War

A month ago or so, a UN investigation team reported that rebels in Syria had used chemical weapons. By the time that report was politicized for release, it claims the Syrian government had used chemical weapons. Claims that the government forces have used chemical weapons cannot be trusted. If they used them, they would use them to their advantage, but they've gained no advantage from their use. They also risk western retaliation if they use them. But the rebels and western warmonger supporters have much to gain from making the claims. This is why the only evidence the government used them is testimony.

Syria used to be a French colony, so this French official has ulterior motives for accusing the government of using sarin.

"But he did not specify where or when the agent had been deployed; the White House has said more proof was needed."

France recently invaded former colony Mali, so maybe Syria is next on their list.

Male on male sexual abuse in the military is more common but reported less frequently than male on female.

A look back on the abuse of Bradley Manning on the day his trial starts.

Here's an alternative extremist view of Bradley Manning.

"Although we had to swelter in the Maryland sun on Saturday, I found the pre-trial rally at Ft. Meade to support Bradley Manning particularly spirit-filled. It seemed there was an unspoken but widely shared consciousness that Manning is as much Biblical prophet as Army private.
I think Manning can be seen as a classic prophet in the Abrahamic tradition. Such prophets take risks to expose injustice and challenge the rest of us to do the same. They also are a very large pain to those who oppress — and a pain, as well, to those of us who would prefer not to have to bother about such things."

Funny, I thought prophets were agents of God's intervention of earth. I don't believe it.

Is the US really losing the cyber-war to China or is this just propaganda? Probably both. Let's face it, the US is more advanced, therefore it has more to lose. That's another reason government's hate the internet. It empowers little guys to catch up to big guys.
