THE "CHATBOX"

[brianv]

Oh rejoice! I get to tell "politicians" to "go fuck" every evening, as it something called "election time" here right now. I was joking with a couple of neighbours outside today, who literally fight to get to the front door first. "No it's my turn to tell them to "fuck off" darling". Love it!

Here in Belgium voting is mandatory, people get fines if they do not show up

Next month's election will be the first time that I will not go, and I have no intention to pay.
I will let you know how that works out.

Many sites are now "sharing" a suicide note written by a "Christopher Mackney" -- a "successful real estate agent", "ex-husband of upscale jewelry designer Dina Mackney (nee Scarmardo)" and "victim of the corrupt family court system". It is also said that the widow now claims the copyrights of the suicide note.

I doubt any of this is real. A Google search on "Christopher Mackney" turns up only one portrait: a pitiful photoshop piece:



Actually, the picture comes in two versions:

I feel the reality being represented in this curious video is impossible, but visually is difficult to deny.

For the avoidance of doubt, it purports to show five Saudi youths climb out on to the outside of a moving jeep/SUV, which is travelling tipped over on two wheels, whilst they implausibly carry out a pointless lengthy wheel-change in mid-air.

If I bite on this, and make-believe it's real, why would the wheels that are off the ground not be rotating? Even assuming the AWD/4WD was turned off, surely one would still be turning?

Maya? 3D Studio Max? Blender? Anim8or? Or absolute reality, and I'm just being super-paranoid?

And just another observation....those cars that are overtaking on the *inside* of what's presumably a left-hand drive car, 'driving' on the right....is it just me, or do they appear to have almost no realistic width/depth??

Photos: Fatal stabbings in DeKalb County





There is so much wrong with this photo, I don't even know where to begin. Try to see if you can reconcile the differences between midgets and king kong sized officers in the foreground and background layers and how they relate to the tank-sized vans. Pay particular attention to the people (including one hulk-sized officer) behind the tree in the back left of the photo.

Unbelievable.

My nomination for the worst ever postmortem hoax photo is this one allegedly taken of Hitler after committing suicide:

'cause you couldn't get a decent camera in Germany! Right.

Too Many Cooks

This is just something I have been thinking about the last couple of days for some reason. It is just something to chew on. The old saying goes "too many cooks spoil the broth." Many say that crappy and senseless elements of false flag events are placed to obfuscate and confuse. Maybe the reason is that too many people are involved. At the start Washington, DC was just a swamp with corduroy roads; now, how many exits does it go out? According to Forbes: "Meanwhile, hubs like San Francisco, New York and Washington, D.C. feature the greatest concentration of mega-commuters." I am thinking that many in this mass of people are supernumeraries, cronies, nepotists and party hacks and other partisans. It just goes without saying that these types are just going to do everything half-assed. This idea is not intended to support the blind the criminals use of being "incompetent" but merely to suggest that different "projects" are assigned to the not ready for prime time.

Proof of concept: I can neither sing or play an instrument and I a'int got no rhythm. Put me in Simon's band and I guarantee instant entropy....too many people.

I don't want to start a separate thread but still I want to share some thoughts with the other members. I have recently finished Michael Lewis' book on high frequency trading titled "Flash boys". It was given lots of publicity and even became a bestseller on Amazon. Let me get to the point.
Book has numerous references to 9/11 that its supposedly "real life" characters in majority traders and other financial market participants witnessed first hand. To me it felt like the author tried very hard to associate high frequency trading companies with terrorists. I think that another financial perfect storm is in the making and it will be blamed on HFT.

[icarusinbound]

This looks to be fairly significant - a 9/11 relaunch?

What on earth is going on with the current UK television programme http://www.channel4.com/programmes/102- ... d-america/?

Is this a rehash of the History Channel offering? Or is it a completely-different parallel production, just with the same name?

I'm watching masses of what looks like newly-hatched HD video, being broadcast currently on UK terrestrial and satellite channel Channel 4 / More4.

Documentary joining together hundreds of pieces of footage of the September 11 attack on the World Trade Center into a seamless historical record, much of it never seen before

Good grief....I'm not familiar with much of these versions of the footage being broadcast. Is this a whole new campaign?

"video unavailable in your country"
Channel 4 probably wishes the viewer to pay for their brainwashing 'service'.

That's frustrating. My main concern is that last night's programme seemed to have a very-strong Director's Cut feel to it. Rather than just a rehash of previously-offered content, this was a lot of very hi-def unfamiliar imagery, ostensibly previously-unseen citizen camcorder footage, stitched together with a faux clock-timer producer's blackboard.

I'd like to know if the History Channel programme of the same '102 Minutes' title is actually the same as what was being shown by More4 last night, or if it's a shared title, or, if it might be a Europeanised version of a North American original.

Simon, you must see this footage. There is of course a strong chance that with all the video imagery you've seen as a dedicated analyst, this may already have been viewed by you in another format. My concern is that it could be New new 'old' footage.

Does this sound familiar (programme, and/or contents):

- no programme narrator
- absence of much (any?) camera-person commentary, behind the shot
- clock timeline continuity links blackboard (as above)
- lots of dust-storm shots
- new/unfamiliar 'witness' amateur statementing
- lot of backshots of firefighters
- frequent lack of legible numbers on car licence plates, despite sharp general detail in the shot
- Tendency for the shot POVs to be unrealistically high (above shoulder)
- FDNY radio messages that feel retro-historically over-coincident with the fable narrative, almost to a whistleblower level of improbability.
- similarly-farcical levels of implausible group-hate recorded 'live' on 9/11 in Times Square, incontrovertibly date-stamped by the building ticker/marquee scrolling messages, and with people saying "we should go to war now, right now, and bomb Them"
- bizarre tripod static shots located 'five miles from WTC' showing the towers framed by an apartment window, with no intervening buildings, and a disembodied family off-camera making cod comments
- An old guy covered in WTC fallout flour saying "I'm 69 years old, but I can run faster than the towers'. This could be a visual reference, does anyone recognise this from a History Channel '102 Minutes' mockumentary?
- Cameraman running up the escalators in what's depicted as being WTC7, with a half-masked Latino Secret Service Policeman giving a long soliloquy in a Building 7 carpark.

I really hope you've seen this content before, and the pixel fairy hasn't been busy again

Seemed to be a lot of 'number' referencing again over the w/e such as:

11-9: http://www.bbc.com/news/technology-27265853

This one caught my eye on Sky News as it had referenced 300 houses and 2,700 people missing which of course worked out to 9 people per household plus the 2+7 and the fact it is in Afghanistan to begin with: http://www.heraldnet.com/article/201405 ... -landslide

There were at least two others that I can't find relating to '93' [I think one was regarding the Euromillions and the other UK politics, bear in mind it was only after realizing I was hearing these 'numbers' I tried to see if I could find the news item but couldn't/didn't, however just 'googling' the BBC I find this on 01/May:

93 resiidents: http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-is ... n-27234969
93% rise Facebook: http://www.bbc.com/news/technology-27230468
93% of crimes: http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-wales-27234589

Then for 30/Apr this:
Ethiopia and 93% increase in tourism: http://www.bbc.com/news/business-27112468[url][/url]
Alstom with 93 thousand employees being bought by GE: http://www.bbc.com/news/business-27217339

27/Apr:
Korean ship, 93 divers taking part: http://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-pacific-27176844

25/Apr:
Shanghai studies 93 obese people: http://www.bbc.com/news/health-27116640
22/Apr:

Indonesia and transgenders: http://www.bbc.com/news/blogs-news-from ... e-27111995
93 deaths from MERS in KSA: http://www.bbc.com/news/health-27108568

This is just [almost] a random sampling of what's on the 'Beeb' plus there is a large number of odd news items involving people of 93 years of age dying from disease, being run over etc. rather than just 'expiring'.

For this week's poll on favorite In-Your-Face classics of American propaganda, the nominees are:

"Der Fuehrer's Face" (originally titled Donald Duck in Nutzi Land) from the folks at Disney (1943 - Academy Award for Best Animated Short Film)

In 1937, the Marihuana Tax Act of 1937 was passed in the United States. It levied a tax on anyone who dealt commercially in cannabis, hemp, or marijuana. The reasons that hemp was also included in this law are disputed—several scholars have claimed that the Act was passed in order to destroy the US hemp industry, with the primary involvement of businessmen Andrew Mellon, Randolph Hearst, and the Du Pont family.
