OK, I’ll say it; I’m pissed off and insulted: Why did the Standard change my blogname?

Update: IPrent, the webmaster of the Standard has updated the blogroll and Changed my Blog name to it’s full glory.

Thank you IPrent for being straight up.

At the moment I’m working on a new look for my blog and in my search for inspiration I decided to check the code behind blogs I like and one of those blogs is the Standard. To my surprise I found a link purporting to link to my blog but when I looked for my blog in the blog roll I could not find it. What I did find was a part of my name and sure enough when I clicked it I was linked through to my blog.

Here is a combined screen dump of both the site and the source code:

My mangled blogname and the link to my blog

I was a tat befuddled about this and decided to check if this was a policy of the Standard in order to perhaps better manage the blogroll size but no, every other name with the exception of the CAFCA blog had their entire name mentioned.

Now CAFCA or watchblog – the online tool for the Campaign Against Foreign Control of Aotearoa as it is officially named is generally known by its acronym so that makes sense but no other blog had their name changed or mangled beyond recognisability. So no Curmudgeon for The Irascible Curmudgeon or Idle fellow for Idle Thoughts of an Idle Fellow, Highway one for Born on state highway one, hell even Auckland Transport blog had their whole name mentioned. Every blog except mine had their whole name mentioned and was properly linked to their blog and that is how it should be.

So why was the name of my blog mangled to the point of being unrecognisable? I can only come up with one thing but what a childish thing that would be.

When I started commenting on the Standard I was almost without exception ridiculed for my opinions about the events of 911 and the international banking world to which I contented John Key belonged. In fact I was almost banned for doing so and only the opinions of a few of their steady readers kept them from banning me at that time.

Times and some of the authors have changed and I no longer am the house nutter. In fact more and more readers of the Standards seem to openly doubt the official version of the 911 events and it seems to me that with linking to my blog even with the mangled name the Standard has made a kneefall and is acknowledging the validity of my blog and that can only be a good thing.

After all I work hard to bring alternative information to my readers and I do so with the greatest integrity and dedication. You may not like the information I gather and in fact you may think I’m nuts but there you have it. Take it or leave it and it seems the Standard (and not the dard or the Stand) has decided to take it.

But… and that is a big but it seems that the Standardistas (as the Standard authors point out they are a collective) do not want to wholeheartedly admit to doing so and as far as I’m concerned they are breaking a rule that I take very seriously. Thou shall not mangle another blogs name in order to have your cake and eat it too.

In other words if my blog is worth linking to it is worth linking to with its full name. Just like every other blog the site links too. If you can’t be bothered to do so then kindly take my mangled name of you blogroll.

Although to do so now would be incredibly petty so come on guys, I work hard for my blog so why not give me the recognition the link suggests you think I deserve.

Israel murders and innocents pay the price.

Not that you would know from our mainstream media but a couple of days ago it emerged that video’s were taken of an assassination by a Mossad murder team in action. They assassinated in that particular case a political Hamas leader (Elected in a free legal Palestinian election). It turns out they stole the identities of several innocent UK citizens who now and quite rightly so fear for their lives.

While you may or may not like the Hamas movement should we condone the outright political assassinations of opponents by any government. Without the need for proof or court case?

For me that would be a firm NO because always and I mean always the freedom to murder political opponents without any reason other than they were “terrorists” mentioned as legitimisation ends up in the murder of innocent and peaceful political opposition by a power hungry political elite.

The coming Financial wars or is New Zealand going to be the NWO pirate den?

While John Key presents us with the get rich quick scheme he and his banking buddies dreamed up this is what Gerard Celente has to say about the coming financial wars. Is this why John Key had to be elected as our Prime Minister? So the New World Order oligarchs would have a place to stash their loot?

1000 Architects and Engineers want a new and independent investigation into the events of 911

John Key wants to make a bank out of New Zealand

It makes perfect sense really. John Key is a banker and he  is making a mess of New Zealand for anybody other than his rich prick friends and mining and banking buddies. If I were him I would try to go back to something I knew something about too.

So why not make all of New Zealand into a bank? Not a sensible bank loaning to small people like you and me to start new and much needed small businesses that need people and communities to survive but one big giant fraudulent investment bank to speculate and gamble with the derivatives his former employer Merrill Lynch started to develop while he was running the departments for oh oops, Forex and derivatives and bonds?

And what can we expect our smiling assassin to gamble with? Pension funds!!!!!

That is that bit of small money little people all over the world have invested in…. you guessed it, save investments such as derivatives and the like.

But.. but you say he only wants to manage the funds not speculate with them. See this is what banks always do at first. To get their hands on some dosh to gamble with they tell the naive punter, “why don’t you let us manage your money? We know money and you don’t and we will make it grow.”

So the mug gives his dosh to the bankster and the bankster puts it on his books. Bingo, as a bank he only needs to have a certain amount in actual reserve so any dollar you give him will automatically mean $ 10.- or more dollars in him greedy grubby little mind and that he invests in derivatives. Yahoo, the sky is the limit as Slippery John and his mates well know. After all you don’t get 50 million smackeroonies by merely investing money wisely.

Getting nervous yet? If you ain’t you haven’t been paying attention.

The good news is that when he says it is still very much in its infancy he means he’s been talking about it around the barbie with some of his rich prick mates while sipping that nice $ 1000.- whiskey one of his mining buddies send him after he had the National party tighten up that nature reserve to make it accessible for mining or was that the Cognac he bought with the money he got for those Uranium mining shares (what the hell is a PM of a Nuclear free country doing with uranium mine shares anyway? And while we’re at it; Afghanistan is being polluted and contaminated with depleted uranium for the next 45 billion years as we speak so does that also implicate John Key as taking part in a genocidal illegal war of aggression? It is after all the product dug up in the mines he partly owns as a share holder) he had to sell after he was caught once again at having a tiny wee bit of a conflict of interest while owning shares of a business he was trying to boost?

So if the opposition has any idea what might be good for them they will fight like hell not to let it happen.

What does a Fallujah like attack on Marja mean for the future of the city

This week it was announced that the city of Marja in Afghanistan was a hotbed of “Al Qaeda” and “Taliban” activity and as such it would be attacked by over 15.000 troops. US, UK and NATO troops will be launching an attack to finally root out the “Taliban”.

Why now and why at all? Because that is what empire does if the locals fight back. On the 7th of February the US troops stationed around Marja were attacked by the “Taliban” and therefore the city warrants destruction. It happened in Fallujah and it will happen here.

The German did the same in Holland when ever the locals dared to stand up against them. Kill one Geran and we will kill several hundred or thousand of you was and is the message.

So in a region with a mere 23% literacy you drop leaflets and hope that all those stupid peasants leave their meagre belongings behind but if not the “kill them all and let god decide” rule will apply.

Not only that just to make sure that the city can’t be rebuild you poison the entire city and it’s environs with Depleted Uranium and  tungsten and other toxins.

That will teach them.

As US and British troops prepare to attack the town of Marjah in Afghanistan’s Helmand Province, military commanders and the media are openly comparing the operation to the November 2004 siege of Fallujah, one of the bloodiest war crimes of the Iraq war.

The operation in central Helmand province, long an area of intense resistance to the US-led occupation, will constitute the largest military offensive since Washington invaded the country in October 2001. At least 15,000 troops are expected to lay siege to the Helmand river valley town, which has 80,000 inhabitants and is said by the US military to be a stronghold of the Taliban.

A total of 125,000 people live in the district around Marjah, which is an agricultural center 350 miles west of Kabul. The population has been swelled by Afghans fleeing villages occupied by US Marines last summer, following President Barack Obama’s order shortly after he took office to send 21,000 more troops into Afghanistan.

US Marines, frustrated and enraged over casualties suffered at the hands of an unseen enemy who is able to attack and then blend back into the local population, will be unleashed against the town in a violent military assault, with predictable results.

Just so you know what Depleted Uranium does and what awaits this city for the next 45 billion years watch this:

Strip clubs, Tranzrail shares, Swingers and Tax dodgers: John Key may be squeeky clean but he sure knows how to pick his friends

During his election campaign John Key had to come clean about “business” visits he “had” to make to strip clubs while working for Wall street giant Merrill Lynch and he tried to avoid having to tell people he had met secretly with Lord Ashcroft, the man who promised to file his tax returns with the UK IRD after he had been made a peer of the realm. Yesterday the Information Commissioner Christopher Graham gave the Tory party just 35 days to come clean about whether he kept to his word and show the tax returns of “Lord” Ashcroft. Last week one of John Key’s  best friends Herman Rockefeller (apparently not related to the Rockefeller clan) whose wedding he attended and whom he called a tremendous man and a good loyal friend was found dismembered, burned and buried in the back yard of a couple he was to have a swingers encounter with.

The saying goes; By his friends ye shall know him.

Oh and then there was this little issue with John Key lying about his tranzrail shares.

Is it just me or is the stench around the Smiling Assassin becoming more oppressive an if so how is that change smelling for ya.

Naked body scanners compulsory, refuse and you’ll be treated like a terrorist

Naked body scanning will now be compulsory at two of Britain’s biggest airports after the government announced people who refuse to let security thugs ogle their genitalia will be treated like terrorists and barred from flying.

“It is now compulsory for people selected for a scan to take part, or they will not be allowed to fly,” reports the BBC.

That ’s right – no optional pat down as we were told, if you think that having strangers leer over your naked body is an invasion of privacy and refuse, you’ll be treated the same way as a suspected terrorist.

Manchester Airport’s head of customer experience, Sarah Barrett, told the BBC that the scanners do not allow security staff to see passengers naked. This of course is a complete lie. The images produced by the scanners provide high resolution crisp images of your genitalia. This was confirmed by London Guardian writer Helen Carter who investigated trials of the scanners at Manchester Airport and said genitals were “eerily visible” in the images.

I’m in good company: 60 aerospace engineers want a new investigation into 911

Last week Architects and engineers reached a milestone; they signed up their 1000th member for their petition into a new and independent investigation into the events of 911. Amongst those were 60 Engineers.

I thought I’d introduce them to you. For those who are sadly still believing that 19 young men with box cutters can collapse three steel framed buildings into their own footprints in freefall speed I say I’m in good company why don’t you educate yourself with all the inforamtion available on this site.

As the number of verified architect and engineer petitioners at AE911Truth passes 1,000, the number describing themselves as aerospace engineers, or as engineers who have contributed professionally to the aerospace field, exceed sixty. These sixty-plus engineers were motivated to place their names on the public record as a matter of professional and social responsibility. While the skills necessary to conduct professional forensic analysis of destroyed buildings is largely distinct from those experienced in aerospace engineering, the basic physical laws involved in an analysis of the speed, symmetry, and energy input/output balance of the World Trade Center’s destruction involve only high school physics and chemistry, some lookups regarding the energy necessary to crush concrete, and basic arithmetic.

Here is a listing of these sixty-plus aerospace engineers, together with brief bios and their statements made at the time they signed: The engineers are listed alphabetically, grouped with those having full careers in aerospace listed first, and those with less than 30 years in aerospace listed second.

Engineers with Full Careers in Aerospace

Phil R. Bales, Aerospace Reliability and Life-Cycle Engineer. Employers have included major commercial engine companies, Teledyne CAE, Raytheon, and US Navy Civil Service.

“I was acutely aware of Engineering Cost Analysis and Life Cycle Cost Analysis, with many post graduate courses in these disciplines. My career was heavily biased toward statistical analysis and Warranty Cost Forecasting, requiring me to consider all possibilities, emphasizing the likelihood that the less likely events should be considered less heavily.

“Perhaps, this is why I was extremely reluctant to even consider the possibility that 9/11 could have been a staged event. ‘What is the chance that our own government could pull that off and get away with it?’ I pondered. When I was confronted with the facts, and I considered the reality that the temperatures of jet fuel combustion do not support the suggested failure modes posed by the government’s official report, I was forced into a paradigm shift. This reality has changed my entire perspective on the groups that I had previously dismissed as emotional, uneducated fools. I was wrong and I am grateful to the 9/11 Truthers for holding me accountable for the Truth! Now, I too am a 9/11 Truther.

“The facts about the collapse of three WTC buildings on 9/11/2001 just do not support the theory posed by the PBS Report, or the US Government’s publication. There must be further explanation to satisfy my hunger for the truth about the horrible realities of the WTC and Pentagon murders.

“As an engineer, as a patriot, as citizen of the United States of America, I demand that the government which is accountable to its citizens appoint an independent commission to investigate and report on the Truth of 9/11/2001.”

Dr. Robert M. Bowman, Lt. Col., USAF, ret; Exec VP, Millennium III Corp; Vice-Pres, Space Communications Co; Director of Advanced Space Programs Development, US Space Division (USAF); 101 combat missions F4, Vietnam; Head of Aero. Eng. Dept & Asst Dean, AF Inst of Tech, WPAFB.

“The official explanation in the NIST report violates the laws of physics. It is physically impossible for a building (or anything else) to fall at near-free-fall speed and do work (smashing steel and concrete) on the way down. An external energy input (like explosives) is absolutely essential. In addition, for the top of one of the towers to tip about 30 degrees and NOT continue tipping and falling off violates the law of conservation of angular momentum. The symmetrical collapse of building 7 due to highly asymmetrical damage is also unbelievable. We have not yet been told the truth. If the government has nothing to hide, why continue to hide everything? Why not a new and truly independent investigation?”

Dr. Alvin M. Bloom, Engineering consultant. BS, MS, PhD in Aerospace Engineering from University of Texas at Austin 1967

“Building collapses (straight down) at free fall speed could only be caused by a controlled demolition.”

Paul Browning, M.S. 35 years engineering experience with a NASA contractor, Bell Labs, Bellcore, AT&T Labs and Cingular/AT&T Mobility (12 years Engineering Management)

“The only steel framed skyscrapers to have ever collapsed as a result of a fire were WTC 1, 2, and 7. These buildings were built to withstand the impact of a fully loaded Boeing 707, an aircraft about the same size and weight as the aircraft that hit them on 9/11.
