- ITEM- Newsweek Editor: Iran Wants Nukes… But Only for Civilian Uses
- WISHFUL THINKING, combined with lies. Iran has itself said it’s making nuke material, to make bombs. Making mere power-plants would involve– say– thorium-based reactor technology, which does not lend itself easily to those handy-dandy byproducts needed for weapons-grade stuff. Of course, in the past, Iran blithely asserted their main heavy water production plant was making– wait for it– healthy bottled water for all those thirsty Iranians. Any lie in a storm to anything-but-reality Western media and politicians. ~

~ TALES THAT STILL WAIT TO BE TOLD? To be fair, I’ve only seen a trailer of the Montreal Massacre movie ‘Polytechnique‘– but just in seeing the face of the bad guy, ‘Marc Lepine’, my ‘politically correct fairy-tales’ hackles went up. The actor has no beard.. looks like a skinny Edward Norton white guy.. not half-Algerian. More white-males are evil schtick?
Kathy Shaidle Shirts
Pre-Dead Minions:
Two new shirts today.. mo’ blogging tomorrow.
Somebody at Salon.com said of herself that “Kathy Shaidle is not a particularly nice person.” Amen: she’s the queen of insensitivity training, the Canucki bloggess of political incorrectness.
If you want different colours or shirt-types, you can use the Zazzle-tools to customize to your liking. I know the price is a few bucks more than CafePress, but unless you buy their big membership thing, you’re limited in what you can post.
Funds from this one go to support Kathy’s legal expenses.

- ITEM– America’s Richest Givers Hold Secret Meeting– Oprah, Gates, Buffett Gather in NY to Compare Notes About Charity, Economy; pictures.. “Other invitees included Eli and Edythe Broad, whose current fortune is estimated at $5.2B by Forbes Magazine; John Morgridge, former CEO of Cisco and his wife Tashia; Peter Peterson, senior chairman of the Blackstone Group; Julian Robertson, founder of Tiger Management Corp.; and Patty Stonesifer, former CEO of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.”
~ BECAUSE I BELIEVE IN the essential bentness of human nature (and have read my history) I have no problem with the idea that various people have used conspiracies– good, bad, and indifferent) to rule various aspects of their worlds, times, and interests. That’s how criminals roll; and traitors; some prospective rulers; spies; 5th columnists; various Roman rulers; Byzantine Emperors.. heck, lots of folks since ever. Julius Caesar was a very old hand at conspiracy, as was his adopted son Octavian (later Augustus Caesar).
Conspiricism
As far as the past century, no doubt the centres of power– corporations, internationalists, various stripes of Utopians and suchlike, have conspired. As far as existence of the TriLateral Commission, Bilderbergers, the Council on Foreign Relations, and whomever else, why not? Much of history is the cleaned up version we’re given to believe.
OK, but how’s about a big meeting of really serious big folks out in the open?
