Nice dinner of delusion, Korean stir-fry style

Wow...Communism makes you stupid AND mentally ill.... as noted at the Korean Central News Agency:

DPRK, Defender of Socialist Cause: Russian Party

Pyongyang, November 23 (KCNA) -- The Central Committee of the Communist Workers' Party of Russia-Revolutionary Communist Party posted on its internet website on Nov. 14 an article titled "Historical inevitability of the victory of the socialist cause".


The article said:


Socialism is the revolutionary banner of the popular masses struggling for independence.


Socialist society based on collectivism is the most advantageous and progressive society that conforms to the independent attribute of human being.


The imperialists are making desperate efforts to pull down socialism by employing all means and methods including military power, psychological warfare and economic blockade, because socialism is superior to capitalism.


The desire for socialism is daily growing stronger in Latin America, which was called "tranquil backyard" of the United States.


Pyongyang Declaration "Let Us Defend and Advance the Cause of Socialism" was made public in Pyongyang in April 1992 with signatures of delegates of 70 revolutionary parties in the world.


The declaration has been signed by over 270 political parties up to now.


The DPRK, demonstrating its might as a staunch defender of the socialist cause and invincible fortress, instills confidence in victory and courage into the people of many countries.


Thanks to the Songun politics pursued by leader Kim Jong Il the Korean people have bolstered up self-reliant defense power and successfully accelerated socialist construction while resolutely frustrating the imperialists' moves.


The cause of socialism is vigorously advancing toward its final victory.


And OWS, if this doesn't sum up your assholery....North Korea thinks you're da bomb!

 Capitalism Existing for 1 Percent of Rich Must Go to Ruin: KCNA Commentary

Pyongyang, November 23 (KCNA) -- Working masses' anti-Wall Street protests have continued unabated, shaking the capitalist system down to its roots.


Riot police are hurled to put down the protests but only fell short of blocking the masses' advance.

This has stoked fears among the rulers of the capitalist countries.


This proves capitalism is reactionary system and ailing society where the rich get ever richer and the poor ever poorer as a 1 percent tiny handful of exploiters oppress toiling masses making up 99 percent of the population.


A recent opinion poll conducted in the U.S. showed the majority of Americans voiced resentment against the ever-widening gap between the rich and the poor. In the poll jointly conducted by the Washington Post and ABC TV, over 6 out of 10 respondents said the rich-poor gap is widening in economic aspect. The income disparity between the people in the upper brackets of income and the rest of Americans is now all time high since the great depression about 70 years ago.


The income of wealthy people grew about 275 percent for the past 28 years. In 2010 the number of the poor increased by 7 million from 10 years ago.


The widening gap between the 1 percent rich and the 99 percent poor is an inevitable result of the structural contradiction of capitalism.


The history of capitalism is characterized by the accumulation of wealth by monopoly tycoons. In this course a crucial change took place in the relations of class forces, sharpening contradiction and conflict.


In the capitalist society the well-to-do people get ever richer while the poor are reduced to extreme poverty. The rich take to itself products and almost all wealth of the society, wallowing in luxury while the toiling masses languish in hunger and poverty. The people are degenerated, becoming slaves of money and the broad masses suffer from unemployment, hunger and poverty.


It has become frequent occurrences in the capitalist countries for even the middle classes to lose properties due to bankruptcy and unemployment and join the poor.


A big group of the unemployed are in the making in the Western countries bogged by financial and debt crises.


The rulers and monopoly capitalists are talking rhetoric about "class cooperation" and "welfare policy" to calm down the daily worsening socio-class contradiction in the capitalist countries.


Cooperation between the exploiting class and the grassroots people in the capitalist society is sheer sophism little short of a wolf and a sheep living in the same pen as friends.


It is an inevitable process of the historical development that the people intensify their actions to win the right to existence and democracy against the arbitrary practices of the monopoly capitalists.


The widening gap between the rich and the poor will escalate the people's protest against it.


Capitalism can never solve its socio-class contradiction by itself but will meet a final ruin by the people's actions for independence.


And just in time for Israel to get the final nod of approval in blowing Iran back to Satan's pet pig's sewer:

Lebanese Speaker: U.S. Trying to Mislead Arabs in Dealing with Iran

Pyongyang, November 23 (KCNA) -- Lebanese Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri on Monday scathingly criticized the U.S. for its wrong attempt.


The U.S. is continuing propaganda campaign against Iran to trigger religious and sectarian strife among Arab states, he said, adding that the U.S. even tries to divert public opinion from the hostility of the Zionist regime to Iran.


The Zionist regime will remain the eternal enemy of Arabs, he underlined.


Yup, Kim Jong Il is the world's Ron Paul...insane, desperate, and anti-semitic...

Confirmation of my 2005 interview with Islam apostate "Alex"

I told you so.

I'm going to say it again, in all caps.  Look away if you're easily offended.

I TOLD YOU SO.

In 2005, I wrote an article that came to life from an interview with "Alex," an Islam apostate who began writing to me earlier in the year in his frustration as to why America was always apologizing for defending itself and treating enemies like friends and friends like enemies.  At that time, he brought up the point below that I included in the article:





"Do any of you know what Mean Time Between Failure means? It is the guaranteed time that a new technology can last before it needs to be replaced. Say that a part is created for the space shuttle that has an MTBF of 2000 hours. In countries that are your enemies, they will make it only to last 1000 hours. I know this is done—I’ve seen it. Do you see how insidious this is? They are not only stealing your technology, but ‘dumbing down’ the products they send you, all in an effort to destroy you. Do you see now? Are you ever going to stop apologizing for defending yourself? Are you ever going to wake up and stop this policy of self-destruction? Why are you doing this? If America is brought down, then Islam and Communism will rule the world. I’ve seen both, which is why America must remain the predominant power in the world."
Now, keep the above excerpt in mind while reading what has been revealed today.  (My original article follows the article from today that I posting now)

Chinese Counterfeit Parts in U.S. Military’s Boeing, L3 Aircraft


By Tony Capaccio
Nov. 8 (Bloomberg) -- Dozens of suspected counterfeit parts have been installed on U.S. defense equipment from Raytheon Co., L-3 Communications Holdings Inc. and Boeing Co., including aircraft deployed to Afghanistan.
The Senate Armed Services Committee found counterfeit parts -- usually from China -- on at least seven aircraft, including the Lockheed Martin Corp. C-130J transport plane, Boeing P-8A Poseidon maritime patrol and L-3 27J Spartan transport.
“Suspect electronic parts from China were installed on military systems and subsystems that were manufactured by Raytheon Co., L-3 Communications and Boeing,” said the memo from the committee’s staff, released yesterday in advance of a hearing today.
None of the examples were connected to instances of lives lost or dramatic failures causing an aircraft crash, Michigan Senator Carl Levin, the committee chairman, said.
Still, the committee staff has “identified lots of places where, unless that correction was made, there was real fear that those kind of disastrous consequences could take place,” Levin said.
Separately, the Pentagon’s Defense Criminal Investigative Service is investigating approximately 40 cases involving various counterfeit items, Assistant Pentagon Inspector General for Investigative Operations James Ives said in an e-mail. The agency is conducting 225 investigations “involving potentially defective or substandard parts and components,” he said.
Deployed Aircraft
“The cases may involve counterfeits or improperly made parts,” Ives said.
Two new L-3 Air Force C-27J Spartans deployed to Afghanistan have displays with suspect parts, according to the committee. L3’s Integrated Systems unit notified the Air Force on Sept. 19 that 38 suspect video memory chips were installed in the display units on eight of the first 11 aircraft delivered.
The L-3 unit that made the displays learned of the suspect memory chips in November 2010, the memo said. The committee traced the chips to Hong Dark Electronic Trade in Shenzhen, China, which also delivered an earlier counterfeit part L-3 discovered in October 2009, it said.
The display units are made by L-3 Communications Display Systems and provide pilots with diagnostic data including engine status, fuel usage, location and warning messages.
The C-27J displays were among more than 500 containing suspect Chinese parts sold to the Air Force, Navy and defense contractors for installation also on C-130J and C-17 transport and Marine Corps CH-46 helicopters, the memo said.
Memory Chip Risks
“Failure of the memory chip could cause a display unit to show a degraded image, lose data or even go blank,” the memo said.
L-3 spokeswoman Jennifer Barton said the company is “reviewing the matter.”
“The fact that defective parts are in aircraft that are deployed in Afghanistan is evidence of the seriousness of the problem,” Levin said in an e-mail to Bloomberg News.
The Senate committee’s investigative staff amassed a database with 1,800 cases of counterfeiting totaling about 1 million parts. It scrutinized 100 cases and found that 70 percent of the suspect parts were traced to Chinese firms, according to the memo.
“Nearly 20 percent of the remaining cases were tracked to the United Kingdom and Canada -- known resale points for counterfeit electronic parts from China,” it said.
Legislation Considered
The panel is considering ways to tighten rules against the counterfeits, Levin told reporters, including requiring the defense contractors to pay for replacing the parts with genuine items.
“There’s a lot of possibilities here,” Levin said. “Right now, there is ambiguity in some of the contracts,” he said. “It depends on some extent as to the wording of the contract, whether it is cost-plus or fixed price,” he said.
Legislation “will force contractors to tell” their subcontractors and their subcontractor’s suppliers that they need to make sure the parts being sold are legitimate, he said.
“If you out the onus on all of our contractors they will get that message back to their suppliers as well,” he said.

SLEEPING GIANT
STAY AWAKE, DAMMIT
By: Resa LaRu Kirkland




One of my favorite icons in history is Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto. I was raised with a great love for history by a dad who knew just about every damned thing to do with WWII. In fact, I had to be the only fifth grader who knew that Yamamoto planned the attack on Pearl Harbor. I didn’t stop there; I went on to tell my teacher and class that he was educated in America, warned Japan against fighting us, told them they would lose, was sent out to sea in part because his life was being threatened for daring to say the emperor could be defeated, his personal hero was Abraham Lincoln, and made the famous "Sleeping Giant" quote.


It was a warning we continue to ignore.


There was much about him to admire. He wasn’t just an intelligent man; he was wise and honorable. While studying at Harvard, he was awed by the American people. He could not get over what he called "their unfailing optimism." It was unimaginable to Yamamoto—they were not disciplined with the Bushido code, not part of the superior Japanese race. And yet, they had a sense of hope, a sanguinity that both baffled and inspired him.
He had been taught in Japan that easy living had made Americans soft and lazy. They would never have the disposition to fight a long, hard war…at the first loss of life they would fold. Americans had a silly sentimentality attached to the individual human life. The Japanese believed in never actually dying, and that ending your mortal life in war for the emperor meant eternal exaltation. It also meant that the parents of such a son would be financially compensated. (Hmmmm…sounds familiar.)


Japan had taught their people that Americans paid lip service to freedom being more precious than life, but they didn’t actually mean it. The 1930’s had proven that. America turned a blind eye to what was happening in the hope that it would all just go away; that Hitler would finally be satiated with each new nation he ravaged under the Nazi scythe. They had even ignored Japan’s aggression in Korea and China. This appeared to support the Japanese perception that Americans were just too ductile to take on the hard, disciplined nation of Japan. America had been the only realm that Japan and Germany feared could stop them. But once it became clear that they would do nothing and would actually look the other way, they became a joke to the two predator nations.
Yamamoto didn’t want to align with Germany. He told his Army friends that such an alliance would be death to Japan. When it happened, the heads of Japan’s military machine asked him to plan a first, massive strike on American soil. What he told them stunned the council.


"I can make an attack, and I can assure you of victory for the first 6 to 12 months of the war. But after that, I promise nothing. I also know that you think America is soft, and will not fight a sustained and costly war anymore. Nothing could be further from the truth. If we start this war, we cannot stop at Hawaii or even California…we will have to march on until we are at the steps of the White House. We must follow the Geneva convention in this attack. If we deal with America dishonorably by not first signaling our intentions to them in cutting off negotiations, they will be unmerciful with us, and we will lose."


We all know what happened.


In the hours after the attack, Yamamoto found out that the message had failed to reach the President before the first strike as planned. In America’s eyes, it had been an unprovoked sneak attack. While all around him were celebrating their victory at Pearl, Yamamoto sat in stony silence. Slowly the others noticed, and out of engrained respect, sat to listen to what the great warrior had to say.


"The message did not reach Washington until hours after the attack began. I can think of nothing that would enrage the American people more than an unprovoked attack. I fear all that we have accomplished is to awaken a sleeping giant and fill him with a terrible resolve."




There it is—the first reference to America being asleep on thejob, and only awakening after being attacked.


All of Yamamoto’s predictions and warnings came to pass. Six months after Pearl, they suffered their first great defeat at Midway. By the first anniversary, the tide had turned. In less than four years, the American "terrible resolve" mushroomed for the entire world to see.


But there is one saying Yamamoto had that I do not agree with. When consulting with his Army friend about negotiating with America, he reminded him that "there is no final word in diplomacy."


This is not true.


When you have an enemy who refuses to acknowledge your right to live as you choose, you only have two word choices—capitulation or war.


Again we have an enemy who believes we cannot win. Unlike Yamamoto, however, they are not men of honor, who believe in following any of the established rules for warfare, let alone human decency. They turn their women and children into combatants—just as the VC did—and then exploit flaws in the American system they so despise to gain wealth, propaganda, and a world that will submit to Islam or taste the point of their spear. They do not warn their own people that they cannot win; instead they use our own people—hippies—on our own soil—Hollywood—to spread their lies and defend their civil rights, ensuring that they can continue in their wicked work until they succeed.


But we are fortunate. We still have those raised in Islam who recognize the evil and abandon it. They see the good things about America and Israel, and the two do not reckon. They choose the one that is right and good. Out of respect and a sense of safety for this land, they sound warnings to us constantly. My Muslim contact is one, but his warnings are many.


"You are under attack, and they will not stop. They will fight in ways you consider horrifying, such as using civilians and children against you. They will sign treaties only to get you to let your guard down. They will never honor a treaty because the Quran teaches it is not a sin to break a promise with the infidel. In fact, it encourages such behavior as an insidious way to weaken and destroy the enemy. In Islam you are taught to be a good neighbor, to attend barbecues, baby-sit for your neighbors, and get them to like you. This will make it harder for them to believe that Muslims are really that bad, thus enabling the goal of Islam and stunting America’s ability or willingness to stop them. It will also make it so you never see it coming—they’ll be at your party one weekend, and when—not if—the call comes, they will slit your child’s throat in front of you the following weekend.


"The Nordic races have been gutted to the point of fracture all over the world, but particularly in America. Your attitude and apparently mandated policy of racism against whites—the race that created and built America—is baffling. Allowing feminist ideals to put your children in the hands of the state from birth on is only ensuring that they will tow the government line and not fight back when the time comes.


"One of the problems I have with the black race is their attitude. (Don’t worry, he can say that. It’s only racist if you’re white.) I have a colleague from Africa who is black, and he is the best scientist I know. But the blacks in America have this outlook of entitlement—that they don’t have to work and sacrifice like the white races have. This is something they continue to do to themselves in spite of their vast opportunities. They don’t have to overcome what my African friend did—their choice of being criminals rather than men of honor is a result of their own attitudes and America’s continued guilt-ridden PC attitude that blacks have to be ‘taken care of.’ How does this help you? It’s insulting, yet blacks endorse it! By now it should be obvious that this policy is destroying you, and yet you continue it.


"Your universities are aiding and abetting the enemy by insisting that America give more visas to foreign students and overlook background checks. Why? Well, partly because they are the bastions of liberalism. But it is also because Americans don’t want to work hard in the un-glamorous and damned difficult fields of science. All of your top scientists in America are either Indian, Muslim, or Chinese. Why aren’t your children doing this? You are constantly being compromised when you have enemy nations creating technology in your land and sending it back home to use against you. They have even stolen from you, but your own press downplays it! How can you be so deliberately suicidal?

"Do any of you know what Mean Time Between Failure means? It is the guaranteed time that a new technology can last before it needs to be replaced. Say that a part is created for the space shuttle that has an MTBF of 2000 hours. In countries that are your enemies, they will make it only to last 1000 hours. I know this is done—I’ve seen it. Do you see how insidious this is? They are not only stealing your technology, but ‘dumbing down’ the products they send you, all in an effort to destroy you. Do you see now? Are you ever going to stop apologizing for defending yourself? Are you ever going to wake up and stop this policy of self-destruction? Why are you doing this? If America is brought down, then Islam and Communism will rule the world. I’ve seen both, which is why America must remain the predominant power in the world."



There’s that phrase again about waking up. I think it’s time that America stop sleeping so much. For a few more moments of rest we are compromising our future. Try getting any sleep then, America!


Stop sleeping, giant. You’re late for school, and you can’t afford that. You’re already behind in your lessons.


Keep the faith, bros, and in all things courage

I rest my case.

LDS perspective on law, right/wrong, and the Godly-inspired Constitution

Latest from Latter-day conservative:



Harold B. Lee     

Harold B. Lee
Quotes on Freedom, America, Constitution, Liberty, Etc…

"Youth must never forget that this the government of the United States was established “According to the laws and constitution of the people, which (God) has suffered to be established. . . . That every man may act in doctrine and principle . . . according to the moral agency which (God) has given unto him, that every man may be accountable for his own sins in the day of judgment. Therefore, it is not right that any man should be in bondage one to another.” It was to accomplish this lofty purpose basic to all liberty that God “established the Constitution of this land by the hands of wise men whom (he) raised up unto this very purpose.” (D&C 101:77–80.) Contained within the principles of that great heaven-inspired document is the message of this Church to the world in this fateful hour. Except the spirit of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and principles contained within the Constitution of the United States are inherent in world plans now being formulated, they are but building on sand and the Lord is not in that building."

"I have faith in the future of this promised land of America and in its institutions of representative government, but more than that, I have faith in you, the youth of America, to build even more securely on the foundations laid by the faith and devotion of your pioneer fathers. That you as the youth of the Church would have an important part to play in preserving the ideals of this great country as quoted by one who was very close to him. I quote the words of Eliza R. Snow: “I heard the Prophet Joseph Smith say ‘that the time would come when this nation would so far depart from its original purity, its glory, and its love of freedom and the protection of civil and religious rights, that the Constitution of our country would hang, as it were, by a thread.’ He also said that this people, the sons of Zion, would rise up and save the Constitution and bear it off triumphantly.” (Eliza R. Snow, 1870, Women of Mormondom by Tullidge.)

"So today is no time for youth to whimper the refrain of the defeated and retire to the fancied security of the regimented state. Today is the day for youth to gird themselves with the armor of peace, having as their weapons “the shield of faith . . . and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.” (Eph 6:16–17.)
"We urge members of the Church and all Americans to begin now to reflect more intently on the meaning and importance of the Constitution, and of adherence to its principles."
"Men may fail in this country, earthquakes may come, seas may heave beyond their bounds, there may be great drought, disaster, and hardship, but this nation, founded on principles laid down by men whom God raised up, will never fail. This is the cradle of humanity, where life on this earth began in the Garden of Eden. This is the place of the new Jerusalem. This is the place that the Lord said is favored above all other nations in all the world. This is the place where the Savior will come to His temple. This is the favored land in all the world. Yes, I repeat, men may fail, but this nation won’t fail. I have faith in America; you and I must have faith in America, if we understand the teachings of the gospel of Jesus Christ. We are living in a day when we must pay heed to these challenges.
"I plead with you not to preach pessimism. Preach that this is the greatest country in all the world. This is the favored land. This is the land of our forefathers. It is the nation that will stand despite whatever trials or crises it may yet have to pass through."
Ezra Taft Benson  

Ezra Taft Benson
Quotes on Freedom, America, Constitution, Liberty, Etc…

"On what basis can we morally resist tyranny?

I say to you with all the fervor of my soul that God intended men to be free. Rebellion against tyranny is a righteous cause. It is an enormous evil for any man to be enslaved to any system contrary to his own will. For that reason men, 200 years ago, pledged their lives, fortunes, and sacred honor.
No nation which has kept the commandments of God has ever perished, but I say to you that once freedom is lost, only blood – human blood – will win it back."
"The Founding Fathers understood the principle that “righteousness exalteth a nation” (Prov 14:34), and helped to bring about one of the greatest systems ever used to govern men. But unless we continue to seek righteousness and preserve the liberties entrusted to us, we shall lose the blessings of heaven. Thomas Jefferson said, “The price of freedom is eternal vigilance.” The price of freedom is also to live in accordance with the commandments of God. The early Founding Fathers thanked the Lord for His intervention in their behalf. They saw His hand in their victories in battle and believed strongly that He watched over them.

"The battles are not over yet, and there will yet be times when this great nation will need the overshadowing help of Deity. Will we as a nation be worthy to call upon Him for help?"

(Ezra Taft Benson, Teachings of Ezra Taft Benson, pg. 601; from an address given at the Provo Freedom Festival, Provo, UT, 29 Jun 1986)


"If we do not accept the existence of a Supreme Being; that God is the source of moral law, what more do we have to offer than Marx?…

Freedom is an eternal, God-given principle. There is no genuine happiness without freedom, nor is there any security or peace without freedom. After traveling in practically all of the free countries of the world and several times behind the Iron Curtain, I say that Marxism is the greatest evil in this world and the greatest threat to all we hold dear.
Of all sad things in the world, the saddest is to see a people who have once known liberty and freedom and then lost it. I have seen the unquenchable yearning of the human heart for liberty on two unforgettable occasions. These experiences are indelibly etched on the memory of my soul."
( Source: Delivered to the International Freedoms Conference. Philadelphia. Pennsylvania. October 26, 1979 )

(Listen up, critical-thinking impaired OWS!)

"And if the time should come when you are associated with groups that take delight in tearing down our American way of life, then they seem to enjoy pointing out the weaknesses of our free enterprise system – and it has weaknesses; it has weaknesses because it’s operated by men and women who are full of weaknesses – but when those times come, when our system is criticized, just keep in mind the fruits of the system, the great blessings that have come to us because of our American way of life. No group of people have ever attained the standard of living which is ours. And so let’s become acquainted with what has been accomplished. It’s all right to criticize; it’s all right to try and improve our American way of life; but in doing so, 1et’s not surrender, let’s not give up, let’s not jeopardize that system which has made America great."
( Source: “The LDS Church and Politics”, BYU Devotional, December 1, 1952 )


"I don’t know how you feel, my brethren and sisters, but I’d rather be dead than to lose my liberty. I have no fear we’ll ever lose it because of invasion from the outside. But I do have fear that it may slip away from us because of our own indifference, our own negligence, as citizens of this land. And so I plead with you this morning that you take an active interest in matters pertaining to the future of this country."
