Colonialisme 2.0 ou comment se faire fourrer au Québec à l’ère de la mondialisation

Franchement, rien ne change dans cette Belle Province. Nous avons eu quelques bons moments dans les années soixante et soixante-dix, poussés par le désir d’avancer,  d’évoluer et de moderniser la province. Mais plus maintenant. Les politiciens sont devenus des petits affairistes qui chient dans leur froc aussitôt que surgit la moindre controverse, intrigue ou le moindre problème. Pas étonnant que le crime organisé les mène par le bout du nez. Ils n’ont même plus la force de s’affirmer, d’énoncer des règles et de poser des conditions. Toujours est-il que dans cette atmosphère morbide, démoralisante et lourde, nous voyons poindre une nouvelle forme de colonialisme. Non pas celle qui a fait en sorte que nous soyons à genoux devant l’empire britannique ou les compagnies canadiennes-anglaises mais plutôt la version 2.0, celle où l’on est à genoux plutôt devant les multinationales étrangères, comme si on avait le fusil sur la tempe pour négocier. Pas étonnant que Jean Charest et les Libéraux soient des fédéralistes. De la manière dont ils négocient avec les compagnies, ils ne pourraient même pas être souverains de la cour arrière d’une ferme. Le Plan Nord va permettre à des multinationales qui se foutent des Québécois de venir siphonner notre sous-sol, pour partir ensuite en coup de vent après avoir saccagé l’environnement. On n’obtiendra rien qui vaille en retour de nos ressources. Niet.

La Souveraineté commence par l’affirmation. Si on ne peut même pas s’affirmer dans les petites choses, comment pourra-t-on s’affirmer dans les grandes? Le Gouvernement du Québec s’apprête à construire des routes et des infrastructures pour permettre aux compagnies étrangères de vider le sous-sol québécois. Les redevances actuelles sont minables et de même pour le partage des profits, quand la formule existe. Une attitude souveraine suggère plutôt d’exiger des redevances convenables, ainsi qu’une part importante des profits. Les compagnies devraient construire à leurs frais les infrastructures dont elles ont besoin. Jacques Parizeau a suggéré un système où l’on échange de l’investissement de l’état dans les infrastructures contre des actions. Je n’ai pas de problème. Ce qui compte, c’est que nous changions d’attitude. Quand on s’assoit avec les compagnies, on doit leur montrer que nous contrôlons l’agenda et non le contraire. On se présente et on dit: « Voici les conditions à partir desquelles nous serions prêts à accepter que vous veniez sur notre territoire exploiter nos ressources. Nous sommes en train d’explorer différentes possibilités. Le cas échéant, si nous ne trouvons aucun partenaire adéquat, nos procéderons nous-mêmes à l’exploitation des ressources en créant des sociétés d’état. Prenez le temps d’étudier l’offre et revenez-nous avec votre décision ». Vous voyez? Ce n’est pas si dur. Cela prend seulement un peu de leadership… Continuer la lecture →

Connecting the dots on Al-Qaeda: Afrikakorps 2 and the Palestinian liberation movement distraction

Publié le par
Répondre

During these last re-broadcasts, Dave Emory explores the Al-Qaeda movement as a re-formation of Afrikakorps, the expeditionary force of Nazi Germany in North Africa, especially present in Libya, Egypt and Tunisia. The mission of Al-Qaeda, examined under that spotlight, is to incense Arab and Muslim populations against Israel, the British and the United States, in an effort to secure the oil reserves of the Middle East for the Underground Reich, the same way Afrikakorps was trying to secure them for the Third Reich. FTR #333 explores the character of Ali Hassan Salameh, apparently a CIA asset and operative of the Black September organization that helped to engineer the Munich massacre of 1972. His father, Hassan Salameh, played an important role in the Palestinian issue. A key aide to Haj Amin al-Husseini, the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, Hassan Salameh planned to poison the wells of Tel-Aviv. The goal was to create an uprising against the British to divert Allied troops. Fortunately, the operation failed. In this context, the Palestinian/Israeli question must be seen as a distraction to take the attention away from the real deal: oil. As Emory points out quite justly, even if Israel wouldn’t exist as a country, Arabs would still experience misery. Their suffering and poorness have another cause. There is something in their societies, surely due to their religion but also to the civilization itself from which they are the product, that blocks them from evolving and becoming prosper. Only the transformation of their minds and hearts will allow them to free themselves for this misery.

P.S.: Don’t you think that what we have witnessed during the « Arab Spring » resembles a lot to the events of WWII with Afrikakorps? Afrikakorps was present in Libya, Egypt and Tunisia…and curiously, that’s exactly where uprisings occured last winter. And the Palestinian/Israeli question used as a distraction while the real deal is oil… It seems to me that we are still where we were during WWII in these matters. If you replace the British by the United States, the situation in the Middle East is almost identical as to what it was during the 20’s, 30’s and 40’s.

Suspicious stock market manipulations before both the assassination of President Kennedy and 9/11

This For The Record show explores some of the stock market manipulations that occured only a few days before 9/11, around United Air Lines and American Air Lines, among other companies. Activity around United Air Lines was 25 times higher than usual according to Options Clearinghouse Corporation. There was also suspicious activity in the re-insurance business, and around oil and gold options. Short selling was particularly active. The broadcast compares and analyses stock market manipulations that occured just before both the assassination of President Kennedy and 9/11. Dave Emory speculates that the same group could have been at the origin of these two coups, namely the Bormann Group or Underground Reich. To review and analyse stock market and other types of manipulations that occured just before the assassination of Kennedy, Dave Emory utilizes books written by Lincoln Lawrence, Were We Controlled? and The Man Who Knew Too Much, by Dick Russell.

Don Debar on Talktainment Radio presents the real situation on the ground in Libya

Publié le par
Répondre

This interview with New York journalist Don Debar offers a much more credible and more believable assessment of the situation in Libya than what we have been given by our local news providers. Debar was in Libya recently and the account that he presents here make a lot of sense. To begin with, Debar de-mythologizes the country that we call Libya by sketching certain of its social and political dimensions unknown to the vast majority of the western public. Libya, up until NATO’s military campaign against it, have had a social safety net that would make people jalous even in a country like Canada. In effect, Libyans have had free education, free healthcare. Every Libyan has had the right to own his/her house and there has been no mortgage. And there has been also a certain redistribution of oil revenues, something NATO and the « Allies » never said to us, the population. Libya, up to this military intervention, has had the highest standard of living in Africa. According to Debar, a 1000 miles of non-polluted beaches could be enjoyed by any citizens.

« Revolutionaries » of this war originate from Qatar. To this day, certain areas of Libya haven’t seen any rebels. Among other elements of this interview, we note that: Nelson Mandela credited Qaddafi for the help he provided to end Apartheid; Qaddafi had the project of creating the United States of Africa, which would have integrated its economy with the use of a currency based on gold; Qaddafi paid for a telecommunication system made in Africa. These elements seem to have entered into conflict with a project of NATO called Africom that would probably resemble a form of neo-colonialism. Lode Vanoost, former Belgian MP, expressed a similar opinion. See this previous article to get a hold of that. Excellent journalist and brilliant author Russ Baker also expressed himself on the subject in a terrific article that you can consult through this last post, here: Russ Baker on the Peter B. Collins Show.

Lode Vanoost makes a pretty good assessment of the situation in Libya. In a nutshell, he says that NATO is not going to give up its position once Gaddafi has been removed. For him, we are witnessing the second colonization of Africa. While Egypt and Tunisia have seen uprisings by their citizens that led to the toppling of their dictators, Libya is experiencing something else. In effect, the « uprising » in Libya is led by armed gangs with the backing of NATO and with the use of military force. It has nothing to do with Egypt and Tunisia. He concludes the interview by saying, with great accuracy: « People or organizations who take power by violence are not really tempted to give away that power by democratic means ». Yes, indeed. And it has certainly to do with the advances of China in Africa that has taken place in the last years. The West is trying to protect its backyard.

Encore une fois les Québécois vont se faire fourrer, prise 3

J’ai pensé qu’il serait de mise de ramener un autre épisode de cette série dans le contexte de la présentation du Plan Nord si cher à Jean Charest. Ce Plan Nord est une vraie catastrophe qui va littéralement donner le nord du Québec à des compagnies privées. Que faut-il donc faire pour convaincre la gagne Libérale que les Québécois ne veulent plus se faire traiter en colonisés, en inférieurs, en aborigènes? On n’en veut plus de votre Québec-colonie-à-fourrures, est-ce que c’est clair? On en veut pour notre argent et on veut être « maîtres chez nous ». Je n’ai pas de problème avec le fait que des compagnies étrangères s’installent dans le nord du Québec et exploitent des ressources, à condition qu’elles paient des redevances substantielles et que l’on puisse récupérer une partie des profits. C’est simple mais Jean Charest ne semble pas le comprendre. Il est plutôt pressé d’offrir sur un plateau d’argent nos ressources naturelles à des étrangers, tout en faisant payer les Québécois pour les infrastructures routières et des subventions aux entreprises! Non mais, nous prendre pour des imbéciles à ce point, ça ne se dit pas. Jean Charest aura été le pire Premier Ministre du Québec de tous les temps.

The TransCanada Corp Keystone XL expansion: personal tragedies and human suffering through civilization changes

Publié le par
Répondre

This National Post article about a Nebraska rancher opposed to the passing of the Keystone Pipeline XL expansion on his land is revelatory. Randy Thompson, a cattle buyer, is fighting to avoid a foreign company, TransCanada Corp, from bringing its pipeline on his land. I am saying revelatory because similar situations have happened on thousands of different occasions in the past. Everytime a new empire sets foot, or a new civilization takes roots, or an old one dies, we see good and decent people being caught in the implosion, explosion or redefining of the old ways to set the path for the new ones. People like Mr Thompson who have been forced to relocalize or cede a part of their land, by persuasion or by force, have been millions throughout history. Whether we talk about the Roman Empire conquering the world, the French Revolution cutting a few strategic heads, the armies of Muhammad conquering North Africa or the American colonies declaring their independence, in these occurences, there were always people who, even though they hadn’t done anything wrong, were caught in the processes of change to their detriment. That’s the way I see what is happening to Mr Thompson.

The Anglo-American Empire is under attack by the forces of the Third Reich that have gone underground after WWII, and they are more alive than ever. In effect, they have veiled their activities in all kinds of cloaks, such as the Green movement, social activism of all sorts, counter-culture activities, religious cults, religions per se, and sometimes intelligence agencies and other governmental, military and international organizations that they have infiltrated and co-opted to implement and push forward their agenda. Furthermore, the Anglo-American Empire is under attack as well by the most reactionary people that you can find on the surface of this Earth, the Arab/Islamic world that has been, since WWII, contaminated by nazism due to the collaboration of Hasan al-Banna, the founder of the Muslim Brotherhood, with Adolf Hitler. This world, driven by the morals of Sharia, proposes of bringing the world back to what it was in 7th century A.D. Clearly, we can’t go back to that era, simply because of the most basic rule of human history: to always look forward. These reactionary elements that we find in the Arab world, in Middle Eastern countries such as Saudi Arabia and other states of the Gulf, are basically 7th century Bedouins…with billions of petro-dollars in their pockets…which makes them extremely dangerous. Contrary to westerners, these Bedouins have not worked to get their wealth. They were only lucky enough to be the nomads walking the country when the gasoline engine was invented and that oil became something important. Continuer la lecture →

Xavier Rolet on a sales pitch spree in Montreal…Don’t waste your energy, we don’t « buy » it

The excellent National Post published on Thursday June the 16th a follow up to the still ongoing imbroglio surrounding LSE’s bid for TMX, versus the local bid presented by the Maple Group created out of several canadian banks and pension funds. Xavier Rolet, CEO of the LSE, and Thomas Kloet, chief executive of TMX Group Inc, paid a visit to corporate Quebec on last Wednesday in a Marriott Hotel ballroom. They went there basically to try wining over the opinion of Quebec’s financial elite who had nevertheless already presented a counter-offer through the Maple Group for the acquisition of TMX. As Premier Jean Charest does endorse Maple Group’s bid and that the Group includes many financial institutions based in Quebec, the task ahead was difficult.

First, we must all admit that Xavier Rolet does what he has to do: he gives his sales pitch like a professional. He presents arguments, elements of interest, etc, to try to win over a favorable opinion. As an example, he even said that Maple’s bid was based on « worry and fear ». Now, that’s a big statement but it misses the point. Those who back LSE’s bid think there is no problem with it, since Canada is an open market economy. O.K. But again, that’s not the point. TMX-LSE merger has been presented, from the start, as a « merger of equals » . I am not inventing it, these are their own words. But when you end up with only 45% of the shares, compared to 55% for the opposing merging company, that’s not a « merger of equals », it is an acquisition, a take-over in disguise. I am not an economist. I don’t even have an undergraduate degree in mathematics. But I know my numbers. 45 doesn’t equal 55. Period. Whatever way you want to put it, these two numbers will never equal. Are you taking us for fools? Continuer la lecture →

The Economics of 9/11. When greed becomes high class virtue: social darwinism on the horizon

Much has been said and discussed about the various hypotheses related to the engineering of 9/11, in terms of concrete, physical means. Controlled demolition, nano-thermites, beams of energy, wired buildings, etc, every possible lead has been explored, including the one of the official narrative. Because it entails a much deeper, complex set of evidence and pieces of information, I will discuss this aspect of the subject in a later post. However, for the moment, let’s be aware that very little has been said about the financial or economical dimensions of 9/11, which are in fact extremely important for the comprehension of what happened on that date.

As it is often the case, I rely for that matter on the research of the excellent anti-fascist radio host Dave Emory. To begin with, to set the scene, one thing that has to be cleared right away is that there are powerful elements in western society, including America, who are in business joint ventures with the Muslim Brotherhood. The MB, as an entity, has a corporate capitalism doctrine based on the teachings of Ibn Khaldun, a medieval Muslim philosopher. Because of that, members of this reactionary group have been identified as dignified business partners by these same elements of our society who advocate economic laissez-faire policies. In other terms, what we also call free market capitalism, or used to call fascism in the ’30s and ’40s, is now in league with Islamists to impose by force their economic and financial model over the world, at the expense evidently of local populations who only demand for democratic reforms, freedom of speech and respect of human rights. In that regard, the situation is comparable to what happened during WWII, when U.S. and other western corporations did business with Nazi Germany while U.S. and allied troops were dying on the battle field fighting against them.
