Funny Stuff from Oplympics' Commentators

My earlier report on Olympics London 2012

Did they really say that???????

Here are the top nine comments made by NBC sports commentators so far during the Olympics that they would like to take back:

.....
1. Weight-lifting commentator: 'This is Gregorieva from Bulgaria. I saw her snatch this morning during her warm up and it was amazing.'
......
2. Dressage commentator: 'This is really a lovely horse and I speak from personal experience since I once mounted her mother.'

.....
3. Paul Hamm, Gymnast: 'I owe a lot to my parents, especially my mother and father.'
.....
4. Boxing Analyst: 'Sure there have been injuries, and even some deaths in boxing, but none of them really that serious.'
......
5. Softball announcer: 'If history repeats itself, I should think we can expect the same thing again.'
......
6. Basketball analyst: 'He dribbles a lot and the opposition doesn't like it. In fact you can see it all over their faces.'
......
7. At the rowing medal ceremony: 'Ah, isn't that nice, the wife of the IOC president is hugging the cox of the British crew.'
.....
8. Soccer commentator: 'Julian Dicks is everywhere. It's like they've got eleven Dicks on the field.'
.....
9. Tennis commentator: 'One of the reasons Andy is playing so well is that, before the final round, his wife takes out his balls and kisses them... Oh my God, what have I just said?'

Sept 11th Is 'ere Again; Shall We Kill Its Ugly 'ead for Good?

So here we are on the day of the worst incident on US soil. Who are the perpetrators and why is a very strong debate amongst many. At the same time, brings sad memories for the relatives of the people who died and injured. I do not know why, but as uncomfortable it can be I like to write some to bring inaccuracies of the reported account.

First I like to bring the account of the planned defence of US by it's defence program and why it failed badly.

Let us take Mr Rumsfeld's eerie predictions shall we? The day before this on the 10th Sept Mr Rumsfeld admitted to the press that over 3 trillion dollars are missing from the Pentagon funds.

More money for the Pentagon, CBS News Correspondent Vince Gonzales reports, while its own auditors admit the military cannot account for 25 percent of what it spends.

"According to some estimates we cannot track $2.3 trillion in transactions," Rumsfeld admitted.

$2.3 trillion — that's $8,000 for every man, woman and child in America. To understand how the Pentagon can lose track of trillions, consider the case of one military accountant who tried to find out what happened to a mere $300 million.

"We know it's gone. But we don't know what they spent it on," said Jim Minnery, Defense Finance and Accounting Service.

Minnery, a former Marine turned whistle-blower, is risking his job by speaking out for the first time about the millions he noticed were missing from one defense agency's balance sheets. Minnery tried to follow the money trail, even crisscrossing the country looking for records.

"The director looked at me and said 'Why do you care about this stuff?' It took me aback, you know? My supervisor asking me why I care about doing a good job," said Minnery.

He was reassigned and says officials then covered up the problem by just writing it off.

"They have to cover it up," he said. "That's where the corruption comes in. They have to cover up the fact that they can't do the job."

The Pentagon's Inspector General "partially substantiated" several of Minnery's allegations but could not prove officials tried "to manipulate the financial statements."

Twenty years ago, Department of Defense Analyst Franklin C. Spinney made headlines exposing what he calls the "accounting games." He's still there, and although he does not speak for the Pentagon, he believes the problem has gotten worse.

"Those numbers are pie in the sky. The books are cooked routinely year after year," he said.

Another critic of Pentagon waste, Retired Vice Admiral Jack Shanahan, commanded the Navy's 2nd Fleet the first time Donald Rumsfeld served as Defense Secretary, in 1976.

In his opinion, "With good financial oversight we could find $48 billion in loose change in that building, without having to hit the taxpayers."
 

From CBS Evening News.

And we know that Flight 77, allegedly piloted by an incompetent, made an aerobatic, spiralling descent over Washington, effecting a 270-degree turn to strike the Pentagon from a western approach at ground level. The side struck was the only one with an exterior wall hardened against attack, and was relatively empty while renovation continued.

From The Pittsburg Post Gazette, December 20, 2001: "One Army office in the Pentagon lost 34 of its 65 employees in the attack. Most of those killed in the office, called Resource Services Washington, were civilian accountants, bookkeepers and budget analysts. They were at their desks when American Airlines Flight 77 struck."

The Arlington County After-Action Report noted that the "impact area included both the Navy operations center and the office complex of the National Guard and Army Reserve. It was also the end of the fiscal year and important budget information was in the damaged area." And Insight Magazine editorialized that "the Department of the Army, headed by former Enron executive Thomas White, had an excuse [for not making a full accounting]. In a shocking appeal to sentiment it says it didn't publish a "stand-alone" financial statement for 2001 because of "the loss of financial-management personnel sustained during the Sept. 11 terrorist attack."
 

 How much of this is true no one will know for atleast 100 years. Even then they will stay buried for the good of the nation. Ha! But for theory of conspiracy this is high lark. If you like to see the whole article go here please.

This 2.6 trillion did not happen on the 10th Sept 2001. It has been debated right through 2000 to 2001. Lets see what was said and when. On February 12, 2001;   "How much does it take to run the U.S. military? Gwen Ifill discusses military spending with four experts."

JOHN ISAACS........... There's still huge accounting problems in the Pentagon. They don't even know how much money they have or are spending. The inspector general of the Pentagon said there are 2.3 trillion dollars in items that they can't quite account for. That's not billion. That's trillion dollars. $2.3 trillion -- and the General Accounting Office said there are about $27 billion in inventory items that they can't find. It's not a matter of money -- if the review just results war money put into the pentagon we'll be going in the wrong direction. It's time to move back.

 

According to 2001 predicted defence budget the total is $ 305,421 million. So to get to 2,3 trillion it must have gone for years before, and that means Clinton era and before. The fact is; that was very unfortunate that the announcement by Rumsfeld came the day before. Then comes another fact: the Pentagon had all the secrets and was destroyed files, computers and most precious the people who accounted for the Gov. I have not come across this before. Most probably this was buried for a few years.

Is United Nations Biased?

I always wondered about this dilemma of the UN. So I did a bit of digging and this is what I found about it. Sorry if I made UN look smaller by calling UN 'it'. I should have used 'them' instead init?

Copied from wikipedia:

The United Nations (abbreviated UN in English, and ONU in French and Spanish), is an international organisation whose stated aims are facilitating cooperation in international law, international security, economic development, social progress, human rights, and achievement of world peace. The UN was founded in 1945 after World War II to replace the League of Nations, to stop wars between countries, and to provide a platform for dialogue. It contains multiple subsidiary organisations to carry out its missions.

There are 193 nations except of course Vatican City. They do not sit with the common people. Any way I am not going to bore you with all the details as you can read it here and here. But do not forget that WHO is part of the UN.

Back in 2009 I copied a list of killings and massacres, Zionists. It starts like this:


June 30, 1924. According to Israeli journalists Shlomo Nakdimon and Shaul Mayzlish, Dutch Jew Jacob Israël de Haan was assassinated by Avraham Tehomi on the orders of Haganah leader Yitzhak Ben-Zvi for his anti-Zionist political activities and contacts with Arab leaders.

Now these are known facts you can find from any search engine in the net. The fact is that the people who did the killings are known and very few of them were taken to a court of law. Some are acts of treason like this one:

January 11, 1941 a letter by Lehi, which would be later referred to as the Ankara document, was sent from Vice Admiral Ralf von der Marwitz, the German Naval attaché in Ankara, depicting an offer to "actively take part in the war on Germany's side" in return for German support for "the establishment of the historic Jewish state on a national and totalitarian basis, bound by a treaty with the German Reich."The letter was signed by Avraham Stern and the later Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Shamir. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ Fil...llaboration.jpg


  But if you are not lazy you can go this page. And this blog I copied from atheos blog. The original cannot be read unless invited. Any way here is the link.

Paul Kagame, president of Rwanda, was/is complicit in the civil war in Congo. He and his cohorts made immense amount of money. UN report says so. What the hell did the UN do? You can also check wikipedia for more info on him.

Here is a taste of the article.

In April 2001, he was identified as Tibere Rujigiro in the U.N. Panel of Experts on the Illegal Exploitation of Natural Resources and Other Forms of Wealth in the Democratic Republic of the Congo as one of the figures illegally exploiting Congo's wealth. His implication this time comes in financial contributions to CNDP and appropriation of land.

This brings to light the organisations he is a part of, which include but are not limited to the Rwanda Development Board, the Rwandan Investment Group, of which he is the founder, and Kagame's Presidential Advisory Council. They have members as notable as Rev. Rick Warren, business tycoon Joe Ritchie, former British Prime Minister Tony Blair, Scott Ford of Alltell, Dr. Clet Niyikiza of GlaxoSmithKline, former U.S. President Bill Clinton and many more.

Now the UN is after all sorts of people who has done crimes against  humanity, but do not want to go against the very people who has done these astrocious crimes, and their bedfellows. Do you think we are in the same planet. People of the world wake up. It is getting darker here by the minute. UK gov is going about arresting and giving long term prison sentences to the demonstrators against poverty, but is toothless taking bloody handed Blair into IRC. They block all issues. I don't really know what the American people think about their leaders like Bush. Now my dear calm down.


Do you know what NAM means it is just Non-Aligned Movement (NAM). Do you know what it stands for, what they want to do etc.  No. I did not and I found their website.  For people who do not want to go there, I shall give the gist of it.

In Indonesia they had their first meeting. And this is what the web page starts like.

The Non-Aligned Movement is a Movement of 115 members representing the interests and priorities of developing countries. The Movement has its origin in the Asia-Africa Conference held in Bandung, Indonesia in 1955. The meeting was convened upon the invitation of the Prime Ministers of Burma, Ceylon, India, Indonesia and Pakistan and brought together leaders of 29 states, mostly former colonies, from the two continents of Africa and Asia, to discuss common concerns and to develop joint policies in international relations. Prime Minister Nehru, the acknowledged senior statesman, along with Prime Ministers Sukarno and Nasser, led the conference. At the meeting Third World leaders shared their similar problems of resisting the pressures of the major powers, maintaining their independence and opposing colonialism and neo-colonialism, specially western domination.

 But the wikipedia says this:

The organisation was founded in Belgrade in 1961, and was largely the brainchild of Yugoslavia's president, Josip Broz Tito; Indonesia's first president, Sukarno; Egypt's second president, Gamal Abdel Nasser; Ghana's first president Kwame Nkrumah; and India's first prime minister, Jawaharlal Nehru. All five leaders were prominent advocates of a middle course for states in the Developing World between the Western and Eastern blocs in the Cold War. The phrase itself was first used to represent the doctrine by Indian diplomat and statesman V.K. Krishna Menon in 1953, at the United Nations.

 5 yrs is nothing. So 2012 they have 120 members according to wiki, but NAM website says 117 members as 2012. Hmmm......init ?

The policy to govern the principles of the movement were first argued and voted for in the next conference held in Cairo in 1961 The criteria for the policy of the movement at Cairo is as follows:

1. The country should have adopted an independent policy based on the coexistence of States with different political and social systems and on non-alignment or should be showing a trend in favour of such a policy.
2. The country concerned should be consistently supporting the Movements for National Independence.
3. The country should not be a member of a multilateral military alliance concluded in the context of Great Power conflicts.
4. If a country has a bilateral military agreement with a Great Power, or is a member of a regional defence pact, the agreement or pact should not be one deliberately concluded in the context of Great Power conflicts.
5. If it has conceded military bases to a Foreign Power the concession should not have been made in the context of Great Power conflicts.

In 2012 NAM held their 16th Summit meeting in Tehran, Iran. 120 Nations took part which included 27 presidents, 2 kings and emirs, 7 prime ministers, 9 vice presidents, 2 parliament spokesmen and 5 special envoys. At the summit, Iran is taking over from Egypt as Chair of the Non-Aligned Movement for the period 2012 to 2015. It was nice and friendly, I heard, until the invited guest Ban Ki Moon, the current UN Sect. General, made his speech. Speech in total can be read in this page. He says this:

Since the last NAM Summit in Sharm-el-Sheikh in 2009, this part of the world has been at the epicentre. Tunisia. Egypt. Libya. Yemen and beyond.

The Arab Spring was not imposed or exported. It did not arise from an external conflict or dispute between states.

It came from within -- from people. People who stood up for a better future.

People who spoke out for universal values.

 I am not sure this man is living on our planet. Egypt, Lybia and Syria, we all know, US, UK etc etc were involved in the uprisings. Even CIA has admitted to it. Not imposed or exported he says. I wonder whether he thinks we all are dumb and ignorant about world issues. Then he goes to Africa and says this:

In the Democratic Republic of the Congo, the security situation and sexual violence against women remain a source of deep concern. We continue to closely follow the unrest in Mali that has profound implications for the region. I commend the African Union for its firm stand against unconstitutional changes of government.

Now here he is speaking of Congo without a word about Kagami who is the instigator and money man behind Congo conflict. You remember earlier I sited the pages. UN has all the researched papers and they themselves, made a report about it. Here is a report by BBC on the 12 may of this year.

The United Nations says it has evidence that a rebellion in the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo is being fuelled by recruits and support from neighbouring Rwanda.

The BBC has seen an internal UN report which accuses Rwanda of complicity in supplying weapons and soldiers to the rebels in DR Congo.

The BBC's Gabriel Gatehouse reports from eastern DR Congo.

This is the UN's own report in 1999. It shows a very badly handled security operations in Rwanda, with the whole of the government members been killed.  And recently US has been naughty again according to this report.

The United States has been accused of blocking a UN report which examines claims that Rwanda is fuelling a violent rebellion in neighbouring Democratic Republic of the Congo.

The Congolese government said the UN group of experts' report is being stalled by Rwanda and its allies on the security council to protect President Paul Kagame.

Rwanda vehemently denies that it is sending fighters and weapons across the border. Kagame rebuked Congo and said it should take responsibility.

Kagame with friends like Blair and Clintons can easily do things we cannot even think about huh?  At the same time you cannot ignore the fact that people who live in this world are not properly made to understand. Boffins come out with big words to confuse us, common people. It is like the middle ages, when the religions were written in old languages, which a common man who cannot read will have to understand through the preachers. Now a days the bloody preachers are the teachers, politicians, etc. Media has come to the top of the list. Even the news readers are very good at talking boffin, and for me it is baffoon. Ask any of the news readers whether they understood what they read. 7 out of 10 will say no. That is a statistic, brought out by their own association.

I am as usual rabbiting on and on about UN's biased atmosphere we all complain about. we all think we cannot do sumink about it. But you all can do it. Here is what made me write this obnoxious blog about UN. If you care to read it you understand, someone who is a journalist has got an opening. I say this authour is biased as well. We all are. Read on please.

I am not going to put the whole article here, but this is what a Nambibian resident says about the UN.

The South African forces led by a certain Captain Swanepoel came with helicopter gunships and personnel carriers and attacked the SWAPO military base at Omugulu – gOmbashe and that marked the beginning of the protracted military confrontation with South African colonial forces that ended with the battle of Cuito-Cuanavale in 1988.

The struggle was long and bitter. Throughout the years we organised the struggle at the diplomatic, political and military fronts. For us these fronts were equally critical. In addition to this SWAPO sent students to study in various fields all over the world. It is not possible for me to get into the details of the struggle here, suffice it to say that throughout the years of the liberation struggle our liberation movement grew from strength to strength and we never wavered to fight the enemy effectively at all fronts.

Unfortunately, as is the case everywhere in the world there are known cases of betrayal of the struggle by the puppets and those who collaborated with the colonisers. Namibia could have got its independence in 1979 but that independence was deliberately delayed. We met with the 5 Western Contract Group of countries in New York in that year to finally find ways and means to implement UN Security Council Resolution 435. This Contract Group of Countries were the USA, Canada, France, UK and West Germany all of whom were UN Security Council members at the time.

The South African regime under the leadership of Vorster brought to New York a delegation of its puppets led by Judge Martinus Theunis Steyn as Administrator General of South West Africa (Namibia). These puppets were mostly composed of the members of the Democratic Turnhalle Alliance (DTA) so called interim Government and the leader of their delegation was Administrator-General Steyn.

One wonders how on earth can some people pretend to fight for the independence of Namibia and at the same time be in the delegation led by the same colonizers of the country they pretend to liberate. It defies any logic that any person or organization can be financed by and put in a delegation of the same enemy and colonizer whom such person or organization pretends to fight against. But that was the reality of the political situation in 1979 when we met in New York and other times in Geneva.

At that time in 1979 the South African colonial regime realized that if UN Security Council Resolution 435 will be implemented the SWAPO Party will win all the seats in the parliament therefore there was a need for South Africa to derail the process. It was with this in mind that while we were busy negotiating the implementation of Resolution 435 in New York the South African military forces bombed Cassinga and other places occupied by SWAPO in Angola to derail the process. Unfortunately they succeeded in doing so and the talks ended.

It then took another 10 years before the implementation of Resolution 435 - the years during which South Africa worked hard to create a force in Namibia that will be able to challenge SWAPO at the elections during the implementation of Resolution 435. The South African regime badly needed that time during which it intended to empower its puppets. It was during these 10 terrible years that the South African apartheid regime killed many more Namibians both in the country and in neighbouring countries.

For example the father of my own wife Palastus Shetunyenga was hanged by Koevoet and his family was not allowed to remove his body from the tree on which he was hanged until the body got decomposed. It was so cruel that the family was able only to collect the decomposed component parts of the body under the tree and burry the same.

Amarovu Junias Iita the father of Elizabeth Negumbo the present Chief of Immigration, Ministry of Home Affairs and Immigration, was also beaten to death by Koevoet elements on 16 March 1986 at Uupomako village in Okatana Constituency, Oshana Region. So also David Sheehama the father of our musician Ras Sheehama and many others, the list can go on. It is indeed painful and unfortunate but the truth must be told for generations to come to know what happened in this country of ours.

Among other serious and notorious plots were the attempts by P.W. Botha to divide Angola into South and East Angola. The whole idea was to install puppet Jonas Savimbi as a ruler of Southern Angola. By doing so the South African regime was hoping to prevent SWAPO from entering Namibian from Angola, since Savimbi as the leader of Southern Angola with the help of South Africa would have made sure that SWAPO is prevented from entering Namibia through Southern Angola.

At the same time a puppet administration was to be put into place in Namibia, which was also going to be controlled by South Africa. With a puppet government in Southern Angola and a puppet government in Namibia the Western countries would have given political and diplomatic recognition to the puppet government in Namibia thus making the efforts of the UN to implement Security Council Resolution 435 difficult if not irrelevant all together.

These diabolic schemes were known and Cuban forces instead of being withdrawn were in fact increased with the arrival of massive reinforcements 1987. New military air bases were hurriedly built at Matala and Kahama from which additional air strength was provided. MIG 23 bombers could then use these new air bases to enhance air attacks on South African forces easily. To make things worse for South Africa it became increasingly difficult for that regime to replace the military equipment and planes which the regime was loosing through attacks by the combined forces of Cuba, Angola and SWAPO because no country wanted to be seen supplying weapons to the pariah regime of South Africa openly. Slowly but surely the South African military dominance was becoming weaker.

South Africa could no longer withstand the devastating attacks by Cuban, Angolan and SWAPO forces at Cuto-Cuanavale and the war ended with South Africa being defeated. The diabolic scheme failed and the way was now open for the implementation of UN Security Council Resolution 435. SWAPO came back to Namibia with its arms that it later donated to the NDF when the new army was created.

The abovementioned protracted struggle at different stages produced heroes and heroines of this land of the brave. It is against this background that we all have to reflect and remember all our heroes and heroines on the 26 August – HEROES DAY. These heroes and heroines can be both those who are no more with us and those who are still alive. They need and indeed deserve the respect, appreciation, praise, commendation and admiration of all of us. For those who are no more with us, their blood waters our freedom.

I know the name Steyn comes out in a lot of news. A connection...you find them. I am not biased at the moment. Yes watching a game of cricket played in UK, South Africa v England, I found why that name seems familiar. World's best fast bowler Dale Steyn, who plays for South Africa. He comes from Phalaborwa

I am not the only one who thinks UN is a puppet. There are others. This article writes about the thorn in the arse of Israel Palestine, and the way the Zionists are handling the housing problems.

Israeli officials today reiterated their "outrage" at the United Nations Human Rights Council for deciding to probe illegal settlement activity in the occupied West Bank, adding that they would never cooperate with any probes and would bar any members of the mission from entering the territory.

The UN appointed a panel of three experts to conduct a fact-finding mission on how settlements, illegal under international law, impact the Palestinian civilians living under Israeli occupation.

Israeli official statements blasted the panel as inherently flawed, insisting that any investigation of Israel would have to be "biased" and that the UN should focus its investigations exclusively on "non-democratic countries."

Israel had severed all ties with the human rights council months ago when the notion was initially raised. The probe is expected to focus only on the occupation's impact on Palestinians and not its legality, since there seems to be no real question that the occupation is illegal and that the construction of settlement in occupied territory is a violation of the Geneva Conventions.

                    
Yes we in the UN have to bow down with our tail between our legs huh? The original article bt Haaretz can be read here.

Enjoy a bit of angry people about their problems in utube here.


As the last one of my long - 12 hours of reading and giving you the facts - blog I want to give you much celebrated and vilified former president of South Africa, Mr Thabo Mbeki.  In this very nicely explained article you find Thabo talking about how the UN has abused power to keep the war fires burning in Africa. Here is a taste.

Western countries use the United Nations as a Trojan horse to sideline African initiatives in brokering political dialogue and resolving conflicts in preference for military intervention to foist puppet regimes across the continent, former South African President Thabo Mbeki says.

Speaking to the media in Windhoek, Namibia, this past week, Mbeki said the UN was a willing tool for US interventionist policies and illegal regime change in Africa.

At the same time, Mbeki noted, the African Union is consistently ignored by both the UN and Western countries and lacks the military might to confront NATO.

Mbeki mediated in Cote d`Ivoire from 2004 to 2006, and using his knowledge of the country`s political problems advised the international community on how best to tackle last year`s post-electoral crisis.

That advice was largely ignored by the UN, which joined forces with France and for the first time actually conducted offensive military missions in a member state rather than restrict itself to its peacekeeping role.

Fo the more interested readers I give you the whole article.
