Europe Is Not Free (YouTube Version)

Hi. This is Odracirys, and I have something to say.  Europe is not free.   This may come as a shock to those who think that Europe is a bastion of liberal thought.  It’s merely a bastion of leftist thought, and as I have realized, left-wingers can be just as much against freedom as any right-wingers.  If you are a Classical Liberal or a centrist, I would like to make the case for voting for those you may not even strongly support, but who are in danger (as are we all) if the authorities get what they want.  Many of the powers controlling Europe are so authoritarian and despotic that they must be resisted.  They attempt to appear like they are on the side of good while destroying the freedoms that people these days take for granted.  Geert Wilders and Marine Le Pen, although they have flaws like anyone else, have been unfair targets of governmental abuse, and I feel that the best way to stop this abuse is to show the authorities that the more they try ...

Not So Nice! Francois Hollande's Hopes Come True!

French President Francois Hollande must be loving this news out of Nice, France!  (Where around 80 have  been killed, and many more maimed for life. Not so "Nice" anymore.) This morning, the public's attention was on his $132,000/yr haircuts! http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2016/07/14/486003503/frances-socialist-president-pays-nearly-11-000-a-month-for-haircuts Now, the public's attention is off of this "Socialist"'s complete betrayal of his country, and is fixated on...his complete betrayal of his country... Hey, wait! I guess sometimes, you can't get a break! It must be hard being the president of France! Being a Socialist who pays $132,000 per year for haircuts and doesn't really do anything else of value must be so tough! It's a good thing that the people of France do not care enough to rebel. After all, they will celebrate Bastile Day, commemorating the French Revolution against rulers w...

It's unbelievable how powerful the war mongering lobby has become.

The U.S. and associated client states are close to getting involved in yet another war.  And yet again, those with power (the corporate-owned media, etc) are not about to stop them...or even question them. This imperial juggernaut and its cronies have irreversibly jumped the shark.  Unleashed will be a scale of violence which dwarfs anything seen yet in the Syrian Civil War.  And the taxpayers will again be footing the bill for these unfolding atrocities.  I guess that instead of the U.S. support of the Afghan mujahideen against Russia in the 1980s serving as a warning about how you should never give military aid to a group of terrorists, it has instead become a how-to guide. One question remains.  Did the war mongers in the U.S. come up with this idea, or is has U.S. policy just become completely dictated by our "partners" in the Middle East.  After all, whenever Israel and Saudi Arabia agree on something, the U.S. is never far from implementing it.
