eikonoswait.. does this mean Bombing for Democracy isn't working?May 14 06:19
qu1j0t3the last few paragraphs are kind of weirdMay 14 06:22
qu1j0t3they want to say "Pakistan will ignore the problem because they're broke and need US aid"May 14 06:22
qu1j0t3but in reality the aid CANNOT be substantial enough to keep Pakistan running.May 14 06:23
qu1j0t3it's only "big bribe" sizedMay 14 06:23
qu1j0t3which is more or less its role, i suspectMay 14 06:23
eikonosyeah, but pakistan isn't one personMay 14 06:35
eikonosso the judge might have a personal reason to be against the dronesMay 14 06:36
eikonosand the govt might have reason to want US cashMay 14 06:36
eikonosmaybe the govt just wants *more* cashMay 14 06:36
qu1j0t3that equation doesn't solveMay 14 06:38
qu1j0t3in any case, i don't think that the aid money is what stops a resolution May 14 06:39
qu1j0t3i think it's because, as forever, the US won't change its behaviour, period.May 14 06:39
qu1j0t3there's nobody who can tell themMay 14 06:39
eikonosyou'd think pakistan could go to the ICC?May 14 06:40
qu1j0t3i don't think the ICC works for thisMay 14 06:40
qu1j0t3the US has been careful not to sign anythingMay 14 06:40
qu1j0t3and has said that it will take its personnel out of the ICC by forceMay 14 06:40
eikonosi heard canada signs those things as "pierre poutine" ;)May 14 06:40

qu1j0t3you're watchingMay 14 06:42
qu1j0t3you see them go over and leave a note, and think what a great guyMay 14 06:42
qu1j0t3do you know the rest?May 14 06:42
eikonosno...May 14 06:42
qu1j0t3the note says: "Everybody saw me leave this note, and thinks I am a great guy. But you and I know better, don't we."May 14 06:47
eikonoshahaMay 14 06:48
qu1j0t3I can imagine Harper doing that... it's like the scene in <many movies> where the vaultkeeper comes to work one morning, opens the vault, and everything's goneMay 14 06:49
qu1j0t3Harper leaves a note.. "FUCK YOU, CANADIANS BWAHAHAHAHAAH I GOT AWAY WITH IT"May 14 06:50

schestowitz"If not with words, then with what, the actual code, which are nothing more than "machine words" and which are unintelligible to the great unwashed masses (myself included)? For the majority, there is no outrage, no call for protection from despotism and tyranny, since they have integrated the propaganda that to keep them "safe" they must yield their freedom to government."May 14 15:19
schestowitzthey needs to brineed to bring out documents. Last month, aided by Rupert Murdoch's Fox (which seeded all other articles), the NSA with General Alexander did a MASSIVE hogwash, denial, revisionism about the NSA's storage of data on all citizens. They are lying, they say that Binney and Drake are lying, and since we have no paper trail, the Murdoch propaganda reigns supreme, with hundreds of articles citing FoxMay 14 15:21

qu1j0t3  Jaron Lanier is a computer science pioneer who has grown gradually disenchanted with the online world since his early days popularizing the idea of virtual reality. “Lanier is often described as ‘visionary,’ ” Jennifer Kahn wrote in a 2011 New Yorker profile, “a word that manages to convey both a capacity for mercurial insight and a lack of practical job skills.”May 14 23:06
qu1j0t3Raised mostly in Texas and New Mexico by bohemian parents who’d escaped anti-Semitic violence in Europe, he’s been a young disciple of Richard Feynman, an employee at Atari, a scholar at Columbia, a visiting artist at New York University, and a columnist for Discover magazine. He’s also a longtime composer and musician, and a collector of antique and archaic instruments, many of themMay 14 23:06
