I hear about impeachment a lot...

I hear about impeachment a lot...

(I'm feeling contemplative)

I hear about impeachment a lot...

Impeachment, impeachment, impeachment...

I anticipated some "terrorist-attacks" after the president douche was elected and amongst the first things he did was to kick out a Russian diplomat from the US and stop buying their oil, not for economical reasons, but for nationalistically selfish reasons. Not for the good of any country, as the lack of good will hurts us all. Then he started his pot-inebriated press conferences and speeches. I never thought he'd make it that far.

My birthday in 2003 was memorable. Not because I had reason to celebrate, but because I had reason to fear despair.I watched as Americans on the media and news, regardless of class and color, closed their fists and vented some of the most ignorant and blatantly mindless remarks I have ever heard. In my entire life of three decades. They seemed so emotional. They always do. As if they had the right to complain about disasters that shrivel in comparison with worldwide atrocities. Has any other country invaded and occupied another like this without proof? I mean going across the globe to kill people who had admittedly nothing....NOTHING to do with the heart-wrenching incident. Nothing at all. And they're dead now.

If we set aside from the soldiers that play video games of killing people between the patrols, and the ones who went to quench their thirst for blood and violence, and even the ones firing from tanks with rock music in the speaker systems for primal excitement....if we set aside them, then we still have the blind masses, with mantras taken directly from the multimedia. "Stay the course" Did anybody say that on national TV more than once a year, before 2003? Was "surge" used except as a business English term for "hike", before 2003? Was it? Was it really?

I was ignorant in 1999. I still believed that democracy was alive. That the US was ahead of many countries in terms of elections. That was almost ten years ago. The Internet started its boom in -95, with Internet Explorer. Everybody knew and agreed that Netscape was superior. But the Microsoft crap still kept pouring out for free, convincing the virgin market that junk was best.I didn't pay attention, because the choice was so obvious. To the world. It was obvious to everyone. There was no question about it. And after hearing the verdict like receiving it from a French figure skating judge, everybody was baffled. Dumbfounded is a good word here. Bush became president.

Stupid speeches, a laughing stock in the global arena, impotent threats....a "terrorist-attack", all as expected, but then....war. Real war. Against....who? What??? For WHAT???!!! U.N. being a joke as always, but then....WMD, hunt for Hussein, national debts growing, soldiers killed for nothing -not even political illusions, Guantanamo Camp....in CUBA...had to read about that to understand what the fuck that was about, read about Latin-American countries and the fading CIA influences, about women's movements in India and Africa, about increased stability in Europe and Asia...

I allowed myself to become optimistic, and was shot down in disbelief in 2004. Him? Again? WTF? That weed-smoking dimwit is at it again? Not until the congress stripped him of domestic power, did the gun toting rednecks and crying victims of 9/11 & Iraq, actually settle down. Emotional. Through it all. Sure I remember. 11:45 on a Tuesday. Sure. I remember the assassination of the States minister of my former country. He was a great man. Sure, I remember that. 7/7? Yeah, that too. Train bombing in Spain? Yeah...I could go on.

Have I shed a single tear over that shit? Does it matter? Does it matter if I start yelling and having a tantrum? Would that make you identify with me somehow, you think? Would that keep my mind from the facts and history and eventually the prevention of history? What do you think? What do YOU think?

Do you? DO you think? Are relieved to able to turn on that TV when you come home? Are you able to hide your lack of knowledge behind people who are ignorant by choice? To numb yearning for knowledge, so that it doesn't stir. So that the emotions don't come back to haunt you. So that you don't have to be ashamed of the nationalistic spirit, disguised as "patriotism", and be able to join and sympathize with like-minded people. There is comfort in being part of a group. Especially when there are so many people who don't agree, who don't get as blindly emotional, who condemn you for reacting the way you do. People outside the US. Well, maybe not the Canadians. They're usually quite nice about things. And the Mexicans....well, many of them have actually joined in. They are a part of the whole machinery. We have come a long way from compulsory military duty.

Imagine that. Being able to join the army, before being able to legally drive. Being able to shoot a gun, for ones country, freedom, and the soldier next to you...before you can enter a voting booth, or buy out. EU is a fucking joke when it comes to preventing war. The UN is a joke that has been told a thousand times. Mind-numbingly lame and...I just wrote a double note. Mind-numbingly boring and pathetic, is what I wanted to say.
Belgium. On the map; still "neutral" what ever that means. Sweden too. "Neutral"....but still selling weapons to Indonesia, Eritrea...and many others. Hell, even Norway is manufacturing high-tech weapons, but at least they never claimed to be "neutral". Who's next? Switzerland? If they choose sides, that will be the end of me.

Ethnic cleansing. Rwanda. Yugoslavia. I still remember parts of Yugoslavia. So fucking embarrassing.

Waco. Rage Against The Machine. Aum. Kobe Earthquake. Being drafted. Bubble burst. Just remembering some bits and pieces.

The nineties weren't all that bad. I remember when the "free trade zones" were created during the Clinton administrations. Closed factories, rampant outsourcing, IT-bubble, prices pushed down, recycling and global awareness increased, Internet boomed....Yeah. I remember that. Amazon.com....yeah....

Same thing happened in Japan. Chinese products were allowed in, despite the increasing unemployment, plunging economy and the utter lack of quality. The 100?-shop was created. Chinese junk started flooding in and homeless people started appearing here and there, mostly unemployed people.Imagine that. 127million people in a space the size of California....with 75% of that space unavailable due to volcanoes, mountainous terrain. So with 127million people crammed in a space 25% of California, they made more robots to replace people, for rationalizing and saving money. Same idea behind outsourcing to China and now India and South East Asia. The people of Japan? Well, they got unemployed of course, but they were still given money to spend, in order to buy the cheap emerging products and the hell with pensions and the banking system. Does it sound familiar? In Japan, cash is still king. It can't be overprinted. Credit cards are not used as much and purchases are small and few, although prices might be high. The value of money is so different in each country.

The taxes are increasing in order to take care of the people that used to be cared for by the children. Detachment. In best cases, the children stay with their parents 'cause they're too lazy to work, or incompetent, and their parents are too rich, too soft, and counterproductively pampering their young to the brink of starved weakness. Spiritually, mentally, physically. Money saved on rationalization, is recirculated as tax and subsidies to help people who are now too passive, unemployed or uneducated. Falling literacy. Still sounds familiar?

Yup. I remember that. When the economic balance scale was tweaked and leveled. I remember that. I liked Clinton for that. For creating unemployment in some rich countries and feeding the money to the poor, despite undermining the status quo. Do you remember that? Economies around the world were booming. War was kept to a minimum. Iron curtain fell, Berlin wall fell, West Germany struggling to absorb and adopt East Germany, former Soviet troops pulling out the last men from Easter Europe and a drunk Yeltsin posed no threat. Everybody busy suppressing the Middle East, so that Latin America and some African countries got breathing room. South East Asia started to get attention. Thailand opened its borders for tourism and successfully so.

Do you remember that? Compared to the Cold War and the Iran-Iraq war with lingering reminders of Cambodia, and constant updates on the CIA mischief in Central American and Latin America, I thought the Clinton era was good. Comparatively. I have little to compare with.

But....despite some bad and some good events....I always thought: "what is all the fuss about?" OJ Simpson? Lewinsky??? We have a good thing going here and the media is taking pop shots at that??? And the media....CNN...once so highly acclaimed through the war, became the most trusted news source. The internet was still too young back then.

When I was a kid, I always LOVED to watch the documentaries from BBC. The footage, the cinematography, the sound effects. And my hero; David Attenborough. Still one of my biggest heroes in the world. I came to realize that CNN had become a propaganda machine and other "news" networks started popping up as mainstream. It was not until 2001, that I realized that even BBC, the most trusted news source of MY generation....had failed. Not as miserably as others....but they had been compromised. Irreversibly.

Still though. The first documentary that I saw about the truth behind 9/11 was by the BBC.It, along with the ever so childish Michael Moore, started a snowball, that still continues through hell. Everybody knows the truth. They may not admit it, nor understand it, or even agree with it....but the truth has been told, and there are still masses....(25%?) of people who still keep humming and their hands over their eyes. They know it though. They may have to live their whole life in denial, but they know. For all the mistakes being made, but astonishingly for all the mistakes being admitted....ADMITTED!!!....they should be put to sleep....I mean, justice. When I say "they" I mean mostly the politicians and corporate swine. Mostly

Putting aside those fervent voters who admittedly made an error of judgment, especially the second time in 2004, those manipulative lobbyists, media brokers, marketing people, political puppets, corporate swine, the list is long....putting aside those, I feel that publicly interesting responsibility falls on the leaders in government. Those people who cannot be easily killed or maimed by the public.I don't want to lower myself to the level of some obsessive imbeciles who instigated and perpetuated war, but I am starting to understand the feeling of not caring about the real reasons behind retribution, but rather an outlet of frustration in the form of killing some people we deem responsible.

I'm getting weary, after typing this through the night in an attempt to explain the background to my frustration in the form of a very, very simple question.

Namely:

Bill Clinton got impeached for a fucking blowjob and the motherfucking yet-to-be-burning BUSH is not only still alive( 'cause there ain't any way he could POSSIBLY be a martyr worth a shit!!!), but he and his crony sebum-licking inbred naval-lint-scrunching-munching nationalsocialist, mentally clear-felled, pus oozing meat puppets....should fucking ROT!!!...after constant mutilations and maiming in a lock-stock on a public square....AND THEY ARE NOT GONNA BE IMPEACHED???!!!

I don't like Carlos Mencia anymore 'cause his success has gone to his head and he steals material to stay afloat, but....about Clinton, he said it best: "Why Carlos, why did he lie? BECAUSE HE'S FUCKING MARRIED!!! THAT'S WHY!!!"

If Clinton had not been married he would not have been impeached. End of story. His cock had nothing to do with the state of the country. That was between him and Mrs. Clinton. I hope she beat the shit out of him....but that's between them and their marriage counselor....that has nothing to do with the 280million people he was responsible for. This dog has to wag so hard the brain will hemorrhage.

To myself; "he got impeached for a fucking blowjob and this one is still breathing? This guy has still not got even close to getting impeached, not even by the media in their pockets? That fucking DAMP victim anti-christ..."

Yes, I _know_ he was impeached for lying. My point was that we are fed a lot of nonsense from the mass media and that is what sticks. I didn't know everything about Waco until yeeears after, but on the other hand, the news about it was negligible "on the continent".

The dumbasses in question is still feeding me a lot of nonsense that I have to see through, despite being tagged as paranoid.

Yes, I know the US helped Japan...but do you fully understand why? Do you know why there was a bubble in Japan? I presume you know about why there was a depression in the US too.

There is a reason why the auto industry makes an ineffective car like Prius when both Japan and the US are sitting on some revolutionary patents.

I was trying to draw parallels between the recent history in some modern, industrial countries. And honestly, if I had been born in Japan, I would have known much less about the world and its history than I do today.

I'm just baffled by US media and its influences.
