Bursting The Bubble

challenge and question everything!!!

 

Fort meade

it is amazing what you can know from simple conversations with people you don't even know their name, on second thought who cares whats their name, it is only a name right? just like how a human can on exist as a number, yes human are only numbers. someone i am sure might say how?? well in many ways and here is few, on your ID or drivers license there you are only composed of numbers and letters and symbols on their data base which is how they look you up. also social security is only a number that has no referrence to who you are in other. words just like an invoice number for you to be tracked. tracked by who? and for what reason? no one knows!! can your identity be earsed? sure it can, how i have no clue, you might want to higher an underground hacker for that or join the NSA lol. everything you do in your life is recorded somewhere, amagin the things you forget you did but someone somewhere still knows it about you. prefect examples medical records people with his access in the gov. can tell when the last time you had a tooth polled and which tooth number. or how about a list of all the text messages you sent in your life. things like that, i mean if you think privacy exists your on the wrong planet!!!!

now FORT MEADE some people might wounder where is the relationship, Fort meade is one of the largest areas where these things are recorded, over 100 acres of mainframe computers that record any ten 100 words, number using math alrgorethms infact they have a BIG DOME looking thing, and if you have not already guess it intercepts and translates any thing you can transsmite, from radio frequences to sattilite signals and no matter what langouage it is. i just think it is kind of unique to have around, and i hope it is for good reasons, and i hope it does not fall in to the hand of the worng people if it has not already, but anyway it is top secret not that many people can go in there, there alot of places like that not just fort meade, and not all are on earth, there are over 60 US spy sattelites that are just roaming around for intellegence. this brings me to a point, every one is excited about there new navigation system and onstar in your car, well congrandualtion it might be cool but where you travel with GPS you are being logged. and there is only one way to stop a radio frequancy alluminum foil so ifyour rap your car with alluminum foil it might help tehheeeee, i don't recommend for anyone to try that, but just making a point for those out there that believe privacy still exists and we should protected, i am sorry to say it is been invaded since you were born.

here is more information about it, and if you click here and look at pictures then at the bottom click on intellegnce it will show you document of what they can do. amazing stuff, but you be the judge if it is being put to good use or not, and one of the statements in there says "our mission is to serve and protect america from any threats and protect america's interests. meaning INTERESTS= all interests such as oil which may include going to war, middle east you get the hint so when you read analyze and question everything or read between the lines.

bling on the dead

Ok so my sister in law goes to her brothers funeral to find crapy people wanting to make money off of the dead body, in Arizona it is considered cheap to have a person cream maid.  So they get this personal with a sales personality and he says would you like a 10day roast or 5 days, 10 days are 700 dollars, and 5 days are 950 dollars, what the heck the man is freakin dead. Then they tell them that if you want to view him before to ID him it is going to cost another 150 dollar why? I have no freaken clue. Then they tell them with your package you get this box to put the cream in it (crapy box that does not even shut all the way) so to change that box that would be another 150 dollars. This is ridicules. It is a freaken dead people with no hearts type business and they make a load of money, the average tradition burial is between 5 to 8 thousand dollars minimum, in my country they get buried for free. They seriously have no respect for the dead they make business out of nothing, and they make good money. I should open me one of those obituary things, I would only have to by the oven or make my own fire, and the I can make my own caskets…bling bling..man that is just missed up.

organized religion

living hope, that is the name of the vancouver church who reserved the rose garden for their holiday service. at first they though they can only raise 30,000 they ended up raising a 100,000 dollar to reserve the WHOLE rose garden for their service including free interance and parking. they actually had 14000 people show up.  this might sound good, but i think it is rediciouls, you raise a 100,000 in a few weeks, damn then i better open me a church too. even the church's overall goal is to make money. i am sure i can find a few words to say to get people to put more money in the basket. a 100,000 dollar is a waste of money for such event. if it is really about giving back to the community why wasn't that money used to help the 1 in 5 children (12million a year) in the U.S. who live in poverty, or maybe use that money to open a free walkin clinic for people with out health care and can not afford one since corperate america keeps the prices so low right?.   here is a list blow of what this money could have gone for if there was good intentions other than making money. for a 100,000 we can higher a new and improved version of monica lewinsky to get bush impeached lol, then she can get on her knees and pray for everyone at the rose garden.

yea yea yea, you probebly think i am not religious, i actually am and i have faith, but to be religious doesn't mean i have to support corperate religions, that watching them brain washes people more than fox and alot faster too. yes corperate, they are considered a business entity and are studied in macro-economices.  before they open a church they actually have to apply for a business license, i wounder if they have two type of a licenses one with little kids and one with out. ha ha

In 2000, requests for emergency food assistance from families with children increased by 16% in American cities over the past year, the highest rate of increase since the recession of 1991 (U.S. Conference of Mayors, Hunger and Homelessness in America's Cities, December 2000).
• Nearly 1 in 5 children (more than 12 million) in the U.S. live in poverty (U.S. Census Bureau, Current Population Survey, October 2000 Update). The U.S. child poverty rate is higher than that of most other industrialized nations.

Famine

i found this article called Famine, it really made since, it might not relate to media but it sure has some truth about man kind not being so kind if that makes sense. here it is

Former U.S. president General Dwight D. Eisenhower put the true cost of war in simple terms when he said, "Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired is, in a sense, a theft from those who hunger & are not fed, those who are cold & are not clothed. (Dwight D. Eisenhower, April 16, 1953)

The first Gulf War alone cost the Allies a half billion dollars a day, or about $350,000 a minute.

    A fighter plane costs around $25 million each.

    A Tomahawk missile: about $1.3 million.

    An air-to-air missile: $800,000 each.

    Tank shells range from $2,000 to $36,000 each.

Starving ChildrenTranslated into more everyday expenses, for the price of this one missile, a school full of hungry children could eat lunch every day for 5 years.

Throughout the 1990's more than 100 million children have died from illness and starvation. Those 100 million deaths could have been prevented for the price of ten Stealth bombers, or what the world spends on its military in two days!

World Health GraphThe World Health Organization estimates that one-third of the world is well-fed, one-third is under-fed one-third is starving!

Since you've entered this site at least 200 people have died of starvation. Over 4 million will die this year.

However, the world can produce enough food to feed its expanding population. While some famines are caused by drought or other so-called natural disasters, children are more likely to be starving because of man's inhumanity to man--war, Dying Manembargoes, government corruption and economic oppression.

Such as the insurmountable debt many developing countries' owe to international creditors who enticed them to take out huge loans and are now holding the debtor nations in economic slavery, extracting exorbitant interest rates that ensure that the poor grow poorer and the rich lenders grow richer.

While these children die of hunger, rich Western nations burn millions of tons of food a year to keep prices high. Famines are largely a result of Man's corruption and greed and unwillingness to care for others.

Iraq

Today my teacher hit a nerve in his discussion in class; it is a good discussion topic. i agree with teacher but i also have my thoughts

for a long time now America has supported Israel especially when 1/3rd of US Foreign Aid goes to Israel (not including religious groups that donate and cooprate level support), and I think Israel behind all the trouble America is in. it was mention in class that bush referred to middle eastern countries as being a part of  "the axis of evil" countries like Syria, Iran, and Iraq.   Well let’s see here these evil countries are a threat to whom? America? The answer is no, but they sure surround Israel geographically so it is a threat to Israel, and the largest pro Israel lobby is in the United States. although I am not extremely religious and I don't know if this a coincidence or not, but in the old testament of the bible which is know as the Jewish Torah it is say that Israel should be from the Euphrates river in Iraq to the Mediterranean sea. and that river is in Iraq so does this mean it is happened because we started attacking Iraq and now it seems like Iran might be next then probably Syria that is if we make through Iran. So I thought that was ironic. That fundamentalist Baptist Jews in Israel actually believe it and the sad thing is that they run most of the Israeli government.

I personally think the United States attacked Iraq to protect Israel from Saddam, if we recall in 1990 Iraq was attack by USA because they attacked Saudi Arabia and also Launched scud missiles at Israel I believe it was 2 or 3 missiles I think one landed in the Med. Sea and one hit a train tracks in Haifa as I recall since I was in Israel at the time. now sadam's punishment was to paralyze his country economically for I believe the UN said 10 or 11 years it was called embargo again Iraq and they also prevented him from having a voice in OPEC, the Ironic thing about this is that right when his punishment was over and he is suppose to be allowed back in the economy and be freed WE attacked before he can enter the economy. The United States feared him getting money and creating weapons of mass destruction and launching them again Israel his only sworn enemy.

thanks to econoclast comment it brought up another point, and i have replied to it.  but also most religious groups such as the New York Jews who own most of wall street give a lot of support to isreael and push for the Israeli American allies connection, and here is a web article that proves most of this at least the lobby part in the United states http://www.fpif.org/papers/usisrael_body.html

the power of media

March 23 2007

this evening i was playing a online multiplayer game that people play from all over the world, it is called FEAR it stand for First Encounter Assult Rubicon, it is a fighting game and you are a solider who has a name, so since i am from Israel and my decedants are palestine of orgin i thought i would name myself PALESTINE. as i was playing for a few hours one of the players name "fag_from_israel" sent me a message saying "Palestine does not exist, and just for fun we keep a few around in Gaza that we kill like rats" so i said "i know, but how is the world letting you get away with that?" and he told me "simple we have the media in israel and america convinced the world that people like you and all arabs are terrorists, therefor the world view is on our side and can kills as many as we like" so i asked have you killed any? and he said "yes, i was in a high position in the israeli army". it was very hard for me to with hold my anger but i had to remind myself i can not blame this guy for the way he was raised and most people that are born there either arabic or israeli jews are taught to hate eachother.

the media is powerful when the people they are preaching to are ignorant or only the majority have a max of 9th grade level worth of brains. just like when the US media said Sharon (use to be priminster of israel) is a man of peace. most people believed that, but i hate to burst the bubble, but that is bullshit. if the media did its homework on researching who Ariel Sharon is and whats his past look like they would not have said that. http://www.commondreams.org/views02/0313-08.htm this is a really good article.

so i guess the moral of this story is that the media is used as a very very powerful tool to justifiy killings and whipe a whole nation like palestine that barely exists. i was really shocked by that person's remark, but unfortuantly he is right most of the world think arabs or palestinians are muslim, and that is not true because i am christian and my roots are arabic. it is one of those things we have a few bad students in the class so the whole class gets punished because of them.

this did not make the US news

just wondering when is our US government was planing to tell the people that as of yesterday the FOURTH US Battle ship has arrived near Iran? does that mean we are preparing for another war and to further destroy our own economy? i think this one will not be like iraq, because people in iraq didn't like sadam enough to defend him which is why they had a civil war in the early 90's, but in Iran the majority likes their leader so there for they will fight if things go to war.

but apparently the US media does not think that having four ships parked with in launching attack range of iran is news worthy they would rather keep anna nicole smith as a moralless role model of being a drugy, having ilegitmate children and when she dies people's greed kick in and now that baby has money over his head, making everyone the father. i just don't see Anna as being newsworthy, she is one person dead, but if we go to Iran there well be alot more dead. i would rather hear about what is going to happen with those four ships and until today i have not seen anything about this issue on US media only on Al-jazzera Sattelite channel in arabic. so if someone has heard about this it will be nice to share some information.

leaders?

i recently learned that our president gets a week vacation a month, as well as people like chaney, i think that is crap, because they should be trying to figure out a solution not out golfing and hunting, i mean hell is breaking loose and these people are on vacation, maybe bush and chaney should go to the front lines and try their vacation there, well maybe not chaney he might shoot our own solders since he shot his hunting buddy.

when he does go to iraq in the begining of the war, the media makes a headline like this "president bush made a surprise visit to iraq". now my question is who in the heck likes a surprise visit from their boss while they are working?

maybe we should change the way the office is runing maybe make it so every citizen gets a turn kind of like a joury duty that way this country will be run by the people.
