Amn Dawla and the Manufacture of Terrorists Attacks

March 8, 2011 by

2

Featured image via @AElMassry The storming of the Amn Dawla (State Security) headquarters in Alexandria by the Egyptian people is more than the beginning of the end for the secret police. It represents the incredible changes ongoing in Egypt, to be sure; changes which are noble and greatly needed. However, information arising from information recovered […]

WikiLeaks and US Gov’t Institutionalised Stupidity

February 18, 2011 by

10

I was doing some house-cleaning on my computer and various online accounts, and I found a little gem which I’d like to share. This is a message which I sent off to the State of Washington Attorney General on 14.12.2010. No, not this Rob McKenna, the other one. Dear Mr McKenna, As you are probably […]

The Pan-Arab Revolution: A Perfect Storm of Freedom

February 14, 2011 by

0

During the final days of former Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak’s dictatorship, US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said “the Middle East is facing a perfect storm”. Senator John McCain called the protests a “virus”. This was, to be certain, not the most complimentary of things to be said, by the self-proclaimed most free country on […]

Just to Prove a Point: Mubarak was Cold War Dinosaur

February 12, 2011 by

0

When I wrote that Mubarak (see here and here) was a Cold War dinosaur, I meant it. This just came over the Twitter feed, via Anonymous Quebec: But the critical moment came on the evening of 30 January when, it is now clear, Mubarak ordered the Egyptian Third Army to crush the demonstrators in Tahrir […]

The Rise of Egypt, the Fall of the US

February 3, 2011 by

0

Day 10 of the Egyptian Revolution, and as of yet there has really been no clear stance taken by the US government. Both President Obama and Secretary of State Clinton have made statements which, in my opinion, amount to hand-wringing. Spokesman Robert Gibbs is generally unwatchable due to his odiousness, but he took the cop-out […]

Why the US is Panicked, Part 1

January 9, 2011 by

3

A good chunk of the original Facebook version of this thread was lost, but I developed the idea beyond its first exposition. So, here I again present the idea, using new concepts and terms which I arrived at in the course of the sadly deceased thread. Many loud and violent negative reactions have arisen about […]

Open Letter to Secretary Hillary Clinton

January 9, 2011 by

7

Dear Secretary Clinton, It has come to my attention that the US is going to host UNESCO’s World Press Freedom Day 2011. I take this as a good sign! Because of the great importance of this event, I am confident you will use the opportunity to make it clear that the US government is firmly […]

Why I’m here

January 9, 2011 by

13

Welcome to the Time Out Corner. I’m here, because Facebook doesn’t like me: my account has been deactivated. I am an active WikiLeaks supporter, and I made no bones about that. I’m a polite and careful person. Anyone who has read my posts on Facebook knows that. Anyone new here will see that fairly quickly. […]
