Survival Versus Doom

Re the World Cup, The Last Jew agrees with Uri Avnery: “Goyim naches [fun for the gentiles]….Why quarrel? Give each team their own ball.”

Peace threat reported. “A national reconciliation plan for Iraq calls for a timetable for withdrawal of U.S. troops and, controversially, amnesty for insurgents…:” (Newsweek report)
“If the report is true, the silver lining is that this can help the GOP in November. But Doomers MUST implement our contingency plan to blame the loss of Iraq on opponents of the war.” (Lex Luthor)

June 21, 2006 WASHINGTON, June 21 (UPI) — The House of Representatives passed a bill barring the U.S. military from establishing permanent bases in Iraq.

Happy Birthday Dan Berrigan!

BUSH BETRAYS DOOMERS?

Lex Luthor
An Administration peace threat was leaked to ABC News and NBC News last week, with the publication of a memo offering to meet Iran’s terms on the uraqnium enrichment crisis. Doomer pundit Lex Luthor is annoyed but “not really worried.” Read the rest of this entry »

Ramadi is turning into another Fallujah.
AMMAN (IPS) -
Brian Conley
…snipers will kill anyone who moves….
“[T]he Americans are running away from [the Iraqi fighters] . The Americans cannot win an infantry war with them, so they began using massive airpower to bomb them..”
[A visitor to Ramadi] “saw many damaged homes, and said there were no civil services functioning.
“You will see that they bombed the power stations, water treatment facilities, and water pipes. This house is destroyed, that house is destroyed. You will see poverty everywhere. The things that the simplest human in the world must have, you won’t have it there.” read more

In “Looks Like A Long War, Friends”, on June 1, 2006 Tom Hayden wrote, “President Bush apparently has decided to escalate the Iraq War with a US offensive in Ramadi, and ’stay the course’ through the 2008 election cycle, thus ending months of speculation about US troop withdrawals this year….
“This is an out of control bloodbath…. 80 Iraqis are killed or wounded every day. As many as one million Iraqis have fled the country for Jordan.”
“Throw fire around like a mad woman” got to be the order of the day in Indochina (Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia). So too now in Iraq. Dig it, Doomers.

THE NEW POGRAMS The Last Jew talks with Lex Luthor

Week of the Haditha massacre (pogram) contretemps.

Lex Luthor is a Doomer pundit and regular contributor to Survival Versus Doom.

The Last Jew: Excuse me. A massacre is a pogrom?

Lex Luthor: Exactly.

The Last Jew: My father was a young kid during the worst pogram. It was at Kishniev. 45 people were killed. From the soldiers.

Lex Luthor: 45 people?

The Last Jew: Ya. It cast a dark cloud on the whole world, and we never forgot it.

Lex Luthor: Well the Haditha pogram will be famous too, but that shouldn’t worry us. Nearly twice that number of Iraqis are dying every day now. We’ve got spin doctors today who will make Haditha taste like candy.

The Last Jew: Make the pogram taste like candy?

Lex Luthor: Not literally. But they can make it taste good enough. Good enough to swallow.

You’d think people would be revolted, and act accordingly–Right? But what can they do?

Thank god for the spin industry. It’s magnificent.

The industry had a hard time with the Abu Ghraib “scandal” because who was going to believe that a couple of elisted soldiers got out of hand and that was all there was to it? The Abu Ghraib photographs gave Doomers a bloody nose.

But that’s all. Fortunately it’s still taboo to say you have a “gulag.”

After we spin it, the news is just more noise.

The Last Jew: Da news is noise?

Lex Luthor: Exactly.

The Last Jew: Then how do you know vat’s going on?

Lex Luthor: That’s the beauty of it. You don’t! If you just watch tv, you don’t.

I probably shouldn’t be saying this, but the headlines ARE the coverup.

The Last Jew: Vat do you mean?

Lex Luthor: Just look at the headlines.

These massacre stories make the point IMPLICITLY that it’s an exceptional event.

One thing you DON’T hear is that massacres are occurring on a more or less daily basis in Iraq. And you never will.

Daily massacres! I like the sound of that.

But Doomers mustn’t be overconfident. Run scared.

The Last Jew: Dot’s all right, Meester. Ve’re all scared.

Lex Luthor [laughs]: No offense Rabbi, but that’s how I like to see ya.
