If the Soviet Red Army had Conquered West Berlin in 1989

The former Soviet Union started withdrawing its forces from East Germany in December 1988. I believe it was a quarter of a million soldiers that were pulled back. So if they had reversed course in 1989 and invaded West Berlin that would have caused fuel shortages in the Soviet Union for civil consumers of gasoline as all of the Soviet Army trucks would have required fuel.

Pink Floyd’s concert at the former Berlin Wall probably wouldn’t have happened. Instead, Metallica would have been commissioned to perform at the battle-line from the trench-works dug around Berlin to contain Soviet expansionism. A-10 Warthogs would have swirled menacingly around Berlin while vast right-wing fireworks displays followed by oil-based fog from machines would have confused Soviet Red Army forces.

If there were vast concentrations of explosives buried beneath Berlin in case of invasion they would have been detonated creating in effect, a vast sinkhole that eventually would have filled with rainwater and become a fishing spot of note.

Very likely static electric discharges across the sky would have followed a Soviet Red Army invasion of West Berlin. Tremendous Van De Graff field generators with stealth technology and fueled with synthetic cornohal would have been moved under cover of darkness near Berlin and cast crackling power lines over the city before it became a sinkhole. Then, with some softening up, the Meissner field would have taken effect and lifted the city to move it thirty miles west.

The psyops team having completely confused the opposition force would have allowed the decoy, holographic Berlin to remain when the real city moved west. It would have been the fake city of West Berlin that actually followed the sinkhole into the oblivion captured in the term; not a bite all day.

The Economic Challenge to the U.S.A.

Reforming capitalism; an upgrade in theory from Adam Smith’s Wealth of Nations paradigm published in 1776, is long over-due. It should attack the over-concentration of wealth and power once more as Adam Smith’s paradigm did regarding the monopoly on free trade de facto by the aristocracy. Too much concentrated wealth and power gives de facto monopoly of trade and the channels of capital flow to the 1% aristocrats of the present era.

While reforming capital theory and its application in the world it would be a good idea to integrate the new paradigm with an implicit ecological economic structure that advances economic enterprises that are synergetic with recovery of the planet’s ecospheric health.

Did Nikita Khrushchev Martinet the 1960 Presidential Election?

Election voter tampering probably goes on quite a bit in the world. While 12 Russians indicted by the Mueller team for trying to tamper with the 2016 Presidential election may seem insignificant since they didn't influence much. It does remind Americans that the world is full of election tamperers that should face justice.

It may not be too late to investigate the 1960 Presidential election and overturn the results. It is said that Chicago Mayor Dailey tampered with votes in effect throwing the decisive Illinois vote to John F. Kennedy. If Richard M. Nixon was the true winner it is time to correct that and make him so posthumously.

Was Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev a grand master martinet pulling the strings of American puppets gullible enough to vote for the Democrat candidate? Were Soviet GRU agents infiltrating Madison Avenue bewitching consumers with desires of decadence? Could My Favorite Martian and Mr. Ed have been deep covert extreme leftist communist plants?

Pres Trump, Like Churchill, Is Candid in Brit Politics

President Trump is providing a lesson to British politicians in candor and plain truth about the Brexit issue this week. They can use it unable as they are to get beyond "polishing the turd" on exit tactic planning.

President Trump gifted Brit PM Theresa May with a plain public line about the U.S. response to her wishy-washy half-backed plan to remain in the EU though not of it and thinking she could also have the U.S. free trade special relationship cake and eat it too.

President Trump's analysis of the prevailing Brexit plan that Brit foreign minister Boris Johnson resigned over in effect kicked the turd into the gutter.

British politicians are comfortable with byzantine bureaucratic treachery rather than plain talk. U.S. politicians are just indolent, backward thinking and incomprehending about reform parameters necessary to renormalize economic policy with ecospheric and security criteria. On both sides of the Atlantic they just want to have a freezer full of cash without accountability.

Ought it Not Be a Hate Crime to Hate Lima Beans?

A man charged with a federal hate crime for harassing a women wearing a Puerto Rico shirt shows the idiocy of the federal hate crimes law. If the man was perpetrating some sort of crime of assault then he should have been charged with that- yet federal hate crimes for being a partisan against a symbol? If he had harassed someone from Vermont that wouldn't have been a hate crime?  

The man harassing the women  in the video is probably perping a misdemeanor of some sort and even disorderly conduct. People harass people a lot. I was harassed by several hispanics from Chicago to Ashville N.C. riding a bus. In England while sitting in a rural restaurant a pair of guys started harassing me and wouldn't stop until I took out a sharp lock blade knife to clean the dirt under my fingernails. People use words much to harass strangers for whatever reason. It's hateful but is that a federal felony crime? Criminal offenses should be crimes if perped against anyone regardless of race, national or state origin, religion or personal sexual behavior (that isn't already a crime). If one wants to hate Boston for trading dumping Babe Ruth like a turd, can't they without looking over their shoulder for the G-men?

Laws are supposed to be objective and apply to all people that perp some objective activity. Hate crimes fails that standard royally because politics decides which symbols are protected. A complete list of protected symbols needs to be published on the Internet and updated regularly so people can hate a chance to experimentally hate them and argue about the hate-worthiness of federally protected symbols. Maybe the EPA and Justice could get that done together.

Who believes all those symbol haters are very bright? People have been killed for wearing a T-Shirt with some symbol of an opposing football team like the 49ers or Raiders in the wrong part of town.  Have Democrats been charged for hating government officials patronizing their restaurants as symbols of President Trump? If one wears a T-Shirt with a Che Guevara beret'd face at some sort of veteran's biker rally that might be problematically dangerous.  Does the Democrat Party hate the confederate flag?


If one wears an Uncle Sam shirt and is white in some parts of America that could be dangerous. People react to symbols really stupidly. Loyalists attack and hate on opposition symbols; that is just the way it is. Even overseas soccer fans have hated and clashed in hatred of sports rivals. Hate is a way of life unfortunately.

And people are trained to be passionate. A former President famously hated  brussel sprouts. Some youth have expressed hatred of lima beans. Advertising and video programming present strong emotion as a virtue. Performers of songs need to seem passionate and persuasive. Advertisers want people to emotionally react to symbols and labels, products and items that can be purchased as emotionally as possible so they would love to buy it. Who make ugly but efficient cars? Cars are as attractive as possible and used to be sold with attractive women sensuously caressing the car as the object of desire.

So Americans should be trained not to be too emotional if they want to avoid the paradigm of hate crimes written in to federal law. One can like one's home town sports team and mildly dislike the traditional rivals just a little bit. Hating them is out of the question though. I am sure at least the Democrat Party has eliminated hate of any sort of symbols from their collective behavior patternology (some hate words with the ology ending).

Sexual Violence at Okinawa Marine Bases; The Nominal Criterion

Sexual violence in the military is not unique to the eleven U.S. Marine bases on Okinawa. It also occurs in the military generally among American military personnel.
Some persons have enlisted in the Marines to escape civil crimes. I recall one high school girl who was murdered in Alaska by two fellows who enlisted in the Marines subsequently yet were tracked down and apprehended by the state police.
In just two years- 2015 to 2017, 65 Marines at Okinawa bases were jailed at courts-martial for sexual offenses. The warrior mentality may not be at the top of the moral food chain, although original sin corrupts everyone from the fellatio of a U.S. President by a student intern to the Marine at Okinawa convicted of bestiality.
War such as Marines are thrown in to does not occupationally attract the best and brightest kind of people. Dull, savage and loyal killers aren’t usually the kinder gentler souls writing calligraphy although there are some martial arts movies to that effect.
The morality of the Japanese occupation Army in the Philippines was not renowned for excellence. Even so, one would like impeccable warriors that are better than Lancelot at moral values; warrior-priests that would not step upon an ant unless ordered, who would then execute the order without trouble.
U.S. Marine Corps Sexual Violence on Okinawa

The nominal criterion is that there is a certain percentage of individuals that will perpetrate crimes. There may be specific training remedies and punishment configurations that would reduce the number of incidents. Yet the United States has an ineffective prison convict corrections philosophy domestically. It may not be reasonable to expect that the military would have a better system.

Wikipedia has an article on the 1995 case where three marines abducted and raped a 12 year old girl from Okinawa…
The trial concluded in March 1996. Prosecutors had asked for the maximum sentences for the men, 10 years each. The judge sentenced Gill and Harp to seven years' imprisonment; Ledet received six and a half years. Their families also paid "reparation money" to the family of the victim, a common practice in Japan.
The three men served prison terms in Japanese prisons and were released in 2003 and then given other than honorable discharge from the military. After release, Rodrico Harp decried prison conditions in Japan and said that the electronics assembly prison labor he was forced to do amounted to slave labor.

Ledet, who had claimed he did not rape the girl, died in 2006 in an apparent murder–suicide in the United States. He was found in the third-floor apartment of Lauren Cooper, a junior Kennesaw State University student and acquaintance whom he had apparently sexually assaulted and then murdered, by strangulation. He then took his own life by using a knife to slice open his veins at the elbows.” -1995 Okinawa rape incident - Wikipedia

An Independent Can Win in 2020

An independent could win the Presidency. Donald Trump was as close to being an independent as one is likely to get though.
The Democrat Party has evolved since the Clintons of 1992 to a moribund condition. An independent that could disentangle ecospheric issues from moral issues such that ecosphere reform is without immorality preconditions (how does homosexuality, recreational drugs or abortion actually have any relevance to global warming?) could get some votes from people somewhat disgusted with matters of immorality the Supreme Court decides eventually anyway.
An independent would probably need to be a billionaire or someone with tremendous resources able to buy advertising without party contributions and with the media likely against them. If the candidate isn’t actually very different politically from the party candidates whats the point though?
Probably an independent candidate would have a position equivalent to an independent primary party that merges to take over the mainstream party to run as the party candidate. President Trump worked something like that. So a candidate with numerous independent ideas could present them and try to get enough support to get delegates for the national convention and the nomination eventually.
Usually regular candidates try to present a formula for a platform appealing to enough voters to get a nomination instead of leading with new and independent ideas that attract enough voters that recognize the reason and utility of the ideas.
A candidate that has ideas about reforming capitalism and environmental economics, securing the borders, renewing the environment and eliminating poverty could draw voters from all parties. The trouble is that the people that run require tons of money just to start.
There is also the problem of brownie point qualifications. Candidates need to have a PhD in Environmental economics, be as svelte as a decathalete, rugged as Chuck Norris and have graduated from West Point with a Silver Star from Thermopylae, the Croix de Guerre with clusters and be a Mister Rogers Bible instructor who gives blood twice a week while serving food to the homeless at a leprosarium.
