“The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the TRUTH becomes the greatest ENEMY OF THE STATE.”
"Tell a Lie That is Big Enough, and Repeat it Often Enough, and the Whole World Will Believe It. "
— Dr. Joseph M. Goebbels - Hitler's propaganda minister
It is the leaders of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along...Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country. --Reichsmarschall Hermann Goering
...“Once the U.S. uses a nuclear weapon again, it will heighten the probability that others will too,” the physicists write. “In a world with many more nuclear nations and no longer a ‘taboo’ against the use of nuclear weapons, there will be a greatly enhanced risk that regional conflicts could expand into global nuclear war, with the potential to destroy our civilization.”
Jorge Hirsch, a professor of physics at the University of California, San Diego Protesting President Bush’s plan to use Nuclear weapons on Iran.

Anyway I ‘d like to talk about Stephen Harper & his policies & statements regarding Iran & Iraq & Hamas & a couple of other issues as a sort of report card on how he is doing thus far. From the comments he makes it is difficult to distinguish his policies from those of George W. Bush & his administration . But I do feel we should give harper a bit of a break since he & his buddies are so in awe of Bush; note how effusive Peter MacKay was when he met Condoleeza Rice ; it was a bit embarrassing I thought he was about to ask her to the Prom or whatever.
Sorry to interrupt your HOCKEY GAME , eh so what’s new,eh...
NUKES FALLING , Hockey Season goes ahead ,eh!!!

Canada's Harper backs US nuclear standoff with Iran
04-18-2006, 23h45
OTTAWA (AFP)
Canada's prime minister is backing US-led efforts to halt Iran's alleged nuclear weapons program as Stephen Harper claims :
" that our allies have a very serious concern when you see a regime like Iran with the kind of values it stands for, the kind of human rights abuses we've seen there ... our allies have a completely legitimate case in being concerned about a regime like that gaining access to nuclear weapons."
And so we are told by Stephen Harper that American values are better than Iran’s ? By aligning himself to the Bush Administration’s paranoia about Iran and Bush’s propaganda campaign to boost support for an attack & invasion of Iran & the possible use of Nuclear Weapons to accomplish their goals in Iran , Harper shows his true colours as another “ shoot from the hip cowboy ” & possibly where his loyalty really lies; with his alter-ego George W. Bush ?
And as for us, that is Canadians we have become a country of sheep believing whatever manufactured lies Bush & Harper & their cult of Neocons produce . These so called lies are really “Noble Lies ” told to promote their agenda which they believe is for the general good or, at least, good for the ruling Elite . This is just part of the philosophy of the Neocons who are “ True Believers ” of their Mentor Leo Strauss who believed as the Neocons do that the majority of the citizens of any state are not intelligent enough or wise enough to be able to understand complex political questions & not virtuous enough to be relied on to do the right thing and that which is necessary to protect that state i.e. America . What’s good for America is Good for the World
It is not surprising that Stephen Harper would support the United States in its manufactured crisis over Iran & that he would support bombing & invading Iran & even support the use of Nuclear Weapons against Iran. Besides he’s a good Christian boy & one thing Jesus loved was Blowing Things Up...eh!
He is far from being the moderate or traditionalist conservative he & his party claimed to be during the election.
Maybe he’ll do like Bush & declare himself King & God’s True Messenger???
HAMAS
Stephen Harper was the first world leader to break off Diplomatic ties with Palestine because Hamas won the election thereby echoing the Bush administration’s & Israel’s attitude to the election of Hamas.
( wouldn’t it be more profitable to engage in discussions with Hamas for a period of time to try to gauge what their aims , goals & agenda are since often when an opposition party comes into a position of power its past rhetoric must give way to the realities of actually governing ... ah well that’s not exactly what this is all about is it...
( of course we are not permitted to discuss any policy which directly affects Israel since the NEOCONS see everything in Black & White terms so any critique of Israel is therefore evidence of anti-Semitism-
or to show any sympathy or concern for Palestinians or Arabs or Muslims is also seen as being anti-Israel & therefore Anti-Semitic-
But I have argued before that disagreeing with the policies of a particular Israeli administration is just that & not necessarily proof of Anti-Semitism-
For instance I am against the Wall they are building which reminds me of the Berlin Wall & the Walls built around the Warsaw Ghetto by the Nazis which seems a little bit ironic -
I am also against the sort of indiscriminate reprisals launched by the Israelis ( in which innocent civilians including children are killed ) in response to a terrorist attack . This does not mean that I want to make excuses for the actions of terrorists who also kill indiscriminately . Two wrongs do not make a right.

Most Cdns. support war, Harper tells U.S. TV
Updated Fri. Apr. 4 2003 10:56 PM ET

Opposition leader Stephen Harper has told Fox News in the U.S. that most Canadians outside Quebec support the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq, despite our government's decision not to take part in the war.
In an interview with the American TV network, Harper said he endorsed the war and said he was speaking "for the silent majority" of Canadians. Only in Quebec, with its "pacifist tradition," are most people opposed to the war, Harper said.
"Outside of Quebec, I believe very strongly the silent majority of Canadians is strongly supportive," the Canadian Alliance leader says.
The Canadian Government’s position is explained by the Deputy Prime Minister at the time:
John Manley told the House Canada's "thoughts and prayers" are with the U.S. but said the decision not to go to war is "consistent with decades of Canadian policy."
"It was our hope that by authorizing greater time for inspections that a broader consensus could emerge in the international community that it was necessary for the use of force," Manley said.
"We have stood apart because we believe it is the Security Council of the United Nations that ought to take responsibility for authorizing force."
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Canadian policy for decades has been to support the United Nations but this did not & still does not satisfy Harper since like Bush he puts little faith in the UN & sees nothing wrong with the United States acting unilaterally even if the action contravenes International Law . The Bush administration only uses the UN to promote its agenda & when blocked ; it ignores the UN which is what Americans especially conservatives accused the former Soviet Union of doing- but now the United States does as it pleases & expects other Western Nations to support it or if not to keep their objections to themselves .
Of course we now know that the Invasion of Iraq was not necessary & has turned into a fiasco but if you are a true believer( like Stephen Harper & his gang of made in America Neoconservatives) in George W. Bush then you have faith in him & his friends who surely know what they are doing ??? Besides George Bush says he gets his orders direct from God so who could doubt him.

Canada shuts out Hamas
'No contact, no funds, period'; Relations with Palestinian government cut; aid to flow via humanitarian agencies

Published: Thursday, March 30, 2006
Canada became the first country to sever relations and cut tens of millions of dollars in aid to the new Palestinian government yesterday for its refusal to renounce violence and recognize Israel.
"There will be no contact and no funds, period," Foreign Affairs Minister Peter MacKay said after a meeting with the Conservative caucus. "We cannot send any direct aid to an organization that refuses to renounce terrorist activity, refuses to renounce violence."

Harper slams Liberal over potential opposition to accountability act
Steve Erwin, Canadian Press
Published: Friday, April 21, 2006
TORONTO (CP) - Any Liberal threats to the fledgling Conservative government's bill aimed at making Ottawa more accountable and transparent would be "intolerable," Prime Minister Stephen Harper said Friday.
The proposed federal accountability act, which seeks to restrict the influence of big business, unions and lobbyists on government, is "not a done deal" because the Liberals will "work to defeat it," Harper told a group of about 900 people during a speech to the Empire Club of Canada.
Liberals in the Senate have only indicated they would slow the passage of Harper's accountability bill by returning portions they're concerned about back to the Commons for further consideration.
"I have to say, that's something, even for the Liberal party - unelected political appointees blocking legislation to make Parliament more accountable," Harper said to applause and laughter from a largely partisan crowd.
He accused members of the previous Liberal government of also being "obstructionist" and "particularly vicious" in their criticism of the bill introduced earlier this month.
"After the sponsorship scandal, why am I not surprised?" Harper asked rhetorically.
Recent Harper speeches have taken a similar election-style tone, taunting the Liberal opposition that is still months away from naming a new leader to replace former prime minister Paul Martin. He also included constant reminders in his speeches of the sponsorship scandal and subsequent Gomery inquiry that led to the Conservatives' zeal for a more transparent bureaucracy in Ottawa.

Day Care
attacking the present system of Daycare by issuing “ Vouchers “ for $1200 per pre-school age child wow what a deal ??? actually not such a deal since private Day Cares charge a lot more than $ 5,200 per year per child... so the $ 1200 from a merely economic point of view is woefully inadequate but hey, maybe much of his constituency can’t crunch big numbers like this or maybe that’s how Stephen Harper sees it.
Anyway his aim is to undermine & scuttle the Day Care programs across Canada which he believes is necessary to help bring down the Evil Secular Humanists Anti-Christian Anti-Family Pro-Feminist Cabal that has taken over our country so Thank God for George Bush ...I mean ahhhh Pat Bucanan or Pat Robertson & oh Yeah Stephen Harper & the Heritage Foundation or Front Inc. Canadian Division.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CBC & other ATHEISTIC SOCIALISTS infiltrated institutions
In his statements on accountability legislation he made sure he made references to the CBC & the Arts Council & other Liberal artsy-fartsy commie pinko organizations he ‘ll kill them all off by hacking away a bit here & there ... death by audit of course the CTV & other Canadian private networks are absolutely giddy over this & besides once the CBC’s gone there’ll be no more of those commie movies like the one on Tommy Douglas which made Capitalist look bad...so who cares if the poor do without good medical care “ let them die & reduce the surplus population ” as dear old Scrooge or George Bush would say...& you see how he handled a natural disaster like Katrina : Just pretend it’s not really happening...
This always reminds me of people who take fits because of the types of films that were financed by the National Film Board for instance the early rather tasteless horror films of David Cronenberg ( RABID, SHIVERS, The Brood , SCANNERS ) whose success which I now compare to the New Zealand ‘s version of the NFB which also bein an evil organization financed the early rather nasty even mor tasteless & GOREY horror films of Peter Jackson ( DEAD ALIVE , BAD TASTE, MEET THE FEEBLES, & HEAVENLY CREATURES ) who went on to make the outrageously successful LORD OF THE RINGS TRILOGY now we wouldn’t want that to happen here would we!!!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Canadian Veterans & Military
Harper also announced that his Pro-Military government ( like George BUSH ) will be reducing pay-outs to injured or wounded soldiers , or in the case of those killed in some meaningless engineered American War ,to their spouses & family ; if he follows in Bush footsteps the Canadian combat soldiers will have to buy their Body-Armor on EBAY or do a charity drive in their neighborhood to pay for their gear.
IDENTITY CARDS
Harper has also caved in on US proposals for a national Identity card to be used for crossing the border into the US.
ENVIRONMENT & “ JUNK SCIENCE ”
Harper like Bush is also POOH POOHING all that “ JUNK SCIENCE ” about Global Warming & Pollution or that corporations should be held responsible for Environmental damage by oil spills or whatever beside OIL IS NATURAL & NOT HARMFUL so there you go.
MARIJUANA
And to please the Neocons in America he has scuttled any plans to ease up on laws about the use of marijuana which we all know leads its users to become card-carrying Communists or even Terrorists -
And like Bush Harper now ends his statements to the press with “ God Bless um... America ahhh... Canada ”
For a Prime Minister who is running a minority government, it seems to me, that he acts as if he had a majority & therefore a mandate to push forward his Neoconservative Religious Right agenda-
This seems odd on the face of it but as far as he is concerned in my opinion if the opposition parties do not like what he is doing & he appears to be daring them to resist & thereby bring about the conditions which would lead him to call another election which Canadians will not like & will then punish the opposition for making another federal election necessary & therefore give him the majority he craves. But either way in Harper’s view it’s a win/ win situation.
But this seems to be what Canadians want & in our search for our own Identity we or most Canadians have chosen to identify ourselves with the present Bush Administration . And we too may get a piece of the World for ourselves maybe a few small colonies to call our own once the Americans conquer all those nasty evil-intentioned countries.
Anyway that’s all for now,
GOOD NIGHT & GOOD LUCK ,EH !
GORD.
