A Simple Twist of Fate

 Fate, 1920 Alphonse Maria Mucha

The wise have eyes in their heads, 
while the fool walks in the darkness; 
but I came to realize 
that the same fate overtakes them both.

    Egypt’s famous Malawi National Museum has been ransacked, looted and smashed up by vandals in another example of the recent unrest in the country.

    Gunmen shot dead 11 people, mostly Christians, near a town in central Syria on Saturday, state media and activists said, an attack described by a local resident as aimed at members of the religious minority.

    The resident, citing witnesses, told The Associated Press that the gunmen randomly opened fire on roadside restaurants in a drive-by shooting outside Ein al-Ajouz as Christians were celebrating a feast day. He spoke on condition of anonymity for fear of reprisals.

    The state-run SANA news agency described the attack as a "massacre" and said women and children were among the dead.

    Despite my love for vegetables, there is no way I'll ever be willing to give up meat. Pork (even though I'm Jewish) is amazing slowly cooked and shredded, and please don't forget bacon. Chicken is good too, but I guess it's poultry. And then there's beef. Medium rare juicy burgers with melted cheese, chipotle mayonnaise and perfectly ripe avocados. Beef fajitas with onions and peppers. Medium rare steak with sauteed mushrooms and onions. I even love meatloaf!

  13. “Anarchists did not try to carry out genocide against the Armenians in Turkey; they did not deliberately starve millions of Ukrainians; they did not create a system of death camps to kill Jews, gypsies, and Slavs in Europe; they did not fire-bomb scores of large German and Japanese cities and drop nuclear bombs on two of them; they did not carry out a Great Leap Forward that killed scores of millions of Chinese; they did not attempt to kill everybody with any appreciable education in Cambodia; they did not launch one aggressive war after another; they did not implement trade sanctions that killed perhaps 500,000 Iraqi children. In debates between anarchists and statists, the burden of proof clearly should rest on those who place their trust in the state. Anarchy’s mayhem is wholly conjectural; the state’s mayhem is undeniably, factually horrendous.” Robert Higgs

  16. WASHINGTON - A resurgence of violence and a renewed threat from al-Qaida have recently revived flagging U.S. interest in Iraq, officials said Friday as Baghdad asked for new help to fight extremists less than two years after it forced American troops to withdraw.

    Faced with security crises across the Mideast, North Africa and Asia, the White House largely has turned its attention away from Iraq since U.S. forces left in 2011. But the country has been hit with deadly bombings at a rate reminiscent of Iraq's darkest days, stoking new fears of a civil war. More than 1,000 Iraqis were killed in terror-related attacks in July, the deadliest month since 2008.

    The violence has spurred Baghdad to seek new U.S. aid to curb the threat, said Iraqi Foreign Minister Foreign Minister Hoshyar Zebari. He said a U.S. assistance package could include a limited number of advisers, intelligence analysis and surveillance assets - including lethal drones.

  17. “I don’t know when the word fashion came into being, but it was an evil day.”

    These words came from an American fashion designer working at the top of her game. Elizabeth Hawes wrote the line in her bestselling book Fashion Is Spinach published in 1938. The full 337 pages are an ongoing smack-down of fashion, fashion designers and, mostly, the fashion industry Elisabeth Hawes blamed for creating a planet of fashion victims. “Fashion is a parasite on style”, “Fashion is that horrid little man with an evil eye, that tells you last winter’s coat may be in perfect condition, but you can’t wear it because it has a belt”, “Fashion gets up those perfectly ghastly ideas, such as accessories should match…” And so on and so on until briskly closing the book with six finite capital letters in bold print: I SAY TO HELL WITH IT.

  20. Jeremiah 23:23-29


    23:23 Am I a God near by, says the LORD, and not a God far off?

    23:24 Who can hide in secret places so that I cannot see them? says the LORD. Do I not fill heaven and earth? says the LORD.

    23:25 I have heard what the prophets have said who prophesy lies in my name, saying, "I have dreamed, I have dreamed!"

    23:26 How long? Will the hearts of the prophets ever turn back--those who prophesy lies, and who prophesy the deceit of their own heart?

    23:27 They plan to make my people forget my name by their dreams that they tell one another, just as their ancestors forgot my name for Baal.

    23:28 Let the prophet who has a dream tell the dream, but let the one who has my word speak my word faithfully. What has straw in common with wheat? says the LORD.

    23:29 Is not my word like fire, says the LORD, and like a hammer that breaks a rock in pieces?

    Some 38 supporters of the Muslim Brotherhood died on Sunday in a riot at an Egyptian prison, security sources said.

    The Interior Ministry did not immediately confirm the exact death toll, but said in a statement that a number of detainees had died after trying to escape from a prison.

    US Senator John McCain slammed President Obama Sunday for not taking a firmer stance against Egypt’s military leadership, saying the US has lost credibility in the Arab world. He wanted Washington to cut off military aid over the military coup and “exercise more muscle” in response to continued clashes.

    In the case of geography, Harvard Law School graduate Barack Obama recently lectured, “If we don’t deepen our ports all along the Gulf — places like Charleston, South Carolina; or Savannah, Georgia; or Jacksonville, Florida . . . ” The problem is that all the examples he cited are cities on the East Coast, not the Gulf of Mexico. If Obama does not know where these ports are, how can he deepen them?

    Obama’s geographical confusion has become habitual. He once claimed that he had been to all “57 states.” He also assumed that Kentucky was closer to Arkansas than it was to his adjacent home state of Illinois.

    In reference to the Falkland Islands, President Obama called them the Maldives — islands southwest of India — apparently in a botched effort to use the Argentine-preferred “Malvinas.” The two island groups may sound somewhat alike, but they are continents apart. Again, without basic geographical knowledge, the president’s commentary on the Falklands is rendered superficial.

    When in the state of Hawaii, Obama announced that he was in “Asia.” He lamented that the U.S. Army’s Arabic-language translators assigned to Iraq could better be used in Afghanistan, failing to recognize that Arabic isn’t the language of Afghanistan. And he also apparently thought Austrians speak a language other than German.

    It’s hard to get our minds around the dimensions of the slaughter underway in the Middle East and Africa, and harder still to see that the battlefields of Egypt, Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, Somalia, Nigeria and Mali are pieces in a global war in which we are targeted. For the most part, the deep thinkers zero in on the single battlefields. What if anything should we do about the big fight in Egypt? Should we assist the Syrian opposition? What to do in Lebanon or Jordan? Should we respond positively to the Iraqi government’s request for security assistance? Is anyone thinking hard about Tunisia, likely to be the scene of the next explosions?

    Geopolitical amnesia

    The “Big Cairo Fire” destroyed 30 banks and major companies, 13 hotels, 310 stores, 92 bars, 40 movie theaters, eight automobile showrooms. Not last week but 61 years ago. And the arsonist was the same -- the Muslim Brotherhood.

    http://www.upi.com/Top_News/Analysis/de-Borchgrave/2013/08/19/Commentary-Geopolitical-amnesia/UPI-79351376885700/

    More surprising is that the Muslim Brotherhood's Big Cairo fire circa 1952, didn't rate a mention in all the background stories about the current Cairo fires -- done by the same organization that is now cast as the misunderstood innocents who won an election fair and square only to be deprived of the spoils by a supreme commander, Gen. Abdel Fattah al-Sisi.

    Sisi was born in 1954, two years after Black Saturday in Cairo. But he knows that a Muslim Brotherhood government would be neither democratic nor enlightened. He has told visitors the Brotherhood would set Egypt back to the dark ages. The business community agrees.

    Sisi also knows it was the Muslim Brotherhood upheaval in January 1952 that triggered seven months later the Free Officers military coup July 23 led by Gamal Abdel Nasser who abolished a totally corrupt monarchy and dispatched King Farouk on his yacht to exile on the French Riviera. And when Nasser died of heart disease Sept. 13, 1970, his deputy Anwar Sadat became president until assassins (Brotherhooders) gunned him down Oct. 6, 1981.

    Sadat's successor, President Hosni Mubarak, was arrested in 2011, after almost 30 years in power. The Muslim Brotherhood was part of the group of Islamist extremists that advocated a trial -- and the death sentence. Mubarak may soon be free.

    Ashes of Richie Havens scattered at Woodstock site.

    a high school friend was the video man.

    "Today I had the honor to videotape a tribute to richie havens at betel woods in bethel ny. My cousin organized an incredibly moving tribute full of music peace and love culminated by the spreading of his ashes by plane over the field of Woodstock. This picture is of John Sebastian and John Hammond playing a short set. What a beautiful day in honor of a beautiful person.."

  154. Bales' defense team said Monday it will offer no evidence that the soldier was previously prescribed the anti-malaria drug mefloquine, known by its brand name Lariam. Last month, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration issued a new warning that the drug can cause long-term neurological damage and serious psychiatric side effects.

    "Our general theme is that Sgt. Bales snapped," said John Henry Browne, one of his civilian attorneys. "That's kind of our mantra, and we say that because of all the things we know: the number of deployments, the head injuries, the PTSD, the drugs, the alcohol."

    Bales, on his fourth combat deployment, had been drinking and watching a movie with other soldiers at his remote post at Camp Belambay in Kandahar Province when he slipped away before dawn on March 11, 2012. Bales said he had also been taking steroids and snorting Valium.

    In a video of Hosni Mubarak when he was still Egypt’s president, the strategies of which he accuses the Muslim Brotherhood have come to pass. What follows are Mubarak’s words from a conference in Egypt (date unknown; author’s translation):

    So they [Brotherhood and affiliates] took advantage of the economic situation by handing out money, to one man 100 Egyptian pounds, or about $30 dollars, [saying,] "Here take this bag of glycerin and throw it here," or do this or that--to create a state of instability in Egypt. And these groups--don't ever believe that they want democracy or anything like that. They are exploiting democracy in order to eliminate democracy. And if they ever do govern, it will be an ugly dictatorship. …. Once a foreigner [likely a Westerner] told me, "Well, if that's the case, why don't you let them form parties?" I told him, "they'd attack each other." He said, "So let them attack each other." I came to understand that by "attack each other" he thought I meant through dialogue. For years we've been trying to dialogue with them, and still are. If the dialogue is limited to words, fine. But when the dialogue goes from words to bullets and bombs… [Mubarak shakes his head, and then gives anecdotes of Egyptian police and security being killed by Brotherhood and affiliates, including how 104 policemen were killed in 1981, and how one officer was shot by them trying to save a boy's life.] The point is, we don't like bloodshed, neither our soldiers nor our officers. But when I see that you're firing at me, trying to kill me--well, I have to defend myself! Then the international news agencies go to these [Islamist] groups for information, and they tell them, "they're killing us, they're killing us!" Well, don't you [news agencies] see them killing the police?! I swear to you, not one of the police wants to kill them--not one of us. Then they say, "So Mr. President, you gave orders to the police to open fire indiscriminately?"--I cannot give such an order, at all. It contradicts the law. I could at one point be judged [for it].

    Democracy, Schmemocracy. It’s irrelevant to the people who manage the country, a joke to the people who own it. A local example, of course, is New York’s City Council, led by Christine Quinn, abolishing mayoral term limits after they were set by a voter referendum—the most unambiguous expression of the citizens’ wishes in a democracy (unless the ballot question is constructed by Californian Jesuits). What I’m not certain about is whether I support, believe in, advocate, adhere to, “democracy,” if the outcome is or might be something very evil.
