Kosovo and the Feds

A cold December day in 1850 South Carolina seceded from the Union. Following the secession were multiple acts of aggression by the US Federal Government. When reinforcing Fort Sumter, the federal government began a new chapter in American History; they refused to let several states leave a union which no longer served their interest, including the Palmetto State's.
Following the Fed's antagonism and a battle or two in SC, many southern states also seceded from a government they found to be dangerous and degenerate. War ensued. With over 600,000 deaths, almost 1 million casualties, and unquantifiable fiscal damage to the southern states, the south lost what many consider a second War for Independence.

Kosovo faces similar struggles – though not identical in motivation – to the Antebellum South, they seek autonomy apart from a prejudice government. The US Federal government seems to have a double standard. Though a hypothetical situation, what if California were to secede... or more realistically, Texas once more attempted to leave this unrealized democracy?
Is it probable? Of course not. The federal elite, whom ever they may have been at different times over the last 150 years, have never rescinded authority. The facts are, they would refuse to let them loose of its tentacles so as not to disappointed the special interests who have an undying thirst for power; none of them can comprehend personal freedom or self rule. Once they see a sign of weakness, like in Serbia’s case with Kosovo, they latch on to the dissenting crowd with a lasting grasp, holding tight until self-destruction and finality.

Our government supports the rebellious Kosovo because it is a new nation, which will one day be a puppet of the Western Neo-Con Elite. It is in the interest of interventionist rulers like Daddy Bush and Clinton and G-Dubb, and the next one to keep dissidence and violence afoot wherever they extend an arm of power. There are many arms to this beast, many heads and legs but only one heart: exploited US taxpayers.
Multiple conflicts, like those in the West Bank, Korea, Cuba, and South America would end eventually if the US stops intervening in the affairs of other peoples. After a retrospective observance of 170 years of American international wrongdoings, I guess it would not hurt to remind Americans of the Monroe Doctrine:
In the wars of the European powers, in matters relating to themselves, we have never taken part, nor does it comport with our policy, so to do. It is only when our rights are invaded, or seriously menaced that we resent injuries, or make preparations for our defense.
The miserable reality is the beast will lose power when we, the exploited taxpayers, cannot pay the bills any longer. As we fall, the puppet nations, like South Korea, Iraq, Israel, and now Kosovo, will be able to prosper more than ever because they no longer wear the American interventionist leash. Their success will be the epilogue of our downfall as long as we refuse to remove the ruling class of the US, with their war-mongering, special interest, smoke filled room bullies who pull the strings and push the buttons of American federal policy makers.

Dark Horse of the Apocalypse

Here I am, my second blog entry. What I have to say, I am not sure, I have so much to say but nothing to talk about. I watched I Am Legend the other day; in spite of video-game type CGI, the film was pretty decent. I cannot say it was memorable, as far as an apocalyptic film goes, it rose just above mediocre. Children of Men is far more entertaining, deep, and plot driven. If one were to spend two hours, the latter would be better time spent, especially considering the production quality. Speaking of the apocalypse, the presidential race is heating up quickly. Apparently, Mike Huckabee has something to offer as a presidential candidate. I did not know the GOP is so interested in perpetuating the Bush foreign policy that they are willing to support a pseudo-clone of the current commander-in-chief our nation so dearly admires. Ron Paul receives little-to-no attention from the media compared to other candidates but he has the money and grass roots attention (including a priva...

Bye Bye Mr. Stinky

I was a special education teacher. Matter of fact, I taught Special Education for four-and-a-half years. I taught some non-verbal kiddos how to read, increased the diversity in their diets, taught them games and social skills, and–what I am most proud of–I helped kids out of diapers, who were well past the time to meet that milestone… And let me tell you, that is not always an easy task. It is always a rewarding task. Find the carrot By carrot, I mean the motivation for doing something that is not preferred; for example, if you want to buy a beer, but you have no money, you might help a friend move. Moving is a total garbage activity, but he may pay you and buy you beer; if you know how to negotiate, you will get an unhealthy amount of pizza too. BAM! You had no money; now you have pizza, beer, and money, because you leveraged your time and effort. Potty training is no different. The kiddos usually don't know how to leverage their time and resources to get what t...

What matters in online dialogue about religion?

As an Eastern Orthodox Christian, I can't claim I know each person's destiny. Many christians (protestants mainly) would claim they do know this because they have particularly keen insight into what the Bible says or the hearts of their fellow man. Humans have such a short amount of time to understand the experience they are having on this earth; I believe (and this is me here, not any sect or church) that an atheist may believe in God if said atheist were to meet God. And, if said atheist was not always introduced to a God who's followers killed members of other faiths, burned books, pissed on corpses, insulted homosexuals, or violated the religious sensibilities others. Because of this, God would not reject or judge said atheist, but rather, reward the person for having a heart toward truth and kindness: the source of which is the creator of all things! perhaps the atheist is reserving his heart for Christ, remaining chaste, but the people presenting Jesus to him have d...
