"Oh Shit! ... GMO Food Sterilizes People ... And It's Really A Form of Population Control?"
"There was of course no way of knowing whether you were being watched at any given moment. How often, or on what system, the Thought Police plugged in on any individual wire was guesswork. It was even conceivable that they watched everybody all the time. But at any rate they could plug in your wire whenever they wanted to. You had to live—did live, from habit that became instinct—in the assumption that every sound you made was overheard, and, except in darkness, every movement scrutinized."
Alexander King, Bertrand Schneider - founder Club of Rome - The First Global Revolution, pp.104-105
"In searching for a new enemy to unite us, we came up with the idea that pollution, the threat of global warming, water shortages, famine and the like would fit the bill ... All these dangers are caused by human intervention and it is only through changed attitudes and behaviour that they can be overcome. The real enemy, then, is humanity itself."

IS THIS LITTLE GUY A PERSON?
The founders of the American state understood that the proper functioning of a democracy required an educated electorate. It is this understanding that justifies a system of public education and that led slaveholders to resist the spread of literacy among their chattels. But the meaning of "educated" has changed beyond recognition in two hundred years. Reading, writing, and arithmetic are no longer sufficient to decide on public policy. Now we need quantum mechanics and molecular biology. The knowledge required for political rationality, once available to the masses, is now in the possession of a specially educated elite, a situation that creates a series of tensions and contradictions in the operation of representative democracy.

"We should hire three or four colored ministers, preferably with social-service backgrounds, and with engaging personalities. The most successful educational approach to the Negro is through a religious appeal. We don’t want the word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population. and the minister is the man who can straighten out that idea if it ever occurs to any of their more rebellious members."

"A total population of 250-300 million people, a 95% decline from present levels, would be ideal."
Lord Bertrand Russell, The Impact of Science On Society (Routledge Press: New York, 1951).
"At present the population of the world is increasing at about 58,000 per diem. War, so far, has had no very great effect on this increase, which continued throughout each of the world wars.. War has hitherto been disappointing in this respect, but perhaps bacteriological war may prove effective. If a Black Death could spread throughout the world once in every generation, survivors could procreate freely without making the world too full. The state of affairs might be unpleasant, but what of it?"
Denmark Vesey For President 08

No Corporate Conglomerate Will Be Allowed To Control More Than 5% Of News Market 5. Federal Reserve Abolished 6. For-Profit Prison Industry Abolished
*George Orwell (1903-1950) English novelist, critic
Men can only be happy when they do not assume that the object of life is happiness... If liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear... The great enemy of clear language is insincerity... The quickest way of ending a war is to lose it... To see what is in front of one's nose requires a constant struggle... For a creative writer possession of the truth is less important than emotional sincerity.

So surprising to find so many Africans behind USA. Like my own African mama said "I'm for the country that's feeding all my children" LOL. USA USA
I can get with that.... but nah... deep down I just can't see myself rooting against my brothers.
and oh yeah adding on to my comment above... do we expect American blacks to have some sort of loyalty? to who? why?
I'm born and raised in the midwest. Ever since I can recall the World Cup I've pulled for every African team out there. Nigeria was pissin' me off this year. Too many blown goals. S. Africa came to play. Ivory Coast showed some flashes minus Drogba. Wasn't able to catch Cameroon. Don't know alot about the Ghana squad.
I know Onyewu's sister so I want to see him play well for USA but I'll be tooting my vuvuzela for Ghana.

I'm pulling for Ghana against the U.S., but I'm pulling for Brazil to take it all! Oh and yes, I'm original indigenous to the western hemispheric soil...LOL
This is a good article on the topic

" People very often say that slavery has “taken” things from blacks, which is correct in many ways but inaccurate in many others. Rather, in some cases what slavery has done is muddled small joys other American citizens take for granted. It’s not that blacks don’t often have the same things as whites, it’s that, occasionally, those things are rendered less effective by the lack of a certain history within the black community. Just as slavery is why we have Black History Month rather than something more specific, like Irish-American Heritage Month, slavery is why I don’t get the same pleasure from the World Cup as my friends."
Ghana.
GH all the way!!!
They've got some serious swag too. Gyaan and Asamoah play good, but they need to perfect their scoring and stop missing the goal so much. The Australia and Germany games were played well, but they failed to execute so many times.
USA USA USA (!) has come up through the years and they have some good players. Dunno what kinda loyalty is to be expected because on the US team there are Africans and one Caribbean, alongside some Mexicans. If the number of African and Caribbean players goes up to as many as the French team, then to whom is one meant to be 'loyal' - the country or the team?
iHeart Les Bleus and think Nicolas Anelka's the baaaddest for what he did. I wish they could have pulled thru and won, but Viva la Resistance, mes frères!
Co-sign Ensayn1, Brazil's gotta take this. A Brazil v Argentina final wld be fierce!
I never root for the USA in any int'l competition except for track & field. I've really enjoyed this World Cup and I pay particular attention to any game featuring ANY African country. I will be pulling for Ghana in this game, but I'll be cool if the USA wins. I've become more patriotic and "rooted" in America since Obama was elected, but I still tend to root for the underdog, especially if he's black.
"I still tend to root for the underdog, especially if he's black.!
Ghana is definitely not the underdog in this football match! Whatever gave you that idea... do you know the history of football in Ghana?
