A swarm of drones ___ as it is the sacred land of Arabia___lets call them "Ababeels" come from south or wherever (neither US Americans nor Saudi Arabians are able to figure out where did they come from)___but of course they came from Iran___ and take revenge of kids going to school and what a revenge! they do not kill their kids but hurt them at their most vulnerable part i.e. their black gold and in doing so take away the 5% of the world oil supply and oil prices increase a whopping 20%.
Yemenis a few days back showed off their new weapons
and Khamenei confirmed that they are supporting Yeminis and warned MBS et al. But if only the clown prince was really a worthy crown prince.
Rouhani had said if we don't export no one exports.
And so in the context of all this, Saudis, if they want to keep their Audis (low class trolling), have no option but to surrender in front of meagre Yemenis (Houthis) and pay huge reparations for this war and BTW next time make better decision in buying defence equipment not the crappy patriots especially when Putin himself is offering the "better" equipment:
Few days back we came to know that Putin offered hypersonic weapons to Trump as well. This is called high class trolling hahahahaha
12th of July 2019 I went for Friday prayers after a long time. This highly (un)likely event happened because a number of factors culminated in me ending up on that day and time to this local mosque in Canada. I was reluctant and I was hesitant. Consider it that Neo after all realizing that matrix is real still takes the blue pill! I was hesitant also as I had to further postpone my very urgent project of fixing the dresser drawers of my daughter who had told me a number of time and then had stopped asking me because she didn't want to disengage me from my other stuff. But this time I had to do it right away after finding how much difficulty this problem was giving to her as she was unable to rightly organize her things in a comfortable manner.
So I went and so the Friday sermon started, orated by a young lad with fine English and Canadian dialect. I really hoped and prayed that I get to hear something worth paying attention too because as a keen follower of geo politics where you get high doses of dopamine, when you read the next tweet from the Trump tower who is watching over a collapsing empire, to Russia selling S400 to Turkey and Iran shooting down US drone. So you are desensitized to anything of low intensity cheap humour or just small talk. It is like after cocaine you want heroine not hashish.
Being there I prayed (how ironic) for something useful as my little boy whom like my other children I am constantly shielding from what the crazy world is throwing at them by always making them think and critique what just doesn't make sense. And that raised the stakes by an order of magnitude as I hoped that he listens to something useful and something that doesn't impure his so pure humanistic thoughts and logical reasoning. But my worst fears came true.
The sermon started and pearls of wisdom started trickling one after the other. There were many but what struck as the last nail in the coffin was when he said something like this:
The first thing of all the things that Almighty made was a pen
the first thing
the very first
a Pen
And then he told the pen to write down everything that we see in this world
and the Pen wrote down as it was commanded to it (or him who knows)
Pen wrote down everything each and every detail
every minute detail
detail about what will happen
So dear fellows everything is written
whatever you do in this world is written
your coming to mosque was written (lol at that moment he directly addressed me I guess)
something good happen it is written something bad happen it is written...
It went on and on but what this young lad in his fine English was trying to get to was that if something bad happens. It happens because it is written and there is will of Almighty in it. So you should not despair and should not go astray.
I came back finished the remaining work of fixing my daughters furniture and thinking and pondering and wondering if other people were thinking the same...but doesn't matter I just looked at heavens and Lord and I both rolled our eyes.
But my day ended on a good note I met my father and told him the story and he promptly conjectured in punjabi "tu Odey kole bedha sein".
Couple of days back I was on my way to drop off my daughter to her school. For the past 3 years this has been my morning ritual. I get in the car turn on CBC metro morning hosted by Matt Galoway and start zigzagging and cursing and honking and violating right lane exit only and also showing V signs, taking way from schmucks to giving way to deserving and smart people.
Matt Galoway is amazing...and Ana Maria Tremonti, who comes after him sucks!...she is so full of herself and so full of her empty Canadian hoopla. Matt though is different story I feel with him in good company and I think whole Canada respects him and feels the same.
As we know we are now deep into Ramazan and Matt invited a Muslim restaurant owner who was giving free food to anyone who came to him. Matt starts with laying a field of roses for him. I do not remember the exact words but it was something like this: so tell us why are you doing this? It must be because for muslims it is a time to reflect and helping others and sharing and festivity. This must be why you are giving free food.
This was a perfect setup for Muslim Mr restaurant owner and he could have built on this premise and so I eagerly waited for an answer bringing 80% of my perception sensors to listen to the answer and that was very risky as those perception sensors are usually needed to avoid all the driving mistakes of my own and of others usually lady drivers and sometimes of some weird ass holes in their Tercels, Versas and CRVs and who are trying to navigate to their clerical jobs in well banks and insurance companies.
But only if wishes were horses, beggars would ride! The muslim Mr restaurant owner says
"O no its not that we do fasting so we could feel how hungry feel when they are hungry....
No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No.
I can debunk this myth with one single question:
Does it really take you to become hungry in order to feel how hungry feel?
In fact a 2nd one if fasting makes you feel how hungry feel when they are hungry, do you feel how rich feast when you break your fast?
Well I will add another one FYI: why there are hungry in the first place?
But this is all the explanation given by 99.9999% Musalmaans of the world.
So Mr restaurant owner giving free food to the needy, and all the other Mr and Ms Muslims let me explain the purpose of fasting
Fasting is a tradition
Fasting is for health reasons
Fasting is to make your routine in sync with nature: you rise up with the sun rise and you finish up your day with sunset
Fasting is a must only for those to whom only health allows!
For the last one let me take it to the next level if your health allows you to fast for one meal that's a fast too (wink wink thats me these days), if it allows for two meals with minimum food intake so your head doesn't go bonkers when you are doing your labour intensive or even less intensive day routine.
and lastly fasting is a month of festivities so go crazy in partying!
So there you are: Be wise Muslims it is very important especially when you are given a chance to speak :(.
So Najam Sethi did a very important analysis where he discussed macro geo political situation surrounding Pakistan.
The very situation, about which Zardari also has hinted often in his interviews the "international situation" and probably one of the reasons he is quite happily watching Mr Khan fail in every step he is taking. When I see IK now I see a totally uninterested chap who is longing for good old days. He is a hostage of his title so careful what you wish for. See here how he shakes hand with this IMF Chief, "a lady" enough said:
I am pretty sure establishment must be wishing for BB now to get them out of this quagmire!
But I get distracted, Sethi Sahib quiet openly explains the dire situation Pakistan has gotten itself into and it gives tremendous pain for someone who was born there and spent a precious time of life, looking at what awaits Pakistan and how foolishly Pakistanis have sleep walked into a mess for which only them are to blame.
In my opinion the situation that Pakistan right now facing, is directly related with the over all lack of understanding and lack of right education and not judging things on reason and logic especially of the educated brass. One of the great example of that is that we believe in things like Jesus 2nd coming and the big Ghazwa -e-Hind. Enough said no more examples needed.
Even in this case, this interview, gives some pointers about the thought process of the 99% populace in Pakistan. This is first of all apparent from the emotions, appearance and occasional one word analytic additions by Osama, Najam Sethi host.
Though Osama is overall doing a great job in interviewing Sethi as he lets him complete his sentences and that gives a good flow of the interview but in this particular instance (I am dissecting this interview due to its particular importance in my view) at one occasion he says something that reflects a peculiar psyche and the thought process of that 99% populace of Pakistan and that I explain now. In the interview at one point Sethi mentions that in Venezuela there is a leftist government. To that Osama interjects with the word communist, but Sethi quickly corrects well leftist and they move on. I am pretty sure with that, Sethi understands he doesn't know what communist/communism is. This is for me a big billboard about Pakistan: In Pakistan people think left is communism and communism means those how are atheists and full stop. A general stupidity of folks in Pakistan. As we proceed Osama is spell bound hearing the gravity of the situation and he ends the program with a little prayer for the survival of Pakistan. I think he is right in that a little prayer now is the only thing we can do about Pakistan.
Similarly in one of my whats app group a member posts a video of a person where this person is stuck for the last 6 hours in a traffic jam and ultimately Pakistan army comes and manages the situation and traffic starts flowing again and he is justifying that with a rant that all civilians are inefficient and its the army that are the best people and everyone who thinks otherwise is Phen-ke-Pinney (a slur that i can feel what it means but don't know what it means as I myself have heard it first time). However, I thought, dude when army is controlling the whole country it was in fact inefficient on their part that it took them 6 hours to come and fix the mess! And I unwittingly continued with the slur PhenkePinney lol.
But why is this important?
Reason and logic are very important as they help you decipher the situation and bring out the truth from a pile of lies. 99% of people in Pakistan are sold some crap in mosques and schools that they keep buying no questions asked.
This quagmire that Pakistan is into now is a result of many decision that were not based on reason and logic. For example sometimes it was mistake of not having good relations with Soviet Union, because well they were communists and all the communists are atheists, which for some reason is a biggest Gunnah that easily translated to Zia ul Haq becoming hand in glove with yankees and helping mujahideen! This amazing theory made perfect sense to many in Pakistan.
After Soviets withdrew it was the strategic depth with the help of Taliban that culminated in a U turn and stabbing the very Taliban in the back and helping yankees in attacking Afghanistan.
Sometimes it was hijacking elections to sometimes it was murdering your prime ministers. It is for this reason Osama does not understand the difference between left and communism and it is for this reason the guy stuck for 6 hours in traffic praises the military that is 6 hour late in managing the traffic and it is for this reason Pakistan cannot come up with a right choice going forward.
Ah the right choice forward!. While it is understood that there are not enough good enough examples to look at and learn or copy from as countries like South Korea, Japan and Germany do not have an independent foreign policy and have to obey their masters in Washington. But yet there is one example of country that we can easily imitate and that is North Korea.
Lets see how. North Korea may be the most sanctioned country in this world, but yet they do not have to go to IMF. They must have devised ways to survive and trade for sure takes place via many hidden channels.
This is the view of North Korea at night from space. When I see this I see nothing wrong with that. If you want to conserve energy you better get your work sorted out during day light. Then North Korea has based her survival on Nuclear deterrence and this is why they are not willing to give up their nukes especially to yankees whom Russians call as "not agreement capable" people. This is how they continue to survive as by doing so there expenses to run a country are bare minimum and no amount of sanctions can alter their will and subdue their resolve. In fact all the countries who achieved Nuclear deterrence have done that and now all their research in defence is in R&D to develop new weapons only to export to other countries.
Pakistan is in much better position than North Korea. For a long time Pakistan was a net exporter of grains fruits and vegetables. We are and were an agrarian society. We have to get back to that. We do not need nice cars and cool electronic gadgetry we gotta stop all these foolish imports and become self sustaining in food and agriculture.
As for defence we have nukes. When Pakistan did the nuclear detonations, Dr A Q Khan the founder of Pakistan Nuclear Bomb said the defence of Pakistan is now impregnable. That was the moment for the citizens of Pakistan to stop the foolish arms race and expenditures on defence. Convert the 80% armed forces to reserves and save 80% expenses in this way. spend the remaining 20% on on duty personnel and on R&D to deliver nukes if and when need be. This is the nuclear deterrence doctrine on which North Korea has based her survival
This is the only choice we are left with to avoid begging to IMF for few million dollars and by doing so be the scum of international community.
This is though too far fetched to wish for. The consequences of the over all lack-of reason and logic has reached its critical mass and now Pakistan will be kicked around by the street thugs in the endgame that has already started and so sitting here from far away I will watch with great pain how the end game of Pakistan unfold and how Pakistan self destructs.
Taliban will not listen to Pakistan for one simple reason they have nothing to lose. IMF will only give some petty cash to Pakistan unless Pakistan agrees to supporting and agreeing to American demands related with Afghanistan and Iran and they in my view are destined to attack Iran. This is about their, Americans own survival. They cannot have a country like Iran dictate terms to them and they cannot have China succeed with their belt and road initiative. By Attacking Iran they will extend maybe for few decades their empire and contain China. Pakistan is just scrap material that would be recycled to build some new useful product. This is the reality and i am not saying that Najam Sethi is saying that and what is left for Pakistan is to say a little prayer and hope for the best. Meanwhile I am going to watch the Endgame.
I wrote about some of the most evil women America is blessed with but where there is evil there is good and good always "Trumps" evil.
America no doubt has many brave women but lately these three women are spearheading the resistance against the most powerful mafia in the world, called the US government . Solutes!

I remember well in dec 2017 a terrorist attack by ISIS was foiled in Saint Petersburg Russia by the Russian GRU (the renamed KGB). The most interesting part was that the Putin thanked CIA in a call to Trump as they tipped them off for this.
2017 was the year when Russian SUs and Kaliber cruise missiles were making minced meat out of the ISIS and many were scurrying away into neighbouring countries including Russia.
There is no secret that ISIS is a CIA creation. Proof abound lets not waste time on that (Hillary Clinton personally managed the transfer of weapons from Libya to Syria.)
So CIA=ISIS meaning they aborted their own operation!
Thank you indeed!
We all know that suicide attacks are the main weapon of choice for ISIS and in the past 10-15 days much has happened in South East Asia:
a suicide attack in Iran kills more than 2 dozen soldiers
Saudi Arabia and gulf states are bankrolling Pakistan economy
a similar suicide attack kills over 2 dozen soldiers in Kashmir
Its the economy stupid:
For me this is all related to failing capitalism. It is no secret also how US makes money out of wars:
US Banks/Corporation--need->WAR/Chaos--created by->CIA--together with->Saudi Arabia--provides foot soldiers->Wahabi Islam--->ISIS--->suicide bombings--->War/Chaos--Profit->US Banks/Corporation
or: see this
After 2008 crisis it has been 10 full years and as Marx describes how the economic crisis cycle repeats in a capitalist economy.
and so
2000 market crash: the dotcom crash
2008 market crash the real estate crash
2018 ...
2019...
so in 2019, we are now overdue!
If you look at major economies they are all slowing down:
USA: Major issues with debt and an overall slow economy and hence the trade wars. Fracking is failing and this is why the US now wants to invade vulture Venezuela to stay in business
China: a slowing economy
Europe is deeply political and financial troubles.
The US is the most vulnerable country in the world right now and it is on artificial life support (QE i.e printing money i.e bonds sale). US has a huge MIC that relies on a permanent war.
To avoid the coming economic collapse US want to delay it by triggering a war somewhere but the problem is that US has run out of soft targets. Venezuela provides them that opportunity. In view of that Putin has hinted of another Cuban Missile crisis so things may not be that easy in Venezuela as well.
India and Pakistan unintentionally may provide them that trigger and interestingly suicide bombing of Pulwama style have all the hallmarks of ISIS=CIA!. The 2 most stupid countries in the world may help out to bring the much needed chaos! I call them stupid as they ultimately will play in the hands of other bigger powers. They both are also stupid because both are nuclear powers and yet India for some unknown reason spends a gazillion amount on purchasing conventional weapons and Pakistan spends 80% of its borrowed money on defence (a misnomer for war). Damn it!
Some afterthoughts
India's Objectives: As they openly stated: to Isolate Pakistan, but terrorist Modi cannot see beyond his nose and so doesn't understand that Pakistan right now is battle hardened country and China will not let them just have a walk into a country where they are investing 50 Billion dollars! Another miscalculation that Modi may have done was that by sending in the antiquated MIGs they may bolster Iran too to make the so called preemptive style raid. Again Modi should understand that Iran plays a game that brings Americans (whom you seem to copycat) to their knees! They don't take others bait they strike at time and place of their own choosing.
Pakistan Objectives:
Establishment, establishment, establishment and Modi is a God sent gift that keeps on giving
The only problem that Pakistan has that Saudis are bankrolling their economy and they in the end may ask for their services against Iran.
Last but not least
Both countries have more or less deescalated. Nuclear deterence works. From this day on if both nations are wise they should cut down their armed forces and defence budget to maybe 5 percent of the 100% that is needed for research and development of delivering the Nukes to targets and 5% of personnel who are needed to fire the rockets if the doomsday ever arrive other than that from this day on no one should ever take them seriously as all they are doing is trying to explain why they (the security establishment) are needed. The people of the two nations should understand that all this drama is FAKE and so should not fall for it and rather keep focus on day to day important struggle against this very tyranny.
