It seems that I might be wrong about the events in Britain. Seems like al-Qaida might have been involved anyway. They sure is getting sloppy.

On a side note: 9/11.
People say that it is an impossibility that it was an inside job/false flag-operation, because if you conducted an operation that large information would have to leak out.

1.Basic Black Ops.-knowledge is that everyone is on a 'need to know'-basis. I seriously doubt that all the 19 involved terrorists knew of each other. Hell, I doubt Mohammed Atta knew about the whole scope of the operation. What this means is basically that the available information that could leak out (and that did leak out) was probably kept to an extreme minimum.

2. People seem to imagine that just because this might have been orchestrated by the american administration, it wasn't a genuine attack. Just about everybody involved is/was probably convinced that the where/are a part of an Islamic movement, except 1 or 2 guys somewhere near the American top (I doubt they are a real part of the administration, but I'll bet my ass that they paid a couple of bucks to get the administration where it is)that know what's going on.

Now, I don't believe that 9/11 was an inside job. Why? Because I don't really believe conspiracy theories. It's to neat. My basic belief is that the world isn't run by some sort of organisation. It's 'run' by industrialists and capitalist all over the world just trying to make an extra million. The could take the power over the world if they wanted to, but their greed makes them shortsighted. It's all just one short sighted move after another, and the subsequent move is either to cover an ass or to make som more money. I doubt that anyone in USA helped with 9/11, but I think that what happens now is basically just a way for the american arms industry to justify it's existance. And to make money, of course.

Something else that has annoyed me today are leftist who treat information like propaganda. Moderaterna, the largest party in Sweden isn't fascists or nazis. Sure, the have a bit of a brown history, but that was 60 years ago. The people involved then are dead now. I hate Moderaterna. They are right wing, capitalist-hugging, working class-oppressing, neo-liberal scum fucks. But they ain't nazis. Or fascists. Just because something is right wing doesnt mean that it have anything in common with the extreme right. Just because you want it to be so doesn't make it so. Not that the extremists are that right wing anyway. In a discussion with a fascist (self procclaimed) he described the fascistic economical system as "national socialism", basically meaning a socialism that isn't internationalistic (kind of an impossibility in todays society since capitalism is extremely internationalistic). What makes them right wing extremists is the etnocenthricity, the sexism, the bullshit machismo ("war is to man what maternity is to women" etc.), the anti liberalism and the authoritarianism. I've overheard discussions discussions between communists and members of Blood & Honor, and the only part where they differed is in the attitude towards race, sexism and nationalism. The key difference is that nazism is socialism (and I'm talking about nazism today, mostly) that places the largest emphasis on race. Solidarity with the race instead of class.

Let me make something quite clear: I hate nationalism. Feeling proud to belong to a geograpically defined administrative surface that thinks that it has something in common because the powers that be figured nationalism was a good way to organize people. Fuck off. Same with racism. Stoopid fucking shit. I'll quote a personal hero here (Arne Anka) about the motivating factors behind racism: a feeling of "I can't do anything, I don't know anything, I don't want anything, but my race is the best in the world." White pride? Why should I be proud for being white? I had nothing to do with it. I am proud of my own achievements instead. Because I can.

Something else that is funny: the same person who thought that rightwing=nazi also thought that mandatory service in the army was the basis of oppression of women anf homofobia. Now, I'm sorry, but fags got killed and women oppressed way before 1901, when we got "allmän värnplikt." What I think that you have a beef with is the macho warrior culture that has been dominant since... forever. Men fight, not women. Women get penetrated, not men. That has been coupled with the beliefs that if a man wasn't involved it wasn't really sex and that there wasn't really two sexes. Just men, and unfinished men (=women). And if a man was treated in a way that only women was to be treated (got beaten, had sex done to them instead of from them.) well, then obiously he wasn't really a man. He was unfinished. Like a woman. And we can't have inperfect creatures running around, posing as perfect, now can we? Mandatory service is just a symptom of this, as most organized violence is. I mean, look at the Vatican State. They have a really tiny mercenary army from Switzerland armed with pikes. And they are still quite homophobic and sexist. I'll bet you they are even more homophobic and sexist there than we are here, and still... We have (more or less) mandatory service.

I just hate idiots. I think I hate them even more when they are potentially on my side. Because I expect more. I hate the hypocrisy. We are for free speech and political freedoms and equality and all those cuddly things but nazis shouldn't be allowed to speak their mind. Excuse me?

Fuck off. I hate idiots. And I don't suffer fools.

Summertime Blues

Yeah. My Baby left today. Not forever, but for a week. Can't sleep alone. Or to be more precise, I have a problem with going to sleep alone. Doesn't seem to be a reason to go to sleep when you are alone. Especially when you don't have anything to get up to in the mornings.

But I'll guess it will workitself out. It always does, somehow.

Met up with friends S & J today. Real nice. Spent a couple of hours wandering about town and eating and stuff. But I have the same problem I always have with people. I feel like I take up too much time and space. I always end up holding a lecture about something to people, and you don't reallt want to lecture your friends, even when it's about something silly like japanese nationalism and stuff like that. Plus, I think that S needs the space and attention right now. She doesn't seem to feel that good these days. And I think I understand why. But I don't know how to bring it up. And I don't want to bring it up when we are not alone. Still, it was a good day.

On another note: don't you feel that the al-Qaida panic in the UK is a bit... I mean, if it was al-Qaida planting these car bombs and stuff, they have become very clumsy. Think about it: when they do things they are brilliantly planned, quite complicated (like setting of charges at different times for maximum effect) tactical works of terrorist art. Someone setting a car on fire and rolling (or the other way around) it into an airport... Feels like the little league.

And how fitting isn't it that CIA just happened to find a Hizbollah-member amongst iraqi prisoners, who supposedly was in Irag on Irans mission, training Shia militias to kill american soldiers? Yeah, right. I mean, I have no doubt that Iran are supporting Shia militias in Irag (because Irans supports Shias everywhere), but I seriously doubt that they are actively encouraging these supportees to attack americans. Sure, they are religious fanatics, but the thing that people don't think about is the fact that they are pragmatic religious fanatics. And giving the US of A more of a reason to invade, or be otherwise aggressive... Naah. I mean, it's not like they are getting nukes because they want to blow up the world for Allah. They are doing it to get attention. Remember that the USA don acknowledge Iran as a legitimate state and regional power. Iran has previously promised to help transform both Hamas and Hizbollah to strictly poliical and social organisations in exchange for western recognition. But the US wouldn't give them that. Plus they started drawing up battle plans by throwing dart on a map of the middle east. And Iran has extrememly severe economical problems. So the nuclear program is basically a way for Iran to force the west to communicate with them directly (and it works), to tell the US to stay tha fuck away and to gather the people against a common enemy (Israel and the US. And it works) to take their minds of the fact that the live in an economical dung heap. I'm not saying that they aren't dangerous. I'm not saying that I support the regime. I'm just saying that they ain't insane.

Interesting little bit of fact: did you know that Iran had troops in Afghanistan fighting the taliban long before the US or any other western force?

Silly

Just read through a lot of the posts on this blog and found out that the majority is about me whining about me being lazy and drunk. I think I write a lot here when I'm hung over.

Silly me.

Scared As Mice

I don't suffer fools. I don't. But I don't have the energy to argue with them for to long either.

But those of you that are able to read swedish should read this little post about the Islamic Rage Boy, written by a swedish senior citizen with a fundamentalist (in the words proper meaning, meaning that he thinks that Islam is only it's texts. And only the extreme ones.) view on islam. Now, I am no friend of islam. It is like all the abrahamitic religions first and foremost a tool of oppression, and a way of controlling and using poor and enraged people. BUT, like christianity is not only the crusades, child molesting priests, the IRA, The Lord's Resistance Army, American foreign policy, anti-semitism, fag bashing, support of Hutu Militias, Islam is not only Hamas, Al Qaeda and the talibans (interestingly enough, these three organisations are sunni, and we are most often used to think about the shia as the extremists).

Anyway, I battled a bit in his commentary field. Here's what I wrote:

Visst, fundamentalism finns i varje land. Titta bara på de svenska präster som inte vill acceptera homosexuella giftermål, homosexuella präster eller för den delen kvinnopräster. Bakåtsträvare eller rättrogna?

Opinionsbildare och politiker har uppenbarligen även ansträngt sig för att använda den hotfulle muslimen som medel för sina egna mål. Men där är det väl inte fråga om folk som "genom att underlåta att skaffa kunskap om islam" använder stereotyper för att främja sig själva, utan om 'sanningssägare'?

Självklart finner du kärnan för islamism i haditherna och koranen! Du hittar grunden för Westboro Baptist Church (http://www.godhatessweden.com) i bibeln. Stämmer deras åsikter och handlingar med majoriteten kristnas åsikter och handlingar?

Nej, muslimska länder verkar ha svårt för det där med demokrati. Det verkar vara något som väldigt många länder (om inte de flesta) utanför västvärlden har svårt för. Är det kristendomens fel att sydamerikanska stater militärkuppar till höger och vänster? Eller är det kanske sociala oroligheter och snedfördelad makt som ligger bakom? Hmmm... Kan det vara så att muslimska länder har problem med demokrati eftersom de har styrts av en elit i hundratals år och efter den elitens fall (det ottomanska riket då) har de styrts av lydprinsar som gått europas ärenden? Den demokratiska vanan är säkerligen väldigt dålig då. Bara en teori. Kanske stämmer, jag vet inte.

Alla dagens terrorister är inte muslimer. Av ca 500 terrordåd i europa under 2006 var 1 utfört av muslimer. Ca 10 var utförda av nazister, dubbelt så många utförda av vänsterextremister och resten utförda av separatister. I resten av världen (utanför Israel/Palestina) begås de flesta självmordsbombningarna av marxister.

Runt 90% av Koranen återfinns i Bibeln, give or take. Väljer man att vara bokstavstrogen kristen hamnar man lätt på samma ställe som talibaner. Till skillnad från kristendomen så finns det stöd för krig, och det är noggrant (såpass noggrant som en fjortonhundra år gammal text författad av en analfabet samt några hundra skrönor om hans liv nu kan vara. Men nya testamentet är inte så mycket bättre.) reglerat, såtillvida att man får bara ta till vapen mot islams fiender. Det är därför dom vrålar om jihad hela tiden. Jihad består för övrigt av Stora Jihad (dvs en kamp inom en själv för att bli en bättre muslim) och Lilla Jihad (försvara islam med vapen). Ordvalet i sig visar ju på vad Mohammad själv tyckte att man skulle prioritera.

Problemet är ju att kristendomen, judendomens och islams heliga skrifter är anakronistiska. Hur ska du kunna applicera levnadsregler och ideologier från en 1400 år (eller 1800 år? Eller 5000 år?) gammal text på dagens samhälle? Självklart är Koranen och Haditherna bitvis krigiska, islam föddes trots allt i ett område som uttnyttjades som bricka i kampen mellan Byzans och Persien, med en befolkning som till största delen bestod av ickecentraliserade stammar.

Haditherna är berättelser om Mohammads liv och leverne. Mohammad betraktas som en perfekt människa och som det ultimata föredömet.

Det intressanta med haditherna och tolkningarna av dem och koranen är hur flexibla de är. Bland annat så hittar man både stöd för och emot månggifte i dem, beroende på hur man läser (det perfekta antalet fruar sägs vara fyra, men enbart Mohammad var ju perfekt och är därför den enda (tillsammans med hans homie Gud) som kan ha flera fruar). Iran har hittat (snarare anpassat sin läsning efter omständigheterna) hadither som talar FÖR att kvinnor ska kunna arbeta som advokater, trots att det hittills varit förbjudet. Läs till exempel ‘The Veil And The Male Elite’ av Fatima Mernissi för fler exempel.

Min slutpoäng är denna: Visst, islamism är ett hot mot västerländska, humanistiska idéer. Men hardcore kristendom är lika illa (om än sämre beväpnade). Läs gamla testamentet och man ser uppmuntran av både folkmord, rasism och etnisk rensning. Visst, Islam blir mer inflytelserikt i väst. Men precis som det är skillnad på Westboro Baptist Church och Svenska Kyrkan så är det skillnad på al Qaida och moskén på söder, och lika lite som jag tror att Svenska Kyrkan kommer uppmuntra till krig och förstörelse (trots den stora mängd av texter de kan stödja sig på), lika litet tror jag att Mehmet som städar här i huset kommer självmordsbomba mig. Och gör han det har det säkerligen mer med hans utsatta sociala läge att göra än hans religiösa tillhörighet.

Life Ain't Nuthin' But Bitches & Money

Yeah. Something like that.

Found out that I passed the last exam. So now I just have to find 3 more points before august. Haha. But I think I'll sort that out. I hope so, anyway.

But I got a strange call from my employer this morning. She was saying that the Big Boss had written an e-mail explaining that he wanted us to do an inventory over the candy, cokes and ice creams because he had gotten som 'bad vibes' when he was out there yesterday and I was taking a 5 minute break, sitting on a chair and eating an ice cream. I had already paid for the ice cream. OK, maybe I shouldn't be sitting down like that when I am the only one in the store, but hey... Am I supposed to work alone for 6 hours without any sort of break? And I had, previously to my break, done maybe a quarter of my work, so it wasn't like the shit wasn't going to get done.

But what I don't get is why he got 'bad vibes' that made him want us to do inventory? I mean, I could partially understand if he thought that I was lazy, but does he think that I was stealing beause I had an ice cream?

Fucking whack job.

I am so tired. I haven't done anything today. I have hardly gotten out of bed. I usually only feel like this in the winters.

Et tu, Brute?

Genesis 3:4:
And the serpent said unto the woman, ye shall not surely die:

Genesis 3:5:
For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.


There is a reason I got a couple of snakes tattooed.

I Väntan På Gud

I just realized something. I want to go for a quest. A quest for God. I want to find Him. I have spent time in the forest, and I almost thought He was near. I want to go to Israel, to Jerusalem. To see if He is really there. What His affinity for that place is. I want to go to Arabia, to see what is hidden in the desert wind. I want to go to the steppes of Central Asia to see what Attila and Genghis saw. I want to go to Transylvania to se what made people sacrifice each other in thse woods. To see what Vlad Dracula saw. I want to go to persia to see what Zarathustra saw, to the Middle East to what compelled Abraham, to Egypt so learn of Akenatens experiences, to Mexico to see the Aztecs dreams. I want to spend more time in my own peoples woods to understand what compelled them to hang people in the crown of a tree as a sacrifice. What made Odin sacrifice himself to himself. No, I know it was the runes, I mean what made him to it? The chief ot the Gods realizing that he too has to sacrifice to gain something.

Are these acts and these people and these creatures what we think of when we speak of God? I think not. But if God is almighty these people saw him. These acts of horror, genocide, blood and cruelty are Gods work.

Or as Elie Weisel (a man I rarely agree with) writes in his play The Trial Of God:

"...but let one killer kill for God's glory, and God is guilty. Every person who suffers or causes suffering, every woman who is raped, every child who is tormented implicates Him."

Or as Algernon Swinburne wrote in Atalanta In Calydon:

"Who turns the large limbs to a little flame
And binds the great sea with a little sand;
Who makes desire, and slays desire with shame;
Who shakes the heaven as ashes in his hand;
Who, seeing the light and shadow for the same,
Bids day waste night as fire devours a brand,
Smites without sword, and scourges without rod;
The supreme evil, God.

Yea, with thine hate, O God, thou hast covered us,
One saith, and hidden our eyes away from sight."

If God is almighty I cannot see how he can be "all good" (if one does not think that an act of God is per definition good. I don't. How can you justify genocide, rape and murder when you are almighty? There is an easy way to solve it then, isn't it?). He seems a bit likean "angry, petulant old man", in Tennesee Williams words.

But I still want to find Him, even if he is not all good. If He exist. I really doubt that. At the moment I don't believe in him at all. As a matter of fact I outright deny him and most spirituality as a matter of principle.

But I still want to find Him. Go figure.

Christianity has really fucked us up. Our sense of morals and values have really fucked us up.
