Mixed Intellegence: Where the Heck is Supsa?







Pictures of Poti and Supsa taken in 1999

US Department of Energy (EIA): "Baku-Supsa Pipeline (AIOC "Early Oil" Western Route) Baku to Supsa (Georgia), terminating at Supsa Black Sea Port "

Wikipedia:The Baku-Supsa Pipeline (also known as the Western Route Export Pipeline and Western Early Oil Pipeline) is an 830 kilometres (520 mi) long oil pipeline, which runs from the Sangachal Terminal near Baku to the Supsa terminal in Georgia. It transports oil from the Azeri-Chirag-Guneshli field. The pipeline is operated by BP.

The Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan (BTC) pipeline goes through Georgian territory and not Russian aligned that's why BP, Chevron, Total, Hess and others built it, but, According to the map above, provided by US Department of Energy, there's a thick red line indicating a pipeline! The Baku-Supsa Pipeline terminates at the port of Batumi in the Russian affiliated autonomous region of Ajaria!
Supsa looks like a one horse town in Georgia, it doesn't look very much like a port, I think I'm going Poti, Poti is also in Georgia, I guess that's why Poti was bombed but Russia said it was no threat to oil shipments, Will that mean business as usual in the Russian-friendly boomtown Batumi?

Reuters: Georgia's oil port of Supsa is operating only partially and oil tankers are not going into its Batumi port?

I guess not...

This much I do know; US energy interests with all the usual suspects are somewhere in the mix including Zbigniew Brzezinski and Blackwater.
Jeremy Scahill's book Blackwater: The Rise of the World's Most Powerful Mercenary Army is now available in a special updated edition!

US Popularity Contest 2008 Backroom Boys: Zbigniew Brzezinski


It’s nice to know that the old guard like Zbigniev Brzezinski is imparting his wisdom to young Turks like Barack Obama under the universal banner of "change".

[LISTEN TO PODCAST HERE]

Allan Nairn: As US Votes on Who Will Hold the Trigger, Mayans Propagate Civilization
“The US Democrats’ dove is Barack Obama, whose chief foreign adviser, Zbigniew Brzezinski, greenlighted Israel to deliver the actual killing rifles (Galils) to Guatemala, since his President — Carter — was a little embarrassed.”

Noam Chomsky: It’s Imperialism Stupid
You can surmise that if everything runs without a hitch, and it is in the US interest, then Brzezinski is all for it!

Barry Grey: A political bombshell from Zbigniew Brzezinski
Brzezinski reading out damning allegations to the US senate from a New York Times article dated the 27 March, 2006 that in a memo, prepared by a British official who was present in a meeting between President Bush and his subordinate Tony Blair it was stated “that the president and the prime minister acknowledged that no unconventional weapons had been found inside Iraq. Faced with the possibility of not finding any before the planned invasion, Mr. Bush [allegedly] talked about several ways to provoke a confrontation.”

Bicyclemark pictured enjoying the hospitality of the “Coke house” Berlin Football World Cup 2006 (board lodging and free tickets to games!)

Background:

Max Keiser and Stacy Herbert of Karmabanque have websites, blogs , podcasts and are Al Jazeera filmmakers, their premise is that “price proceeds news.”
They have long held the belief that the best way to stop unaccountable bankers and corporations from destroying the planet is for activists to agree on a targeted boycott; that boycott is Coca-Cola…


Choice cutz taken from: Yeastradio podshow (quote taken from 30:31 into the show):

Madge: (Referring to sub-prime, the death of the Dollar, global warming and other subjects covered by karmabanque) “Max was right on about this stuff, not that the rest of us weren’t…”

Bicyclemark: “I just wanna [sic] add one more thing to that? (High Rising Intonation) I love Max very much or at least like him a lot… they’ve done a lot for me, but, but, a lot of people including Max and Stacy on karmabanque, karmabanqueradio.com, they really enjoy being right… I think we’re missing something, even 9/11 conspiracy people with all their websites and their videos have the same problem they lay out a little, y’know, argument, which may or may not be right, in Max’s case a lot of it is turning out to be right…(And here’s the stinger)
But you’re not offering anything to stop it, your not offering much of anything, all you’re doing is being right and celebrating being right."

("Et tu Brute"?)

Madge: “and making lots of money being right.”

Exclusive:
Stacy Herbert of karmabanque has told Biffin Bridge that Coca-Cola is still the boycott of choice.

…and here’s something that was prepared 2 years earlier.

Bicyclemark says the boycott of Coca-Cola is "old fashioned"

Biffin Editorial:

Madge Weinstein is a pioneer of podcasting who has promoted karmabanque and featured karmabanque in her show in the past.
She has also promoted Democracy Now to her audience as well as the global boycott of Coca-Cola.

Bicyclemark is also a veteran of podcasting with many interesting shows to his credit; which makes the nuanced comments about karmabanque hard to understand.

For bicyclemark to suggest that Max and Stacy have “done nothing”, is mistaken, they have both asked him to promote the boycott of Coca-Cola, a boycott that they have been working on since at least 2004.
The Karmabanque aim is to monetise dissent by using a targeted boycott, the Internet being the tool for this kind of viral marketing.
All you’ve got to do is use the banner.

*Biffin Bridge has not asked permission to host the karmabanque Sunday Roast with bicyclemark audio and assumes that it is covered by the creative commons licence.

Boycott Coke and have a nice day.

US Popularity Contest 2008: Thompson Flounders!



The betting public is let down by a blowhard that didn’t have the heart.

Sparky Collins, a trans gender Cuban reporter for Gambling911.com kept a dignified silence when Fred Thompson’s odds were slashed from 10-1 to 8-1 after he made remarks about Cuban immigrants being terrorists.
Sadly fascist Freddy was unable to sustain his vigour after this initial show of good form, as he has now surrendered from the race.

Steward’s inquiry:
Fred promotes the theory that Mars and Jupiter are also planets in the solar system that are warming up and he will not be hectored into admitting that global warming is a result of human activity*.

Fred Thompson is a visiting fellow of the American Enterprise Institute, a think tank funded by… Exxon Mobil.

*Experts on global climate change were censored by the Bush administration whose ties with the interests of oil and energy are well documented .

The coefficient of power in majority voting is ((2n)!/(22nn!2)

Auntie lies best


The BBC it’s “all good” until it’s too late! Back in 2002 Max Keiser of Karmabanque was talking about the impending Sub-Prime crisis the BBC makes it the word of the year for 2007 although they didn’t cover sub-prime until very late in 2007…

The BBC is a publicly funded corporation paid for by everyone in the UK who owns a television or equipment that can receive television programs this costs £135.50 ($270 aprox) per household per year.

The BBC’s charter is to “inform educate and entertain.”
To achieve this aim this is how the BBC fills our day in the UK:

Jeremy Paxman: an over-paid belligerent hack who conducts pointless interviews with the political class; a waste of time and money.

Matt Frei: Anchor for BBC America who looks like a Fox news reporter and fuck me running sounds like Fox news reporter too! Small Frei says: “There is no doubt that the desire to bring good, to bring American values to the rest of the world and especially now in the Middle East is now increasing tied up with American military power,” nice! (source John Pilger: Freedom next time).
Executive producer Rome Hartman states that "With Matt in the lead, we mean to bring the world home to America...to cover stories people won't find anywhere else on U.S.” I agree it won’t be a bit like Democracy Now, LinkTV or Al Jazeera.

Laurie Taylor: a Pot smoking Lothario and fucking bore who hosts the radio 4 show “Thinking Allowed”, his son, Matthew Taylor is the former head of policy studies for the Blair Labour project, Matthew talks bollocks on BBC current affairs programs with irritating regularity.

Melvyn Bragg: a smug Labour peer with a radio program called “In our time”, pleasantly diverting self-congratulatory intellectual onanism.

Vanessa Feltz: a media whore and talk show host who quotes extensively from The Daily “hate” Mail, a fascist paper in the UK. The Felch show is the worst of all on BBC radio London, a station that celebrates reactionary stereotypes as if it were a virtue 24/7.

Andrew Gilligan: an ex BBC Journalist who had to resign because he reported allegations that a dossier published by the British Government had deliberately suppressed intelligence reports about the military capabilities of Iraq.

Titbits from John Pilger’s “Freedom Next Time”:
“Impartiality is a principle that is suspended whenever the establishment is under threat.”
“2% of the BBC’s coverage of Iraq was given to anti-war dissent”

The Iraqi academic and activist Sami Ramadani’s view on the BBC

The bad News:
If you phone up TV licensing the chances are that you’ll be told that because the BBC streams programming over the Internet you are obligated to pay a licence fee.
If you cancel your TV licence you will be given notice that your “property is currently under investigation” in big red letters, ooh frightening!

The good news:
You can use the BBC iPlayer online and have a TV, TV card and digital receiver in your house, but, TV licensing will come ‘round to inspect your home and make sure that you are not using them for receiving or recording live TV broadcasts.

The bad News:
Will the rules change once there is the capability for live TV streaming through your Internet service provider?

…and finally:
The Sun, a tabloid newspaper with a long and bigoted history in the UK, owned by Rupert Murdoch, a cunt, has the scoop on the BBC planning to show adverts on selected television programmes.

The Reverend Fr. Dennis H. Holtschneider: upholding the DePaul tradition on free speech


Picture shows Thomas Klocek DePaul circa Fall 2004

Many people believe that The Reverend Fr. Dennis H. Holtschneider was unduly influenced in his decision to deny Norman Finkelstein’s tenure because of the damning dossier on Finkelstein sent to the Dean by Alan Dershowitz AKA “the Dersh”, “Fake”, “Plagiarist”, “the dude who keeps saying Ad Hominem”, “Morty the troll” co-author of the authoritative commentary of “From Time Immemorial” as told to a research fellow that’s not too hot at spelling or checking the sources.
The Reverend Father wrote that Norm, as with all staff, needed to: "strive to be objective in their professional judgment of colleagues."

straightchris was so moved by his conviction that he sent an email to Holtschneider of DePaul praising his believes:

DePaulPresidentsOffice[at]depaul.edu

Your Eminence,

Thank you for keeping up the tradition of suppressing academic freedom, your part in Norman Finkelstein’s tenure bid is outstanding!
We live in modern times and it is unfortunate that Norm didn’t suffer the same fate as Cayetano Ripoll…

Keep the up doctrine of faith!

Your servant,

straightchris

On a more serious note, the Israeli entry “Push The Button” failed to make the Eurovision Song Contest Finals in Helsinki this year because of vote manipulation by the former Eastern block countries, and, a desire by dark forces within Eurovision to gag any political dissent regardless of the musical merits! The Israeli entry by Teapacks has an ingenious use of the Spanish Phrygian scale that modulates on three or more themes, uses two European languages and an urban argot based on Phoenician Aramaic incorporated in a surprising syncopated middle section; a cogent case if any were needed to abandon phone voting and restore the panels of library music experts better able to scrutinize the performances. Judge for yourselves!

Eminent Trolls: The Wrath of Dershowitz



The Dersh has drawn up a comprehensive brief about Norm on why he should lose his job at DePaul University and has sent it to Dean! I bet Dershowitz was a right little snitch at school…
“His scholarship is no more than (wait for it) ad hominem attacks on his ideological enemies.” I’m no scholar but isn’t it ad hominem to dismiss a body of work as ad hominem without addressing the substantive issues mate?

Zac Goldsmith, Karmabanque and The Coca-Cola Hedge Fund.



Zac Goldsmith has joined the Tory Toffs who say they can manage events by trusting some very nasty people.

[LISTEN TO PODCAST HERE]

Edited transcript:

Zac Goldsmith, editor of the Ecologist magazine, had some kind of problem with Monsanto involving an article written by Brian Tokar back in 1998, the first run of 14,000 copies were destroyed and after that some high street newsagents refused to sell them.

Zac is a partner of a bookmaking firm called Fitzdares in London, his associates are James Osborne MP and Taki Theodoracopulos, Taki did three months in Prison for trying to smuggle 23 grams of Cocaine into the UK. (How could Fitzdares get a license when a convicted drug smuggler is "involved"?)

The Washington Post wrote on December 25, 2004: “The anti-Coke campaign has been called by its founders (Karmabanque) a "smart boycott." Goldsmith said he believes he can push Coca-Cola shares to as low as $22.”
Goldsmith later said: "The hedge fund is not mine in any sense I didn't set it up. I haven't provided financial support, and I do not manage it. Any suggestion to the contrary is false."

Zac Goldsmith now works with a John Gummer MP who is on the Coca-cola environmental advisory board

David Cameron said: “Who better than Coca Cola, a firm with a better distribution network in sub-Saharan Africa than any aid agency, to get materials out to needy populations?”

Steve Hilton is the Conservative Party consultant and godfather to David Cameron’s first child, his business consultancy “Good Business” has clients such as McDonald's and Coca-Cola.

Zac Goldsmith: "Coke represents the cutting-edge of a global monoculture that is undermining real human diversity,"

Cameron said Ronald Reagan had had the right idea when he made the joke "If it moves, tax it. If it still moves, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidise it." (There were a lot of backroom deals going on in those days, lax enforcement and greatly reduced fines).

High Society: Begum Nawazish Ali and his Violence Against Women

LISTEN TO PODCAST HERE



Edited transcript:
There’s a syndicated article that’s been doing the rounds recently by Salman Masood about a phenomenon that promises to be a global sensation!
The article is about a bisexual TV TV star that is world famous in Pakistan called Ali Saleem who, as a drag queen, has developed a character called Begum Nawazish Ali.

In some parts of the Muslim world gay men, mukhannathun, are generally accepted, because god created them, so, they have no blame or shame, unless they perform what is termed “illicit acts”.

Ali Saleem alias Begum Nawazish also provides a “port in a storm” for young single heterosexual males in Pakistan, in fact “The Begum” has openly boasted that he had received unprotected anal sex with no less than 20 servants one evening at a truck stop near “The Marina Club” in Karachi after which he then performed fellatio on each and every one of them.

On New Years Eve at the “The Black and White ball” in Lahore Begum Nawazish beat up his Blonde English socialite girlfriend in front of everybody in what must been a prolonged and violent assault as someone later commented that “ he is not the feminist he would have us all believe” as the same blonde woman was spotted at KHI with a bandaged hand and a severely bruised face.

If you have a view about violence against women you could express your opinion on the Gagan Grewal show which is a BBC Asia Network programme; Begum Nawazish contributes to the show every Tuesday at 19:00 hrs GMT, listeners can call in, email and post messages on the show’s website.

Addendum:
MSNBC singing from the same hymn-sheet as The New York Times and announcing the “scoop” of “The Begum’s” political ambitions, which is further proof, if any were needed, that she’s chronically on “the devil’s dandruff”.

Oh the privations of giving up Coca-Cola!
Convincing people about the logic of boycotting Coca-Cola can be frustrating as the impression many give, as well as ad hominem arguments, is that it is too much of a burden to be bothered with.
This is a quote from Max Keiser of Karmabanque
“We the people have the power to take coke's stock down to zero. And we the people are the shepherd of the global economy, not the corporations. We don't want corporations being our shepherd for obvious reasons; they're not in the humanity business. At the moment; the corporations seem to think that they can do anything they want with impunity this is a very unhealthy situation as I see it because the these corporations are extremely narrow in their focus and tend to destroy things like the environment without thinking twice about it...
Is coke OK, is coke not OK? This is not the question. The question is, are we going to stand and start pushing back and reasserting ourselves as the rightful architects of our destiny in this globalized world are we going to let narrowly focused, non-accountable, dubious product pushing monopolists undermine our freedoms? Coke is vulnerable, let's take it down and reassert our dominion in this world.”
