RT News Notes That PM Trudeau is President Trump's Lackey

Finally an independent opinion has arisen noting that Canada is a lackey of the U.S.A. Russia's RT news wrote that  Canada is an American lackey. America lacks colonies yet it may have a lackey equivalent of a Facebook follower. So far as I know this is the first media use of the term lackey since the end of the Cold War so history is being made.

Canada arrested someone named  Meng Wanzhou. China is arresting Canadians as hostages to secure the release of Meng who I believe is being extradited to face charges in the US. Supposedly she coordinated sanctions violations and sold product to Iran that was American.

Huawei is larger than Apple and second only to Samsung in making smartphones. Their 5G products may be directly used for Red Army espionage, or some other intelligence agency.

Canada seemed to want to be independent during the recent NAFTA renegotiation and PM Trudeau had a rather piffy attitude now and then. Yet as an American lackey he did not complain when American motor plants were closed recently because prospects for building in China down the road may be better than Canada that pollutes rivers with mining tailings piles' wastewater.

Probably RT has shamed Canada enough now to make them reconcile with Russia over Ukraine and seek better relations with China as their lackey, leaving lackeyhood with the U.S.A. It is important to anticipate or at least keep track of the primary nations of interest. Saudi Arabia didn't accuse Canada of being anyone's lackey. Maybe that isn't an Arabian concept.

Russion Collusioner Butina Cops Plea for Influencing NRA to be Conservative

Evidently the National Rifle Association was the unwitting dupe of a femme fatale Russian spy and community conspiracy organizing agent trying to persuade the National Rifle Association- quite unfairly- to vote for Donald Trump instead of Hillary Clinton as they  normally would have. Democrats are all over gun ownership rights and border security.

President Trump's former fixer-lawyer plead guilty to throwing the election to Donald by paying two former alleged sex partners of the President as well as the National Enquirer to not publicize the salacious alleged sex. Normally Donald Trump wouldn't care if women and the national scandal sheets told the planet about his sexual adventures. House Speaker to be Nancy Pelosi recently questioned Donald Trump's manhood publicly suggesting that he wanted a big wall to compensate for his genetic endowments. Plainly the President prefers the former sort of publicity rather than the latter

Speaker Pelosi might want the world to believe California is wide-spread and waiting for illegal immigrants. She might agree that those seeking asylum in Caravans should be given $50,000 apiece as they demand to return to Central America or else they will continue to agitate for asylum and discover ways to slip through holes in security to California.

The collusion of Russia to get President Trump elected apparently went so far as to promise to base Russian nuclear-capable bombers in Venezuela to help out the President if he nears impeachment. The American public is so gullible to foreign election interference that they cannot be trusted and in the future Democrats may need to rule by decree or at least special electors to vote as Demo leaders know Americans would vote if they had any sense.

Editing Away Breast Cancer With CRISPR

Scientists have improved the way CRISPR works to an extent that permits increased accuracy in understanding a priori the effects will be on editing genes. So far the effets could be rather random with too much uncertainty.

The ability to edit out breast cancer will be a strong political motivation for liberal deregulation of genetic modification. The trouble with genetic engineering is that the changes are passed on to all of humanity through interbreeding. Hence mistakes can cancel out the entire human race in theory.

https://phys.org/news/2018-12-scientists-crispr-code-precise-human.html

Human beings sometimes makes errors and have less than perfect judgment. Maybe not in foreign relation or federal budget balancing, education or health care, yet I suspect that a possibility of creating irreversible errors in genetic editing is a real if vague possibility.

Turkey Readies to Chump Trump

Turkey is a N.A.T.O. member state that intends to war against solid U.S.Kurdish allies in Northern Syria. Kurds have been serious warriors fighting in battles that usually ditto U.S.  regional Middle East interests. For the Trump administration to let Turkey go ahead and attack and kill U.S. allies would be a substantial error and breach of trust in the United States once again.

Sect. of State Pompeo is blustering about Russians and Iranians as well as Venezuelans to the best of his ability while the Senate goaded on by the broadcast media over the killing by Saudi's of a liberal revolutionary Washington Post journalist in the Saudi Embassy in Turkey, plans to vote on some kind of alienation of U.S. Saudi alliance or support in the war against Shi-ite revolutionaries in Yemen (if  have that right).

https://www.aol.com/article/news/2018/12/12/mika-brzezinski-apologizes-for-asking-if-mike-pompeo-is-a-wannabe-dictators-butt-boy/23616438/

So briefly considered; the U.S. Government wants to
1) let the only Muslim member of N.A.T.O. kill our best non-Israeli friends in the Middle East
2) Increase adverse relations with Iran
3) Develop adverse relations with Saudi Arabia
4) Oppose in effect Shi-ite support for Syria's Alawite Government and Christians
5) Develop more than a few dozen or hundred Sunni rebels to fight against Damascus and Assad
6) Sell ten thousand clown cars to the Saudi Government
7) Complain about two Russian bombers landing in Venezuela after the U.S. flew aircraft over Ukraine recently to warn Russians about possible military support for the Ukraine anti-Russian forces
8) Oppose Iranian missile development that if sanctioned enough could stimulate Russian-Iran joint missile development

I think there are a few more issues yet that's enough for now. The approach of just negativism works about as well as polyannish unrealism. I guess President Reagan's constructive engagement policy works better and should at least be tried with Central America.

Mexico pledged to provide 30 billion dollars in financial aid to Central America. Meanwhile the caravans of aliens seeking to illegally invade the U.S.A. from Mexico are demanding $50,000 each from the Trump administration or they will continue to seek to force their way in. Plainly those making financial demands have little or no regard for U.S. security and know the broadcast media and left-o-crats are on their side.

Turkey should try to share real estate with Kurds. Kurds not having a safe homeland is the problem. Realpolitick would develop a lasting Kurdish state Amidst Syria, Turkey and Iraq with some land from each. Maybe Turkey could create a Kurdish state at least equal to the Iraqi state and permit free travel around so it works like a nation.

Not much to say about it. I guess IQ points are generally lacking in government.

Replying to; Could Brits Have Won the War Without U.S. Help?

The British Empire continued many wars without the United States being involved. Probably they would have lost the First and Second world wars without U.S. intervention.

Crown Prince Rupprecht finally did accomplish a German breakout in the First world war. The Germans advanced as far as 250 miles into France before the Germans just ran out of men. American reinforcements supplied new blood to Brits and the war against Germany and Turkey, hence the war concluded with an armistice that Patton knew to be a mistake. Some German veterans including Hitler felt they were cheated and could have won without the pacific political settlement. Some were eager for a rematch. Patton wanted to fight until unconditional surrender. The deposed German aristocrats also sought a new way to take social control so they reinforced Hitler and the rise of Corporatism. The supply side deficit financed reichonomics expanded rapidly and needed new land to repay or erase debt. Maybe erasing lenders was part of the plan too.

It is interesting that Hitler and some reichonomic theorists continued the policy of aristocrats of taking Russian land such as much of the Ukraine through military victory and leverage of communist revolutionaries such as V.I. Lenin who sought at least neutrality from the German aristocrats. Hitler later launched operation Barbarossa to claim the remainder of Russia.

Hitler had believed that Jews in German were political enemies. Jews in the beginning of the 20th century were seeking some place in Europe perhaps for a homeland to call their own. The restive and historically exploited populace without a homeland were landless Zionists and internationalists. Being intelligent some became political leaders and were blamed by Hitler for the crimes of lending money I would think, as well as supporting rebellion against the German aristocracy leading to the German revolution just before the end of the First world war.

 The brilliant Soviet communist revolutionary writer Leon Bronstein also known as Trotsky  was Jewish. Jews were easily blamed by Nazi socialists for creating the Soviet Union as well as ending German aristocracy. Jewish Zionist goals were not monolithic. As nationally homeless people too often victimized by pograms some perhaps were susceptable to siren calls of socialist utopias.

When the 3rd Reich purged all the counter-German nationalists in Europe they could during the 2nd world war, that led the U.S. and other allied governments to support the Zionist desire to restore the Jewish national state of Israel helping to end the problem of unsettled people being restive and simultaneously scapegoat victims.

It is good to settle political differences without violence or force. Yet in the first part of the 20th century humans hardly knew any other way in macro-politics.

Kaepernick May Be Shunned for Low Passer Completion Rate

Much has been said about why Colin Kaepernick isn't playing in the NFL. He is supposed to be a victim of racism, yet in fact he is a bootleg quarterback with a low passing completion percentage.  Cam Newton, Chad Henne, Blake Bortles and Matt Cassel are the few recently employed NFL quarterbacks with a lower rating.

https://www.pro-football-reference.com/leaders/pass_cmp_perc_career.htm

On the list at the website above Colin Kaepernick has a 59.5 completion percent and that is good enough to put him in 47th place among all-time QBs. Peyton Manning has a 65% rating and Drew Brees the highest at 67%.

If one looks at modern quarterbacks one finds that all of the starters have 60% or better and just one or two marginal QBs carry a 59% and still play. Since Kaepernick isn't a drop back passer and just as a running threat was able to get his completion rate as high as 59.5% its easy to understand why NFL teams don't want to risk  playing a quarterback who nearly guarantees empty seats for boycotts. Colin Kaepernck uses games as political platforms and understandably people are concerned more with making a profit. At age 31 running quarterbacks tend to slow down and develop fumblelitas in the hands from all the hits. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colin_Kaepernick

Quarterback passer rating have been going up since the 1950s when the best quarterbacks were lucky to rate higher than 50% on completions. Maybe the artificial turf helps, maybe its the receivers with sticky fingers. The 2018 completion stats are rather amazing; Drew Brees leads at 75%!  The top 19 are all above 65%!

NFL tickets at the most cheap run from $10 (If I went to an NFL game I would get one of those) to $200-$300. Apparently team owners actually care if they sell out stadiums for revenue's sake.
