The President, the Pope, and the Pentagon have said recently that global climate change is the greatest threat to national security (Blind Willie McTell News - 5).
The War Whore bosses over at MSNBC (e.g. Ed Show, Hardball, Morning Joe) freaked out.
Big Ed was going to do a thingy on the Gulf because of global warming (high in Australia today is 111F) induced climate change being more of a threat than terrorists (which made the amygdala of Ed's boss hog go hysterical).
So, War Whores, Spielberg's latest film (opens legs wide) is what the presstitute bosses at MSNBC are now doing instead (cf. War is the Highway 61 of the 1%, Is War An Art or Is War A Disease?, The Goldilocks War Propaganda: Syria is Just Right, Another Spring of Whores of War).
Remember that their Johns invaded and destroyed Libya (MOMCOM And The Sins of Libya, 2) to bring it freedom (America’s Deadliest Export: Democracy), hence the mid-east curse "may the bushies bring you democracy."
Libya is the same country where the warmongers brought democracy and peace recently (before ISIS was created by propaganda and war); and it is that same place (except that now "it is all democratic and stuff") where ISIS is said to have just beheaded 25 Christians (which really pissed off General Jesus, a.k.a. "GJ", Hypothesis: The Cultural Amygdala - 4).
GJ says those countries must wait in line, until after the peace generating bombing is done, before their souls get laid:
The Lord is a warrior and in Revelation 19 it says when he comes back, he's coming back as what? A warrior. A mighty warrior leading a mighty army, riding a white horse with a blood-stained white robe ... I believe that blood on that robe is the blood of his enemies 'cause he's coming back as a warrior carrying a sword.(Gun-Toting Jesus Will Lead 'Mighty Army', emphasis added). Of course, GJ added that "patience is a virtue, so don't despair 'cause we will virtue the hell out of you in due time."
And I believe now - I've checked this out - I believe that sword he'll be
carrying when he comes back is an AR-15.
"Jesus is coming with an AR-15" - U.S. General
Now I want you to think about this: where did the Second Amendment come from? ... From the Founding Fathers, it's in the Constitution. Well, yeah, I know that. But where did the whole concept come from? It came from Jesus when he said to his disciples 'now, if you don't have a sword, sell your cloak and buy one.'
I know, everybody says that was a metaphor. IT WAS NOT A METAPHOR! He was saying in building my kingdom, you're going to have to fight at times. You won't build my kingdom with a sword, but you're going to have to defend yourself. And that was the beginning of the Second Amendment, that's where the whole thing came from. I can't prove that historically and David [Barton] will counsel me when this is over, but I know that's where it came from.
And the sword today is an AR-15, so if you don't have one, go get one. You're supposed to have one. It's biblical.

ReplyDeleteWar, war, war. Back when Viet Nam was the war du jour, we hippies had had enough and we'ren't gonna do that n' more. So that war ended due in at least some part because of the fuss kicked up by a bunch of the civilian population protesting in the streets day and night. Well the hippies got absorbed into the culture afterward and sold out to make a buck, like ever'body else and now - here we are. The hippies were right, but left, leaving no one to give a care.
ReplyDeleteIt should be interesting when conscription comes back into vogue. Sure, right now there aren't any good jobs and the small rural towns kids get sucked in to "serving their country" (which translates to "get served by their country" - into the maw of war - you know, cannon fodder). But once the actual wars we're waging meet the kind of resistance that all the previous ones since Nam engender (meaning we continue to lose the actual war, but look at all the profits the military/industrial complex makes!) - especially in the Ukraine - we'll need all the boots on the ground we can muster. No one actually cares whether or not we win, we just have to put on a good show!
Reminds me of the Country Joe and the Fish song:
