Title: If you could assassinate one political figure of your choice, who would it be?
Post by: Caparino on May 27, 2012, 06:15 pm
The obvious answer would be: All of them. But if you had to pick one because of their behavior, proceedings, and stance on subjects; who would it be? Of course the display of having different politicians to vote for inevitably gives way for us to stay busy in our views of them; in turn allowing the real deciders of the world to carry on their game of chess. But for a moment, let's pretend it isn't at all like that and politicians with different views make the real difference in their efforts to "better the world".

At the current, I'd pick president hopeful Mitt Romney. He's likely to move forward with a presidency that sends the U.S. in the depths of Fascism under the veil of Capitalism. Not that we aren't there already, but I can foresee the future conditions of America to mirror that of China or Nazi Germany. That is solely my opinion based on philology I've studied in my day, but I'd like to see any opposing views on this. Having said that, I'd say President Obama is just like all the other recent presidents; he promises one thing and moves forward with another. Along the way he receives kickbacks and sides with certain corporations and is actually insinuating unfriendly dealings with the Middle-Eastern empire of modern day Persia: Iran. I'd have him shot in a second too, but I believe in the metaphor of picking the less lethal of two poisons, so I'd rather have him continue on with a second term.

I don't see Mitt winning this year.. He's a smart business guy and made tons of money tearing companies apart, but when it comes to politics he's a fucking moron.  Obama will likely destroy him when the debates begin.

I wanted to make this same thread. 

So many good choices!  Orinn Hatch, Barack Obama, Silvio Berlusconi...  I'll help the Russians out though and go for Vladimir Putin.

Won't be too long until the price of drone technology will become affordable for your average disgruntled citizen.  AeroVision, a military contractor that supplies like 85% of US drones, sell a kamikaze drone about the size of a donut for a few hundred thousand.  Maybe someone will sell drones over at the Armory someday.

I wrote the name of the contractor wrong, it's AeroVironment.  There was an good article in May edition of the New Yorker magazine that discusses other types of drones this company makes and how the FAA restricts drone flight for military/defense purposes, but that soon local police forces will be authorized to fly drones too.

The New Yorker article is behind a paywall here:

Even then, they'd give a squirrel more media coverage. The media corporations would never back Ron Paul; they'd sooner shut themselves down.

this is very true.  they like playing their roll in control, providing the brainwashing.  who cares if russia is threatening to shoot the u.s.'s missle silos located in the e.u., and japan has had to shut down their nuclear power plants, and have plenty of uranium to sell to iran if israel attacks.  as long as there's fat people losing weight, bad singers having contests, and sports on the boob tube.  ron paul wants to go back to the constitution, can't be having that.

I'd go back in time and shoot Harry J. Anslinger in the head, then maybe marjiuana would be legal.

Just to make sure, on my way back to the present, I'd stop and assassinate Reagen.

I suppose I'd choose one of the "behind the scenes" folks like Ben Bernanke or Christine Lagarde, head of the IMF.

There will be no difference between Obama or Romney as a US President.  There's no way to choose a "lesser of evils" with the two of them.

I think he's going to launch a war against Israel, and when that happens the US will jump in of course and that'll start WO3. So in my eyes he is a major threat for the world as we know it.

Sounds like you've been sipping the Bibi and neocon koolaid for so long that you've lost touch with reality. Even if he did have the power (which he doesn't, because the Ayatollah rules Iran, not its president) what makes you think he would when his country doesn't even have one nuke? Meanwhile, Israel with their not so secret stockpile of a couple hundred nuclear warheads, and the most capable and feared military power in the Middle East, would just love it if they were attacked by Iran since it would give them the excuse to pulverize the country into oblivion. Plus, everyone knows they pwn the most feared country in the world that would just go running like a loyal pit bull to their side in any war, so why would any sane actor choose to take on both Israel AND the US? You must think Ahmadinejad is suicidal to think he'd do such a thing, but he's never given any indication that he's irrational or unstable. The "wiping Israel off the map" bit played well with his audience and in much of the Middle East where Israel is despised, they were not the words of a mad man.

Nonetheless, your fear of Ahmadinejad is totally unfounded given the developments in Iranian politics over the last few years. Ahmadinejad owed his power and position to the support of the real man in charge, the Ayatollah with whom with he had a very ugly major falling out. He's since been utterly marginalized and repeatedly humiliated by the super mullah who's made a very public fool of him probably also to remind the candidates of the upcoming election to never forget their singular responsibility should be kissing his ass. Ahmadinejad is the lamest of lame ducks who, after the coming election to replace him, will probably be a dead duck.

I think it's the reverse happening. Israel and the U.S. won't get off of Iran's dick for researching nuclear weapons. They're basically saying: "We want to be the only countries with nukes. If you don't stop enriching uranium, we're going to start a war." I think it's highly unreasonable in both it's reasoning and it's hypocrisy. Would a single country, especially such a small one, dare launch any sort of nukes on any member of the U.S. alliance? I'm not even mentioning how a World War is needed in this resource lacking, over-populated world of today. And whether you guys realize it or not, development of Nuclear Energy is a means of advancing as a civilization. Before the high levels of enrichment required to build Nuclear Weapons, the lower levels of enrichment allow creation of renewable energy.

If you're trying to grow pot plants in your backyard, and two douchebags in the neighborhood approach you and tell you to stop because they grew it first. Would you just stop? Fuck that shit, I'd tell them to go eat a bucket full of dicks.

This is absolutely ridiculous reasoning.  Go take a look at a list of world military ranks by power.  Iran is supposedly such a huge threat, but it is not even close, not even in the same league as US military.  Go look at history.  Do you know WHY Iran hates the US and Israel?  I'll give you a hint:  it ain't because we have McDonald's and our women don't cover their heads with a hijab.

Post by: Freeman on May 28, 2012, 09:22 pm
Yeah, that's the part you're missing.  Iran is NOT the aggressor in the Middle East.  The US and Israel are.  Iran would be INSANE to start a war with Israel.  Like I said, look up a ranking of world military power.  Israel would wipe the floor with Iran even without US involvement.  Ahmedinejad may be many things, but #1 he isn't even in charge of the military and #2 he isn't insane.  Ahmedinejad is a near powerless figurehead that is only in power so long as he does what he is told.  The Mullahs and the Ayatollah hold all of the power in Iran.

Look at a map of the Middle East.  Look at where Iraq is.  Look at where Afghanistan is.  What's in the Middle?  If China invaded Canada AND Mexico don't you think the US might start a little saber-rattling.

Seriously, stop getting your information about foreign policy from the mainstream US media and pick up a book.  If you like cartoons, I recommend Persepolis as a good place to start for some insight into the history of Iran and US involvement in the Middle East.

What actions? Like everyone's been telling you, he has no real power so his actions won't do jack shit.

If you were saying that about the messianic prime minister of Israel who for the last year has been trying to figure out the best way to get the US to fight his war of choice against Iran for him, then we'd all be nodding in agreement because you'd actually have a very good point.

But pointing to a marginalized, powerless has been who isn't even taken seriously anymore in Iran much less the rest of the world, demonstrates you really have no idea what you're talking about and never really did.
