Palestinians Should do what Egyptians did?

I don’t think the world should be as complicated as it is.
This is what makes some people buy into conspiracy theories.
That the world is simply everything we are in it. If a politicians rises out of the ashes of his home he can be great but the legacy they leave behind is only decided upon the goodness in their acts or the evil by which he lived by.

Hitler killed and murder millions of people, many of them were Jewish, or gay, or mentally challenged. Instead of seeing the human being as an anachronistic creature which thinks too much about life and needs to have purpose and validation through toil, he decided to start killing and he just so happened to kill the people who he could because human beings also developed some contempt for their fellow man.

Is what Israelis do to Palestinians not similar?
Have they not designated living spaces in Israel for Palestinians?
Do Palestinians not struggle and starve and seek vengeance because their dignity is stripped from them?
Do they not find strength by accepting help from those who sympathize with their plight?
Its obvious what they endure, yet the world still goes on just like it did when millions were being slaughtered by Hitler.
Is it because we judge and weigh everything we do in order to justify our deemed purpose in life?
Which is to say we see Hitler as worse evil than the evil that Palestinians face from the state of Israel.

Perhaps it is time for non violent resistance to gain popularity again. Ghandi probably saw the evil in the way any of us are capable of seeing evil acts today. What he did however is emphasize the glaringly obvious with the unrelenting strength of numbers and discipline.

The Palestinian Authority and its security forces and its partners should encroach on israel by sacrificing everything they have.
The Palestinian people continue to fight with suicide bombs and mortar fire because they too have hate in their hearts. Perhaps its justified, but killing rarely can be on political motives.
If suicide bombers kill in the name of a brother or a sister or a mother or a father who have died directly or indirectly at the hands of an israel soldier (robotic or human) they are still doing it in the name of a political cause.
That is why suicide bombings never help Palestinians get any concessions.

What needs to happen is the same thing that has happened in Egypt. I don’t think that Israel would hesitate in using hostile military force but I do think that the stance one takes can morally destroy the capacity of standing armies to continue fighting in todays world.
Its being proven to us when we see Evil acts shrivel away at the resistance of a numbered many.
Palestinian groups should begin talking about demonstrations that challenge checkpoints in numbers numbering 10s of thousands.
They should alert their sympathetic friends at aljazeerah and CNN or maybe even MSNBC and just do it with the understanding that every Palestinian that dies weakens israel further into the unnecessary.

It would have been unnecessary for Hosni Mubbarak to demand the military to strike its people. It would be seen as unnecessary for Israel to destroy people who feel oppressed.
The irony wouldn’t be lost on the world anymore.

Perhaps the first act should be by burning down their own hovels and infrastructure. Then marching on the walls. The blood of their family would cry out to its neighbors and embarrass israels allies.

American Self Loathing: The firing of Rick Sanchez and Juan Williams

Dear executive at NPR

The firing of Juan Williams is appaling. I don’t agree with everything everybody has to say about fears and beliefs. It’s clear that people have beliefs (though false) based on true accounts they experienced.
It’s sad but true that anytime I have walked into a crowded train at 9am for work and I see a Muslim man who looks educated and somewhat north american but with a back pack thoughts run across my mind and think. “Bomb”.

Look at the way this terrorism bulshit has been used as a method of crowd control. During the bush era the terror alert was almost always yellow. Americans were always being told to keep an eye out for suspicious activity and on TV anytime a muslim was captured in some place around the world conspiring against American interests we would see the enemy look like fanatical scribes wearing garbs of foreign looking clothes juxtoposed to their incognito monikers of free wheeling drinking spies here to sabotage our perception of safety.

You see it’s ideal to live in a world where we didn’t have to worry about somebody blowin themselves up because they happened to be waging a jihad against America but wake the fuck up already; civilian aircraft was used to destroy iconic images of American vitality. People hate America more than they ever have in the peoples history of the United states.
Rivals are gunning to even the playing field and are dragging their feet as muslim factions conspire to cut off the head of the dragon.
Why is it that in the United States people are being fired for voicing their opinions?
Why does it appear that belief systems are not adequetly challenged and that the last bastion of discourse exists only during the hours where Jon Stewart begins and Stephen Colbert ends.
It’s lame
America is a nation of lame asses who are either too smart for their own good or just fucking retarded.
Where is the empathy and common understanding? why are people with the name sanchez or Juan always being fired??? Just because they are saying whateveryone is thinking.
Nobody is saying it’s right but how do you work toward seriously ending the misconceptions about Jews and Muslims??? by allowing Jewish or Muslim people the opportunity to argue those perceptions which were induced by the circumstantial fact that north Easter Jewish people have a certain affinity toward one another and more than likely have built up a certain perspective that allowed Rick sanchez to develop an excluded sentiment.
Or the goddamn concept that a muslim lookin person might just be ready to blow you up just because you so happen to be a nobody shlub on an airplane or subway train.

NPR

Please don’t do this. Don’t spiral out of control and react in such a terrible knee jerk manner because it makes you lose credibility.
This is the kind of crap I would expect from CNN on the shear fact they’re a corporate brand and sponsors might be miffed that a demographic they might be catering to finds CNN anti semetic just because he happens to think the way he does.
But wait what’s that? Juan Williams was putting NPRs impartiality into question? Well all I know now is that NPR is partial to burying their head I’m the sand!
My god didn’t you pay attention when George Bush acknowledged another conflict caused by American geopolitics blowing up in your patriotic face. When he waged war on terrorism he was declaring a state of being that included the fact that american interests now lie in undermining the rise of China by stirring up a terrible hornets net in order to control strategic energy positions in the middle east and Russia.

Are Americans going to be blind to the fact that they picked a bone with people who have lived and been ruled by kings and dictators while the rest of the world sorted out the playing board since the treaty of versailles.
Recognize that Americans are the enemy and fix it by holding people accountable to their views! Don’t shut them out because it only makes apparent how in denial you are. That nobody likes you and you try to block out their resentments and contempt by silencing those who ask the first questions which lead to better questions.
You can’t question anything in America can you? With all your talk about freedom it’s bulshit isn’t it?
Americans wonder how congresional candidates and senatorial candidates are today being picked to have such extreme views but the answr lies in this narrow minded suppression by a status quo that’s too stoned to live and too stupid die.

ROB FORD SPOUSAL ABUSE ALLEGATIONS FALSE!

It no longer surprises me the way the liberal fronts are able to rally around serious charges against more pragmatic and less polished individuals within the realm of politics. The NOW magazine has consistently insinuated that Rob Ford beat up his wife when in fact it turned out that the man was exonerated and that at the time of the allegations, Rob Ford had been allowed custody of the children by Children’s Aid Society. This would have been a highly unusual case considering the extremity of the allegation at the time.
Nevertheless, despite the charges having been withdrawn and the future Mayor of Toronto having been exonerated, the left wing herd systematically accuse him of being a wife beater.

This works quite well in the realm of knowledge and reality.

Do liberals know anything about telling the truth?

Based on the current assertions by newspapers like Now Magazine and cyclist organizations who are threatened by Rob Ford’s pragmatic and objective point of view (one that the majority seems to agree with) they seem to have failed in accepting what is true because despite the evidence which exonerated Ford of all charges, the left wing ideologues continue their faith induced belief system that the man is above all things a wife beater.

The Toronto Star even reported in 2008 that all evidence pointed to Rob Ford’s innocence. If anything, Rob Ford should have been hailed for having approached a provocative situation with the foresight that he showed. He maintained his convictions because he was innocent, he presented evidence indicating his innocence and in the last 24 months hasn’t embroiled himself in any domestic controversy.
Yet here the liberals are so far from the actual reality that is presented in their faces that they maintain their false belief system and continue to consume false information.

This isn’t like the staff that works at Bay Bloor Radio. This isn’t ignorance and contempt for younger clientèle but rather a false belief system that is dangerous because it inhibits the ability of the collective good from being able to express the real concerns that Toronto citizens have today. For the looney left it seems, at least in Toronto, progressive ideas are always under attack because the person who expresses restraint is deemed to be socially flawed. Its appalling that within eight years, David Miller, another product of Aristocratic self loathing manages to allow the city to endure law suits for broken contracts (port authority bridge) revolting public actions by the likes of Adam Giambrone – a David Miller protege – and the unraveling of a middle class that has been virtually taxed to death. Its like… despite David Miller’s unbelievable agenda to tax the hell out of your modest homeowner, he decided to also stick it to them by increasing the drivers license renewal rates by two fold. The agendas are even further enabled by the candidates you see running against Ford. The really infuriating thing about all this is the euphemisms tossed around to describe the likes of Joe Pantalone as “Miller Lite”. He’s not Miller Lite! The man is anything but “Lite”. Despite the campaign promises to reduce only some (or just one) of the extreme policies that he allowed Miller to pursue while Miller was anything but a lame duck mayor; Joe Pantalone is Miller Extreme. If Pantalone is elected, hes going to bend to the same unions that David Miller bent to and its because they do not have a strategy to negotiate; in this race the only one that appears to be willing to use the collateral of utilizing private enterprise with government partnerships is Ford and its because he wants to sway the aggressive bargaining position Union Lawyers have taken in this city. It’s the same thing with Smitherman and Rocco Rosi(e) who despite the effeminate manner he carries himself in plans only to manage the state of affairs in Toronto rather than fix them; Rocco Rossi may be an outsider but hes a corporate demagogue who in an instant would sell out the interests of the city for whatever cushy board of directors seat he’s been promised by his corporate backers (possibly the Burger Shack franchise which I urge Torontonians to boycott for their relentless and unbecoming support of the most reactionary choice available).

Many among the leftwing are quite puzzled in this election on what could possibly be the appeal that Rob Ford has. He isn’t the most charismatic and he certainly does not look like someone who wants to carry himself with poise, but what the left continues to miss is that despite Ford’s foibles, he talks about what he believes in and is able to retain his integrity by allowing Toronto voters to judge him on his record and his votes because they’re available to be assessed; hes the only one who at least voted against Miller’s drastic approach to building Toronto and in fact, as we have experienced because of Miller, regular people have just had to leave the city because its unaffordable to live in and hardworking Torontonians are stuck paying for the deficit and taxes that have scared away small business owners.

This election, unlike Millers election, which was based more on the bitter taste Lastman left in the mouth of even his most ardent supporters is about choosing what you can understand and nobody understands the other candidates; whether its because they are bureaucratic men who managed to support every single piece of David Miller’s agenda or whether they want to present themselves as outsiders. At the end of the day they are just empty suits and Rob Ford is a candidate who’s substance can barely fit inside his trousers and thats exactly the kind of leadership the City needs to stand up to the nepotism that is running rampant in municipal Government.

The End of No Frills Starts With This.

No Frills: To Whom it may concern!

I am very concerned after watching your advertisment. What I saw was
an animated O.J Simpson, former Hymen trophy winner and double murderer
depicting what appeared to be casual grocery shopping on Wednesday night.
As cheap as I understand No Frills to be in terms of how they pay middle aged
women, Philipino men who carry in the food, charging 25 cents for yellow bags when
the rest of private businesses stick to the bare minimum of 5 cents per bag
I think its ill advised to use a blatant represantation of a cold blooded Killer.

I order you to stop what you are doing.
I have already begun informing others of your dispicable insensitivity.

Yours Truly

Bay Bloor Radio – A Terrible Toronto sales Experience

I wrote an open letter to everyone I know in media about Bay Bloor Radio and their disappointing sales strategy, I thought I will allow resourceful Music lovers to judge based on my experiences.

Hi there,

I’ve decided I want Grado and I wanted to order directly from the source.
The reason I want to do this is because I went to Bay Bloor Radio in Toronto and was trying to find something I would be happy to own forever.
That’s my outlook on consumerism. The products worth purchasing are the ones that you want to hold onto and take care of.
So while I was there a sales guy seemed reluctant to let me try one of the referencing models that you guys make, the 325s to be exact, in fact we never actually looked at the Grados he insisted on style, insisted they were the best of both worlds. We looked at compact AKG models and Denon models and I ended up liking the bass from the AKG but when I finally got to work and listened for 8 hours I found myself remorseful for the price that I paid for something that seemed to lack in the mid-range and also had this annoying design flaw that anytime I turned my head to acknowledge one of my colleagues the cable would loosen and my music experience would be hampered (they were those AKG179s). I ended up returning them and getting my money back, I ended up feeling sorry for any twenty something “audiophile” with a decent job and a reasonable income who probably didn’t realize they’ve made a mistake until after the 7 day money back guarantee and had to keep whatever Dr. Dre was pushing or whatever AKG promised to be “the best” or whatever the sales reps assumption was at being the best.
I understand that companies like Apple can put design aesthetics at the forefront of their accessorized items, but that’s because when you’re using the actual piece of hardware they produce you’re impressed with the substance as much as you are with their simplified designs. It isn’t the same for a boutique like Bay Bloor Radio, they don’t make things, they sell things, and it seems upon the impression they convey that its all style and no substance when it comes to the interests of the consumer.

I know that at Bay Bloor Radio if the store only let me listen to the grado sr125i I probably would have been a happy consumer and satisfied for what I paid, sure they are a substantially cheaper pair of headphones but man do they sound great. I was only dissuaded from trying them because of the discouraging remarks by the associate.
Now I’ve had the opportunity to try your higher end “referencing” models and even though I can’t afford the PS1000s (not for lack of resources but rather because I love my young and beautiful wife very much and would rather take her out to a nice dinner then spending all my time in the den) I trust that the referencing models would be right for a discerning consumer like myself. I don’t want to give my business to Bay Bloor Radio, the store could burn in hell for all I care. To think they have a quality product sitting right there. A product that could sell itself if people were allowed to try it and its looked upon by the ignorant sales staff as an old looking uncool piece of hardware. I’ll tell you whats cool. Just keep following the words to the paragraph below.

Quality, A quality listening experiencing. If you’re a consumer who walks into a place like that you must already have some idea of what you want to hear and even though I’ll admit the slicker models from other manufactures appeal to most people in their twenties, people in their twenties also consider timeless designs and that’s whats cool about Grado, that clunky old look where they dedicate their craftsmanship to making affordable high quality sonic experiences, that’s what people would really appreciate if they were given the chance.
Companies like MonsterCable depend on Dr. Dre’s shameless need to run ads before a movie or after Colbert Report, but at the end of the day the rubber splits the plastic breaks and the sound is synthetic and dependent on batteries,lame, Grado speaks for itself and sadly the sales experience provided by Bay Bloor Radio gives you the impression they have no idea that in business consumers will know whats best and will appreciate being judged on their appearance if its assumed by the representative that the consumer will value quality over style every single time they get the chance to try out what peaks their interest, it shouldn’t matter if the product is half the retail price or twice as much as the pitching item.

So how do I order directly from you Mr. Grado Labs? I couldn’t find a link on the website that allowed this and I’m encouraging my high fidelity counterparts to proceed to the retailer that can provide me exactly what I need, honesty and integrity in business.

Cheers
