HAPPY WHITE HORSE™

Marco Rubio Is Not An Honest Broker

In the last Republican debate, Marco Rubio blasted Donald Trump for not taking the side of Israel over the Palestinians in what could be a future negotiation between those two parties, that Donald Trump, if president, would reside over.

Marco Rubio’s position was that because Israel is our friend and ally, that essentially Israel should get ninety percent of the pie – going in, as a silent precondition. And then they’d haggle over the other ten percent, with again Israel taking the greater portion of the ten percent. That was the gist of it.

To Israel: Hey, don’t worry, I’ve got your back. I’ll make sure they get squat.

At that point, the Israeli leader would generously hand over a few trinkets not in the deal to sweeten the deal and all will be happy.

Yeah, maybe in Rubio’s la-la land mind.

There can be no favoritism when one person or one entity, claiming to be an honest broker in whom both sides can trust, negotiates in the best interest of both parties.

It has to be in the best interest of both parties absent punishment for past deeds or speech directed at either party by the opposing party.

Otherwise you’re not the so-called honest broker you claim to be and you have no business negotiating except on behalf of one faction. In that scenario, there’s only one faction sitting at the table. That’s been the problem since the beginning. All the so-called honest brokers were not so honest. They all gave Israel the upper hand. That’s why there was never a viable deal that was going to happen. Israel and their negotiators made sure of that. Then they blamed the Palestinians for leaving the table, when their intent was to make them walk away in the first place.

Israel wants only one deal – their deal. When they promise to give something up, you can be sure that they designed specific areas in advance – over the years – to offer as tokens to the Palestinians. The settlers in those designated areas will make a big noise, as if they were being driven from their God-given homes supported by the bible-document, when they were paid to settle for that purpose to begin with. All done to make Israelis look like they’re making painful sacrifices.

Marco Rubio has never negotiated anything of import that could prepare him for the presidency.

Hillary Clinton already had her shot as Secretary of State and missed.

Bernie Sanders couldn’t negotiate his way out of a paper bag.

Ted Cruz goes in as Czar, and sure the Russian Jews in Israel like that, since many of them took Palestinian land under Ariel Sharon and want to keep it, but Cruz might not have the stomach to defy those who steal land, who might be willing to die to keep that land. (That’s what we did to the American Indian.)

So as an easy way out, he’ll rely on the bible-document as his main witness and proof of ownership. God said the land belonged to the Jews and so it belongs to the Jews, and so it is decided. Yeah, he would definitely use the bible-document approach.

That would be a national security risk for the USA – settlers in Israel with USA connections wanting to teach a lesson to Americans about land rights. Evangelicals would probably get on board.

Right now, since the issues all surround real estate, Donald Trump – out of all the other candidates for president – has the best chance of negotiating a fair deal – honest or not.

White People Now Have A Leader

Did Rahm Emmanuel, Mayor of Chicago, drop the security ball at Donald Trump’s rally in Chicago?

A while back, Doctor’s Without Borders operating in Syria decided not to give their location coordinates to the Syrian government or the United Nations, because they superstitiously thought that by doing so it would make them a target. The clinic/hospital was hit with a bomb and people died.

It should not have been Donald Trump’s decision to cancel the rally – if that’s what actually happened. Donald Trump knows nothing about security. Yet, if he’s having a rally, and if escalating violence at his rallies has already been demonstrated – as in Fayetteville, N.C. two days prior – then my question is where were the city security planners whose responsibility it is to make safe the places where people gather to protest – in advance of the event?

Just the other day in Anaheim, California violence erupted at a KKK rally, and the same thing happened. The police didn’t show up till after violence broke out. In other words, no pre-planning by security.

How could anyone think that in today’s tense racial climate that all will go well, especially in Chicago, where violent protests have become common? What happened to the pre-planning of security at these events? They only plan where Black Lives Matter and Occupy Wall Street show up? Well, guess what? They showed up. How could this not be predicted by security experts?

Donald Trump shouldn’t have had to cancel the rally. The area should have been made safe prior to the rally. I think the city didn’t want to pay for it. Donald Trump has security, let him pay for it. Well, it’s not really about Donald Trump, it’s about the people who gather to see him and their protection. Any where in the world where a crowd gathers, there is an issue of crowd control, especially when passions run high, where it takes only one person to ignite the crowd into chaos.

You can’t blame Donald Trump for the violence any more than you can blame Hillary Clinton or Bernie Sanders when their own supporters cause some of the disruption. But they’re both capitalizing on it.

Donald Trump is energizing America and maybe the world. White people in America – many poorer Americans and many not so poor – have been told to take it on the chin (endure or accept misfortune courageously or stoically) for decades when American Blacks rose up and burned cities. They were told to stand down, while they watched Blacks on television screaming in white people’s faces, spitting on white people, humiliating them on the streets where they live, chanting death to cops in America.

Donald Trump is the White person’s Al Sharpton – Jesse Jackson. Now it’s time for the White person to punch back. They want to be heard. All we ever heard from Black Lives Matter is their side. There was never a conversation. Black people got on T.V. spewed their hatred and prejudice against all White people on every talk show, month after month, but there was no counter argument from White people – only the news people who gave Blacks space to vent. But only the Blacks vented.

Any White person who vents about Black people is labeled a racist. That’s not a conversation.

There’s no equivalent to the NAACP (National Association for the Advancement of Colored People) for poorer Whites in America. There never has been, and there’s a lot of them. We hear Blacks wanting reparations. They got their reparations through prejudicial job placement – curing a prejudice with a prejudice – for decades. When funds get allocated for services, the minorities get them first, because they squawk the loudest, always with the threat of the group rising up as their back up plan if they don’t get what they want.

White people don’t have a group. For Blacks to think that all Whites are privileged is a glaring prejudice in itself. Each White person stands alone. That’s how we’re raised – rich or poor. So we’re going to see more Whites popping, individually. Be prepared.

Their jobs aren’t only going abroad, they see illegal persons and Blacks taking jobs as a continued, never-ending part of Affirmative Action.

The government keeps saying that White people don’t want those jobs. Well, the Donald Trumps, Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clintons, the Al Sharptons and Jesse Jacksons of the world don’t, but many poorer Whites or middle Whites do – and when they get beat out of a job by someone not as qualified, or just because someone is Black or Hispanic, they don’t like it. Nobody would. Don’t tell them to keep sucking it up.

Anybody against Affirmative Action is a racist. White America is getting sick and tired of being called names that don’t fit. They’re angry at being blamed for slavery. They’re angry at not being heard – by their voice being left out of the conversation and replaced with some news hack who is told what to say and when to say it, supposedly on behalf of all White people.

It seems that freedom speech rights are only for those whom we fear. Maybe White people are finally losing their fear of anyone who oppresses them. Maybe they’re not going to stand down any more. Maybe they’ll stand up – for themselves. Maybe they’re tired of rolling with the punches. Maybe it’s their time to punch back.

White people now have a leader – for better or worse in Donald Trump. Let us see if he does a better job than both Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson did for the Blacks.

Regardless if it may be short-lived, Donald Trump exposed a collective wound in White America.

OBAMA – TRUMP NOT THAT FAR APART

President Obama has already deported over 2.5 million illegal persons originally from South America – often separating families, that few in the populace even heard about till Donald Trump started talking about deporting 11 million persons currently residing in the USA illegally.

Even if Donald Trump wanted to actually deport 11 million people, which he doesn’t really, it doesn’t sound like that much of a stretch, given that 2.5 million persons have already been deported without much noise about it.

Sounds by the absence of noise that it went pretty smoothly.

I say, if you get convicted of a crime, and are sentenced to jail time, then you already signed your deportation papers along with those of your immediate family members.

If someone is poor in South America, chances are they’ll be poor here too. So what’s the difference? Some come here poor and raise themselves up, others don’t. Hey, I wouldn’t want to live anywhere in South America, because of all the corruption. But when you come here with that same corrupt mindset, you’re spreading a bad seed into the communities of otherwise law-abiding immigrants. Those communities don’t want it – that’s what they fled, only to discover that it sneaked in with them. Ouch.

Latino/Hispanic men pride themselves on being the heads of the families. Then take care of your families in a respectful way. Our streets are not lined with gold.

Empty the jails of people who come here illegally with the intent of committing crimes and getting away with it.

On the other hand, the USA has to stop using Israeli models to manage minorities here. It didn’t work with the Palestinians and it won’t work here with American Blacks and South Americans. Containment camps? In the USA? What is it about a mother and/or father who would send their little children on a journey to the USA alone? To find a better life? No. Better to die on the streets in America, than to die on the streets of their communities in South America?

Desperation? Despair? What happened to the ingenuity that they claim to have once they get to the USA? They didn’t have it in their own communities back home? Ingenuity doesn’t come from a community, it comes from the individual human spirit. America seems like an easy – though always difficult – way out.

I’d rather keep the family whole and commit to surviving and thriving together as a family in my community, no matter how corrupt. If they can do it here, they can do it there. Hispanics/Latinos are politically-minded people. Those oppressed often are. Use those acquired skills to fight corruption where you live.

ACHILLE’S HEEL

You know how everyone has an Achille’s heel?

Donald J. Trump is the heel.

To The Military

Carrots and sticks. Again?

When you keep dangling the carrot, while beating your adversary with sticks, eventually your target won’t want the carrot. They give up, because they know they’ll never get it.

At that point the sticks become irrelevant.

At that point is where most factions prefer war.

Many wars are initiated out of a sense of hopelessness.

Ted Cruz Wants To Be Your Czar

Ted Cruz, republican presidential candidate, wants to be the European Union.

He wants 50 states to become 50 countries – under him.

And he wants you, his adoring people, to make him Czar.

Yes, Rafael Edward Cruz wants to be your Czar.

An American Canadian Cuban with four faces has a grand plan.

REINDEER WALKERS THEY CALL THEM – sounds like they’re doing something really good

Reindeer are still very radioactive 30 years after Chernobyl.

April 26 marks the 30-year anniversary of the worst civilian nuclear disaster in history. When a nuclear power plant at Chernobyl, in what is now Ukraine, exploded, it coated the earth with radioactive material — as far as the picturesque, snow-capped mountains of Scandinavia, where for generations, the indigenous Sami people lived in harmony with nature.

Chilling photos of Norway’s “radioactive reindeer.”

Stunning large photos. Take a look…

HWH Comment: The reindeer walkers are devastated.

How about the reindeer whom they walk to slaughter? The Sami people are still trying to eat them. Think their God is trying to tell them something that they’re ignoring out of their thirst for the blood? Find another way to build your economy.

Living in harmony with nature somehow in my mind doesn’t include slaughter.

Romanticizing slaughter is one of the reasons the world continues to engage in that horror.

A UN WAKE UP CALL

A mass extinction of bees and butterflies could threaten world crops, UN report finds

Many species of wild bees, butterflies and other critters that pollinate plants are shrinking toward extinction, and the world needs to do something about it before our food supply suffers, a new United Nations scientific mega-report warns.

The 20,000 or so species of pollinators are key to hundreds of billions of dollars’ worth of crops each year — from fruits and vegetables to coffee and chocolate. Yet 2 out of 5 species of invertebrate pollinators, such as bees and butterflies, are on the path toward extinction, said the first-of-its-kind report. Pollinators with backbones, such as hummingbirds and bats, are only slightly better off, with 1 in 6 species facing extinction…

the perversity of surveillance

If Apple loses, your home could be the next thing that’s unlocked, Access to your security cameras would be just a judge order away…

In a recent interview about Apple’s ongoing legal battle with the Department of Justice, Tim Cook said that our smartphones have more information about us and our families than any other device we own. He’s right. And if the FBI is able to compel Apple or any company to circumvent a phone’s encryption, it would tap into a wealth of information. But it’s not just the tiny computers in our pocket we need to be concerned about. Your home and car tech could also be affected by the ruling if law enforcement deems it necessary.

Look around your home, office or car. How many microphones, cameras or sensors are pointed at you right now? Even if these devices are not connected to a service or server, they’re probably still there watching and listening. Hopefully the manufacturers did their jobs and all those eyes and ears are encrypted. But, if Apple is forced to help the FBI get into that iPhone, even that encryption won’t matter.

The Internet of Things have been a target of security researchers (and rightfully so), but that’s forced companies to make it a priority to secure these devices. Which is paramount because they record an incredible amount of information about you and your family. Cameras like the Nest Cam track who comes in and out of your home. Microphones embedded in devices like the Amazon Echo and smart TVs let you check the weather, change channels and order items with your voice…

THE RIGHT TO BEAR A FLAG POLE?

Ku Klux Klan rally in Anaheim erupts in violence; three stabbed

Three people were stabbed, including one of who was critically wounded, and several others were arrested when a Ku Klux Klan rally in Anaheim erupted in violence Saturday, police said.

“Witnesses said the Klansmen used the point of a flagpole as a weapon while fighting with protesters”

HWH Comment: Years ago in Cleveland, Ohio the KKK staged a rally. The security was so stringent that people planning on attending were not even allowed to bring their car keys to the rally. A woman in a wheelchair was refused entrance, because the FBI said she could use the wheelchair as a weapon and throw it up on stage at the Klansmen.

Yet the Klansmen were allowed to strut up and down the stage waving their huge flag poles with what looked like spears at the tips of them. I recall writing a short article about the unfairness in the way the crowdspeople were scrutinized compared to the Klansmen on stage.

Why was it okay for the Klansmen – in hoods so nobody could identify them – to bear arms, brandishing them on stage, walking up and down the stage, doing all kinds of gyrations with them, yet the crowdspeople were notified in advance via the media that they couldn’t even take their car keys to the rally, because they could be used as weapons?

I argued that the spears flaunted by these unidentified Klanspeople could also we used as weapons. All one of them would have to do is throw it into the crowd with the intent to do harm. I mean come on, somebody with multiple sclerosis gets booted from the rally because she might be able to get her feeble self out of the chair, lift it up and throw it all the way to the stage with the intent of harming a Klansperson? A car key a weapon? A wheelchair a weapon? If so, then the flag spears were also weapons.

Well you can probably guess that the FBI at the time did not appreciate that article I wrote. Still, both sides should have been treated equally.

Now comes another rally, many years later, absent a police presence (according to news accounts) till the violence broke out – (are you kidding me – in today’s racial climate? no police presence?) and guess what? the Klansmen used their flag bearing spears as weapons!!!

No more flag poles at rallys. Let them wear their flags on their persons. And the police need to reassess probabilities of violence anywhere the KKK shows up. Protect the crowd and those exercising their speech freedom rights.

DOES DONALD TRUMP REALLY HAVE A GREAT MEMORY?

If so, he hasn’t demonstrated it yet.

Donald Trump, Republican presidential hopeful, often brags about his great memory.

He does appear to have a good memory for a multitude of impressions of past events, but we all have that.

What he appears to lack is a good memory for detail.

Along with the lack of detail is his penchant for repeating himself. Were he any other 69 year old person, those witnessing both in him would worry he had early onset Alzheimer’s Disease.

It could be that he’s intellectually lazy. Although by his own accounts he is an avid reader and viewer of the news, he rarely gets it right. He gets an impression, then moves on without intellectually examining further what he sees and reads. He goes with his gut and seemingly only his gut. The news media rarely gets it right Donald.

I don’t care what his IQ was or where he went to school or even what his grades were way back when or whether he filed for bankruptcy. What I care about is his ability to solve problems beyond the next money deal Now. Although money makes the world go around, without consideration for the people – the workers – who make that happen, it’s going to be more of the same: The rich will continue on their present path of securing more money, thus more power, while those who make the money for them stay impoverished.

He doesn’t have to give the details of his plans for the future of this country and the world, since details change once in office and one is confronted with the actual situations on the ground. What he does need to demonstrate – beyond all the great people he’s going to employ to get the job done his way – is that he has what it intellectually takes to lead those he employs.

It appears now that once he gets into office he’s going to need an interpreter in order to communicate effectively to all those great people he keeps referring to.

If being a billionaire qualifies someone to become the leader of the world, then I’m worried. He didn’t become a billionaire by helping 90% of the population anywhere in the world. Neither did any billionaire. They become rich on the backs of the populace – only because there are so many of us.

One could say he’s quirky. Okay, so he’s quirky. All dictators are. They originally all communicate the same thing to the populace. They want to lift you up – everyone. But they never do. They garner more and more power till eventually the populace wakes up and overthrows them.

I imagine Donald Trump walking out onto a stage adorned with a red velvet cape – King’s cape – and throwing it out to the adoring crowd for someone, some lucky person, to catch. One person will cherish that cape forever, but that’s all they’ll get, and all the onlookers will get – from this King.

That vision could be all wrong. What may not be wrong is the constant repeating of himself and the poor detail component of memory that he exhibits, possibly signaling a deeper problem within his brain.

Maybe he’s sleep deprived. Maybe not.

His other more disturbing ‘penchant’ for getting back at people who criticize him probably has given all current and future world leaders the jitters. I don’t know if that’s such a good idea. People act erratically when they get the jitters.

Frankly, I’m tiring of Donald Trump. Where once I jumped out of my office chair to go to the television when I heard his voice, I still jump, but after the first few sentences I turn the television to music and return to the office. Nothing new there.

Too much sizzle makes one think that’s all he’s got. Even on Madison Avenue that doesn’t work long term.

Most people when they get into the Presidential chair, realize the bubble that chair put them into. Donald Trump is already in that bubble.

He keeps saying he loves everybody. Then stop hating those who criticize you. They have a right to criticize you. Once in office, the criticism gets much worse. Can you handle that?

Syrian government not given GPS data of hospital hit by strike

GENEVA (AP) — Doctors Without Borders says it took the wrenching decision not to formally inform Syria’s government or its Russian allies about the location of some medical facilities like one hit by a deadly airstrike this week, amid concerns that by doing so it could open them up to targeting amid recent violence that has injured and killed many civilians.

Source: Syrian gov’t not given GPS data of hospital hit by strike

HWH Comment: Medical staffers shouldn’t be making security decisions for everyone else at their hospitals. That action should have been discussed with security experts.

That inappropriate action cost lives. Doctors Without Borders need to stick to treating the sick and injured and leave the security aspect of their operations to those trained to make security decisions.

If this had happened anywhere else law suits would follow this gross negligence on the part of the medical staffers – and it should.

Memphis Meats Introduces Meat Grown In A Lab

Comment: On 4 February 2016 Memphis Meats debuted their first lab grown meat in the form of a meatball in San Francisco.

Rather than seeking less painful means of slaughter, which is the direction the slaughter industry wants to go – which is a contradiction in itself (after all, slaughter is slaughter) – Memphis Meats is growing animal tissue in laboratories from live cells obtained from fetal blood serum of unborn calves.

Memphis Meats is jumping ahead by a few giant steps, possibly half century, with the goal of eliminating the slaughter industry.

Though they claim not to have to raise animals for the purpose of eating them, they’ll still have to raise some animals for their live blood serum cells. Even so, the number of animals saved from horrific, drawn out deaths in slaughter houses and elsewhere can be potentially huge – eventually eliminating the slaughter industry altogether. And once we perfect the process, then other countries will want to get on board.

On the other hand, if once they obtain the cells, they can reproduce more cells from the original cells, then the enslavement industry of those we eat will be eliminated as well.

This doesn’t mean that the plant-based alternative meat industry should in any way slow down their endeavors to produce humane meats. What it means is that the more people who participate in eliminating torture and slaughter, the greater the odds of success.

HWH

From VegNews:

Memphis Meats is one of the newest—but most promising—contenders in the race to produce animal-free meat.

Memphis Meats, a bio-tech startup based in San Francisco, made headlines this week with the unveiling of both its first product and its business plan to make animal agriculture obsolete. “This is absolutely the future of meat,” Memphis Meats CEO Uma Valeti told The Wall Street Journal. “We plan to do to the meat industry what the car did to the horse and buggy…

Why Memphis Meats?

We love meat. But like most Americans, we don’t love the many negative side effects of conventional meat production: environmental degradation, a slew of health risks, and food products that contain antibiotics, fecal matter, pathogens, and other contaminants.

That’s why we started Memphis Meats. We’re creating a new kind of farming, one that provides the same delicious meat we grew up with—without all the drawbacks. With one foot in San Francisco and the other in Memphis, Tennessee, we’re using the innovative spirit of Silicon Valley coupled with the rich culinary traditions of the American south to provide better meat for the entire world.

Our concept is simple. Instead of farming animals to obtain their meat, why not farm the meat directly? To that end, we’re combining decades of experience in both the culinary and scientific fields to farm real meat cells—without the animals—in a process that is healthier, safer, and more sustainable than conventional animal agriculture. Our products are delicious, too: all are developed with recipes honed over a half century by award-winning chefs.

ROGER AILES aka CHARLIE HEBDO

Statement issued by Fox News regarding Donald Trump prior to the Republican Candidate Presidential Debate scheduled for 1-28-2016:

“We learned from a secret back channel that the Ayatollah and Putin both intend to treat Donald Trump unfairly when they meet with him if he becomes president — a nefarious source tells us that Trump has his own secret plan to replace the Cabinet with his Twitter followers to see if he should even go to those meetings.”

Later, Fox News called their statement “a satirical observation” – as their defense.

Roger Ailes, Chairperson and CEO of Fox News, wants to be Charlie Hebdo – an infamous satirist news rag that kills people with words and cartoon images, pleading artist expression through comedy, and speech freedom, as their defense.

It didn’t work in Paris. Don’t try to make it work in the USA. Stop acting like a Parisian in Terrorist drag with the intent of killing off anybody. You’re not funny. Your words aren’t funny. Your motives are mean-spirited and xenophobic.

Conjuring up in people’s minds images of Muslims and terrorists associated with a presidential candidate in the USA is the same as drawing a picture of a cartoon and publishing it. Inserting President Putin of Russia and the Ayatollah into your Charlie Hebdo game with Donald Trump, because he said he would talk to all world leaders and you wanted to quash that thought was juvenile and inappropriate. Until you know what various cultures consider funny, keep your destructive words to yourself.

It’s not your job to punish. It’s your job to publish fair and balanced.

Charlie Hebdo is not fair and balanced – and neither is the Chairperson and CEO of Fox News – Roger Ailes.

THE 7 BOY REPUBLICAN DEBATE

1-28-2016

Contrary to the after-the-debate analysis by well-known pundits on television, this debate was anything but boring.

Although Donald Trump was MIA, the 7 boy line up, channeled Donald Trump’s energy and style with remarkable ease – which proves they all, individually and collectively, are a quick study, which proves further that they all can act.

One over-riding impression, individually and collectively, of all boys standing on the stage begging to be president of the world was a profound absence of sincerity, an over-abundance of hypocrisy and a stunning ignorance of reality.

Sorry boys. You just didn’t deliver.

No perfect candidate here.
