. . . .

London gasped.
HE'S in charge????
Was there some horrendous mistake . . . . the OTHER bolton is sitting at the end of a long river, shouting "the horror, the horror" but thinking of good ways the world can get together in advance of disasters to invest a bit of "stitch in time saves nine" effort, perhaps exert a bit of social, good thinking on a monetary global system that seems to have forgotten what its for, etc,etc,etc,etc.
This isnt, fundamentally, an attack on the american people or government, but on the idiocy that seems to have gotten hold of certain people within the c u r r e n t administration recently.... somehow or other.
A budget smaller than that of the New York firebrigade, but we wonder why the world is in such a mess . . . . that isnt a figleaf, thats the word "figleaf" written on a very small piece of paper.
And as for "black helicopters", people - I met those info-war peddlers in the 1970s, I talked with those info-war peddlers, and those infowar peddlers were mighty peeved to think that something that began as a way of undermining the apparent attack on the west that occurred ( back when it seemed the ussr was twisting the UNs less-than-perfect democracy ) - was then continued to increase US arms budgets against CIA estimates ( that were, with hindsight, accurate) in the infamous "B- TEAM" scandal . . . . then seemed more the puppet of a cartel of banks etc trying to play some "cash from chaos" game with the world.
YOU CAN DISTORT A COMPUTERISED ELECTION, OR TWO, YOU CAN TRY A WAR, OR TWO, THEN A "CULTURE
WAR" - in america itself - but all the distractions fail - then trying to replace alleged "engaged" conservatives with a "chinashop bull does brain surgery" attitude for alleged "realo" democrats that cant see the real realpolitik of the crying need to engage in a radical, deliberating democratising of the "UN"- even to the extent of including the p e o p l e of the world. . . . investing the idle capacity of its sentient capital, even, to use your puppeteers pay"masters"
vernacular.
Yes.
ITS THAT LATE.
Get out of the way, let the world THINK, to paraphrase Eisenhower!




see also, "2 remember the scams" + "the eleventh of every month" - "da code its in da. . . . " or recent comments on the current uk indymedia top story that seem almost prewritten for recent u.s.a internal machinations.



radicals here too have had an "aversion programme" to all "UN" type thinking - often due to the same slushfunds.
The sort of "subtle" smear that masquerades as comment - in both Times + Guardian might make the awkward squad think twice, though.
Info-war blowback. . . . GOOD THINKING.
. . . . that'd mean we had gotten WAY lucky.
'Bout time.
