Free and fair elections, a circus!

The world has entered a new phase of political charades; you may have heard the platitude, “free and fair [democratic] elections” – that slogan, along with spreading democracy, was incessantly repeated as the second justification for the Iraq invasion/occupation. The WMD lie had served its purpose it was time to move on to the next phase of the planned takeover of Middle East energy resources. But first we should trace a brief history of the charade called ‘free and fair elections.’

From the American inauguration of computerised (result ensured) voting, to the recent staged-managed elections of Putin’s Russia, to the future rigging of Pakistani elections – voting and elections in the 21st century could best be described as circuses!

If anyone took the trouble to follow the evolution of computerised voting and its failure outside the USA, one would have been rewarded with wry delights and much humour. Kids and IT professionals in Europe had a field day breaching ‘security’ implementations in ‘dedicated’ voting systems by demonstrating to the world how easily these systems could be made to play chess!

Populations outside America refused to be treated as chumps and forego the last remaining symbol/vestige of democracy, the right of the people to select a leader (from candidates offered to them by vested interests -- roaring laughter from near and far!)

Kids in Europe had 'dedicated' computer-voting systems playing chess in less than hour – a bit of an anti-climax as most people outside the USA were already aware that Dubya’s last two elections were fixed.

Aware of the Russian people’s cynicism, shrewdness and scepticism, Putin opted for socially managed election outcomes. There is no denying the popular Russian leader would have won a huge victory regardless, but he needed over 70% of the vote to ensure an increased presence and powers and so good ol’ intimidation and incentives were utilised to guarantee an outcome.

Our bet for the Pakistani ‘free and fair’ elections will be some sort of US trick but the people will openly revolt if the outcome does not reflect the popular vote/choice; of this you can be sure – good luck, Uncle!

Down here in Oz we stick to the tried and proven tradition of selecting our leader from two candidates who serve the same interests – the people live in the belief that they have exercised their rights and the plutocrats continue to rule the nation unimpeded.

The sheeple would probably forego their right to vote if the results were acceptable but ‘free and fair elections’ in Iraq have produced a non-representative, puppet government – fancy that! Russia however, has produced the best option/leader the nation had to offer. Regardless of the outcome of Oz elections the nation remains servile to America, a very bad choice of colonial master as America is careering to its own ‘cleverly’ engineered destruction!

Not a lot to be said in favour of the free and fair electoral processes of 21st century ‘democracies,’ especially in consideration of the fact that the world’s most successful nation, China, does not allow the common sheeple to select its leaders. China today is an amazing success story in every sense except human rights yet it is the ‘free and fair’ democracies of the coalition of the willing that hold the WORLD record for crimes against humanity with an ongoing holocaust in Iraq that has already claimed over one million innocent civilian lives and displaced over four million other persons! I warn American readers and religious hypocrites alike, the infant death toll in Iraq has reached up to the Lord of Sabaoth! There is no worse crime on this earth than infanticide.

“A curse is on him who is building his house by wrongdoing, and his rooms by doing what is not right; who makes use of his neighbour without payment, and gives him nothing for his work;” -- Jeremiah 22:13

It’s YOUR RELIGIOUS TEXT, you most despicable, murdering, hypocrites – justice is always served, especially to nations that drink the blood of little children in order to enjoy their gluttonies and opulence.

This is America as defined by its own creeds, actions and belief systems:

Revelation 17:5-6
“And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.

And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration.”

Revelation 18:
“Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen… she shall be utterly burnt with fire… Alas, alas, that great city Babylon, that mighty city! For in one hour is thy judgement come… And the merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her… for in one hour is she made desolate.”

There is only one nation that has the blood of so many innocents on its hands today and has corrupted an entire world with perverse material values at the cost of so many innocent lives!

Enjoy what you think you have achieved through your machinations and murders. Your book describes a fitting end.

In ONE HOUR WILL YOU BE REDUCED to ASHES! A concerted continental nuclear attack from Russia and China to rid the world of its filth! [They are now aware there is no choice, regardless of cost.]

But I suppose I must first detonate this ‘thing’ in New York City.
