Narrative reality

I read a tweet from @MaxKeiser about the Batman massacre, half an hour after it happened. Like so many events, the random killing of people in a cinema attracted global attention. It took less than 24 hours not only to have the facts reported, 12 people killed and over 50 wounded, and a prime suspect being arrested after the shooting, but also have people talking all over the globe.

The alleged killer, with hair dyed red, wearing SWAT gear and a gas mask, had his flat booby-trapped with some sophisticated bombs that could have easily killed unsuspecting intruders. The mayhem started by someone entering through an emergency exit, throwing a smoke bomb and then the shooting started.

Basically, we know little more in terms of facts about this event. Yet our minds want to know more. We got exposed to a vicarious trauma, which needs transformation or it will lodge into our psyche. We know instinctively that something 'wrong' happened, luckily not to us. The circumstances suggest that it could happen to us, we can easily identify with going to the movies to watch some spectacular emotional roller coaster made in Hollywood.

Human nervous systems have been prewired to perceive injustice, and our minds demand closure. This means either believing that this event can't be repeated, or that some sort of punishment is dished out to the perpetrator. A psychopath on the loose creates nightmares for the community, understanding this event as a cruel 'act of god' allows the grieving process to start.

The 'lone gunman' narratives describes the current official reading of the story, no worries, we got him in jail, mourn your dead and move on. However, living in the age of web 2.0, of social media, 'talking points' find entirely new ways of being evaluated. The diversity of opinions on the interwebs approaches infinity, and random webs of connections make memes traverse the globe with increasing speed.

We don't even need to wait for some TV team to present their cluelessness, or some pre-scripted version of events, Twitter, Facebook and YouTube quench our thirst for information faster than any single commercial entity ever could. Media consumption has many of us desensitised towards random blood spilling, unless we identify the victims with our in-group. While we're used to hundreds of victims in bombing in the Middle East, massacres in the 'center of current civilisation' make it easier to appeal to our empathy glands.

The preparation for the Batman massacre opens the door to many questions, especially as to how this could all happen. Without a forensic reconstruction of the timeline of this event asking why he did it can't lead to useful conclusion. At this stage, we can't even conclusively say whether James Holmes has killed anyone. A movie theatre filled with smoke makes positive identification nearly impossible, especially of someone wearing a gas mask.

We haven't heard a confession of Holmes on record. During his court appearance he didn't say a word, and looked drugged. Ostensibly, he informed police upon his arrest about the booby-traps in his apartment, another detail that raises suspicion. The Joker, which he impersonated, would have enjoyed blowing up cops, remorse or respect for uniforms seems out of character.

The loner/nutcase explanation remains easiest to come to some closure, without really changing the vicarious trauma. The idea of a complex psy-op offers an alternative path to closure, and doesn't necessarily work out better to deal with the trauma. Although Ireland, Spain and Greece currently demonstrate how little governments hesitate to act against their people, condemning them to poverty and starvation to make some friends filthy rich, blind trust in government is one of aims of state education that usually sticks.

For now, we can only conclude that something really fishy goes on when the official narrative sticks with lone gunman myth. But then, seeing chemtrails on a regular basis might convince you as well to scrutinise messages from media and government a bit more thoroughly.

The Olympic Games in London start.on Friday, I doubt that we'll hear a convincing story from official sources. I wonder whether there's some important date within the Games, I hope David Icke chose the timing of his event well, otherwise the Batman Massacre might look tiny in comparison to London. It certainly withdraw the focus of the security screw up from G4S, which invited many ideas about the next 911 to finalise the NWO takeover (or however you call a prison planet, or global fascism, or One World Government, or Neo Feudalism, or Check mate for mankind, or what ever).

Yet, unless you know someone who was sitting in the Aurora theatre, or someone who was involved in its preparation, you can easily find solace by some simple considerations. It doesn't really matter what exactly happened. But the probability to fall victim to such an event is really small, lottery millions kind of small. Sharks and lightning will get you faster, and if the endgame has begun (and have any idea what endgame means) then better prepare yourself.

If we want to save this planet, everyone is needed. If the endgame continues, most people are dispensable. However, the people, united, can never be defeated. Sweet dreams of the Dark Knight.

Diary of despair

While nature demonstrates her unpredictable powers in Australia, politicians show their fondness of Orwellian Newspeak. Australia's government didn't hesitate to speak up for convicted drug smugglers facing the death penalty, yet leaves Julian Assange in the cold.

Human rights apply only to fair-skinned Australians, only as long as they're not suspected to be terrorists. The native population is still treated like cattle under the 'intervention' policy, a mad move from Howard to reinstate Herrenmensch ideals into Australian politics. Countless asylum seekers died while approaching Australian shores, while others live in privately run detention centres that remind me of concentration camps.

In a democracy, laws should apply to everyone equally, anything else reeks of disguised despotism. Gillard insists that Assange's charges "got to be worked through proper process". The process that happens in Europe is unheard of, laws have been bend to hold Assange hostage like it never happened before. In dictatorships, people can be held indefinitely without any evidence. Being friendly, even submissive towards a regime that practices such deliberate ignorance of human rights in several illegal wars and torture camps like Baghram and Guantanamo Bay, Gillard's stance doesn't surprise me.

Wikileaks attempts to hold governments and companies accountable for their actions. I can be arrested and/or fined just for being drunk where I live, yet Mr Brumby gave away public transport, and multiplied the costs for the tax payer to subsidise multinational companies, who basically can't cope with the demand. Several people spend the rest of their lives in high-security prisons (privately run) because ASIO had to produce terror suspects. Australia doesn't have laws for everyone, but special laws for industrial criminals like Pratt, sport stars, politicians, indigenous people, temporary workers, pensioners, etc.

If representants of governments don't want to be held accountable, they cannot call themselves 'public servants'. Germans were obliged to call their chancellor Führer (leader), and Hitler acted as one. Prime Minister is just a role within the political game. This game makes only sense to keep with more transparency and accountability than ever before in history. Nations have lost their prime position in economic terms long ago, nowadays there's hundreds of companies with a higher budget than even some of the most developed nations.

If politicians want to justify their privileges, they need to leave the murky shade of secrecy, and take responsibility. Gillard sides with the international crime network of governments, no fair go given for one of her fellow citizens.

A lot of people, the kind of people that get provided with free air time in the mass media, outed their attitude towards democracy lately. They insist to continue to work in secrecy, like Count Dracula fearing the light of day shining on their actions. Be grateful, earthling, to witness history in the making.

The 21st century started nightmarish with American imperial ambitions, justified by the myth of all-mighty terrorism. Men wearing suits recklessly demolished human rights, erected invisible walls for the meeting of the global suit wearing elite in Sydney, ordered a continuation of the outrageous injustice thrown unto David Hicks, sold the public transport systems in Victoria to multi-national companies, and still treat the indigenous population of Australia as second class citizens, savages to be taken by the hand.

Men in suits bossed the governments of this planet into paying a ransom to bail them out of their losses, produced by irresponsible and reckless gambling with fantasy products. Men in suits want your vote to legitimate action they don't want to tell you. Men in suit now threaten Julian Assange, someone who helped taxpayers finding out how their money is spend behind their backs.

Shaken

Some human habits make me frown,
like kicking someone when he's down.
I never experienced the sick thrilling
when winning turns into happy killing.

Now Haiti got struck by an earthquake,
vultures appearing openly in its wake.
Ten thousand US soldiers took over the land
and deny giving helpers a hand.

This action has so much appeal -
bringing the guns to heal.
The tears will stop flowing
once the bullets start glowing.

But it's not over yet for humanity,
just another case of temporary insanity.

Swift destruction of human rights

Scope of Application
Conduct Pertaining to Terrorism or Terrorist Financing
This Agreement applies to the obtaining and use of financial payment messaging and related data with a view to the prevention, investigation, detection, or prosecution of:
(a) Acts of a person or entity that involve violence, or are otherwise dangerous to human life or create a risk of damage to property or infrastructure, and which, given their nature and context, are reasonably believed to be committed with the aim of:
(i) intimidating or coercing a population;
(ii) intimidating, compelling, or coercing a government or international organisation to act or abstain from acting;
or
(iii) seriously destabilising or destroying the fundamental political, constitutional, economic, or social structures of a country or an international organisation;
(b) A person or entity assisting, sponsoring, or providing financial, material, or technological support for, or financial or other services to or in support of, acts described in subparagraph (a);
or
(c) A person or entity aiding, abetting, or attempting acts described in subparagraphs (a) or (b).
Have a look at paragraph (a)(ii). Compelling the government to act or abstain from acting is now terrorism. Protesting against wars in Afghanistan or Iraq? Terrorism. Protesting to make politicians accountable for their failings? Terrorism. Asking the government to end the Intervention? Terrorism. Asking the government to abstain from internet censorship? Terrorism. Protest against environmental rape such as Tasmania deforestation? Terrorism.

Politicos from the US, EU, Japan and Australia agreed on this declaration, which makes any form of civil movement (trying to compel governments and corporations to act responsibly) an act of terrorism. Even worse, anyone involved in organising a rally, the rental services providing PA's and transport, poster printers and distributors, stage hands, caterers, etc all can be treated like terrorists according to paragraph (b).

The war on citizens is it an advanced stage, now the US, Japan, EU and Australia join their efforts in criminalizing democratic methods. You might want to invest in Serco, one of the 'public' private partners that runs many of Australia's internment camps, among other public services. Or talk to your neighbor about ways to get rid of a fascist government without military intervention. Or dream on about living in a democratic state. Or follow your orders without thinking. Or distract yourself with sex, drugs and rock'n'roll. Or hope for an alien intervention to stop global corporatism. Or taking more responsibility for your action. Or do what you want.

Rules don't need to make sense to be enforced. Welcome to the corporatist 21st century, the post-democratic era.

Other perspectives



The police force with more legal rights to abuse citizens than any police force in Nazi Germany is pissed off. Unlike in Nazi Germany, they cannot yet protect their citizens from outrageous opinions provided by enemy propaganda on the internet. How on earth does one of a billion Indians dare to ridicule the moral superiority and integrity and heroism and holiness of Victoria Police?

According to Victorian law, all citizens are potential suspects and will be treated as such. Of course, this likens them rather to the Gestapo than to the KKK, but let's face it: Racism is deeply ingrained into the white Australian culture.

Australia's history starts with the First Fleet, although the genocide of the indigenous population is still part of government policy. The Intervention tries to wipe out traces of the first cultures that lived on this continent, creating a retroactive 'terra nulla'.

Diversity is the arch-enemy of tyranny, so the first advise to any potential immigrant is to 'assimilate'. The open arms that embraced (or rather the fists that punched) newcomers indeed fostered a multi-cultural Australia: Being pseudo-english-american isn't appealing to many, which helped conserving some of immigrants cultural inheritances.

Unless you're Michael Jackson, you cannot change the colour of your skin, which limits the amount of potential assimilation. As social beings, humans need contact, and when the 'dominating' group has only minor interest in integrating newcomers, minority 'ghettos' florish. Indians hang out with other Indians, Vietnamese with other Vietnamese, and so on. Not as a general rule, just as more probable choice.

Outbreaks of individual violence don't surprise in a society that cherishes and uses violence abundantly. Australian military contributes to death and destruction, ASIO sets up patsies to justify more police state, the courts go in line and send people for thought crimes in jail. Even starving refugees, from conflict zones Australia is immediately involved, on their vessels on sea sounds appealing to many Australians.

There is something wrong with this cartoon. The symbolism is a bit mixed up. The general message: Watch your police holds more than true. Democracy does no longer exist in a police state.

Gang of criminals

Once upon a time, a German politician named Wolfgang Schäuble met with an arms dealer. Only once, said Schäuble when confessing his nefarious action to the German parliament. However, he managed to forget that he received 100,000 Deutschmarks in cash during this meeting.

It was a tough time for the conservative party in Germany end of the last millenium. Dodgy ways to finance the party became public, suitcases of large amounts of cash, Swiss bank accounts and other schemes looking just like money laundry were unveiled. The social-democrats had taken over the government, and the conservatives were looking for new leadership.

Angela Merkel promised to 'sort out' the internal affairs, and bring honesty back into the party. For a while, she distanced herself of the icons of this scandal and tried to establish her position as 'leader' of the conservative party.

Angela Merkel became the first female chancellor in Germany, with high hopes that a coalition of German's two major party could overcome the indecisive inertia to tackle urging problems (like in many places, education, medical welfare, pensions and employment lack structure, commitment and resources). This hopes remained unfulfilled, the militarization of everyday life dominated politics.

Now, after she won the election and got rid of coalition with the social democrats, it was time to present her chosen ministers. A dutch journalist dared to ask Angela Merkel whether someone who meets up with arms dealers and 'forgets' about 100,000 Deutschmark in cash in his desk drawer is suitable as minister of finance for 82 million Germans. "He is someone who has got my trust, that's all I have to say."

In a way, her reply is much more honest than expected. In feudalism, trust determines how power is split up. Different laws apply for those who govern and those governed. A little bit of corruption and money laundry for the party can end up in jail with laws condemning his undemocratic and subversive behaviour as criminal. The German laws about the misdeeds of political parasites 'forget' penalties. Although the way the conservative party did their financing produced a scandal and lots of public outrage, none of the perpetrators needed to take responsibility in front of a regular court.

So, technically, even though Schäuble confessed his covert meeting with an infamous arms dealer, he's not a criminal. His status as politician prevented the jail term he would have received if he had done the same thing for an officially known organized crime gang. But being part of the gang that declares other gangs as 'bad' made it easy to continue as if nothing ever happened.

The criminal energy and inventiveness he had shown earlier to finance his partys affairs might come handy in his new role as minister of finance. Being reminded in public about her choice of team players, Merkel didn't seem amused, yet to me the name Rob Savelberg appeared on the horizon of real journalists.

Thanks, Rob.

Conspiracy again

Debunking conspiracy theories gets a bit more elegant. Four Corners showed a BBC program 'debunking' a specific consiracy video called 7/7 ripple effect. Like always, the art lies in omission of some of the most mysterious aspects of this attack, combined with ad hominem attacks against some of the producers of these kind of videos that 'undermine the trust in government', and of course a lot emotional appeals.

To be honest, I don't care too much about what exactly happened on the 7th of July 2003 in London. From what I can tell for sure, about 50 people died in 3 three nearly simultaneous bombings on the subway, a forth bomb exploded about an hour later on a bus. I don't condone terror attacks in any way, yet I try to be as compassionate about the loss of innocent life as I can. On that day not only 50 people fell victim to this bomb attack, but about 27,000 children died to maintain global capitalism, like today, and any other day in this century. That's roughly 10 million children each year, sacrificed on the altar of the cruel game of real-life capitalist monopoly.

So if something really sickens me, it's the blatant ignorance of the casualties of the greed of those in power, and unlike terrorism, no government I know of jumps frantically into action to ease this silent, permanent suffering. Here in Australia, corporate sponsors of Saddam Hussein, won't even be held responsible for their immoral behaviour which most likely financed death and torture of much more than 50 people. In case you have no idea what I'm referring to, feel free to refresh your memory of the AWB scandal.

While the corporate war against everyone not born with a golden spoon in their mouth unimpeded continues, ABC raises awareness about the dangers of 'conspiracies'. And it does so in weird ways. One of key points of the 7/7 conspiracies is the allegation that the bombs in the subway were attached underneath the train. The only visual evidence shown in this mockumentary is a hole in a train carriage with metal bending upwards, while the commentary refers to eye witness accounts claiming the opposite. I can't tell whether this shot shows one of the targeted trains, if so, it proves simply an explosion from underneath.

Charles de Menezes found no mentioning at all. No surprise, as this mockumentary aimed in reinstating the myth of the goodness of government, the execution of an innocent man in public by the Metropolitan Police could raise some doubts about the infallibility of the governments attacks to protect life. The lies of Blair government, which supported the US invasion in Iraq, remain unmentioned as well. Why should the viewer be confused by a government willingly killing much more than 50 people in a foreign country with all its military might in a foreign country, when this piece of 'edutainment' wants to prove its undoubtable goodness?

Australia introduced thought crimes into its legislation, and the fear of terror needs reaffirmation. That seem the motivation to dig up some of the more bizarre conspiracy theories floating through the internet. It's all a matter of trust. Trust the mighty, trust the coalition of the willing, which has killed more than a million people in this young century (of course, exclusively in other countries.....), yet fear the highly inefficient 'terrorists', which didn't even kill 10,000 people in the cradle of violently enforced capitalism. And ignore ten thousands of starving kids daily, ongoing genocides throughout the world of indigenous people for psychopathic corporations.

What a wonderful, wonderful world.

The Group of 20 fear-mongering nations meets again. Nobody elected them. A lot of people don't want them meeting in their country. The secrecy around these talks smells like organised crime. No, it rather stinks like mafia.

Yet another liar

The promised change has not arrived, the torture camps still filled, yet nobody wants to say anything bad about Obama. By chance I picked up some snippets of one of his speeches, which made me quite speechless.


As for our auto industry, everyone recognizes that years of bad decision-making and a global recession have pushed our automakers to the brink. We should not, and will not, protect them from their own bad practices. But we are committed to the goal of a re-tooled, re-imagined auto industry that can compete and win. Millions of jobs depend on it. Scores of communities depend on it. And I believe the nation that invented the automobile cannot walk away from it.
Which makes me wonder, why has Obama so much faith in Germany?

Probably American presidents have to systematically tell lies about American grandezza, blatantly warping history. So what can we make out of Obama's promise to fix the auto industry? This little lie withdrew him from any responsibility. He cannot be blamed for Germany not bringing the solution. On the other hand, if he doesn't know that Karl Benz is attributed with the invention of the car, he appears to be brainwashed by americophile propaganda.

Change? As long as systems don't change, they function just the way they did before. Changing actors hardly changes any function. At some point a majority of people will come to this conclusion and start the changing the system instead of its representatives. Unless the prisonplanet is finished first.

Chemtrails on German TV

I know that the idea of chemtrails sounds a bit paranoid. Yet I noticed as well that most adults, as long as they don't professionally deal with cloud phenomena, perceive nature quite oblivious. After I heard about chemtrails, I simply started watching the sky more than before, and soon noticed strange celestial patterns.

The video below shows a meteorological computer simulation of the weather above Germany and the neighbouring countries. Just watch from the 0:28 to 1:02, focusing on the western border of Germany. Some snake-like trails appear, and look so weird that the weather man tries to explain them:

"Und dann haben wir noch etwas, was wir nicht als Regen oder Schnee identifizieren können - hier im Westen, diese Schlangenlinien. Da haben wahrscheinlich am Nachmittag über der Nordsee ein paar Flugzeuge, Militärflugzeuge, raus gebracht, und in etwa 5 bis 6 km Höhe, das hat mit Wetter so nichts zu tun."

Translation:
"And there is something else which we cannot identify as rain or snow - here in the west, these wiggly lines. These were most likely brought out by some planes, military planes above the North Sea, in about 5 to 6 kilometers altitude. That's completely unrelated to the weather."


Weather is a complex, chaotic feedback system, closely linked to climate. Aerial weather manipulation does not yet work perfectly predictable, however, it is deployed in various areas. It sounds quite bold to claim that artificial clouds that spread over 500 km, stretch about 10 km wide have no influence to the weather. And as far as I know, there is no war in Europe, so why can military planes some shit in the sky? And how did the weather man know that it were military planes?

Freedom and democracy can only exist without military and secret services.
