tonie61's Journal (138)

Sunday November 16, 03
01:29 PM - Brainwashing the red staters.
One of the techniques used to break down a captive’s emotional stability is to continually lie. In the day, Simon and Garfunkle had a song in which the lyric, “The pattern never alters until the rat dies” applies to the Dubya administration‘s technique of brainwashing his own citizens, particularly the red staters. They are the group who would be most susceptible to this procedure, as they identify with the aggressor, big brother 43, their soul mate, the “leader of the free world who doesn’t do nuances”.

How many red staters remember that, just in the end of September 2003, Dubya made no concessions to the UN, as he pretended to ask for their help? In this UN speech Dubya flipped them off regarding the core issue, the thorny problem of a timetable for the handover of power from the occupation forces to a sovereign Iraqi government. "This process must unfold according to the needs of Iraqis, neither hurried nor delayed by the voices of other parties," Mr. Bush said, giving a diplomatic jab to both the French and the Germans.

Herr big brother 43 made it clear that even though the United States is trying to secure military assistance and troops from other countries for Iraq, the US will be done Dubya’s way. US forces in Iraq will not be placed under UN command. The Iraqi economy will not be run by UN bureaucrats. The US will decide when the Iraqis can elect its own government, and this government must match the US requirements. “Operation Iraqi Freedom” really means that they will become a democracy that suits the US design, even if it is not what the people of Iraq want. Doesn’t seem to be fair does it? Every sentient being realized that this was a scam by the little Furher, but since Rove controls FOX, the GOP controls the 2004 election.

What is happening now, just a month and a half later?

Herr Furher’s Iraqi Viceroy Bremer has been pulled into Washington for meetings with Dubya. The latest United Nations Security Council resolution on Iraq calls on the IGC to provide the Security Council by Dec. 15 with a timetable and a plan for drafting a constitution for Iraq and for holding elections. “UN Resolution 1511 calls for the Iraqi Governing Council (IGC) to accelerate the process of setting up a constitutional track,” said Dan Senor, the spokesman for Bremer, who accompanied him to Washington. “As that deadline approaches we are intensifying consultations with the IGC and within our own government about the best path forward.”

Bush apparently is taking the stance the UN has always required and the stance the Democrats in Congress insisted upon. The Democrats were lied to by Dubya at the time of US Congressional Iraq resolution, but that is par for the Dubya course. The psychotic part of this is that Dubya and his PNAC boys won’t admit that they changed their policy, because doing so would cost the GOP votes. Our soldiers die, Iraqis “collateral damage” statistics sky rocket, but Dubya, the liar, who return “honor and dignity to the white house” skates his way through a pretense of being a decent man, sacrificing truth for a few red state votes.

I’ll briefly describe some of additional organizations and vile characters currently in use by the GOP, or is it easier just to refer to them as current day Nazis? A full rendering can’t be attempted due to the limits of computer technology, as even the hugest super computer would not possess enough memory to contain it all.

Remember the Orwellian Office of Disinformation, which was purportedly disbanded? How do we know it was? All we have is Dubya’s word for it, and who could trust him? I can predict the future and before long the GOP will lose its monopoly of the media as well as the government. On that fine day Dubya will be brought before a Congressional Investigation and he’ll mumble that before it was disbanded that it provided too much bad data and he wasn’t in the loop, and that apparatus did the loose cannon, Ollie North routine. He’ll put on his phony southern drawl and tell untruths about the Office of Disinformation being the entity to blame for our current mess, not him. It was allegedly developed to confuse foreign powers, but Dubya isn’t up on the finer distinctions such as that.

Maybe the Office of Disinformation has been dispersed, but someone is still trying to distort reality. On November 12, 2003 the CIA report regarding how poorly the occupation of Iraq is progressing was brought to the public’s attention despite the efforts of the administration to cover-up. The CIA and the White House refused even to confirm the existence of the report, which was first disclosed by The Philadelphia Inquirer. Reminds me of the Pentagon Papers being suppressed by “Tricky Dick”. Who knows what else they have covered up?

Why would they subvert the report from being known to the public? Dubya has told us everything is going swell, hasn’t he? “It says that this is an insurgency, and that it is gaining strength because Iraqis have no confidence that there is anyone on the horizon who is going to stick around in Iraq as a real alternative to the former regime,” one American official said.

Among other concerns raised by the C.I.A. report, the officials said, was the danger that Iraqi Shiite Muslims, who represent a majority of the country’s population, could soon join minority Sunni Muslims in carrying out armed attacks against American forces. The report also described what it portrayed as major obstacles to efforts by the United States and American-led Iraqi forces to halt a small but steady infiltration of foreign fighters from Syria and Iran.
         
This was first predicted by all of the accredited intelligence agencies prior to the war. This will just get worse. Way back on March 21, 2003 Gwynne Dyer’s article “Aftermath: SCIRI” gives us some recent history, “Bush 41 incited both the Kurds of northern Iraq and the Shia of the south to revolt against Saddam Hussein at the end of the 1991 Gulf War. But both groups felt betrayed when U.S. forces did not support them.

The Kurds managed to hold on to most of the traditional Kurdish areas in the north and have been free from Saddam’s control for the past dozen years. But the Shia in the south were massacred and utterly crushed. Thousands of Iraqi Shia fled across the frontier into Iran, where the Supreme Council for the Islamic Revolution (SCIRI) in Iraq took responsibility for their lives.”

This article stated then that, “SCIRI’s leaders are moving back into Iraq right now. Two years from now, they will either be ruling Iraq or struggling to break away from it (and take most of the oil with them).”

Remember that Rummy said the US wouldn’t accept a democracy in which the Iraq Shiite, the group which comprises almost 80% of the Iraq population, gains control? Guess what is happening with the new plan to speed up the process of Iraq becoming a sovereign nation?

The IGC’s performance was a main theme of the discussions at the White House, several officials said. Among the options considered in the White House meetings, officials said, was whether to hold national elections to select delegates to a constitutional convention, a step favored by the Shiite majority in Iraq but viewed with misgivings by other religious and ethnic groups.

All of this speed to give Iraq a role in its own security and forming a government it could sustain has come abruptly with no transition. Why? The “moral clarity” guy couldn’t have an ulterior motive, could he?

Heading into an election year, Mr. Bush also has his own domestic political considerations. Reflecting the impatience even within the president’s own party at the pace of progress in creating a viable Iraqi government, the Republican chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Richard G. Lugar of Indiana, told reporters on Tuesday that the members of the IGC “aren’t doing their job.” At a Veterans Day ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery Bush said the United States was “a nation at war” and cast the loss of life in Iraq and in the struggle against terrorism as painfully necessary to protect the country and what it stands for.

He mumbled, while staring impatiently at the teleprompter, “Young Americans have died in liberating Iraq and Afghanistan. “The loss is terrible. It is borne especially by the families left behind. But in their hurt and in their loneliness, I want these families to know your loved one served in a good and just cause.”

Remember that all of this started because of lies Dubya told the US. These lies didn’t work with the world and the UN, but our disinterested populace bought them hook line and sinker. Douglas Feith, a protégé of Richard Perle, the former chairman of Rumsfeld’s Defense Policy Board (DPB) who stands at the center of the neo-conservative foreign policy network in Washington, was in charge of another purportedly defunct GOP atrocity, the Office of Special Plans (OSP). Feith is alleged to have collected - often with the help of the neo-conservatives’ favorite Iraqi exile, Ahmed Chalabi - and “cooked” the most alarmist pre-war intelligence against Saddam Hussein and then “stovepiped” it to the White House via Rumsfeld and Vice President Dick Cheney, unvetted by the intelligence agencies. This abomination became so important during the run-up to the Iraq war when every credible intelligence agency discarded everything these exiled liars for pay said. By the way, Ahmed Chalabi is now on the Iraq Governing Council and he is renowned for disagreeing with his US cronies in effort to consolidate his power in Iraq. For thugs, turn around is fair play, and Ahmed Chalabi, as well as the PNAC boys never saw an ethical dilemma they wouldn’t exploit.

The saddest truth is that this was not necessary. As American soldiers massed on the Iraqi border in March and diplomats argued about war, an influential adviser to the Pentagon received a secret message from a Lebanese-American businessman: Saddam Hussein wanted to make a deal.

Iraqi officials, including the chief of the Iraqi Intelligence Service, had told the businessman that they wanted Washington to know that Iraq no longer had weapons of mass destruction, and they offered to allow American troops and experts to conduct a search. They even offered to hand over a man accused of being involved in the World Trade Center bombing in 1993 who was being held in Baghdad. The Iraqis pledged to hold elections.

The messages from Baghdad, first relayed in February to an analyst in the office of the afore-mentioned Feith were part of an attempt by Iraqi intelligence officers to open last-ditch negotiations with the Bush administration through a clandestine communications channel, according to people involved.

The messages raised enough interest that in early March, that the afore-mentioned Perle, met in London with the Lebanese-American businessman, Imad Hage, but nothing came of it as the it would have interfered with the PNAC boys’ plan of US hegemony.

It wasn’t the only Iraq attempt at averting the war either, but the PNAC boys rebuffed them all.

This is typical GOP smoke and mirrors a classic misdirection of the magnitude that Houdini would envy.

George W. Bush is a sociopath, a person who has no conscience. It is clearly evident that this is true as more than 50 times Rumsfeld, his authorized expert of WMD, approved missions likely to vaporize at least 30 innocent people. These plans mutilated at least 1,500 people by unstoppable high-tech weaponry crashing down on them without warning, without the slightest chance of escape. Reports today estimate the count as being over 30,000 innocent Iraqis casualties.

He is also a serial liar, a privileged frat boy, whose vaunted “moral clarity” leads to his self proclaimed “leader of the free world who doesn’t do nuances” moniker, as well as being a puppet dangling at the whims of his PNAC masters. Some veterans of Bush 41 think that the neocons, the ghouls in PNAC, packaged their rabid desire for US hegemony so well that it appealed to Bush 43's born-again sense of divine mission and to his desire to achieve immortality by transforming the Middle East. Maybe they are right ... or maybe Dubya was so lazy that the first ideas that were thrust on him by Cheney he accepted, rather than have to think for himself.

In Mosul Iraq on the 15th of November seventeen soldiers died when guerrillas downed two U.S. helicopters just hours after a faster timetable for self-rule was unveiled which Washington hoped would pacify Iraqi resentment.

This is the pattern of manipulation used in the psychological experiment. Dubya’s PNAC boys offer the rats, in this case disinterested US red staters, optimistic news. Remember Dubya’s latest trend of positive spin on Iraq tragedies, what is that other than positive reinforcement? They also use negative reinforcement in this Pavlovian testing. The red staters mouths drool with hope when Dubya tells them all is well. If that doesn’t work his Machievalian oriented political master, Herr Rove, figures out a way to jolt them with an electric shock of negative stimuli. How very evil the current GOP are as they are happily performing psychological experiments against his own people to assure himself of their vote!

Our brainwashed red staters are supporting their silly soul mate. They can identify with his lack of intellectual curiosity. His Iraq occupation, which the rest of the world realizes to be a “Mission Failure“ has hoodwinked too many of them. Their Commander-in-Chief, the successful AWOL fly-boy, told them that all major combat operations were over, and he wouldn’t lie, would he? If they think he can lie to him about one thing, then they will start doubting more of his statements. They want it easy and becoming aware of the truth that would cause them too much emotional stress and intellectual effort.

"The liberty of a democracy is not safe if the people tolerate the growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger than their democratic State itself. That, in its essence, is Fascism — ownership of government by an individual, by a group or by any controlling private power."
