UPRISING, IF ONLY IT WERE SO.

This is a hopeful song that has been playing these days. It's by a group called MUSE.

I sincerely believe it should replace the UNITED STATES' NATIONAL ANTHEM.

Because more than ever, we need this now.

It's called UPRISING.

I know that it is not likely. There album is called THE RESISTANCE. But realistically, there is minimal resistance coming from WE THE SHEEPLE.

Just compliance.

The power elite say, just wait for health care and WE wait.

The power elite tell us pay your taxes, play your video games, don't ask too many questions, sit down, keep quiet.

And we the sheeple COMPLY.

Here is the video:



here are the lyrics:

The paranoia is in bloom,

the PR The transmissions will resume

They'll try to push drugs

Keep us all dumbed down

and hope that We will never see the truth around

Another promise, another scene,

another

A package not to keep us trapped in greed

With all the green belts wrapped around our minds

And endless red tape to keep the truth confined



They will not force us

They will stop degrading us

They will not control us

We will be victorious



Interchanging mind control

Come let the revolution take it's toll

if you could Flick the switch and open your third eye,

you'd see that We should never be afraid to die

Rise up and take the power back, it's time that

The fat cats had a heart attack,

you know that Their time is coming to an end

We have to unify and watch our flag ascend



They will not force us

They will stop degrading us

They will not control us

We will be victorious They will not force us

They will stop degrading us

They will not control us

We will be victorious

I only wish this were true. I only wish movies like V FOR VENDETTA would inspire more action. Unfortunately, no action will be taken until we are in Homeland Security Camps and the guys with rifles are telling us it is for our own good.

USA, WE THE PEOPLE, WHO GETS SERVED?

“ULTIMATE LOYALTY TO SERVE COUNTRY” General Yueh Fei ‘s mother SOUTHERN SONG DYNASTY, CHINA

I read that today. It made me think of the term patriotism. From the Latin, Patria, country.Serve your country. But what is your country? What is loyalty? At any given point in time, a country is governed by an elected administration. They are transient. The people’s will is like fashion. It changes. It’s whimsical. So again what is country? Is it the literal geographic coordinates we occupy? If so how does one determine how one may best serve one’s country?

I dismiss the idea of service to a given administration. I didn’t vote for GWBush. Look at the shape this USA is in today. It’s monumentally depressed. It is engaged, against the will of the majority of the people, in a synthesized war predicated on the flimsiest excuse of “to prevent terrorism over there from coming over here”. This manufactured war is costing blood of men and women who mistakenly think they are serving their country. In reality they are serving the greed of war profiteers, Bush and his cronies, who could care less about the deaths of these people.

Which brings me to my current outrage that American citizens could honestly think that electing John McCain as our next President will fix the ills that our nation is currently beset with. The definition of insanity is: performing the same actions repeatedly and expecting a different outcome.

John McCain has voted 90% of the time exactly in step with Bush. So he shall be more of the same. That is NOT what we need to fix this country.

And again, my point is you can not serve a country until you decide what your country is. Or what you imagine it to be. I am an American by birth. But far too often I feel like a stranger in this land.

My definition of what my country is this: A place that lets me pursue happiness and flourish. Where I can watch my children lead happy lives. Where there is unity and harmony among the people. Where my taxes are used for services like education, health care, food and shelter.

I pay taxes. I am of the mindset that you get what you pay for. I am most certainly NOT getting what I’m paying for, and neither are you my fellow citizen.

Barack Obama is not an experienced leader in the sense of having governed or mayored etc. But he is an intelligent man who gives one the impression that he genuinely wants to help ALL the people, not just the small minority of the very rich. That makes better sense to me.

9/11/01 How Stupid Do American Political Puppeteers Think We Are?

"When they kick out your front door
How you gonna come?
With your hands on your head
Or on the trigger of your gun"
The Guns of Brixton, The Clash


Obviously people have very strong feelings about the horrible events that took place in New York City on September 11th 2001. I learned this first-hand when I expressed my own conclusion that the story which was circulated by the mainstream media was not the truth.
One person criticized me, saying how can you believe this after watching one film (ZEITGEIST)?
Here's the other film you can watch for yourself: 9/11 Revisited

We need to consider ALL options. That is the scientific method. It's too horrifying to think that a mass murder of nearly three thousand people could have been perpetrated by our own fellow Americans BUT there is compelling evidence that points to just that. And it sickens me to the very core of my being. To ignore this evidence, however, is to leave oneself open for victimization. Essentially, to curl up in a ball while punches and kicks are rained down upon you, hoping that eventually the tormentor will get tired and leave. That shall not happen.
Knowledge is power. "9/11 Never Forget" is a popular slogan that I see on the backs of cars, and pickup trucks, on the front of fire houses in New York City and around the rest of the country, and many other local pubs etc. BUT people have forgotten. People can't be bothered. They have to get on with their own day to day existences. Pursuits of happiness.

What about ACCOUTABILITY? Isn't that what our system of Law and Justice is all about? If one man murders another man, the crime is investigated, the murderer is pursued by law enforcment, hunted down, arrested, brought to trial, judged by a "jury of his peers" and sentenced to punishment.
So if a group of individuals commits an act that results in the murder of thousands, should this group not also be investigated, pursued, arrested, tried and sentenced? Apparently not. Not when the group is wealthy, controls the mass media, and has highly placed agents of the federal bureaus of investigation and departments of justice destroying evidence and engaging in deceptions for them. And especially not as long as the citizenry remain blissfully content to accept a story rife with blatant inconsistencies...until they come for you.

First They Came for the Jews

First they came for the Jews and I did not speak out because I was not a Jew. Then they came for the Communists and I did not speak out because I was not a Communist. Then they came for the trade unionists and I did not speak out because I was not a trade unionist. Then they came for me and there was no one left to speak out for me.
