WHAT FASCISM LOOKS LIKE

The following report, "Riot Cops Thwart Turkish Protestors,' links to videos both from Turkey and around the world, as well:

This is Turkey's Fascist, ISLAMIC AKP government, the one selling out and off the entire Turkish state, the one that nobody here criticizes.
Now, to give everyone an exemplary idea just how brainwashed, stupid, retarded and compromised are US citizens, consider the naivete expressed in the following, a very, very brief interview with Noah Feldman, US architect of Iraq's new Fascist Constitution, regarding the role of Islamic (Iranian) Sharia law in Iraq, as presented on a very popular, satirical, daily, American comedy program from Wednesday, April 30,
(scroll down the center list for the interview with Noah Feldman, last entry at the bottom in the center box):

In Iraq, recent concrete results of the collective denial of US collusion and collaboration with Iran's exported Islamic Fascist government as represented above:

Meanwhile, anticipating Egypt's upcoming general strike, May 4, last I read, the Egyptian government is calling for a 30% pay rise for all government employees, hoping that will avert a May 4th confrontation. What it won't avert is the wholesale sellout and selloff of Egypt's industries and resources, such as that in Turkey.
Lebanon also concerned about their upcoming General Strike, discussing possible wage hikes.
Of course, NO US support.
And, I'm not going to even bother to try to refute what is being labeled, here, the/a "cause" for food riots and food shortages in many countries which had previously had an abundance of self-sustaining agricultural produce PRIOR to their privatization, globalization and production for export.
This process began a long time ago and those living, for example, within what is called the Maghreb and North Africa states could well testify to what I'm saying.
For sure, everybody on the planet knows Egypt was one amongst the largest agricultural producers on the globe.
So, what happened?
Sudan, as well.
For a quick look at a map of the area:

And, then:

ALL of the above are the results of Fascism and what it looks like. Oppressive, repressive, fundamentalist, reactionary Fascist, Islamic religiosity, disguised, masqueraded and dressed up as something other than what it is, presented as it's opposite, progressive.
Not just in Turkey, Iran and Iraq.
Fundamentalist Christianity and Zionism in the US denounced and exposed for the Fascist agenda it clearly represents.
Yet, when it comes to Islamic Fundamentalism, total, complete and unmitigated silence and collaboration, including, by the way, Obama's Reverend Wright, in the US, and his association with "Reverend" Louis Farrakhan of the mafia like Nation of Islam, the same folks who assassinated Malcolm X.
Anyway, Obama's ersatz campaign was jettisoned after his Pennsylvania debacle.
They're busy taking Obama down, now, destroying him, with Reverend Wright, altho, not before he/they destroy the Democratic Party and enable McCain to win.
This is a foretaste of what would have happened had Obama got to the General Election.
For another Fascist obscenity.
Disneyland may be coming to Iraq, but, as well, Murdoch, (another billionaire supporter of the so-called "progressive" Obama) and Saudi Prince Talal Alwaleed are teaming up to bring something to Arab countries they desperately need, Fox movies!:

Please! Please!
Don't jump up and down now and clap in unison enthusiastically out there in Arab land.
Restrain yourselves.
I realize how long you've wished for this.
Clearly, it's filling a long awaited void in your cultural heritage.
And, a reminder, of what it's all about, Alfie, "MENA Region 8th Largest Economy":

One more note.
As ALL the above unfolds, US and Iranian forces in Iraq attack Sadr, the Butcher of Baghdad.
Simultaneously, Russia is sending more troops to fortify the the Georgian breakaway republics of South Ossetia and Abkhazia in the Caucasus.
The US House of Representatives JUST initiated a resolution on this matter, HR 1166.
To read the text of the bill, in the following link, click onto the BLUE Box on the LEFT hand side with the words, "Primary Source" and you will THEN see an option for "text":

And, of course, Turkey is bombing the PKK.
As to what the US military will and can do, they can and will do anything, absolutely anything, whatever is necessary.
There are no limits and a range of options exist that people can't even imagine.
To assume any MEANINGFUL internal resistance within the US to anything they do is to defy reality.
The US is a total and complete Fascist dictatorship.
The military does whatever it wants, with the collaboration of the US Congress and the entire corporate, propertied media and establishment and their fake Left and opposition, no different from and in collusion with the fake Islamic opposition, one and the same.
First, they are taking down the Butcher of Baghdad, Sadr, as required, as I said previously.
What happens next depends on a multitude of factors, including all those above and more.
What is clear is FURTHER, not less, militarization, as a response to ALL the many challenges represented above, the success of their economic "program" and those throughout the globe partnered with them.
So, as Admiral Mullen says, don't rule anything out or anything in, for that matter.
To do so would be a giant, strategic mistake.
