This is the Movie Aaron Russo Ripped Off

I get a lot of comments and email from people quoting Russo’s movie, which is an absurd mish mash of conspiracy theories culled from the fringe right and fringe left cobbled together to “prove” that you don’t have to pay income taxes. My friends from the tax protest movement, and anyone who believes in any of the Illuminati/Freemason/skull and bones nonsense that floats around the ‘net, will be interested to see this film, which compiles them all into a simple paranoid framework. The Capitalist Conspiracy by G. Edward Griffin is the grandfather of all conspiracy movies filmed in the ’60’s. It is also complete bunk. It’s in five parts on YouTube, but I’ll embed it here for easier viewing:

Unlike the tax protest movement, at least Griffin doesn’t turn his conspiracy into an anti-Semitic rant. So boys, since you won’t provide any real sources for your claims I’ve done it for you. Here it is in all its glory, the source of all your theories. But wait a second, doesn’t Russo claim he had first hand knowledge of the conspiracy?

Yet his movie is suspiciously reminiscent of Griffin’s. Hmmmm, could it be that Russo’s a lying fraud? You tell me.

Critical Mass Cycle Cult Attacks Family!

When will the police stand up to this cult of spandex clad eco-terrorists who are criticized even by those who support them for the frequent violent clashes that the hardcore members intentionally provoke? Here in NYC these heathen are almost always instigating violence on the streets, but nothing that has been done here compares with this new outrage in San Fransisco where Critical Mass riders attacked a minivan containing a couple and their two children and three pre-teen friends of the couple’s daughter. The family was celebrating the birthday of their 11-year old daughter when the attack, which caused $5000 in damage to the minivan, occurred.

It was reported that cyclists shattered the back window while the terrified children screamed and cried for help. The leering mob ignored the occupants tears as they savaged the vehicle in full view of SF Police who have no ability to control the filthy mobs of neo-hippies. Critical mass is the darling of the far left who encourage the protests to be as violent as possible, and as their protests grow in size they will grow in violence until the police put the brakes on the excesses of these rolling caravans of mayhem.

Hopefully no one will die before they do.

The Jihad No One Wants to See

FrontPage has a powerful essay by a Buddhist who questions the tolerance of Islam regarding other faiths, specifically Buddhism. This timely essay is well worth your time to read, as more and more reports on Islamic attacks on Buddhists slip through the virtual media blackout of Jihadism that can’t be blamed on American or Western foreign policy.

The silence coming from the left, especially from the “new age” wing who spent much of the ’90’s worshiping Lord Buddha as the shining example of non-western (thus superior) enlightenment and a font of great wisdom, shows how far multiculturalists will go to be true to their agenda. The left is willing to sacrifice one of the world’s great religions (all of them in actuality) on Mohammed’s bloody altar to prove that they are “in solidarity” with their Jihadist allies. Of course, they’re also willing to turn a blind eye to communist atrocities in Tibet. It is truly sickening.

Leftists on the Attack! Civil War in America Starting?

Hot Air has video of a protest by “liberals” at American University in which Karl Rove was at one point “pelted” with objects by the spoiled children of nouveau riche baby boomers to whom mob violence is considered harmless fun. It certainly doesn’t seem very liberal to attempt to physically attack or call for the murder of people you don’t agree with, but the new left wants to change the way society interacts, so I guess from now on a good liberal arts education will include classes on bomb making and hand to hand combat.

The folks at Digg, (myself included, I’m “Mercyful Fate” on the thread) are in a hot and heavy “debate” with lefties calling the students “Heroic” and righties are understandably going ballistic. It’s like a little mini civil war, which got me thinking about this interview with Orson Scott Card about his new book Empire. The left and right in this country couldn’t be further apart, not just in ideology, but culturally and morally. The idea of a civil war starting seems laughable to the right; after all we own most of the guns and much of the military is made up of red blooded freedom loving patriots.

But the radical left courts violent elements that are inherently dangerous. Neo-Nazis and Jihadists have allied amongst themselves, and with the larger anti-War movement. The far left in this country is building up an alliance of violent elements with promises of change, and as the Dems settle into their new power, changing very little, this alliance will become a dangerous, disenfranchised army in our midsts. So the question is this: is there going to be a civil war in this country in our lifetime?

UPDATE: Here’s a news report that includes a short interview with one of the students involved.
