    The Uses of Disorder (Jim Kunstler)

    All good cooks know that if you stir and heat the pot too quickly it can become superheated and erupt, rendering the contents unusable and likely injuring the cook.
    The cook of our present world seem to be either ignoring this fact or a masochist or both.
    Our present cook has not seen the want ad for a new cook. Hopefully the new one will be more fair and pragmatic and better understand the basic rules of cooking.

    Ah, yes,,,and too many cooks will invariably spoil the broth.

    Aside from that, how ’bout that action in Brussels? Obviously, the borders just ain’t open wide enough yet? And to think, the blame is put on the government by it’s own lapdog media for being “unprepared?”

    Guess they haven’t cracked down on their own citizens hard enough yet? But they will now. Freedom is for foreign refugees, not warmongering-government-enabling EU citizens.

    About the only thing to sink one’s teeth into now is that the slope is going to get steeper and slicker. The political solutions that have brought all this about, will only throw it all from the frying pan directly into the fire now.

    Brace!

    Well, this is the guy who went ahead and helped destroy Libya. He had been given a heap of money by Gaddafi to help him win the French presidential election and that was his way of expressing his thanks.

    Funny how these people who destroy countries are always sure that their actions do not have consequences.

    Nassim – to this day I am still incensed by what happened to Gaddafi. I hope that every single one of the people who took him down is held responsible and spends the rest of their lives in jail. Assad has been lucky so far; hopefully he survives.

    Dmitry Orlov has a good piece today, “The Colour Counterrevolution Cometh”:

    “You see, in the US hatred of the Washington régime runs very deep, with millions of people sick and tired of being swindled by various hated bureaucracies…If all goes well then, starting next year, tens of thousands of Washington operatives, along with their friends in various politically connected industries, such as banking, defense, medicine and education, will evacuate to a variety of nonextradition countries (which will no doubt respond by raising the prices of their passports) while thousands more will begin their lengthy sojourns at federal penitentiaries. And thus the crisis will be defused.

    And if it doesn’t go well, then we’ll probably be looking at a “deteriorating security environment.” How far it will deteriorate is anyone’s guess, but if you are one of the Washington régime’s stooges then you may want to get yourself a second passport before the prices go up and get out ahead of time.”

    Bernie Sanders has gone along with every single massacre.

    Does Bernie Sanders’ Imperialism Matter?

    Why Bernie Sanders is a Dead End

    The Myth of Bernie Sanders

    And Clinton? Get ready for much more war should she ever get elected! A very dangerous woman who is married to one of the worst sell-out presidents ever! Both have enriched the establishment and could care less about the average person.

    American Exceptionalism and the Election Made in Hell (Or Why I’d Vote for Trump Over Hillary)

    Trump is a loose cannon and, as Trivium said, might be a plant (maybe the establishment sensed the American people were mad and gave them an outlet – Trump), but he’s all the American people have got.

    “Hillary Clinton on her best of days is still a serious menace to both the earth’s continuance as a habitable planet, and to peace. A committed neoliberal who has pursued, both as a senator and as a secretary of state, a policy of economic and military destabilization of sovereign governments, with no regard for the aftermath of such criminality (think Iraq, Afghanistan, Somalia, Venezuela, Libya, Ukraine and Honduras, but especially Libya, Ukraine and Honduras, which were very much her doing in her last public position as secretary of state), Clinton has made it clear even on the campaign trail that she considers Russia to be an enemy. If elected, she has also made it clear she’ll continue a dangerous policy of brinksmanship, pushing for NATO membership of more nations bordering Russia, and moving offensive weapons and troops there too. The stated neoliberal (and neoconservative) goal is to ultimately destabilize Russia so that a) President Putin is removed, and b) so that Russia further fragments into smaller nation-states. This is a mad recipe for World War III, and Clinton, as a new president out to prove her toughness, is a good bet to push things to a point where that war could become a reality.”

    Why I Won’t be Voting for Hillary in November

    Hillary is flip-flopping on trade:

    “Clinton now says that she opposes the TPP, the Trans Pacific Partnership, having praised it as “the gold standard” in trade agreements not long ago. The official reason for the flip-flop: she read the fine print. The real reason: Sanders could kill her on this, and so will Trump, if comes down to a Trump v. Clinton race in November. What would she do if she became President? The answer is obvious: “renegotiate” this or that fine point and flip-flop again.

    She could hardly do otherwise: trade deals like NAFTA, the North American Free Trade Agreement, and the TPP are the lynchpins holding the neoliberal world order together. Without them, well-paying jobs and the unions that make them possible could not be so easily made to disappear, and the handful of miscreants at the top of the income and wealth hierarchy would not be able to enrich themselves quite so egregiously at everyone else’s expense.”

    Could Hillary Clinton be Worse Than Trump?

    These trade deals will be rammed through unless the people get up in arms.
