Think Of It This Way

Reading Between The Intelligentia Minds

 

From what I can discern about the AP investigation by the Justice Department,

the identities of the undercover intelligence operatives may have been compronised.

It would be OK if this was accidental in nature done by the AP.

If the leakage was intentional, then the AP personage is a mole.

Don’t print this, don’t even discuss this, I am only guessing. :lol:

Is The IRS Really That Powerful?

 

Word from the Americans is that their IRS is very powerful.

I fail to see their point.

There could not be any hold on the people that the IRS could do

if the American citizens are dutifully paying their taxes.

No  investigation of any kind will the IRS subject any American citizen if his tax declarations are accurately and correctly submitted.

I fail to see the logic in the statement that the IRS is very powerful.

If the IRS really did some selective and malicious scrutiny of certain groups, I may not call this an exercise of power but an abuse of power.

Changing the topic, as if what follows is not relevant,  the Tea Party that was initiated by the Bostonians in centuries past was really an act of refraining from paying taxes.

They dumped the tea overboard to protest the English King’s imposition of taxes to the colony.

History repeats, eh?

The AP APPrehension

 

The AP investigation by the Justice Department to determine whether there was a crime in the leakage of some secrets of the US government which is considered by Washington as a serious act and detrimental to the security of the American people.

The AP is what we factly call the associated Press, which is one epitome of news information gathering and exchange  between the press networks. The people of the media consider this investigation as a violation of the freedom as guaranteed by the Constitution. They are up in arms because this method of investigation may turn out to be routinary procedures of preventing news information from getting out to the Press.

We might call this supposedly ordinary and normal procedure as the AP APP  in Windows 8 lingo. :lol:

(it appears that the media people cannot stand the type of scrutiny that they subject other people to when ferreting out the news ever so diligently)

The Question of Syria

 

The Syrian conflict now obtaining is one that pits Muslims against Muslims. This is nothing new. It was and still is the basic conflict between the Iraqis, and was originally between Iraqis and Iranians. It is a conflict that springs from the interpretation of the Koran, between the Sunnis and the Shiites.

Religious conflicts between denominations are nothing new to history. The Christian denominatios were and still is in conflict, although bullets are not exchanged between them, simply words are traded in the form of argumentation.

The Muslim conflict within its denominations is unique in that there are extremists among them, extremists that resort to violence instead of arguments.

The one religion that do not war against each other’s denominations is Judaism, although I should point out that the differences between each “denomination” are very slight and that the Jews are in fact, in solidarity because they face extreme hatred and violence from the Muslims.

Now what would be a very good excuse to get involved in the Muslim Conflict?  Is it not better to leave them alone so that they would be kept busy fighting each other and thus refrain from plotting the next attack on New York?

Bracketed again?

 

It appears that the City Of New York is again the target for terrorism.

Terrorism which is home-grown, not foreign-born.

It would most probably be safer for the homeland to envigorate the much-hated racial profiling.

Damn the international opinion.

The Syrian Question

 

Every country in the West wants the Syrian president, Assad, to go down. every country except Russia, and maybe China.

But why do the western countries want to depose assad? Would it be because Syria would be more democratic if assad is gone? Would it be that the West believes that Iran would also go democratic should assad fall? Would it be because of the oil supply>? But why would Russia believe that assad is favorable as an ally?

Assad is not one who would advocate terrorism. In fact, the bulk of the rebels that are against his reign are terrorists.

Again, calling from the experience against the mujahedin in Afghanistan and with the Chechens in Chechnya, Russia would rather have his borders secure from the entry of what may be termed as the troublesome  muslims. And so goes with China. It has “cleansed” its borders of non-productive Tibetan monks, and the secretive falun gong. Verily, it has something to do with external and internal security.

But why do the West want a new government to replace Assad’s?

The West can afford to let go of Assad even if he effectively blocks terrorist movements, because Syria is not amongst the borders of the Western countries.

It may be true that Assad is a detriment to the progress of western interests. Up to now, these interests have not been clarified to the rest of the world.

If there would be any western country that the Assad regime would adversely affect, it would be any of those in Europe or the Middle East, or the Balkans, not any of the  Americas.

What form of agreement would the Russians strike with the Western countries? This form of agreement would be the next Syrian question.

Accomplices go Scot Free

 

This is odd! The castro brothers are being let off the hook. They must have known for ten years that their brother had kidnapped and molested and battered three girls. Why did they not tell the police about him, knowing thet the police is searching for the lost girls!

This is not the same treatment that was given the two Kazakhstanis who are Dzhokhar’s friends.

The police dropped the ball for ten years and now they do not want to scoop the ball back. Ain’t that a shame? None on the blotter, eh?

(tipaningmayaiputansanangmaya)  whatever that means!

Time-Lapsed Bombing

 

As was admitted by Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, the bombs were supposed to be actvated on July 4th, Independence Day. Now what could have sped up  the timetable?

He said the bombs were finished ahead of time. How then was the timetable laid down?

The bombs, I guess, were to be finished once they have enough powder to make them potent. There could not be a sooner timetable if they were to collect firecracker powder. They must have received a more potent gunpowder to use in the pressure cookers.

Received from whom? Did Tamerlan order the gunpowder? And where was it shipped from? Bombs made from fertilizer are more explosive, musket gunpowder may do, although…..

But I am guessing again that the timetable for exploding the bombs were set ahead of schedule because of the untimely arrival of the gunpowder.

The Texas Explosion Spin

 

It may seem that I am on a roll, devilishly, that is.

The moment that they knew about the Boston Marathon Bombings, some particularly well-concerned and knowledgeable citizen came out to check whether there are missing fertilizer compunds in that Texas fertilizer  factory. Since fertilizers are known to be of a greater percentage in composition among the more destructive improvised bombs, he came out to inspect the storage area. Unwittingly, his light, whatever it was that he used to see through the dark, ignited a portion of the area and booom, the whole kaboodle went up in a loud bang.

This is all because he knew that bombs are made from fertilizers plus some other components.

Now that is one of my long guesses about the things that go boom in the States.

Another one was my long, long shot about the Boston Marathon bomber moving around in a wheelchair.

If there was only a single bomber and there were two explosions, it is a good guess that the bomber would carry two bombs not on a backpack but in a wheelchair. These have good, covered compartments wherein two bombs could be concealed.

See what I mean?

Three More Suspects Arrested

 

And so goes the Broken, er, the Breaking News from all TV Stations.

And I thought they had one suspect in custody and another killed already.

Are they trying to put up a smokescreen on Tamerlan’s motive that he was cheated of an olympic career? Nah, just kidding. They don’t cheat on sports, not like the Canadian women’s soccer players do.

At any rate, I am going to play the Devil’s Advocate again on this particular post. I feel that everytime I do, things get rattled off faster than necessary.

The three are Dzhokhar’s close friends, as if he had more friends in this town. One is an American citizen and the other two are from Kazakhztan. These three gave false statements to the Police. The American will receive a light charge and the other two may get prison terms and/or be deported.

Tamerlan’s wife, an American converted to Islam, will be taken off the suspect’s list.

But here’s the rub—–the two Kazakhs will be charged as conspirators for being loyal to their friend, Dzhokhar.

Naturally, what would one expect? Between Dzhokhar and the people on the street whom they do not know and don’t care about, the Kazakhs would be loyal to a friend, at the spur of the moment. This is one effort to help a friend. Unfortunately, this was not the time for lying to help a friend, according to the police.

 

All the people of Boston, and all of the country, believed that at  the first suspicious sign, they should have talked and turned Dzhokhar in. This is what may be called a wolf’s logic, meaning what is good for the pack is bad for the prey. What lies behind this logic is the tragic flaw of  listening only to music which are ours and not to music which are theirs.  Maybe the fault lies in not listening to them at all.

Musing over Tamerlan’s words, “I have no American friends. I do not understand them.’

And so the Devil may say, “Why should I be patriotic to a country of which I am not a citizen, not even a friend?”

(God forbid more bombings like this!)

Dead Bomber’s Motive

 

The dead Boston Maraton bomber, Tamerla Tsarnaev, was discovered to be a boxer and his aspirations for being into the Olympic competition was frustrated because he was not an American citizen. He believed that the denial of his citizenship was rigged so that the boxer whom he  beat would be the one to be chosen for the Olympics.

I do not know about them, but I frankly believe that this denial of citizenship was enough of a motivation to do what he did. It may not be enough to motivate him to kill, but it certainly would be enough to motivate him to radicalize his beliefs and fall back to Islam.

Tamerlan believed that he was cheated, and this changed his overall attitude inside the country.

Tsarnaev “Talks”

 

Second bombing suspect, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, actually is unable to talk because his windpipe may have been damaged.

He responds, though, and makes scrolls, as replies, on a notebook.

Insinuations that he may have tried to commit suicide by shooting himself in the neck is ridiculous. Besides, he surrendered, didn’t he?

Some interest again should be put on the owner of the hijacked vehicle.

He may have something  that would make this case very interesting!

BTW, did Dzhokhar admit that he dun the bombing himself?

We should be more transparent now, shouldn’t we?

There is a thin line between interpretations of  “building a case” and “justifying a capture”,  eh?

The former, however, is done AFTER the capture.

While the latter is done BEFORE the capture.

(I guess he won’t be able to “sing” against his accomplices if he had any)

Tarry A While…..

 

“Tarry a while”, says Portia in “Shalespeare’s Merchant of Venice.

And thusly do I say it here. While I apologize for damping your euphoric spirits in celebrating the capture of bombing suspect #2, there are some bothersome questions that remain to be answered.

I did write something about Red-Blue fatal mistakes that caused the deaths of children from police guns(click on Tales From The Hip category on the right pane of this site), this one just may make the same grade, although there appears to be a lot of circumstantial evidence that could pin down the suspects of the bombing acts. These evidence can be planted, you know, and things will go on smoothly as if it were convenient to go on as normal.

Why did the suspects run? Similar to the Red-Blue short story that I wrote and posted here, they ran because they were scared. Who wouldn’t be scared to know that the whole law enforcement force of the state is going after you for a scalping.

Comes now their Dad who has come to Boston to argue that his sons were framed. If this country is truly a country bent on laying down justice, the citizens should listen to him as he makes his case. After all, and as I pointed out, there is no positive proof that the two laid down the bombs themselves.

Furthermore, if I were running away from the law for something that is very serious a crime, I would not tell anybody, paricularly the owner of a car that I am trying to carjack, that I am the Boston Marathon Bomber. Not that way of expressing it anyway. I would simply say that I am in a hurry so get out of the car or I will shoot you.

 I know how it would feel as a father who knows his sons could not have done such a thing. So let us be fair and listen to Dzokhar’s Dad first and the prosecutors next.

This will not be the first time that evidence is fabricated, no?

( and maybe they should move Dzhokhar to another hospital, eh?)

No Positive Proof

 

 If the photo below is what made the FBI believe that Suspect #2, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev,  set the pressure cooker bomb, they have some explaining to do. They said so on public tv that they have proof of Suspect #2  actually put down the bag. How many backpacks does Dzhokhar have to carry, anyway. The photos show that he is carrying only one.

At least it will not be the best evidence presentable in court.

In truth, Suspect #2, Dzhokhar, appears to be just pasing by. And he just does not seem to be in a hurry to walk away.

Muskets

 

 Muskets! That’s what remind me of white smoke. Blunderbuss, cannons and other muzzle loading weapons using gunpowder emit white smoke.

Far from cordite and trinitrotouloene, gunpowder used in muskets burn with incomplete combustion.

Now who the heck would still be using this is anybody’s guess.

I’m guessing again.
