The idea in this post is to move from
Almost Believable scenarios down to
Bizarre and Almost Crazy scenarios by the end and to stretch the boundaries of credulity. My opinion on all this? Much easier to accept the early articles and much harder to fully accept the latter but none of it is without truth, IMHO.
On the grounds that it is better to have read something through than to have turned one's head away, here we go:
There is evidence that the
banking crisis has been known about for a long time and did not arise simply through innocent incompetence.
There is also evidence that, far from the
nationalization and the rescue packages being a knee-jerk reaction, they were quite cynically thought through a long time ago and are here to stay, at least in some form or other.
The type of people who go to the investment banker cocktail parties are not a great deal different in temperament to those involved in the “
positive job discrimination” promoting people of a certain ilk into key positions, thereby perpetuating the type.
The nature of the people involved is illustrated
in this link.
Sooner or later, when discussing people of a certain ilk being placed in key roles in both the public and private sectors, one has to mention
Common Purpose. In this post, the comments are more illuminating than the post itself.
Reading more widely and digging deeper, which the investigative blogger tends to do, the breadth of the problem of these sorts of people spreading their tentacles across society is seen in pushes for
Total Information Awareness and other infrastructural moves.
One recurring theme in all this is
the interconnectedness of the people involved - the networking and the way the same names keep popping up is illuminating.
If this was just a question of a bunch of ambitious, error prone non-comps blighting our lives, it would be terrible but not nearly as terrible
when the law is invoked to enable their craziness.
This is particularly so when the principle of
arbitrary interpretation is applied, i.e. "You are a criminal because I interpret the law that way and my friends in high places agree."
When this principle is extended to
citizens’ juries, in which incumbent CP types, in regions such as the South-West and in particular Bristol, both determine the composition of those juries and then administer guidelines on how to act, based on the CP interpretation of right and wrong, then this is like a Nuremberg show trial.
Even more worrying is that the principle of arbitrary surveillance and arrest is worldwide, e.g.
in the US,
in Europe and
in the UK. In the UK, they have 28 days to do what they want to you but remember it almost became 42 days but didn't, thanks be to the Lords.
One way of dealing with the dissident, recalcitrant, seditious insurgent, as a totalitarian state would describe a caller for free speech and the right to dissent, is to go in for a bit of group stalking - most effective and almost impossible to pin down.
Here and
here. Most stalking is
one-on-one, male on female but there is also this worrying group thing, where the aim is to silence a dissenting voice or one who would expose you or maybe even someone who disagrees politically.
More insidious is the welcome awaiting someone unfortunate enough to be "detained". One has to smile at the hullabaloo over waterboarding when the real thing is so much worse.
Here and it continues
here. Woodrow Wilson spoke of the network being interlocked and insidious and I've seen no evidence it isn't. Professional guilds are an accepted entity and sections of them, at the highest level ,are likely to be of a similar mind and global in scope.
That's why
a psychiatrist from one country, who has operated in another, can be criminally charged in a third.
And it is not an isolated case - it is only one of the rare ones which found it to trial. Worse is the
sustained, long term experimentation which has gone on in the security environment for decades, was formerly denied but is now mainstream knowledge.
One could stop the investigation here and conclude that it was just
mind games but are you actually aware of what they entail, these mind games?
Naturally, there are those who have reason to dismiss
this out of hand, even to working towards the acceptance of the False Memory Syndrome as a recognized psychological phenomenon. The problem with this is the testimony of a considerable number of "victims" who recount similar stories and one account from a "
former perpetrator", whose testimony I'm still searching the web, trying to find the definitive rebuttal.
All the above may be true, it may be fantasy. One thing I know is that there are people who now have arbitrary power of arrest and I, for one, do not fancy what might happen, once inside. Nobody outside need ever know.
Have you ever heard of
Mr. Buttle?
