Manifest Destiny Must Go Away

Washington Continues To Create Enemies

Three people that Washington hated; Ayatollah Khomeini of Iran, Fidel Castro of Cuba & Pedro Albizu Campos of Puerto Rico. What the three leaders had in common is that they stood up to American Imperialism and wanted independence for their people. 

Iran was under the influence of Washington and London through their proxy puppet the Shah, Cuba under Bastista and Puerto Rico under U.S. Military Governors prior to the creation of the Commonwealth by Puerto Rico's first democratically elected leader Luis Munoz Marin. 

What Americans fail to understand and realize is when they interfere in the personal affairs of other countries it usually backfires and causes hatred and distrust by the people of those sovereign countries. The United States government has no right to dictate to other countries what to do let alone try to assassinate, overthrow or influence the Democratic institutions of the countries. Let the people of those countries decide for themselves who they want to elect to represent them and allow democratic institutions to grow in order for those countries to prosper and create living wages, a good standard of living and a good quality of life.

American Right Wing Conservatives Destroying Our Democracy

United States Leads Towards Despotism

The erosion of American Democracy, since the election of Donald Trump I've seen many changes in our government and the union between corporation and state. Fascism has been embraced and racism has become tolerated and accepted as patriotic. When a society leads towards despotism respect towards the individual decreases. 

American Right Wing Conservatives have conditioned the masses that rich liberals own everything, the mass media and the wealth in the country and everything that the American People have worked hard for will be given away to illegal immigrants. 

When Americans quality of life goes down, wages go down they blame others and right now Hispanics are being blamed for the decline of the standard of living and the unemployment. Trump has united the American People against Hispanics, Muslims, Liberals, Gays, Jews etc that they are cause of the country's problems. 

Slowly our institutions are breaking apart in favor of Fascism and Corporatism and no matter what Trump or the Far Right says they don't believe in civil rights or civil liberties, they don't want protections for minorities or for workers they only answer to the Corporations. 

Our constitution speaks against the establishment of corporations why are they allowed? Why are corporations influencing our government, laws, education and health care? Why is it that no candidate or politician speaks against the evil of corporations? Because Fascism controls our current system and any criticism is seen as unpatriotic and Un-American. Its a real problem where criticism of despotism is seen as unpatriotic. That shows how Americans have unconsciously embraced Fascism without realizing and that's dangerous to our country and our democracy.

Coronavirus: New Plague of 21st Century

Coronavirus: New Menace To Society

This year began in a very interesting way, we almost had WW3 when President Trump decided to assassinate Gen Solemeni of Iran in Iraq and there were heighten tensions with Iran and afterwards this mysterious virus out of China starts infecting people left and right and people started dying like flies then it spread to other parts of Asia then to Europe and the rest of the world.

What is the Coronavirus? Where did it come from? And why are people scared of it?  The Coronavirus according to the WHO and CDC is a respiratory virus that infects the lungs and causes major lung damage to the point that people cannot breathe and people just die from the lack of oxygen. The virus has been linked from two sources a Bat that passed along the virus to the Pangolin and it passed on to humans through the consumption of Pangolin Meat. 

In China there was a lucrative market for Wildlife both legal and illegal, since the 1970s China made many economic reforms where people were able to buy and sell Wildlife and many people raised many animals for its meat and for traditional Chinese Medicine. The Wet Markets that China had weren't up to code in hygiene, many of these animals were boxed as sardines in a can in cages many of them in very deplorable conditions, many of these animals were sick, many died being in those cages and the people handling these animals weren't using the proper safety guards such as masks or gloves and many of those workers got sick. 

The Coronavirus is the biggest plague and deadliest disease in the 21st Century because of the magnitude of the severity of this disease. It's highly contiguous to the point that people have to self quarantine and people can be near each other or touch each other. 

It's also had an economical impact as well, many non essential businesses have shut down putting millions of people out of work, social ramifications people cannot be outside in large numbers due to risk of infection and the people suffering the most are the elderly, people with pre-existing conditions and the homeless. 

Because of greed and selfishness of others millions of people are paying for this virus many with their lives, the immoral and unethical treatment of animals and the cruelty these animals have been facing for the consumption of their meat is beyond appalling. I believe the Chinese Government has realized too late what this virus has done and it could lead to their downfall if they don't get their act together. 

I believe this virus will unite people both enemies and allies to fight a common cause against a common enemy, Coronavirus knows no borders, race, creed, political affiliation or economic status or caste its affecting everyone. We are all human beings and God's children and now we will be judged how we treat one another. 

Blasphemy Laws or Freedom of Speech?

Blaspheme or Not To Blaspheme?

Blasphemy Laws, what are they? and why do they exist? Many countries in the developed world we have freedom of speech where people can express themselves freely without fear of persecution from the law. But in many countries there are laws on the books called Blasphemy Laws which criminalizes speech against religion, dogma and holy books i;e Bible, Quran, Torah etc. 

Many countries practically in the Islamic World and Autocratic Countries like Russia where there is a national church, many Religious Extremists have used the Blasphemy Laws to prosecute people they don't like or to deter free speech by calling it hate speech. Many innocent people are in prison right now and many have been executed because they simply choose to criticize religion or simply question it. I am a religious person by faith and I believe in what the bible says is true but I also believe God gives free will to people he doesn't force people to love him or to worship him and people should be free to be religious or not religious if they choose to and people have the right to criticize religion even if it's blasphemous. 

We don't live in the dark ages anymore and we need to move past from what we think is acceptable and what is not acceptable. Many Religious Extremists that hold a lot of influence want to induce governments to be on their favor and restrict freedom of speech based morality and religion but they are not doing it because they love God or want to be an example its about having control on others.

Anti-semitic Canard

Antisemitic Canard, Jews who exploit it.

Finished watching a episode of Focus On Israel and they had a panel on Antisemitism they had Rabbi Analia Bortz who's is the director of  Shalom Hartman Institute in Jerusalem, Israel and there was a Roman Catholic Priest and another Rabbi. I liked the way Rabbi Bortaz spoke that Judaism and Jews don't believe in a superior race nor do they believe they are better than others, the other Rabbi whom I believe was Modern Orthodox I did not like at all, he believes that the world looks at Jews as oppressors, neocolonialists and promoters of western capitalism and markets. 

I hate to say but many Jews haven't made the world a better place both Religious and Secular and it has to do with the way Jews view and treat Non-Jews, because of Jews instinct to survive many Jews have become very successful and highly educated people unfortunately instead of being humble and being an example to the nations many Jews have become arrogant, racist, xenophobic, elitist and greedy thinking they are superior to others and others have to serve them hand and foot, what does that cause? it causes a backlash and every time there is a backlash it causes Jews to get more paranoid and more suspicious and more racist towards Non-Jews especially towards Hispanics and Blacks. 

If Jews really want to make Antisemitism go away completely they need to change the way they look at others not use and take advantage of Non-Jews, to show love and compassion and most of all to see Gentiles as equals and to give to poor people especially towards minorities that will help a lot in decreasing hatred and tension or else it will only get worse for them.

Trump Acquitted of All Impeachment Charges

Trumpism Has Triumph

I am dumbfounded and shocked but at the same time not surprised that Trump was acquitted of all charges, the Republicans are very desperate to keep him in power because for one they currently control the Senate and number two they need him to pass a lot of bills that only the President can sign to make it into law. 

The trial was a farce because no witnesses were called to testify and the judge refused to listen and hear evidence of many violations that Trump did such as abuse of power, corruption, bribery, obstruction of justice and acting as an agent to a foreign government i;e Russia, Putin etc. American Democracy lost and it was Russia not the people of the United States that acquitted Mr. Trump of all charges. 

We are already have come a "Flawed" democracy and Trump has merged the union between Corporation and State and our country has embraced Fascism and cult of personality that the Republicans, Evangelicals and White Nationalists have created around Trump. We are almost a dictatorship and political opponents are being attacked as enemies of the people and of the state.

It's Official: U.K. has left the EU

Brexit has officially happened where will Johnson take Britain Next?

It's Official: U.K. has left the EU, What does it mean for Brexit? 

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson got his wish, U.K. has left the E.U. and the country is now facing a dilemma will they lose prestige and become a pariah in the shadow of EU? or will Britain gravitate towards the U.S. and in Trump's orbit? 

Britain since World War II has lost influence and power in the world especially since the British Empire broke and gave independence of its colonies, Scottish and Northern Irish Nationalists agitating for independence the U.K. itself is in danger of breaking apart into separate countries similar to the Soviet Union and that would further weaken an already weaken economy and the future of Monarchy once the Queen passes. 

Many people are divided in Britain over Brexit, many support it because they want Britain to regain its former prestige while others believe that Britain will isolated from Continental Europe that is already a strong political bloc with a bigger economy, a stronger currency and its held together by Germany which is the strongest economy of Europe and yields tremendous influence over the continent. 

Finalization of Brexit comes to a close on December 11 of this year so Johnson has to come up with a economic plan on how to restructure the economy, in what direction the country will go and will Britain remain on friendly terms with the EU while being on good terms across the Atlantic with the U.S. and curbing China's influence into the EU's politics.

Who knows only time will tell what will happen from here on out and if Boris Johnson will go down as Britain's savior or as Britain's Gorbachev.
