THE ENEMIES OF MY FRIENDS ARE MY ENEMIES….EVEN IF …..

Posted by criticned on April 18, 2009

During my recent visit to Middle East I followed three axes of events

Axes 1:

  1. George Mitchell visit to Middle East.
  2. Netanyahu announces rejection of the peace strategy based on the co-existence and creating of 2 states.

Axes 2:

  1. Morocco cuts it diplomatic ties with Iran
  2. Egypt accuses Hezbollah, Iran, Syria, Qatar and of course above all the Muslim Brotherhood, of planning attacks on Egypt

Axes 3:

  1. Iran convicts an American Spy in court.

Were all the above a welcoming party for George Mitchell …..

Egypt claims reminds me of those of the Bush administration in 2002 when they accused The Qaeda of Collaboration with Sadam Hussein to attack American interests; yet I recall that Cairo vexed such allegations based on the conflict in ideology between Hussein and the Qaeda. If that was the case then, how can the Muslim Brotherhood (Sunni) co-operate with Hezbollah (Shiite), and Qatar (Sunnis) cooperate with Iran (Shiites).

This is a very wide allegation and I believe that Egypt has lined up all America’s  opposition on one tray during the welcoming party of Senator Mitchell, for him to select; while withering the Muslim Brotherhood comfortably.

This media portion of the covert operation is also to hide the failure of the strategic choice of the Arabs in its negotiation with Israel. In addition, Hezbollah operative held by Cairo shall be part of the exchange deal to the recently American convicted spy in Iran….

I think Cairo is trying to score its first favor with Obama’s administration, as well as gaining leverage and staying in the game while Tehran-Washington are just commencing their first talks and recognitions.

Africa Re-colonised….

Posted by criticned on April 9, 2009

Along the years of my traveling in Africa I was always observant to demographic variations among air travelers and passengers, from empty seats, to Franco-phone African talking about “L’Afrique”, to the Europeans who think they shall get the elephants to mount them, to Americans who just came out of World Bank pockets as the solution, to the missionaries talking about the despair, yet collect more donations from the needy, to the Chinese who do not speak anyone except the Chinese!!!!. The problem this time, they were almost 35% of the passengers on the flight.

I always judge people with their belief system, and none I awe more than those who adopt the following proverbs saying:

  • If you are patient enough you shall see the corps of your enemy floating down the river.
  • Don’t give me a fish, but teach me how to fish a fish.

I believe that the above two proverbs are the inherent rules in the Chinese belief system and the main strategies that they use to conquer the world. China has adopted same strategy against USA and now it is watching the American Corp struggling to survive down the financial turbulent and turbid river.

The Chinese danger is that they are looking at “the bottom of the pyramid”, and they are uprooting the grass-roots’ opportunities in Africa. Those who have some small trading jobs here and there…..I am not saying the Chinese are wrong in their strategy to invade and colonies Africa peacefully. It the solution to their problems, where a low productivity, corruption coupled with low population density. It seems African to be the solution to all Chinese current social and demographic problems; but it seems that the African countries their and governments have lost contact with and vision of their grass-roots and they cannot hear anymore their hunger roaring

The reader may agree that those governments need the blessing of the new up coming master, but the problem that this master is not coming with new technology or development techniques, the Chinese are coming with ethnic replacement… they are creating closed communities competing with small traders, and they are financially supported by the their government, through subsidiaries schemes and incentives,

How can the poor and the helpless grass-root Africans compete with that?….at least when they used to import from china and sell in their mother land and continent, they had a job then, but now with the demographic replacement of the Africans by Chinese is dangerous, especially when they are up-rooting the citizens from their jobs, then they will create a monopoly of production, supply and afterwards ….politics

Wake up Africa and “don’t inhale”…

The Vehicle Roles and the Dogs Bark

Posted by criticned on April 9, 2009

I have been trying to visualise the political landscape in South Africa without the presence of ANC, and I came up with a shocking discovery….The other parties (DA and COPE) would have nothing to provide that country, as there will be nothing to moan about, instead of working.

The South African Parties (COPE AND DA) are wasting huge amount of money and efforts on the war on ANC and Zuma rather than providing any tangible or trustworthy competition and alternatives….they are politically bankrupt to the extent they can only launch hatred campaigns.

I was observing the South African media for past 2 days with astoundment to the level of legal and constitutional ignorance of most of the presenters and most of their guests, where everyone says “but Zuma should answer to those charges”….since when the onus is on the accused to prove, it is the prosecutor that has to prove beyond reasonable doubt (in criminal cases) and by balance of possibilities in civil case…..I repeat; if it is criminal charges it has to be proven beyond reasonable doubt….where is this in the Zuma case?….more so the prosecutor is saying I cannot win because I cannot achieve conviction with ” beyond reasonable doubt”; yet everyone goes to Zuma to ask him to still defend himself…..

Also I support the fact that the local media is biased against Zuma, any blind person can see it where some channels are just pouring hatred…..Please note that it is an election year and Parties have to draw up better plans to convince the voters they are the best and can do for the masses better than Zuma…..

When a party or person is politically bankrupt, it or he can do nothing except barking at successful passers….

Wake up COPE and DA, I am sure you can do better than that;l otherwise appear busy….

WILL THE ARABS READ THIS???

Posted by criticned on March 28, 2009

In 1969 when the Mr. Dayan, the ex-Chief of Staff and Defense Minister of the Israeli “Defense” Forces was interviewed regarding their combat strategy against the Arabs, including “Egypt” then, he went onto the details of the strategy specifying the axes of the envisaged attack, to the extent that the interviewer asked him out of concern: “wouldn’t the Arabs create a counter-strategy after reading about your strategy details here” then the General answered him simply “Arabs do not read”!!!!

After 40 years I was faced with the same question while going through the March version of the French DSI (Défense & Sécurité Internationale Magazine) No. 46 when I saw that not only the Arabs do not read, but apparently they also do not think.

That issue of DSI reported that the Emirate Army is on full modernization to face that of the Iranian!!!!!…..I could not hold myself laughing out this black comedy that is being played in the Gulf….to readers who does not know the nature of people in that area, the typical national Arab is a reflection of his economy, where they spend most their useful time in front of the TV either playing, Wii, Atari or virtual games.

They can not and would not fight a war of any kind, A proof of which the Gulf War I, when most the Kuwaiti flee their country instead of enrolling to fight. Historically and since 1950s the only war that the gulf area got involved is possibly was the unification of the SAUDI ARABIA, and it was fought over camels and horses and won by different breed of men that are not available in that area now….

Going back to that ugly analysis of the modern war history in that area and also the sales initiative of Mr. Sarkosi relying on Mr Bush Jr. recklessness (Please my check previous article) the Arabs went and bought toys that they do not even have the manpower to use nor even the ability to use except in simulations….

The Emirates useful male Population is 2,768,030* including immigrants between the age of 15 to 65, assuming a normal distribution (statistically, assume that 40 percent of which is between 20 and 30 years of age, and assuming population of immigrants is about 35% we shall get that total population that may defend Emirate is about 720,000 most of which are rich and represent a typical strain of cautious investor, where they prefer to buy the service than DIY (Do It Yourself). This concludes that about 400,000 people can defend Emirates at a best case scenario. Now looking at Iran, Iran has useful male population of 24,501,544* almost 10 times that of Emirates, eager and more experienced in war since 1980 till its involvement in Lebanon War III 2006 at least by strategy and systems.

Secondly, in the Gulf War II in IRAQ it is demonstrated that most important piece of equipment is the people or soldier’s belief, numbers people ready to defend and the courage factor of the war that no machine can break, same rule application is demonstrated currently in Afghanistan which USA tried recently to negotiate for alliance and when failed Mr. Obama promised them yesterday the wrath and hell.

Thirdly, when did Iran become a threat to the Arabs?, it has never attacked the Arabs first and  secondly, they are of the same religion.  During the Iraqi war, motivated by Mr. Chiney, Mr. Rumsfiled and of course the Father of all contemporary Gulf wars, the famous Mr. George H. W. Bush; to drain the Iran’s and Iraq’s resources and test new strain of chemical weapons, among other targets; it was Iraq that started.

Unless the Arabs are buying toys, stocking them for others to use, while they continue watching the war on TV, loosing their petro-money and resources on toys and not development; they are a race destined  to perish out of ignorance.

Funny enough when reviewing the Economist of March 21st to 27th 2009, the lead article is about how China sees the world, demonstrated by an elegant art work of the world’s map from China’s perspective and ….. to prove my point, neither the Arabs nor their peninsula are on that map!!!!.

NATION’S SELF –REDEMPTION

Posted by criticned on March 8, 2009

The atrocities of the Bush administration are enormous and the full extent of damage shall not be revealed immediately but for years to come…. Read Further

We cannot also accuse the Bush administration alone and absolve the American people including the current administration as Bush & Co. won election with the 50% plus one in a “democratic” process…..also we cannot absolve the American institutions including the media from diminishing and tarnishing the American image while they were following the “leader”….

We also cannot claim that USA’s liability ended when they elected angel’s face Mr. Obama, while forgetting what the world underwent and still suffering because of 50% of the American people….the Germans’ had and still are paying for the atrocities of Hitler, are the Americans better race than the Germans ?…..the Germans went into self-cleansing and to date they have no regular army, so why can’t the same happen to USA….When massive power is left uncontrolled in hands of a group of people, while diminishing or eliminating the possibility of punishment for miss-use; we are encouraging similar actions in the future then elect afterwards another angel face to clean up the mess….

I believe, like a lot of people, that we are not living in a jungle and that American War Machine has to be dissolved to avoid any future mishaps ……Alternatively bring all the members of the Bush administration to the International Criminal Court for criminal war fair and actions committed in the past 8 years…..but ultimately someone has to pay….otherwise why did the world picked to the German’s Hitler and forgot the American one….

THESE ARE THE HEADLINES…

Posted by criticned on January 11, 2009

Head-lines

Funny enough that the people in Arab’s peninsula and in the North Africa, and Palestine consider the Israeli / Palestinian conflict to be the core issue, while the world see it as a bullet among several headlines….the destiny of 300 million depressed and unproductive people is summerised in one bullet in a headline only..……they are equivalent in importance to “finding the mother of abounded baby” while in one missile strike 40 child and baby were and are killed….

This says that the media is not interested in showing the real gravity of massacre and the gravity of brutality the Israeli criminal war machine is doing…thus I believe that the mainstream media is culprit to the criminal apartheid regime of Israel….

I hope the Arabs can see how others are  observing them through the eyes of the  media…..

Some of the losers are still talking about peace and strategic choices while others are calling for truce while the blood, the despair, the destiny and  the future of the  people in Middle East is summarized in one headline….

Have fun Mr. Abbas, as well as your supporters…you are a pure sycophants…..

Just one thing I wanted to say….one of the MACs of  the fast food series has donated yesterday income to the Israeli War machine what did the 300m Arab people donate except depression and passiveness………..

A TALE OF TWO LADIES

Posted by criticned on December 29, 2008

Mrs. Bush and Ms Rice are trying to convince the world and the US how brilliant and advanced is Mr. Bush Jr. ….to the extent that we cannot understand his actions now but in generations to come and people of USA shall be so grateful…..what a paradox!!!!!

The Enigma Mr. Bush Jr. is leaving the white house and everything is in shambles and yet we shall not understand now, but in years to come…

Just sitting and throwing my shoulders to the back and think of the world, I cannot disagree on more in life than those statements of the Mrs(s)……

If the actions of Mr. Bush Jr. are so brilliant why does he need people to defend…acts and successes talk for themselves… To make it short and sweet just READ THIS—>….

THE LAST KICKS OF A DYING MAD HORSE

Posted by criticned on December 29, 2008

We cannot blame a criminal who continues defending his robbery, even through the use of excessive force, but we have to blame the silent forces that are operative in the area and accuse it of collaboration.

The story of Israel in Palestine is the story of a thief that used to cry and kick and plead to conceal his robbery, his criminal record and stolen goods.

One have to praise here the criminal abilities for Israel and its governors. They were able to create a myth about Israel as a state, mystifying the history and the memories of several nations. They played the numbers games when they manipulated the emotions of the ignorant, illiterates, Christian fanatics and the even the POPE (excuse me your imminence), to absolve them from each responsibility including the crucifixion of Jesus Christ.

They changed numbers regularly of the Holocaust victims, fixing it at 6millions, when there was no numbers of Jews then to support the myth. They condemned and used again the ignorant and the illiterate administrations of Bush & Co. to pass bills against whoever even doubt the holocaust and its workings….so a person can doubt the presence of God and get away with it , but not the Holocaust,…..funny isn’t it…..

From the past you cannot disrespect the workings and strategies of Israelis in spite that one despises the state, its apartheid regime and its workings.

In the last days and the Gaza attacks represents a plan that has to be concluded before Uncle Bush (the failure) leaves the office……Israelis are trying to flatten resistance in favor of FATEH movement before January 20th 2009, the date when Obama moves in, as the relations between the parties of the conflict (with preference to Hamas) cannot be left to the speculation, under Obama’s administration ….it has to be concluded and it is being done….

FATEH & HAMMAS are the contemporary “The Brothers Karamazov” and I cannot absolve Mr. Abbas as well as all the world of responsibility of the Gaza Massacre 08.

I think the condemnations of Mr Abbas, the Arabs and all the countries are useless, they are all co-conspirators since they know that this was deemed to happen as Obama’s administration is still undetermined and expected to remain indecisive regarding the conflict and the Palestinians rights. While the Security Council in condemning along with the Arabs….I think both parties ought to do better especially while they are celebrating the new years eve…..

The use of excessive force by the Israelis shows that they are working under a tight schedule…especially when looking at the military performance of the Israelis as demonstrated in the recent Lebanon War, Israel has a war endurance capabilities of one month and cannot stay in war more that (due to socio-economic factors) …funny enough they have planned a 3 weeks ( give and take) massacre to end on the day of Obama’s inauguration…please do the calculation and prove me wrong….this period where Bush’s administration can claim impotency to act and Obama’s do not yet exist.

On the relation between Egypt and Gaza and the closure of the border crossings, it is clear the Mr. Nassr-Allah when he invited Egyptians to demonstrate and go to the streets to force its government to open the border was only trying to get his “pound of flesh” and massaging the emotions of several followers. He knows that Egypt cannot allow Israel to push Palestinians from one end into Egypt thus creating a Palestinians’ settlement in the Sinai peninsula….this has been the Israelis plan and Egypt is quite aware of it and shall never allow it, even if it cost Egypt the relation and blood of the divided Palestinians.

Unless the world and the Security Council and the Palestinians sycophants that are party to the conflict rise to their responsibility a the blood of civilians, children and women shall continue to flow.

What an ugly era in the world’s history and in the wondering mind of

TO BLOG OR NOT TO BLOG THAT IS THE QUESTION….

Posted by criticned on December 17, 2008

I went through my articles on the blog….I have to admit the blogging has enabled a huge community to be able to express they their hobby and pronounce their opinions. I am thankful to the blogging technology for that and thankful for the people whom I criticized for their ability to accept criticism.

It is one thing to be a critic and another to be engaged in the action. Criticism sometimes is a leisure that the criticized does not have …..He is too busy doing what he is doing, whether right or wrong….

Yet we go on bragging about his actions and doings, while he is never concerned or even read….

I always think what is it that we need to do to make blogging more engaging and effective in global opinions…the problem is the majority of the internet population are using the net in matters that either are directed by main stream media, or emails or for nefarious activities that mainly consume time.

Also the dilution of the blogging sites on the net does not allow the focusing or the effectiveness of the blog voice. We have also to remember the main stream media is more powerful especially outside the States than inside it.

This also bring on the discussion the question: is the net advocating freedom of speech?…..is it part of the globalization?….most of the autocratic governments have adjusted its operations and laws to inflict oppression on the net users, in a similar manner like that they apply in their every day life. Some of the countries follow daily activities on the net to uproot any demonstrations, gatherings, oppositions opinions….etc….they have adjusted so well and thanks to uncle Bush who was the first one that used security as a reason to invade privacy and freedom of speech…..most of the 3rd world leaders used his excuses so brilliantly to the extent that half of the bloggers and e-activists are in jails or held pending judgment. I shall abstain from giving examples that most of the readers know otherwise I shall become and e-parrot.

Nationalization road map…

Posted by criticned on October 18, 2008

Usually when the World Bank officials visit any developing country the first thing they request is elimination of any subsidizing scheme to any good, starting for bread ending with fuel. They claim that all activities should be privatized even sun-rays (if they can)….I wonder whether they shall say it again ….the Capitalism has collapsed and announced dead  the minutes the bail out scheme was approved. It is a literally nationalization scheme of the private sector.

It is not first time that the private investment has to be taken over by the governments; for example it happened before in 17th century during the railway investment fever.  A lot pyramid schemes and the private investments proved fraud and lot of small investors lost huge money to fraud schemes, thus publicized.

When the Communism failed, the west went into a hot rampage pushing all the developing countries to abide by the rules of capitalism and sell all their national assets to private sector and a new wave of privatization fever….that was mainly in the early nineties and specific after the collapse of then USSR….what shall be the case now, shall officials of the world bank run around again with a new theory of nationalizing assets is the way forward to revive economy….I believe in this crisis the world bank as the capitalism castle has lost face and cannot be redeemed…I wonder what his officials shall say to all those countries that they once told that the only way to revive economy is privatization???!!
