Tidbits and notes posted on FB and Twitter. Part 241
Note: I take notes of books I read and comment on events and edit sentences that fit my style. I pay attention to researched documentaries and serious links I receive. The page of backlog opinions and events is long and growing like crazy, and the sections I post contains a month-old events that are worth refreshing your memory
60% des terres arables inexploitees de la planete sont en Afrique: The Last Frontier to feed humanity, though what the agro-multinationals are applying the mono-culture of cotton and soja and flowers (roses and tulip) that are Not the staple food for the growing population in Africa
In every community, there are layers of apartheid behaviors: autochtone (born in the Land), immigrants, religion, color of skin (even color of the eyes), social status, mother tongue, size of the family… The nastiest and enduring of racism is based on ideological myths and abstract notions.
For example, the Sephardi Jews, those from the Middle East and North Africa, are from the same original roots of the people of the Land, and even their religion is founded on the same stories, customs and traditions of the Land.
When the Sephardi Jews shoot to kill a Palestinian, they are actually assassinating their own father, mother, sisters and brothers. And yet, they are more racist than the “white” Ashkenazim Jews who immigrated from Europe and adopted the German Zionist colonial ideology and transplanted it into Israel.
At least the “White” immigrants to apartheid South Africa could enjoy yearly vacations and having a house maid to maintain their “home”
Et les immigrants Blancs, employees par les industries de l’apartheid Sud Africaine, sont-ils mieux integres a la communaute’ Africaner? Pas du tout: ils seront toujours “wit kaffer” (cafards blancs), “Fucking immigrants”.
Les garsons des immigres Blancs n’avaient pas droit d’integrer l’equipe locale de rugby. A l’ecole, les cheveux sont rases, et les langues etrangeres etaient interdite a l’ecole. La Bible s’apprend uniquement en Afrikaans.
By 6 pm, all Black workers in the industries of apartheid South Africa were prohibited from walking on the streets.
In 2014, the USA created the Biological Technological Office. This agency announced that biology joins basic sciences to produce an “augmented soldier” since robots by themselves are Not capable to win in the battle fields.
Methamphetamine, which aid in overcoming fatigue, was massively administered to the German and Japanese soldiers in WWII.
In Viet Nam, US soldiers were given amphetamine “Go pills”. The British soldiers when sent to Afghanistan in 2001 and later to Iraq (2003) received a “safer” alternative to addiction to “exaltation” with Ritaline. They all returned home addicted and totally useless.
In the battle of Austerlitz of 1805, where Napoleon defeated the armies of 3 monarchs, 2 divisions of France infantry received a triple shot of liquor before charging the plateau of of Pratzen. Wondering if an overdose of liquor that the Republican Guards got before charging the mound where the British were retrenched accelerated their quick descent in chaos in Waterloo
US Gen. Stanley McChrystal claimed in 2013 that the use of drones in Afghanistan generated a visceral hatred toward USA among the Afghanis: This is no longer a war among fighters, but the enemy is a coward avoiding the fight. Any fallen Augmented Soldiers shouldn’t ever be decorated for valiance. The same hatred extended to Yemenis, Somalis, Syrians and Iraqis. Israel army, using drones, is also viewed as a cowardly enemy
