If you displease certain government and military operatives, they WILL threaten you!

If you displease certain government and military operatives, they WILL attack you !
I don’t write under my true legal name. Doing so, I found out, is a liability and a potential danger. How do I know?
Before Bush Jr.’s war in Iraq when the war frenzy for it was being purposefully whipped up, I knew that the war (as Alan Greenspan later confirmed) was all about gaining control of Iraqi oil, as well as destabilizing Iraq enough to dominate the broken country, as well as gain power in Middle Eastern political and economic affairs.
So sick at heart and distraught from the war having started, I wrote articles about those aims being the case as soon as the slaughtering invasion by the U.S. military was well underway.
Then in response to one of my writings posted on an internationally viewed website, a bunch of U.S. Marines wrote comments that that they knew where I live and proved it was so that they had somehow found my address. Then, they wrote that they were coming after me and to my home in order to kill me as they hated my views about their war!
Law, Not Crime, Has Come From South of the Border
By David Swanson, World BEYOND War
Not so much criminals as the foundations of the rule of law — that is what has infiltrated the United States from Latin America. That seems to be a major thread running through Greg Grandin’s wonderful new history of the hemisphere, America, América: A New History of the New World. It’s a book you can dive back into repeatedly, not to mention fantasize about someone compacting it into a short slideshow for the benefit of the President of the United States.
British settler colonists in North America had their preachers and writers, but those individuals had a tendency to pretend Native Americans were not real, did not exist, perhaps never had existed, or simply didn’t count for much on empty land, or didn’t count because they were to be pushed out or eliminated rather than lived with. Spain, in contrast, generated a tremendous raging debate between supporters and denouncers of its killing, robbery, theft, enslavement, and terrorizing of indigenous people. Spain broke new ground, according to Grandin, in producing criticism of its own atrocities as it conquered South America.
The Ivy League and Multinationals of Atrocity: How Elite Universities and Tech Oligarchs Whitewash Algorithmic Genocide
Tracy Turner
Prologue: The Ivory Tower's Shadow — Algorithmic Genocide's Quiet Architects
In the rarefied air of America's most hallowed halls—Harvard's crimson cloisters, Columbia's venerable lecture rooms, USC's sprawling research labs—there simmers a sinister symbiosis. Behind polished façades of academic inquiry and innovation, a darker truth festers: these institutions are not mere sanctuaries of knowledge but incubators and laundries of algorithmic genocide. Cloaked in the antiseptic language of "data science," "artificial intelligence," and "decision intelligence," they funnel billions in grants, fellowships, and research contracts that serve not the cause of human progress but the machinery of mass oppression and digital ethnic cleansing.
The Halls of Genocide are the Ivy League of Atrocity, where elite universities, tethered to a sprawling network of military contractors and tech oligarchs—Microsoft, Google, Amazon, Palantir, Lockheed Martin, Raytheon—sanitize and weaponize the very algorithms that determine life and death in conflict zones from Gaza to Xinjiang. Here, the tendrils of the Talpiot Program's ruthless AI vision extend beyond Israel's borders into the sterile corridors of MIT and Stanford, where predictive targeting becomes research, autonomous kill chains become thesis topics, and ethnic profiling algorithms are dressed up as cutting-edge innovation.
Getting Realistic And Sensible About Maladaptive Behaviors
By Sally Dugman
Feeding 9 Billion | National Geographic
“Picture of (a) pig farm in Mato Grosso, Brazil, with sows confined …” (Presumably, they can’t stand, nor move. Stuck in one position, they are forced to lie on one side to nurse after being artificially inseminated. They do so day after day, week after week and month after month despite the discomfort of being heavy in weight and forced to retain one single position for so long. Then they are either used to breed a new set of piglets, which will be used the same way in the future if females or brought to the slaughterhouse, as are the males of their offspring except for the few that look like top breeders for desired traits, that will be milked for sperm. … Are these creatures considered intelligent animals – animals as smart as dogs? No, they are simply commodities to make ever higher profits. … Do you imagine that the farm workers are paid fairly for their hard work or do you imagine the farm owners garnering the brunt of the earnings regardless of whatever they may or may not do work-wise to support the farm from which lavish wealth can be gained for them? … This is my understanding, wholly correct or not, when I see such a photo as this one. – S.

Lavender Protocol: The Algorithm That Kills by Proxy

How a Silent AI War Machine Was Engineered by Tech Giants, Funded by States, and Taught and Researched in Ivy Halls.
The Cold Arithmetic of Cyber Execution
In the age of digital dominion, where death can be calculated by an algorithm and accountability buried beneath code, a new species of warfare has quietly emerged—faceless, data-driven, and morally anesthetized. It does not march on the battlefield with banners or tanks but instead pulses through fiber-optic veins and GPU clusters, making life-or-death decisions at the speed of light. This is the Lavender Protocol.
What began as an obscure node within Israel’s vast military-tech nexus—reportedly used to identify and execute human targets in Gaza based on algorithmic profiling—has metastasized into something more insidious: a global doctrine of proxy killing, developed and deployed not just by nation-states, but by the corporate and academic aristocracy of our time. Lavender is not just a system. It is a theology of technical omnipotence. And it is spreading.
Religion and Brutality Addressed
By Sally Dugman
Quite some years ago, I overheard some theology students in a hot debate. Some of them were claiming that God could only be two of three traits — a triad — assigned to him. It went like this:
If God were all seeing, all powerful and all loving — he, she, it or they wouldn’t allow evil (brutality, murder and related “bad” behaviors) to take place. However and if God were all seeing and all powerful, but not all loving, he wouldn’t care about whom were getting brutalized and killed off prematurely.
Likewise if God were all seeing and all loving, but not all powerful — God might not be able to fix about wrongful actions taking place. So the world could still be vicious and God would not address it as such.
American strategists fearing war with Russia
By Lucas Leiroz
Apparently, American strategists are concerned about the future of US-Russian relations in a post-Ukrainian conflict scenario. In a recent report, one of the most important US think tanks stated that Washington's implementation of a "hardline" policy in Europe could lead to a direct war with Russia, encouraging American decision-makers to rethink the country's European policy.
The document was published by the Rand Corporation. According to the think tank’s analysts, if the US tightens its policies in Europe after the conflict, a situation of war with Russia will become very likely. Experts do not believe that Washington is capable of deterring Russia through the militarization of Europe, with all policies in the region becoming forms of provocation against Moscow.
The Thirsting Earth: From Hunger Stones to Glacier Ghosts in the Age of Collapse
Tracy Turner
Weather lies. Climate kills.
It begins with a misunderstanding. Weather is moody; climate is a movement. Weather shifts like the temperament of a sick king—day to day, tempest to calm, fog to flame. Climate, on the other hand, is the dynasty behind the throne, grinding empires to dust over centuries or—more recently—decades. Mistake one for the other and you might bring an umbrella to a mass extinction.
As the world fixates on momentary heatwaves or polar vortex novelties, a planetary contraction is underway—a slow-motion implosion of water, soil, food, shelter, and trust. Drought is not merely an agricultural inconvenience. It is a planetary verdict. It is not local; it is global. It is not temporary; it is systemic.
The Triad of Control: AI, Biotech, and the Billionaires Behind the Curtain
Chris Spencer
They promised progress. What we got was a digital leash, many dangerous genetic gambles, and a ruling class without a conscience.
THE TRIAD OF CONTROL
Beneath the sheen of innovation and the rhetoric of progress, a deeper architecture of influence is emerging—quietly, systemically, and without democratic consent. It is built on three converging pillars: artificial intelligence, biotechnological power, and a global elite increasingly unmoored from accountability.
What binds these forces is not conspiracy in the cartoonish sense, but convergence—a mutual reinforcement of systems that limit transparency, consolidate decision-making, and reduce human agency to a variable in a larger, opaque equation. AI no longer simply processes data; it determines visibility, enforces digital orthodoxy, and obscures its own logic behind proprietary firewalls. Biotechnology, armed with unprecedented tools for genomic manipulation, is evolving faster than the ethical frameworks meant to constrain it. And threading through both is a transnational class of policymakers, financiers, and technocrats—unelected yet influential, philanthropic yet profit-motivated, visible yet untouchable.
The Psychopathology of Empire: Diagnosing the Control Disorders of America's Ruling Class (Satire)
By Dr. Althea Mentes
A Diagnostic Guide for the Late-Stage Empire (Satire)
The Empire's Mirror-When Power Becomes a Clinical Condition
By the dusk of the American republic's moral standing, its leadership's pathology no longer attempts to masquerade itself as statesmanship. It is now a clinical syndrome that manifests in the obsessive-compulsive need to dominate, the narcissistic disdain for dissent, and the paranoid surveillance of friends and foes alike. The ruling elites-presidents, Pentagon technocrats, and intelligence operatives have a collective psychology more worthy of a diagnostic manual than a democratic polity.
Consider the recent actions of Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, who has placed unprecedented restrictions on media access within the Pentagon. Journalists are now confined to secured areas and must request escorted tours to venture elsewhere, a move justified under the guise of protecting sensitive information. This expresses a fundamental authoritarian urge, an outcropping of what might be labeled Institutional Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, in which the imperative to govern information flow trumps democratic standards.
