Thanks for sharing this, I loved that musical and I still do. An isle of optimism.
‘Isle of optimism ‘ – yep!
And you’ll never guess what happened to me today – first time ever!
Got shat on.
By a pigeon.
On the thigh- just between the cafe awning and the table,
Fortunately was wearing my old painting pants….
What’s going on?
Are these Banderites birdies?
CIA avian barbarians?
Zionist thugs?
Coordinated, trained in Langley to ‘rain on our Vineyard parade’?
I await news of a ‘third’ victim before jumping to – crappy – conclusions…;-)
Something I heard when I was a kid about 5.
Little birdy in the sky
drop their whitewash in your eye
ain’t you glad that cows can’t fly?
It’s a bird hobby — they think it’s funny. They always have. Bird’s the word.
Eimar, it looks like the pigeon who did the same to me a couple of days ago, did this to you…listening here in the Cafe…
A novel way to treat racists:
Customers livid over black model in sportswear ad can apply to ‘I’m racist’ email address for refund
https://www.rt.com/viral/377096-slovakia-racist-sportswear-commercial/
“Comments on the photo quickly turned into a heated racial debate on immigration and multiculturalism, with some of the most disturbing comments describing the black athlete as “a monkey in clothes” and “a murderer.” One commenter promised to boycott the company, while another warned that the ad campaign would only “discourage” potential buyers, as majority-white Slovaks wouldn’t relate to it.
“The person in our picture is our good friend Dennis. He’s European, just like you. [He] has a university degree, a figure that you’ll never have, and a beautiful wife at home (who is white and blond),” Pecko wrote in an entry from February 7 on the company’s blog.
The CEO went on to denounce racial prejudice in strong terms, defending his company’s position as a global brand represented in over 40 countries. He also said the company would be “happy” if one “racist” commenter stopped wearing Nebbia’s clothing as promised, “so we won’t have to feel ashamed because of him.”
As the first blog post only seemed to add fuel to the fire, Pecko then vowed to make good on his promise to refund disgruntled customers in full. However, the offer came with a catch: to receive compensation, outraged buyers would have to send their requests to somrasista@nebbia.sk – a newly-set up email address that means “I am a racist” in Slovak.
While Pecko acknowledged that the decision would likely result in economic losses, he expressed no regrets, writing “maybe we were crazy, but we stand by our word!”
The zio-gay media, a paragon of truth, tolerance and diversity…
Fake News, Real Censorship: Trump Supports Sanders After He Gets Cut Off by CNN
https://sputniknews.com/us/201702121050603718-trump-sanders-cnn-fake-news/
“The interview began rather ordinarily, with Sanders toeing the Democratic Party line about Russia interfering in the US elections, and accusing the Russian President of being a “thug.” The senator called the accusations of Flynn meeting the Russian ambassador “troubling” and suggested that the president had some explaining to do.
Trump himself had earlier commented on the report involving Flynn by saying he hadn’t seen it and knew nothing about it.
Asked by his interviewer if that was a problem, Sanders quipped: “Well I don’t know. Maybe he was watching CNN fake news. What do you think?”
Following a short uncomfortable pause, Sanders quickly added “It was a joke,” before his sound feed was cut. Sanders could be seen onscreen looking confused for several more seconds before his video was also cut.”
Now that is freedom of expression at work, zionazi style. Waiting for the zio-gays at cnn to top that one. :D
I never really paid much attention to the millennium report. I have been reading there for the last two hours and am flabbergasted. There is just enough “crazy” there to give those inclined to be dismissive grounds for that attitude. But there is so much deep information and so many connections convincingly explained that I will be spending much of my time there until I have it all read (at least from 11.16). Fresh information and new awareness (if you can smile past the new age craziness here and there) while following the money trail.
A few teasers :
“Trump is a bankruptcy expert. He’s a specialist in this area of expertise which will come in very handy for what the United States is about to face. That is quite obvious to anyone who has studied the economic and financial landscape of the USA.”
“For the uninitiated, there is only one way out of the current predicament for the Global Economic & Financial System (GE&FS). Because the central banks of the world, like the Federal Reserve System, were set up as an international banking crime syndicate, the banksters have made off with all the loot. In so doing, nations large and small, rich and poor are now crushed by their sovereign debt loads. Likewise, the people of most nations are even more burdened by mortgage loan debt, credit card debt, school loan debt, and other forms of personal debt. Similarly, Corporate America and cities have their overwhelming share of corporate bond debt and municipal bond debt, respectively.
“Both in the USA and the EU, the policies of ZIRP* and NIRP*, respectively, have literally destroyed the economic systems and financial architecture—irreparably. Therefore, there must be a major reset throughout the GE&FS . . .
“Executing such an unprecedented reset (and unparalleled rehab) will take the presence of a true master. Such a one who truly operates outside of the central banking box and political sphere, but who is surrounded by financial engineers and economic technicians, is in the best position to marshal the nation through this very formidable yet inevitable process of controlled demolition.
There is no other way out.
“During the Clinton years, Cheney served as CEO of Halliburton, a leading oil and gas industry service provider with an enormous position in Kazakhstan. Cheney also served Nazarbayev as a member of Kazakhstan’s Oil Advisory Board. The relationship continued when Cheney came to the White House with Bush Jr., and Nazarbayev sought Cheney’s advice and intervention in connection with a Justice Department corruption investigation. There was lingering suspicion in Congress that Cheney intervened to slow down the Justice Department’s management of the Kazakh corruption investigation which eventually slowed to a stop.
“KEY POINT: Nazarbayev and members of his immediate family have accumulated some of the largest private fortunes in the world in oil, gas, telecommunications, hospitality, construction materials, banking and finance. Nazarbayev is one of the wealthiest men in the world.”

………………….
More on Kazakhstan as the pivot of world events:
“On September 29, 2006, President Bush hosted the President Nursultan Nazarbayev of Kazakhstan at the White House. The State Department firmly opposed the visit, as did staffers at the National Security Council. But Nazarbayev had a closely guarded relationship with the power behind the throne in Washington–Vice President Dick Cheney.”
http://themillenniumreport.com/2017/02/how-trump-averted-world-war-iii/
……………………
and from a link there,
“One of the best kept secrets which predicated the inevitable collapse of Soviet communism and the subsequent breakup of the USSR is that it actually occurred in a manner not too unlike a carefully controlled demolition. Only in this case they were bankers and politicians, investment brokers and power-brokers who actually pressed the buttons. All of the plans toward that end were fastidiously laid by these stakeholders, each of whom had the greatest interest in exploiting the vast wealth of the Russian Motherland.” http://stateofthenation2012.com/?p=8159
“Nazarbayev and members of his immediate family have accumulated some of the largest private fortunes in the world in oil, gas, telecommunications, hospitality, construction materials, banking and finance.”
Good for him. Unfortunately, his impressive accumulated wealth is not really his, as he – like Qaddafi and a thousand of others ‘nouveau riche’ – has to relay on the Rothschild & Co. infrastructure in banks, trading, gold storage, money transfer system (SWIFT), Intel services, security, data inscription, investment advice, etc.
To cut through the chase: All the riches Nazarbayev beliefs to be his own, will be stolen from him and will be returned to their god-given owners, Rothschild & Co.
Thanks for reminding me of the millenium report. Was there from the very start, but unfortunately haven’t been there for a year or so.

And here is a black-hat the Monster in the period of Gorbachev’s perestroika crawled in the USSR, where in the early 1930s, was thrown out by Joseph Stalin and all this time holed up overseas, in Brooklyn, new York, where to this day it is a head rate. Today Chabad nests scattered throughout the former Soviet Union, the largest and most strategically important are located in Ukraine and Russia. But if Russia Chabad “capital” is, of course, Moscow, in Ukraine, “Metropolitan” center of Chabad became Dnipropetrovsk – the birthplace of the Seventh Lubavitcher Rebbe, Menachem Mendel Schneerson, the last Chabad of the führer, after the death cultists proclaimed Moshiach, i.e. Messiah. (Small clarification: M. M. Schneerson was born in Nikolaev, but at an early age he moved with his parents in Ekaterinoslav, now Dnepropetrovsk, which chabadniks believe the actual homeland of the Rebbe).
Over the last ten, twenty years, Chabad Lubavitch has usurped the chief Rabbinats of most Western nations against great resistance from moderate Jewish organizations who represent the vast majority of Jewry.
Instructive exchange between Bashar al Assad and a belgian journalist. Assad negotiates the western media minefield surprisingly well.

Russian Start-ups Continue to Multiply. And No, They’re Not Selling Fur Hats
New small businesses celebrate the unique creative spirit of Russia
Paul Goncharoff
Recently I was introduced to such a small business, a one-person fashion startup called “Born2bRU”. What drew me was that it started growing organically, by customer word of mouth, loyal fans and not through investors or loans. The very creative owner, designer and do-everything person is Lena. She was born during the last years of the Soviet Union in a rural logging region of Siberia.
She had to learn about business, finance, risk, budgets, law and all the myriad details that comprise living in an all-of-a sudden hard competitive world, without safety nets, by jumping in and doing things on her own. The volatile vicissitudes of her career are an accurate reflection of what Russia as a whole went through in order to find itself, and this journey continues today.

Late night reflections on the best of Germany…………………
Ode To Joy – Poem by Friedrich Schiller
Joy, thou beauteous godly lightning,
Daughter of Elysium,
Fire drunken we are ent’ring
Heavenly, thy holy home!
Thy enchantments bind together,
What did custom stern divide,
Every man becomes a brother,
Where thy gentle wings abide.
Chorus.
Be embrac’d, ye millions yonder!
Take this kiss throughout the world!
Brothers—o’er the stars unfurl’d
Must reside a loving Father.}
Who the noble prize achieveth,
Good friend of a friend to be;
Who a lovely wife attaineth,
Join us in his jubilee!
Yes—he too who but {one} being
On this earth can call {his} own!
He who ne’er was able, weeping
Stealeth from this league alone!
Chorus.
He who in the great ring dwelleth,
Homage pays to sympathy!
To the stars above leads she,
Where on high the {Unknown} reigneth.}
Joy is drunk by every being
From kind nature’s flowing breasts,
Every evil, every good thing
For her rosy footprint quests.
Gave she {us} both {vines} and kisses,
In the face of death a friend,
To the worm were given blisses
And the Cherubs God attend.
Chorus.
Fall before him, all ye millions?
{Know’st} thou the Creator, world?
Seek above the stars unfurl’d,
Yonder dwells He in the heavens.}
Joy commands the hardy mainspring
Of the universe eterne.
Joy, oh joy the wheel is driving
Which the worlds’ great clock doth turn.
Flowers from the buds she coaxes,
Suns from out the hyaline,
Spheres she rotates through expanses,
Which the seer can’t divine.
Chorus.
As the suns are flying, happy
Through the heaven’s glorious plane,
Travel, brothers, down your lane,
Joyful as in hero’s vict’ry.}
From the truth’s own fiery mirror
On the searcher {doth} she smile.
Up the steep incline of honor
Guideth {she} the suff’rer’s mile.
High upon faith’s sunlit mountains
One can see {her} banner flies,
Through the breach of open’d coffins
{She} in angel’s choir doth rise.
Chorus.
Suffer on courageous millions!
Suffer for a better world!
O’er the tent of stars unfurl’d
God rewards you from the heavens.}
Gods can never be requited,
Beauteous ’tis, their like to be.
Grief and want shall be reported,
So to cheer with gaiety.
Hate and vengeance be forgotten,
Pardon’d be our mortal foe,
Not a teardrop shall him dampen,
No repentance bring him low.
Chorus.
Let our book of debts be cancell’d!
Reconcile the total world!
Brothers—o’er the stars unfurl’d
God doth judge, as we have settl’d.}
Joy doth bubble from this rummer,
From the golden blood of grape
Cannibals imbibe good temper,
Weak of heart their courage take—
Brothers, fly up from thy places,
When the brimming cup doth pass,
Let the foam shoot up in spaces:
To the goodly Soul this glass!
Chorus.
Whom the crown of stars doth honor,
Whom the hymns of Seraphs bless,
{To the goodly Soul this glass}
O’er the tent of stars up yonder!}
Courage firm in grievous trial,
Help, where innocence doth scream,
Oaths which sworn to are eternal,
Truth to friend and foe the same,
Manly pride ’fore kingly power—
Brothers, cost it life and blood,—
Honor to whom merits honor,
Ruin to the lying brood!
Chorus.
Closer draw the holy circle,
Swear it by this golden wine,
Faithful to the vow divine,
Swear it by the Judge celestial!}
Rescue from the tyrant’s fetters,
Mercy to the villain e’en,
Hope within the dying hours,
Pardon at the guillotine!
E’en the dead shall live in heaven!
Brothers, drink and all agree,
Every sin shall be forgiven,
Hell forever cease to be.
Chorus.
A serene departing hour!
Pleasant sleep beneath the pall!
Brothers—gentle words for all
Doth the Judge of mortals utter!}

Best of German Song IMHO : Brahms Op. 31a
Johann Wolfgang Goethe: Gedichte – Wechsellied zum Tanze
Die Gleichgültigen:
Komm mit, o Schöne, komm mit mir zum Tanze;
Tanzen gehöret zum festlichen Tag.
Bist du mein Schatz nicht, so kannst du es werden,
Wirst du es nimmer, so tanzen wir doch.
Komm mit, o Schöne, komm mit mir zum Tanze;
Tanzen [verherrlicht den] festlichen Tag.
Die Zärtlichen:
Ohne dich, Liebste, was wären die Feste?
Ohne dich, Süße, was wäre der Tanz?
Wärst du mein Schatz nicht, so möcht ich nicht tanzen,
Bleibst du es immer, ist Leben ein Fest.
Ohne dich, Liebste, was wären die Feste?
Ohne dich, Süße, was wäre der Tanz?
Die Gleichgültigen:
Laß sie nur lieben, und laß du uns tanzen!
Schmachtende Liebe vermeidet den Tanz.
Schlingen wir fröhlich den drehenden Reihen,
Schleichen die andern zum dämmernden Wald.
Laß sie nur lieben, und laß du uns tanzen!
Schmachtende Liebe Vermeidet den Tanz.
Die Zärtlichen:
Laß sie sich drehen, und laß du uns wandeln!
Wandeln der Liebe ist himmlischer Tanz.
Amor, der nahe, der höret sie spotten,
Rächet sich einmal, und rächet sich bald.
Laß sie sich drehen, und laß du uns wandeln!
Wandeln der Liebe ist himmlischer Tanz.
I follow the sense of it but my German is too far deteriorated to translate it adequately. Find a recording if you can — TRANSCENDENTAL use of limited media (piano and choir) to make the ineffable palpable.
Like his Waldhorn Trio op. 40 — a pure, perfect gem crystal in music.
Thanks guys for the shared beauties, good to have some soul building lull between the war-rooms !
And another – from the inimitable Celina Gonzalez – spiritus mundo:
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=5y8AprecpGk
Mundo ist Krebs und Fisch Mundo ist Wasser
Wasser das tanzende viert’ Element
Mundo tanzte getanzt und tanzt weiter
Solange das Beinpaar die Gravitas stemmt
Seine Schatz hat ihn einst aus dem Geist gescheucht
das Kind war schon weit aus dem Haus
‘jetzt komm’ oder versauer’ sie zog ihn vom Buch
so entging er dem Altersgreis-Fluch
Und “die Bluesign” spielten das Lied von dem
der den Bach aus der Kindheit besucht
in den “mogst noch ned ma deine Fieas neihäng’n lass’n”
und im traurigen Moll klagt der Fluch
Und die Boogies und Shuffles haben Lebensgeist
geweckt in den folgenden tanzenden Jahren
Afrika, Latin, in Hechendorf beim Johny nicht weit zu fahren
im Ort Marianne, Im Obern Weissn, bei Helmut im Augustiner
im Zacherl, bei Robert, im Krönner Cafe, und zum Auftakt im Hof der Cantiner
Auch auf Straßenkonzerten und im Pizza -Restaurant
steht Mundo plötzlich auf und tanzt
wenn Groover groovt und Marcel basst
und Mundo dazu strawanzt
und normale Menschen fühlen erstaunt
oh tönende Magie des Moments
wo die lauschenden Seelen ins Schwingen
kommen und der tanzende Narr sie entgrenzt
Mundo is Cancer and Pisces and water
Water is dancing fouth element
Mundo has danced and will keep on dancing
Since an evening deep in December commenced
When he and his wife beloved went
To a place a mile away from his chair and his book
Where “die Bluesig’n” played the sad song of the brook
but the boogies and Shuffles created fresh hips
in the bloke and a smile on sweathearted wife’s lips
For the following years each week again
there was “Africa” right to reach out
In the neighbor-place “Johny” in Hechendorf
and life gigs again around the corner
to meet and rejoice about
At street-gigs in Pizza-Restaurants jive
certain Mundo suddenly rises
someone’s turning his hips and swinging his weight
far beyond early awkwardness-crisis
and normal folks of the salt of the earth
attend unrepeatable spell
when the unheard music is touching their soul
with a dancing child stomping the hell
Hey folks, English is easier
Cheers
From a fellow Piscean – I learned everything I needed to know before the age of ten from the study of water – be it the trickle from a tap, the flow of mountain stream or the vastness of the glass-green ocean.
There is only Knowing and Being.
Amen.
Wow! Mundo rocks! Mundo flows!
Water, the fish, rocks? Hmmmm:

Actually, Eimar we both missed it: “Mundo ist Krebs”
Crab, not fish. Now I’m Wasserman (the Sea, Aquarius) so I envelope all you salty of the earth creatures. Very modestly, but thoroughly. Or maybe I just haul fresh water? I don’t know. I’m not through Astrology 101 yet.
This I dedicate to Crabman:
https://youtu.be/0isEe5H0ztM
6 minutes on King Crab….decent music for Cafe Krebs und Fisch
OMG, the internet is ridiculous! The vessel I fished Bering Sea king crab season 1976,77 and 78 and Icy Bay Tanner crab twice is on the blasted internet. I’m sending it to Mundo, (Maynard G Krebs…..maybe a relation???) soon.
Here’s Icy Bay: https://youtu.be/MJy4JSImmfY?t=32
Except the tanner crab season there was winter-early spring….no kayaks.
Mt St Elias, first few seconds of the above link feeds the glacier that makes Icy Bay icy.
From glacier at bay’s edge to the peak: “Mount Saint Elias is notable for its immense vertical relief. Its summit rises 18,008 feet (5,489 m) vertically in just 10 miles (16 km) horizontal distance from the head of Taan Fjord, off of Icy Bay.”
We delivered the tanner crab from Icy Bay to New Archangelsk, headquarters of Russian American Fur Company (1741 through the early 1860’s…….)…. More commonly known as Sitka.
https://youtu.be/yEBBccZqx-0
Video shows the Russian Orthodox cathedral St Michael built during the Fur Company’s administration by Alexander Baranof…….the last head of that company, for 3-4 decades away from home in Russia………… zooming out from the church’s clock.
The top half of the church was visible from the dock where we unloaded the crabs…..usually about 50 tons per trip. The street curves around the church. Right in the middle of downtown Sitka….population less than 6000….5th largest in Alaska.
Bro, thank you for the comment.
I have to ad a little correction:” I’m Wasserman (the Sea, Aquarius)”
Aquarius is not the Sea on earth, it is, if you like, the “Sea” in heaven, aka the clouds of rain and wisdom.
Aquarius is the outpourer of “water”.
https://www.google.de/search?q=wassermann&client=firefox-b&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjjiqeVt4_SAhULliwKHbUlB3YQ_AUICCgB&biw=1067&bih=717#imgrc=mInIKKv14k4YGM:
According, Aquarius is not Water-element but Air. So what in Pisces is deep forgotten truth
to live in, in Aquarius becomes idea and heavenly oversight, to be handed to Capricorn to become Word = “beginning”
I forgot, Mundo i s Cancer (hour of birth) but l i v e s the Pisces-character (birth- d a y)
and this is a piece of Groover from “die Bluesig’n” till 2:25 (I danced that among the sheeples)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wg-rwHTSDIA
Mundo these two musicians look like Deplorables for Trump exploring their roots in Deutschland and “giving back”.
Back in the day (1957), my first visit (of 2) to Bavaria, I returned to the Persian Gulf with lederhosen and a green felt hat with pins stuck in it from all over Europe, especially your castles and cathedrals.
I wore these alpine leather shorts a few times in Arabia and Texas. I told this story to a kind of girlfriend from Berlin (west) that landed in Oakland @ 1979, and she went into an immediate reaction as though the South of Germany was really an embarassment, and began imitating their accents and manners.
I guess you are among the Deplorables, and if she were “Murican” she might have voted for Hillary 11-8-2016??
This piece gives me goosebumps.

Ukraine’s Anti Russian Stance Is a Zionist Masterplan By Sheikh Imran Hosein
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1YF0H5fnvis
RT is reporting Ukraine is using WMD against the population in Donbas. The “question” is,what is to be done with that information. Is it just “one more” of a countless list of criminal actions done by the junta nazis. And will it be “filed” under “bad nazis” in the office “round file”. Or for once will something actually be done with this information. After seeing the last few years,if I was a betting man,I’d bet on the “round file” getting another file.
https://www.rt.com/news/377150-ukraine-wmd-donbass-evidence/
EU quite happy with the Ukraine to continue as they are-despite Greek-Spanish protests to cancel diplomatic relations with their countries……….
“During the Ukrainian Prime Minister’s visit to Brussels on February 10, Juncker, the president of the European Commission, not elected by the people of the EU, granted 600 million to the Kiev regime [*]. Even though less than a week before, the Ukrainian army carried out the worst bombardments against the Donbass and the civilian population, this technocratic entity gives money to a corrupt regime [**].
In December, “Europe” sanctioned Greece because it paid a thirteenth salary to people receiving a small pension, two months later, this same “Europe” gives money to a regime that bombards civilians and cheerfully robs the Ukrainian people by selling Ukraine to the multinationals [***]. The last sentence of the communiqué in the last link cited says a lot about the betrayal of a president born of a putsch supported by the US / Canada and the EU.”

Lavrov seems to have affirmed
“Sunday, February 12, 2017 – 16:12
The OSCE Mission in Ukraine is working ‘neutrally,’ they have already realized that it is impossible to continue to ‘blanch over’ Ukrainian security forces in Donbass, said Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov.
——————————————
“They (the Ukrainian side) continue to blame ‘with a straight face’ us, or Donbass, even in spite of the reports of OSCE SMM (the Special Monitoring Mission), which has always tried to be neutral,” Lavrov stated.
“If the OSCE SMM registers attacks and notes in their reports areas where these shellings come from, but does not say outright that the shelling started from the AFU side, even such ‘neutrality’ clearly indicates that the mission understands that it is no longer possible to ‘blanch over’ the army of Ukraine and these battalions,” the head of the Russian Foreign Ministry said.

update re Anna Turv, lady who
“Anna explained to Sputnik that she could not leave Ukraine due to complications with her documents. She could not get the documents for repatriation as she was persecuted on political motives. She was forced to apply to the Strasbourg Court of Human Rights to get the required travel documents. She made the case that the Ukrainian government, acting illegally and using prohibited armaments, killed her family and was trying to kill her. In addition to a dead daughter, her other two kids were wounded in government shelling.
She received assistance from Ennio Bordato, the President of the Italy-based Association “Help to Save Children” (Aiutateci a salvare i bambini), who repeatedly applied to numerous international organizations with no result, until the Russian embassy in Rome arranged for new documents to be issued, granting Anna refugee status.”

I really liked the article, General Reshetnikov: Return to the Empire (superbly controversial interview”. As an American, I am deeply saddened that we have lost our exceptionialism. When I say exceptionalism, I mean a Christ likeness in the American society. I believe that America was rallied not around a great leader, such as a Monarch, but raise.around the Christ likeness of society, that of, generosity, compassion, mercy, and goodness to mankind. I think.that even through the 1950s, Americans fought for their national heritage based on these perceived values. Today, the Christian conservatives are thrilled that President Trump has begun a perceived action to revive a Christ likeness in American society. Whether or not he is genuine, and can succeed is another matter. So, as I see Russia at this time, the formation of Christ likeness is key to her success, not a Monarch. Russia needs to define itself as an exceptional people because of its goodness, compassion, mercy, and generosity. I think that because all of these elements of character are breaking through, the evil forces are trying to contain this national pride in Russia’s Christ likeness. I pray that all nations can be exceptional in this way.
[…]I believe that America was rallied not around a great leader, such as a Monarch, but raise.around the Christ likeness of society, that of, generosity, compassion, mercy, and goodness to mankind.[…]
What are you talking about?
What are you fantasizing about?
It was very “Christ-like”, how America was founded on the blood and bones of the Indians.
It was very “Christ-like”, how America exploited the Negros.
It was very “Christ-like”, how America fought against America, brother against brother in the Civil War.
And to this day: it was very “Christ-like”, what America has to offer to the World:
Wars
Regime change & colour revolutions
Coca-Cola

Hollywood
Pornography
LGBT

times will reveal if they are a real christian grains in the soil of the American
soul. Dig that, there is no such thing, like ‘solution. There is only to manage
the unknown of oneself and prevent catastrophes
The blue America seems lost to the blue Empire – the red America, finally
the humble America?
The new world is not to be borne on “the Hill”, but or not, in the soul of poor
everyone and even Rothschild also has only one – so the dearth of the
devil for souls …
What Trump has to deal with is one thing. What a Redneck on this
planet has to deal with, might be of coming interest. I pray for a humble America
in respect for the native heirs of the spirit of the continent.
Paradox: The red President has to work with a blue political establishment. A Twins
always works between the aisles. A Twin as President signifies the existence of
two fractions in the (deep) state. The Twin is the broker of any possible win-win for both of them.
Twin (air) has no position on earth but the higher one.
Is not just America to take the hole blame for all you mentioned above. If a gentlemen invites a lady for a dance with him and she refuses, then he must look for another partner. (if he does not want to dance alone) In other words, the world has accepted the offer because the world likes those things.
The world likes and liked always what is her part and hated all who have refused to dance according to the world. As the world is round, everywhere could be found people who don’t like to accept these ways. But the majority is keen to give in. The other part is suffering. “Don’t be sad that the world is hating you, before you, they hated Me…” ” If you were from this world, the world would have loved you as their own…” Guess who made the revolutions (the real ones) ? always the few who had the light and spiritual energy to attract many.
Join the real world, please.
The followers of John the Baptist (they still survive after all these years) maintain that good and evil are necessarily in balance. If an archangel were to appear here to help the good, a super-devil would appear at the same time to oppose his work. Mankind lives on the knife edge.
Christ did not appear without a historical background which included the ethnic massacres in Exodus, Kings, Chronicles &c.
Same with USA.
Same with RF (starting with the Romanov’s using distribution of alcohol to subvert marginal peoples as state policy — kinder than murder, but hardly Christ-like — and Nikon’s persecution of Old Believers as impediments to Tzar Peter’s social engineering).
All people (culture, history, etc) sh*t, and sh*t stinks. So what else is new ? And who anointed you to be Judge of everybody and everything ? Is moral failing what is important about any group that nothing else matters ?

Maybe you are even right, that I judge too much. Hmmm… Well, then this is my weakness, my shit that stinks. Sorry!
My wish is peace. And harmony. I would like to live in a beautiful garden with brothers & sisters. Sharing, helping and caring. Cooperation instead of competition. Is that stupid? Is that naive? Maybe…
Out of this I look at the world and I could vomit and vomit and vomit…

Assad needs to have a “heart to heart” talk with Putin. And get the Iranians to join in that talk. It “should” be obvious to all by now that Erdogan is playing Russia for fools. He’s using his “new friendly” relationship with Russia to get what he couldn’t before in Syria. He announced yesterday that he intends for his forces to not stop until they seize Raqqa. Now today he says once he gets Raqqa he will form it into his “Syrian safe zone”. Translation for that is a pro-Turkish,anti-Assad ,jihadi mini-state in Syria. If the Russians can’t see that its because they don’t want to see it.And if they are willing to allow it,then they aren’t allies to Syria and Iran. Through his tricks Erdogan is managing to get exactly what NATO wasn’t able to get before.
From RT today:
Turkey’s Erdogan says aims safe zone in Syria after Raqqa operation
President Tayyip Erdogan said on Monday Turkey aimed to create a safe zone in Syria, extending its military operations to the towns of Manbij and Raqqa after driving Islamic State from al-Bab, if it acts together with the US-led coalition. In a speech in Bahrain, broadcast live on Turkish television, Erdogan said the planned safe zone would cover an area of at least 4,000-5,000 square kilometers (3,475 square miles) and would require a no-fly zone. (Reuters)
The unpredictability of Erdogan is that makes him so dangerous. That is also dangerous for himself, no one knows what to expect from him, even his supposed allies.

It’s not post modernists — it’s corporate advertising that mass produced it. Edward Bernays, for one. They often steal real culture, cut it up and smear it with grease paint, and stuff it up your nose trying to get you to buy what they are selling (deodorant, sneakers, war, music CD’s (records), amusement parks. This bastardization of culture always existed, I think, but now it’s an industry in itself. It’s about money at the root.

@Blue —
It started with the rise of mass-market music publishing (music written down to the taste of the lowest common denominator) and newspaper reviews (both in the hands of the orcs).
You might find Wagner’s essays on the topic of interest to you.
I was going to say it started with Bernays, but then I realized that wasn’t the case, and I couldn’t find on ‘starting point’, but rather an acceleration, with advertising being a dominant factor.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advertising#19th_century
…
Egyptians used papyrus to make sales messages and wall posters.[9] Commercial messages and political campaign displays have been found in the ruins of Pompeii and ancient Arabia. Lost and found advertising on papyrus was common in ancient Greece and ancient Rome. Wall or rock painting for commercial advertising is another manifestation of an ancient advertising form, which is present to this day in many parts of Asia, Africa, and South America. The tradition of wall painting can be traced back to Indian rock art paintings that date back to 4000 BC.[10]
…
Thomas J. Barratt from London has been called “the father of modern advertising”.[14][15][16] Working for the Pears Soap company, Barratt created an effective advertising campaign for the company products, which involved the use of targeted slogans, images and phrases. One of his slogans, “Good morning. Have you used Pears’ soap?” was famous in its day and into the 20th century.[17][18]
…
So was that cave the shop of a spear maker with an ad for all the animals you could hunt with Grock’s spears?
Music was along the way, of course, and without reading Wagner I might guess it was about having to write stuff for patrons and audiences. The old masters artists did that.
One thing we might look for, going by artists’ reaction to the Academy and such, and the start of impressionism, abstract art, and similar, is that we are due for another artistic and cultural revolution — but there are many false starts and dead ends with those, and also it takes a while to evolve. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wassily_Kandinsky — they are saying of Kandinsky “He is credited with painting one of the first recognised purely abstract works.[1]” (and also how he was concerned with the spiritual (not liturgical or religious) in art. A factor in making such a revolution difficult is the pervasiveness of mass media. The internet should help with that — same as for political and philosophical revolution. There is a lot of good stuff around if you get away from the corporate media, and can find it.
@Blue
Indeed, we are not disagreeing. But the break point in Europe seems to have been during the life of Beethoven. Using Opus numbers to timeline composers’ works begins around then due to the ability of a recognised great composer to sell what he wrote (mass market). Schubert largely missed out, but Mendelssohn nailed it, and Schumann had the advantage of publishing his own, hugely influential journal that “put him on the map.”
But notice the change. The great ones were obsessed with quality — high quality was its own justification, even if a Missa Solemnis was not going to sell all that many copies. With Schumann resisting but synergic, Mendelssohn (OK, maybe Hummel) initiated the creation of purely commercial music — music written down to the taste of the target audience (in his case, Queen Victoria).
Highest quality music continued to be created and performed, but look at what a tiny percentage of mass sales Brahms, Tchaikovsky, Elgar et al. account for in the avalanche of pure shlock piano music for the daughters of the bourgeouis and music hall shlock.
On the absolutely planned destruction of western culture (are in particular), Miles W. Mathis is indispensable (e.g., mileswmathis.com/papa.pdf )

I watched Watson on Pop-“culture”………the image of a petri-dish overgrown with foul mold comes to mind. Especially the perversion of sensuality and sexuality….both steep, dangerous, and potentially fatal slopes.
Culture in America has always been much weaker than Germany, Italy, France and (very different!) Russia.
This morning, before reading this conversation, I thought of Dennis’ watchful eye, the precarious knife’s edge divide between precious love and perverse lust, rough rugby tackling one could always feel was imminent, even before Isabella’s rebuke and the first official open field tackle and subsequent pile-on, by all of us who were perplexed for so many months.
(I admit I miss the Dionesian, Dylanesque, Dennis-Learycal riffs……page after page)
And for some reason, “It Wasn’t God That Made Honky-Tonk Angels” kept playing in my head.
Now this is funny, because “Country” to me has always been a real joke. Get as offended as you like, it’s “loser” music that is truly pathetic in its attempts at profound meaning, 99.99% of the time, in my humble opinion.
So here’s an opportunity to ridicule American “culture” before it got just plain disgusting as it is today. Wow! This is almost “classical” (hahaha!) by more modern standards!

I’ll dedicate it to Isabella. And Dennis.
It Wasn’t God Who Made Honky-Tonk Angels – Kitty Wells lyrics
As I sit here tonight the jukebox playin’
The tune about the wild side of life
As I listen to the words you are sayin’
It brings memories when I was a trusting wife
It wasn’t God who made Honky Tonk angels
As you said in the words of your song
Too many times married men think they’re still single
That has caused many a good girl to go wrong
It’s a shame that all the blame is on us women
It’s not true that only you men feel the same
From the start most every heart that’s ever broken
Was because there always was a man to blame
It wasn’t God who made Honky Tonk angels
As you said in the words of your song
Too many times married men think they’re still single
That has caused many a good girl to go wrong

What to expect, They did it again and they will do it again as long as they are in power. This is yet again a message, a sicking one, made special for this purpose : to make us sick. There will come times when there will be no place to hide, we will feel relief and they will get the pain and fear for long, long time. I truly believe in that time.

Report on the Oroville dam situation: 180,000 people evacuated and the government is telling us squat… with two days to fix an eroding hole underneath the emergency spillway all the while dealing with a massive split on the main spillway which is spilling water into a 40 ft hole hitting bedrock and threatening the underground lines of the underground power plant? They can’t stop releasing water because a big 5 day long storm carrying 2-3 inches of rain threatens to fill the reservoir to capacity( and using the auxiliary spill off is too dangerous.)
Meanwhile all the other reservoirs are almost a peak capacity. Upstream the reservoir at Shasta Lake is at 98% so with the oncoming storm there will need to be the same strategy in place there—massive release before the storm to contain the incoming water.
Envision two river systems–the Sacramento River on the one side of a triangle ( the Shasta Lake reservoir will dump excess into that river) then on the opposite side to the East there is Oroville dumping excess into the Feather river. Imagine then that the two come together at an apex when the Feather flows into the Sacramento River right near Yuba City/Marysville smack in the middle of prime agriculture lands and levees–many levees.

Ok, Catching up to Larissa who I missed until just now, in reviewing the last Cafe.
Here’s Larissa’s comment about Bannon, Trump, Jared Kushner and spooky numbers, namely Jared’s pad at 666 Park Ave, NY, NY.:
/moveable-feast-cafe-2017-02-09/#comment-321548
and to quote Lara…..I hope she’s Russian…..loved that name ever since I watched Dr Zhivago as a teenager in a theater…….”What´s your point since os keen ion numerology and occult significance of events?”
I always strive to answer direct questions, even though it’s taking me forever to answer kinterra.
Emulating Sitchin in his readings of Sumerian clay tablets rendered imperfectly legible by the ravages of time, I reconstruct the above query as:
“What’s your point since you seem so keen on numerology and occult significance of events?” (How’d I do, Larissa??)
My point in the comment preceding her’s was that Bannon and Bannon/Sarah Palin are works in progress for me, terra incognita, etc. And my secondary point was to have a little fun with L445’s characterization of Bannon as a “pale rider coming to destroy them” (the Deep State, MSM, etc) and Bannon as a “Palin rider”, my invention.
However, now my point is to answer unasked but implied questions in Larissa’s quote above and entire comment in general.
My only interest in hidden things is to be aware of how they might be signals I’d otherwise miss, and would not want to miss in an important event like 911. Numerology may be fun to play around with, but those guys weren’t “playing” were they???
Unless you consider playing a malevolent god “playing”.
The you get the reaction of Larissa, which I totally understand, because my reaction to such things as I have occasionally discussed here was, prior to about a year ago, quite similar to hers.
Namely “That’s strange shit for superstitious people, nothing to do with me, yadayadayada.”
Left brain logic. A certain dullness of right brain intuition. Average person in society.
However, thinking I had all the basics of 911 pretty much under my belt, Mark Passio pretty much showed me otherwise, here:
https://youtu.be/HT04D3Lc1t8
shortest version 9 minutes …..out of 5+ hours on those hidden, ritualistic aspects of the mega-stunt.
In a way that somehow went through every synapsis in my cranium in a nano second, re-evaluating everything I ever thought I knew about the world, history, current strategic situation, etc, more or less instantly.
So that’s serious. But is 666 Park Ave serious? Did the person that assigned or requested that street number (I’ve developed a lot or two before….in some jurisdictions you might ask for and get the # you want…..) do it humorously, or malevolently? It’s very subjective, IMHO. I have discussed that number with people (showing how, numerologically it is the same as 9) and we were both calm as can be, and in another case, the religious black lady shielded her eyes and looked away, freaked out, asking me to change the subject!
I’m more interested in these points that people seem to miss, extremely often:
It’s NOT a matter of what I believe or you believe, primarily, that is the point. The point, with 911 numerology as a good example is what the perpetrators, at the highest, occulted level believe, not what I or Larissa or blue or mundo or anyone else not designing the ritual believes.
This is so obvious to me, but it is evidently a difficult point to communicate. Don’t project your own feelings and prejudices, alone. Consider the wider implications of what might be going on in the consciousness of everyone else that may matter.
Like I said about vot tak’s example of Finnish passengers ignoring Finnair Flight HEL 666, “If you’re on the ball (awake, in control of yourself) you’re under no one’s thrall.”
IMHO Kushner’s address is a bit weird. There might be some strategic significance to it, the way symbols in Pizza-gate have a meaning. OR NOT. I wouldn’t worry about it excessively nor completely ignore it. It’s probably nothing. But if more “signs” like that start popping up regularly with the guy, for darn sure, I’d want to know what the hell (pun intended) is going on with the guy.
More on the general subject later. But to me it’s clear: This is a highly subjective and even sub-conscious area of concern. I want to know what’s going on. I don’t want anything that affects me to be hidden from me. I don’t want to hide anything from anyone else, unless there is a very good reason to keep it a secret. I want a society of people that are more aware, more free, not less conscious.
If people can’t understand what I am getting at here (like my left brain imbalanced computer tech waving off the 911 numerology, as though it couldn’t possibly be of any significance because HE doesn’t get it!!——It’s not about HIM!), that’s a real political/security problem for me and for everyone else. Except the perpetrators of 911 and the dark priesthood class of sick, sick puppies (fat ugly self-loathing old men, more likely) that designed their little ritual for world domination empowerment.
That’s what they want: The empowerment that comes from “knowing” what the unconscious don’t realize, even though it is there in broad daylight, right under their noses.
Others, that are more balanced, more intuitive, get it just fine. As I discovered with my DSL provider. After going through all of it, with him, for fun and practice, as a social consciousness experiment, I added:
“Oh, and furthermore, so you get a sense of the occult mockery often entailed in dark freemasonry, I should add that the “degrees” of freemasonry also refer to temperature.”
Like everything else in my little “on the street” experiment, he said, “Really! I didn’t know that! Tell me more.”
So, I explained that at 32 through 1 degree Fahrenheit, water is frozen. But at 33 degrees it is liquid, and can flow. And flowing water is an ancient symbol of active thought, in motion, i.e.FLOWING, fluid.
“I get it.”, the ATT rep said. “In their minds, we’re all a bunch of blocks of ice, but they’re just starting to get warmed up.”
Now there was a sharp young hispanic Californian that picks up things of this sort more readily than my computer tech. LOL….. After all, computers cannot write decent poetry, or really ANY poetry, can they???

St Valentine at his side
Loves Army draws nigh

“What has kept you so long?”
Her lament most grievous
And this was all her song
“For whom did you leave us?”
O’Leary so shy blushed with shame
As down upon his bended knee
Bethought he to take all blame
“By St Valentine, now marry me!”
But this request she has denied
Riding now with the Armies of Love
And singing over the whole worldwide
St Valentine’s famous song of the dove

When read a poem like that
Hey, I forgot that’s Valentin’s Day,
Thanks to remember with your say
In these sad days of trouble
With bad news and bubble.

With romance yet never told.

Now, listen up Café Gold bugs: I am going to go into the relevance of GOLD on planet earth from 450,000 years ago….. (research 1/2 done) down to NOW.
But let’s go for some cerebral balance now, with (what else??) Poetry!
“Gold is money, nothing else.” JP Morgan
“Gold has been intrinsically worthless to the human species, as a commodity, until very recently, in electronics.” Mark Passio
John Keats. 1795–1821
On First Looking into Chapman’s Homer
Much have I travell’d in the realms of gold,
And many goodly states and kingdoms seen;
Round many western islands have I been
Which bards in fealty to Apollo hold.
Oft of one wide expanse had I been told
That deep-brow’d Homer ruled as his demesne:
Yet did I never breathe its pure serene
Till I heard Chapman speak out loud and bold:
Then felt I like some watcher of the skies
When a new planet swims into his ken;
Or like stout Cortez, when with eagle eyes
He stared at the Pacific—and all his men
Look’d at each other with a wild surmise—
Silent, upon a peak in Darien.
The research is into the Russian born Biblical scholar Zecharia Sitchin. Now I am on the 4th book of his Earth Chronicles consisting of 7 books.
Here’s how it starts, and having lived 1959-1963 in South America, and spent several days in Toldeo, Spain circa 1998 or 1999, I was somewhat blown away by how it starts:

EL DORADO
Nowadays Toledo is a quiet provincial city situated about an hour’s drive south of Madrid; yet hardly does a visitor to Spain miss seeing it, for within its walls there have been preserved the monuments of diverse cultures and the lessons of history.
Its beginnings, local legends tell, go back two millennia before the Christian era and its foundation is attributed to the biblical descendants of Noah. Its name, many hold, comes from the Hebrew “Toledoth” (“Generational Histories”); its olden homes and magnificent houses of worship bear witness to the Christianization of Spain—the rise and fall of the Moors and their Moslem dominion and the uprooting of the splendid Jewish heritage.
For Toledo, for Spain, and for all other lands, 1492 was a pivotal year, for a triple history was made therein. All three events took place in Spain, a land geographically known as “Iberia” —a name for which the only explanation can be found in the term “Ibri” (“Hebrew”)by which its earliest settlers might have been known. Having lost the greater part of Iberia to the Moslems, the warring splintered kingdoms in the peninsula saw their first major union when Ferdinand of Aragon and Isabella of Castile married in 1469. Within ten years of the union they launched a military campaign to roll back the Moors and bring Spain under the banner of Catholicism; in January 1492 the Moors were decisively defeated with the fall of Granada, and Spain was made a Christian land. In March of that same year, the king and queen signed an edict for the expulsion from Spain, by July 31 of that year, of all Jews who would not convert to Christianity by that time. And on August 3 of that same year, Christopher Columbus—Cristobal Colon to the Spaniards—sailed under the Spanish flag to find a western route to India.”
Wow! Historical Gold Mine! First page of The Lost Realms…..treats the mega-monuments in stone of the “New World” and the ancient search for gold (but for WHO, really……??) by its empires: Mayan, Aztec, Inca, etc…..
Edgar Allen Poe
EL DORADO
Gaily bedight,
A gallant knight,
In sunshine and in shadow,
Had journeyed long,
Singing a song,
In search of Eldorado.
But he grew old-
This knight so bold-
And o’er his heart a shadow
Fell as he found
No spot of ground
That looked like Eldorado.
And, as his strength
Failed him at length,
He met a pilgrim shadow-
“Shadow,” said he,
“Where can it be-
This land of Eldorado?”
“Over the Mountains
Of the Moon,
Down the Valley of the Shadow,
Ride, boldly ride,”
The shade replied-
“If you seek for Eldorado!”
Only on Saker could I ever find such a totally classy post to agree with.

Crappy introduction to 1492, namely the Jewish elements in the pre-history of Iberia. Looks like your sources were some Jewish mythical account of their civilizational prowess.
I’m not going to offer corrections, anyone can easily find a non-Jewish factual source for the names Toledo and Iberia. To suggest the existence (let alone naming places) of Jews in central Spain, a region populated by Celts and Iberians at the time of the Romans arrival (around 200 BC), is such gross ignorance that anyone with a modicum of historical awareness would refrain from quoting. Probably from Wikipedia, a faithful mouthpiece for Zionism.
On another tack altogether, http://www.paulcraigroberts.org/2017/02/14/western-interests-aim-flummox-russia/ , whilst l have great respect for M.Hudson I’ll never understand why none of these economists ever suggest creating money as loans to citizens. Seems to me if you want to get an economy firing on all cylinders the way to do it is to create money as debt to individuals, you could set the draw down rate at a subsistence level for those who need it but if anyone has an idea for an enterprise, and it looks like it would work just flick the keyboard create the debt and get them started. Russia could even trial it in various forms in Kaliningrad, Vladivostok and Crimea

“MAJOR OFFENSIVE, BLITZKRIEG BY THE UKRAINE NAZI JUNTA IS PLANNED AFTER THE 18 OF FEBRUARY !
on: February 15, 2017
The Ukraine Military is preparing a powerful military strike against the Republics of Donbass, which will be dealt after the international meetings in Munich and Bonn on 16 and 18 February. This was announced on the TV channel TVC by the Ukrainian military historian, Yuri Dudkin.
Date of Ukrainian Junta offensive in Donbass announced !!”

Hope not………………………
At what time will hostilities commence? Has a time been agreed upon?
From a tactical viewpoint it seems to me rather stupid to let your enemy know your plans.
Given that we are dealing with the Khazar Mafia Junta in Kiev, the fact that they announced it adds to the veracity of the announcement. In any event, they do not fight to win anything other than a few more months of re-channelling IMF loans and US arms shipments/payments. ‘Victory’ for the RADA and the Junta is escaping the noose and the firing squad.
It might be the only way of letting the ATO troops know you’d better sober up damn quick, finish your preparations,dig in and have a bit of practise and believe your orders from on high, any deserters and non-participants will be dealt with-plus of course P.R. for the wannabee’s…..get more tv advertising revenue …….or………could be anything else in the land of make believe………………..remember just a few days EU giving Poro loads of dosh with a big smile on both their faces…………..
Hi there
From where I sit, looking in at the debacle over Flynn’s resignation, it reminds me of an anthill inadvertently (or maybe not so) being a little knocked over by a passing Moose. Frenzy might be an adequate expression regarding the multiple theories/speculations running more or less wild.
(not only here, but all over the internet).
I can understand the anxiety of some, but please, take a deep breath, lean back, and prepare for the next waves that surely will come in large numbers throughout the year, whereof some will be bigger events than this one I’m sure.
I’m with Auslander on this one, as far as not expecting any recent and future Geo-Political events to be just a walk in the park.
Now, after a long walk through the forrest and mountain paths, you reach your cabin to find this:

Now, that is a real crisis! Or what?
Apart from that, we are surrounded by critters who actually do not know about our struggles and dilemmas.
They have their own life and survival problems.
This one is a newcomer in our environment and seems to be staying for a while.
Enjoy

To comment the travels of the gods in the circle of fate is one thing
to comment on the chaos man is living in is another
who is acting with the gods?
who is acting against the gods – or the demons?
and to know you are responsible for nothing else but
your soul. A soul is like a star.
And for those who will find out how to move with the Gods/ archetypes/a.s.o.:
this is another week in the living of us children of the Sun under the Moon:
