THE SURREAL COMEDY CALLED REALITY


I cannot write fiction. I was not blessed with such a fertile and fantastic imagination.
Reality is much more overwhelming, ironic, fantastic, unbelievable and convincing than any fiction I could possibly dream up.
I leave fiction to more capable hands and minds than mine.

So, I have no other way, words, terms to describe and express what I see unfolding before my eyes than the surreal comedy of reality, a juxtaposition of ironic facts versus the disconnect of official and unofficial mythological, implausible, inconsistent, irrational narratives, explanations and denial.
Alice In Wonderland Through the Looking Glass--darkly, I might add.

For example, YESTERDAY, in my blog, just below, I linked to an article, report, about Hamid Jafar's interlocking, interconnected Crescent Oil (Dana Gas/Abraaj) octupus now apparently planning to expand and develop Iran's South Par's gas field.

This morning, I truly gasped and began laughing aloud, really, aloud, as I read the following report.
I continue chuckling to myself amusedly whenever I think about it.
I can't tell anybody, here.
They have NO idea to what I am referring:

"TEHRAN, Mar 11, 2009 (AFP) - A top Iranian official said on Wednesday that French energy giant Total will have no "active role" in developing a huge gas field in Iran and that a new partner had been found for the project..."
END OF EXCERPT, above, from following link, which is just an AFP reprint:

The AFP report NEVER names the partner.
As if it is a mystery!
How much more obvious and comical can all this subterfuge and double, triplespeak be?

Meanwhile, on the subject of Hamid Jafar's interconnected Dana Gas/Crescent Oil/Abraaj octupus, Abraaj Capital, aside from the above, is expanding further, of course:

Now, for the next part, I ask the reader's indulgance here to understand that if one is situated in the middle of United Assholes and Suckers nation almost NOBODY knows, for EXAMPLE, both Turkey and Iran are bombing the PKK, that an ogoing, hot war exists about which nobody here is aware, unless, of course, like myself, one goes searching for specific information on the internet and alternative sources.
So, keeping in mind the above note, more surreal comedy:

"...Ex-PKK terrorists joining US army to fight in Afghanistan- Turkish TV
Some ex-members of the terror organization PKK are being recruited to the U.S. army to join military operations in Afghanistan, broadcaster Kanal D reported on Tuesday..."


Above EXCERPT continues in the following:

Well, as the proverbial "they" say, one man's (un or underemployed) terrorist is another's freedom fighter.

And, then, we arrive at Egyptian Privatization.

In addition to recent Israel/Egypt/Gaza/Lebanon gas wars, there's Eygpt's EFG-Hermes and, once again, numerous interconnected, overlapping, corporate directorships and shareholders, Citigroup, the burgeoning Dana Gas empire, etc.

THIS/THAT is THE PATTERN, characteristic of modern or latter day capitalist Nazi/Fascist DICTATORSHIPS, along with concomitant internal and external military suppression and repression needed, by definition, to accomplish this goal.
So, an EXCERPT, link/article below:

"...Mahmoud Mohieldin, Egypt's minister of investment since 2004, knows full well he's in the eye of the storm. Abroad, economies are in shreds, trading partners have mothballed their ships and new foreign investors are almost impossible to identify. At home, his plan to hand over majority of ownership of most of the state-owned companies to the public is under fierce fire. ...
....Of late, Mohieldin has drawn fire by setting out a plan to transfer majority ownership of 85 publicly-held Egyptian companies to the public by listing them on the EGXEGX The Egyptian Exchange and giving citizens a bundle of shares. The details are copious in this project, which Mohieldin describes as "an Egyptian version of mass privatization to transform state ownership to Egyptian public ownership." But it's not going to be "your typical eastern European mass privatization..."

And, finally, last but not least, a few anecodotal notes on the surreal comedy of everyday life in the bowels of United Suckers and Assholes Nazi Dictatorship.

A new coalition has emerged, in response, having noticed that they have been totally and completely excluded by the Nazi Citigroup/Exxon Obooma Administration, advocating and organizing SPECIFICALLY for universal, single payer health care insurance here in United Suckers and Asshole Dictatorship.
Here's their website:

http://www.singlepayeraction.org/

Very nice.
However, this development is now going to pit the advocates of not-for-profit universal single payer, government sponsored medical insurance directly AGAINST our Nazi collaborative labor unions, who are busy supporting all things Obooma, including his/their for-profit, privatized, health care insurance industry AND its expansion into the Middle East through their/our pension fund investments.

This will lead inevitably to heightened confrontations, tensions and contradictions between and within the Nazi Citigroup/Exxon Obooma Dictatorship, organized labor and everybody else, all of whom will shortly discover how irrelevant, meaningless, marginalized and powerless are they within the current power edifice, lacking either full or partial backing of a MILITANT, unified and politicized labor force, population and strikes.
Nonetheless, this will lead to further political fracturing.
And, the true meaning of class war and power will become apparent and evident to all.

Simultaneous with the above, I receive e-mails daily from a variety of sources, organizations, individuals, so-called 'community groups,' ALL OF WHOM SUPPORT or SUPPORTED NAZI CITIGROUP OBOOMA's candidacy, his/their trillion dollar tax stimulus, bank bailouts, giveaways, trillion dollar debt, such as the notorious and infamous Acorn, local labor unions, the panopoly of the ersatz Left, all now complaining about horrific local, city and state public service cutbacks, pension funds, disproportionate taxes, health care, labor issues, etc., totally oblivious of the cause and effect relationship in which THEY, themselves, participated and helped to produce. Well, as I said, the charateristic is surreal.

And, lastly, a minor, but, personal note, a hilarious surreal experience to me, at least.
While flipping through TV channels to get to the one I wanted the other day, I did a doubletake when my eyes HAPPENED to land upon the Chairman of the CPUSA (Communist Party USA) being interviewed on Nazi Ruppert MURDOCH'S FOX TV station!
Talk about the odd couple.
Now, what was the Chair of the CPUSA doing on Murdoch's TV station?
The CP Chair was singing the praises of Nazi Citigroup/Exxon's Obooma Administration. After all, both Obooma and the CPUSA Chair represent the Left, don't they?
So, what better than to bring the CPUSA itself to defend Obooma's Leftist bona fide credentials, should anyone begin to question this fact.
Again, I found myself laughing hysterically aloud.
Hollywood entertainment could not do it better.
Of course, I take him/it with a grain of salt.
It is ALL entertainment, theatre, amusement, ascribed role playing, acting, scripted.
The CPUSA has been purged, infiltrated, decimated A LONG TIME AGO, like our labor unions.
Both became extensions, adjuncts of the Democratic Party and ersatz Left.
There is a joke, more or less, that the CPUSA is a WPA,(Roosevelt's New Deal acronym, 'Work Project Administration,' employment project) for covert agents and operatives.
Without them, the CPUSA would disappear and evaporate.
On that apogee of SURREAL life in Nazi Citigroup/Exxon Obooma's Alice in Wonderland Through the Looking Glass-Darkly Dictatorship, I will arbitrarily terminate this entry.
