Disbelieving the Farce of "elected" leadership and Their Propaganda

UPDATE ON THIS STORY -- 10-07-15:

http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/us-officials-investigating-how-so-many-toyotas-wind-up-in-the-hands-of-isis/ar-AAfaWLg?li=AAa0dzB&ocid=UP97DHP

So, they're just getting around to "investigating" this glaring problem?  WTF We ask?!  But, relax back into your Toyota seat, because -- Toyota, he said, has a "strict policy to not sell vehicles to potential purchasers who may use or modify them for paramilitary or terrorist activities."

Excuse my COTO-like cynicism here, as it is warranted.  Might we suggest any of these tracking devices easily found at the following links, so Toyota can know where their products are at all times -- https://www.google.com/#q=car+tracking+device ?

It is amazing how they think a terse "statement" will refute all reality, relieving them of accountability.  READ -- "Lewis said most of the Toyotas appearing in the videos are not new models, and the company cannot track down stolen vehicles or ones that have been bought and re-sold by middlemen. An Iraqi military spokesman told ABC News he thinks trucks are being smuggled into Iraq by outside middlemen, and Toyota distributors in the region said they are unsure how the trucks are getting to ISIS".

EPIC FAIL on all levels by the Toyota company "spokespersons", et.al.

------------------------------------------------------------------

Take the "War on Terror" farce for example.  You've seen the photos of long lines of ISIS "terrorists" in tennis shoes and Toyota's carrying light weaponry.  Yet, they kept expanding, supposedly threatening even Western nations now, with the fallout of their murderous campaigns in the middle east.  WITNESS -- Mass Immigration into Europe, U.S., etc.

I have a Toyota pickup, and ISIS has newer, better trucks than I, a hard working American.  In fact, I just had to spend $1000 for 4 new tires and shocks, just to keep rolling and working.  We are told by Western media outlets and Western leaders and administrators that ISIS seem to be invincible (I'm told to get a flu shot to, so there you have it).  At least, ISIS are a scourge in the M.E., and have been remarkably successful at continuing expansion of their "tennis shoes and Toyota" ground "war".  2 seconds of consideration of the history of war-making, tells me that to "expand" requires continuous re-supply of all the necessities -- in these groups case -- food, water, weapons, ammo, communications devices, fuel, nice white tennis shoes, and new Toyotas.  Tires I imagine too.  It quickly pops into one's mind that interrupting the supply lines for these rogue bands of murderous marauders would be Strategy #1.  Yet, we've heard the stories of U.S. and allies being absolutely lame at doing anything to make a dent in the expansion.  STOP THE TOYOTAS, STOP THE WHITE TENNIS SHOES might be a place to start.  We've heard of the U.S. and allies actually "mis-dropping" supplies supposedly intended for the war-ravaged innocents right into the waiting arms of ISIS.  OH, STOP THE MADNESS!

Yet, of course.  The Western and M.E. forces have been completely ineffectual in doing squat.

AAEAAQAAAAAAAALIAAAAJDIwNDg2M2VkLWYzMTAtNDE5OC04MWUyLTlhYzgyNGIwOWU4MA

Do you believe that?  That the Western forces are that inept?  C'mon!!!

So, now whaddaya got?  We see Russia making fantastic headway within 72 hours (read the line-up of reports at  http://www.infowars.com/, http://www.whatreallyhappened.com/, and others for alt-news stories on the docket).

Can we deduce about now, that Western forces (mis-leadership) have pointedly avoided striking any meaningful blows against ISIS over the last years or so?  Lets see -- We witness "words" & "actions", and form an informed opinion.

Russia is in the act of embarrassing the U.S. military and "leadership", by showing the world what Air Power can do to rag tag "terrorists".  Hiding this Obvious Fact of a policy of U.S. "dis-engagement" in the conflict is gonna take some real propaganda efforts in the West!

We reflect on 9/11 and all of the Really Strange happenings and non-happenings during and after that "event".  Something is stinky, stinky, stinky.  And the administrations' and leadership, their agencies, and all of Humpty Dumpty's cadre of furiously writing script & meme flatulating corps cannot write out of Reality the OBVIOUS -- This entire group of parasites on humanity's ass are useless LIARS by commission and omission.  I see no other conclusion.

AND, WHAT ELSE ARE WE SEEING?

We are seeing the knee jerk Constitution-kicking commies committing themselves to the false meme of "Gun Control" for solving domestic problems (after the "latest" False Flage in a continuous string of False Flags).  The resident leader puppet, Mr. Obama goes on record with his 2nd Amendment bashing (eradicating) thoughts on the subject of people owning guns:

http://www.infowars.com/obama-goes-beyond-mere-gun-control-hints-at-confiscation/

http://www.infowars.com/obama-claims-russian-airstrikes-strengthening-isis/

People point out the Obvious about this dangerous and stupid line of thinking -- http://www.infowars.com/australias-gun-law-did-not-prevent-shooting-at-police-headquarters/, and http://www.infowars.com/community-college-where-10-shot-dead-was-a-gun-free-zone/.

Don't think I believe anything or everything that comes off of Infowars by-the-way.  I'm just using stories from there to highlight the point of this thread.

AND -- We get dirty politicians like Ms. Hillary Clinton, a wanna-be pResident, also trying to sell the meme publicly -- http://www.infowars.com/hillary-clinton-calls-for-mass-movement-to-eradicate-second-amendment/

hillary-clinton-green

Insane McPain in-our-ass also sells the gun control meme whilst his state of Arizona funnels and funds drugs and illegals into the "United States of Illegal Immigrants" faster than you can say, "Are You Kidding, McCain?!

Then, there's Trump at least speaking truth-to-reality and taking the opposite approach to bolster his run for the Puppetry position -- http://www.infowars.com/donald-trump-storms-tennessee-to-push-second-amendment-protection-plan/.

You might appreciate this piece that is making the rounds on the alt-net news sites -- http://www.washingtonsblog.com/2015/10/how-to-spy-the-911-lie.html.  Of course, you're not gonna even be steered in the direction of THINKING FOR YOURSELF by the MSM, so I imagine the idea of legitimate "INQUIRY?" into things that make no sense will not rise to the level of conscious thought of the ginormously propagandized citizenry.  When things don't make any sense, they are erased, omitted, or dis-infoed by the thought-control crowd.

STOP MEMEing ME You Assholes!!!

I'm outta steam on this issue for the moment.  But it bears intense scrutiny and careful consideration by Americans whose taxes fund massively inept institutions of "control & profit", which are murderous in their design, and treasonous from their foundation.  I disbelieve the BAD CARTOON that is running before me.  No apologies.

Dear COTO Friends and Allies, this is Irish calling for help and some action......

Putting this into context and reminiscent of the starting of COTO.

I had been posting in the past few weeks on the site Common Dreams. I had been noting just how many articles that were of a Democrat/Obama apologist bent. With a occasional token voice pointing out the Democrats and Obama's very direct complicity in the state of our nation.

I had submitted articles that were not published.

However, two days ago I had posted a comment on an article by Paul Krugman titled "Oh..My.. God.. Obama Clueless.

In my comment I had been debating with another person there, Ted Marklow about Obama. Suddenly my post and another was disappeared, the entire discussion was removed. Another poster commented about perhaps Common Dreams having an "invisible donor problem." I responded by talking about the possibility of George Soros being the "invisible donor problem." I further related to a video I had just received on how George Soros, Goldman Sachs were directly benefiting from the foreclosure crisis. It is called "The Indymac Slap In Our Face." I then pointed out how it was Goldman Sachs and George Soros that owns the Democratic Party.

Suddenly, my entire posts disappear and now, just like Op Ed news, I am banned from posting on Common Dreams.

Most of the posts are lost but I did save these late in the game, just in case.

Lessons in COTO ~ Afghan Deja Vu

Last Chance

A leading Afghan Marxist, Babrak Karmal (1929-1996) became Russian puppet ruler of the Democratic Republic of Afghanistan after the Russian invasion in December 1979 until his resignation "because of ill health" on May 4, 1986.  Twenty years ago the Soviets pulled out of Afghanistan for good. Ten years and tens of thousands of lives were lost in the "bleeding wound" coined by Gorbachev.

Competing Strategies, Blind Faith in Af/Pak







Competing Strategies, Blind Faith in Af/Pak

Bob Woodward’s piece for the WaPo, in which he recounts national security advisor Jim Jones telling military leaders that any further calls for more troops in Afghanistan would occasion a “Whiskey Tango Foxtrot moment” from Obama, has both COINdinistas and contraCOINers discussing prioritization of the (still benchmarkless) strategy’s confusing components in Afghanistan.
