A spineless hypocrite...

I used to criticize the former head of state of the US. In a way, he was honest by not denying that he was a crook. But....this old puppet-in-charge, at the moment, is much worse. He could stop the ongoing genocide / mass murdering, ethnic cleansing, mass destruction and dispossession of millions. But no ! Freedom, human rights and blablabla, are not applicable to Palestinians. The important matter is how much money his zionist friends will "donate" to his presidential campaign. And to secure those donations, he is proving to the world that he is no more than a spineless old coward with disdain for basic human rights. 

Congratulations....US !

Your veto (vote) for the ongoing genocide (war crimes) in Palestine is based on a total absence of moral and disrespect for basic human rights....and indeed a great demonstration of hypocrisy and madness.

How can the US ever criticize others for....whatever ?

Mathematics of the 21th-century....2 is more than 187 !

The UN General Assembly voted in November by a large margin against the United States' economic and trade embargo against Cuba, first imposed in 1960. A total of 187 states voted for the resolution put forward each year against the embargo, with only the US and Israel voting against and Ukraine abstaining.

Electric waste....

Tesla refuses to follow the contract rules of the Swedish labour market between trade unions and corporations. This is Europe. If you don´t like the rules....you can always cross the Atlantic back to corporate paradise.

Incarcerated for years by the High Court lackeys....

His "crime" was to practice journalism and the uncovering of war crimes. And where is the support from all his colleagues around the world ?

How can anyone....

..vote for crooks, liars, cowards and people who are completely spineless ??

The final 5 K....

 Eugene, Hayward Field, May 29, 1975

Frank Shorter and Steve Prefontaine making an attempt to break the American record in the distance. Both runners had a huge influence on the emerging running boom of the 1970`s (and that never faded away !). They were at the time at the forefront of fighting to change the amateur rules that prevented top-class athletes from making a decent living out of their sports. Prefontaine embodied the true joy of running and, on the track, he was a completely fearless athlete. A few hours later, his life came to an end in a car accident. This was his last sunset.... 

Meanwhile....

Was Florence Griffith-Joyner’s 100-meter world record wind assisted...?

The Omega wind gauge (stationary tube) registered 0.0 wind during the race

On July 16, 1988, Florence Griffith-Joyner ran 10.49 in the 100-meters at the United States Olympic Trials in Indianapolis. Looking at the little flag being held by the official standing behind the start line, it would appear as if there was a strong crosswind coming from the left of the runners (the flag is actually even moving slightly backwards). There is definitely no tailwind, and how could such a crosswind favor the runners ? She outdistances the other competitors as well, and she seems to be the only one in the race to "benefit" from those winds...? 

Anyway....technically, Flo-Jo is still the best sprinter of all time, and that includes both male and female athletes. Her running during that year of 1988 is no less than close to perfection.

Lessons from 1918....

San Francisco, city of (no) shame....

..a common sight in the streets of SF

US most expensive city (one out of 11 000 inhabitants in SF is a billionaire). Common working people can not afford to live there anymore due to property prices, rental cost (3000 dollars/monthly for one bedroom apartment), private tourist accommodation...and so on. One of the results of such a "wealthy" city is 10 000 homeless people living in the streets due to drug-related problems, mental health problems, unemployment (or miserable salaries), and poverty. Massive cutbacks to mental health and public housing development as a result of neoliberal carcinoma, pushed the situation to a breaking point out of control. Because what you see in the streets of San Francisco, a few blocks away from the most expensive hotels, is no longer what we in Europe call poverty. What goes on in SF is a profound dehumanization of the most vulnerable.

Meanwhile....

..on the other side of the North Atlantic a kangaroo court is about to take place....more like "democracy" as entertainment for stupids.
