Just plain cynical
Monday, November 29, 2010
There are many pieces that make up the puzzle of the mess we find ourselves in.
Everyone from the Rothschilds (the most inbred family in the world; by their own "rules") to GlaxoSmithKline Pharma to Arab and Russian oil tycoons to other assorted wealthy corporatists.
But this Wikileaks thing just has something "mainstream" about it. Insofar as the mainstream are talking about it. Endlessly.
We know what authoritarian governments do when they REALLY don't like something. They go hell for leather to eliminate it. And they usually succeed (barring a violent revolution—which they avoid by hypnotism via Strictly Cum X-Factor).
However, my own cynicism is not a good enough reason not to read this. It's comprehensive and an excellent read.
What do you think of it all?

I will get round to reading the link later CS.But that is exactly what i was thinking today.There is something smelly about this,and i dont like it.It seems very mainstream and there isn't anything we didn't really know allready come out so far(i maybe wrong we will see)Is it staged?All we keep hearing is everyone is tightening security,in other words taking more of our liberties away,for are own good of course??
Katabasis' blog is always brilliantly written. It's what he does. :)
CS,
Will have a read CS and you've been busy no doubt from your absence over the last few days. Trust me though, things are about to get even more confusing. One clear path will lead to a door and behind that many more to go down and investigate. The bunny hole is very deep and there are many layers to the onion.
I posted the following link on Talking Clock's article on the WikiLeak story:
More Evidence That Wikileaks Is Disinformation: Wikileaks, A Touch Of Assange, And The Stench Of AIPAC
Northerntruthseeker does know his stuff.
Great cynics think alike eh, just linked to you over the wiki deliberate leaks thing seems theres more than just the two of us that are (to say the least) sceptical CS!
Crackdown on the net.
Sorry about the delay in replying, all. My internet connection has been a bit temperamental of late.
fraser: interesting the media seem to have found one or two useful bits within the memo, particularly concerning Pakistan. Five Live have been running with it for the last 24 hours or so, so I dare say that those who purport to rule this planet will be quietly rubbing their hands with glee whilst pretending to scowl in front of the cameras.
DP: I used to wish he'd write more often, but some of those essays must take weeks to research and are usually worth the wait :-)
Harbers: I used to hold Wikileaks in reasonably high esteem. But then I thought to myself "if governments really wanted it gone, it'd be gone".
As for the bunny hole - I'm sure many a door I open will be the wrong one. But this is why it's useful to have unmoderated comments and a margin for correction if needed :-)
I'll have a read of that link. Cheers.
Nomine: I've got an absolute stack of reading to do. 301 unread items in my Google Reader as of now!
Cynicism hasn't let us down yet. James Higham's comment just after yours had crossed my mind several times since this latest leak as a useful byproduct of this "saga" as far as governments are concerned.
James: Abso-bloody-exactly! Wikileaks is the gift that keeps on giving for those who wish to store and monitor absolutely everything.
All for our own good though.
Hi CS: My computer conked out for about a week, and I'm catching up on all my fav blogs. I too, think there is something suspicious about this whole Wikileak thing. I think the gov't is behind it, as an excuse to take away more of our freedoms. They should all just go and take a leak.
I hope you are enjoying the nice winter weather, NOT, it's been bad here, with more to come, take care.
