The Morning Rant: J.V. Edition

punk-monkey.jpg

Sometimes chimps are just crazy. We don't know how to deal with them, because they just don't do what we expect. But we never turn our backs on the crazy ones...they are nuts, but very dangerous. Getting poo thrown on us is never fun.

Iran accuses West of using lizards for nuclear spying

The former chief-of-staff of Iran’s armed forces said Tuesday that Western spies had used lizards to “attract atomic waves” and spy on his country’s nuclear program.

It was the latest in a long line of incidents of Western countries, including Israel, being accused of deploying secret agents from the animal kingdom.


Sure, it sounds funny, and one part of me is pleased that the West, in particular The United States and Israel lives rent-free in Iran's head.

But the reality is that Shia Islam as is practiced in Iran is ripe for this kind of insane-sounding rhetoric. Does the former chief of staff believe it? I doubt it. But it resonates with many in Iran, and it is illuminating that the junta continues to pump out this stuff. It obviously works. And it exposes the mindset of a people who were acquiescent enough to wage a decade-long war against Iraq that killed 500,000 Iranians and whose end result was...nothing.

The combination of that kind of populace and an aggressive ruling class that is confident of its own success in the end-times is a big problem for the world. Israel is at ground zero (and I use that term accurately), but Western Europe and The United States is not far behind.

36 The United States Holocaust Memorial Council was established by Congress in 1980 to lead the nation in commemorating the Holocaust and to raise private funds for and build the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum. Once the Museum opened in 1993, the Council became the governing board of trustees of the Museum, an independent establishment of the United States government operating as a public-private partnership that receives some federal funding to support operations of the Museum building.

The Council, which meets twice a year, consists of 55 members appointed by the president, as well as five members each from the Senate and House of Representatives and three ex-officio members from the Departments of Education, Interior, and State. Presidential appointments serve for a five-year term; 11 members terms expire each year.

Because of the large size of the Council, its work is done primarily through the committee structure. The Executive Committee, which acts on behalf of the Council in between Council meetings, meets four times a year.

45 "Here is a nice blog that takes Senator Warren's preposterous claims of Cherokee ancestry and rips them to shreds."

But look at it the other way. Assume that Warren is absolutely correct - that she is 1/32 Cherokee.

She applied for Ivy League law school jobs as a minority candidate, based on that 1/32 ancestry, and put herself into a book of resumes of minority candidates looking for law school professorships.

Democrats need to be asked if this is acceptable.

Should anyone who is 1/32 black, say, qualify for the full panoply of affirmative action protection?

There are a **lot** of Americans with incidental minority ancestry (I'm blacker than Warren is Cherokee, for example). Should they all qualify for affirmative action?

Posted by: JoeF. at February 15, 2018 11:19 AM (7uYFy)

78 "thoughts and prayers" are felt and thought by social minded people to offer sympathy and comfort to the group, and to help create a sense of group identity and group strength in a time of crisis and stress.

also, because it's better than "wasn't within 10 miles of me, so what" or "piss off you jerks, who cares?"

the left is mad because every incident must be used in their Drive to Seize Power, and this kind of statement does not lead towards that goal. So they hate it.

To understand the heart of the Left, realize that they are overjoyed everytime a shooting like this happens, because they see it as a Glorious Opportunity for them to seize more power. And then their joy turns to rage when it starts to look as though their plans will be thwarted once again.

To understand the heart of the Left, realize that they are overjoyed everytime a shooting like this happens, because they see it as a Glorious Opportunity for them to seize more power. And then their joy turns to rage when it starts to look as though their plans will be thwarted once again.

It was the latest in a long line of incidents of Western countries, including Israel, being accused of deploying secret agents from the animal kingdom.

Hassan Firuzabadi, senior military adviser to supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, was responding to questions from local media on the recent arrest of environmentalists.

The story referred to is the recent arrest, torture, and custodial murder of one of the most respected environmentalists in Iran, Kavous Emami. He had no known connections to the west, and was not involved in any anti-government activities. What got him in trouble was his claim that the current government's land use and aquifer policies were going to lead to massive droughts and massive food shortages in rural areas in 5 - 10 years. Westerners who saw his work believe he was right.

Think of him as a real life Liet Kynes. And killed for much the same reason.

Precedent's already been set. Operation Choke Point.

Ah ... I remember it well .... let's go back to that GrooveYard of Forgotten Hits ... all the way back to ... 2013 ...

The Horde was still coming to grips with a new, confrontational, often-banned member named ScoggDog. A jaunty, Libertarian Lad with strong Federalist Leanings, a distrust of Federal Authority, and a reflexive intolerance of Hypocrisy.

The DoJ instituted Operation Choke Point ... designed to discourage banks with doing business with "undesireable" companies and individuals via threat of investigation ... all under the guise of squashing money laundering and fraud.

And many Republicans cheered ... because many Porn Stars and Professional Gamblers suddenly found they couldn't open a checking account. And those Professions are icky ... so fuck 'em.

And ScoggDog - that Sage of the Slippery Slope - pissed off many of the Horde then for saying that this would not end well.

204 Before you let teachers arm up, consider how that is going to go wrong: first, some airhead teacher will be thinking about the 17 year old she wants to go to bed with and she'll leave her gun unsecured, and some kid will grab and shoot some other kid, or even worse, some even more addle brained teacher will flip out like the teacher here in texas who started duct taping all her students mouths shut.

The very small town by me has Indians for their team name. Most admire the history of those before us, though it is largely romanticized. But some even now go out and find arrowheads in the fields, sometimes larger items, I have found some, have many from my uncles.

The affinity to the old inhabitants is natural, though I'm not sure the white man learned a lot from the American Indian other than some hunting abilities perhaps.

Americanism must be taught in schools ... a respect for the American Indian sure, but a clearer look at the WASPy nature of the early settlers and our constitution. Our early "tribes" were perhaps the churches, though they kept a strong separation of powers in federal government and their variety pack of denominations.

The left has romanticized other cultures while now demonizing the Christian/Western culture. There were culture clashes between first world and third world ... first world won. Hurray. The noble savage was not so noble, but we at times exhibited our own savagery.

As with freeing the slaves with civil war, it could have been done more peacefully/fairly. But the globalists only intend to break the West with PC revisionism (and federal tyranny), so we must again fight the tyrants.

233 The Left saw how 9/11 unites the country and immediately realized they could never let something like that happen again. But they had to wait.

So they always make sure to come up with a divisive narrative for every tragedy, and when possible they only highlight tragedies that have the divisiveness baked in - ie little Trayvon.

It's not coincidence or happenstance. It is intentional.

So, hard as it may be to believe, the right-away gun thing is less about guns than making sure we can't all just come together over something that is fundamentally a time of unity. Same thing when they side with terrorists or hide terrorist motivations.

It is pavlovian. For about 7 years now, they have been training us to divide in response to tragedy. It is pure evil.

240 20 The former chief-of-staff of Iran's armed forces said Tuesday that Western spies had used lizards to "attract atomic waves" and spy on his country's nuclear program.

There was a William Gibson novel (Neuromancer?) that started out with an assassination using some sort of robot dog carrying a pack of explosives and it zeroed in on the guy in a crowd of people by detecting his pheromones and something else (DNA?) and when it scampered in close enough, kaboom.

But nobody ever overthrew a government using AIDS.

And to every Progressive I've ever had the displeasure of talking to, as well as every Typical Republican, that's what this all comes down to.

A firearm is the ultimate expression of a Personal Veto. And that mentality just fucking drives a large swath of the population nuts.

The notion that they can get together, vote, and I may or may not go along as I wish .... Progressives and Typical Republicans hate that shit.

In the mind of a Progressive ... Political Power should be the Ultimate Power - assuming that power is in Progressive control. Anything that contradicts that ... like a Redneck owning a Gun ... simply can't be tolerated.

I have a good friend who grew up around guns. Her mom was one hell of a shooter, could hit any target with a .22 after growing up on a farm in the Matanuska Valley.

The friend is so anti-gun it is silly.

She has become something of a fag-hag in San Diego, and has determined that nobody needs a gun, they certainly don't need big magazines for their guns, and we should all get rid of our firearms.

I asked her how she thinks I should take down my yearly moose. She said that's different.

Then I asked her why I couldn't defend myself or my son if some bozo decides upon malfeasance. She said she thought I could scream and run.

I'm about 5'1 and not exactly built for speed.

Then I asked her what I should do if somebody big and strong decided to rape me.

She said she didn't want to discuss it any more.

This is the mindset of the new progressive. Pretty much the same mindset of the old progressive, but with less talking points. There is no answer, so they don't give one. They just double down on stupid.

This was my argument during the controversy about arming pilots: if you think about it, they have assumed responsibilities much weightier than just carrying a piece, so let them carry."

Difference between pilots and teachers - Pilots aren't given their certification just because they have all the right political beliefs, and promise to always faithfully contribute to the union, and oh, because their trainer feels sorry for them since their "heart is in the right place."

At least I sure as hell hope they aren't.

404 W/R/T lizards: anyone remember the gang of 14 spy squirrels? "Iranians arrest 14 squirrels for spying-
Islamic Republic's intelligence agents allege rodents were carrying advanced Western spy gear" (circa 2007,

Lizzy Warren is doing nothing new. Hell, Ward Churchill got away with claiming to be Native American by braiding his hair, wearing sunglasses and being so militant that no one questioned whether he was an American Indian or an American Imposter until he had tenure and a nationwide speaking tour denouncing the "white man's crimes" against his people.

Well there, you see a serious iniative to arm teachers could be means of cleaning some deadwood out of the ranks. Treat it as an opportunity.

Before you let teachers arm up, consider how that is going to go wrong:
first, some airhead teacher will be thinking about the 17 year old she
wants to go to bed with and she'll leave her gun unsecured, and some kid
will grab and shoot some other kid, or even worse, some even more addle
brained teacher will flip out like the teacher here in texas who
started duct taping all her students mouths shut. (I understand the
feeling, but she shouldn't have done it)



only professionally screened security officers should be armed on a campus, and that's expensive.

Posted by: Tom Servo at February 15, 2018 11:48 AM (k1TUh)

I tend to agree. But this is a Yoyo world. You're on your own. I would argue this is a smaller version of "Die Quietly Citizen" with a shoot the security guard first chaser. I agree these are hard decisions.

There are dbags everywhere who screw up the best laid plans (officers leaving their guns in public rest rooms, SS agents porking whores in foreign countries, rookie Minnesota cops shooting people in their PJs).

But you know what? You know who I trust to protect my immediate life in the here and now? It ain't some jackwagon on the other side of a quarter mile wide campus chatting up the cute first year student teacher in the faculty lounge because he's bored with his job today (every FBI agent in charge of preserving crime scenes lately). Someone walks into an office and starts spraying bullets, where is this trained guy? Sure would be nice that after I hear three shots around the corner, see two kids get shot and some dude with a smoking gun is turning to look at me that I have a better choice than "Die Quietly Citizen.... and don't bleed on the rug". Cause mostly people who argue that I am not qualified to defend myself, my own life, don't give a shit if I die. Just don't make any F-ing paperwork for them. That's the real truth.
They are just playing the odds, except, to be sure, they have all the advantages of legal possession and free carry or a personal detail, while I get the "Die Quietly, Citizen" treatment.

410 "Lot of Cherokee blood in the American population. I guess Jackson didnt kill all of them."

That's one of the big untold secrets of the American frontier - a large number of the tribes were *NOT* killed off or driven away; many just intermarried and intermixed with the frontier population on small rural homesteads. Which is why there really are a large number of Americans who have true Indian heritage.

There's a picture we have of the family of one of my ancestors from the 1870's. 7 kids, all grouped together for a family portrait. 4 are very white and blonde, 3 are very olive skinned with jet black hair. No explanation ever written down for this, but when you look at the picture, it jumps out at you. Of course they apparently just took it for granted.

411 Besides it's just ignorance and bias for Joy Behar to think Pence means that God is speaking to him in a audible voice. She's not intelligent enough to ask, "I wonder what Mike Pence means by speaking? If Martin Luther King said "God spoke to me" would Behar think he was mentally ill too?. I don't know why Christian women would tune into that program. And anyway, I think audible voices are rare even in the Bible, even with Saints (I don't know anyone that's heard one) but if God speaking to me means that I can be like Saint Terese of Avila or John Wesley or George Whitfield I'll gladly be called crazy.

413 The idea that having Indian/Cherokee blood was something Warrens family did not talk about because they were ashamed of is yet more utter BS. Anybody I know growing up that had a single drop never failed to bring it up at every opportunity and could not stop bragging about it.This was long before PC made it shameful to be White. I suspect many just made it up to have a cools story. Much like Liawatha.

415 "...a decade-long war against Iraq that killed 500,000 Iranians and whose end result was...nothing."

A moron can argue for even "less than nothing". Here's how:
Saddam's excuse to start that war was a 1975 Algiers' agreement between Iran and Iraq.The Shah wanted that agreement. Saddam hated it.The Shah nevertheless managed to coerce Saddam into signing the agreement. (Saddam was so pissed that he immediately took revenge on his own Kurdish population. But I digress).
The agreement recognized Iran's equal rights to commercially navigate Arvand Rood waterways at the border between the two. Until then the right solely belonged to Iraq.
Some 5 years after that came Islamic revolution in Iran followed soon by 8 year war of stupidity between Shia and Sunni.
Status quo now is this: Mullahs demand The Algiers be re-validated but Iraq flips them the bird. That's where "less than nothing" comes into being.500.000 death and Shias are back to the old pre 1975 drawing board.
