U.S. Syria Policy of Disestablishmentarianism

Destabilizing effects of the Obama administration policy toward Syria are self-evident. Appearing to encourage the Arab Spring of uprisings across the Middle East with his first term Cairo speech the administration followed up with support for the overthrow of the Qaddafi administration and repeatedly demanded that Syrian President Assad 'step down'.

Appearing to be an organizing element of the illegal revolt against the Syrian Government with a nod to the 'friends of Syria' movement supplying cash and weapons to the rebels the Obama administration must have thought the Assad government would be an easy one to take down, and that was a sophomoric mistake. The Assad government does represent a sizable ethnic and religious minority that has no place to go in the land and water crazy middle east. Any reasonable assessment of the prospects for a Syrian civil war would have recognized that it would be exceedingly bloody and would go on for year. That sort of chaotic and pathetic process that might or might not result in a Muslim Brotherhood Sunni government taking power eventually was not a stabilizing course for the U.S. government to pursue.

It became obvious that any Sunni terror and rebel movement would attract quite a few international terrorists seeking for the opportunity to ply their trade and that would be bad for Iraq and Lebanon as well. A stable Syria was far less a threat to regional politics and those of the United States than an unstable Syria under protracted assault.

Before the Arab Spiring and the rise of a theoretical attack upon Syria by mufsidoon with Obama administration encouragement no one or few were being killed in Syria. After several years of civil conflict perhaps 174,000 have been killed. Something like Democrat Party adult abortion services provided with no blame. How pragmatically cruel that is.

One might wish to liberate Syria and provide some sort of secularized democratic government perhaps with a benevolent strongman like Saddam Hussein and his Ba'ath party. Michael Aflaq invented the Ba'ath party in Damascus before it made its way to Iraq. Administration policy seems to run in a full circle of incomprehension of what it is going about or how the presence of an ethnic minority sectarian government in Syria might balance political forces regarding Israel, Iraq, Iran and the Lebanon. It is as if the administration believes a Sunni caliphate would bring democracy, womens' and homosexual liberation to the area; it won't. The actual nuevo caliphate of Syria-Iraq is drastically cruel and purges non-same sects people.

So the Obama administration had some luck recently in air attacks on the Caliphate in Iraq-that's fine as far as it goes, yet they also claim a right to bomb in Syria, and that is a concern. It is illegal and though the administration has said it can bomb the Caliphate wherever it likes that runs roughshod over international law. The administration must be very careful not to bomb any Syrian government targets in any way if it does not want to seem to be just prosecuting aggressive war against Syria. What kind of impression does the U.S.A. make on the world when it uses extraordinary rendition, captures and tortures suspects and says it will bomb any damn place it likes in a good cause? The U.S. government may think that global corporatism is the only possible good and that concentrated wealth is the ideal realization of democracy , free speech and justice yet probably some wouldn't agree.

Containing and reducing the rising Caliphate forces of ISIS requires turning off support for terrorist revolutionaries in Syria entirely. Mopping up and removing terrorists from that region would be a challenging and time consuming process. It is unlikely the administration would wish to appear to follow such a course because it would implicitly recognize the failure of its existing policy. Obviously one feels sorrow for the Syrian civilians that suffered so much during the civil war. Yet as in the European vacation film with Chevy Chase where some British fellow kept being injured whenever Chase tried to be of help, the Syrians too seem to be harmed when the administration tries to help. In time with the return of Christian missionaries and the development of peace with a profusion of low-cost technology perhaps civil trade and commerce and independence will become a social habit and the rule of gang terrorists will wither away.

If one imagines and administration in 2009 assessing the time required to bring about a successful popular revolt in Syria any sort of cold logic should have guessed that it would take at least 6 or 7 years and cost a quarter of a million lives. Jihad is the modern way of civil conflict against non-sectarian opposition force governments and that brings a sort of Universal terrorist conscription of military age males to war . That sort of social environment is devastating, time consuming and impractical. It would be better to let technological dispersion bring about a peaceful transition or evolution or a more fair political state.

The Obama administration ideas of what a post-Assad Syria would be like must be as wrong as those made by the Bush administration on the costs of rebuilding Iraq being 15 billion dollars-about as much as American Express paid to the Government to resolve the bad loans policy litigation. American government ought not encourage civil conflicts that cannot be completed within their own administration and that a following government may have no interest in pursuing. In that case the investment of treasure and blood as V.P Chaney was wont to say, may in in vain and seven devils return to inhabit the dwelling after it has been swept clean.

Tarts de Guerre and the Broadcast Media

The head chopping of Jim Foley by British Caliphate cadre exemplifies the dangers to media of becoming embedded with the terror tart of the week. The broadcast media besides being an essential enemy of normal formation of democrat opinions as they cover and expropriate every issue to conform to their opinion of it are a lot of neo-anachronistic predators continuing to hog the airwaves for the rich when the airwaves should be allocated to high-tech internet populism with a geographic citizen tie, are ambassadors of American objectivist popular philosophy. The philosophy of the media is of a neo-crank phenomenal, posture and preen without reason quasi-Zarathustrian over empowerment of the ignorant nature. Even so we feel sorry about head chopping-that isn’t a Christian activity.

If Anderson Cooper or Peter Kenyon were sought to become embedded with ISIS to report on their situation from the inside we expect they would get chopped too. Since the Obama administration encouraged civil disorder in Syria that directly benefited the rise of ISIS and media coverage of the event developed too along that tack it is somewhat silly that a response considering bombing ISIS in Syria without the consent of President of Syria Assad would be considered. An NPR interrogator asked former Ambassador to Syria Ford why we can’t bomb ISIS in Syria and Ford replied ‘Assad hasn’t asked us to so it wouldn’t be legal’. Even so the stimulation of civil war in Syria was supported by the Obama administration and the dumping of journalists for capture naturally followed. Ambulance chasers need to be careful not to get run over too.

American foreign policy that runs about like a chicken with its head cut off flip-flopping sides seeking someone to bomb would not be intelligent. A stable Syrian government that perhaps slowly adjusts to the presence of a large internal proletariat hostile to its existence could morph to a pragmatically continuing state with associates with their own international ties and freedom to travel. Arrangements in ethnic border security within and among various Middle Eastern states can occur as the redistribution of Venn diagrammatic component elements may correspond to desirable non-violent political associates. Such developments are not encouraged through crass civil war and civil disorder.

Science FIction Novel- Temporal Cross Currents (free download)

My science fiction novel Temporal Cross Currents may be downloaded free at…

 http://www.amazon.com/Temporal-Currents-Garrison-Clifford-Gibson/dp/1300178949

The history of writing the book is perhaps worth retelling here. Temporal Cross Currents version 2014 has origins in a science fiction college course that I took during summer semester 1989 at the University of Alaska-Fairbanks. Because I had earlier written a short science fiction story called The Chamber about Mars I sent out naively without copyright registration in 1988 I decided that another try at writing something for publication would be more documented. Eventually I put together a story called Altereal Components and in 1990, I believe it was, I t registered it with the U.S. copyright office. In that story was formed the beginning of the present Temporal Cross Currents.

 A little background. In 1975 I enlisted in the U.S. Army though something of a c.o. I had just arrived in San Francisco and wanted to leave. A minister suggested I might make a difference if I enlisted when I asked him about it. We had made a few calls on members of the flock. I stayed in the church basement, I shook hands with the candidate that ran against George Moscone at a church social. As soon as I got to Ft. Wood and everyone left for Christmas holiday, I made a story up in order to get discharged. I got an honorable discharge and left for many years of painting and odd jobs around the U.S.A. In 1982 with the El Salvidor civil war and the threat of communism in central America I thought my prior service was not helpful, so I choose to lie about my prior military service and enlist as a combat engineer trainee in the Oregon National Guard. Though stressful going back to Ft. Wood concealing the prior time at Ft. Wood I did very well and became a combat engineer. Returning to Portland where I had finished a computer programming course in 81, I couldn’t find work and went skydiving a little instead. I transferred to the Washington Guard and attended a drill before returning to Alaska, going to serve in Hondorus or wherever never panned out That war faded away during the Reagan administration.

 In Alaska I joined the Guard and learned about 80 mm mortars, attended Air Assault School and transferred to the Army Reserve for some carpentry-masonry training in Fairbanks. Wintering in Fairbanks three years I wrote some science fiction, took college courses and fell through rotten ice head from below by discharges from a power plant, after walking home with my pants frozen I lay on the floor of my room for a couple of days in the dark feeling the cold blood move around to my heart. Eventually in January would hitchhike down the Alaska highway to Georgia where I worked briefly at a giant fish processing plant in search of a mid-semester college to take two courses at in order to take an A.A. at the Univ of Alaska-Juneau.

 I believe it was after I returned to Alaska from the Georgia via Maine to Honolulu and Anchorage with a slipped disk and body surfing on that wrong beach at Oahu where the waves break too steeply into the sand that the Reserve Unit sent me to Chemical School at Fort McClelan where I reconoittered a cemetery. Having seen Return of the Living Dead Part II? before enlisting I was up for that. I got a perfect p.t. score at Ft. McClellanfor a while running quite a bit –miles and miles before going active around 6 minutes per mile. To make a long story short, in 1989 I enlisted in the regular army, attended Stinger School and hoped to be stationed in Europe where I had traveled twice in 1987 flying on that PanAM Lockerbie route to London a little before solstice time once. The day before I was to get a security clearance the Soviets withdrew a quarter million troops from East Germany and a drill Sergeant handed me a letter at Ft. Bliss from a Russian women’s magazine that I had sent a science fiction story to from U.A.F. in 1988 rejecting it as too violent. I had skyrockets being fired off from Coney Island and I didn’t think that too violent.

 I realized that with the end of the cold war the media would be the big problem levering me while in the service so I decided to get out and revealed the facts about the 1975 enlistment and was given an honorable discharge for erroneous enlistment. I was happy enough with that, especially since after taking off a cast from torn ligaments and going AWOL to visit Denver from Ft. Bliss climbing over Mt. Franklin in the dark and turning myself in at Ft. Carson when there was a military alert of recall for the impending Panama problem. I fly back to Ft. Bliss and got manacles put on and missed out seeing Miss America who was also on the flight. I had a G.T. score of 145 then and was reluctant to leave the Army. Maybe I could have had a great career and fired a gun or something. I will never know if I could have excelled at rocket shooting. No MIG season was scheduled for shooting down any time in that foreseeable future. Anti-Aircraft drones might have made human anti-aircraft shooters nearly obsolete already.

  I had a vision of something bad happening in Fairbanks before going AWOL though-something like a disturbance in the force, and it turned out that some girl-Kara Zastrow had been murdered and hidden in the snow while her killers left and enlisted in the Marines. I wondered if the Russian Kara Sea had any relationship symbolically to her death.

  I thought an honorable discharge was better than time at Ft. Levensworth so I took a discharge. Well thousands and thousands were getting discharged soon since peace was breaking out all over Europe. That was the dream of ending the cold war peacefully and with prosperity that was so important to generations-my Dad was a four year Navy veteran of W.W. II and always thought peace was better than war. He was a little mockish of the security guard work, and sent me a replica terra cotta warrior from the Shang dynasty of Beijing.

 In 1989 I was completing the undergraduate work that I needed for a Bachelor’s degree. I was taking courses at the University of Alaska Fairbanks while enrolled in Excelsior College (then Regents College) of the University of the State of New York in order to save a year of superfluous college costs. I took a year’s credits through the CLEP credit by examination process. That 30 credit clump was admitted at Excelsior. I took a Bachelor’s degree in spring 1990 as well as an Associate’s from the University of Alaska S.E. and was optimistic about being admitted to the U.A.F. M.A. in Northern Studies Program with a 3.8 undergraduate grade point average inclusive of CLEP scores.

 I wasn’t admitted to U.A.F., and so with a history as a traveling house painter with a two new college degrees I looked forward to traveling around the U.S.A. hunting for a job. That plan was delayed two years as I remained in Alaska and worked on a rural lot before setting off to search for work and a graduate school. During this time I was developing writing method. My degree work was in history, philosophy and English-not just English. I had work to do in developing narrative style and writing tools-there really is quite a bit too generating good, well structured stories. A philosopher or inventor may want to just move forward, while a writer might want to carefully polish prose; the two interests present a little conflict, like clashing waves at sea moving in different directions.

 In the 90s I attended the Houston Graduate School of Theology briefly before my student loans were stopped for some unknown reason and I left school. Even a urine testing lab I was going to be hired at was purchased by a company that put an immediate hiring freeze in place..no work.  More than twenty years later I found another Friends theology school and resumed taking theology coursework-that’s another story. So I continued working on writing adding on to Alterreal Components when I could. I added pieces on to the story while riding a bicycle around the U.S.A. Writing in dozens of public libraries when not searching for something to paint I had an hour here, and hour there to scrawl a few lines or delete some carriage returns.

 In 1996 while George Bush was Governor of Texas I was a graveyard security officer at the L.B.J. State Office building. During this time period I camped out with the fire ants and added much to Alterreal Components transforming it to Alterwall Objectives. The story thus became a small novel and I took a new copyright on it.

 A novel written generally while homeless in little portions here and there is put together something like Johnny Cash’s song about building a car one piece at a time except that one’s thought is the factory where the parts come from. Writing the novel and continuing to try to get some quality editing time on it was challenging. Eventually I bought a used Toshiba notebook that weighs a ton with DOS on it and retyped the novel into that for a little editing. I got a hundreds of carriage returns placed in it that would take another 7 years to entirely remove. To get the dos edited story onto word an Apple computer was used to convert the file and that resulted in a decade of small editing problems. With all of the time consumed on working on the novel I learned that the major problem I had I writing a novel was the actual physical opportunity to find a quiet place to write with the right word processing equipment in place and with electricity and the time to work. Actually I never did put all of those elements together.

 So instead of a secure, quiet writing environment I continued reading philosophy, science, history and religious topics and developed new ideas to throw into the novel since I had no where else to stick ‘em. Rather than composing a smoothly flowing novel I tossed in a myriad of separate ideas and post hoc ironed out the intermarginal faultlines. Because I added in entire new pieces to the novel that were short stories before I had to adapt the point of view of the author. Retroactively I changed what began as an omniscient narrative to a first person narrative. I learned only later that William Falkner’s book ‘As I Lay Dying’  that he wrote while working a job as a security guard at a power plant, tells a story from the first person narrative point of view of several characters in the book alternating from one chapter to the next; a brilliant construction method I don’t use here but that I appreciate since it’s a good way to write if one doesn’t have a smoothly supported writing environment. Faulker had to go to work, make rounds and maybe write and perhaps write a self-standing chapter and was able to resume writing another day without needing to smoothly get back into the writing persona of his character narrating the story the day before. Going to work would have interrupted that thought line.

 I learned much while working on this book. One thing I learned was to never start writing a novel if you won’t have the opportunity to finish it in one or maybe two places-that is a direct, continuous well-enough supported writing situation. I have since written two small novels in an unelectrified yet moderately secured environment though U had to finish them elsewhere. St. Novilistricka Factors’ first draft was written in about five weeks though it took more than two years to get enough time to complete it-and the completion was done in a fairly adverse environment with one winter spent camping on the ground in Anchorage where I broke the computer screen rolling over on it in my sleeping bag with a hip trying to keep the battery from freezing. A Universal Widget was written in a similar, unsupported environment. Maybe in retirement I will get an opportunity to write with an electrical outlet at home.

 An excerpt from Temporal Cross Currents…

"Don't every write a popular song starting with the words Well I ". The cadres howled and cheered so wildly that the Praetorian Guard dispersed tranquil mist onto the ultra-marine trainees who hushed a bit.

 A new rhythmic drumbeat like syncopated chant of "Big Dog, Big Dog wang dang bop du rop rup" rose from the thousands of ultra-Warsops. Prissy gazed benevolently down upon them, giving them a full turning profile and raised hand wave of acknowledgment.

 Prissy continued his speech, lasting several minutes until fog was allowed to approach through the field molecule screen to enshroud the trainees as shades in an orphic underworld of sunless mist. They were marched by D.I.'s of the Jaws of Death with staccato cadences extolling salad nearly off the bay cover and back to gel boot camps All-pine and Borscht.

 Brigadier Thortez and Colonel Bold talked head to head behind the sound and projectile screen that Prissy disdained during his discourses to the masses. Prissy approached, his baldhead shining in orange winter sunlight on the hammerhead balcony above the fog and said;

 "Hyrim develop it quicker. I'm ready to knock out Corporate know. My bones ache to leap into control of the Solar System. We're losing too many warriors to Corporate mining camps and my sedition can't happen if they're all out in the asteroids, the Jovan System, Nep-tunes or beyond when the rotting door of Corporate Monopoly is ripe to be kicked in. We'll obliterate Bigg Comm simultaneously for unchallengeable control.

 We'll lose the element of surprise if we withhold fulfilling orders for miners. I suspect the great basins and backbones store of recruits isn't unlimited so we can't just get more either. Higher numbers of Asian Big-Comm allegiants brainwashed to loyalty to Imperial Anarchy would lead to an unreliable cadre. I want the reserve shelves of ultra-Warsops filled and complete with loyal, malleable, gullible captives programmed to serve me before it too is drained off to the outback of the system" the Emperor slammed down a fist on a molecular projection field battle plan for his general staff to regard.

 Brigadier Hyrim Thortez said, "Emperor Warp, the decoy planets can only be pre-fabricated as fast as we can pre-judge them. If the Jaws of Death go too far in the sculpt works at Almedia Springs there could be pre-designed disasters equivalent to crashing Phoebus into Mars. Instant planet reconfigurations, shells, Dyson Spheres, and illusory field decoys even with ultrue-computers require a lot of testing."

 Colonel Bold contributed "Tawooth will rule the Solar System myne Emperor Warp. It is the inertial will of the Pluralverse! Maoist, nihilist oligarchs of Corporate Interplanetary tyranny can't be allowed to succeed in depopulating Earth, turning it into an arboreal vacation area and deprive us of the ultra-Warsops we must have to save the twelve planets!

 "Thank you Sancho, you're perceptive as usual" Prissy replied enjoying the Colonel's eager and whole-hearted support of his ideas. "We will succeed in terra-forming the twelve planets and all Corporate outposts eventually be assured.

  The Emperor Warp of Tawooth has made preparations for an Armada of Stealth Space Ultra-Marine transports to be launched from magnetic rail guns in the backbone. They will rendezvous clandestinely at a blackbody sphere beyond Venus and attack en masse the totality of Corporate H.Q.'s and militfacts from one edge of the gravity sink to the other."

 "Glorious Leader, we must have patience and wait for the perfection of the inflatable decoy Earths before the assault on Corporate H.Q.s and militfacts proceeds or Corporate forces will have us dead to rights sitting as ducks in the Nation Of Tawooth on Earth should elements of the Corporate live-fire fleet survive to counter-attack" General Thortez exhorted.

 "Of course Brigadier, of course; I always trust my special councilors. Yet we shall take the live fire fleet en passant mon amis" Prissy Bar-Warp dismissed munificently.

 "Our timing will be flawless, and as simple as was Alexander's unraveling of the Gordian knot which was said to be the key to conquering Asia. So shall I wait and begin no victory before its time?"

 Did the Pluralverse recur eternally? That is does a metaphysical time-space field bigger than the one of this Universe exist that contains our Universe to replay it again forever like a recorded hologram opera from end to end? Is the Pluralverse alternately like a self-winding yo-yo that explodes from a singularity of gravitationally compacted space time with anti-gravity expanding it the other direction in turn compacting gravity bordering the space-time pluralverse until compacting to an opposite-space-time singularity to explode with gravitational expansion unit anti-gravity is again compacted with all mass-time to a singularity and so on ad nauseum?

 Does it unwind through dozens of billions or trillions of years on each circuit side and restart? Did life, perception, sense data and what is knowable as experience recur as a pre-determined fact with just the self-deluding seemingness of real, free intelligence? If it does recur forever is it all determined by some original, undetermined first cause that set and resets the seemingly infinite loop of the pluralverse in substance and motion to recur infinitely?

 Would movements, transports, perception and data be determined in advance as is the redetermination that the evolutionary Universe would recur eternally? How was that determined and so on in the infinite regress of nonsapient determinations? Is it just that the appearance of choices or the need for the determinations is illusory if the pluralverse does recur forever as it were in a possible dumb design?

 The Tawoothian brethren estimated the chances to find wiggle room in the redeterminism of the Pluralverse though they were aware of the possibility that the perception of time and being is infinite in all directions, and the apparent infinite deja vous recurrence syndrome such as Frederick Nietzche had kicking a boulder on an evening walk at Lake Lucerne was a compound of the infinite nature of time examined as an instant clump singly by a perceiver trying to be, and naturally somewhat different than the infinite motion of mass in an infinite combination of potential perceivable or describable relativistic abstract relations as a reflective intellect is able to be cognizant of things-for-themselves per se.

The mind of the perceiver in other words may have a recursive psychological imaging of the complete complex of compresent percepts and mistake that seemingness for an insight into the fundamental nature of the physical pluralverse.

 It was at least clear to the Brethren that the probability of the recurrence of an experience is the content and basis for scientific judgment. And that which can be applied from the lessons of humanity's history is predicated on recurrence in abstract situational form. 

 The masses of free anarchists undragooned into the service of Emperor Warp but living in the Reamerigo Nation of Tawooth lived the Neitchzian error as a patriotic call to survival of the most fit usually unaware of the finer points of the consideration of the deployment of the matter of space-time in their brutish, desperate and short post-Chaos existence. The Ministers of Terror taught that eternal recurrence called for domination of the law abiding by anarchist supermen. The ignorant savages were easily converted to anarchy and terror if they were not naturally indoctrinated.

 Yet the Order did what it could to provide ultra-marine trainees with unreflective inhumanism and greed in the cult of Prissy. Warp's espousa - an Empress named Liprule, coached the cadres to focus on business, war and herself instead of the distracting doctrine of Terror.

 Emperor Prissy would strive to lead Tawooth in a reconquista of the twelve-planet system until one commensurate with his grandeur could be found.

Latent & Emergent Dangers in Post-Hilbert Curve v. 1.0 Militarization of Government Policy

World oil supply is an important element of global economic policies. The Hilbert curve anticipating peak oil production acting with oil prices and supply and demand have substantially effect recent geopolitical structures. The development of fracking to a certain extent has blown up thee Hilbert curve and set a substantial future of reliance on oil as a primary fuel of global economic engines and taxation. Because of America’s historical reliance on that previously scarce commodity oil corporations have been an overly influential power in the U.S. political system. In Alaska for instance, Proposition 1 will decide of Sarah Palin’s progressive tax on oil corporations should be restored or if hefty tax cuts for big oil should remain.

Oil corporations and the military-industrial complex comprise a significant portion of the U.S. national economy. Because of the desire of that sector to take the Presidency in order to implement it’s favorite policies with sometimes costly to the taxpayer consequences it is worth considering what might happen if another oil exec sits in the White House or equally as bad, if the a Clinton legacy continues to warp the Democrat Party.

If an oily President is elected in 2016 it would not be as if a field grade military officer were elected to the Senate House or Presidency where civilians prefer to control the military rather than vice verse, instead an oily President would need to create policies favorable to oil corporate profits nationally and internationally and that would not be as simple as it might have been before the fracking of the Hilbert curve.

If national oil supply is regarded as an abstract value X and that of every nation on Earth designated X1,X2,X3… then it is notable that the quantity of oil of all 180 Xs each of which might be regarded as  variable Q1, Q2,Q3… Those values are changed significantly by fracking recovery of existing fields in relation to the political-economic policies as well as oil facts for each nation X.

An oily President traditionally needs to ascertain the Q for each X and determine what corporate interests are regarding supply and demand in relation to oil corporate profits. Oil corporation Supply (S) is contingent upon political relationship to each X and in some cases cartels of Xs. Sometimes war occurs to change X regimes in relation to its Q and protocol with corporate S.

The complexity arising because of fracking effects on Q and S make political relations more complex too. It is entirely possible for an American President to mistake the effects of a war to change the leadership of an X upon S, or the need to do so. Q may change at any time, yet as with diamonds too much supply drives down the value and profit. It is possible that wars to restrict supply may arise in the future as well as support for rebel movements that revolt against a national X leader too willing to increase Q and compete with S.

Neither oily President nor military industrialists seeking political leadership for the opportunity to increase or defend foreign Q for S will find stable, stationary targets to interact with. The variables of the X series will alter significantly and the values for Q locally and globally will change too. The change in global oil Supply-GS1 to plentiful the next 30 years will retard development of alternate, non-greenhouse gas emitting energy sources and change the existing paradigm for resource wars over oil supply and development. One hopes the U.S. electorate is able to persevere in an alternate energy development policy course free of the irrational influence of corporate oil.

National economic interests ought to be pursued independently of Q so that oil supply in the supply demand curve is set more by phenomenal X policies and taxation rather than on either GS1 or S rather than vice versa. When oily Presidential leadership confers political empowerment upon corporate oil to determine S and its value paradoxically the political stability and supply-demand curve might tend to serve to wreak creative destruction upon other potential rivals to power and energy domestically and internationally.

Looting, Cop Shop Problems, East St. Louis & Organized Crime

In order not to start this essay with a hard technical subject on a hard technical note I will mention another news story in the headlines-the importation of foreign dogs. Evidently there are vast puppy mills in China breeding teeming millions for export to the U.S.A. Tragically a quarter of those young pups die on the way to the U.S.A. where they might have led full lives growing to adulthood. Even so we may ask, are American dogs so decimated by poly chlorinated biphenyl’s, so effeminized by chemicals introduced to their precious bodily fluids through water, owners so brainwashed by federal judicial promotion of homosexuality that their fecundity levels have crashed low enough that scarcity of young American dogs requires foreign pup imports for pooch aficionados?

http://www.foxnews.com/us/2014/08/16/hand-grenades-becoming-key-weapon-in-mexican-cartels-arsenals-say-authorities/

Of all the stupid stories of globalism that of importing puppies to the U.S.A. might be at the top of the list. If the cost of nationally produced American dogs is so high that it’s cheaper to send pups to the U.S.A. from China, citizens could benefit from selling there own mutts to the dog-hungry themselves. Probably the U.S.A. and even the U.N. ought to ban the commercial trade in dogs altogether and let every dingo have its day. Local evolution in dog varieties probably would be better and more variegated with strict international bans on the trafficking of dogs. If someone wants to adopt an international dog they should need to travel to that foreign mill and get if for-themselves.

http://www.cnn.com/2014/08/16/us/missouri-teen-shooting/

Now to the Ferguson story of the month- One doesn’t want institutional terrorism defining the parameters of American existence. Liberty from tyranny and varieties of subtle social sedition are necessary requisites for the genius of economic invention to act freely within a democratic society. Mobs within or without government corrupt democracy and bring economic decay over time.

Community crime organizers have received much support from technology in recent decades. Flash mobs may be summoned with Twitter, global crime cartels might confer with Skype, international and local drug liaisons may be directed with cellular smart phones encrypted or not. Police summoned into dark, rainy nights to moderate ugly crowds replete with hidden weapons ought not respond with the equipment of Andy and Barney or naiveté of Fred Flintstone.

It is challenging to find rationale for the appearance of flash mobs in the street as a first response to circumstances of potential excessive use of force by police before lawful, rational and objective means of civil government review are exhausted.

The killing of an 18 year old black male in East St. Louis by a police officer is another example of the 5 to 1 ratio of those killed by police to those police killed. Most of the people killed by police are felons. If Michael Brown of Ferguson had actually perpetrated an armed robbery that day of his death then he too was a felon though the police officer didn’t know that. That is one of the difficult points that few of the media have mentioned about police amid the calls for a kindler, gentler method of police work; the police are encountering people that may be dangerous felons who will try to kill them.

In the course of virtually any other sort of government work in the U.S.A. the worker does not have to interact blindly with a citizen not knowing if he or she is a dangerous felon that will seek to kill them rather than be taken in to custody. The felony edge in first-strike on the officer in order to escape is significant. For the police officer a slowness of response or an overly trusting nature could result in loss of their own life. That is why civilians ought to cooperate with police officers as if they understood the risk the police officer implicitly has in interacting with anyone.

Like other government and non-government workers policemen probably don’t prefer to be shoot or assaulted on the job, much less killed. Police unions and insurers alone might prefer that policemen remain inside armored vehicles during night mob gatherings rather than get out on the street in a line to confront angry mobs were stones, bricks and bullets might be thrown.

Military forces need to prepare for the next war rather than the last. Police forces to exist on the edge of tomorrow with technology used by citizens surging ahead along with media support to flank their capacity to defend a community from organized crime. A civil police force is a highly disciplined paramilitary unit with training in forensics, criminal organization systems analysis, infantry tactics, crowd control, investigation, apprehension, interpersonal hand to hand combat (in a time where youth may be revved up in wing chun, steroids, methamphetamines, gangsta rap, UBC, Jackie Chan and Jet Li movies) etc. Being a modern policeman is a challenging job. How many policemen encounter erratics from outside the community or within that do not even speak their own language?

The media sometimes believe that flash mobs are a civil rights affair and police a brutal bunch of Democrat Bull Connors throwbacks. Plainly police forces need to be racially inclusive rather than exclusive. Ferguson’s police force has only three blacks amid fifty-five officers. A minimum number of blacks ought to have been twenty since the community is preponderantly black. With such a stark racial line there is an inevitable social and racial antagonistic us/them relationship that develops macro-socially. That line should be effaced with the common knowledge that the police department is not racially exclusive of anyone and that the police work being done is for the security of the populous.

Police forces face a number of sophisticated technological challenges that will only increase in the decades ahead as the consumption of technology and sophistication of software builds a permanent condition of clear and present danger. It will be too simple to produce electronic machine guns operated by cute little robots with face recognition, or for international criminal organizers to infiltrate elements to stimulate politically explosive events. Volatility in mass economic structures accelerated with media p.r. events may induce cause-effect interpolations in order to shape things in an affirmative direction for any given criminal cause.

Plainly American citizens should pursue remedies other than the mob-in-the-street approach encouraged by media and demagogues to address perceived unfair political conditions. Politicians can set criteria for police departments that are quite under civilian control. One must wonder if most of the flash-mobs of East St. Louis are registered voters. One statistic said that something like 6% of Democrats actually voted in some recent election. Perhaps it is more fun and profitable in Ferguson to riot and loot than to vote.

If one were to do statistical research into police shooting of civilians in-depth the findings might be enlightening. I would guess that black policemen have about the same number of shootings as white. A black felon resisting arrest might not be happier about being arrested by a black officer than a white officer. A black officer probably cares about staying alive as much as a white officer and so might draw and shoot the suspect.

When last I examined the F.B.I. crime statistics during the Trayvon Martin incident as I recall there were about 50 policemen killed by felons annually, averaged in recent years. About 250 black felons were killed by policemen. It is worth remembering that T. Martin was not shot by a regular policeman as was Michael Brown who standing in the middle of the road for some unknown reason where a policeman found him before the fatal incident.

If the record of black on black killings of Chicago has any value for comparative analysis of police-civilian shootings it might be that black policemen would shoot blacks as readily as whites. In either case neither would be enthusiastic about shooting anyone because of the problems that follow if for no other reason. If hiring more black policemen brought an increase in the number of shootings of black felons and that brought a public call for the Andy & Barneyfication of police forces instead of better arrest procedures of deployment of better non-lethal weapons systems such as glue-guns and spring-loaded sticky capture nets the ability of police forces to deal with emergent globally-directed mob actions locally might be impinged.

Reactions to Michael Brown Death-Demilitarization

One wonders about the relevance of the issue of Michael Brown's death to demilitarization of U.S. police departments in the news. Michael Brown was evidently an armed robbery suspect perhaps stressed with contact by a police officer (who didn't know Brown had allegedly perpetrated a strong arm robber of a convenience store (not a pack of skittles, it was a box of cigars).

It is reported that as many as 25,000 terrorists are living in the U.S.A. today with more illegally and legally migrating over the border. The middle east is awash in explosives and bomb makers have already used cell phone detonators and perhaps downloaded apps from jihadi web sites to control the big bangs. One might anticipate that off the shelf family friendly open-source robots will evolve use as Muslim terror devices-perhaps as trigger men stationed at vulnerable locations. If it is unlikely that Canada is planning an invasion to recover Boston for Britain it is not certain that multi-national terrorists may not work with Mexican drug gangs to shoot up whatever city seems ripe and politically valuable.

The down side to police departments armed like a tank division run by Patton is that they may slay all local resistance to globalism or communist Chinese Corporate bosses across the sun-belt and Mid-west where subsidiaries are localized and primaries outsourced if the police are bought and paid for by billionaires or secret global cabals from the same Coconut Grove north of San Francisco the Illuminati hold conventions at. The N.S.A. may surveill police departments and record the conversations of officers planning to subvert the civil rights and freedoms of American citizens loyal to globalism and corporatism.

After days of riots and the grim visages from Ferguson a suburb in East St. Louis not to far from Cohokia-the site where archaeologists found great pyramids of the largest pre-Columbian civilization in North America that ever existed and where ruling dynasties sacrificed relatives of prior dynastic rulers in elegant ceremonial throat cuttings to assure a peaceful new government- the authorities have brought new peace giving up the name of the officer that shot the troubled yet formerly gentle giant with the hot cigars probably not on his person. This seems like a cultural problem-the kid existed in a deficient culture with low social goals, to much bad music lyrics and the hot August blight of poverty and inadequate bling for the buck. With protracted inadequate employment for laborers and a moving target of costly job training for jobs that don't really exist or were outsourced before graduation being a military killer or a cop is perhaps a better job prospect for American males that don't like Elton John music. If Brown could have avoided the dope and rap science leading to boosting cigars he would have lived someplace else I guess. If there was a priesthood of believers structure in churches instead of a hierarchical one people would be more involved and feel more like peers. Even decent theological minor pieces of systematic theology could be written by theologians for reading by ordinary Christians in small groups as part of a liturgy in a priesthood of believers service. Old Testament, New Testament and Systematic Theology readings-what opportunity!

Ukraine's Billionaire President Shells Civilians of Donetsk & Lugansk

Ukrainian billionaire President Petro Poroshenko's get tough policy with the Eastern Ukraine district of the former Russian homeland includes copious artillery shelling of independence-minded areas inclusive of places with civilians. Little western protest has arisen about the brutal Ukrainian tactics of pure violent aggression to slaughter opposition evidently. Some have thought those were Russian tactics of former eras, yet that is what one might expect from a military that is itself of a secessionist or irregular composition having since Ukraine was expropriated from Russia during the post-Soviet Yeltsin-Clinton confusion.

I hope Petroshenko doesn't launch mortars at Russian ethnics too, since the mortar shells are bad enough without the launchers being flung too perhaps from electric catapults as one might guess listening to broadcast media of recent conflicts.

Former Microsoft CEO Steve Balmer Wins Clippers for Corporatism

Continuing a tradition of Micorosoft CEOs taking other peoples property involuntarily relinquished (Bill Gates took Gary Kildal's CP/M (to DOS) operating system laundered through another company evidently in the time when copyright and patent laws for program code were murky with Gates making billions and billions and Kildal slumming as public television show co-host of The Computer Chronicles) former Microsoft CEO Steve Balmer has finally been given full legal approval to own the L.A. Clippers pro basketball team. That is the way corporate advantage works as people trash sorry old lawyers (maybe with Alzheimers) that weren't such nice people with properties better redistributed to the richest.

Donald Sterling used very politically incorrect speech in a private conversation, and that is cause enough to implement the corporate trickle-up rule. We deplore politically incorrect speech and the oppression of civil rights by fascists and other anti-democratic wise-guys, yet did Sterling fit that profile well enough for the trim? One wonders if the present CEO of Microsoft will eventually buy/comprar (use comprar if buy sounds somewhat queer) the Yankees? They had the champion home run hitter of the era before invention of steroids and the franchise may thus be a collector's item...

Humans 69% Cause for Rapid Glacial Melting Study Finds

Human caused global warming is the responsible for 69% of the quick global melting of glaciers. That melting of the cryosphere in the mountains especially matters to people that depend on glaciers for river water downstream such aas live in India. When the Himalayan glaciers disappear people may get thirsty and temperate areas desertified in a warmer climate.
