I linked this at instapundit some time ago. But from the fact that a friend sent me this link today, I presume it’s not widely known. The link I put at instapundit was from American Thinker. And for once their title was the most accurate thing ever: Executive Order Canceling the Constitution.
If you’re wondering how that is possible, wonder no more. You know how our government freezes assets of enemy governments? Like Iran’s assets that the FICUS is dying to unfreeze ASAP?
Well, the veneer-thin coat of legality on this bullshit relates to that. At the same time that Dementia Joe and The Commie Ho are giving money and actual nuclear tech to declared enemies of the US, they are declaring US citizens who so much as dare talk against them as enemy collaborators and traitors. And because they’re owned by China (though anyone who thinks that stopping fracking and the keystone pipeline is not a big sloppy kiss to Putin needs their heads examined. It’s in fact the kiss of life, since the only thing Russians have worth anything is oil and they were in deep trouble before China stooges stole our elections) they are of course doing it by screaming Russia, Russia Russia!
Contrary to its title, this EO is not about Russia. It is designed to allow the Biden administration to deprive American citizens and organizations of their rights and property by arbitrarily linking those persons to real, imagined, or vaguely defined activities of the Russian government.
The Biden administration unilaterally makes the determination and requires neither criminal acts nor intent. The punishment is blocking assets and a prohibition on any dealing with the accused person. Spouses and adult children of individuals found guilty by accusation under this EO are punished, too.
The EO was preceded by some distracting maneuvers, both diplomatic (hostile rhetoric toward Russia) and military (sending naval ships toward the Black Sea and recalling them back, as if dealing with Russian threats). Thus, many people assumed that the EO was directed at Russia, and completely missed the fact that it is directed at dissent here, at home.
Over the past four years, the Democrat Party, Fake News, and Big Tech have been frequently portraying their opponents as Russian trolls or Russian misinformation operators. The Russian collusion narrative, initially invented to overthrow the Trump administration, has been used to smear many conservative movements. Now this effort has been crowned by an Executive Order.
All they have to do is make a list of those they consider to be Russian agents. The executive order itself says you can’t dispute your inclusion in this list.
(c) This order is not intended to, and does not, create any right or benefit, substantive or procedural, enforceable at law or in equity by any party against the United States, its departments, agencies, or entities, its officers, employees, or agents, or any other person.
Oh, yeah, all your property will be impounded, and everyone is forbidden from doing business with you. On the say-so of corrupt agencies and people who have been lying to us for years.
And there’s nothing you can do, and anyone who helps you faces a similar fate.
This is completely fair, because on the FICUS say-so, you become an enemy of the state, and a Russian agent. Totes. Even if there’s no rational reason beyond “Russia ” (And more so China) have an interest in dissension in the US. But if this is the case, the Junta should immediately consider itself Russian agents. (They’re already China’s.)
This was signed on the 15th of April. Do you think there aren’t already things going on to make this work? Do you think that we’re not all already on that list?
Do you think it’s a coincidence you’ve not seen this bullshit anywhere? (And btw the link on top is to the government itself.)
Now, if they were sending goons to collect you, those of you who haven’t lost all your guns in a tragic boating accident would shoot, and it would be on like Donkey Kong.
But that’s not what will happen, and that’s why I’m writing this and asking everyone of you who has a blog and who knows they’re probably already on the list to share it. Or of course if you’re brave enough not to mind if you’re on the list. Note the “your spouse and adult children” too, which is intended to stop you doing anything, for the love of your kids.
I’ve seen this before. Very few people know that the “revolutionary” governments in Portugal froze bank accounts and assets of anyone who spoke out against them. One day you’d go to your bank to remove money, and you couldn’t. Your bank account was frozen as an enemy of the state.
Oh, you have a mortgage? Kids in school? Bills to pay? How terrible and sad it is that you are now functionally a pauper.
As for suddenly finding no one would give you a job, I never even figured out how word went out on that, and I don’t if anyone ever did.
Now, the times we’re living in? Will anyone notice a large number of people becoming suddenly unemployed, and/or having their house foreclosed upon? Help? Well, all they have to do is send a few people who look like government agents to your neighborhood and ask your neighbors (and friends, and associates) questions while strongly implied you’re a traitor working for a foreign power.
Your weapons? Well, then. Surely, you’ll sell them long before it comes time to …. well…. to starve I suppose.
Oh, but surely states will oppose this?
If it’s done the way it was in Portugal, most people won’t even be aware it is going on. Whatever the mechanisms are for flagging foreign enemies in the US — and they are there, and have been, from when our agencies were slightly less corrupt than they are now — will just be deployed, as they have always been, but against anyone who publicly and loudly disapproves of the Junta.
FYI that’s you and me. And anyone who believes in the Constitution and has made this clear in public at any time.
“But that’s a lot of people!”
Well, I imagine right now they’re going for “vocal”. It’s still a ton more people than they can get at gun point (where they can maybe get a 100 TV people and Trump ex-officials.)
And the thing is it will be done behind the scenes, quietly. Through extorsion, and cancelling and whisper campaigns, to discredit and destroy their enemies, and taint them with the label of foreign agents, all without a legal process or any sort of ability to confront their accusers.
At some point, they’ll “notice” the ten million or so new homeless, (hell, the opening of the borders might disguise this, rather neatly, too) and out of their “humane concern,” they’ll create places you can go and be housed and fed.
Do I need to tell you it’s a trap?
This is just a way to round up desperate people. It might also in the end be a way to get rid of the homeless, which rest assured they intend to, once they’re done using it to drive the country’s cities to shit.
Paranoid? Did you read that Executive Order? If not, go do it, I’ll wait.
Now will this be applied ruthlessly and efficiently? Guys, this lot couldn’t shoot a lame fish in a barrel. No, but it will be applied irregularly, annoyingly, and deployed as an instrument of terror to make a large number of people shut up and go along, for fear for their livelihood, their kids, their friends.
It will be, as what they’re already doing to the military and police, a shit show designed to cow people into silence and into fear of losing everything.
Will it work? Oh, for a while at least. I mean, it is working on our military and police.
In my case it puts me in a bit of a pickle, as I don’t like camping, and I’m not young enough to survive long out there. But that’s okay. Personal survival is desirable but not important.
Will it make the left win and rule forever and ever?
Snort. Giggle. They probably think so, but you’re not that stupid. Or at least I hope you aren’t.
These people can’t run the country. They can’t.
The big fatal flaw in their plans of destroying the US is that they can’t survive anywhere else. And they can’t survive in the US after they utterly destroy the economy.
I wrote this at insty yesterday, in this post:
I feel very much about this, as I felt about the early covidiocy, when I was screaming from the rooftops “look at the Diamond Princess numbers. This mostly affects the very old, and even with them it’s not that contagious” while people were coming up with creative reasons that the Diamond Princess wasn’t representative, my favorite of those being “you get the best medical care possible in a cruise ship.” Uh. No. You don’t. Of course you also don’t in our hospitals, when doctors put you on ventilators without regard for the effects of forced ventilation on the very old, which is why the death toll is what it is, but never mind.
Listen to me now, please: the democrats are not at the beginning of a 1000 year Reich. They’re not even at the beginning of a 70 year USSR. Or at the beginning of the decade-plus of Nazi rule.
What all totalitarian regimes have in common is that they screw up economies beyond belief. And I mean that. If you haven’t lived through it, you won’t believe me, but let’s say that communists managing the desert will run out of sand. And socialists will too, but slower. (And our current afflictions are not socialists. No. Shut up. Don’t care about the textbook definition which, at any rate, only the Marxists ever cared about. For all practical applications, communists are socialists in a hurry. And boy, is the Junta in a hurry. Because they are scared. And they should be.)
Do you know why the USSR and the other tragic post-World-War II Marxist regimes survived as long as they did? The US.
Because America is wealthy and can’t stand to see people starve, through humanitarian aid (and the usual traitorous would-be socialists here) we sent aid to those regimes. We kept them afloat.
In doing their best to take over the US all the left is managing is to kill the golden goose. Even if everything they plan came to pass, their regime woud last less than 5 years, because Americans will not starve peacefully.
They don’t understand that because — since China pays a lot of them directly or not — they think China can replace the US in financing their lavish lifestyles and our not-quite-starving.
They don’t get that China is already in American terms close to starvation themselves.
This is because to the left economics is not real. It’s a fantasy they can spin any way they like, and it will keep them going on unicorn farts and dreams.
But if you’re not a leftist, you know economics is “the study of how humans live and eat.” And the democrats are breaking that.
Which means it will get very, very bad in the US. Probably briefly. It will be much worse in the rest of the world.
And the left is bringing this on us, because yes, they believe they can set up the new USSR.
What I can’t understand is why the right also buys into this illusion. Just as I couldn’t understand why no one was looking at the Diamond Princess numbers.
Looking, being scared and buying into apocalyptic scenarios can be fun. Briefly. But we don’t have time for that nonsense. We have a Constitutional Republic we must rebuild. Because otherwise we’re going to be in serious trouble. Not communism, but communism is not the only kind of bad trouble. And for the rest of the world, civilization will be over.
Be not afraid, and do understand that even if the left gets everything it wants — or rather, for sure if it does — it will lose very fast. But we still need to win.
So, I know in the long run they can’t win. In fact, the harder they push, the faster they fall.
BUT–
If this goes into action, as stupid and imperfectly as it will be implemented, it will hurt and perhaps kill a lot of people.
If you’re at risk:
1- Have an alternate identity if you can. I don’t even know how to go about that, except perhaps a ring around the rosy of dbas, trusts and corps. Remember, they’re not nearly as efficient or good at tracing things as they think they are. Our secret services were redesigned by a man who can’t figure out how to go through a gate with an umbrella. And he hired people who think he’s smart.
2- Be ready to decamp at the drop of a hat, if it becomes obvious your financial life is frozen, and there’s nothing you can do for money.
Decamp where? Well, not abroad. As I pointed out above, if the wheels come off here, they’ll come off and explode abroad.
If you can own something outright through a trust or a corp or something, this might be a place to go. If you can’t…. have you considered winter camping gear?
3- Don’t leave yourself defenseless. Don’t sell weapons. Don’t consign yourself to the tender mercies of the government.
Oh, yeah, and keep your clothes and weapons where you can find them in the dark.
4- Other than that? Find a way to keep being heard. If all you can do is paint the words in blood on phone poles do so. But again, they’re not nearly as smart as they think they are. Find new identities and new ways back on line.
All you have to do is survive this for a year, maybe a little more. And the way to survive it is not to act the way the left would, which is the way they expect everyone to act.
Don’t surrender. Don’t give up. Don’t ask for help.
And keep coming back when they least expect it.
If that EO doesn’t show you they’re not Americans, they’re insane, and they mean to be dictators, I don’t know what will.
Make sure people know the powers the Junta is arrogating to itself. Make sure they can’t do this quietly.

Needs an editor. I stopped reading at the 10,000 word mark.
Tho I would very much like to hear more about the post-Salazar Portuguese experience she mentions, briefly, before resuming her journey through the cosmos...

What's really disturbing about these people is they are the same bunch that support planned parent and eugenics. Sure they claim they love minorities, but they love them getting abortions and destroying their lives so that they wear the invisible slave collars of government.

The Stanley Milgram experiment was caught in the reproducibility problem. The Washington Examiner included it in a long piece on the subject a few years ago. Key paragraphs:
When researchers, journal editors, peer-review panels, colleagues, and popular journalists share the same beliefs, confirmation bias will flourish. It’s human nature! Reading a typical behavioral science study involving race or sex, privilege or wealth or power, you can find it hard to distinguish between the experimenters’ premises and their conclusions. Better to scan the literature for what lawyers call “admissions against interest”—findings that contradict the prevailing creed. These are rare, but they exist, and they have undermined much of what behavioral scientists think they know about human behavior.
The subversion comes in many forms. A finding can often be undermined simply by looking closely at how the experiment was performed. Perhaps the most famous experiment in all of social science—I think we’re supposed to call it iconic—was undertaken in the early 1960s by Stanley Milgram, an assistant professor at Yale. Milgram was struck by the trial of the Nazi mass-murderer Adolf Eichmann, then underway in Israel.
His hunch was that Eichmann wasn’t singularly evil but merely a cog in the Nazi machine—a petty little man following great big orders. Nearly anyone, Milgram mused, could be induced to override his conscience and perform evil acts if he were instructed to do so by a sufficiently powerful authority. Even someone from Yale.
This has since become known as conformity (not confirmation) bias, another elaborate and unnecessary verbalism invented to describe a home truth: We crave the approval of our friends and families, of people we take to be like ourselves. But conformity bias has been stretched much farther. The enormous power it holds to guide our behavior has crystalized as a settled fact in behavioral science.
To test his theory Milgram told his subjects that they were participating in a study of “learning.” A man in a lab coat took the subjects one at a time into a room and told them to turn an electric dial to shock a stranger in a room next door. They were to increase the strength of the shock by increments, finally to the point of inflicting severe pain. (The shock generator was a dummy; no one was actually hurt.)
The results were an instant sensation. The New York Times headline told the story: “Sixty-five Percent in Test Blindly Obey Order to Inflict Pain.” Two out of three of his subjects, Milgram reported, had cranked the dial all the way up when the lab-coat guy insisted they do so. Milgram explained the moral, or lack thereof: The “chief finding” of his study, he wrote, was “the extreme willingness of adults to go to almost any lengths on the command of an authority.” Milgram, his admirers believed, had unmasked the Nazi within us all.
Did he? A formidable sample of more than 600 subjects took part in his original study, Milgram said. As the psychologist Gina Perry pointed out in a devastating account, Beyond the Shock Machine, the number was misleading. The 65 percent figure came from a “baseline” experiment; the 600 were spread out across more than a dozen other experiments that were variations of the baseline. A large majority of the 600 did not increase the voltage to inflict severe pain. As for the the participants in the baseline experiment who did inflict the worst shocks, they were 65 percent of a group of only 40 subjects. They were all male, most of them college students, who had been recruited through a newspaper advertisement and paid $4.50 to participate.
The famous 65 percent thus comprised 26 men. How we get from the 26 Yalies in a New Haven psych lab to the antisemitic psychosis of Nazi Germany has never been explained.
Many replications of the Milgram experiments have succeeded, many have failed. But its importance to behavioral science cannot be overstated. It helped establish an idea that lies at the root of social psychology: Human beings are essentially mindless creatures at the mercy of internal impulses and outside influences of which they’re unaware. We may think we know what we’re doing most of the time, that we obey our consciences more often than not, that we can usually decide to do one thing and not another according to our own will. Behavioral scientists insist they know otherwise. This is the “mindlessness bias,” a just-invented (by me) term to describe the tendency of social psychologists to believe that their subjects are chumps.
There are other interpretations of Milgram’s results, after all, that are not quite so insulting to human nature. Perhaps the shockers were indeed conscious moral agents; maybe they had been persuaded they were participating in Science and, given the unlikelihood that a Yale Ph.D. student would let them cause harm, they were willing to do what they were told to advance the noble cause. Later interviews showed that most subjects thought this at the time of the experiments and were glad they had participated for precisely this reason. Others said they assumed the experiment was a ruse but went along anyway—some because they didn’t want to disappoint that nice man in the lab coat, some because they worried they might not get the $4.50. The theory that they did what they did “blindly,” as the Times headline said, is an assumption, not a finding.
As one would-be replicator of the Milgram experiment, a heterodox researcher named Michael Shermer, wrote: “Contrary to Milgram’s conclusion that people blindly obey authorities to the point of committing evil deeds because we are so susceptible to environmental conditions, I saw in our subjects a great behavioral reluctance and moral disquietude every step of the way.”

Yes, our reality of the times. Not all will drink the cool aide. Followers will follow. Then for some reason some people evade the programing. The end is always the same. They fail massively in one way or another. This error is reoccurring. Perhaps a revolution is actually a good thing. The new growth will occur only to become enlightened and progressive. On and on. The definition of insanity.

the human race has had a tulip mania. Dot com bust. Y2k. Witch trials. Red scare. The proximate focus of each is different, the overt sameness of the gullibility is repetitive. Just as the left was able to bork Robert Bork but not repeat the feat with Clarence Thomas or Brett Kavanaugh (not for lack of trying) they will gnash their teeth when they try to foist Fauxi 2.0 and the majority of people just laugh cynically and move on.

Commentary by Russian military journalist Boris Rozhin
[ColonelCassad] A new film based on the PMC Wagner franchise is on its way.
In the film "Granite", with the participation of the heroes of the films "Tourist" and "Solntsepek", PMCs go to work in Mozambique.
To fight local militants, the government of Mozambique hired both Russian PMCs and South Africans.
Also in the area of problems of Mozambique, the notorious Eric Prince was spinning. Since the spring of 2021, a group of American Green Berets has also been working in Mozambique, also training the local military.
South African PMCs. Amnesty International accused the South African PMC of involvement in the deaths of civilians as a result of attacks using light helicopters.
Ours in Mozambique.
According to press reports (however, not particularly confirmed by anything, during the fighting in Mozambique, the Russian PMC had from two to seven killed.
ISIS militants are actively operating in northern Mozambique, having under arms 2-2.5 thousand people who are waging a war relying on bases in the jungle, periodically arranging raids on army defensive positions and settlements, sometimes even capturing large coastal cities.
The local military is, at best, poorly competent in counter-terrorism matters, so the government of Mozambique is constantly looking for help on the side. It pays for aid both in money and access to minerals (in particular, to gold mines).
So far, the ISIS problem in Mozambique has not been resolved. The militants seek to transform into a full-fledged ISIS wilayat and take over the entire country in order to make it a base for further ISIS expansion into neighboring countries.
Given the scale of the activity, there are at least a few more films ahead of us.
If we talk about the film, then if they can shoot at least at the level of "Tourist" and "Sunshine", then it's already not bad. Plus, they will also highlight the little-publicized theme of Mozambique and Russian participation in local affairs, although it is unlikely that someone will reveal all the cards in the film.
The trailer is terribly translated, so be advised. And I agree with Rozhin, it looks like the film is going to be pretty good.
I just hope I get another prerelease screening as I did with Sunshine.

Spoiler alert: At first the government turned to foreign mercenaries in the form of Russian and South African military contractors whose main job was to keep the onshore Total facilities and their foreign workers safe. First came the several hundred Russian Wagner Group men who arrived in August 2019 and, while they had some success in halting the Islamic terrorist threat to the LNG facilities, the Russians suffered heavier casualties than anticipated and Wagner left in early 2020 after spending about eight months in Mozambique.
[NY Post] The two-hour video tete-a-tete on Tuesday between President Biden and Russian strongman Vladimir Putin has predictably not borne fruit for America. Biden issued stern warnings about sanctions that were widely celebrated in the American press. But Putin was already well aware of these warnings. The session was, in fact, a hollow exercise in showmanship. And Putin stole the show.
Instead of being a moment for projecting US resolve, the meeting was just another step in Biden’s ongoing, unintentional plan to help Putin make Russia great again by allowing the Russian president to reassert his influence over the nations of the former Soviet Union.
The mere act of Putin having a one-on-one meeting with the US president is a win for Moscow’s spymaster, who craves being perceived as a top dog in global geopolitics. It makes Russia seem on a par with the United States, which it certainly is not.
The call was followed by a terrible blunder. Biden granted Moscow the guarantee that the US will not use force to stop Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. While using force against Russia is a bad idea with respect to Ukraine, which is not part of NATO or a critical US asset, Biden abandoned a valuable tool, the principle of strategic ambiguity. Biden could have kept Putin off balance and unsure of what we would do. But by stating that force was "not on the table," Biden may have guaranteed that Russia will proceed militarily into Ukraine.
[NATION.PK] The horrific lynching of a Sri-Lankan manager in Sialkot left every Pak embarrassed. The employees of Rajco Industries unleashed the attack on an innocent Sri-Lankan manager using the pretext of blasphemy ...the act of insulting or showing contempt or lack of reverence to a deity, or sacred objects, or toward something considered sacred or inviolable. Some religions consider it to be a crime. In Pakistain you can commit blasphemy by looking cross-eyed at a Koran... . A charged mob killed the manager and then set his dead body on fire. What happened in Sialkot portrays a very grim picture of tolerance in Pakistain. Sadly, the first inquiry report has unearthed shocking realities. The inquiry report suggests that a delegation from a foreign country had to visit the factory and manager Priyantha Kumara asked to remove the stickers having religious writings. Workers were already annoyed by Mr Kumara’s principle to maintain discipline. Additionally, at the time of the gloomy incident, the arrangements of cleanliness were being made. Walls were being painted. Furthermore, Mr Kumara removed some stickers at 10:28 am that created some inconvenience between the manager and workers. The inquiry further reveals that the manager was not familiar with the workers’ language, then factory owners mediated, and the issue was resolved. The manager apologised for the misunderstanding but some workers abetted others to kill him. All the security guards and factory owners bravely ran away from the spot. Given this information, it is not difficult to deduce that Mr Kumara was possibly innocent, but extremism made him a culprit unjustly. The false use of blasphemy laws is becoming rife day by day.
If we talk through an Islamic lens, the mob has killed and burnt the whole of humanity as per Koranic teachings. Accusing someone of blasphemy, killing him unjustly and taking the law into his hands is against Islam. Those who pave the way for corruption on earth can never be true Moslems.
Many factors are responsible for extremism in Pakistain; one of the unavoidable factors is the Tehrik-e-Labaik Ya Rasool (TLP). Whether the factory workers were affiliated with TLP or not, psychologically, they were TLP’s supporters. The government’s inefficiency and incompetency gave breathing space to TLP. Salman Taseer’s killing and the hanging of Mumtaz Qadri gave impetus to the rise of TLP as a movement. Then, Faizabad’s sit-in paved the way for its entry into the political arena. TLP has tempted people to take the law in their own hands and has never condemned the misuse of blasphemy laws. Bowing down to TLP pressure again and again, the government has made TLP more powerful. A news report shows that from November 2017 to October 2021, seven protests have been staged by the TLP, and seven agreements have been signed. Using TLP for political gains to destabilise the PLM-N government proved disastrous for the future of the country. TLP is expanding gradually and it can be a serious threat to our national security. In 2018, TLP bagged 2.2 million votes and emerged as the fifth largest party of Pakistain and third largest in Punjab.
Giving more room to a radical version of Islam will pose a threat to peace to society. No one is against capital punishment to those who disrespect the last Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W). But it is a matter of the judiciary, not an individual to do this. If an individual kills someone using blasphemy allegations, he will be a a murderer. The process of prosecution and inquiry of blasphemy cases must be meticulous. If the evidence does not prove someone guilty of blasphemy, then the accuser must be punished severely.
There are some important suggestions to cope with the current situation of extremism. First of all, the writ of the state needs to be established. The majority of the issues are emanating from the poor rule of law and a weak writ of the state. Using these religious snuffies for political gains is no more affordable. Secondly, the government must conduct an all-Mashaikh conference in which almost all distinguished custodians of shrines should take part. All Mashahiq should strictly direct their followers not to take part in any vigilantism. Similarly, an all-Ulema conference should be conducted to send a clear message to followers—that no one will take the law in their own hands. In case if any follower goes against this, the Learned Elders of Islam will not try to save him from the law. There should be a consensus among the Learned Elders of Islam and Mashahiq that taking law in one’s own hands is not acceptable and no one can kill anyone using blasphemy allegations. It is a matter of the judiciary, not the individuals. Thirdly, extremism is increasing in universities also. We need to develop centres for Islamic research in universities. Violent groups of students like the Jamaat Talaba-I-Islam should be discouraged in universities like the Punjab 1.) Little Orphan Annie's bodyguard
2.) A province of Pakistain ruled by one of the Sharif brothers
3.) A province of India. It is majority (60 percent) Sikh and Hindoo (37 percent), which means it has relatively few Moslem riots.... University. These violent mostly peaceful groups got political support from politicians which helped them survive. Fourthly, unfortunately, many teachers and students in universities think that sidelining religion is the only way out of extremism. They have to know that understanding religion is the solution. Fifth, religious seminaries should be under the government’s control and the government should make a head of Madaris with a doctorate in Islamic Studies and have a good understanding of the Koran and Sunnah. Last but not least; over 20 million children are out of school—they are more prone to find comfort in turban thought. We must rectify this.

They'll order quarantines for a case of the sniffles, but not for this?
[JPost] Israel and the Mossad will hit the Islamic Republic when it deems necessary, but it particularly likes to do so juxtaposed to when Tehran has angered the IAEA.
Much of what was in Saturday’s New York Times report about Israel’s covert war on Iran’s nuclear program was previously known, but some important new details tie together some dots in critical ways. Here are two new takeaways:
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
...the act of insulting or showing contempt or lack of reverence to a deity, or sacred objects, or toward something considered sacred or inviolable. Some religions consider it to be a crime. In Pakistain you can commit blasphemy by looking cross-eyed at a Koran...
• Mossad/Israel like to hit Iran when it angers the IAEA
