BOY, THE PROBLEMS RIGHT HERE IN RIVER CITY,
Or am I (Bush) in trouble or what? By Murph
It almost borders on the absurd. You and I as citizens can read about what is going on, with little or no direct experience and only be in awe and wonder at what these people in Washington are thinking. How can anybody be so wrong all the time on everything?
The Kurds, Israelis, Turks and the U.S. now have another problem. I am sure it is another example of ‘unforeseen consequences’. The Kurds and the Turks have been at it for a long time now, constant border clashes and they hate each other. The Kurds have Israeli people setting up oil infrastructure at the behest of the U.S. in a secrete agreement. The Kurds are making incursion across the border in Turkey. The Turks are sending all kinds of military stuff to the border. The Israelis are spying on the Kurds, noting where their military stuff is located and deployment of troops to give the information to the Turks. Now into this situation, the Kurds don’t like the Sunnis or the Shiites and the Kurds are sitting on a whole bunch of oil. Not only that, but the Kurds are not very fond of us either since we supplied the gas that Saddam used to gas them and with our blessings. The Turks don’t like the Israelis monkeying around with the oil the Kurds are supposed to be in control of. If the Turks do a military operation on the Kurds, the Israelis are in danger of being hurt or driven out and yet we want to keep the Turks on the side of the U.S. It appears that there most certainly will be some kind of Turkish military action on the Kurds and with the help of the Israelis. In fact, it has been reported that the Israelis have cut off any kind of retreat by the Kurds if that happens. Does this sound like a catch 22 situation for Bush? I wonder how he figures to pull his chess-nuts out of the fire on this one. If this didn’t have such dire consequences it would be a hoot. I did laugh when I first read about this, but now the humor escapes me.
On another front, the Greenland Ice cap is melting fast enough that it will be gone in 5 years, not the 500 that was originally predicted. Gosh, I wonder if Washington D.C. might actually be under water soon. Course, we might blow a couple of bridges and close off some highway escape routes and let them drown, but I guess that’s just wistful thinking. Sort of like the burlap sack and the pond way of solving problems.
But of course the really really big story on the news for that last couple of days is Paris Hilton.
And on the Home front, the economy. I got to admit that I really would like to know what the big boys are doing or planning on doing about that situation. This country and the rest of the world is awash in money (money? Really?), right now, that is called liquidity. It is driving incredible amounts of inflation, and not just in the U.S. If you haven’t been paying attention, food prices have gone up by 7% this year alone. That works out to about 15% if it keeps up for the year. I really wonder what the economic advisors to this administration are going to recommend when about 50 million retired people can’t buy food anymore. Us old farts can get real ornery when we get hungry or cold.
And, oh yeh, there is the price of fuels. Notice that the national average price of gas went down 9 cents lately? Just in time for the tourist season? Now that is unusual since normally it goes up. I thought our reserves were down and refinery capabilities were depressed for maintenance and the cost per barrel had gone up. Who is lying to us about what? According to what I read, there is no big influx of oil anywhere. And then we got the hurricane Gonu in the shipping lanes in the Gulf of Arabia. They don’t build infrastructure for hurricanes over there since hurricanes have never happened in that area before. Are we going to see $100 per barrel soon? Last analysis I read was that if it hits land and does much damage it will be no less than 18-20 days before things are back on line. That is a lot of interruption. I haven’t seen any damage reports as of this writing.
According to the news services, the Iraq parliament has not yet decided whether to take one or two months off for the hot part of the summer starting on July 1. I bet that has Bush tied in knots too. If them folks don’t get their act together then Bush is going to have to make a decision concerning why we are there at all. Of course we could bomb them some more, and Iran too while we are at it and just take over the oil fields and screw Russia, China and Europe.
And talking about oil, a little Michigan piece of news. The oil companies want to get the states to subsidize the reopening of the oil fields there that have at least half the oil that cannot be recovered unless a very large amount of money is invested in the newest CO2 state of the art oil recovery technology. But, they want the states involved to put up guarantees and the money for the infrastructure that involves capturing all the CO2 from polluting industries. According to the information I read, the total amount that could be recovered in two of the four states is around 11 billion barrels, about enough to make up our imports for 90 days. So, 11 billion divided by 12 million (the amount we import) is less than 100 days. Oh boy!
For those that are curious about this, the U.S. consumes about 20 million barrels of oil per day, approximately 25% of world production and which we import 60%, or about 12 million barrels per day. The current world production is about 84 million barrels per day.
Oh yes, one final thing. The terrorist plot for blowing up the fuel at Kennedy Air Port. That one is turning out to be a hard one to sell to a lot of the population. The experts say not even possible. The guys involved sure spent a lot of time being homeless too. I am sure they had access to what is needed to do the job. Yeah, right!!
So, I reckon Bush ol’ buddy has his plate full. All them decisions about stuff that he would really rather not have to deal with, after all, he has some wars to run and congress to keep buffaloed and a population to keep terrified and on his side, although that doesn’t seem to be doing very well lately. Reckon he will just have to put the boys in the basement on the problem of keeping people in line. Probably have to dream up another terrorist event to keep the wheels greased. Sure puts a crimp in having to be pleasant at state dinners and this is not even to mention vacation plans at the ranch.

Everything seems to be unraveling and deteriorating at every turn for poor old Bush. At this rate, he won't be able to order a snack from the White House kitchen without somebody telling him to get it himself. All the generals responsible for the plan to "liberate" Iraq and anybody who worked with Rumsfeld are gone. The British have given Tony Blair his walking papers. European nations are bringing criminal charges against CIA operatives who have been renditioning kidnapped prisoners on their soil. All the places in Africa who have oil are destabilized. South America is standing up to the IMF and freeing themselves. With all the challenges that need attending to, both foreign and domestic, we are trillions of dollars in debt, the military is over-extended, we are in the midst of a housing crash, and it's not looking good for either our dollar or our stock market. To say nothing about the fact that we might actually have reached peak oil, and then there's the climate change. And, for the next TWO YEARS we still have Bush at the helm, surrounded by his minions who all seem to have graduated from The Ponds Institute. The only Republican left standing with him will be Joe Lieberman.
As things continue to deteriorate, it becomes ever more and more important, I think, to reach out to each other and prepare. I read an article about how Cuba dealt with their oil depletion when we embargoed them. The government actually GAVE EVERYDODY generators! Not tax credits, not subsidy programs, but generators. They also gave the people electric rice cookers, fry pans and other small appliances that would reduce using energy inefficient stoves. They encouraged people to plant gardens in courtyards and rooftops. They built clinics within walking distance all over the country. Now they use so little oil, that they are planning to sell the oil that has been discovered off their coast rather than use it up as domestic consumption.
Anyway, my point is that we are going to have to localize and do it ourselves because the government can't handle it. When the contraction starts (and it has started), the rulers are going to look like Paris Hilton in terms of their ability to cope with reality. Hysterical and pathetic.

So this is how an Empire ends.
As Tainter noted, the more complex a society the less its resilence. Eventually a crisis or series of crisis will overwhelm its ability to cope. That seems to be starting to happen now.
Btw, I haven't been able to find any data to backup the claim that Greenland will melt in 5 years. My calculations, using the best data I could find, gave a worst case scenario of 15-25 years (depending on the initial assumptions). That's bad enough, but not as bad as 5 years. Does anyone have any?
Thanks.
Ras,
Freeacre and I frantically looked for where that information came from and can't refind it. It was in some kind of reference material that covered two subjects and Greenland was one of them.
We will keep looking and see if we can come up with it.
OK, ras, finally found the article with the reference to 5 years for the melt-off of Greenland:
http://www.thetruthseeker.co.uk/article.asp?ID=6702
If the link doesn't work, just go to Truthseeker and read the article entitled "Voice of the White House, June 8, 2007." I have not seen it verified anywhere else though.
Well, off to sleep. At least it won't be bugging me where in the heck we read that info. Jeesh!
Yeah, i read that. (Belgium posted a link to it on the last column.) But I can't very well pass the info along without data to back it up. And I'm not sure I'll believe it without data to back it up either. Aho, thanks!

Guess what guys George W is the good guy, he actually wants to try diplomacy against Iran, it is one of the two weapons he has left in his bag. This is very much to the chagrin of his veep who wants to try the other one and is now openly calling his boss a wimp to his face for not wanting to join in the fun of bombing the bastards.

Another bit of ticky-tacky that is unraveling around the intrepid leader’s feet is a report that US secret agents tried to smuggle explosives into the vicinity of the recent G8 summit In order to allegedly, pin a false flag op on the protesters.
There is a bit of overprinting on this one but it is still readable.

Ras, I Googled “Time Estimate for Melting of Greenland Ice Cap”, and from the articles I selected there were no hard time estimates. Apparently the state of the ice cap is analyzed by two satellites and without putting the links up, what they say is as follows. Most agree it is melting three times faster than expected, some scientists say five times and one or two say ten times. 70% of the melt water is from the east coast and 30% from other areas. The starting depth of the ice generally was three miles thick but no one at present is prepared to put a figure on when it will be all gone. Whether the Bushman knows something we don’t is another thing.

Good morning America. I looks as if the ‘will he or won’t he’ debate is back on the table again. Joint Chief of Staff Pete Pace is set for the chop, to be replaced by super hawk Admiral Michael Mullen. He was quoted recently as saying:
"The enemy now is basically evil and fundamentally hates everything we are -- the democratic principles for which we stand ... This war is going to go on for a long time. It's a generational war."
Just to recap on that – we are in a long war with evil people who hate our freedoms. Which dummy is sitting on which knee?
There is one very slim chance to avert disaster, call your Senator and tell him or her that you will make it your life’s mission to ensure that they do not get re-elected if they vote for this maniac.

It is not like Rense and Truth Seeker to engage in hyperbole but they appear to be amongst the few who are picking this up at the moment; Fars News; Al Jazeera and the Palestine Chronicle are all unusually silent. Perhaps they are adopting a wait and see approach. ATOL confirms the above but provides a different slant on the issue.

This is no longer an intellectual discussion anymore. It is depressing even from my side of the pond.
From Belgium,
Now for a swing in the opposite direction, this is a must read. The insider in the White House is telling it again in his own special way.
“Bush’s pet immigration bill was dumped, Putin has made a public fool out of him, and if Bush ever stops walking fast, Gonzales will be picking shit out of his nose for a week. Bush likes to surround himself with insignificant toadies like Congoleeza Rice who gives sycophancy a very bad name”.
“Kristol, posterboy for Likudists, once a great Bush supporter, now hates him because Divine Israel wants George to take out Iran and he can’t. Why can’t he? Because he has been told that if he does that, there will be mutiny in the military (and probably Congress) and it is not inconceivable that Bush’s head would be carried up and down Pennsylvania on a pike while thousands cheered”.

From Austin
It's behind a paywall, but from this article in Science Magazine a couple months ago:
Satellite data show that ice sheets can change much faster than commonly appreciated, with potentially worrying implications for their stability.
I think the 5-year remark in popular media was inspired by that article. But it's just some boring old science-y stuff, so pay no attention ... :^)
Austin,
The 5 year thing on the Greenland icecap we refound. Its statement was that if the PRESENT RATE OF INCREASE of melting continued, it would be gone in 5 years. Considering that the rate of increase of melting more than doubled in the last 5 years, that would make sense.
Yup that boring science stuff.
From Belgium,
Re boring stuff; the links that anon 9.59 put up seemed to be saying that the melting process is not entirely necessary for much of the ice to disappear. If some of the surface melt water can find its way into deep crevasses and somehow manage to reach the bedrock then this can lubricate the glacier over the surface. If enough surface water can get that far down then it can actually float the glacier. In that eventuality, not only will contact with the bottom be lost but also locking contact with the sides. Gravitational pressure from further back towards the source of the glacier will break up ice by attrition with the sides and once resistance is lost there will be nothing to prevent the glaciers from falling into the sea. It also says that scientists are now beginning to understand glacier dynamics.
Maybe the five year figure is a guess for the glaciers alone and maybe also once they disappear there will be nothing left to contain the summer melt water. This appears to be interesting new scientific speculation which is being shed onto a boring subject.
When i was a young sprout working in Alaska the summer would be in the nineties where i was building eco poop ponds for the inhabitants thereof, and although this has not much to do with the present discourse,i think it might be informational to someone with the different slant on some of lives ambiguities.
ok, on the road to nowhere Alaska there was a giant glacier, drivable to its face and in that face was a giant cave which one could walk into and surround oneself with total beautiful blue.
The crux of the matter is this, in summer with stores few and far between there was an acute shortage of , yep you guessed it , ICE!
For what you ask?? For the beer of course, the ice which was blue inside the glacier would turn clear once it was taken out of the tunnel, don't ask me why i do not know, anybody?
So here my buddies and i would load up all the ice we could manage into the back of a pickup truck and and under that mountain of ice? ..was the BEER!...it would last for a few days and always be used as an excuse to go for a drive into glacier land.
This is just to fucked up for people that love beer cooled by million year old ice chunks,
why this is not on lives main agendas?? i will never know i guess,
it just seems like the really important shit just gets stashed on the back page if its even in the works at all.

I KNEW this wopuld happen just as soon as they started talking about a Kurdistan redo!
Turkey's pissed at the Kurds, and they're STILL pissed at the Greeks! Turks have a BIG problem with letting shit go that happened ten generations back!!
I guess it has to do with their army getting laughed at for strutting around in pleated skirts, panty hose, and those slippers with the pom-poms on them! Culture shock indeed!
OOOOOPS!!!! stand corrected! It was the Greek Evzones that wor the skirts, panty-hose, and shoes with pompoms!
I hear that they were some seriously bad-ass dudes, and I don't doubt it! If you dressed me up like that, I'ld want to kill somebody too!

Google "Greek Evzones" just to see how lame this get-up really is!
lolo...Stoney in a skirt and pompoms...that would get even the Greeks running down the street in a panic.

Actually I believe it was an insideous ploy to cause the enemy to laugh themselves to death!
I don't doubt it is a very, VERY effective way to protect the President of Greece. Consider that you are an asassin out to snuff the Head Greek Honcho. You are heading to your objective, when you see one of these gomers come high-stepping by! Shit!! You'ld forget what you came for, and wander around aimlessly with all sorts of disturbing visions in your head! It would be a total mind-fuck!

Thank you for your reply. This information I am sending you is 6-7 years old, but the scientists still work and stand by their findings. Thus many European countries are more cautious in introducing GE agriculture and label food products containig GE giving consumers choice. I think it is somewhat strange that I live in the center of the city where bees are not in contact with agricultural fields and I am not noticing a decline, in fact the contrary is happening. My greatest respect to those who farm and for the hard choices they have to make to survive in business. Again thanks, I hope we find a solution soon. The German Television ZDF reported on Sunday May 21 that a German researcher found a gene transfer from genetically engineered rapeseed to bacteria and fungi in the gut of honey bees. Prof. Hans-Hinrich Kaatz from the Institut fur Bienenkunde (Institute for bee research) at the University of Jena experimented during the last three years with honey bees on an experimental field with transgenic rapeseed in Saxony, Germany.
The field trial was performed by AgrEvo, the rapeseed was engineered to resist the herbicide glufosinate (Liberty, Basta). Prof. Kaatz built nets in the field with the transgenic rapeseed and let the bees fly freely within the net. At the beehives, he installed pollen traps in order to sample the pollen loads from the bees' hindlegs when entering the hive.
This pollen was fed to young honey bees in the laboratory. (Pollen is the natural diet of young bees which need a high protein diet). Then Prof.Kaatz took the intestine out of the young bees and spread the contents on growth medium to grow the microorganisms.
He probed the microorganisms for the pat-gene, the gene that confers resistance to glufosinate. In some bacteria and also in a yeast hefound the pat-gene. This indicates that the gene from the genetically engineered rapeseed was transferred in the bee gut to the microbes.
Comment by PSRAST
The transfer of genes from GE crops to bacteria has potentially problematic consequences. Mae-Wan Ho has pointed out that there is genetic material in GE crops that is designed to counteract the mechanisms that prevent foreign DNA to attach to the chromosomes, see "Horizontal transfer of viral and bacteria DNA facilitated by GE organisms?".
This group of scientists warns that the spread of such genetic material to bacteria may promote the development of completely new strains of bacteria by promoting DNA transfer between unrelated strains of bacteria. They suggest that this might already have contributed to the remarkable increase of new and dangerous bacterial strains like the E.Coli 157 where Coli has taken up genes from an unrelated bacterium (the dysenterium bacterium Shigella). The result has been a bacteria that causes serious hemmorrhagic gastrointestinal disease that has been lethal in several cases.
If these scientists are right, Bacteria and fungi in the bee gut might become one such source of new diseases which might spread to humans through the venoms.
This is one of many examples of the increasing number of unexpected and potentially serious consequences of genetic engineering of crops. This kind of gene transfer is completely irreversible and uncontrollable. This means that if it turns out that it may generat serious problems in the ecology of microbes, there is no known means of stopping it. This is one of several examples of the kind of potential problems that made us demand a global moratorium on the release of GE organisms, see our Declaration. Jaan Suurküla M This is from a European site www.PSRAST.org (Physicians and Scientist for the Responsible Application of Science and Technology)
Pretty scary to consider, eh?
Thanks Rock,
have been following this bullshit for some time and it just goes to show the level that humans will go to to commit the world,out Mother Earth to slow suicide, anyone with one with one piece of intelligence would realize that the incredible balance of our home must not be messed with.
We as a tribe walk the gentle red path in which we leave as little mark on our mother as possible.
This morning i walk onto the back porch and a sweet rain began to fall, and as the sun rose a giant double rainbow formed to the east as birds sang and the new day had begun.
we are thankful Great Sprit for this day of planting seeds into out mother to bring them into being in which to feed her children, and to witness the birth of creation.

From Belgium,
Here is another Duncan O’Finioan type story (Project Camelot) which has recently emerged. This one concerns someone called Mike Gadbow who claims he was, until very recently under the influence of the CIA’s MKULTRA program and was likely being recruited to carry out the next big atrocity. He claims to have been a very good friend of Tim McVeigh of the Oklahoma City Bombing fame and was recruited by the same people. Again there is no concrete evidence linking anyone to anything but more than enough circumstantial evidence with names being named, to stitch a story together.
The article is written in the so called ‘left hand’, (conversational) style and sometimes it is hard to put all the characters together in relation to each other.
Now, he claims, his mind is slowly being put back together by a ‘healing’ doctor and is making it his mission to establish links between the 1996 WTC attack; the Oklahoma City Bombing and 11 Sept 2001.
Make of this article what you will.

Totally agree with all of that except for your use of the word suicide. I guess that was the kind of understatement which I often fall into.
SATS,
the unraveling of our most profound and beautiful Mother Earth brings one to question the most basic nature of mankind, which to me appears to be this, we are sleep walkers,the awareness of our own existence is lost do to the toxic nature of our unatural environment, which to me includes almost everything.
The deep psychological sickness that pervades the minds of the two leggeds is almost unbelievable, and would be laughable if it were a joke to be told at a council fire,however this is not to be, at least not yet.
The pure and unadulterated destruction of our home is an accident?
I watch my blood brother in the last stages of cancer and the daily progress of his existence which includes cigarettes, alcohol and some times a little processed food that i would not feed to a hog. Now this is a person who when tested scores in the top ten percentile of the folks on this planet, what happened to him and continues to this day is exactly a microcosm of what is happening to the world, is it not? or close enough, and as i watch him choose.? to die of this horrible disease amid an enviroment that approximates one of the most cleanest and purest places available on this earth,..i have to wander, is this not suicide?
When cure is available and is tossed aside? What on gods green earth will change this?
He speaks and says he is not afraid of death, so is he afraid of life? Is his life so filled with fear that death by the conscious polluting of his sacred body preferable to healing that which makes us sick?
To me this is the crux of our dilemma,we know we are killing our individual bodies and that knowledge bleeds over into the uncaring way we treat our mother.
i am not saying this from a soap box, and have no room to criticise, having been a smoker of tobacco for 18 years and a drunk for many many years and only recently pulled away from all the poison that surrounds me, which in itself is no mean feat,this also has the bonus of seeing things in a different light, of actually being able to feel the earth beneath my bare feet and being able to appreciate drinking water that has not been methodically poisoned by the hand of man,and learning to live in harmony with our mother,whom wants nothing more from us (my opinion) then to enjoy the bounty of her creation.
So this leads me to wonder, what in the fuck happened to us? Suicide, (the act of intentionally taking one's own life;act of destroying one's own interests;one who commits suicide) i would love to hear from someone at this council about how to repair that which has been done, either to us or by us and will make us wholesome human beings, walking this earth with love in our hearts for all living things including our selfs of course.
i feel the spring rain falling lightly on my face and the milk of mother earth softens the sharpness of life.
Peace my brothers and sisters,may this day bring you love.

Mf,
This is a question I have long been pondering this as well. The only conclusions I have come to thus far is that our current society functions much like an addiction. Before any addict can begin recovery he/she has to admit that there is a problem. Most don't do this until they literally hit rock bottom. I think this will need to be true of the current society as well. While individuals may wake up, I think humanity as a whole will have to run head on into the limits of growth before we will change. And then the choice will be either change and live or stay the course and die. But a lot of bad things will happen when we hit those limits.
From Belgium,
The animal kingdom is by and large, true to type. Humankind seems to have been allocated more varied hues of personality and within these hues are some darker strains of colours. But why should you not trust someone who has given you no reason to be suspicious?
What started as an experiment became a game; the game became a scam; the scam became an obsession and like all obsessions it has to be satisfied by feeding off itself to greater and greater degrees. When all that can be consumed is consumed the lights of the world will gradually go out until only a few will be illuminated but will the results of their addiction bring them happiness. Who will be around to show them the beauty of a flower or a day break or the overpowering silence of an empty landscape? Who will write their songs?
Unable to help himself,
is it the broken-hearted soul
who cannot face another day
of unrealized potential,
the ugliness and emptiness
we bartered for designer comforts
