NAFTA, Trade and American In-sourcing. On Iran and Middle East Election Fraud
"Mexican drug cartels have moved their production operations to the United States...where they use large tracts on National Parks land to grow marijuana..." CNN News.
Who said that quasi-free trade and globalization only leads to outsourcing of American jobs? There is such a thing as in-sourcing, with all these plants being relocated in US National Parks.
Could this also be behind recent smoking activities in the Northwest?
Iran, turmoil, unlikely war:
Things in Iran are at a possible tipping point. Either a severe crackdown, a compromise, or a new arrangement for governance. A new revolution is the least likely outcome: while many of the people, mainly in the cities, want real dramatic change, a real break, the politicians, even the ones calling for change now, do not want a change of regime. They seek modification. Still, a dramatic change is possible. Either way, whoever is on top, the nuclear program will not go away. It has become a national issue.
There has been a sudden revival of hope for a war on Iran among some in the Arab media, mostly fed by former Ba'athist generals and functionaries who now proliferate in Saudi and other Persian Gulf media. But there is very little likelihood for war, if only because it is highly unlikely to seriously have the intended impact. Of course, if Dick Cheney finds a way to sneak into the White house, then all bets are off.
This guy walks into a bar.... No, wrong setting..
Q: why don't they have demonstrations protesting against vote fraud and stealing elections in places like, say, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and a few other places?
A: because they never have election fraud or steal elections in these countries. They don't need to.
Everybody, should they have the chance, would vote for the right candidates anyway. In fact, they would all vote for the same candidates: so why have elections?
