Dr Seuss behind racist anti-German propaganda!

Recently the U.S. Department of Defense released a propaganda film written by Doctor Seuss (aka U.S. Army Captain Theodor Geisel), and produced by Frank Capra, that’s filled with lies about the ‘German People’ as a way of justifying the never ending occupation of Germany by the United States.  I wonder what all those peacenik left-wing liberal Germans think about it?

The release of this propaganda film took place right after the U.S Army Garrison Bavaria’s attendance in the German-American Friendship Dinner in Sulzbach-Rosenberg, Germany, on 08FEB2019.

The true reason for the violent occupation of Germany was-not the threat of the Soviet Union, it was to pacify and suppress the German people, looks like it worked.

Dr Seuss reveals the truth behind those letters home from the war!

During World War Two Doctor Seuss (true name Theodor Geisel) was a U.S. Army Captain working in its propaganda unit.  Recently the Department of Defense (known as the War Office before the end of World War Two) released a cartoon written by Captain Geisel, and voiced by Mel Blanc, showing why all those letters home were filled with nothing but mush about G.I.s (Government Issue) missing their loved ones, or blatant lies about everything being fine on the front.

Interestingly the propaganda cartoon Private SNAFU (SNAFU means Situation Normal: All Fucked Up) meant to justify the censorship of war-fighter’s letters home was able to get away with naked booby drawings in the background (see if you can spot them), in fact ‘boobies’ were a common them in SNAFU cartoons:

MARYLAND: U.S. Army Research, Development and Engineering Command Edgewood Chemical Biological Center (RDECOM ECBC) claims to have created a process which can detect low-level opioid exposure as long as two weeks after the exposure.  The reason the U.S. Army is working on such a detection system is that super-lethal opioids are now considered weapons of mass destruction: “This is unprecedented research that lays a strong foundation for future work in opioid exposure detection and medical responses to that exposure. As opioids continue to post a significant threat domestically and on the battlefield…”-Trevor Glaros

“This is an ultra-potent opioid, and the level it would take to intoxicate you is incredibly hard to detect, especially in sub-lethal amounts. We can barely detect lethal amounts. If you were exposed, but unsure, we might have a hard time telling if it was carfentanil.-Elizabeth Dhummakupt

Ghost ships washing ashore on secluded Navy base!

18 February 2019 (15:44 UTC-07 Tango 06) 29 Bahman 1397/12 Jumada t-Tania 1440/14 Bin-Yin 4717

On 14FEB2019 a ghost ship washed ashore, at the end of a U.S. Navy runway on the secluded Naval Air Station North Island (part of Naval Base Coronado), off the southern coast of California.  According to the official report this was not the first time, it’s the sixth mystery boat to come ashore and block the runway since the beginning of the Gregorian year!

While Air Station North Island belongs to the USN (U.S. Navy), it’s airport runway is used by all branches of the U.S. military.  On 01JAN2019, the USAF (U.S. Air Force) deployed V-22 Ospreys, AC-130Ws and MC-130Js for special ops Exercise Emerald Trident:

The USA (U.S. Army) also deployed MH-47 Chinooks for Exercise Emerald Trident. 

On 09FEB2019, USN-Reserve Coastal Riverine units conducted launch and recovery training.  

Is there a connection between the mystery ghost ships and all the military activity around Naval Air Station North Island?

The official report concerning the latest ghost ship says Navy personnel found that the fuel tank in the ship had ruptured.  Other unnamed ‘hazmat’ materials were found.

Since 2014, Naval Base Coronado has removed more than 60 boats, 90 tons of debris and 6-hundred pounds of hazmat at a cost of more than half a million dollars to federal taxpayers.  The USN blames the city of San Diego for the mystery debris, saying the city’s Zuniga Shoal area has become a dumping ground for abandoned ships because the city doesn’t police the area.
