COLLECTIVE MADNESS


“Soft despotism is a term coined by Alexis de Tocqueville describing the state into which a country overrun by "a network of small complicated rules" might degrade. Soft despotism is different from despotism (also called 'hard despotism') in the sense that it is not obvious to the people."

Bombs for Bongs. Iraq and Afghanistan exchange ideas.

For some time, it has been obvious that tactics learned in Iraq have been spreading to Afghanistan as IEDs are becoming a common problem for Nato troops in Afghanistan. Roadside bombs kill troops both in Iraq and Afghanistan at an alarming rate. It was a technique developed in Iraq and transferred to Afghanistan.

Trade of goods and ideas is always a two way street and this time it is in the other direction from Afghanistan to Iraq. Opium production is starting in Iraq:

Opium: Iraq's deadly new export
Amid the anarchy, farmers begin to grow opium poppies, raising fears that the country could become a major heroin supplier

By Patrick Cockburn in Baghdad
Published: 23 May 2007
The Independent


Farmers in southern Iraq have started to grow opium poppies in their fields for the first time, sparking fears that Iraq might become a serious drugs producer along the lines of Afghanistan.

Rice farmers along the Euphrates, to the west of the city of Diwaniya, south of Baghdad, have stopped cultivating rice, for which the area is famous, and are instead planting poppies, Iraqi sources familiar with the area have told The Independent.

The shift to opium cultivation is still in its early stages but there is little the Iraqi government can do about it because rival Shia militias and their surrogates in the security forces control Diwaniya and its neighbourhood. There have been bloody clashes between militiamen, police, Iraqi army and US forces in the city over the past two months.

The shift to opium production is taking place in the well-irrigated land west and south of Diwaniya around the towns of Ash Shamiyah, al Ghammas and Ash Shinafiyah. The farmers are said to be having problems in growing the poppies because of the intense heat and high humidity. It is too dangerous for foreign journalists to visit Diwaniya but the start of opium poppy cultivation is attested by two students from there and a source in Basra familiar with the Iraqi drugs trade.

  1. Three people carrying over 70 kilograms of narcotic drugs, one-third of them heroin, were caught in Tajikistan over the past day, Interior Ministry spokesman Khudoinazar Asoyev told Itar-Tass.

    He said the detainees include an Afghan citizen, who was trying to sell over 25 kilograms of heroin, a local resident carrying 33 kilograms of opium, and a 13-year-old Dushanbe schoolboy with about three kilograms of heroin.

    “It is a rare case when the police arrest a child selling so much narcotic drugs,” he said.

    Top Quality stuff, John Fund, born in Tucson, on immigration,

    description by Dennis of the time Montecito neighbor Andy Granatelli took him back to Indy, staying in the seedy motel in the middle of the track, his ride in the 2 seat demo car, expecting a liability lawsuit avoiding bore, only to be thrashed about by the G-Forces as he whizzed by his wife 2 times in what seemed like 8 seconds, reaching 180mph before braking for the turn.
    Said when he got out, all he could think about was guys going 50 mph faster in traffic for 2 hours.
    Not a bad description by Mr Miller!

    Then came Yaron Brook, Executive Director of the Ayn Rand Institute.
    Classic discussion of Iraq, sounded like innumerable ones here and BC, with Dennis the W Booster claiming we had to fight a non-war first, "given the political realities of the time" (fingernails on a chalkboard) his objectivist friend asserting we simply needed to prosecute a real war brutally, as in the past, taking on real enemies at the same time.

    In the 1960's Ayn was deconstructing and destroying environmentalism before it was called Environmentalism.

  5. Just another case of "money trumps everything".

    Instead of destroying the poppy fields, as we should have, we made them the basis for economic renewel in Afghanistan.

    The country used to be world-renowned for its pomegranates, avocados, lavender and artichokes.

    Evil produces more evil, and now the drugs are spreading through Iraq to support the terrorist's efforts.

    Who buys these drugs? Americans and Europeans for the most part.

  12. Doug,

    You might have cut too deep. Admittedly it's almost an artform but a gentle touch,applied at sundown, will usually produce the desired results.

    The stuff grows wild in parts of Montana ( as well as my mother in laws yard). I found one could get a fine harvest for one to three only one plant and a nights minimum work. When the flowers go to seed, scrape the seed pods with a pin. Do it all
    around the pod. As you do so, you will see little blobs of white coming
    out. Leave the wounds to seep for a few hours.

    A couple of hours later, go back and harvest your opium. By now, the white
    blobs will have turned into black tar that can be scraped off and collected
    on an old, blunt dinner knife or some such.

    This really does work, and it is legal to grow the flowers. (at least, it
    is in the UK.) However, once you start to scratch them, I suspect that you
    become party to a conspiracy to manufacture. Not very clever. So be
    careful.

    As far as the conversion to heroin goes, I've no idea, but as they say in
    the hills of Thailand/Burma, "anybody who smokes more than three pipes of
    opium a day is an addict".

  19. Production in Afghanistan, which was the source of as much as two thirds to three quarters of the global supply of illicit opiates in the second half of the 1990s, has fluctuated dramatically since then. The year 2001 recorded a drastic drop in opium production in Afghanistan. This cutback was largely determined by the Taliban's edict against opium production, which was enacted in the summer of 2000 and effectively enforced for over a year in most of the country. The ban slashed the 2001 harvest to a mere 185 tons, the lowest level in living memory and less than 10 % of the level of the previous year.

  30. "ABOARD USS JOHN C. STENNIS (CNN) -- In one of the largest, most visible war games America has staged in the Persian Gulf since the start of the Iraq war, two U.S. aircraft carriers and seven other battleships cruised near the Iranian coast Wednesday.

    The admiral leading the fleet through the Straits of Hormuz, a narrow channel in international waters off Iran's coast and a major artery for global oil shipments, told CNN he hoped Iran did not get the wrong idea about America's intentions.

    "I hope they don't get a message -- a wrong message -- and we certainly don't want any miscalculation on anybody's part on what we are doing," Rear Adm. Kevin Quinn told CNN's Caroline Faraj on Tuesday.

    The navy's show of force is meant to "set the conditions for stability and security in the region and to keep the sea links of communications open for the free flow of commerce," Quinn said."

    snip

    "he admiral downplayed the idea that this operation was strategically planned to overshadow scheduled meetings next week in Baghdad between Iran and the United States regarding the Iraq war.

    "I don't know of any linkage at all between what we are doing (Wednesday), which is moving inside the Gulf to conduct some training operations, and that meeting," he said."


    U.S. warships in Gulf for training

    I thought there was some law preventing military folk from knowing telling things that weren't true? How could the Admiral say those things with a straight face? 'hmmmm we just happen to be sailing the biggest concentration of force since we attacked Iraq through the Straits of Hormuz just before our 'meeting' hmmmm, 'we just want a message of shipping stability to be heard, please don't get confused and take a potshot at us, please don't, we'd hate to have a pretext to bomb - stability, right? that's what we are looking for, nothing more, nothing less!'

  50. IAEA: Iran Continues to Defy U.N.

    May 23 10:22 AM US/Eastern
    By GEORGE JAHN
    Associated Press Writer


    VIENNA, Austria (AP) - Iran continues to defy U.N. Security Council demands to scrap its uranium enrichment program and has instead expanded its activities, the International Atomic Energy Agency said Wednesday in a finding that sets the stage for new council sanctions.
    The report from Mohamed ElBaradei, the head of the U.N.'s nuclear watchdog agency, also faulted Tehran for blocking IAEA efforts to probe suspicious nuclear activities, saying that meant it could not "provide assurances about ... the exclusively peaceful nature" of its atomic program.

    And, in new and worrying phrasing, it expressed concern about its "deteriorating" understanding of unexplored aspects of the program, despite four years of a probe sparked by revelations that Tehran had been clandestinely developing enrichment and other nuclear activities that could be used to make weapons for nearly two decades.

    The report, one of a series keeping the IAEA's 35-nation board and the Security Council up to date on the agency's monitoring efforts, was posted simultaneously on the IAEA internal Web site and handed over to the president of the Security Council for distribution among its members.

    While the reports finding that Iran was expanding enrichment instead of curtailing it was not surprising, it was important as a trigger for possible new U.N. sanctions, the third since the first were imposed Dec. 23.

    With the council's latest deadline for Iranian compliance ending Thursday, the report could set the stage for within days for consultations on new council penalties.

    A senior U.N. diplomat, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to publicly comment on the report, suggested that the shrinking hole left for inspections by Iran's rollback of previous monitoring agreements was potentially as worrying as its defiance on enrichment.

    The brevity of the four-page report indirectly reflected the lack of progress agency inspectors had made clearing up unresolved issues, among them; Iran's possession of diagrams showing how to form uranium into warhead form; unexplained uranium contamination at a research facility; information on high explosives experiments that could be linked to a nuclear program and the design of a missile re-entry vehicle.

  52. Bombs for bongs in Mejico too. Iraq and Afghanistan have their poppies. The Mexicans have their coca, pot and meth. It's not too hard to guess what the drug cartels' position is regarding a secure southern, US border.

    The drug trade is all-powerful in Mexico. Analysts estimate that cartels here make between $10 billion and $30 billion selling cocaine, heroin, marijuana and methamphetamine to the U.S. market, rivaling Mexico's revenues from oil exports and tourism. The gangs also make billions through robbery, kidnapping and extortion of businesses and would-be migrants.

    The Calderon administration insists the crackdown is working — the government has already detained more than 1,000 gunmen and burned millions of dollars in marijuana plants. Traffickers are being extradited to the U.S. more rapidly than ever before, and police recently made the world's biggest seizure of drug cash, $207 million neatly stacked inside a Mexico City mansion.

    U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency officials say it's too early to judge the crackdown's success. Seizures at the U.S. border indicate the flow of drugs north may actually be increasing — 20 percent more cocaine and 28 percent more marijuana has been seized in the past six months, compared with the same period a year earlier.

    Violence nationwide in Mexico seems to be increasing. The country's three leading newspapers estimate shootouts, decapitations and execution-style killings have claimed the lives of about 1,000 people this year, on track to soar past last year's count of 2,000. The government doesn't count drug-related killings, and a top federal police official, Public Safety Secretary Genaro Garcia Luna, has referred to the newspaper figures as the best numbers available.

  54. John Fund told an amazing tale:
    Compared to our population, the illegals crossing the borders problem was worse in 1950 than it is now:
    Ike sent one of his Generals from Europe down with orders to secure the border, and warn businesses that they would be outed and shamed if they cheated, and put out of business if they didn't stop.
    Then he started the Braccero program, with 500k a year coming up to do seasonal work.
    In a couple of years, illegals went from over half a million a year to 50,000!

    Then, when LBJ got elected, the Unions, and our hero Cezar Chavez got him to do away with the Bracero program.

    That, and 3 fixes from DC Ted and Co brings us to today.

  55. The railroad Bracero program ended promptly with the conclusion of World War II, in 1945, but the agricultural program under various forms survived until 1964, when the two governments ended it as a response to harsh criticisms and reports of human rights abuses. The program made a large contribution to U.S. agriculture, leading to the advent of mechanized farming. However the program, for the most part from a humanitarian standpoint, was deemed a complete and utter failure.[citation needed]

    The workers who participated in the Bracero Program have generated significant local and international struggles challenging the US government and Mexican government to identify and return deductions taken from their pay, from 1942 to 1948, for savings accounts which they were legally guaranteed to receive upon their return to Mexico at the conclusion of their contracts. Many, if not most, never received their savings. However, lawsuits presented in federal courts in California, in the late 1990s and early 2000s, highlighted the substandard conditions and documented the ultimate destiny of the savings accounts deductions, but the suit was thrown out because the Mexican banks in question never operated in the United States.

    The movie is German, and in German. There is a prejudice, perhaps understandable, against going to see a movie made in a foreign language. But good subtitle writers capture your mind and heart early in the engagement, and after ten minutes you are as if tuned into your native language. This is so of this German film, which depicts life in Berlin in 1984 under the famous Stasi, who were ten times as numerous as their brother Gestapo had been.

  71. Time for whites to make Ghandi proud: find the nearest ocean current and plop yourself face down, accepting the will of Gaia.

    No doubt she will punish many whites, but as the tides bring whites out to sea, the world will have the cuffs and ball-gags of white culture removed from their swarthy handsome bodies. But it will be a grand expression and a great statement against the politics of discrimination.

    History books and religious texts will have to rectify themselves with the Great Auto-Genocide, its implications being more powerful than we can imagine. So much honor and so much morality.

    But I doubt Americans will committ to such an entreprise. They much prefer to just splay their legs and pay someone to grind up the unborn inside them. Or poison their uterus so that it remain pleasantly barren.

  73. Let us, in our final hours, learn soccer and eat honey with a Muslim American.

    If you have a spring cleaning trash day in your town, be sure to vanquish all American cultural symbols from your house. If your a jew, out with Ariel Sharon mugs. If your a christian, be sure to put your cross on top of the american flag in the trash heap, the better for the downtrodden to see your conviction.

    And for good measure, remove all books, for we will begin a new intellectual age, colorful as a tri-border area, full of great tongues and greater texts, where Latin American and Arab celebrities bestride the globe in their radical splendor...

    Imagine the thrill of serving a Saudi, whose stuck with America even as it desecrated all the good-will given to it by the noble saudis. Small gestures such as filling up their gas tank and cleaning their homes would be powerful political statements.

  74. A brilliant Muslim recently reminded me that my culture has done nothing to better the world for centuries. Its only raped and pillaged and erected Ibiza's that so furrow a world of troubled Muslim brows.

    A furrowed and stern Caliphate isn't mad at us. Its just disapointed. Our women would have much to learn from these knights of a new century.

    Al-Magua would never have let the uncovered meat fall off the cliff, as her fate was either a saving grace to the head or a life of quiet contemplation on Arab superiority.

  77. Its the most honorable thing we could do to make the Greatest Generation proud, the Baby Boomers satisfied and the Generation X,y,z's driven to achieve.

    Rosie the Riveter toughed out the aches and pains of building bombs.

    Our women will get to prove themselves equal by toughing out Saudi penance: historically accurate but fair.

  78. The Saudis suffered so much from us, yet they've never withdrew their moisturized hands of friendship.

    And all we can do is mock them with our pathological phobias and old-world nationalisms.

    What an opportunity to labor for a Saudi so that they may know we are not all racists?

  81. Ask not what you can do for a jingoistic compatriot; Ask what you can do for a humble and oppressed Muslim-American:

    -Wash their cars
    -Denigrate your inferior culture in their company
    -Learn new imaginative ways of describing Jewish evils
    -Learn new imaginative ways of punishing the Jew
    -Donate a few years' wages to Islamic Charities

  85. It wouldn't be up to us to determine who is worthy of hanging, Doug. Only a just Saudi, doctors of the perfect doctrine of governance, Islam, may discern such powerful facts as to a son or daughters' need of hanging.

    Islamic Jurisprudence goes beyond just the yes and no of hanging and delves into differential methods and the powerful religious statement each one makes. Consider, if you will:

    -The Tree
    -The Crane
    -The Gallows in a public square full of seething lions, knights and innocent shepherds
    -The barrel of a machine gun welded to a pickup
    -Any elevated fixture in a picturesque Mosque courtyard (presuming its not been destroyed by Jewish vampires)

  90. Teach the Muslim and Mexican/American overlord the fine art of fly casting, Royal Coachman at the tip, an art unheard of in all of Arabia and Mejico. Become the chicken cleaner after the cockfights, or the dung cleaner after the camel races. Offer your wives and daughters at the alter of dishonor.

    Worship Al-lah, and praise mo, BPUH
