Lessons to Learn from the Jewish Holocaust

I think that death of any kind is a tragedy, but I think the preoccupation with any ethnic group is completely missing the point. The real lessons we should be learning from the Jewish Holocaust should be the real issues that affect us all as humans: 


* The Danger of Fascism and its Destruction of Civil Liberties
* The Consequences of Ethnic Pride
* The Terrible Reality of War
* The Manipulative Power of the Mass Media Organizations
* The Corruption of the Banking System as a Contributor to War
* The Vulnerabilities of the Collectivist Mindset
* The Importance of a Balanced Political Knowledge and Awareness
* The Detrimental Effects of Self-Righteous Foreign Policies


These are lessons that we should have learned, but due to the scapegoating of the Germans and the Nazi regime, and the plethora of sympathy for the Jews, the vast majority of the world has learned virtually nothing from this great tragedy! Stop sympathizing with the Jews who clearly have not learned from the holocaust, and start honoring the dead by learning from our mistakes of the past!

My Views on Climate Change, and its Effects on Civil Liberties

First, I would to clarify to both sides of the argument of climate change that I neither believe, nor disbelieve in global warming. so  who believes that I am a conspiracy theorists or in any way against the current focus of scientific studies, rest assured I believe that any field of scientific inquiry, whether valid in its assumptions or not, is acceptable so long as it does not infringe on the inalienable rights of individuals. Which brings me to my pain point:

I am not so much against climate change, as I am against the lack of transparency in the scientific community surrounding it, the corruption and lobbying efforts on *both* sides of the argument, and (most importantly) I am against any government exploiting science (whether valid in its arguments or not) to generate FUD and use climate change as a reason to expand the size and scope of the federal government.

The reason why I think there is a strong possibility of the government-sponsored investigations being corrupted, is _because_ they were government-sponsored, and furthermore, the two countries involved in the investigations have a long history of using "facts" to mislead the public, and using the mainstream media as their strong arm to push a liberal agenda of government expansion. It has nothing to do specifically with climate change, except in that climate change has enough evidence backing it for the government (and the U.N., which has also become corrupt) to use it as an excuse to expand its powers.

In conclusion, I would like to remind everyone that there are three types of untruths: lies, damned lies, and statistics. So at the very least, the "evidence" of climate change is built on a very unreliable foundation indeed, as its "legitimacy" is almost wholly grounded in statistics, and the interpretation thereof. 

But there's at least one site, founded by the discoverer of Climate change, which at least provide transparency. Now that's progress! http://www.realclimate.org/

Wake Up America- Iran is Not A Threat!

   
Wake up America. Iran is not a threat. Israel is the one stacking up nuclear warheads, Iran is just enriching uranium and creating nuclear fuel rods. Why is it that the threat of the radical Zionist country Israel is completely ignored, and all of the FUD (Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt) is being dumped on Iran, for which despite decades of espionage and sabotage operations, there never beenany evidence of Iran producing nuclear arms. This preoccupation and pissing contest with Iran is absolutely ridiculous!

Ok people, let's look at this in a logical fashion. Iran has an extremely imbalanced economy. Petroleum accounts for 80% of its exports. With oil prices being so volatile, and the overall demand for oil actually leveling off, this kind of situation is an economic nightmare To top it all, all the FUD from Israel, the United States, and other world powers is sanctioning trade with Iran all over the place, so let's put things into perspective:

Iran needs to develop nuclear power to balance its currently impoverished and unstable economy. Considering the political environment of the middle east, Why would Iran develop nuclear weapons,especially when they already know Israel already has nuclear arms and the means to deploy them,not to mention a military force so good at what they do, that they are the preferred partner for the U.S. to train our soldiers?

For once, instead of taking the FUD approach, let's be logical and insert a little rational, Occum's razor in there. Think you can do that? If so, that would be greatly appreciated!
