An unsatisfactory feeling

Yeah I know the conventional wisdom… The West and Russia/China are battling to secure oil and pipleines etc. How come then I can’t shake the feeling that really, it’s all lobbox?

What does it matter if there is an elite in America and the UK (a particularly murderous elite it must be said) which secures it’s status or an elite in Russia/China? (Not forgetting Brazil, Venezuela, Australia and India of course).

Truth is, it matters not one jot. The elite, no matter what colour their skin is, no matter what language they speak, act to maintain their privilaged position over the people that surround them. As such, they will always persue policies which keep the masses in ignorance, under repression and economic bondage. Throw in the a nice tantelising middle class to aspire to – to act as a buffer and bob’s your uncle. And do you really think the elite in one country arn’t cosy cousins with the elite in other countries? Of course they are.

This mode of bipolar ecopolitics is just nonsensical idiocy, the people pushing it have and have always pushed it have an intense hatred of Islam.

Russia recognises South Ossetia and Abhkazia as independent states? So what? How many ordinary people will now not be forced to embrace secularism, 9 to 5 and “educational” conformity, while not doing anything about the 3,000 million who live on less than $2 a day.

You have to admit it’s getting better, it’s getting better all the time

So goes one of the lines from the worlds best Album. The Beatles album: Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, an album which often features highly in numerous “best ever” albums.

Beatles magic.

Music trivia aside, what exactly is getting better?

The wording from the ministry of propaganda – the BBC of course.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/7585580.stm

Earlier this month Georgia tried to retake the Russian-backed separatist region of South Ossetia by force after a series of clashes.

Russian forces subsequently launched a counter-attack and the conflict ended with the ejection of Georgian troops from both South Ossetia and Abkhazia and an EU-brokered ceasefire.

The conflict, which began with Georgia’s military offensive into the de-facto region to reclaim it by force, resulted in the loss of 2,000 lives and the displacement of 40,000 people.

So it is getting better, but could be better still! Have I detected a shift from outright lies becasue many of the intelligent public didn’t swallow the BBC (and other corporate media) crap by default? The clear attempts by the BBC to lie and unnecessary demomize Russia have failed miserably and now the BBC is trying to pull itself back (and failing) from its plummeting path of irrelevance and rejection by the worlds thinking people.

Not that the BBC wont repeat the same vile propaganda when the next opportunity arises of course.
