So what if the Saudis are angered because Obama didn't attack Syria and is moving toward better relations with Iran. There are very large oil reserves in Iran. That's why the U.S. installed the Shah in the first place. Things went to hell between Iran and the U.S. when the Iranians overthrew the evil bastard. America meddled in Iran's affairs and provided yet another example of causing a problem it now claims it's trying to fix.
Edward Snowden has struck again with the news that Angela Merkel is not alone, the U.S. has spied on as many as thirty-five world leaders. What's interesting to me is that the leaders used mobile phones so heavily when it's notorious that they are so easy to monitor. The NSA was apparently monitoring at the server level but that's not the only way to do it.
After Rupert Murdoch's News of the World was hacking mobile phones at will, it's not clear why it's a surprise that the NSA does it too. The mistake is to think only the NSA is doing it as Britain's GCHQ is another example of massively-invasive spying.
According to the same recent information from Snowden, the NSA has been spying on Angela Merkel for more than ten years. The U.S. responded that not much of value had been gained from doing it and this sure explains why they kept up the spying for all those years, doesn't it. Obama said he didn't know just like Reagan always said I don't recall when someone asked him about his crimes.
RT News is reporting on how food suppliers in the U.S. are deliberately using addictive substances in food so, of course, the incredible obesity in America is because the people are helpless victims. Alcoholics are victims, junkies are victims, and on and on ... what a load of crap.
Sonya Jevette is my friend and I hope to see her play live when I get to Texas. She sings about "Big Girls" and she is a big girl but she's not obese. There are lots of people in America who need to be carted around in trucks.
The Rally Against Mass Surveillance in Washington on October 26 was somewhat successful as there were thousands of people but it was nowhere near as big as the civil rights demonstrations in Washington in the sixties. This is likely in part because there was no notice of it in national media and also because of the complacence of the American people. That complacence shows a singular lack of imagination as most don't have much of a view of now and hardly any have a view of the future.
The Road to Sochi promotion Russia is doing is quite a beautiful thing and most recently the Olympic torch was taken to the North Pole. It is on a route that goes thousands of kilometers around Russia and I don't think there has ever been an event like this before. It's obviously a public relations effort but what a charming thing to do it in support of the Olympics which have served the cause of sports and peace for thousands of years.
Big, big storm in England today. Most of the trains aren't running, flights canceled at Heathrow, trees down all over the place, and lots of flooding. The storm isn't affecting Scotland too much but they're weren't having too much fun in the southwest of England. The wind hit 99 mph at one point.
