Ron Unz: Mossad's assassinations of leading Americans - [PEACE]
by Zenaan Harkness 05 Aug '20

05 Aug '20

We know the CIA's public record of coup's and assassinations is a real threat to social sanity, and there's a somewhat public record of CIA + Mossad cooperation. Ron Unz lays out just some of the Mossad side of the equation (now we know why Unz was being denigrated/ un-personed a few weeks back - someone had inside knowledge of what was coming down the pipeline): Mossad's Bloody Trail of Assassinations of Leading Americans and Others Should Infuriate You - Another Ron Unz Bombshell Article https://russia-insider.com/en/history/mossads-bloody-trail-assassinations-l… It looks like the Soleimani murder is just part of a decades long pattern, as American statecraft blends indistinguishably with Israel's penchant for the underhanded and bloody. ... "The sheer quantity of such foreign assassinations was really quite remarkable, with the knowledgeable reviewer in the New York Times suggesting that the Israeli total over the last half-century or so seemed far greater than that of any other nation." "I might even go farther: if we excluded domestic killings, I wouldn’t be surprised if the body-count exceeded the combined total for that of all other major countries in the world. I think all the lurid revelations of lethal CIA or KGB Cold War assassination plots that I have seen discussed in newspaper articles might fit comfortably into just a chapter or two of Bergman’s extremely long book." "The extent to which the agents of the Jewish state and its Zionist predecessor organizations have engaged in the most rampant international crime and violations of the accepted rules of warfare is really quite extraordinary, perhaps having few parallels in modern world history." ...

Gifts that keep on giving: Oklahoma Uni: Police try to id person posting "IT'S OKAY TO BE WHITE" flyers - [PEACE]

Some 2016 memes, like "wierd flashing GIFs that appear, then disappear, and they're on the Dark Web and NOBODY can find them" keep on giving in 2019: Clinton: “Flashing Videos That Appear and Then Disappear and They’re on the Dark Web and Nobody Can Find Them” http://dstormer6em3i4km.onion/clinton-finally-hits-on-reason-she-lost-flash… [Flashing Gif elided] A flashing image I found on the dark web. If this appears or disappears, try refreshing your browser or deleting system32. If you can’t find it after that, you might be out of luck. It is truly incredible that “Madam President Scorned” is still a meme – but it do. She is still out there, every week, dropping new and increasingly fascinating reasons for why she lost the 2016 election. Hillary Clinton: ... “I think it’s going to be the same as 2016,” Clinton said. “I’m going to show you in these flashing videos that appear and then disappear and they’re on the dark web and nobody can find them, but you’re going to see them and you’re going to see that person doing these horrible things.” [Michelle Obama swimsuit shots not attached] Some 2017 memes are gifts that surprisingly, just keep on giving in 2019 - astounding but true: “It’s Okay to be White” Flyers Still Sending Universities Into Chaos http://dstormer6em3i4km.onion/its-okay-to-be-white-flyers-still-sending-uni… You’d think liberals would have gotten over it by now… The annual “It’s Okay to be White” freakout is happening again. The Oklahoman: https://oklahoman.com/article/5645882/police-searching-for-suspect-who-left… Police are trying to identify a person who posted flyers saying “IT’S OKAY TO BE WHITE” at the Oklahoma City University School of Law. OCU Police Director Bill Citty said officers don’t believe the person is a threat to students or the school campus. The person left several papers Thursday night with the text “IT’S OKAY TO BE WHITE” outside and on the doors of the law school, 800 N Harvey. Campus police obtained images of the man and have a “good idea” of his identity, Citty said. The Oklahoma City Police Department is trying to locate the man for questioning. “The important thing now is to 100% identify this person and find out what his intentions were,” Citty said. ... Against all odds, it seems like this classic trick is still soliciting the same response from both the schools and the media, showing us once again that liberals won’t learn their lesson if they have an opportunity to freak out and publicly signal how virtuous they are. Once the man is found, officers will try to determine whether he planned any more incidents at OCU. The man will be told not to return to the school campus. The flyers alone don’t appear to be a crime, Citty said. Property would have to be destroyed for vandalism to apply. Officers will investigate whether the person’s actions amounted to a hate crime. ... the law school has been “intentional and relentless” in celebrating its diverse community. The school celebrated Hispanic Heritage Month, LGBTQ+ History Month and Day of the Dead and will honor Native American Heritage Month. Naturally, the school is “intentionally” and “relentlessly” celebrating brown people and perverts, but if anyone publicly claims to be comfortable being a White guy, God help him. Just the fact that the school is reacting this way to this simple flyer sends the message loud and clear that it’s not, in fact, okay to be White. ... Stunning stuff...

He explains the 4 basic steps of socially engineering an entire generation into thinking and behaving the way those in power want them to. It's a little freaky that our nation was transformed in the exact same way, and followed the exact same steps. This is related to the classic "Problem - Reaction - Solution" play book. If the problem does not exist to reach the desired solution they cause the problem... (flase flag terror attacks - fear - police state), (Man mad Global warming - fear - Global taxes to fund a world Government), (Underwear bomber - fear - naked body scanners).....

News. Firstly to warm the cockles and trigger the fuzzies, a Jesse Lee Peterson interview at everybody's favourite chan :) Funny tho, whilst the Groyper crowd are opening the floor, passing the mic, and generally having a lot of discussions and questions, the so-called "con"servatives are Shutting It Down!

By confronting her accusers directly Gabbard showed everyone watching the difference between the caricature created by Clinton and her cronies on The View and the reality of her character.

He came onto The View, like Gabbard the day before, armed to the teeth and ready use everything at his disposal. He knows walking into that arena they aren’t going to fight fair, that they’ll fall back on the laziest of arguments, like Meghan McCain virtue signaling her false eyelashes off over “Gold Star Families” who are disrespected by President Trump’s private locker room conversation, while disgustingly wrapping herself in her dead father’s flag. And his comebacks and arguments were so strong that he had The View’s audience cheering for him. It forced Joy Behar to publicly scold her audience that her show wasn’t a MAGA rally. ... Trump Jr. in less than one seven-minute television segment ripped off their masks revealing the true depth of The View’s ugliness.

A snitch in time save nein - NZ gov "snitch" website crashes due to overload - [PEACE]
by Zenaan Harkness 20 Jul '20

20 Jul '20

Abhorrent, ingorant, dotile, self righteous, and self centred humans are on full display here, as they rush in a great clamour to snitch on their neighbours, crashing the New Zealand government website in a frenzy of "rule breaker" reporting: New Zealand Site Crashes as Locals Rush to Report Rule-Breaking Neighbors Amid Lockdown https://sputniknews.com/society/202003301078767438-new-zealand-site-crashes… New Zealanders are so eager to report others for breaking COVID-19 lockdown rules that the police website for reporting such cases crashed shortly after going live, local law enforcement officials revealed Monday. With New Zealand currently under a coronavirus lockdown, strict measures such as maintaining a distance of 2 meters from others have been imposed by authorities. Other restrictions include only allowing residents to leave their homes for essential reasons, i.e. for groceries or medical care. .. "We've had 4,200 reports of people believing others weren't complying," New Zealand Police Commissioner Mike Bush is quoted as saying by AFP. "It shows how determined Kiwis [a nickname used to refer to people from New Zealand] are that everyone complies with us,” Bush added. .. “Not every one of these over 4,000 reports will result in a visit from police. For example, some are reports of people jogging or walking past. People are of course allowed to do this within their own neighbourhoods. We have been attending where there are large groups of people congregating,” an unidentified police spokesperson told the Guardian. According to Bush, at least three people in New Zealand have been detained for breaking the lockdown rules, one of whom remains in police custody. He also noted that campervans carrying tourists traveling throughout the country have been a sustained issue. New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern has also urged the public to report cases of people breaking lockdown measures. "Now is not the time to bend the rules. This is a time to stay at home and save lives," Ardern recently told reporters, according to AFP. .. The greatest problem the anarchist faces is his lack of will (or occasionally lack of ability) to handle the humans in front of him. The epic truth of sheeple's' true nature is often avoided in a self delusion of techno utopian/fascist "solutions". It is -not- more technology we need. How to inculcate sanity?

PPP Loans and Solving America's Pathetic Commercial Banks Problem - [MONEY] [PEACE] [NATIONALISM]
by Zenaan Harkness 20 Jul '20

20 Jul '20

(tl;dr: expand Fannie May and Freddie Mac to get this simple job done!) --- Education ---------------------------------- Nationalism - re-industrialization - rebuilding America - MAGA "Sane greed": the ultra wealthy collect, and often covet, wealth. Spending one's attention, energy and time collecting wealth, seems a little pointless if the store of that wealth (money, bonds, real estate, businesses, the entire economy) is unstable. A stable wealth pyramid absolutely requires stability on each layer: - The bottom layer, or real economy: small to medium businesses, households, food and basic survival for the majority. UBI can provide this to a limited extent, but overall stability of each layer of the pyramid, requires self sufficiency at each layer of the pyramid. Part analogy and part reality, we can say this is "vertical integration at the local level", but of course, vertical integration can apply all the way down to the family level (grow your own food, collect your own rainwater, build your own car if you're so inclined, etc). - The middle layer, also (mostly) the real economy, medium to large businesses, industry, manufacturing etc, the middle to upper middle class. Stability at this layer absolutely requires stability of businesses - from food and processing, to building, all types of manufacturing, and transport and energy of course. Stability in this context means nationalisation - tarriffs to financially protect local (/national) industry/manufacturing etc. Engineering the middle class lifestyle on a national level, means middle class self sufficiency - incomes, objects for purchase such as luxury transport, things to do such as travel, and supporting all this with commensurate incomes. This is vertical integration at the state and/or national level. And before you jump on "think of the starving brown children somewhere in Africa" shitwagon: EVERY country/nation that wants to do this, can do this, modulo the capacity, will and intention of their own people. "It is my job first to survive/thrive as an individual, then to care for my family, then community; I share with those further away from my immediate reality, according to my abundance and according to my will arising out of my personal choices." EVERY human has these same rights. Just not everyone has the same ability, nor intentions, nor aspirations - and that is nobodies fault, and no ones responsibility other than the individual himself. - The upper layer, hedge funds, banks, nation states, oligarchs. Stability at this layer is not possible over the long term without stability in the lower layers, since the financialized "economy" is inherently built on the real economy. --- Problem --------------------------------- So in the face of the financial/economic apocalypse arising from the global virus shut down, the North American government decided to issue a few hundred billion dollars in low interest loans, specifically to small and medium businesses, to help them weather this extended and extraordinarily financially challenging time. In the context of a purportedly democratic nation state government, so far so good. However, public companies (those that raise money on the stock exchange), who via trillions of dollars in "large business" loans (not to mention further trillions in Federal Reserve Bank financialization bailout funds) immediately gouged right into these funds: 13 Public Companies Agree To Return $170 Million In Small Business Coronavirus Stimulus; Others Are Keeping It https://www.zerohedge.com/economics/13-public-companies-agree-return-170-mi… At least 13 public companies have agreed to return coronavirus funds meant for small businesses after controversy erupted when the $349 billion Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) ran out of funds, leaving many struggling business owners unable to make ends meet. .. The funds returned could provide roughly 825 loans, at the average loan size of $206,000 reported by the Small Business Administration. -Wall Street Journal https://www.wsj.com/articles/a-dozen-public-companies-give-back-160-million… .. Another public company has applied for roughly $123 million in loans, Ashford Inc., says they'll keep whatever they receive. To avoid a repeat, the Small Business Administration (SBA) and Treasury have revised the rules to restrict hedge funds and private-equity firms from accessing funds, though small casinos may still apply. ... and more to the point, banks have been shafting small businesses bigly, funding only about 6% of the small business "paycheck protection program" applications made: Of All The Banks That Shafted Small Businesses Out Of Coronavirus Relief, JPMorgan Takes The Cake https://www.zerohedge.com/economics/all-banks-shafted-small-businesses-out-… While JPMorgan provided loans to virtually all of their commercial banking customers who applied for coronavirus relief through the small business program, their business banking unit - which serves smaller firms - only funded around 6% of applications for the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP), according to Bloomberg. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-04-22/jpmorgan-commercial-clie… Of t he bank's more than 300,000 small business customers who applied, only around 18,000 were funded according to the report. Meanwhile, around 5,500 of the bank's commercial banking customers - nearly all of them, received loans through the small business lending program. In total, JPMorgan originated a total of $14 billion in loans through the program. The data reveal that, in the race to get a loan in the first-come, first-served program, larger businesses had a leg up over smaller ones -- even when applying through the same bank. ... and some will remember the big banks balking at the 0.5% interest rate that Trump was asking to be given through this program to these small businesses, and by political pushing, got this rate DOUBLED to 1.0%: Wall Street Wins Again: Banks Force Treasury To Double Rate On Small Business Rescue Loan https://www.zerohedge.com/economics/hours-its-start-treasurys-small-busines… After we warned earlier that the SBA's $350BN Paycheck Protection Program, which is expected to be launched at midnight tonight and is meant to bailout America's small and medium business (<500 employees), may never even get off the ground because the proposed interest rate on the loan of 0.5% is too low lender banks (alongside with various other considerations as listed below) with JPM saying it “will most likely not be able to start accepting applications on Friday, April 3rd as we had hoped", in a press conference late on Thursday, Steven Mnuchin said that he will double the interest rate on the SBA loan from 0.50% to 1.00% in order to appease banks seeking higher interest rates to participate in the Treasury's bailout program and lend money to the same taxpayers who bailed them out 12 years ago. These are same banks, mind you, that just sold all $1.6 trillion in securities to the Fed to expand their balance sheets capacity in the past three weeks, and which also just benefited from the Fed's decision to remove Treasurys and deposits from the Fed's SLR test, freeing up another $1.6 trillion in liquidity. Furthermore, these loans are guaranteed by the federal government and don’t require collateral, and will be forgiven if funds are used for payroll costs, mortgage interest, rent and utility payments for two months and if businesses retain and rehire employees. So bank don't take any risk - why are they charging any interest at all, or rather why do they have any say in what the rate should be? ... So, the firetrucking American banks in the face of boatloads of cash, cringe at even providing small business loans at a low interest rate WHEN THE LOANS ARE 100% GOVERNMENT BACKED! There's plenty moral turpitude where that came from: Banks To Make Billions On Small Business Bailout https://www.zerohedge.com/economics/banks-make-billions-small-business-bail… .. Yet some may be "shocked" to learn that like in any government bailout package, the biggest winners here will not be America's vibrant small and medium business sector, which at best will get the bare minimum cash to fund 2.5 months of payroll (this assume the pandemic will be resolved by mid-June) but - drumroll - America's banks. As the FT reports overnight, banks stand to make billions by overseeing the distribution of these loans as they receive processing fees, paid by the federal government, for making the loans. The fees will vary with loan size: 5% for loans under $350,000, 3% for loans under $2MM, and 1% for loans greater than $2MM. The loans will not incur a capital charge. ... So at least some American commercial banks are f___ing disgraceful! --- Solution --------------------------------------------- Simple winning solution: Bypass the leeches! Expand the ambit/charter of Freddie Mac and Fannie May, that they be authorised to process and issue these loans! These two federal banks already have the retail outlets, loan application processing facilities, and most importantly, they have the history with many Americans - their customers - and so are able to readily issue such loans to many people. Problem solved, and JPM et al can go to hell for being such greedy and obstreperous banks!

PCR: “It's open season on all White people” - WTC7 - co-ordinated hoaxes - White supremacist Israeli border walls - [PEACE]
by Zenaan Harkness 18 Jul '20

18 Jul '20

A little rambling, perhaps useful for forwarding to someone. Since border walls are White supremacist tools of oppression, that means Israeli's are White supremacists. Easy as 1, 2 and 3 :) Paul Craig Roberts Slams Dems & Western Media: "It's Open Season On All White People" https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2019-08-11/paul-craig-roberts-slams-dems-wes… https://www.paulcraigroberts.org/2019/08/10/the-survival-of-the-fittest/ … Only White Supremacists kill people and build walls, unless they are Israelis, but we are not permitted to say anything about that. By law the US has borders that the law demands be enforced. If immigrants can simply walk across the border, why can’t they fly into the country or come by ships? What is the point of passport control? Indeed, what’s the point of passports? The concept of citizenship simply disappears. … If the US would simply stop overthrowing reformist governments in Latin America, the resources of those countries would be taken out of foreign hands and be put to work for the local people, which is what Venezuela is doing much to the chagrin of American oil companies. The last time Honduras elected a reformer, America’s first black president—Obama—overthrew him. Brazil’s Workers Party was destroyed with the US-orchestrated imprisonment of its leader, Lula da Silva, and removal from office of his successor. In their place Washington has installed a corrupt agent of the Americans. Oppression is applied to the supporters among the people of reformist politicians to ensure that voting ceases to put reformers in power. As General Smedley Butler said, “I was the enforcer in Latin America for the New York Banks and the United Fruit Company.” Perhaps it is poetic justice that the peoples whose resources are carted off to America decide to go with the resources. … The El Paso shooting has been turned not only into an attack on President Trump but also into an attack on white people. Suddenly the “Muslim terrorist threat” has disappeared. Its replacement is the domestic terrorist threat of “white supremacy.” The attack on whites is indiscriminate. The attack on Trump extends to all of the Americans who elected him—“Trump deplorables”—in Hillary’s words. All whites become “racists” and are covered in guilt. The anti-white propaganda is effective. Actress Rosanna Arquette said that her white skin makes her ashamed. The success in teaching emotionally and mentally weak white people to feel guilt is to make it easier for those who wish to displace them to run over them. And most definitely, the core white populations of the Western world are being overrun. As white populations have become too brainwashed and loaded with guilt to defend themselves, perhaps the Social Darwinists were correct after all. The fit survive, and white people are no longer among the fit. CNN former host Reza Aslan, now a professor at the University of California, tweeted: “The President is a white nationalist terror leader. His supporters—ALL OF THEM—are by definition white nationalist terror supporters. The MAGA hat is a KKK hood. And this evil, racist scourge must be eradicated from society.” ...

how to background mutt external viewer applications
by Zenaan Harkness 04 Jul '20

04 Jul '20

A hint is here: http://www.guckes.net/Mutt/setup.html To make it work, do e.g. the following in $HOME/.mailcap as follows (the following is to be on one line): application/pdf; (mv %s %s-\; evince %s-\; rm -f %s-)& sleep 0.2s; test=test -n "$DISPLAY" Couple keys: - mv mutt's temp file to a new name, so mutt cannot delete the file from under the viewer's feet - do the mv, view and rm in a subshell, so that this mini process can be backgrounded - escape the semi colons in that are part of the viewer mailcap entry (ampersand does not need escaping) - rm the temp file (using its new name) after viewing is finished - sleep for a short bit after backgrounding the viewer, in the hope that your kernel will schedule the viewer to do its thing within that time - this time is a racy heuristic, so can fail of course The ideal solution would be another mailcap part of the line, or option, which specifies that the viewer should be backgrounded, so that this little dance does not have to be copied for every entry of interest - although a handful of such entries will likely capture the bulk of daily requirements...
