The revolution will be televised

Something can be sicker than Colonel Gadaffi’s bloody insanity.

Catholic priests with sex-addiction! Catholic priests with no shame, no morals, no respect, no brains, no intellect, no wisdom, no standards, no values, no nothing…. besides that arrogant smile and arrogant thought (and the erection in (and out of) their pants) that they will get away with it.

The Vatican has admitted it is aware that a number of priests (more than 20!) have raped nuns. But it gets more sickening than the rape as such. It’s an evil deed with a very evil touch. Most of the rapes happened (and probably still happen) in Africa as priests ‘went for’ the nuns to avoid possible infection with the HIV virus if they would ‘answer’ their sexual needs with hookers. A priest with a stiff one is a danger to society!

Nuns on the run from their sex obsessed male faith-colleagues. It’s sickening beyond sickening. The secret Vatican report also outlines that priests have used their financial, structural and spiritual authority to seek sexual favours from nuns. With other words, the sexual motto of those priests are “I’m your boss and your master, so just shut up and get with the program. Amen”.Especially in Africa, where local nuns are unfortunately still conditioned by a belief of inferiority towards males. Sick society. Sick men of the cloth.

In some cases the nuns got pregnant and the priests forced them to have abortions. And then probably these same bastards preach against abortion in their sermons to their church-goers. The stench of vomit is now just untenable.
It’s sick. Disgusting. Mad. Abuse of the dirtiest kind. Life sentences and chemical castration is the only solution!!!

And the Vatican…..? Well the report is just filled in the dirty secrets box in the dark basement at the end of the corridor. The usual tactic.

Human behaviour has no limits when it comes to sick minds.

Ah. Sick behaviour. Colonel Gadaffi in Libya is showing the world how mad you can get. And the Oscar for madness goes to…..

Winds of change across the Arab world. Very interesting to see how one pissed of, disillusioned market boy in Tunisia put the match to the powder keg across the region. It just shows how the anger and discontent was and is just below the surface. A millimetre below.

But never ever forget that dictators and abusive rulers are not a one man show. To stay in power for so long outside a democratic process you need solid support from a clique of fellow gangsters. Mostly a combination of extended family, business deals and army. These dictators are never isolated. They rule because they keep their protectors happy with money, property, assets,… And thus it is not because the dictator and his family leave the country that it’s all shine and glory. The power pyramid needs to be fully taken down.

But – for now -Gadaffi still sits there in his Tripoli palace ignoring reality and claiming it’s all the fault of Al Quada and drugged Nescafe (yes, he said that!). It’s the fate of dictators to lose touch with reality because they are surrounded by yes-men whom eat of the same cake. It was like that with Hitler, with Stalin, with Mussolini, with Pinochet,…..

The reality of global power politics is that Gadaffi was sucked back into so called respectability by the West (and others) because they needed his oil and his influence in the region. A region that isn’t the most stable on the planet.

And now that the bad boy is killing his own people, he is back in the evil corner. He has gone a step too far and has become replaceable. Well, the powers that be have no choice as the uprising (just as in Tunis and Egypt) was a wide popular moment of bold rage. This wasn’t Islamists nor opposition politics. These were the people of the streets truly being fed up and finding courage in that market boy from Tunis. And so, as in Egypt, the outside world jumped the bandwagon and spoke out against the dictators. If they would not have done so, they would have lost all trust with the peoples. Already in Cairo the demonstrators found that the bullets and the smoke grenades the Mubarak regime was throwing at them were ‘Made in USA’. And thus Washington had to call for Mubarak’s departure not to totally lose touch with the popular rage. Otherwise, who knows how the new power brokers might take over Egypt and what relationship they would built (or destroy) with the US.

With Libya it was too obvious to see that the world (from Washington to Moscow to even South Africa) was waiting and waiting and waiting to see where Gadaffi’s tricks were leading to. But again the people from Libya forced their hands. The world had to call for the Colonel’s departure or lose trust with whoever comes next. And oil is always in the back of the mind!

But Gadaffi and his mad sons are still there. Soldiering on and promising an ultimate sea of blood. And it looks like the Gadaffis are not about to leave Libya. A bloodbath of enormous proportions looks on the cards. Desert plains turning red. Soaked in the people’s sacrifice and heroism. And South Africa has its tail between its legs because at the end of 2010 it sold sniper rifles and truckloads of ammo to the Gadaffi regime. Rifles that are very likely being used today against the popular uprising.

The mad man from Tripoli is not finished yet!

Human behaviour can be a very bloody affair. The revolution will be televised.

Down south in South Africa the defence minister has some explaining to do. 82000 Weapons have disappeared from the army and navy. Yes, 82 thousand! That’s a whole killing field. Handguns, grenades, rifles, RPGs, mines,… 82000 Deadly tools unaccounted for! Kick that. Lost and also sold onto the black market by soldiers. Crazy.

Throw out. Californian punks Anti-Flag have been around for more than 2 decades. And in true punk-style they have screamed and shouted their message across the globe. Anti-imperialism and anti-fascism. It’s the sound of the winds of change in the Arab world. Listen to “The old guard” from their 2009 album “The people or the gun”. Or “You can kill the protester but you can’t kill the protest” from “The terror state” from 2003. Or “Angry, young and poor” from their “Underground network” release many years ago.
