I have read Joseph A. Stack’s manifesto, amounting to an indictment specifically against the IRS and the Tax Code, and generally against the tyranny of the U.S. Government.  Taking an excerpt from John W. Whitehead, Is Joe Stack’s IRS Attack a Wake Up Call to America?, OpposingViews.com (blog), (opinion by the Rutherford Institute), February 21, 2010:

Stack is representative of a burgeoning class of disaffected Americans who are waking up to the reality that the American governmental system no longer works as it was intended–that is, it no longer works for them. In its place, a government of elites comprised of politicians and unelected bureaucrats has emerged that views the average American as little more than a source of tax funds and labor to keep the massive machinery of government operating. We have shifted from having a government that is “of the people, by the people, for the people” to one that is largely seen as predatory, a “government of wolves.”

Quoting Edward R. Murrow: “A Nation Of Sheep Will Beget A Government Of Wolves”

Continuing with another excerpt from John W. Whitehead’s opinion at OpposingView.com:

The question is: what are we going to do about these disaffected, disconnected and discontent Americans? How do we reach out to them and persuade them that there is a better solution than the one-way exit proffered by Stack? Note, by “we,” I’m not referring to the politicians or law enforcement officials or any other government official who might view this as a problem behavior to identify, stamp out and sweep under the rug.

It comes back to what I’ve said all along: if there is to be any hope of turning things around, it will have to start with “we the people” first recognizing that there is a problem and then working toward a solution together.

But with leftist main stream media smearing and demonizing anyone or any group standing up to abusive, totalitarian, tyrannical government practices “we the people” as individual citizens will be intimidated and terrorized by the leftist main stream media into delaying what ever lawful action we may deem appropriate because of our induced fear of government retaliation and prosecution.

Big Sister, Janet Napolitano, Secretary of Homeland Security Weighs In:

Washington (AP), Napolitano: Domestic Terrorism Should Be High Concern, February 21, 2010:

Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano said terrorists who are U.S. citizens or live in the country legally and plot against the U.S. are just as big of a concern as international terrorists.

She said that when she started as secretary a year ago, the focus largely was on international terrorists who want to harm U.S. interests. But in the past year, more of the violent extremism that has been seen overseas is showing up in the U.S.

She said officials need to drill down and analyze the factors that make a young person, raised in the U.S., migrate to extremist beliefs and actions.

Napolitano was speaking to governors who are in Washington for their annual conference.

MY OBSERVATION:

Taking the excerpt from Josep A. Stack’s Manifesto:

I know I’m hardly the first one to decide I have had all I can stand. It has always been a myth that people have stopped dying for their freedom in this country, and it isn’t limited to the blacks, and poor immigrants. I know there have been countless before me and there are sure to be as many after. But I also know that by not adding my body to the count, I insure nothing will change. I choose to not keep looking over my shoulder at “big brother” while he strips my carcass, I choose not to ignore what is going on all around me, I choose not to pretend that business as usual won’t continue; I have just had enough.

I can only hope that the numbers quickly get too big to be white washed and ignored that the American zombies wake up and revolt; it will take nothing less. I would only hope that by striking a nerve that stimulates the inevitable double standard, knee-jerk government reaction that results in more stupid draconian restrictions people wake up and begin to see the pompous political thugs and their mindless minions for what they are. Sadly, though I spent my entire life trying to believe it wasn’t so, but violence not only is the answer, it is the only answer. The cruel joke is that the really big chunks of shit at the top have known this all along and have been laughing, at and using this awareness against, fools like me all along.

I saw it written once that the definition of insanity is repeating the same process over and over and expecting the outcome to suddenly be different. I am finally ready to stop this insanity. Well, Mr. Big Brother IRS man, let’s try something different; take my pound of flesh and sleep well.

Comparing the excerpt from Joseph A. Stack’s Manifesto above with Napolitano’s new focus on “Domestic Terrorism” I have the inescapable conclusion that Joseph A. Stack’s “knee-jerk government reaction that results in more stupid draconian restrictions people wake up and begin to see the pompous political thugs and their mindless minions for what they are” was a prediction of Napolitano’s new focus on domestic terrorism and her declaration that “officials need to drill down and analyze the factors that make a young person, raised in the U.S., migrate to extremist beliefs and actions.”

Will Napolitano’s officials discover that it is the U.S. Government’s own action at cracking down on law-abiding U.S. citizens in reaction to terrorism is a factor behind this new breed of non-aligned, individual, “Americanized-kamikaze” suicide bombers? Will Napolitano and her officials realize that it is time to BACK OFF and GET OFF the backs of the law-abiding American people?

Maybe Napolitano and her officials should read psychiatric/psychological studies on bullying, torture, stress, and the breaking points of the human psyche. Oh! Wait! They are already aware of this particular human trait, what with all the fuss about water boarding! Maybe that IS their objective—oppressing the American people to submit to the militaristic, totalitarian, Socialist form of Government that is being shoved down our throats to the point we are gagging and convulsing into rebellion.

May God Save us all from our own Government!

Former comedian Al Franken is better known these days as the unabashedly liberal junior senator from Minnesota. When Franken refused on Thursday to consent to Sen. Joe Lieberman (I-CT) running over his allotted time for a statement on health care reform, liberal blogs like Firedoglake were quick to cheer the “glorious moment.”
From the conservative point of view, however, Franken is an upstart who is ignorant of the hallowed customs of the Senate and needs to be taken to the woodshed and taught his place.
Michelle Malkin condescendingly described the episode as “Franken’s little snit fit,” and the hosts of Fox & Friends were equally dismissive of what Steve Doocy called Franken’s “snippy exchange” with Lieberman.
“He’s an angry comedian,” Brian Kilmeade complained,” and now he’s an angry senator from Minnesota with a gavel.”
“Maybe there’s a new trend of people getting into politics, newbie politicians that don’t know exactly the protocol,” Gretchen Carlson suggested, assuming her best schoolmarm manner. “Maybe he will learn after being chastised by Senator McCain.”
“He needs somebody in his own party that has power over him to say, ‘Al, you’re embarrassing us,’” Kilmeade offered as an alternative. “You may not agree with Joe Lieberman, but he’s a kind — he’s a very upstanding person. He should not be treated like that, I don’t care what his position is on anything.”
“It’s very uncivil,” Doocy agreed.,
This video is from Fox News‘ Fox & Friends, broadcast Dec. 18, 2009.

Much of the initial coverage turned out to be wrong. Is there anything wrong with that?

by Glenn Greenwald

Global Research, November 9, 2009

Salon – 2009-11-06

Last night, right-wing blogger (and law professor) Glenn Reynolds promoted this media analysis from right-wing blogger (and Los Angeles Assistant District Attorney) Patterico regarding coverage of the Fort Hood shootings.  Patterico wrote:  "Whenever there is breaking news, it’s good to keep a few things in mind: . . . Always follow Allahpundit" — referring to one of the two bloggers at Michelle Malkin’s Hot Air site.

Upon reading that, I went to Hot Air to read what he had written, and it’s actually quite revealing — not in terms of what it reveals about Hot Air (that topic wouldn’t warrant a post) but, rather, what it reveals about major media coverage of these sorts of events.  Allahpundit’s post consists of a very thorough, contemporaneous, and — at times — appropriately skeptical chronicling of what major media outlets were reporting about the Fort Hood attack, combined with his passing along of much unverified gossip and chatter from Twitter, most of which turned out to be false.

It’s worth focusing on what the major media did last night, and one can use the Hot Air compilation to examine that.  I understand that in the early stages of significant and complex news stories, it’s to be expected that journalists will have incomplete and even inaccurate information.  It’s unreasonable to expect them to avoid errors entirely.  The inherently confusing nature of a mass shooting like this, combined with the need to rely on second-hand or otherwise unreliable sources (including, sometimes, official ones), will mean that even conscientious reporters end up with inaccurate information in cases like this.  That’s all understandable and inevitable.

But shouldn’t there be some standards governing what gets reported and what is held back?  Particularly in a case like this — which, for obvious reasons, has the potential to be quite inflammatory on a number of levels — having the major media "report" completely false assertions as fact can be quite harmful.  It’s often the case that perceptions and judgments about stories like this solidify in the first few hours after one hears about it.  The impact of subsequent corrections and clarifications pale in comparison to the impressions that are first formed.  Despite that, one false and contradictory claim after the next was disseminated last night by the establishment media with regard to the core facts of the attack.  Here are excerpts from Allahpundit’s compilation, virtually all of which — except where indicated — came from large news outlets:

Number of shooters

The fact that at least three gunmen are involved already has Shuster and Miklaszewski mentioning similarities to the Fort Dix Six plot on MSNBC . . . two of the gunmen are still at large and one has fired shots at the SWAT team on the scene . . . . New details from CNN: One gunman "neutralized," one "cornered," no word on the third. . . . Whether there are two shooters or three seems to be in dispute at the moment, but there’s certainly more than one:  The second shooting on the base evidently occurred at a theater. . . . Fox News says there are reports that the men were dressed in fatigues. . . . MSNBC TV says two shooters are in custody now. . . . it sounds like both shooters are military . . .According to MSNBC, there were three shooters. . . In case you’re wondering whether the other two soldiers in custody were actual accomplices or just being questioned because they knew Hasan, Rick Perry just said at the presser he’s holding that all three were shooters. . . . Hearing rumblings on Twitter right now that Perry was wrong and that the two other "suspects" have now been released. Was Hasan, in fact, a lone gunman? . . . . According to the general conducting the briefing going on right now, he appears to be a lone gunman.

The fate of the shooter

One of the shooters is dead. . . One is dead, two more are in custody. Has there ever been a case of "battle stress" that involved a conspiracy by multiple people? . . . So poor and fragmented have the early media reports about this been that only now, after 9 p.m. ET, do we learn that … Hasan’s still alive. He’s in stable condition.

The weapons used

M-16s involved: . . . From the local Fox affiliate, how it all went down. Evidently McClatchy’s report of M-16s was wrong:

The shooter’s background

According to Brian Ross at ABC, Hasan was a convert to Islam. . . . Contra Brian Ross, the AP says it’s unclear what Hasan’s religion was or whether he was a convert. . . . Apparently, one of Hasan’s cousins just told Shep that he’s always been Muslim, not a recent convert. . . .

I’m hearing on Twitter that Fox interviewed one of his neighbors within the last half-hour or so and that the neighbor claims Hasan was handing out Korans just this morning. Does anyone have video? . . . . "Brenda Price of KUSJ reported to Greta at 10:33: ‘also, the latest I am hearing, this morning, apparently according to his neighbors, he was walking around kind of giving out his possessions, giving away his furniture, handing out the Koran…’" . . .: Evidently CNN is airing surveillance footage from a convenience store camera taken this just morning showing Hasan in a traditional Muslim cap and robe. . . "A former neighbor of Hasan’s in Silver Spring, Md. told Fox News he lived there for two years with his brother and had the word ‘Allah’ on the door."

Miscellaneous claims

Good lord — there’s a report from BNO News on Twitter that new shooting is being heard on the base. . . . For what it’s worth, an eyewitness report of Arabic being shouted during the attack: . . .Federal law enforcement officials say the suspected Fort Hood, Texas, shooter had come to their attention at least six months ago because of Internet postings that discussed suicide bombings and other threats. . . . The $64,000 questions: What was he doing at Fort Hood among the population if he thought suicide bombers were heroes?

Isn’t it clear that anyone following all of that as it unfolded would have been more misinformed than informed?

The New York Times‘ Robert Mackey did an equally comprehensive job of live-blogging the media reports, and his contemporaneous compilation reflects many of these same glaring errors in the coverage:  "CNN reports that two military sources say that the second gunman at Fort Hood is ‘cornered’ . . . Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison told Fox 4 News in Texas that one shooter was in custody and ‘another is still at large’ . . . CNN’s Pentagon correspondent Barbara Starr reports that 12 people have been killed and up to 30 wounded. One of the dead is said to have been one of the gunmen. . . . Lt. Gen. Robert Cone, just revealed that earlier reports that the suspected gunman, Major Nidal Hasan, had been killed were incorrect. Major Hasan was wounded but remains alive."

Perhaps most irresponsible of all is the unverified claim that Hasan had written on the Internet in defense of suicide attacks by Muslims, even though the origins of those writings are entirely unverified.  Similarly, certain news organizations — like NPR — used anonymous sources to disseminate inflammatory claims about Hasan’s prior troubles allegedly grounded in activism on behalf of Islam.  Much of this may turn out to be true once verified, or it may not be, but all of the conflicting, unverified claims flying around last night enabled many people to exploit the "facts" they selected in order to create whatever storyline that suited them and their political preconceptions — and many, of course, took vigorous advantage of that opportunity.

I’m obviously ambivalent about the issues of media responsibility raised by all of this.  It’s difficult to know exactly how the competing interests should be balanced — between disclosing what one has heard in an evolving news story and ensuring some minimal level of reliability and accuracy.  But whatever else is true, news outlets — driven by competitive pressures in the age of instant "reporting" — don’t really seem to recognize the need for this balance at all.  They’re willing to pass on anything they hear without regard to reliability — to the point where I automatically and studiously ignore the first day or so of news coverage on these events because, given how these things are "reported," it’s simply impossible to know what is true and what isn’t.  In fact, following initial media coverage on these stories is more likely to leave one misled and confused than informed.  Conversely, the best way to stay informed is to ignore it all — or at least treat it all with extreme skepticism — for at least a day.

The problem, though, is that huge numbers of people aren’t ignoring it.  They’re paying close attention — and they’re paying the closest attention, and forming their long-term views, in the initial stages of the reporting.  Many people will lose their interest once the drama dissolves — i.e., once the actual facts emerge.  Put another way, a large segment of conventional wisdom solidifies based on misleading and patently false claims coming from major media outlets.  I don’t know exactly how to define what the balance should be, but particularly for politically explosive stories like this one, it seems clear that media outlets ought to exercise far more restraint and fact-checking rigor than they do.  As it is, it’s an orgy of rumor-mongering, speculation and falsehoods that play a very significant role in shaping public perceptions and enabling all sorts of ill-intentioned exploitation.

September 4, 2009

Bobby Eberle, writing for GOP USA, is alarmed by the latest Obama political tactic — characterizing all who would oppose Obamacare as rightwing extremists. Eberle points to a post dated the first of September on the Heritage Foundation website.

Heritage’s Rory Cooper notes a page — since removed in now standard Obama memory hole fashion — on the Obama website that called opponents to Plan Obama “Right-Wing Domestic Terrorists who are subverting the American Democratic Process.” The post on BarackObama.com called for the faithful to stay home on “Patriot Day” (what the government now calls September 11) and make two phone calls, one to each senator, and demand congress critters far and wide get aboard the Obamacare bandwagon and “defeat anti-democratic forces of hate” exercising their right under the First Amendment.

Mr. Eberle is rightly outraged by the brazen tactic and declares “the major blow is the comparison of conservatives opposed to Obama’s health scare plan to members of al Qaeda who flew planes into buildings and killed thousands of Americans.”

It’s too bad Eberle’s response is a rehashed mixture of neocon politics and the same old tired and discredited post-9/11 nonsense about al-Qaeda terrorists in caves. It plays right into the well-worn false right-left paradigm and the state-created al-Qaeda myth that are common stock for Democrats, Republicans, and the corporate media.

The Heritage Foundation is not much better. “September 11 should be a day to grieve and remember, not a day to lobby for government-run healthcare,” Cooper writes. “It certainly should not be a day to demonize fellow Americans. America’s enemies are violent extremists, bent on bring this nation to its knees, not soccer moms, dads and senior citizens who may disagree with one’s political or policy views.”

• A d v e r t i s e m e n t

The “violent extremists” in caves and madrassas half way around the world are no match for the violent extremists in the U.S. government. The late Osama bin Laden and the database known as al-Qaeda are not responsible for killing nearly a million and a half Iraqis, an undetermined number of Afghans and Pakistanis, and in an earlier era over three million Southeast Asians. In addition, al-Qaeda did not support or fund death squads in El Salvador or those in Indonesia responsible for killing between 300,000 to 400,000 “communists” (i.e., folks who opposed the brutal CIA-installed dictatorship of Suharto). The CIA-ISI contrivance known as al-Qaeda pales in comparison — is in fact nearly invisible — when compared to the high-tech murder machine neocons enthusiastically supported during the reign of George W. Bush, a continuation of earlier mass murder policies.

Eberle, Heritage, and the “conservatives” (neocons nostalgic for the days of Bush) are missing the point as they absurdly tussle over Obama’s hijacking of September 11, 2001. It is no mistake Obama’s party hacks used the term “rightwing extremists” when referring to the opposition. It is the exact same language used by the Department of Homeland Security earlier this year under the direction of Janet Napolitano. Of course, the demonization agenda is hardly the sole property of Democrats, as the neocons insist. The DHS document was originally drafted during the Bush years, as Infowars has pointed out.

It’s not the neocons per se but rather the real patriot movement the government wants to politically marginalize and declare a dangerous terrorist enemy. Most of the people protesting Obamacare over the last month do not specifically identify themselves as Republicans but rather simply patriotic Americans opposed to a tyrannical and increasingly totalitarian federal government. Republicans have cynically attempted to exploit this popular and growing discontentment. Few average Americans buy into their shameless attempt to hijack the movement — beginning with their outright theft of the libertarian tea party movement — and divisive political partisanship, endlessly hyped by the corporate media, is at best a minor issue at demonstrations.

The explicit language used on the now memory holed Obama web page is but another ominous indication of what Team Obama has in mind for the real opposition. The Fox News talking heads and their regular neocon guests such as the disagreeable Michelle Malkin need not worry about the FEMA camps Glenn Beck insists do not exist — the camps are for the real patriots, not employees at Murdoch’s propaganda mill. There will always be a need for neocons who play the phony left-right paradigm game so long as the ruling elite remain at the pinnacle of power.

It’s been less than a year since the completion of the Obama Kampfzeit — the decisive street struggles that catapulted the Nazis to power — and in the months ahead we can expect not only more demonization but possibly a full-blown police state with Obama zombies in red windbreakers ruling over us like Mao’s Red Guards. 400,000 troops will soon be put on the streets of America explicitly to deal with “rightwing extremists” who demand a return to a constitutional government.
