Troof Creep

Well, I am back from the Secret European Bilderberg conference. We finally decided who the next president is going to be. I can't tell you of course, but let me just say, Michelle Shouldn't be picking out any new drapes yet...

I was able to follow the blog on my PDA, but I am still trying to catch up to the nutters in general. One thing I was a bit surprised to see was how much attention was being given in the troof movement to the Russian invasion of Georgia, with over a dozen posts on 911 Blogger, and even more on Alex Jones' Prisonplanet.

I have always found it ironic that while the conspiracy theorists constantly claim that they are the victim of some neo-fascist police state trying to eliminate any opposition, they often support countries that actually are like this (paging Hugo Chavez).

In the numerous troofer articles I have seen on this, I have not seen single one, which did not take the side of Russia in this conflict, most of which uncritically accept the word of the Russian side, as portrayed in their press. Ironically, the troofers, who claim that the mainstream media can not be trusted, and that even such benign sources as Popular Mechanics are in fact fronts for the neo-facist state, uncritically accept such Russian media sources as the increasingly inaccurately named Pravda, which has accomplished the amazing feat of actually having a decrease in respectability since the days when it was merely the propaganda mouthpiece of the Soviet Communist Party. In the Reporters Without Frontiers survey of freedom of the press, Russia ranked a less-than-stellar 144 out of 169 countries. Just ask Anna Politkovskaya what happens to Russian reporters who criticize the government.

Also amazing is the complete lack of Russian conspiracy theories. Russia managed to invade Georgia with an army of over 60,000 soldiers, less than 2 days after the onset of conflict. Where are the claims of a Russian "false-flag" operation, which we are told is the cause of every military conflict on the modern era? Where is Alex Jones, claiming that Russia had secretly stationed 40,000 troops in "Uzbeakistan" months before the war started?

The most bizarre troofer post I have seen on this actually is a conspiracy theory, not involving Russia, but the US and the Jews (who else) by none other than the self-styled Tony Stark of the truth movement himself, Karl Schwarz. I found out about this article in an e-mail forward from Kevin "I swear I am not a Holocaust denier" Barrett, ironically.

Uh...here's a hint to President of Georgia Mikheil Saakashvili ­ do not piss-off a Russian bear if you do not want to end up fighting it. Every other nation in that region of the world, including Armenia, Turkmenistan and Kazakhstan have figured out they can trust the New Russia a hell of a lot more than they can trust the US or the Zionist zhids of Israel. Also, none of those nations consider themselves as 'European' nations.

Yeah, this is definitely a Georgie W. Bush plan that failed the moment he dreamed it up. Yet another very nasty, dirty diaper. More dead people, no secure pipeline. In fact, the only pipeline through Georgia and the only oil port and now piles of trash.

As a bit of an aside, Schwarz leaves no question of where he stands in the schema of anti-Semitism with this subsequent article on the subject.

As I explained in a recent article, the Russian word 'zhid' is many times worse than using the 'N' word for a Black in America.

Its literal meaning is along the lines of 'piece of shit Zionist Jew' - and NO the Russians do NOT apply the term to ALL Jews, and neither do I. Russians firmly differentiate between pious Jews of good heart and intent, and murderous lying deceitful Zionist thugs - who were, as we now know, directly responsible for a key role in the WWII suffering of their own alleged brethren. See the writings of the brave WWII Rabbi Michael Dov Weissmandl here:

They started using that word after about 30 million Russians had been slaughtered by Russian Zionist zhid communists and then lost another 20 million in World War II. Imagine that ­ 50 million dead at the hands of Zionist zhids...and yet they rant and whine like psychotic little bitches about 6 million they cannot document and about which they refuse all efforts to scientifically, academically investigate their claims about that number 'lost' in that alleged nightmare during WWII.

They're Getting the Band Back Together!

Kevin Barrett comes up with an interesting idea; why not use his radio show to bring back the 9-11 crackpots from the past. Recently he had on the former 9-11 Truth Candidate for President in 2004. Yesterday he got one of the true superstars of 2003, Karl (Nanotubes) Schwarz. Karl is in Europe, negotiating a location for his new carbon nanotube plant.

Not surprisingly, Karl cites the oil and gas pipeline across Afghanistan as the reason the US had to go to war with the Taliban. But Karl is a little savvier than your average Troofer; knowing that it has not been built, he thinks the USA started the war to stop the pipeline.

Karl reveals that the Port Authority filed suit in New Jersey (those devious bastards!) instead of New York for one BILLION dollars for asbestos abatement. Karl claims he knew an architect who had drawn up plans to build steel scaffolding around the WTC to do the asbestos abatement job, but when the costs came back at $5.8 BILLION dollars, they shelved the plans. I think James has covered this bit in the past, but it's breathtakingly stupid. For starters, they don't remove the asbestos these days (Barrett claims they scrape it off), they tend to leave it alone unless it's crumbling, in which they encapsulate it in spray-on plastic. And the idea that anybody would erect 110 stories of scaffolding... that's just retarded.

It gets even crazier as Karl goes into his spiel about galvanic corrosion between the aluminum cladding and the steel columns, which he claims is somewhat like osteoporosis, "where the steel loses its flexibility properties." Even Barrett doesn't fall for that one, noting that corrosion might result in (at worst) bits of the aluminum cladding falling off in high winds. Karl reminds Kevin that he's "talking as an architect" and claims to have designed high-rise buildings "before I got tired of that".

A caller from Canada gets on and wants to know what evidence there is that Arab hijackers got on the planes. Karl goes with the old "eight of the hijackers are alive" bit.

Kevin asks Karl about who "they" are. At first Karl is a bit coy, mentioning multinational companies like Chevron, Halliburton, Lockheed and Boeing, but then he gets onto reminiscing on his (fantasy) days at the RNC.

(46:20)

See, I was with the RNC. I was in their offices many times a week from 1990 up to 1994. And I was there when they actually cut a deal with the DNC, Zionist Jew Communists to let them have their war party that the DNC would not let them have. The reason they did that was that they wanted the Jewish money and the Jewish votes to win elections, and I told them they were out of their damn minds and in fact Pat Buchanan walked out about three months after I did.

Karl helpfully explains a bit later that Zionist Jew Communists are currently referred to as neocons. They have a little disagreement over all three parts of that definition, with Kevin actually reasonably noting that Zionists are just people who favor the Jewish homeland. But this is Barrett after all; he follows that up by saying that he's anti-Zionist himself.

I did not listen to the second hour of the show.

When Giants Strode the Earth

I'm sure that James will agree with me that the current folks at the top of the 9-11 Denial Movement today are a pretty pathetic lot compared to those who came before. I mean, back in the old days, you had Ed Begley, Jr., as the celebrity and Karl Schwarz, that famed investment banker and nanotechnology guru was the expert on international affairs. Here Karl gives a speech on that famed oil pipeline across Afghanistan. A still from this speech was included in at least one of the Loose Change movies.

How many of the major figures in the movement in 2004 are still around? Mike Ruppert's lost his health; Karl Schwarz is too busy supervising his 250 PhD's; John Grey is back on Venus and Mars; Cynthia McKinney was voted into retirement by her constituency.

Update: Commenter Manny notes that Karl himself wrote on this blog! Now James and I know we've really hit the big time!

We are breaking ground soon on the world's largest carbon nanotube facility and already have on the drawing boards at one of the world's largest engineering firms a plant that is over 10 times per month bigger than the annual capacity of this first plant.

If I wanted you to know anything about me, which is quite none of your damned business, I would provide you a road map, but like most of your ilk you cannot read a map so why waste my time?

Turns out Karl is also involved in the medical field:

We (Patmos Nanotechnologies, LLC) are in discussions with multiple parties to quickly address the medical treatment needs of the veterans that have been exposed to DU and derivative nano-particulates. That will require a lab unlike any medical lab in the United States due to what it is testing for and developing treatment regimens.

Truly a renaissance company for a renaissance man!
