How To Destroy America
"Government is not a solution to our problem[s],
government is the problem." -- Ronald Reagan


It's Time to Worry about Global COOLING

"...an utterly corrupt new religion called environmentalism..."
If the history of this planet's climate over millions of years is any guide, we are about to enter a new ice age.

CAIR spokesman Ibrahim Hooper indicated in a 1993 interview with the Minneapolis Star Tribune that he wants to see the United States become a Muslim country.


Can't Even Pay Them to Cover Genocide
By R J Rummel (08/28/05)


I've posted a number of blogs on the genocide/democide in Sudan, such as "6,000 More Darfurians to be MURDERED in July", and so far the response by the democracies and the UN has been tepid. This is because the major media has not been engaged in informing the public of this horror. Were they to show daily the dead and dying children, the starving, the destroyed villages, the refugee camps, the dying in makeshift hospitals, and so on, for photo after photo, as they are doing for the terrorist attacks in Iraq, then something would be done by pubic demand.

This is from "ThinkProgress.org:

Apparently you can’t even pay TV networks to cover genocide: American Progress created a television advertisement for beawitness.org , our netroots campaign that calls out the television news media for their deplorable coverage of the genocide in Darfur. Over the last few days, three Washington DC television affiliates, NBC-4, CBS-9, and ABC-7, informed us that they refuse to air the ad.
Since the major networks seem to have their hands full covering stories like Natalee Holloway and the Runaway Bride, does what the media won’t — puts the spotlight on Darfur, and suggests that genocide warrants increased coverage.
ABC News broadcast just 18 minutes of Darfur coverage in its nightly newscasts in all of 2004 — “and that turns out to be a credit to Peter Jennings,” as Nicholas Kristof pointed out. NBC News featured 5 minutes, and CBS only had three, “about a minute of coverage for every 100,000 deaths.” Now they won’t allow us to pay for 30 seconds to urge better coverage of the genocide.
Send a message to NBC, CBS and ABC demanding that the stations air the ad.
Here are the official responses from the networks:
NBC: WRC-TV has chosen not to accept the submitted commercial advertisement, “Genocide is News,” sponsored by BeAWitness.org.
CBS: Management did not approve the airing of the “Beawitness.org” spot.
ABC: I just got word that WJLA-TV will not be able to accept the creative for Be a Witness.org. Please let me know if there may be any alternative creative that we may run.

In a democracy, there is a simple equation: daily photos of dead, dying, and starving children ---> public outrage and demands for intervention ---> outraged politicians ---> intervention to stop the killing. It was the photos of starving Somalian children that provoked the American intervention in Somalia, and although the death of American Rangers and our hasty withdrawal gave the intervention a bad name, It SAVED ABOUT A MILLION SOMALIANS FROM STARVATION. But, you never hear about that.


Link of Note
" On the website "Darfur: A Genocide We Can Stop"

The website says:
The Sudanese Government, using Arab "Janjaweed" militias, its air force, and organized starvation, is systematically killing the black Sudanese of Darfur.

The rulers of Sudan are murderous criminals that should be brought before the International Court of Justice for trail -- and if there is justice in this world, execution.

"Mexico, Canada partnership underway with no authorization from Congress"

The United States Is Being Overthrown By Our Politicians - "A silent but all-reaching coup is taking place within the United States. This coup is not being directed by bomb-laden Muslim terrorists, nor will it ever be covered by the mainstream media. The seditious act is being carried out by our very own elected officials, with President Bush leading the insurrection."
"The FDA has conveniently used the excuse of looking out for consumer safety to increase their perverse regulatory power, undermine free speech, disrupt commerce, and generally get in the way of helping people improve their health. The "half-truth" of the safety issue is used as a ploy to reduce the rights of Americans, one freedom at a time. Once again, the FDA is seeking more police power to intimidate supplement companies. This is one step in an overall FDA master plan to eliminate therapeutic nutritional supplements from the free market. Those who lose are the American public." The FDA - A Wolf in Sheep's Clothing
