Defense Dept. admits US supported Islamic State vs. Syria...

Foreign Policy Journal reports that Defense Intelligence Agency memos obtained by Judicial Watch show that, to quote the most explicit one from 2012:

“THE WEST, GULF COUNTRIES, AND TURKEY [WHO] SUPPORT THE [SYRIAN] OPPOSITION… THERE IS THE POSSIBILITY OF ESTABLISHING A DECLARED OR UNDECLARED SALAFIST PRINCIPALITY IN EASTERN SYRIA (HASAKA AND DER ZOR), AND THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT THE SUPPORTING POWERS TO THE OPPOSITION WANT, IN ORDER TO ISOLATE THE SYRIAN REGIME…”.

This just confirms the message of Ben Swann's video "Truth in Media: Origin of ISIS" with Antiwar.com's Angela Keaton which traces previously know information about the US involvement. A libertarian, Swan does news on RT.com now. He'll be heading to the camps with the rest of us when the whip comes down...

The dreams of the Sixties' sixty-somethings

I loved the ending of AMC's MAD MEN. Screwed up adman Don Draper OOOming happily on a California hilltop - and the last scene is "Buy the World A Coke" advert.  In the story he was supposed to be in charge of the CocaCola account - if he ever returned to the advertising firm from playing hippy hooky. Artistic license of course, not the real story. 

I worked for several months in 1972 in one of the biggest agencies in New York City and it sure brought back old memories. Except by then most of the younger secretaries ran around bra-less and in jeans. See photo of me holding what we used to smoke in the creative department.  And lots of other places in the building.

Just because the revolution of love, peace and non-aggression didn't happen after the famous "Buy the world a coke" advertisement below, doesn't mean there aren't lots of people who remember there was such a dream from the generation of us Sixties, Sixty-somethings. Including still held by the younger generation which the show's producers and writers represent. So let's chalk it up as one more win for higher consciousness and liberty!

Lusty month of May....

Where did April go? May is my favorite month, being a lusty taurus the bull as I am...
Obviously I have a variety of profound thoughts I express elsewhere, but just to make my fan club happy, here are some relevant memes of interest...



Hmmm, must have used THAT one before...

Note: I'm sitting on lots of rants against sexism and Racism but too busy doing something about them... the oppression never stops...
