[A Critique For Everyone To Despise]

I have been asked many times, '' why write blogs for free when you can earn money by writing for a well-known publication?;the public don't care, they are all sheep, at least with payment for feeding their stupid minds [the daily mirage - propaganda] you will get something out of it.'' ''They (the general public) are not worthy of the truth – because most are too lazy to go out and 'fight' [protest] or even cast their vote in it's defense.''[paraphrase]

No matter where you are in the world today – the U.S. Russia, China, Iran, Africa or North Korea, an independent thinker writing an article or blogging is probably the most dangerous profession to be in this world.

Challenging a status quo was always a hazardous profession, in any country.

The days of the media moguls controlling what you think has nearly ended – which is why governments have, in desperation, attempted to bring in worldwide legislation restricting or firewalling access to the internet – with the intent to ultimately charge you for download and content, even if, like now, you are accessing it (almost) for free.

So, if you really want to be a futurist activist, get ready to build an 'AlterNet'.

Public service, not journalism, was my first choice for work.

I am not talking about the public service where you sneak in under pretence to undermine the organisation or company whose confidential data you have sworn to protect only to release it under the banner or subterfuge of 'public interest' because you found something you didn't politically agree with in your job, 'woke up' suddenly and decided that Joe Public was your real 'boss' and that you were it's last line of defense in the known universe.

Whistleblowing in Russia, China, Iran, and North Korea are a certain death sentence, dismissal or indefinite solitary detention in their equivalent of Fort Leavenworth, in all of the above countries.  In Arab and African countries, like Saudi Arabia, that would be some rat hole prior to public execution.  In Saudi Arabia, where we (the United States, the 'free' world and it's public representatives) have over decades, all endorsed their evolution and perfection of mediaeval Koranic punishments – including stoning to death, crucifictions, public executions in ''Chop Chop Square''(Saudi Arabia) whistleblowing would be regarded as 'the work of the Devil' punishable by death.  I'll leave it to your imagination what the Muslim fanatics in the certain Arab lands have devised in law as 'punishments' for 'independent thinking' 'crimes' such as 'being a Christian' or 'converting out of Islam' (apostasy) or speaking out against 21^st century feudal Muslim rulers or dictators and their families, and the mediaeval Koranic laws, suitably adapted for Arab tribal useage, which guarantee them infinite perpetual rule over the ignorant.

[The most recent dictator of Egypt has just introduced such tyrannical laws, just to keep up to date with his counterparts in the region.]

The worst crime you can commit today therefore is to be an independent thinker.

It's The Lobby Groups, Stupid!

The Jewish Lobby, the Muslim lobby, the Arab lobby, the Iranian lobby, the GM Monsanto lobby, the Chicken lobby, the Drug Companies lobby, the Oil cartels lobby, the Armaments Industry lobby, the Private Healthcare lobby, the No Corporation nor Personal Tax lobby, the White Anglo-Saxon Protestant Lobby, the Irish Lobby, the Catholic Mafia lobby, the Racist Lobby, the Black Caucasus lobby, the Chinese lobby, The Asian lobby, the Neo-Nazi lobby, the Tea Party lobby, the Christian Evangelical Lobby, the Satanists lobby, the White Christian lobby, they will all get you on something if you stand in their way or don't get on your knees to genuflect to their Mammon, deity or Devil-God.

So you really can't win. With ignorant politicians and their lobby masters in the U.S. cracking whips in opposition to the Iran nuclear deal and ignorant politicians and religious fanatics in Iran preaching as much hatred against the United States as anywhere else in the Muslim world, there is no 'right' choice, there is no 'wrong' choice, since no path will, for example, bring all wars to an end with no further loss of life, ever, on earth.

(If you fail to appreciate the latter it's not a problem. It is written for a particular mindset from a particular point in time, and no apologies are offered here for this personal perspective.)

So, you see, there really is no 'Peace' choice in the Iran nuclear deal. Let's just call it a 'temporary cessation' of hatred, murder butchery and senseless slaughter, to the short-term benefit of the non-nuclear and nuclear armaments industries, in one small corner of the planet - which is a more apt description – if the Iran nuclear deal is either agreed or rejected:

I have thus managed to satisfy the 'blood lust' of all sides – by agreeing that a deal or no deal is...... irrelevant....... in the longer scale of things......... for all sides, but at least it represents (maybe) a temporary cessation in bloodletting by all the parties in conflict over resources and territory, in this part of the jungle.

With such 'bright' options for the future from the mainstream media on all sides, I think I'd prefer to take my chances being hated or despised by all sides than endorsed by any one.

They all, like children, play their games, then manipulate a picture of history to suit their lies.

So my advice to you is to be an independent thinker. Consider it as today's equivalent of 'urban guerilla' or 'jungle' warfare - minus the physical weapons of war.

There are probably about 250 million of you out there who think likewise.

(On the brighter side, if united, it's more supporters than ISIL/ISIS has, worldwide!)

Don't worry too much about making your way through the mainstream media jungle – or clawing your way over dead bodies to the top of the pile – just do the right thing.

I endorse the Iran nuclear deal for one very simple reason:

I've heard so much hate (and ignorance in the extreme - many just one can short of a six pack) spewed out against it – with no viable alternative – except more hatred, insanity and war – that, given it's a choice of two evils, anything else, has to be fractionally better.
