ORWELLIAN GOVT OPPRESSION AND NEVER ENDING WARS



THE ORWELLIAN GOVT OPPRESSION AND THE NEVER ENDING WARS: AMERICAN SOCIETY IS ONLY FANTASY AND THE WALL IS TOO HIGH
Reproduced by The 4th Media News | December 18, 2012
“HEY YOU”: Orwellian Government Oppression and Never Ending Wars[1]
Hey you, don’t tell me there’s no hope at all
Together we stand, divided we fall.
Pink Floyd – Hey You

“A really efficient totalitarian state would be one in which the all-powerful executive of political bosses and their army of managers control a population of slaves who do not have to be coerced, because they love their servitude.” – Aldous Huxley, Brave New World

The world makes less sense every day. Little children are randomly slaughtered in their schoolrooms. Predator drones roam the skies over foreign countries exterminating bad guys, along with innocent women and children (collateral damage when it occurs in a foreign country).
Drugged up mentally ill kids with no hope and no future live lives of secluded quiet desperation until they snap. Ignorant, government educated, welfare dependent drones with no self respect or respect for others, assault, kill and rob within their government created urban jungles.
Sociopathic criminals who committed the largest financial crime in world history walk free and continue to occupy executive suites in luxury office towers in downtown NYC, collecting millions in bonuses as compensation for crushing the American middle class.
Academics, whose theories have been thoroughly disproven, continue to steer our economy into an iceberg while accelerating the money printing and debt issuance that will sink our ship of state.
Corrupt, bought off politicians pander to the lowest common denominator as their votes are only dependent upon who contributed the most to their election campaigns, which never end.
Delusional, materialistic, egocentric, math challenged consumers (formerly known as citizens) live for today, enslave themselves in debt, vote themselves more entitlements, and care not for future generations.
The alienation and isolation created by our sprawling, automobile dependent, technology obsessed, government controlled, debt financed society has spread like a cancerous tumor, slowly killing our country.
 Pink Floyd released The Wall 33 years ago. It was a concept rock opera album that explored the issues of abandonment, isolation, alienation, authoritarianism, the brutality of war, a tyrannical conformist educational system, and the walls individuals and society build to protect themselves from having to confront reality and deal with the consequences of their actions.
I attended the Roger Waters Wall Concert this past summer at Citizens Bank Park with my three sons. Three decades later, the message is more powerful than ever.
The government oppression and never ending wars waged by the American Empire around the world have created a society built upon fear and loathing. Roger Waters’ vision is colored by Orwell’s 1984 dystopian nightmare of lies, misinformation, propaganda and brutality.
The missing piece, which Waters didn’t see coming in 1979, was the ability of the oligarchs to use their control of the credit system to entrap the masses by convincing them to love their servitude and become so consumed with material possessions and the love of money that they would become nothing more than passive egotistical consumers.
Since 1979, Total Credit Market Debt in the United States has risen from $4.3 trillion to $55.3 trillion, a 1,286% increase in 33 years. Over this same time frame total wages and salaries have risen from $1.3 trillion to $6.9 trillion, a 531% increase. GDP has grown from $2.6 trillion to $15.8 trillion, a 608% increase.
Luckily for the oligarchs, the math challenged masses don’t understand that 375% of the increase in GDP is strictly due to Federal Reserve created inflation, as the U.S. dollar has lost 68% of its purchasing power since 1979. This GDP growth was driven by debt, with consumer expenditures rising from 61% of GDP in 1979 to 71% of GDP today.
In the one hundred years since the creation of the Federal Reserve the country’s population has tripled, while our public debt and unfunded liabilities have risen from $2 billion to over $200 trillion, a ten million percent increase.
The masses have been programmed and conditioned to love their debt servitude and yearn for more debt to fix an economic system that collapsed due to excessive debt.
The cadre of ruling elite are obliging by creating debt at hyperspeed levels. The corporate media, Wall Street shysters and low-life captured politicians assure the sheep-like masses that this is normal and beneficial to their interests, as the sheep are sheared and led to slaughter.

“There are some ideas so wrong that only a very intelligent person could believe in them.” – George Orwell


“And always, everywhere, there would be the yelling or quietly authoritative hypnotists; and in the train of the ruling suggestion givers, always everywhere, the tribes of buffoons and hucksters, the professional liars, the purveyors of entertaining irrelevances. Conditioned from the cradle, unceasingly distracted, mesmerized systematically, their uniformed victims would go on obediently marching and countermarching, go on, always and everywhere, killing and dying with the perfect docility of trained poodles.” Aldous Huxley

Aldous Huxley and Edward Bernays realized in the 1920s that the utilization of conditioning and propaganda techniques could be used to control and manipulate the masses.
Ivan Pavlov, the famous Russian physiologist, conducted the ground breaking work on conditional reflexes. Pavlov discovered that when a bell was rung in subsequent time with food being presented to a dog in consecutive sequences, the dog will initially salivate when the food is presented.
The dog will later come to associate the ringing of the bell with the presentation of the food and salivate upon the ringing of the bell.
To a critical thinking human being who questions authority, resists being told what they should think, and values their humanity, over what is crammed down their throat by government run schools and the corporate controlled media, the thought of being treated like a dog is revolting.
But to people like Edward Bernays, who believed manipulation of the masses by an invisible contingent of intellectually superior men, conditioning the minds of the masses through propaganda was a necessity in a democratic society to keep the herd under control.
Just a cursory examination of our society reveals a population of salivating consumers (dogs) who can be stimulated to buy the latest iPhone or techno-gadget with a simple Madison Avenue advertising campaign (bell).
Everyone has seen the videos of the masses lining up like cattle on Black Friday, stampeding through aisles, and fighting each other like their the entertainment at Michael Vick’s house on a Saturday night.
All the mega-corporate retailers and the corporate media have to do is ring a bell (SALE) and the dogs start salivating.
Product placement, Hollywood star endorsements and influential people using a product immediately convince the easily manipulated dogs to salivate and purchase the products.
The difference is that these dogs have credit cards issued by the Wall Street banks and funded by the Federal Reserve with dollars created out of thin air.
We are inundated with millions of TV, newspaper, radio, billboard, and internet advertisements designed to make us salivate (spend). Huxley’s dystopian vision of a society whose economic values, in which individual happiness is defined as the ability to satisfy needs, and achievement as a society is equated with economic growth and prosperity, has come to full fruition.
He never conceived of consumers having the ability to consume without even having the money to do so. The credit card became our form of Soma.
The so called progressives point to our ever increasing “advancements” in technology as proof that our society is progressing. Huxley knew otherwise, decades before we reached this disgusting point in history:
“Technological progress has merely provided us with more efficient means for going backwards.” -Aldous Huxley
In reality our “technological progress” has done nothing more than create a humorless, shallow, superficial world of alienation and egocentric desires.
Just as in Huxley’s Brave New World, science and technology have not been used to seek truth and advance our culture. They have been used by the State to sensor, control, and monitor the citizens. They use technology as a means to create electronic entertainment machines that generate both harmless leisure and the high levels of consumption and production that are the basis of societal stability and state designed happiness.
When those in control talk about progress, they mean greater control over our lives. When the consumption of material goods isn’t enough to fill the holes within our souls, our owners are quick to prescribe a pill to smooth over those feelings of unease and discontent.
In Huxley’s novel the population voluntarily consumes Soma to dispel any anxieties or negative emotion. The saying was,“One cubic centimeter cures ten gloomy sentiments.”
In America the government controlled drug industry has thousands of pills to treat every ailment or unhappy thought that might ail you. Just don’t try and treat yourself with an unapproved natural or banned substance. The threat of imprisonment always lurks in the shadows. They just want us to be interchangeable bricks in the wall.
And the Worms Ate Into His Brain
“The real hopeless victims of mental illness are to be found among those who appear to be most normal. Many of them are normal because they are so well adjusted to our mode of existence, because their human voice has been silenced so early in their lives that they do not even struggle or suffer or develop symptoms as the neurotic does. They are normal not in what may be called the absolute sense of the word; they are normal only in relation to a profoundly abnormal society. Their perfect adjustment to that abnormal society is a measure of their mental sickness. These millions of abnormally normal people, living without fuss in a society to which, if they were fully human beings, they ought not to be adjusted.” Aldous Huxley

 Hey you, out there in the cold
Getting lonely, getting old
Can you feel me?
Hey you, standing in the aisles
With itchy feet and fading smiles
Can you feel me?
Hey you, don’t help them to bury the light
Don’t give in without a fight.
Pink Floyd – Hey You

The tragic deaths of twenty children and six adults in Newtown, Connecticut this past week and the similar tragedies in Aurora, Columbine, Virginia Tech and Tucson are a reflection of the twisted society we’ve created.
The progressive control freak do-gooders that believe the government can solve all problems and improve our lives with another law or regulation, have as usual come to the wrong solution for the wrong problem. Stricter gun control laws would not have averted this this tragedy.
Connecticut has the 5th toughest gun restrictions in the country according to the Brady Center to Prevent Gun Violence. The guns were purchased legally by the mother of the killer. Mentally deranged people should not have access to guns, knives, automobiles, gasoline, or baseball bats.
The real issue is not what he used to kill these innocent people, it’s what caused him to snap. Those in power want to divert the attention from this crucial question.
In Huxley’s novel the characters do everything they can to avoid confronting the truth about their own lives. They try to alter reality by ingesting Soma, encouraged by the state as the ultimate form of willful self-delusion.
Soma clouds the realities of the present and replaces them with happy hallucinations, and is thus a tool for promoting social stability. America has taken Huxley’s dystopian vision to an extreme. There are millions of children in this country being drugged on a daily basis to keep them under control.
A majority of the mass murderers were taking psychotropic drugs, including the mentally deranged killer this week. These killings are a result of the state sponsored drugging of children, a culture that promotes narcissism, broken families and our technologically enhanced suburban sprawl isolation from human relationships, love and compassion for others.
We glorify technology even though it encourages the building of brick walls, creating a self-imposed isolation from society. The traditional family unit has been discarded, with 50% of marriages ending in divorce and 43% of all children born out of wedlock.
Millions of families are dysfunctional, with parents too busy with their careers and acquiring material possessions, to bother with raising their children in a loving nurturing way.
One in ten American adults choose to escape their man made cells with prescription anti-depressants. Almost one in four women in their 40s and 50s are popping pills to escape their depressing lives. Huxley envisioned a Soma Nation.
America is a Prozac Nation. The wealthy think medicating their kids, spoiling them with toys, gadgets and cars, and occupying their days with organized sports and activities passes for involved parenting. Poor urban children are lucky if they ever lay eyes on their father.
Ignorance, violence, and dependency are a given for most of these kids. And all of these children are matriculated into the government run schools whose sole purpose is to teach kids what to think, rather than how to think.
Our owners need to keep us “happy” and focused on feelings, material possessions, and an infinite number of distractions, so they can retain control and continue their pillaging of the national wealth.
Our leaders have attempted to design their own Brave New World, retaining control by making America’s citizens so contented and superficially fulfilled that they no longer care about their personal freedoms, liberties and civic responsibilities.
The consequences of increasing state power are a loss of dignity, morals, values, and emotions. We are losing our humanity.
The society created by Bernays and his minions who occupy the executive suites in NYC and slither through the halls of Congress has been built upon destroying all human truths, such as love, friendship, community, and personal connections.
Decades of media propaganda, public education mind control, and peddling of debt convinced the majority that happiness meant immediate gratification of our desires for food, sex, drugs, clothes, iGadgets, and all the other consumer crap made in corporate sponsored slave labor factories across Asia.
These delusional hallucinations of happiness are the prison walls we’ve built brick by brick.
“This concern with the basic condition of freedom — the absence of physical constraint — is unquestionably necessary, but is not all that is necessary. It is perfectly possible for a man to be out of prison and yet not free — to be under no physical constraint and yet to be a psychological captive, compelled to think, feel and act as the representatives of the national State, or of some private interest within the nation, want him to think, feel and act.” Aldous Huxley
It took the intellectuals and progressives that wield power across the land only moments to hijack the feelings of sorrow and pain sweeping the nation, to misdirect attention from the mental illnesses caused by the society they’ve created, towards the false storyline that gun violence is sweeping the land.
In reality, violent crime has been falling for over a decade as gun sales have soared. The homicide rate in this country is the lowest since 1964, with the vast majority of homicides occurring in the urban kill zones created by the five decade long progressive war on poverty. The truth is of no interest to those brandishing power.
After decades of conditioning, the masses are psychologically captive to the messages designed to make them salivate.
They will be compelled to think, feel and act as instructed by the Alphas.
There will be calls for more police, despite the fact that police rarely stop a crime. With all of their armaments, technology, high powered weaponry, and political clout, they can be counted on to arrive five minutes after the tragedy is over.
But they are brilliant in luring clueless Muslim teenagers into terrorist plots, picking the target, providing the fake bombs, and taking credit for foiling the plots they created.
More union police officers will increase our safety as much as more union teachers have made our kids smarter.
This tragedy will be used by the propagandists to impose further restrictions upon those who choose personal responsibility and self-reliance over dependency and trust in the efficiency and fairness of our benevolent government overlords.
As the father of three sons I can’t imagine the pain, sorrow and emptiness the parents of these beautiful children must be experiencing. The grief is overwhelming. I mourn for the children and adults slaughtered by a mentally deranged young man created by our truly perverted culture of alienation.I mourn for the children being raised in a society run by evil psychopathic liars that use the power of propaganda and the tools of debt to control and manipulate its citizens. I mourn for unborn generations that will be forced to confront the dreadful depraved chaos created by our culture of egocentric greed and narcissism.
The things we value in this culture – accumulating wealth, outward beauty, acquisition of material possessions, instant gratification, access to debt, government control, and curing our ills with drugs – are driving us insane.
Who is really abnormal in a profoundly abnormal society?
Believing that possessions, more laws or another medication will truly make us happy is insane. Popping a pill, buying a new iPhone, or passing another law will not cure the disease that permeates this nation.
We need to recapture the humanity, civic pride and self-responsibility that built this country.
Only an awakened populace can change our course.
Huxley feared that our desires would ruin us. Orwell was afraid that what we fear would ruin us.
The oligarchs have pushed the Huxley vision to its sustainable limit. The avarice and greed of these invisible power brokers has devoured the vast resources of the nation.
These psychopaths weren’t satisfied with siphoning off most of the wealth of the country.
They wanted it all and wrecked the global economy in their odious pursuit of mammon. We are now in the death throes of the most decadent, delusional, debt engendered era in the long history of mankind.
Those in power realize it is slipping away. Their “solutions” reflect an air of desperation. Their propaganda efforts have been redoubled.
As more middle class workers lose their jobs, more young people graduate from college with tens of thousands in student loan debt and a future of dramatically reduced expectations, and more people are driven beyond their breaking point, this materialistic shroud of happiness will be torn asunder.
Anger is building like a lava dome within a volcano. A critical thinking minority are questioning the motives of those in power. The unsustainability of our economic paradigm is certain.
The seeds of revolution are being sown. Our society is only fantasy. The wall is too high. It will be up to an irate tireless minority of freedom minded citizens to tear down the wall. The alternative is to allow the worms to eat into our brains. Each of us must answer a simple question. Are you just another brick in the wall?
But it was only fantasy.
The wall was too high,
As you can see.
No matter how he tried,
He could not break free.
And the worms ate into his brain.
Pink Floyd – Hey You   
The oligarchs will not give up without a fight.
Their realization that the Brave New World method of controlling the masses has run its course has convinced them to shift their methods towards Orwell’s 1984 tactics. In part two of this series – Mother Should I Trust the Government? [2] -  I’ll address how the use of fear, war, pain, and surveillance are becoming the new controlling method of the oligarchs.

PERU EN LA HAYA: LA AUTO-MUTILADA TESIS PERUANA




LA HAYA:  AUTOMUTILADA TESIS PERUANA?
por Guillermo Olivera Díaz
Voltairenet.org  Socios | 6 de diciembre de 2012
http://www.voltairenet.org/article176870.html

Todo parece indicar que la demanda ante La Haya de Perú contra Chile ha sido presentada auto-mutilada, escondiendo una delimitación marítima soterrada, pero que por ahí bullía coherente e históricamente documentada.

Nuestros expertos (todo el equipo contratado para defender al Perú), se supone ampliamente versados en todos los antecedentes del diferendo marítimo, escondieron la existencia de un sinfín de documentos históricos que Chile presentó en su contra-memoria, los analizó y evaluó, y que hoy han oralizado uno por uno.

En consecuencia, el presidente Humala debe exigir a aquellos operadores (“nuestros expertos”)  que exhiban todos y cada uno de tales documentos que el pueblo peruano los desconocía. ¡Que la exhibición opere ipso facto, antes de la expedición del fallo!

Resultaba ingenuo mutilarlos, esconderlos y hasta falsearlos, si Chile los tenía que acompañar, lo cual ha hecho con oportunidad, para el asombro de los que no somos especialistas en esta intrincada materia limítrofe de mares, lecho y subsuelo.

¡Mi presagio, reñido con mi deseo, es que La Haya dará la razón a Chile!

Guillermo Olivera Díaz.

--------------- 
COMENTARIO DE HUGO ADAN  (Dic 7, 2013)
1.  Si se prueba que el Ministerio de Relaciones Exteriores de Perú ,MRE, el actual y el del Gbno de García, mutilaron, escondieron y falsearon documentos históricos, eso sería grave delito de función contra la nación peruana. Hay memoria  fresca sobre manipulación de conflictos fronterizos artificialmente creados por la prensa nacional-  para tender cortina de humo sobre el mal manejo internos en la relación Estado-Nacion. Se habló por ejemplo de eminente conflicto bélico de frontera para suspender garantías constitucionales, o para desviar la atención pública sobre delitos de Estado, o para atropellar demandas de aumento de salarios u otros derechos laborales y ambientales, y hasta para saquear las arcas del Estado a favor del aumentos al  presupuesto militar pro-guerra. Si todo eso ocurrió es porque el MRA fue pieza clave de todos estos graves delitos que costaron mucho dinero a la nación peruana. Quien estudie el caso se dará cuenta que no es la 1ra vez que Chile fue usado para esos nefastos propósitos. Eso debe acabar y hoy, con el fallo de la Haya, que al parecer no nos va a beneficiar porque el actual MRE incurrió en serios de delitos de función, ese capítulo de falsa historia está a punto de  ser clausurado. Y en buena hora. La pregunta es cómo hacer para que los efectos de la sanción de la Haya no dañen  nuestra relación económico-politica con el hermano pueblo de chile.

2. Los Colegios de Abogados de Perú, sus constitucionalistas, y las Cortes Regionales deben tomar cartas en el asunto y exigir estudios comparativos de ambos documentos, el que Peru y Chile presentaron a la Haya. Estos estudios comparativos deben inmediatamente ser publicados por la prensa nacional y si en realidad se mutiló, escondió y falseó la verdad se debe establecer la sanción correspondiente a ello. El Gobierno de Ollanta Humala debe inmediatamente separar de sus funciones a altos funcionarios de su Gbno envueltos en este delito. De lo contrario será cómplice del mismo. Sabemos que el Gbno de Chile ha ordenado ya la publicación masiva del documento que presento a la Haya y lo mismo debe hacer Peru. Esa deberá ser la base para información y debate sano al respecto. De lo contrario tendremos son rumores y especulaciones de bajísima calidad preñados de chovinismos patrioteros y xenofobia anti-chilena.

3. Nuestro objetivo debe ser que se establezca una relación de hermandad con el pueblo de Chile y que las relaciones económicas y políticas con ese país jamás se alteren y que sean en cambio mejores en el futuro inmediato. El pueblo peruano jamás debe permitir que burócratas de Estado que cometieron serios errores de función mellen esas relaciones. La prensa peruana esta frente a un imperativo de conciencia: decir la verdad, y pedir sanción a los felones caiga quien caiga. Los gobiernos de ambos países están frente al imperativo jurídico y ético de facilitar el dialogo informado y sano al respecto y para ellos es importante que ambos dos publiquen el dia siguiente que la La Haya de su fallo, la propuesta que ambos presentaron a esta entidad.  Asi evitaremos comentarios y diálogos, tergiversados y xenofóbicos entre pueblos hermanos.
