Present case numbers for the ?K? variant Super-Flu don't justify the hype, says Dr David Livermore. Perhaps it's the media lust for fear porn, or perhaps the Government's fear of the strike, but it's not a Super-crisis.

Iran / USA / Letters / God / Guantanamo / the price of Oil

category international | anti-war / imperialism | other press author Thursday May 11, 2006 22:16author by gurggle. Report this post to the editors

In the last week the Iranian regime has sent 2 letters to the USA, a state which like it is ruled by God Freaks, and also like it is plausibly credited with promoting the most anti-zionism in the world.

It has been a long time since anything as simple as an 8 page letter sent from one "religous nutter" to another could excite comments or be included by the soothsayers of Capital in the reasons for the brief lull and then spike on Oil prices this week.

Actually it might be the first time anything as simple as a letter caused that...
Dr. Mahmoud (Ahmadinejad / Ahmadinezhad) is the "democratically" elected president of the Islamic republic of Iran, a state which is comitted to the destruction of Israel, the development of Nuclear power, and generally getting up the Yankee nose. George Bush is a man who doesn't read newspapers, uses his illiteracy and mal-adroit speech as a propaganda tool, and consistently involves Jesus (PBUH) in all his decision making.

Guantanamo Bay is the most obvious and public sign of US disregard for international law, the place they bothered to tell us about, where over 500 people are held without trial, and experimented on. Its a really scary place. Its so scary that for years we didn't ask questions about it, and its so horrific that Gary Mc Kinnon who used his IT know-how to access the USA defense computers to find out where UFO's really alien or just natural phenomona today is reported as being scared he will be sent there, if extradited.

The 8 page letter sent by the Iranian president to Bush may be read here in its entirety. http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article12984.htm http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article12984.htm
& it was cut and pasted to them from the French daily "Le Monde" : iwho have archived in their media section, for which you need a password.

A second letter has been sent it seems, from someone with more theological qualifications (spiritual leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei) to the USA, & interestingly according to the Israeli Ynet, " includes 'hopeful signs' for launching negotiations" href="http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-3249455,00.html"

Here you will find the supposed list of over 500 men who are held at
USA gulag detention centre
Guantanamo bay.
Cuba.

its not in the phone book. But it shares its compound with a hospital :-
US Naval Hospital (GTMO) PSC 1005, Box 36, FPO, AE 09593-0136 .USA
You might like to send them postcards or woolly blankets.

The USA which had the previous day dismissed the letter from the Iranian presidency as "a pisstake" has refused to close its only openly recognised gulag prison, where it can isolate, indoctrinate, brainwash, operate on, cyborg, experiment on prisoners & maybe even turn them into remote control suicide bombers.

I really believe that if His Excellency Mahmood Ahmadi-Najad, president of the Islamic Republic of Iran, had an easier name for westerners to remember (such as Sadam, or Arafat, or Nassar, or the Ayatolah) he would now be a household name. As it is, we haven't even formalised the versions of his name which we see in print in the West. So we read and hear on our radios, and watch on our TV's reference to the Iranians . This week the Irish Times saw fit to publish a syndicated article by a US thinktanker and "insider" of US foreign policy on the "threat to Israel" posed by a hypothetical mad mullah Iran led by himself the un-memorable.

In his short career since winning the elections for president of his country, Mr Ahmadinejad has really scored big time on the geo-politics front. More than once have I seen him on the pages of my "free commercial advertising based throw away newspapers". I've read about him being put through "psycho-analysis" I've seen him put through "facial analysis" (a sort of physiognomy) I've seen his entry at wikipedia grow and grow -
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mahmoud_Ahmadinejad & move from a little "stub" to a lengthy article now "protected from vandalism". I am, as we all are, aware that the capitalist-military-industrial order of the USA would quite happily commit itself to an invasion of (or) "regime change" in Iran. I suspect that it would give a Democrat Presidency more perverse kicks, since it was a Democrat President (Carter) who hastened his departure from the White House because of the Islamic Revolution's ability to outperform the CIA.

"he Iranians"are indeed playing very good geo-politics, very very good "Islamic politics" and really quite brilliant "US politics". If within the remaining 175 days available they succesfully tendered for management of Bolivia's hydrocarbon resource exploitation, they'd be on front of Time magazine by 2007 with the title "masters of psy-op".

I want to ask on this open publishing space ;- we consider the tone being used by His Excellency President of the Iranian Republic Dr. Mahmoud (Ahmadinejad / Ahmadinezhad).

Its not classical. Its not intellectual. Its not diplomatic. its not posh. It doesn't even appear too clever. = Its excellent global politics. Is this a presidential letter? or a statement of faith? or as condoleenza Rice all to quickly seemed to dismiss it a "piss-take"?

I'd like us to wonder these question instead of just leaving them for the Stealth Eagle of Jesus + and I'd like us to wonder what happens to person's mind when they are handcuffed, put in goggles and earphones. What would happen to you? Would it matter what music they played you? Would your drug intake matter much? Would it matter if there were little TV screens on the inside of the goggles? Do you think Jesus wanted that? Well it doesn't matter, Jesus is the only thing mad fundamentalist Christians and Muslim have in common and Jews most certainly don't.
