The meandering Remixes negotiate control, monitoring and UFO paranoia. Topics that are in the current age of Edward Snowden as actual as they were in the days of J. Edgar Hoover. There‘s too much paranoia, yesterday and today.

Illegal NSA Surveillance of Americans: Secret Authorizations Granted by Bush and Obama
Arthur Sulzberger, the controlling owner of The New York Times, and his Editor, Bill Keller, blocked their own reporters, James Risen and Eric Lichtblau, from publishing the fact (communicated by the leakers) that that Bushâs statements that everything was hunky-dory legal were lies. Thus, Bush was able to win re-election against John Kerry in 2004. But, then, Risen got a book contract, and so was able to publish the truth after the 2004 election (which was what principally concerned Bush â his re-election); and, so, The New York Times finally allowed the truth to be published also in their pages, after the âelection,â and thus too late for the public to absorb the fact that theyâd been deceived by Bush about this.
Ukraine Crisis Goes Nuclear
Whether NATO is in fact attempting to intentionally create threats to Ukraineâs nuclear power plants as a pretext to intervene more directly in Ukraine or not is irrelevant. It is directly supporting the regime in Kiev that had organized and continues to perpetuate Right Sector who is currently creating such threats. However, with NATO being behind the chemical attack in Damascus, Syria in August of 2013 – the idea of NATO fabricating a similar pretext in Ukraine is not beyond the realm of possibilities.

Michael Hudson: The New Cold Warâs Ukraine Gambit
Finance in todayâs world has become war by non-military means. Its object is the same as that of military conquest: appropriation of land and basic infrastructure, and the rents that can be extracted as tribute. In todayâs world this is taken mainly in the form of debt service and privatization. That is how neoliberalism works, subduing economies by indebting their governments and using unpayably high debts as a lever to pry away the public domain at distress prices. It is what todayâs New Cold War is all about. Backed by the IMF and European Central Bank (ECB) as knee-breakers in what has become in effect a financial extension of NATO, the aim is for U.S. and allied investors to appropriate the plums that kleptocrats have taken from the public domain of Russia, Ukraine and other post-Soviet economies in these countries, as well as whatever assets remain.

Why donât we all just agree on Global Warming?
First, let it be said that David Victor, in his speech, self-describes himself as follows: âI consider myself part of the mainstream scientific community on climate change, and I do all the things that the mainstream does. I teach about climate science and policy; I participate actively in the IPCC; I publish in all the normal journals.â He is a dyed-in-the-wool, self-proclaimed, practicing, Global Warming believer. He uses the term âbelieverâ in his speech to describe adherents to the IPCC consensus. In any case, he cannot be mistaken for any kind of a climate change skeptic.
Each of the five following points of agreement is quoted directly from his speech, though not in sequential order, with some with emphasis added, each quote is followed by some comments by myself, in italics like this, to clearly differentiate them from Victorâs quoted words:

ISEE-3 Reboot Project In The News
„A private team is preparing to make contact with a 36-year-old NASA spacecraft after reaching its $125,000 crowdfunding goal on Wednesday (May 14). The ambitious private project, the first of its type, is attempting to reuse the International Sun-Earth Explorer 3 probe (ISEE-3), which launched in 1978 and ceased science operations in 1997.“

Update: ISEE-3 Reboot Project: Aiming for First Contact
Our first official attempt to contact the spacecraft will be at the Arecibo antenna in Puerto Rico the week of the May 19.. The folks down there are working to fit us into their busy schedule of radar observations of Near Earth Objects. That kind of stuff is interesting to me as well so it will be a lot of fun to see a place that Iâve seen on TV and in movies for most of my life. We are working out an arrangement whereby to where the ISEE-3 Reboot Project will donate the power amplifier that we are getting from Germany to Arecibo in consideration for their support of our project.

Neuer Anlauf gegen die Kriegsvollmacht vom 14. September 2001 im U.S.-Kongress
Der plötzlich ausgerufene âTotale Kriegâ in und um Nigeria, der aus den Schatten gesprungene Krieg in der Ukraine, die so bizarr salonfĂ€hig gewordene Gefahr eines Weltkriegs zwischen Westblock und Russland und andere rational scheinbar unerklĂ€rliche Konflikte und SpannungsfĂ€lle haben einen in Deutschland bis dato immer noch nicht verstandenen Hintergrund: Den drei Tage nach den Attentaten des 11. September durch den Kongress erteilten âBlankoscheck fĂŒr perpetuierten Kriegâ.
