Sent from heaven above,
Give ol' Bushie a shove,
With my l'il pink tanky o' Love!
Cardboard cruiser with a kewl skull mask
For my luv mission it's up to the task
Gotta chicky-babe gunner with a chrome helmet on
When she starts pedalin' this beast is gone!
Got a handmade, tie-dyed hippie peace flag
The fuel it costs a "nickle" a bag,
The main barrel 's made of shippin' tubes
Blastin' 88mm shots of good vibes at uptight dudes
Got machine guns made of empty bog rolls
With happy paper flowers sticking out of the holes
Trucking down the road in my peaceful pink tank
Gonna scare the hate out of that Bushitler yank
Scare him all the way back to the US of A
And we will then have, forevermore, happy daze!
My li'l pink tanky brings mental pain
To them right wing fascist nazi brains!
You'll see my pink tanky again and again
Unless it gets caught in the pouring rain...

Thankfully, recent polls show that such morons are only a small part of the population of GB. So, the next time GB gets itself in a mess by electing another Chamberlain, we'll most likely be there to bail you out.

Chamberlain fell under the influence of Nazi dupes and propagandists like the America First Committee and its leader, American "hero" Charles Lindbergh, who was decorated with a medal by the Fuhrer himself.
American industrialists, in particular Henry ford, provided Adolph Hitler with both the ideological ammunition (i.e. the Ford tract: The International Jew: The World's Problem) via Ford's protracted hate campaign against Jews, as well as financial support.
As many know, the Bush family were instrumental in funnelling corporate support for Nazism. W's grandfather, Prescott, ran Union Banking, the front for management of Nazi affiliated German companies and propaganda disseminated by the likes of Lindbergh.
Recently, uncovered evidence proves decisively Ford Werke, the German subsidiary of Ford's Dearborn factory continued to profit from Hitler's killing machine, long after the U.S joined the war (as did other companies, like GM, making recent TV ads showing how their dependable vehicles helped defeat tyranny particularly sick-making).
For the whole disgusting story see: The American Axis: Henry Ford, Charles Lindbergh, and the Rise of the Third Reich by holocaust researcher Max Wallace.
It's probably too late for brain transplant victims like Will Coffman, but for today's "Good Germans," like those who remained silent while their country's leaders defiled the world half a century ago, there is a chance to turn back the tide of fascism epitomzed by that strutting little demagogue, who today has been offered legitimacy at Buckingham Palace and Whitehall, just as Chamberlain and America's heroes once did for Hitler.

Nazi Influence in America
19.11.2003 22:37
Hitler's Ghost
Nazi Influence in America
By JOHN STANTON
Here it is 2003, and the ghost of the notorious Nazi Adolph Hitler haunts America.
He's in the White House in Washington, DC and the governor's mansion in Sacramento,
California.
He roams the halls of the George C. Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville,
Alabama. His Nazi minions Arthur Rudolph and Werner Von Braun provided the
know-how to put American astronauts on the moon and nuclear warheads into space.
Rudolph, according to reporter Linda Hunt, was guilty of war crimes in WWII. "In
1969, Americans cheered as our astronauts took their first steps onto the moon. The
giant rocket that blasted them into space was Rudolph's crowning achievement as
NASA's project director for Saturn V. Fifteen years later, Rudolph relinquished his U.S.
citizenship and left the country rather than face Justice Department charges that he had
committed war crimes while working in an underground factory that had used Dora
Concentration Camp prisoners as slave labor."
American's should find it a bit unsettling that their presence on the moon and the
space-based military dominance they enjoy was built, in good measure, on the backs of
6,000 human beings who would ultimately be executed by the Nazi SS in the Spring of
1945.
According to Hunt, exactly 40 years after the liberation of Dora, in April 1985, the
Alabama Space and Rocket Museum paid tribute to 40 Germans who stood surrounded by
the press, in front of old V-2s and the Saturn V Rocket they helped build for the United
States. There is no monument to the Dora Concentration Camp. Why?
Americans do not wish to be reminded of what WWII French Resistance leader, and
Dora prisoner, Jean Michel said about the day that U.S. astronauts first walked on the
moon, "I could not watch the Apollo mission without remembering that that triumphant
walk was made possible by our initiation to inconceivable horror."
Hitler's influence is everywhere in America.
Nazi Know-How and the CIA
Hitler's ghost occupies the hallowed ground of the US Central Intelligence Agency.
General Reinhard Gehlen was Hitler's top Soviet spy during WWII and was recruited by
Allen Dulles, the first director of the CIA. According to Martin Lee, writing in the San
Francisco Bay Guardian, Gehlen returned to West Germany in the summer of 1946 with
a mandate to rebuild his espionage organization and resume spying on the East at the
behest of American intelligence. That date is significant as it preceded the onset of the
Cold War, which, according to standard U.S. historical accounts, did not begin until a
year later, according to Lee. The early courtship of Gehlen by American intelligence
suggests that Washington was in a Cold War mode sooner than most people realize. The
Gehlen gambit also belies the prevalent Western notion that aggressive Soviet policies
were primarily to blame for triggering the Cold War.
Based near Munich, Gehlen proceeded to enlist thousands of Gestapo, Wehrmacht, and
SS veterans. Even the vilest of the vile--the senior bureaucrats who ran the central
administrative apparatus of the Holocaust--were welcome in the "Gehlen Org," as it
was called, including Alois Brunner, Adolf Eichmann's chief deputy. SS major Emil
Augsburg and Gestapo captain Klaus Barbie, otherwise known as the "Butcher of Lyon,"
were among those who did double duty for Gehlen and U.S. intelligence, indicated Lee.
Sympathy for Ford's Devil
Hitler's ghost is present in the assembly lines of America's automotive manufacturers.
It's amusing listening to the Ford advertising campaign that features the Rolling Stones
song, Start Me Up. More appropriate, it seems, would be the Stone's classic recording
of Sympathy for the Devil. From 1939 to 1942, Ford Motor Company produced thousands
of combat vehicles for the Nazi's at its Cologne, Germany production facility reaping
enormous profits that would ultimately be used to design the next-generation of Ford's
driven by Americans in the 1950's. During the height of WWII, Ford shipped raw
materials from America to the Cologne plant to ensure that production would not be
interrupted by Allied bombing and that Hitler would remain a happy customer. According
to Ken Silverstein, Ford vehicles were crucial to the revolutionary Nazi military strategy
of blitzkrieg. Of the 350,000 trucks used by the motorized German Army as of 1942,
roughly one-third were Ford products. Imagine the surprise of American troops when
they saw the enemy--the Wehrmacht_driving around in Ford vehicles. "They were
understandably an unpleasant sight to men in the US Army," reported Silverstein.
IBM received lucrative contracts from the Nazi's to build databases that would be used
to determine population demographics and track down Jews, Christians and other threats
to the Nazi Party. Profits from those efforts, like Ford's, were sent home to America to
perform research and development for new profit-making technologies. It's the same
story for General Motors, Kodak, Dupont, and General Electric (owner of NBC news).
Who Won WWII?
"As the world enemy wages war against the White Race and Western Civilization in
every corner of the world, we have found that the ONLY WAY to shock our people
awake is through BOLD ACTION. Too many others would rather try to TALK the problem
away, while we realize that the time has come to FIGHT!" That from a web site of
the American Nazi Party. With the election of Arnold Schwarzenegger in California (his
father was a member of the Nazi Party opting to be a member of the storm-trooping
"Brown Shirts" who eagerly pursued and persecuted Jews, Christians and Gypsies) and
Nazi-tainted George Bush II in the White House, the American Nazi Party, the Aryan
Nations and other despicable hate groups have received an unintended acknowledgement
that their hateful struggle on behalf of the "white race" has merit.
And why shouldn't they when their government officials and so-called leaders tacitly
sanction ethnic cleansing, demean Islam and Arabs or strive to eliminate the civil
rights gains of minorities and same-sex groups.
It's no surprise to find Hitler's ghost in the offices of Senator Trent Lott who said of
white supremacist Senator Strom Thurmond_an opponent of integration and civil rights
in the 1960's-- "When Strom Thurmond ran for president, we voted for him. We're
proud of it. And if the rest of the country had followed our lead, we wouldn't have had
all these problems over all these years." Hitler's ghost visits the House side in the
offices of Representative Tom Delay, an avowed Christian Zionist, who advocates the
ethnic cleansing of the Palestinians by Israel and is a proponent of the Security Fence,
while at the same time admonishing those who will listen to him to "stand
unashamedly for Jesus Christ".
And in the Pentagon, Hitler's ideology, has a friend in the form of US Marine Corps
Lieutenant General William Boykin who believes that "God supports the US military
because we're a Christian nation, because our foundation and our roots are
Judeo-Christian...Our spiritual enemy will only be defeated if we come against them in
the name of Jesus."
That's what the Aryan Nation says too. They proclaim that they have God's support.
Like all God-fearing Nazi's, they hope "To ordain, establish, and pledge our fidelity to
our Aryan Racial Nation, under the Law of God, the uniting of our individual strength as
a united lawful power, for the preservation and total independence from all alien
influence and control over our Faith, Children, and Destiny. "
"I believe that I am acting in accordance with the will of the Almighty Creator," said
Adolf Hitler.
"God told me to strike at Al Qa'ida and I struck them. And then he instructed me to
strike at Saddam, which I did. With the might of God on our side we will triumph,"
said George Bush. Or was that Hitler talking to Bush?
Hitler's ghost haunts the United States of America.

So ignore that the U.S. was backing Saddam while he went on his killing sprees, didn't stop him when he was filling those mass graves at the end of the first Gulf War with the corpses of the poor fools who'd listened to Bush Sr. and risen up against Saddam.
Forget that cosy handshake with Donny Rumsfeld and the chemicals and germs he gave to America's ally, Saddam Hussein, to kill them uppity Iranians.
Ignore the 1953 U.S. British adventure in Middle East oil theft; that the CIA trained the Iranian secret police -- SAVAK -- too slaughtered and torture Iranians who had the nerve to complain about the American-installed Shah, after they toppled their elected leader, Mohammed Mossadeq.
Ignore all the lies and propaganda and murder for profit and put on a sunny california shit-eatin' grin.

By this convoluted reasoning, the U.S's former client Saddam Hussein himself is the perfect chap to fix the problems of the whole area, no? Or perhaps it's now the Yank's new corrupt power monger, Ahmed Chalabi?
In my humble opinion, I thought it was multilateral institutions that were supposed to decide the fate of unruly members of the world community. Or did we forget that agreement when the U.N became "irrelevant" and George W. Bush became the world's # 1 Sheriff?
Where next will he export his "freedom?" Tibet, perhaps? Or Kazakhstan? Or Liberia? Or Rwanda? Maybe North Korea, or Pakistan, or China itself.
I'm a bit confused, because the reason for the invasion of Iraq seems to keep changing with the collapse of every lie told to rationalize what everyone with half an eye on events sees as a new way of writing contracts for the likes of Halliburton, and the rest of the international military-industrial complex. But, hey, maybe we're just cynics and these corporations are actually loading their bombs with high explosive love and freedom.
That's what you're saying, right? The truckloads of dead Iraqis, dismembered by cluster bombs, in, say Hillah this spring, actually represented, G.W. Bush, cleaning up the mess of his ideological predecessors?
With Dubya's vast knowledge of intergenerational support for slaughter and mayhem (in support of oil industry profits), perhaps (again by your reasoning) this IS the chap to cleanse the world of the "sins of the fathers."
How might the "do-gooder" from Texas best realize his holy Crusade?
Do explain.

20.11.2003 21:13
Get beyond all of the motives (stated, unstated, and/or perceaved) for going to war and think about the big picture. Mass graves are bad, rape rooms are bad, torture and murder are bad. All of these things are ended in Iraq. Do you value the lives of the Iraqi's so little?

21.11.2003 12:41
Take Thailand as an example. Recently visited by Bush who offered increased support for a regime condemmed in a recent Amnesty International report for thousands of extrajudicial killings being carried out by the police/army under the guise of phony anti-drugs operations. Akah villagers in the north are being abducted, tortured and killed by the army and their childeren are then forced into missionary schools where exploitation and abuse is rife. There is genocide going on with US financial and political backing and DEA training. Torturing an old villager to death for medicinal use of opium does nothing to halt the international methamphetamine trade which is probably controlled by elements within the very army that is receiving US support.
It is like someone who kills a murderer and expects to be praised for it when everyone knows that they are also encouraging and protecting a dozen others.

Some perspective
21.11.2003 14:12
It seems some of the protesters would rather see Iraqi's thrown into paper shredders rather than have George W. Bush or Tony Blair be the one to order Saddam's removal.That is a sick misplacement of priorities and I would suggest he dig up some Christopher Hitchens to read as he provides a very clear, unbiased, bit of perspective that I feel is badly lacking from many of these protestors. Since many of these same people were silent during the wars in Bosnia where the victims were white, it opens up all sorts of nasty possibilities for those that would demean the left.

Allowing that everything you say is true, and America is the greatest evil of all time... Please explain what your solution is to save the world and make it better.
I would like to hear, just one time, something positive come from one of you people. Please explain, in complete detail, what you believe would make the world a better place. Please take your thoughts into the future and be realistic by taking account of other evils in the world. I'm already assuming that you would kill Bush and dance on his grave, you can skip that part. But, what needs to happen for the world to be a better place for us all?

a) you're implying that all of us protesting are "America haters". We're not. I'm American. My family is too. My brother's in the US military, and several times narrowly escaped getting killed while fighting in Kirkuk. He and I agree that this war is illegal, and that our president is a liar. So don't bother trying to portray us as "anti-American", because people here in the UK see through that tired old line.
It's easy to go along with any two-bit gangster who hides behind the American flag to justify his dirty work, but much harder to stand up for real American values, which are being destroyed piecemeal by the current quasi-elected bunch of crooked arms dealers in the White House.
b) you ask, "I would like to hear, just one time, something positive come from one of you people." Well I'm not sure who you think these "you people" are. I heard many varieties of opinion out on the march: Labour, Liberals, Conservatives, various nationalists, Muslims, Christians, Quakers, CND, Socialists, Anarchists, Greens, and people who don't think much at all about politics but know a crime when they see one. Most of these groups and individuals have plenty of positive things to say about all sorts of things. I couldn't begin to summarise them all here.
So when you go on to say, "Please explain, in complete detail, what you believe would make the world a better place. Please take your thoughts into the future and be realistic by taking account of other evils in the world.", I can only suggest you read a little more widely. Searching for some of the above groups in Google might be a good start.
c) you finish by asking, "I'm already assuming that you would kill Bush and dance on his grave, you can skip that part. But, what needs to happen for the world to be a better place for us all? "
No, I wouldn't kill Bush. I'm not like him. I believe in the rule of law, by the mandate of the people. So I'd like to see him put on trial, and all of his neocon pals too. Then I'd like to see them rot in prison for the rest of their lives, which is a sight better fate than what their victims can aspire to.
I personally have all sorts of ideas for making the world a better place, and would be happy to list them out in excruciating detail. But by asking that question in the context of an anti-war protest, you're implying that Bush picked a fight with Iraq to "save the world" and make it "a better place for us all". So let me ask you a question now: can you cite a single military action by the US from the 1950s onward that made that country a better place, or any of its neighbors? If you can't, then maybe the answer to your question is "fewer military invasions by the United States" would "make the world a better place for us all".

Mumia killed a cop. Just because he hijacked his own trial and turned it into a farce and even so should probably be given a new one, he still killed that cop. There were more than enough specific protests Thursday without including freedom for cop-killers.
