The Trap of Clausewitz – Why Imperialism Fails Even Without Climate Collapse

31-12-2014 13:33

And suddenly it is gone – once again the ocean swallowed a passenger plane, presumably with a little help from above. It is unknown just like the last time whether there was human intervention on board, which could have steered the flying mass grave away from the likely places to look before the burial, or whether it was crashed by ground control. Yet it appears a notable coincidence or causality-induced appearance thereof that it does again happen at a moment when the calculations of war are ushering toward a dead end. In the first instance, it was the Chinese head-in-the-sand approach to the independence of Crimea which encountered a rude awakening. Then the Netherlands found themselves punished for their complicity with the European fascists in the independence issue. And now Indonesia gets its extra oath unwrapped and fingered by an apparent coincidence. It is as if the “Bermuda triangle” of the past century was reappearing in the cloth of a “Gaia triangle” that can pop up just everywhere and rip a hole into the illusion of normalcy. And there could be meaning in the increased lapses: Like the shepherd that raises its voice in the moment the fire circle is gliding into a shouting match, the holes in the climate-justice-incompatible normalcy do occur like warning shots directed at preventing an irritated Unitednations structure from decline into overt fascism. The root cause of this risk is a system construction that favours power brokers more than fundamental reflection of purpose, and once the flaw becomes “normalcy” the normalcy of the flaw occasionally transforms into a flaw of normalcy, such as in the cases of the lost aircraft passengers. Did they not know that they were using a dead-end technology?

UG#700 - Is There No Other Way the World May Live? (Audiocollage of Dissidents)

31-12-2014 12:32

To mark our 700th show, a 2 hour audiocollage of new material which questions 'official' reality. Beginning with fairly broadly understood deceptions such as the War On Terror, Democracy and Economics we look at their philosophical underpinning - the notion that humans live in a dead, machine like, essentially meaningless universe which spontaneously arose out of nothing. What if life and communication are more widely spread than we believe, if human consciousness is just one part of Gaia, a universal consciousness which transcends human attempts to pin it down, a life force more accessible to our hearts than our heads?

UG#699 - A Country with A Military or A Military with A Country?

31-12-2014 12:29

This show contrasts the perspectives of two whistleblowers on the inside the US War Machine. One, Scott Bennett, from whom we heard last time, blew the whistle in 2014 and offers fresh first hand testimony from the machine designed to serve up an unremitting diet of war and fear, and moving USA rapidly towards a full-on totalitarian police state. The other, Sibel Edmonds, who blew the whistle on false flag terror in the immediate wake of 9-11, shares her acute awareness of the operations of the deep state and explains why she has just published a fictionized account of her discoveries as a whistleblower.

UKIP RACIST TROLLS - A HUMANE APPROACH @exposing_ukip @slatfascists @edlnews

31-12-2014 03:03

Since the marvelled conception of the world wide web at Oxford Uni by Timothy Berners-Lee, artificial intelligence has sought to emulate the real world intelligence through the creation of the first chatrooms onwards, where real life racist cowards who wouldn't say boo to the proverbial goose when confronted with a six-foot-six non-white male, can rant and rave all morning, day and night long in a fixated fervour of racism, homophobia and sexism until his heart's content. Finally, the tap room bigot propping up the bar of his BNP boozer could open his arms and say "hello world!" while cheaply lambasting Muslims, black people, asylum seekers, lesbian and gay people, migrant workers and immigrants.

Trip to the edge of the world

29-12-2014 20:53

Life seems so much of a rat race at times with stress from pressures of work, stress from unemployment, stress from relationship problems, stress from homelessness, extreme stress from constant wars which are essentially driven by Western greed for control of resources for endless consumption at home. It’s enjoyable to look at what a smaller, gentler world looks like.

UKIP's WHITE SUPREMACISM - @exposing_ukip @hopenothate @edlnews @leejasper

27-12-2014 16:57

UKIP's most popular and prolific tweeter David Jones, who is regularly retweeted by all the UKIP hierarchy including their two MPS and their MEPs, has twelve and a half thousand followers which makes him the most popular member of UKIP on social media. His twitter account is peppered with calls for Islam to be banned and tweets calling for Muslims to be expelled from Britain, but Muslims are not Mr Jones's only pet (race) hate.

He also loathes black people with a vengeance also, and wishes Britain was wholly white (read on).

Christmas Message 2014/No Place for refugees in Fortress Europe/Reflections on C

26-12-2014 04:42

It's a strange thing, that Christmas is to be celebrated more luxuoriously
every year, wile the true meaning of Christmas is, that there was no place for
a poor Child in the Inn, like nowadays boat refugees are not welcome in
Fortress Europe. Only when all refugees are welcome in Europe, there will
be a true Christmas.

Rebellions In North America

19-12-2014 18:53

Around the world, the class struggle, the struggle against state is a struggle against the policial state and his terror: the killing of Rémy Fraisse in France, the attack and torture against Nikos Romanos in Greece, and the recent/preventive actions against anarchists in Catalonia, and the attack on Westfield demonstrators in London. Until today's accounting, there are incidents of riots and social protests in at least 21 countries since the beginning of November.
