How Europeans ruined the Middle East


Sex criminal Orit Cohen
(Far right Israeli Orit Strook)
(Uncivilized) How Europe and the West f*cked up the Middle East: fake borders, divide and conquer, fragmentation and turning people on each other. Jewish American Professor Jeffrey David Sachs (Columbia U) explains Israel's genocide, ethnic cleanings, and ongoing US-abetted war crimes when the rogue state of "Israel" does NOT speak for the Jews of the world no matter what its propaganda and PR say. "Jews" are not to blame for the international criminal behavior of "Zionists" and all the non-Jewish (Goyim, Gentile) people they have blackmailed, extorted, and deceived into backing their plans.

The media hides what Israel does

Do the CIA or Mossad (Israel's CIA) claim child sex trafficker and Trump friend Jeffrey Epstein?

China and India preparing for war (WSJ)


A billion people here, another billion there
(WSJ) How China is quietly bracing for war with India
. Pakistan is delighted. How much money will Israel and its affiliated arms dealers make from selling weapons in this conflict? How will the CIA angle for long-term advantage (full spectrum dominance) in the region? And does the 14th Dalai Lama regret taking sides and affiliating himself with The Company (aka the CIA)?

Trump causes stock crisis, protests


Top U.S. and World Headlines — Monday, Feb. 3, 2025
‎شرش | Shoresh | שר”ש‎ (@shoresh_us)
Trump is a disrupter. Is that good in a bad government? It should be, but as it comes on the backs of the most vulnerable, it is despicable. What does Trump stand for? More war in Israel, more government funding for weapons? Trump, perhaps bluffing, speaks of American imperialism in Greenland, Canada, Mexico, and Panama. He is taking residents of this nation and rounding them up with a Gestapo like force. Meanwhile, Chicagoan and Israeli strongman Bibi Netanyahu visits the U.S. to celebrate Trump's rule.

Can a Jew rise above fascism and not be ruined by it?

Deporter in Chief: DJ's racist appeals


"Communities were destroyed": Mass U.S. deportations of 1930s and '50s show harm of Trump plan
(Democracy Now!) Nov. 7, 2024: DJ Trump has made the mass deportation of immigrants a centerpiece of his plans for a second term, vowing to forcibly remove as many as 20 million people from the country.

Historian Ana Raquel Minian, who studies the history of immigration, says earlier mass deportation programs in the 1930s and '50s led to widespread abuse, tearing many families apart through violent means that also resulted in the expulsion of many U.S. citizens.

"These deportations that Trump is claiming that he will do will have mass implications to our civil rights, to our communities and to our economy, and of course to the people who are being deported themselves," says Minian.

She also says that while Trump's extremist rhetoric encourages hate and violence against vulnerable communities, in terms of policy there is great continuity with the Biden administration, which kept many of the same policies in place.

Bible dealing Trump supports abortion


Jimmy Kimmel unloads on Trump again in must-see takedown
(MeidasTouch) April 8, 2024: The feud between Jimmy Kimmel and disgraced former Pres. Donald Trump just keeps getting better! Kimmel used a recent monologue to completelu eviscerate Trump over his immigration lies. Francis Maxwell reacts. Visit https://meidastouch.com for more.

Confused Trump stuns MAGA base with abortion video
(David Pakman Show) April 8, 2024: A confused Donald Trump stuns MAGA voters with a new video about abortion in which he appears to say essentially "do whatever you want as long as you support me." Trump cares about.

Good Christians between rockhead and a hardplace
Good Christians dislike Trump; it's just that Biden is even worse (more senile, less biblical). Trump may lie, but at least he's telling the right lies so one could fool oneself that maybe God is using him to do good despite himself, whereas Genocidal Joe is just a lost soul between in Looneyville and Lalaland:

Crisis at the US-Mexico border (alarmism)

Daily Show; Jimmy Dore; Pfc. Sandoval, Ashley Wells, Seth Auberon (eds.), Wisdom Quartelry

Jon Stewart on bi migrant fearmongering, Ronny Chieng on Trump's Black AI attempt
(The Daily Show) March 9, 2024: Jon Stewart unpacks the GOP’s migrant crime fearmongering and brings in genius comedienne Desi Lydic to brainstorm on how Democrats might convict Trump. Ronny Chieng recaps Super Tuesday, the U.S. sending trivial and pathetic amounts of humanitarian aid to Gaza while generously funding Israel's genocide, ethnic cleansing, and crimes against humanity (no matter that the International Court of Justice is onto both countries and pursuing prosecutions against them, for which they will diplomatically cover one another as they have done for a long time), and Trump’s attempt to lure in Black voters with AI.

(Jimmy Dore) Our open border policy is intended to destroy America
Jimmy Dore RESPONDS to immigration stance hypocrisy accusation

Tweedle-dumb and Tweedle-Dem (Money Party)
Jimmy Dore, with more information, makes an about face and agrees that the border needs to be shut down because this crisis is being manufactured intentionally for some other purpose, such as what favors the ruling class of billionaire donors/movers and shakers behind our one-party system, with two wings and two wingnuts (Trump and Biden) as the faces of each side when they don't decide anything they are not allowed to decide. In this sense, Trump might be 1% better than Biden because he frustrates the ruling class by not opening new war fronts, whereas Biden never met a military engagement he didn't like and support, other than Vietnam when he was at risk of potentially being drafted, not that that was going to be allowed to happen. Would Trump accept a new war if it meant the powers that be promised to get him (s)elected him next time. We think so. He's really no substantive alternative to the current system just more of the same with more bluster, self-interest, and stupidity to boot. Vote neither of the two evils. Go Green with Jill Stein. Go Independent with Andrew D. Basiago. Go Libertarian with RFK Jr. Anything might be better than more of the same old same old. Because as a wise observer once said, "If you think the System is working, you must be working for the System." Down with the System. Reform it, realign it, or revolt against it. This is no way for a free country to keep deceiving its citizens and the world.

Protestants rise up against Burmese dictators

FRANCE 24 English, Sep 29, 2023; Pfc. Sandoval, Dhr. Seven (eds.), Wisdom Quarterly
Theravada Buddhists and visitors enjoy the great Shwedagon Pagoda in Rangoon, Burma.

Burma: Inside the Protestant Chin ethnic group's armed resistance against ruling junta

Hateful nationalist monk Ashin Wirathu (AP)
(FRANCE 24 English) France 24 is a French public broadcast service. Since the February 2021 coup in Burma (renamed "Myanmar" by the new military dictators), the Protestant Christian Chin ethnic minority -- one of 135 officially recognized in Burma -- has taken up arms to defend its land, identity and ideals against the all-powerful ruling junta in the Theravada Buddhist-majority country. The team reports. Read more about this story in this article: f24.my/9p4i.y


Myanmar: How the Chin are fighting the Junta
(DW Documentary) DW is a German public broadcast service. Aug. 8, 2023:  After another military coup in Burma (Myanmar) in 2021, the Christian Chin ethnic minority took up arms. The Chin people are fighting to defend their territory, their identity, and their democratic principles against the junta (military dictatorship). In the mountains in the remote west of Burma, a bitter war is raging. The Chin, a primarily Christian minority, still control most of the area after putting up a fierce resistance against the Myanmar military. The resistance fighters train in the mountains along the peaceful Indian border. Hundreds of young people gave up their jobs or studies to join the battle. Although they’re equipped with little more than light weapons, they’re determined to stand their ground. But the civilian population is paying a high price for the war. Thousands of villagers have been bombed by the junta, their homes destroyed. Many have been forced to flee. Nevertheless, the Chin remain committed to the fight to overthrow the military regime. #Myanmar

COMMENTARY
As monks we oppose this bad gov't.
It is not quite correct to call the generals that form the military junta after the coup "Buddhists," they do tend to be Buddhists in name only, as they kill and oppress Buddhist monks and nuns (sayalays), as during the Saffron Revolution when Buddhist monastics stood up against the military dictatorship and were brutally suppressed.

Gen. Than Shwe: Come back, Hillary
That suppression came with the aid and blessing of U.S. presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton, who was in the country making deals with Aung San Suu Kyi to fight a proxy war against China and exploit Burma's resources for the U.S. and Western markets.

As Clinton lost in a humiliating defeat to dumb Donald Trump, the whole plan of setting up a fake nominal democracy in the style of America's farcical one-party system (the Money Party with two wings, moderate and extreme-right) fell through.

Aung San Suu Kyi (Time cover)
After the ethnic cleansing of the Rohingya Muslim minority and their return, the Myanmar military committed more atrocities against perceived enemies of the junta (military dictatorship).

The Rohingya, Karens, and Chin are just three of the ethnic minorities so suffer at the hands of oppressive military rule in this police state (which has suffered troubles since the British invasion and arising of George Orwell, who was born here and served in the Royal Forces as a soldier who did not want to side with Great Britain. Much of what he wrote in Nineteen Eighty-Four was witnessed and learned in Burma under British rule and applied to England and the West.

Miraculously, Theravada Buddhism survives and is practiced, benefiting from its isolation from Western tourists and outsiders.

While the Burmese people are open to visitors, particularly Westerners, the country's rulers are not interested in anything but the foreign currency tourists bring. So visiting at this time may not be the best idea out of humanitarian concerns.

The Irish Buddhist: The Forgotten Monk
However, a closed Buddhist country, as for example Bhutan once remained closed, preserves culture. Burma has already been exposed to Western influences: British imperial oppression, the first Western Buddhist monk to be fully ordained being an Irishman more than a century ago who also opposed the British and Christian proselytizers and got in a lot of trouble as a rebel and excellent public speaker. (See the Western Dharma bum Ven. U Dhammaloka).

Then Burma was wooed by its Chinese neighbors, who advanced the corruption of new military leaders out to enrich themselves and their families. Then Burma was made promises by Secretary of State Clinton, promises that fell through, leaving Aung San Suu Kyi in the lurch and disgraced -- and the ASEAN country in turmoil.

Suu Kyi, after years of house arrest, entered government but was such a nationalist and patriot, she could not see the crimes of the real rulers behind the scenes (the junta left in place by Clinton as the country move toward the appearance of parliamentary democracy), the junta attempting to expel or annihilate the Rohingya.

So the world turned against this once great female peace activist who was the greatest hope of the majority of Burmese, as Suu Kyi's father was once a great national hero. She was destined for greatness, restoring the Buddhist country to greatness, but it was not to be. See Burma VJ for a look into the Saffron Revolution and the silly American movie Beyond Rangoon for a hint of what happened that led down this road.
