Neoliberal News of the Day – Dec. 5th, 2012

by Scott Creighton

Morsi supporters and people who actually have Egypt’s best interest in mind are driving out the state department funded “opposition” to the new constitution - “Mohamed Mohy, a pro-Mursi demonstrator who was filming the scene, said: “We are here to support our president and his decisions and save our country from traitors and agents.”

Meanwhile, one politician in Egypt suggests maybe they could “rewrite” some of those passages of the constitution that Hillary’s color revolution thugs take exception to.  Coincidentally, Hillary herself said the exact same thing today. “Vice President Mahmoud Mekky said amendments to disputed articles could be agreed with the opposition.” Yes, of course, a small minority of neoliberal supporters of the former dictator want a consensus, they want to write the constitution themselves, so of course, why not?

Jason Ditz of AntiWar is at it Again – Supporting State Department Destabilization Propaganda

by Scott Creighton

Egypt’s “new Pharaoh.” or Hillary’s Vengeful Scorn?

The MSM is reporting on the “massive uprising” taking place in Egypt in response to President Mohamed Morsi’s recent decrees. The problem is, the protests aren’t any more “massive” than the ones staged by the U.S. state department in Iran a few years ago or those in Russia last year. There’s a reason for that: the state department and Israel are angry at Morsi for mediating a quick ceasefire in Gaza and suddenly we have a handful of professional protesters in Tahrir pretending they are the same people who beat Mubarak.

In fact, elected President Morsi is moving to protect the remaining elected parliament that hasn’t been disbanded by the judiciary, attempting to protect the process of writing the new constitution which is being threatened by the judiciary, and planning to set up new trials for Mubarak and his high ranking aides. The judiciary is well understood to be packed with loyal Mubarak holdovers willing to do whatever they can to keep the status quo online in Egypt.

Jason Ditz is over at AntiWar doing his part to sell the state department sideshow to his readers calling it the start of the “next revolution”.

I’m sure Hillary and the IDF appreciate his efforts but you shouldn’t. Here’s what Hasbara Ditz get’s wrong or leaves out of the story entirely. It’s a substantial amount of information but rather hard to accidentally miss…

“Blue Bra Girl” Video: A Remarkable Story of Horror and Heroism

by Scott Creighton

A reader left a comment on a video posting of mine. His comment was pertaining to a different video, a viral video that shows the Egyptian military police attacking a group of protesters who were running away from the scene. The reader’s comment links back to his own website where he has posted an article suggested that the “Blue Bra Girl” video may have been staged because the man kicking the woman as she was down was wearing sneakers instead of the type of boots the other military police were wearing.

I decided to find the video again (the reader’s web article does not provide the video, just a still screen shot of the guy wearing sneakers) and see what there is to see in it.

I have to admit, I am very skeptical of any so-called “revolutions” these days especially in Egypt since their original revolution was hijacked by the military junta that’s now in place.

After watching the video it’s clear to me that what is shown in the video is very real and there is a rather remarkable untold story that unfolds in it involving a couple that was simply walking down the street when all of this occurred who may have in fact paid with their lives for attempting to come to the aid of the poor protester now known as “blue bra girl”

Bloodshed in Tahrir Square Again

by Scott Creighton

Bodies are literally piling up in Egypt again as protesters, angry about the direction the military junta is trying to take their country after the people overthrew the corrupt Mubarak regime, fought back against the military police who cleared Tahrir Square two nights ago using teargas and truncheons, burning tents and possessions of the protesters in their wake. The protesters came back yesterday and the battle was on. Two died yesterday and officially the number is up to 11 today for a total of 13 civilians killed in the protests by a government the US is still backing. Where are the calls for regime change like those from Libyan “rebels”, Syrian “activists”, and the Western politicians who support all of them?

Videos of Police Brutality in Spain

(H/T Prison Planet)

Could you imagine the outcry if this were taking place in Iran? We would be at war in hours.

They are wearing riot gear, masks, no name tags, no faces… beating on children.

Go here to watch new videos being uploaded now.

In this video, watch the fascist thugs get chased from the square by thousands of protesters.

One of our “democratic” partners in the Global Free Market Wars shows us how they deal with protests (ie: the will of the people) when it comes to pushing their austerity measures programs on their own people.

Watch as Spain unleashes their own jack-booted thugs (dressed out like Storm Troopers in black) on young Spanish protesters.
