The Cockfish And The Conspiracy Theorists

A round up of today's posts from Bogart Blog:

Labour's Cockfish Reveals How Mainfesto Will Piss You Off.
All three main parties in the UK General Election are campaigning from a Politically Correct Consensus (i.e. Control Freak) platform. But when it comes to politically correct control freakery, the increasingly authoritarian Labour will always outdo the others. The main early thut of their campaign is a promise to criminalise sugary snacks and breakfast cereals, fatty foods and some fizzy drinks. And they're serious, they have handed the job of selling this idiocy to The Cockfish of British politics.

Charlie Hebdo: No Wonder There Are Conspiracy Theories
With a little distance between us and the Charlie Hebdo killings, questions remain unanswered and are likely to remain so. These questions inspire conspiracy theories, which in turn trigger authority worshippers to dismiss anyone who asks legitimate questions as 'right wing nut jobs'...

Economist: World Leaders Will Exploit Charlie Hebdo to Eliminate Internet Privacy
Economist Martin Armstrong warns that the twin attacks in France will be used by world leaders to push for restrictions on Internet privacy and the total elimination of encrypted communications. Armstrong writes that, “They are using this latest event precisely as they used 911 to strip us of all rights. David Cameron, PM of Britain, wants to block WhatsApp and Snapchat if he wins the next election, as part of his plans for new surveillance...

Millie Tant, Tatchell's Transphobia and Germain Greer's Big Hairy Smelly Vagina
The well of hypocrisy from which the left, champions of freedom, democracy, equality and free speech in their own estimation, draw their dishonest, self rightoeus views on the world is bottomless, it will never run dry. How else could it have continued to flow during this latest two-faced display of authoritarianism from the lovers of all minoities even when those minoritites hate each other. It is the multual hatred of minorities however that is fragmenting the left.

While the world has been looking the other way, Boko Haram has been conquering Nigeria

One story that has slipped away from us recently as we have tried to bring you a fair and balanced view of the Ched Evans With Hunt, the Charlie Hebdo terrorist attack, ships full of migrants abandoned in The Adriatic and the collapse of the Petrodollar amongs other catastrophe's that have happened, are happening or are waiting to happen, has been the progress of the Boko Haram rebellion in Nigeria.

Thought they were just another bunch of nutters who did a few kidnappings and a few bomb outrages and then went away did you. Well you thought wrong.

Boko Haram controls about 20,000 square miles of territory and is fast becoming a terrorist state razing villages and killing innocent victims

boko hram atrocity
The scene of yet another Boko Haram atrocity (source London Evening Post). People have complained this is a gut curdling image. We say it's justified, see final paragraph.
After days of razing villages and pitiless massacre, Boko Haram finished the first week of a new year week with its most horrifying atrocity to date.

As people bustled through the Saturday market in the Nigerian city of Maiduguri, a device borne by a ten year-old girl exploded near the entrance.

A witness said the girl probably had no idea that a bomb had been strapped to her body.

The explosion just before lunch killed 20, including the girl, and injured 18, according to the police.

Boko Haram did not immediately claim the attack, but the Islamic insurgents have increasingly used young girls as human bombs as they carve an African "Caliphate” from the plains of northern Nigeria.

Today, Boko Haram controls about 20,000 square miles of territory - an area the size of Belgium. Within this domain, the black flag of jihad flies over scores of towns and villages scattered across the neighbouring states of Borno and Yobe.

The latest conquest was the fishing town of Baga on the shores of Lake Chad, which fell to the Islamists last Wednesday.

We should not forget that last year our friend Little Nicky Machiavelli reported on a Wikileaks revelation that Boko Haram was yet another terrorist operaton funded, armed and trained by the American CIA

We agree it is a gut curdling image. I thought it was time to remind those still singing the praises of multiculturalism and uncontrolled immigration just what is waiting out there to be imported into our green and pleasant land. The politically correct though police will say it is not typical of Africa. True, in fact the Boko Haram scum aren't typical of Nigeria, I've read there are about 50,000 of them in a population if nearly 150 million. But that does not change the the fact that the terrorists are winning and Goodluck Jonathan's good luck has run out.

In The War On Terror, Freedom Is Not Winning


Nothing to do with the article but I liked it - Je Suis Charlie (source)


While we would like to write about more positive things, protecting democracy and free speech, guiding people towards healthy lifestyles, how we the punters can save the planet (especially from the idiocies of the Warmageddonist lobby) and so on, we find far too much of our time is spent trying to get the truth about important issues in front of readers. Mainstream media has abandoned news reporting in favour of simply repeating government and corporate propaganda. Terrorism is one issue on which you will only finds out facts from new media.

Why Iceland Recovery Is Being Ignored In Mainstream News

 

 Iceland is a small country with less that half a million people so is not a good comparison with Britain. It's recovery from near bankruptcy in the wake of the 2008 financial crisis however is due to the rejection of politically correct, globalist politics so in that light it serves to illustrate that to suggest Britain (60 million people) cannot survive outside the EU is just globalist scaremongering.

Follow the link and learn just why Iceland has recovered by severing its links with the European Union's bureaucratic dictatorship while other counties, Spain, Portugal, Italy and Greece foremost are still enmired in crisis and hamstrung by the membership of the European Monetary system (Euro)are unable to do the things needed to turn around their economies.

Why Iceland Recovery Is Being Ignored In Mainstream News

Oh, and a rather lovely thing about Iceland is the majority of Icelanders believe in Elves - they even feature on road signs (see above - although we cheated and superimposed English wording).

The Robotification Of Human Society Is being Implemented

the daily stirrer
A vision of transhumanism (source: redicecreations)


Are you ready to surrender your humanity to science, accept having computer chips implanted in your skull that will link your brain to the internet (via a Google server) and let your life be controlled by machines? That's what The Controllers are planning for you. Think of it, no taking a sick day off work and going to the beach or woods, no eating too much ice cream, no hooking ip with a totally inappropriate person for casual sex, or breaking speed limits just for fun. If you think being an automaton would be kool, think again ...


The Robotification Of Human Society Is being Implemented 

More on robotification:


When The Robots Rule The World

Economist and humanity hater (apparently) Paul Krugman takes up a subject that as a former Information Technology professional I have long been mildly concerned about. In these two blogs Futurism and Policy and The Conscience Of A Liberal) Krugman discusses the rise of robotics. How a big government authoritarian like Krugman can put a title that includes the words 'liberal' and 'conscience' to one of his justifications of economic Fascism is a testimony to the fact that you don't have to be either intelligent or even literate to be a university Professor


Transhumanism: The Elite's Agenda For Total Control
Robot lovers, indestrictible soldiers with no mercy or compassion, everlasting life for beings that are part human, part machine, genetically modified humans with supernatural strength and endurance competing in future 'hungrer Games' style Olympic tournaments: the plot of some dystopian novel? No, actual items in the elite's agenda for total control.


Why are scientists demaning human rights for non human robots
Human rights for robots? That's the craziest thing I ever heard, you might well be saying. but those unfailingly loony and dysfunctional fuckwits in the science academe are so convinced they can build machines (robots) with human attibutes they are demanding equal rights for animated tin cans. This over - the - top rant pusts a few things in perspective.

Transhumanism and Eugenics
We have said many times that the science community is at war with humanity. Scientists are out of control, evry day we hear of some new scheme to try to control nature, be it human nature or the climate. Given what we ought to have learned from all previous attempts to control nature we can only conclude that scientists are insane psychos willing to risk destroying life to show off how clever they are.

Transhumanism: Join The Resistance
Transhumanism, the creation of - or turning us into - part human, part machine cyborgs is generating a lot of discussion and a lot of spontaneous ejaculations in the scientific community as they contemplate having their brains replaced by a computer. There are no limits on the ambitions of scientists fantasies, they even envisage creating robots that can interbreed with us, but how much is realistic?

Transhumanism: They will get under your skin
We seem to be talking a lot about transhumanism, the process of turing us into human - animal or human -machine hybrids recently. The Daily Stirer thinks such technological visions are nothing more than the fantasies of sick minds, but politicians and corporate leaders, ever eager for more power and control, seem willing to stump up infintie funding.


Cellular Technology: Can Governments Use It To Rearrange Your Brain

The controversies around cellular technology and the cellular masts or towers that make up the network grids just will not go away. It is not just the issue of do cellphone damage brain tissue that concerns us now, but certain rumours about what might be transmitted from the masts into the electro-magnetic mush that surrounds us all.


Happily Ever After, You and Your Robot Fuck Buddy
It's one of those really bad ideas that scientists just can't seem to let go of (well male scientists that is). Just as they are covinced in a five years we will have computers that think like humans (although 50 years since it was first said, we are no nearer to that goal) so they like to insist every few years that in a few years we will all have meaningful relationships with robot fuck buddies

Slaves To The Machine
Some say technology is the new magic and are willing to believe every new gadget launched improves beyond recognition the lives of those who own one. Others say we are becoming slaves to our machines and losing the ability to think for ourselves as well as our social lives and cultural bonds.

It’s not just smart TVs. Your home is full of gadgets that spy on you
Smart television sets connect to the internet and it is both way data exchange. This blatant invasion of privacy is sold by claiming that on your spoken command your set can download programmes and films from content providers such as Netflix or catchup services BBC iPlayer. What the makers and network operators are not saying is that if the internet can be used to bring information into your TV, it can also be used to take it out.

Persecution Of Ched Evans: When Was Being A Scumbag Made A Crime?

by Arthur Foxake




Ched Evans - convicted, did his time, why can't the Screeching Sisters' hate mob lay off.


Sheffield United footballer Ched Evans was charged with rape, convicted and served his time. Now certain elements of society, the left wing, feminist screechers, the mentally castrated metrosexual males of the public sector, academia and the media leading them, want to deny him a chance to return to the game he played at professional level, yet when we look at the details of his crime, while Evans clearly acted like the lowlife spawn of a pox whore's scab lice, whether what he did was truly rape begins to look very debatable. Does he therefore deserve the witch hunt treatment to which he is being subjected. Let's put the screeching hysteria of the left wing lynch mob aside and look at the facts as established in the trial and conviction of Ched Evans.


The problem now you see is the facts have been swamped by the screeching of the hate mob. Several lower league football clubs have already been subjected to such intense media bullying that had pulled out of negotiations aimed at giving Evans a route back into the game that was his livelihood. Another club, Oldham Athletic is now getting the same treatment, an online petition with a claimed 20,000 signatures has been presented to club officials and several sponsors fearing a backlash have threatened to pull out if Convicted Rapist Ched Evans (the media have changed the footballer's name for him) is signed as a player by Oldham.


The first thing we should ask before proceeding to the actual rape is how many of those 20,000 signatures belong to genuine Oldham Athletic supporters. Very few, we suspect, if fact we would be willing to bet most have come from people who live in the London area and have very little interest in football. The people campaigning to prevent Convicted Rapist Ched Evans returning to the game are probably made up mostly of angry female Social Justice Warriors who are more likely to shave their chins than their legs like football about as much as they like UKIP, or metaphorically castrated male Social Justice Warriors.


These limp wristed fellows may have played football as boys but now, because they like shagging hairy legged, stubbly chinned plug ugly women, see it as a misogynistic, racist, disablist politically incorrect pastime played by Convicted Rapists, knuckle dragging thugs and wonderfully talented but unreconstructed African immigrants, watched by knuckle dragging, ignorant, working class thugs and a few women who only go to matches to
olge the black guys knobsadmire the talents of the African players.  Football is an illustration of why Britain such an threatening and intimidating environment for women, compared to enlightened societies like Somalia, Uganda, Saudi Arabia, Afghanistan and Tanzania. In all those enlightened places the (Western) Taxpayer funded National Heath Service will mutilate your daughter's vagina free of charge.


So that is a little background. Now we can move to the actual crime.


“Convicted Rapist” is the tag given to Ched Evans to suggest he was guilty of the very worst kind of sexual assault, the violent rape of a total stranger, perhaps even an under age girl. The facts paint a very different picture:


A few people in the media have been brave enough to risk the wrath of the screechers by actually referring to the facts (as recorded in court transcripts of the trial) Daily Telegraph columnist Allison Pearson (not a writer noted for support of the ISIS, The Taliban or other anti - feminist organisations. Pearson researched the case in forensic detail from the initial complaint to the trial and conviction. Here is an extract from her article:



   Sensitive readers should look away now. Footballer Clayton McDonald, a friend of Ched Evans, picked up a 19-year-old girl who was drunk at 4am, and went back to a hotel room with her. McDonald texted Evans: “I’ve got a bird.” McDonald and the girl then had sex. Evans turned up, and the court was told that the girl asked him to perform oral sex on her, which he did. Evans then had sex with the girl, whom he claimed was enjoying herself. A hotel porter said there was no sound of distress or cause for alarm. A few of the footballers’ charming mates showed up and filmed through a window. The next morning, Evans departed via an emergency exit. The 19-year-old awoke to find she was naked, with, she says, no memory of what had happened to her. That evening, she reported McDonald and Evans to the police.


If you think that is despicable behaviour on the part of Evans and his friend (who was not charged) I'd agree. The behaviour was appalling even to me, a man who had, according to serious studies, more that his share of casual sexual encounters when young. Sexual assault? Maybe, but it rather depends on your definition of 'capable of giving consent'. In another report the hotel night porter said the girl was very drunk and did not appear to know what she was doing on arriving. That is his personal opinion and probably a very sensible one. My point is a hotel porter is no more qualified than I or Evans to know if the girl was capable of giving consent, because there is no suggestion anywhere that she was screaming "HELP! RAPE!" as loudly as she could while any of the alleged acts were going on.


Personally, I’d hope, and experience suggests it is not a vain hope, that the 23 year old me would have thought in similar circumstances, "Hey, this isn't right, the girl's off her head." What I know for sure is that if one of my mates had phoned and said, "I'm in a hotel with a girl, d'you fancy coming round and we can give her a spit roasting," (look it up, the word plus 'sexual slang') call me old fashioned if you like possums, but I would not have been interested. More to do with my self respect or ego than anything else, in the same way as I could never have got my ego round the idea of paying a prostitute for sex.


But then forty something years later, after four decades of the amoral, anything goes morality advocated by the 'progressive left' in the past, attitudes have changed. And footballers are no longer likely lads with baggy shorts and brylcreemed hair who played for the local team in the town where they had been born and where their family lived.


The killer detail for me is about the girl having no memory of what happened to her? So what evidence was there she was incapable of giving consent, having gone to a hotel room with a man she had met only a few minutes before.


Going back to Allison Pearson's article, she writes that on being asked, asked the girls in her local beauty salon weren't nearly so convinced as all the leftie screechers screaming for Evans’s to be crucified.



    “Sounds to me like she woke up, realised she’d been dogging, felt really embarrassed about herself and called the police,” Hayley, aged 22 told Pearson. My wife, daughter and daughter - in - law agreed. Another commenter on the case said that lots of girls from her school went to posh London clubs to try and bag themselves the ultimate prize: a footballer, and would go to any lengths, even agreeing to a gang bang (footballers are fond of such group action, one sport psychiatrist has described it as sharing an erotic experience with team mates without compromising their macho credentials - I was never into team sports, all that bonhomie in the showers always seemed suspect to me).


Let's be honest, Ched Evans’s persecutors are not interested in facts or real justice mitigating circumstances, nor in points of moral principle. They just want a new target for their hatred of the working classes. A question that is bothering me however is: "Where was the moral outrage from the screechers when the Jay Report into systematic abuse of under age girls in the local authority care system by Pakistani men was published? One girl victim of the gangs had her tongue nailed to a table as a warning not to tell anyone that she had been gang-banged and yet the screeching sisters seemed to go into collective denial, launching hate attacks on anyone who tried to raise the question of why the police, officials and the local council did not act. Apparently demanding justice for white working class people is racism in the warped minds of these politically correct lunatics.

America's Food And Drug Administration U Turn On Daily Asprin


Daily Asprin not a good idea says FDA now (image Source The Liberty Beacon)


It's no secret that this blog and its associates are of the opinion that the medical professions are owned by the drug companies and thus their priority is corporate profit rather than patient's wellbeing.

For years many of us, particularly males over 50 have been badgered by our doctors and by government propaganda to take a daily does of asprin to prevent cardio vascular disease. senior health bureaucrats have even lobbied for laws mandating daily asprin.

So why the U turn, is it an admission that yet again, as with salt, as with saturated fats, as with cholestrol lowering drugs, the Big Pharma corporations, governments and their bought and paid for scientists have been peddling lies and junk science again?

via The Liberty Beacon:

FDA Reverses Position On Daily Asprin

If you haven’t had a heart attack, step away from the aspirin bottle… If you are one of the 40 million Americans who take an aspirin every day, you may want to heed the latest warning from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
After many decades of promoting aspirin, the FDA now says that if you have not experienced a heart problem, you should not be taking a daily aspirin—even if you have a family history of heart disease. This represents a significant departure from FDA’s prior position on aspirin for the prevention of heart attacks.
On its website, the FDA now says:
“FDA has concluded that the data do not support the use of aspirin as a preventive medication by people who have not had a heart attack, stroke or cardiovascular problems, a use that is called ‘primary prevention.’ In such people, the benefit has not been established but risks — such as dangerous bleeding into the brain or stomach — are still present.”

Incriminating video Of Prince Andrew To Blow The Establishment Apart?

Yesterday we reported sex slave allegations about Prince Andrew (or was it the day before, being a news blogger is so exciting at the moment one loses track) having been involved in the abuse and exploitation of a 'sex slave' kept by his friend, the American billionaire and convicted sex criminal Jeffrey Epstein.

Buckingham Palace was of course quick to broadcast fat Andy's statement that he totally denied the allegations, (and we were equally quick to quote that great line from the late Mandy Rice Davis on being informed, that a prominent Conservative politician Lord Astor had denied an affair with her, "He would, wouldn't he."

andrew-virginia
Andrew and Virginia, is it true he never met her? 

Back in the days when the lovely Mandy was a key figure in a political sex scandal, everybody naturally believed the establishment figure who "would, wouldn't he", now of course, with freedom of information law and The Internet always available to broadcast the minority report, and with fifty years of being lied to behind us, nobody (well except for a few power and authority worshipping lefties) believes politicians, mainstream media or members of the establishment.

And rightly so it seems. In spite of The Duke Of York's claim that he did not know his accuser, Virginia Roberts, still photos showing them together have emerged and rumours that a video recording made by Epstein of them 'together' (i.e. at it) exists.

All we can say is what a great start to the year. Bring it on.

Prince Andrew may have been secretly filmed with underage girl he is alleged to have abused


One thing we find iffy about this story however is the way it has been reported as a paedophile scandal. While the alleged abuse took place in Florida where the age of consent is 18, and Virginia Roberts was 17 at the time, no matter that a crime has been committed, or how repellent some people may find the idea of a 17 year old woman having sex with a man of 40ish, she was at the time a sexually developed young adult.

Let's concentrate on the sleazy company and was keeping, and the allegation that disgraced press baron Robert Maxwell's daughter Ghislaine took the role of madam at Epstein's Florida mansion, procuring girls for the wealthy and powerful. There is plenty of fun to be had from that.

2015 Will Be The Story Of China, Russia, Iran and The Petrodollar

If recent events are anything to go by, 2015 is set to be another year of 'interesting times' as China, Russia and Iran square up against the American bid for global hegemony and continue their efforts to see the US dollar dumped as the global reserve currency and the oil trading system known as The Petrodollar replaced by bilateral trades being settled in the currency of the vendor nation.

We don't know how this will turn out yet of course, but given the fragility of the US economy which is dependent on borrowing and already overburdened with debt (as we reported previously) the USA is not in such a commanding position as its leaders like to imagine. And given that Washington has pent the past twenty years progressively pissing off its natural allies, when push comes to shove that position may not actually be commanding at all.

As the BRICS, Russia, Brazil, India, China and South Africa form closer economic bonds and given that Iran is a long time ally of both Moscow and Beijing, there will undoubtedly be further moves towards the economic integration of Eurasia as the USA is increasingly isolated economically. This may not be apparent from anything you read of hear in Western Media, but while Europe's political union, the EU, remains committed to NATO and the USA, the swing towards anti European start up political movements across the member states and the scepticism shown by business leaders to the Obama administration's flagship trade treaties TTIP and TPP The complex geostrategic manoeuvres progressively undermining the hegemony of the US dollar as a reserve currency and, most of all, the petrodollar will continue, in fact the move to abandon The Petrodollar is likely to accelerate.

China faces immense challenges, but Beijing watchers report these are being approached with self-confidence of fully emerged economic superpower. President Xi Jinping and the his regime will keep investing heavily in the urbanization drive and the fight against corruption that exist from the highest levels of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP)to the lowliest local official. Internationally, the Chinese will step up their push for new overland and maritime 'Silk Roads' which will underpin the long-term Chinese strategy of unifying Eurasia with trade and commerce.

Global oil prices are likely to stay low as Obama, a man who does not learn from mistakes, continues to flood the market with oil from America's vast shale deposits in spite of oil companies being unable to sell the product at a profit in the current market conditions. Saudi Arabia and the OPEC counties will continue to ignore American demands for them to cut production. It is typical of Obama and the race obsessed amateurs he has packed his administration with that, intent on punishing Russia for protecting its own interests in Syria and Ukraine, they are inflicting more harm on their allies and their own people.

A nuclear deal between Iran and the P5+1 nuclear powers looks unlikely. If sanctions (actually economic war) against Iran continue to seriously hurt its economy, Tehran’s reaction will be to look for even more integration with Asia, not the West.

Washington is well-aware that a comprehensive deal with Iran cannot be reached without Russia’s help and yet The Rent Boy President continues to provoke Russian anger. A return to the “Bomb Iran” hysteria of the past would only suit the usual suspects who would profit from war. It is insane then that both Iran and Russia are now subject to US led Western sanctions. No matter how it was engineered, the fact that stands is that the current financial/strategic oil price collapse is a direct attack against (who else?) Iran and Russia and those nations are not going to sit back and absorb the pain forever.

Greens Will Not Become UKIP of the Left By Talking Bollocks

Let's face it, if people want to vote for politicians who talk bollocks they have three well established parties to choose from, Labour, The Conservatives and The Lib Dems.

A lot of people who are sick of politics as usual and aren't bright enough to see that UKIP are the only party with any chance of upsetting the politics as usual bandwagon in 2015 are hoping The Greens are poised to become the UKIP of the left. Well they're not if they carry on like this:
via Guido:
Speaking to the Economist, Green leader Natalie Bennett argued that being on benefits in the UK is worse than being one of India's 179 million people living below the poverty line:
"The world is sodden with stuff, it cannot have more stuff,” said Ms Bennett. Yet [the Greens] do not appear to have considered what her ideological purity would mean for milllions of the world's poorest people, almost none of whom live in Britain. When Bagehot suggested to her that there was a problem with this, Ms Bennett said <del>India? Who gives a fuck about ...</del> he was worrying too much: to be poor in India wasn't so bad as to be on benefits in Britain, she suggested, "because at least everyone else there is poor too”.
Well yeah, The Greens have more fruitcakes than UKIP, Labour and The Conservatives put together but what was she actually suggesting? See, people in China and India and Bangladesh and Indonesia, Philippines, Thailand, Nigeria etc. earn their living making cheap shoddy shite for us to consume. And if we stop consuming it, businessmen in those countries (where there is a much more brutal attitude to hiring and firing) will not pay anyone to make stuff.
military scrapyard

Who needs stuff when we could be helping a third world tyrant buy these? (Image Source)

And the poor people who depend on their £5 a day wages to feed a large family will starve. And The Greens and their supporters will be to blame. Simples, but then economic realities usually are simple when they are explained by a realist. But not by a leftie or a Green, apart from the fact these people are under the impression that 2+2=5 if some bloke with a PhD says so, they are quite happy for the poor to get poorer while the rich get richer, so long as the middle and working class are taxed to penury so that a left wing leader can give more 'development aid' to third world tyrants who will use it to buy obsolete planes, ships, tanks and long poles with nails through the end.
