Born in Deutschland 1965, hometown was Bütthart, parents were not U.S. government employees. However, when father was tricked into joining the U.S. Air Force Civil Service, in 1969, with the promise that we could remain in Germany, we were promptly shipped off to Iran. Due to one of my Iranian educators being disappeared, along with her husband, by the U.S. ally Shah of Iran's Israeli & U.S. created Savak (for the then official terrorist act of promoting the idea that women can vote), and due to my U.S. citizen mother being placed on Savak's Terrorist Arrest List (for supporting the idea that women should vote, at that time the U.S. ally Shah of Iran did not allow women to vote, now they can) we left Iran for the United States in 1973, literally in the middle of the night. At the U.S. Embassy airbase the CIA operated Gooney Bird (C-47) was so packed with other U.S. citizens fleeing our ally Iran (because the Shah gave the OK to arrest any U.S. citizen for such terrorist acts as promoting the concept of voting) that we were turned away by the Loadmaster and had to take a chance on a civilian flight out of Tehran's airport. My father told me he and my mother had three culture shocks; first when they arrived in Germany as civilians, then after being shipped off to Iran as U.S. government employees, then again returning to the United States as unemployed civilians (because so much had changed in the U.S. while they were gone, their only news source was the U.S. Armed Forces Radio & Television Service which heavily censored information about the home front). Since I graduated high school in 1982 I've worked for U.S. government contractors and state & local government agencies (in California), convenience store manager in California, retail/property management in Georgia, California and Idaho. Spent the 1990s in the TV news business producing number one rated local news programs in California, Arizona and Idaho. 14+ years with California and Idaho Army National Guard and the U.S. Air Force. Obtained a BA degree in International Studies from Idaho State University at the age of 42. Unemployed since 2015, so don't tell me the economy has recovered.

H7N9 update: 131 cases, 32 deaths! Spreads to Indonesia?

The UN World Heath Organization reporting 131 cases, and 32 deaths.

A 79 years old woman in Jiangxi Province is the latest case, and a 56 years old man died in China’s Henan Province, three weeks after symptoms began.  He claimed not to have had any contact with birds, but health officials said there were empty bird cages in the hallway of the apartment he was living in.

In Fujian Province, another bird from a poultry market tested positive for the new H7N9.  That makes 52 birds testing positive compared to the 131 humans who’ve tested positive.

The Indonesian province of North Kalimantan has banned the importation of ducks.  That’s because local health officials claim the new bird flu has been found in neighboring provinces: “We reject ducks that come from East Java, both frozen and live. This is because there have been indications of the new bird flu variant in Surabaya.”– Elang Buana, Tarakan Husbandry and Crops Agency

The result of the duck ban in North Kalimantan is a 70% drop in supplies of ducks, forcing markets and restaurants to make drastic changes.  I have not found any reports to specify which “new” bird flu the official is talking about.  Last year Indonesia’s duck markets were hit hard by a new H5N1 bird flu.

If Jews are God’s chosen people, then God is pure Evil!!!

According to Defence for Children International, more than 7500 Palestinian children have been imprisoned and tortured by Israel, in the past 11 years.

According to the United Nations Children Fund (UNICEF) Israel systematically (try the word ‘ritually’) abuses Palestinian children: “Ill-treatment of Palestinian children in the Israeli military detention system appears to be widespread, systematic and institutionalized.”

Many boys were kidnapped by IDF personnel during night time home invasions.

You can go to YouTube and watch numerous videos of IDF personnel using Palestinian children as human shields, and if that’s not enough for you even Israeli courts have convicted IDF personnel for such acts!

Then what about the revelations that Israelis were deliberately killing Palestinians to harvest their organs?!

How about Israelis declaring Arab protests to be anti-Semitic, when Arabs are Semitic?  Are the Jews saying Arabs are not Semitic?

IDF personnel routinely shoot at and even kill Palestinian farmers.  IDF personnel routinely help illegal Jewish settlers steal Palestinian land.  One way the IDF does that is to declare the area a military zone.

The Tel Aviv regime has just approved another illegal settlement, this time 296 illegal (under international law) homes in the West Bank.

Black Jews and Christians, who migrate to Israel are routinely imprisoned by the white Jews, and then labeled “infiltrators”, not even illegal immigrants.  They are sometimes used as indentured servants or deported back to their country of origin.

It was recently revealed that Israel is forcibly taking DNA samples from “infiltrators” from African countries, as many as 1000 samples since 2012!   Why for?  This revelation was made by Israeli cops to the Israeli Knesset, and then published in the Israeli media.  Officially, Israeli cops are using Black Africans as scapegoats to explain crime in Israel.  The DNA samples were supposedly used to solve crimes, yet not one DNA sample has so far been linked to any crime in Israel.  Basically Israelis believe they can do what they want with Blacks from Africa, because they’re “infiltrators”, not refugees or migrants: “We are aware that those entering Israel have had unpleasant experiences, to say the least, but still, we’re aware of the fact that they broke the law. The law defines them as infiltrators.”-Commander Eran Kamin, Investigations Division

The UN Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) says Israel has systematically pushed Palestinians living in Al Quds (Jerusalem) into abject poverty, in fact the report calls it systematic “disintegration” caused by intentional isolation by Israel.

Palestinian Jews, long in residence before the white European Israelis arrived, are treated just as badly as the Palestinian Muslims.  They’ve been forced from their homes and driven into the refugee areas.

U.S. Christians support Israel, despite the fact that Israel treats Palestinian Christians just as badly as Palestinian Muslims.

It is now common knowledge that Israeli officials bribe and threaten U.S. officials.  It has also become common knowledge throughout the World that U.S. leaders are nothing but Tools in the hands of Israelis.

Then there’s the fact that the Iran-Iraq War,  Desert Storm and now the War on Terror were all False Flag events concocted, instigated by, or taken advantage of by Israeli leaders.  It’s all there in black & white, in a policy paper published in 1982, written by zionist Oded Yinon.   Read A Strategy for Israel in the Nineteen Eighties, and you should recognize almost all the military/social events that have, and are taking place in West Asia (Middle East).

Key points from Yinon’s policy paper: “….Breaking Egypt down territorially into distinct geographical regions is the political aim of Israel…..Libya, Sudan…will join the downfall and dissolution of Egypt.…The dissolution of Syria and Iraq later on….Lebanon, is Israel’s primary target on the Eastern front in the long run….Iraq….is guaranteed as a candidate for Israel’s targets...Every kind of inter-Arab confrontation will assist us….The entire Arabian peninsula is a natural candidate for dissolution….Jordan constitutes an immediate strategic target…Dispersal of the [Palestinian] population is therefore a domestic strategic aim of the highest order…”

Basically the zionists decided that the only way Israel could be secure is if all surrounding countries were plunged into chaos, and they don’t even care if achieving such a goal destroys their allies (like their Tool the United States).  A classic control through chaos/divide and conquer strategy.

The only conclusion I can make is that the God of the Jews is pure evil, and anyone in the United States, or any other country, that continues to support Israel must be a closet Satan worshiper (since most claim to be Christians)!

H7N9 update: U.S. declares state of emergency!!! Your immune system does not respond!

08 May 2013 (17:07 UTC-07 Tango)/27 Jumada t-Tania 1434/18 Ordibehest 1392/29 Ding-Si (3rd month) 4711

Quietly, in the middle of April, The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) declared a public health emergency over the new H7N9 virus.  On the surface the declaration allows the use of testing kits that are not approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).  However, on 22 April a new FDA approved H7 test was made “….available to all qualified U.S. public health and U.S. Department of Defense laboratories…”

The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) has already set up a Situational Awareness Coordination Unit, which includes coordination with the U.S. Department of the Interior.

Quietly, on 01 May, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) stated: “…CDC has activated its Emergency Operations Center to coordinate efforts. In the United States, planning for H7N9 vaccine clinical trials is under way. Although no decision has been made to initiate an H7N9 vaccination program in the United States, CDC recommends that local authorities and preparedness programs take time to review and update their pandemic influenza vaccine preparedness plans……CDC also recommends that public health agencies review their overall pandemic influenza plans…..”

A report from the NewScientist says health and security personnel will begin testing people at entry points into the country, as several Asian countries are already doing.  The concern is that H7N9 is proving to be not only difficult to detect and treat, but that it is a sneaky virus which manages to avoid detection by your own body’s immune system.  This allows it to replicate and overwhelm you.

“We still don’t know the animal reservoir of this virus or the source of exposure. We need a solid epidemiological investigation to nail down a common behavior between patients….All we can tell people at the moment is they should be very vigilant about their basic hygiene practices.”-Gregory Hartl, UNWHO

France has confirmed a 65 years old man is infected with the new SARS like coronavirus called MERS.  He got infected while on a trip to the United Arab Emirates (UAE).

The UN World Health Organization says there are now 30 confirmed human cases, 18 of which have died.  Most cases are in Saudi Arabia, but have spread to Jordan, UAE, Qatar, United Kingdom, Germany and now France.

World War 3, West Asian Front: Israel invades Gaza!

08 May 2013 (13:34 UTC-07 Tango)/27 Jumada t-Tania 1434/18 Ordibehest 1391/29 Ding-Si (3rd month) 4711

Reports that IDF has invaded the town of Beit Hanoun, in the northern Gaza Strip.  Palestinian reports say tanks and armored bulldozers have begun moving from a staging area 300 meters inside Gaza Strip.  Witnesses claim four Merkavas began firing in all directions as two bulldozers began tearing up farmland, forcing the farmers to flee.  They also claim the IDF is attacking fishing boats (which they say happens on a daily basis).

This comes a day after Islamic Jihad said they had intelligence saying Israel was about to invade Gaza Strip: “The Zionist enemy is getting ready for a major military operation on Gaza. We expect an escalation in the coming days but we are not sitting idle. Our military wing has been training for another war and it will not be a cakewalk for Zionists when they come to confront our fighters.”-Khader Habib, Islamic Jihad

And that followed another report on 05 May, that cited an Israeli website called Walla, which said Israeli leaders have called for a Operation Pillar of Defense II against Gaza Strip.

On 02 May, it was reported that IDF was massing tanks and armored bulldozers east of Beit Hanoun.  The Palestinian report said the IDF had set up a staging area 300 meters inside Gaza Strip.  Other reports say an IDF Apache fired on a farm to the east of Beit Lahiya Agriculture School.

World War 3, West Asian Front: Israel crosses Red Line, kidnaps Grand Mufti, raids Al Aqsa, Jordan expels Israeli diplomats!

“These Israeli actions violate international law and obstruct peace efforts. As occupying force, Israel is responsible for preventing such provocations!”-Hussein Majali, Interior Minister of Jordan

On 07 May Israel Defense Forces (IDF) backed up by hundreds of illegal zionist settlers crossed the Red Line of the official protector of Al Quds, Jordan, and invaded the Al Aqsa Mosque in Al Quds (Jerusalem).  Palestinians then began rioting against the zionists!  16 Palestinians were kidnapped by the IDF in the West Bank.

Today the IDF conducted a home invasion and crossed another Red Line; they  kidnapped the Grand Mufti of Al Quds, Mohammed Hussein!

Also today, the Jordanian King has summoned the Israeli ambassador after the 150 member Jordanian Parliament voted unanimously to expel Israeli diplomats over the assault on Al Aqsa and the kidnapping of the Grand Mufti.

World War 3, West Asian Front: BBC report of explosions in Iran false?

08 May 2013 (12:04 UTC-07 Tango)/27 Jumada t-Tania 1434/18 Ordibehest 1391/29 Ding-Si (3rd month) 4711

According to Azerbaijani news media reports, the three explosions reported by a BBC Persian journalist were not airstrikes, but controlled demolitions.

“Those were the planned explosions of destroying old ammunition. This is natural, and all of the explosions were carried out in Shahriar of Shahriar County of Tehran Province, safely.”-Ali Abdullahi, Iran’s deputy interior minister

Capitalist Commodity Markets to blame for Pocatello’s Hoku Polysilicon near abandonment!

08 May 2013 (09:49 UTC-07 Tango)/27 Jumada t-Tania 1434/18 Ordibehest 1391/29 Ding-Si (3rd month) 4711

The massive, and expensive (to local tax payers), Hoku Materials polysilicon factory sits idle and unfinished in Pocatello, Idaho.

Red Neck right wingers like to point the finger at President Obama, saying ‘I told you so’ concerning ‘clean energy’ projects, but the reason for the demise of many solar power companies is actually the capitalist commodity market system and government interference.

Polysilicon prices have crashed and burned since construction started on the 50 American football fields long factory.  It just isn’t worth it to produce the stuff used in solar power panels.  In 2008 polysilicon was worth $400 per kilogram, it’s now crashed to a paltry $20.50!

Hoku Materials ghost town factory, Pocatello, Idaho. 50 football fields long at a cost of at least $400 million.

Hoku Materials ghost town factory, Pocatello, Idaho. 50 football fields long at a cost of at least $400 million.

The ‘experts’ got everything wrong.  They thought the high petroleum prices would drive societies into the arms of clean energy companies, but the problem is that so many clean energy companies started production that soon there was a glut of polysilicon on the market, even before the construction of Pocatello Hoku plant was close to being finished.

Then add to that the trade wars between China, the U.S. and European Union.  Eventually, the Obama administration jacked up tariffs so high on Chinese polysilicon companies that it wasn’t worth it to do business in the U.S.  By then Hoku Corporation (the parent of Hoku Materials) had become Chinese owned, due to financial problems (including Hoku Materials not being able to pay its construction contractor, JH Kelly, or pay its Idaho utility bills, so many times that both threatened to seize the property).

By the middle of 2012 the unfinished $400 million USD Pocatello polysilicon factory was moth balled, staffing reduced to just 30 people, with rumors of liquidation in bankruptcy court.  By the end of 2012, the Chinese company that bought into Hoku (Tianwei) was getting blasted in the Chinese media for buying a pig in a poke.  According to former Hoku Corporation CEO, Scott Paul, Tianwei invested “….more than $129 million of its own capital in Hoku, and they have provided for another $244 million in debt financing from banks in China.”

Now back to the ‘experts’.  In February 2013, ‘experts’ predicted that polysilicon prices had bottomed out.  They were wrong!  Prices had hit $21 per kilogram, and polysilicon producers said there was no reason to produce anymore until the price went up over $25.

In March 2013, British media reported that prices had crashed 50% compared to the same time last year.

In April 2013, another report said that polysilicon prices could continue to crash because of the anti-free market tariffs imposed by the major players; China, South Korea, European Union and United States.  And, the ‘experts’ again said prices had bottomed out.  The average price at the end of April 2013 was $20.50.

So where does that leave Hoku Corporation’s Hoku Materials factory in Pocatello?  Optimistic officials with the Bannock Development Corporation (a County level organization that worked hard to bring Hoku to Pocatello, including huge local tax breaks) think that anytime now Hoku will start production: “It’s a wait and see thing, depending on the market……Basically, [Hoku Corp.] needs to fire up the plant when it’s ready to go.”-John Regetz, Bannock Development

Sounds like the local development folks aren’t communicating with Hoku.  The latest statement from the company indicates that bankruptcy and liquidation is the only option being considered: “….exploration of potential restructuring at Hoku Materials and Hoku Corporation is ongoing, with no formal update at this time.”-Hoku Corporation statement

“Restructuring” is code for bankruptcy/liquidation.  So no Mister Regetz, it sounds like Hoku is not planning to “fire up the plant”.

Green/clean energy just doesn’t make big enough profits for the crony capitalist system.  Another case in point is the recent announcement by BP (British Petroleum) that it will abandon it’s wind power operations near Idaho Falls, Idaho, as well as its wind and solar projects across the United States.

Also, don’t forget the artificial reduction in demand created by all those government tariffs.

The answer is that clean energy projects need to be run like a non-profit co-op, but the problem is that crony capitalists don’t like that and will do everything they can to prevent that from happening (’cause contrary to their propaganda, they do not like competition, especially if it’s from a non-profit).

World War 3, West Asian Front: Israel bans civilian traffic in Golan! All access to internet cut off in Syria?

Israeli Defense Force announced a travel ban in the occupied Golan Heights.  The ban affects civilian travel on the northern border road and the Heights eastern road.

It appears the ban is indefinite, until further notice.

The UN Interim Force In Lebanon has declared the IDF intrusion into Lebanese airspace (on their way to bomb Syria) a violation of international law: “UNIFIL says that in the course of the past week it has observed a higher number of Israeli air violations over Lebanese air space…..compel Israel to halt its violations of Lebanon’s sovereignty by air, sea and land, and carry out all its obligations in accordance with Resolution 1701.”-Martin Nesirky, United Nations

It appears all internet service has been cut off in Syria, according to Google’s Transparency Report.  I tried to access some Syrian sites and got a “server not found”, or “forbidden” message, but other sites still came up.

World War 3, West Asian Front: Israeli airstrike on Iran?

The Jerusalem Post reporting explosions west of Tehran, Iran.  They say a BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation) Persian channel reporter posted a tweat saying three explosions took place at a missile testing center in Iran.

I wasn’t able to confirm on the BBC Persian site.

IsraelDefense is saying the explosions hit the Shahriar district of the City of Karaj, which is northwest of Tehran.
