Venezuela: We cannot sail towards socialism on the capitalist Ship of State


Venezuela: We cannot sail towards socialism on the capitalist Ship of State

By  Franz J. T. Lee

There has been a great interest in our last philosophic reflections about the general character of class struggle and consciousness in Venezuela and elsewhere; also about our views with reference to the current aggressive threats against Venezuela; but also with regard to the Oil Leaks in the Gulf of Mexico. Our under and post graduate students, who are employed in all walks of political life, have asked us to continue with the simple clarification of some central current socialist issues, like peace, war and emancipation.

As a result of ideological indoctrination and manipulation, millions, if not billions, do not have the foggiest idea what is capitalism and in what an apocalyptic disaster it will end. For class conscientization, it is very difficult to explain to the saturated victims of ruling class 'Newspeak' (Orwell) that they have become addicted to consumer drugs, 'religious opium' (Kingsley) and ideological prozac. Many of us cannot fathom what really is happening in the Gulf of Mexico. Capitalism really blew its own top and therewith is showing what is reckless violence against humanity.

(See: the 'Methane Eruption' video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=25BE42PzZZc&feature=player_embedded )

  Venezuela, our urgent warning has nothing to do with prophecy, atheism, conspiracy theory, science fiction or end times. It is simply the logical earthly consequence of the 'empire', of the current mode of destruction, that is, of production, of capitalism.

Also, it is neither a question of collapse theory, of the objective breaking down of capitalism due to its internal contradictions, nor is it one of a cock-sure transcendental 'happy end' , of a final bon voyage towards heaven, nirvana, socialism and communism.

Experiments by nature can be successful or they can fail; in capitalist production, mostly they result in a disaster. The belligerent species homo homini lupus is a typical example of an aborted planetary experiment. That this ruling class horror experiment, this Frankenstein monster, outlived all the past methane gas explosions. shows its tenacious, aggressive, violent quintessence. The 'most beautiful flower' (Engels) of Mother Nature and the 'Crown of Creation' are now being fatally threatened by corporate barbarism.

Of course, the experiment 'life' on planet Earth, in the solar system, could fail, and we better should get used to this truth. In other words, it is not an 'or' issue, rather it is a ''neither nor'' question, of how to get out of heaven and its other side, out of hell. Heaven and hell dialectically are two sides of the same historic, productive process, the one cannot live without the other.

From my African elders I have learned that you cannot poison the black mamba snake with its own mortal venom.

Venezuela: We cannot sail towards socialism on the capitalist Ship of State.

If we expect the worst from corporate capitalism, anything less could just be bliss.

Currently, the worst is the inexorable, insatiable, megalomaniac, corporate hunger for natural resources, energy and oil. Hence, It is the problem of getting out of the dialectical contradictions: reform and revolution, peace and violence, capitalism and socialism.

It is a matter of the NEW, of which Che Guevara, Frantz Fanon and Ernst Bloch were daydreaming. To enter the NEW we have to exit, to organize an exodus, to philosophize the exvolution.

We have to annihilate work or labor, the umbilical cord of capitalist surplus value, profits and private property accumulation.  As workers and capitalists, as 'perverse', absurd, unilateral relations between Nature and Society, we are the problem, hence why not start with the solution of the man-made problem before Big Brother annihilates billions of obsolete workers.

Our scientific, philosophic guide: 'Neither Peace Nor Violence' is Emancipation. To transcend Capitalism, and its Negation, Socialism, is 'Human  Emancipation' (Marx).

Then keep on running your mouths, people, because it gets worse, not better. In fact, did you know that it will never get better EVER?!!

      Horseman, the Holy Trinity consists of God (the Father, Jesus (the Son), and the Holy Spirit. Quit finding things to find fault in because you cannot! The devil did not convince anyone that God sent His only begotten Son to die on the cross for our sins. It’s simply what happened. The truth is simple. You don’t have enough of it. You aren’t strong enough to sift through what is and what isn’t. Seek the Lord and all the rest will be added unto you.

      Lunsford, you’re a dumb ass. Anyone can hate God: hell, the path of least resistance is the easy one and the one chosen by most people. Searching for God is hard and takes a lifetime. We know which one you obviously chose. You chose the path of least resistance. You will have much company in Hell….
 
13. Tom Says:
      July 19th, 2010 at 8:22 pm

      Keb, people who study the Bible and know a few things are right to believe that we probably won’t make it to 2035 AD. The only major events left are the Rapture, the regional war with Israel, and WWIII/Tribulation. How long can the NWO keep us going with headlies decrying the coming war(s)?!! Repent, the End is near, dude!!!
 
14. Tom Says:

      No, Beav, don’t flee. Fight.
 
15. Tom Says:
      July 19th, 2010 at 8:24 pm

      NO, we should already know that. What is important is to stop those in control (and unfortunately, the only way is violent and the start will be bad for us) and return ourselves to our former glory.
 
16. Tom Says:
      July 19th, 2010 at 8:25 pm

      Thank you. The real sad part is that both world wars were started by the NWO and are stepping stones towards the NWO. God Bless Those Who Served.
 
17. Tom Says:
      July 19th, 2010 at 8:27 pm

      Forsake Israel and die. If you consider God, then you know that Israel is MORE important than most everything else. Palestine is the suicide bomber(s) and Israel is the victim. Learn who is who, THEN post. Meanwhile, what are you going to say to Jesus on Judgement Day?

      “Duh! I thought Israel was the BAD guy! I’m so sorry!”
 
18. Tom Says:

      July 20th, 2010 at 3:47 pm

      Hey Horseman, how can the earth go through ‘massive change’ when there isn’t ‘much time left’?!! ONE of those two statements is true! And unless God chose you to be a witness, you really don’t have a ‘job to do’. You are as psycho as Poo Poo Ass Reamer.

      There is not much time left. We are the last generation on this planet. Most of us will see either the Rapture or Armageddon. The next major event is the Middle East conflict which escalates into WWIII. The NWO can only stall with headlies for so long now. It’s so very close now. Get right with God and quit making s--- up. There is a Judgement Day, and that right quickly.
 
20. Tom Says:
      July 20th, 2010 at 3:47 pm

      EXCEPT PUT A BULLET IN HIS HEAD FIRST. WE HAVE COME TO THAT NOW. SHOOT FIRST OR NEVER GET A CHANCE TO SHOOT AT ALL. HOW COME NOBODY UNDERSTANDS THAT PART….?
 
21. Tom Says:
      July 20th, 2010 at 3:49 pm

      You might do something good for your family or friend, but that’s it. Good, done at the lowest possible level. Good is not being done anywhwere else or at a larger level.
 
22. Tom Says:
      July 20th, 2010 at 3:51 pm

      Hysteria? What hysteria? Events are so evil in this world that you could shout out loud and not have covered it. Fear? What fear? Since nobody will get up off the couch and do anything, we have only to assume that nobody is scared. Too bad the NWO doesn’t get theirs until they die. That’s one main reason why they think they’re in the right. They don’t believe in God or an afterlife, so they actually think they are benevolent or in the right!!!
 
23. Tom Says:
      July 20th, 2010 at 3:53 pm

      Hurricane Katrine was man-made and steered in New Orleans. Bush asked Russia to do it with their “scalar” system since our H.A.A.R.P. system is not as strong. Haiti was a man-made earthquake, as was Chili. So was the BP oil spill. Just wait. They aren’t done yet.

      And of course, unless we physically stop them, they win.
 
24. Tom Says:
      July 20th, 2010 at 3:54 pm

      But we can’t wait. We are totally justified in going first. Shoot first. Shoot them first. You are justified in walking into the White House and letting ‘er rip. (Don’t respond, expresadvisor.) Why won’t anyone do this?

      What can we say? I’ll tell you what you can say, Vic. You can say: “Honey, I’m home! And I hung six politicians by the neck until they were dead, and I helped JoBob and Billy kill fourteen cops. I need to get up early tomorrow and I think we’re going over to City Hall and kick some butt over there. Did you go to the store for more ammo like I asked? Etc. etc. etc. ”

      How about that, Vic? Got what it takes? ‘Cause if America falls, Canada won’t get there fingers out of our shirttails in time to save themselves….
 
27. Tom Says:
      July 20th, 2010 at 4:01 pm

      I wish, Last Stand. But my Lions won’t win 9 games this year…….again. Dammit.

      Meanwhile, that’s exactly what we have to do: wage war against the bullies, as in with guns and bombs. But we have to win to live.
 
28. Tom Says:
      July 20th, 2010 at 4:08 pm

      Yes, the Bible talks about the Rapture. Those not taken to Heaven by Jesus personally will be left on earth. These will experience the 7-year Tribulation Period. The earth is temporarily Lucifer’s. This also ends soon. Yes, Keb, Jesus comes to earth with His Angels to clean house (Armageddon), and God is currently causing all who hate Israel to come to the Valley of Decision (Middle East) to ‘drink, continually, in turn of His wrath’.

      Hinz, no, God does not want you to play God and ‘do it for yourself’. How can people do it for themselves when they can’t even pray to God in earnest? The easiest thing in the world (believe in God) seems to be the hardest thing in the world.
 
29. Tom Says:
      July 20th, 2010 at 4:09 pm

      The globalists do NOT control my religion which is a personal thing between Jesus and myself. They control the Catholic blasphemy, which will become the FORCED One World Religion. God will intervene after it becomes apparent that humans have no desire to get up off the couch and shoot cops/judges/world leaders/ and NWO folks dead. Learn what is what before posting.

Venezuelanalysis Weekly News Round-Up

Venezuelanalysis Weekly News Round-Up

In the news last week, Venezuela continued to sign international oil deals and invest oil profits in food production. Contrary to U.S. claims that Venezuela does not cooperate in the fight against terrorism and drug trafficking, Venezuela extradited a suspected terrorist to Cuba and three suspected drug traffickers to the U.S. Domestically, the National Union of Workers decried the continued assassinations of labor organizers, and stepped up its efforts to promote worker control of the economy. Finally, the Banco de Venezuela, one year after being nationalized, showed unprecedented growth in deposits and loans to the country's productive sector.

In our analysis section below, you will see the latest report on U.S. funding to Venezuelan opposition journalists and other articles defending Venezuela against U.S. imperialism, as well as some critical pieces focused on the ALBA trade bloc, LGBT issues, and contradictions in the PSUV.

Analysis

Venezuela, Worker Control, and Self-management
In the middle of the deepest crisis that the capitalist system has ever seen, when it’s already showing its cruellest face, when anger and sometimes impotence spreads among those of us with years fighting and predicting the consequences, the lights of hope that show us that another world is possible pass us by unnoticed.

Imagine if Barack Obama, upon taking office in January 2009, had decided to deliver on his campaign promise to “end business as usual in Washington so we can bring about real change.”

A Tale Of Two Extraditions
The United States government should practise what it preaches on terrorism. But the way it deals with terrorist extradition requests from Venezuela and its history of intervention in countries in the region - such as Jamaica - show terrorism, terrorists and the selective use of the terms are merely a function of a self-interested ideological foreign policy.

ALBA: How Much of a Turn to the Left in Latin American Governance and Economic Policy?
The Bolivarian Alliance for the Peoples of Our America (ALBA) regional integration model is based on a solidaristic approach to trade among member states. However, the over-dependence on Venezuelan oil could mean it has an uncertain future as sustainable integration project.

Franz J. T. Lee: Oil Leaks in the Gulf of Mexico threatening all Plant, Animal and Human Life on Planet Earth


Oil Leaks in the Gulf of Mexico threatening all Plant, Animal and Human Life on Planet Earth

By Franz J. T. Lee

Millions here in Venezuela and elsewhere do not seem to be informed about the imminent danger which is facing mankind as a result of the huge oil leaks in the Gulf of Mexico. It is not a matter of closing a hole here and there.It is a matter of life or death. Below we will just indicate the real problem, warn about a possible extinction of life on planet Earth about a global agony over the next years and decades.

It is not the first time that the experimentum mundi, the experiment which Mother Nature is carrying out with herself, that planetary life is mortally being threatened by extinction. The bourgeois capitalist mode of destruction is hell bent on annihilating life, which took millions of years to come into existence, within two or three centuries. Over billions of years, many times already sparks of possible  organic life, sensorial certainty and social consciousness in a myriad of terrestrial levels, degrees and forms had been in imminent danger of partial or total extinction due to sudden natural changes in the climate and other structural processes in the solar environment as a result of cosmic causes,  tendencies and latencies. Surely at the dawn of humanity, Proconsul africanus, our ancient forefather, who had lived some 30 000 000 years ago on the 'Dark Continent' did not experience the last fatal cataclysm which destroyed over 90% of earthly life. He, and she, as intrinsic creations of Mother Nature had a simple natural death, a transmutation, which lasted hundred thousands of years,  to other spheres, other worlds. other transgalactic realities. Unfortunately, one of the successors of Ancient Man is ruling class homo homini lupus, the real discoverer of labor, of merciless economic exploitation of nature and society.

Transhistorically, in our eon, the next natural cataclysm was already on its way. However, in their insatiable hunger for profits, power, torture, terror and privileges, for 'full spectrum dominance' and 'military humanism', prematurely, as modern ruling classes, as corporate industrial elites, in total megalomania and treachery lost total control over their unilateral, unilinear production, of capitalist chaotic over-production, and thus placed mankind in complete jeopardy. Worse even, they are bringing  about the first man-made global catastrophe, which for nearly 7 000 000 000 people could terminate in post-barbarism, in a terrestrial, galactic 'death zone'.

At any event, for millions of workers, victims of an Orwellian  cruel 'mental holocaust', of 'Newspeak', ignorance is bliss, for those who still care, who still have some emancipatory sparks, some human feeling or love, it is folly, extremely dangerous, to be wise. Around the Gulf of Mexico over 15 million persons are in imminent danger, and yet they are so near to the fleeting moments of death, that they cannot see the red warning red lights from the collapsing World Market, the World Trade Organization and the ominous Twin Towers. The military 'assets' and 'rats' are already leaving the sinking Titanic in the Gulf of Mexico. The millions of poor people, descendants of African slaves, have nowhere to go, except accept the 'blood and dirt' of agonizing capital (Marx).

What happened in the region of the Gulf of Mexico millions of years ago which could occur any moment again, if not stopped according to experts immediately, within six months?

What did corporate military megalomania of an international syndicate of mega-war criminals do to Mother Earth, to her kith and kin?

Leaving all religious fairy tales or horror stories aside, according to stringent studies of world renowned prehistorians, geologists and natural scientists, on planet Earth about 251 million years ago occurred the 'Permian extinction event'. In chain reaction, a colossal undersea methane gas bubble exploded, poisoned the atmosphere and eventually killed 96% of planetary life which till then has developed across aeons.

Certainly, this event had changed the cosmic creation of life on planet Earth, what survived was just a fragment of the experiment. Who knows perhaps homo homini lupus is a child of this catastrophe.

However, not enough!

55 million years later, during the so-called 'Late Paleocene Thermal Maximum (LPTM)', which lasted about 100,000 years,
the next methane gas bubble erupted and the series of explosions destroyed once more over 90% of terrestrial life. Who knows what precious, archaic, human attributes and factors were again destroyed!  

What is the relevance of all this with reference to the current oil leaks in the Gulf of Mexico and others possibly elsewhere?

On the face value, according to the Empire of Murdoch, CNN, the reports of British Petroleum (BP) and United States President Barack Obama: the oil leak will soon be stopped and the weather will be fine again in the USA!

According to an article of Terrence Aym. "Doomsday: How BP Gulf disaster may have triggered a 'world-killing' event": 

"Those subterranean seas of methane virtually reshaped the planet when they explosively blew from deep beneath the waters of what is today called the Gulf of Mexico."
(See: http://www.helium.com/items/1882339-doomsday-how-bp-gulf-disaster-may-have-triggered-a-world-killing-event)

The fact of the matter is that another methane bubble exists undersea in the current Gulf of Mexico and in all probability naturally it would explode again in some thousands or millions of years. This time corporate imperialism in its oil 'vampirism' went too far by deep drilling for oil in a most delicate area of planet Earth.

However, even if by luck we should escape the next man-made methane explosion, then surely would await us other dangers: white phosphorous bombs, the arsenals of arms of mass destruction, electro-magnetic weapons, the HAARP type of projects, ... which can produce earthquakes, floods, tsunamis, droughts, projects which could even move planets out of their orbits, ... also the Swiss CERN Project, and in health services, the chips and nanobots in our brain tissues, all these, inter alia, to control the global wage slaves. The modern post-Orwellian Horror and Terror Cabinet of Dr. Mabuse is awaiting us too.

What is really hair-raising, most troublesome, is to know really how dangerous is the situation in the Gulf of Mexico for the whole of humanity. Because of censorship and prohibition to enter the affected areas ...  which show the real delicate situation ...  veritable news are very scanty, but here and there also the truth leaks through the perforated cordon of treachery. Certain facts cannot be hidden from the public anymore, even BP is forced to admit that they do exist.

Finally, what is the bottom line?

"BP’s Deepwater Horizon drilling operation may have triggered an irreversible, cascading geological Apocalypse that will culminate with the first mass extinction of life on Earth in many millions of years. ". (Ibid.)

What BP and Obama are not telling us is very simple: Apart from other occult factors BP drilled deeply down into a geologically very dangerous zone and probably did cause a premature release of a mammoth methane bubble.

If this should be true, then the lives of 15 million people living in that region are in immediate danger. If not, well, then we would still have a new lease of life to face the next late capitalist disaster.

According to the theories and investigations of Northwestern University's Gregory Ryskin and other scientists the methane disaster is already taking on apocalyptic shape.

If he sea bed really is ruptured and the methane gas would explode,

* The people living in the Gulf Coast will be the first exposed to poisonous, cancer causing chemical gases.

* Methane is now already streaming through the porous, rocky seabed at an accelerated rate and gushing from the borehole of the first relief well.

* The upper level strata of the ocean floor is succumbing to greater and greater pressure. That pressure is causing a huge expanse of the seabed-estimated by some as spreading over thousands of square miles surrounding the BP wellhead-to bulge.

We need not describe more .... This is the greatest danger that humanity ever has experienced till now. Because of the unilateral development of natural science and technology in the service of the maximization of capital, of destruction, of death, and because they were never developed to really save natural and human life, now with all our 'development and 'progress, we do not have the means to halt this coming disaster.

Finally, if billions of workers would not awake now, not defend life, then we would soon be star dust blowing in the galactic winds.

The Oil Leaks in the Gulf of Mexico: All Human, Animal and Plant Life in Danger of extinction


The Oil Leaks in the Gulf of Mexico: All Human, Animal and Plant Life in Danger of extinction - Capitalism as a mode of destruction is reaching its hey-day.

http://www.helium.com/items/1882339-doomsday-how-bp-gulf-disaster-may-have-triggered-a-world-killing-event

Doomsday: How BP Gulf disaster may have triggered a 'world-killing' event


by Terrence Aym


Ominous reports are leaking past the BP Gulf salvage operation news blackout that the disaster unfolding in the Gulf of Mexico may be about to reach biblical proportions.

251 million years ago a mammoth undersea methane bubble caused massive explosions, poisoned the atmosphere and destroyed more than 96 percent of all life on Earth. [1] Experts agree that what is known as the Permian extinction event was the greatest mass extinction event in the history of the world. [2]



55 million years later another methane bubble ruptured causing more mass extinctions during the Late Paleocene Thermal Maximum (LPTM).

The LPTM lasted 100,000 years. [3]

Those subterranean seas of methane virtually reshaped the planet when they explosively blew from deep beneath the waters of what is today called the Gulf of Mexico.

Now, worried scientists are increasingly concerned the same series of catastrophic events that led to worldwide death back then may be happening again-and no known technology can stop it.

The bottom line: BP’s Deepwater Horizon drilling operation may have triggered an irreversible, cascading geological Apocalypse that will culminate with the first mass extinction of life on Earth in many millions of years.

The oil giant drilled down miles into a geologically unstable region and may have set the stage for the eventual premature release of a methane mega-bubble.

Ryskin’s methane extinction theory

Northwestern University's Gregory Ryskin, a bio-chemical engineer, has a theory: The oceans periodically produce massive eruptions of explosive methane gas. He has documented the scientific evidence that such an event was directly responsible for the mass extinctions that occurred 55 million years ago. [4]

Many geologists concur: "The consequences of a methane-driven oceanic eruption for marine and terrestrial life are likely to be catastrophic. Figuratively speaking, the erupting region "boils over," ejecting a large amount of methane and other gases (e.g., CO2, H2S) into the atmosphere, and flooding large areas of land. Whereas pure methane is lighter than air, methane loaded with water droplets is much heavier, and thus spreads over the land, mixing with air in the process (and losing water as rain). The air-methane mixture is explosive at methane concentrations between 5% and 15%; as such mixtures form in different locations near the ground and are ignited by lightning, explosions and conflagrations destroy most of the terrestrial life, and also produce great amounts of smoke and of carbon dioxide..." [5]

The warning signs of an impending planetary catastrophe—of such great magnitude that the human mind has difficulty grasping it-would be the appearance of large fissures or rifts splitting open the ocean floor, a rise in the elevation of the seabed, and the massive venting of methane and other gases into the surrounding water.

Such occurrences can lead to the rupture of the methane bubble containment—it can then permit the methane to breach the subterranean depths and undergo an explosive decompression as it catapults into the Gulf waters. [6]

All three warning signs are documented to be occurring in the Gulf.

Ground zero: The Gulf Coast

The people and property located on the greater expanse of the Gulf Coast are sitting at Ground Zero. They will be the first exposed to poisonous, cancer causing chemical gases. They will be the ones that initially experience the full fury of a methane bubble exploding from the ruptured seabed.

The media has been kept away from the emergency salvage measures being taken to forestall the biggest catastrophe in human history. The federal government has warned them away from the epicenter of operations with the threat of a $40,000 fine for each infraction and the possibility of felony arrests.

Why is the press being kept away? Word is that the disaster is escalating.

Cracks and bulges

Methane is now streaming through the porous, rocky seabed at an accelerated rate and gushing from the borehole of the first relief well. The EPA is on record that Rig #1 is releasing methane, benzene, hydrogen sulfide and other toxic gases. Workers there now wear advanced protection including state-of-the-art, military-issued gas masks.

Reports, filtering through from oceanologists and salvage workers in the region, state that the upper level strata of the ocean floor is succumbing to greater and greater pressure. That pressure is causing a huge expanse of the seabed-estimated by some as spreading over thousands of square miles surrounding the BP wellhead-to bulge. Some claim the seabed in the region has risen an astounding 30 feet.

The fractured BP wellhead, site of the former Deepwater Horizon, has become the epicenter of frenetic attempts to quell the monstrous flow of methane.

The subterranean methane is pressurized at 100,000 pounds psi. According to Matt Simmons, an oil industry expert, the methane pressure at the wellhead has now skyrocketed to a terrifying 40,000 pounds psi.

Another well-respected expert, Dr. John Kessler of Texas A&M University has calculated that the ruptured well is spewing 60 percent oil and 40 percent methane. The normal methane amount that escapes from a compromised well is about 5 percent.

More evidence? A huge gash on the ocean floor—like a ragged wound hundreds of feet long—has been reported by the NOAA research ship, Thomas Jefferson. Before the curtain of the government enforced news blackout again descended abruptly, scientists aboard the ship voiced their concerns that the widening rift may go down miles into the earth.

That gash too is hemorrhaging oil and methane. It’s 10 miles away from the BP epicenter. Other, new fissures, have been spotted as far as 30 miles distant.

Measurements of the multiple oil plumes now appearing miles from the wellhead indicate that as much as a total of 124,000 barrels of oil are erupting into the Gulf waters daily-that’s about 5,208,000 gallons of oil per day.

Most disturbing of all: Methane levels in the water are now calculated as being almost one million times higher than normal. [7]

Mass death on the water

If the methane bubble—a bubble that could be as big as 20 miles wide—erupts with titanic force from the seabed into the Gulf, every ship, drilling rig and structure within the region of the bubble will immediately sink. All the workers, engineers, Coast Guard personnel and marine biologists participating in the salvage operation will die instantly.

Next, the ocean bottom will collapse, instantaneously displacing up to a trillion cubic feet of water or more and creating a towering supersonic tsunami annihilating everything along the coast and well inland. Like a thermonuclear blast, a high pressure atmospheric wave could precede the tidal wave flattening everything in its path before the water arrives.

When the roaring tsunami does arrive it will scrub away all that is left.

A chemical cocktail of poisons

Some environmentalist experts are calling what’s pouring into the land, sea and air from the seabed breach ’a chemical cocktail of poisons.’

Areas of dead zones devoid of oxygen are driving species of fish into foreign waters, killing plankton and other tiny sea life that are the foundation for the entire food chain, and polluting the air with cancer-causing chemicals and poisonous rainfalls.

A report from one observer in South Carolina documents oily residue left behind after a recent thunderstorm. And before the news blackout fully descended the EPA released data that benzene levels in New Orleans had rocketed to 3,000 parts per billion.

Benzene is extremely toxic and even short term exposure can cause agonizing death from cancerous lesions years later.

The people of Louisiana have been exposed for more than two months—and the benzene levels may be much higher now. The EPA measurement was taken in early May. [8]

Doomsday

While some say it can’t happen because the bulk of the methane is frozen into crystalline form, others point out that the underground methane sea is gradually melting from the nearby surging oil that’s estimated to be as hot as 500 degrees Fahrenheit.

Most experts in the know, however, agree that if the world-changing event does occur it will happen suddenly and within the next 6 months.

So, if events go against Mankind and the bubble bursts in the coming months, Gregory Ryskin may become one of the most famous people in the world. Of course, he won't have long to enjoy his new found fame because very shortly after the methane eruption civilization will collapse.

Perhaps if humanity is very, very lucky, some may find a way to avoid the mass extinction that follows and carry on the human race.

Perhaps.

Why BP is Readying a 'Super Weapon' to Avert Escalating Gulf Nightmare


While the plan would admittedly only be executed if a worst case scenario seemed imminent, some geo-chemists have expressed concerns that detonating a nuke in the Gulf might ignite the methane.
(CHICAGO) - In a desperate attempt to stop a huge area of the Gulf ocean floor from possibly rupturing due to subterranean methane gas (leading to a calamity no human has ever seen) BP has ripped a page from science fiction books.
The giant oil company is now quietly preparing to test a small nuclear device in a frenzied rush against time to quell a cascading catastrophe. If successful they will have the capability to detonate a controlled fusion generated pulse.
While the world watches BP's attempt to contain the oil gusher at the former Deepwater Horizon site, company officials have given the green light on an astounding plan to use what is known as a nuclear EPFCG charge if all else fails.
Sea floor compromised
Reports still indicate that methane is flooding the Gulf waters at a rate one million times more than normal, and the NOAA research vessel, Thomas Jefferson has reported spotting new fissures. [1]
Last week the science ship stunned some reporters with the revelation that the oceanographic team had discovered and measured a rift in the ocean floor miles from the BP wellhead. The rift was reported to be more than 100 feet long and widening. Oil and methane continues to plume from that rift.
BP has also admitted damage beneath the sea floor. [2]
The Omega plan
Most enterprises—whether business, government, or exploration—have a Plan B to fall back on. To date, BP has attempted Plans B through N. Yet it is the last ditch plan-the Omega plan-that hold the greatest risk. Yet that plan may be the final hope to stop what some insiders now consider a catastrophe that could culminate with a world-killing mass extinction event that modern civilization could not survive.
At a super-secret security base-CFB Suffield-located in southern Alberta, Canada, area reports indicate that high level engineers, physicists and military scientists are feverishly working to complete an ‘explosively pumped flux compression generator’ (EPFCG).
According to published scientific papers [see sources below] an EPFCG generator can be powered by a very small, controlled fusion explosion-in other words, a tiny nuclear bomb.
Why the UK based BP has set up operations at CFB-Suffield is obvious: The company already runs three oil rigs on the base, have worked with Canada’s chemical and biological efforts on and off for almost 40 years, and have strong ties to the Commonwealth’s infrastructure.
The CFB Base, which incorporates DRDC Suffield, is one of research six Canadian military facilities and critical to the security of the country. DRDC Suffield is the lead facility for all of Canada’s engineering and weapons systems R&D.
The EPFCG—a Star Wars super weapon
A device that can only be used once, the EPFCG generates a high power electromagnetic pulse. It achieves this by using a powerful explosive, preferably nuclear. Advanced, nuclear driven EPFCGs can instantaneously create up to billions of amperes and hundreds of terawatts. Such raw power exceeds lighting bolts by huge orders of magnitude.
The pulse can be shaped and directed and used to knock out electronics-or more importantly in this case—to fuse virtually any material—including crumbling rock strata deep under the sea. The fantastically energized pulse can also compress objects to very high pressures and densities. [3]
According to engineers familiar with the technology, the devices can generate plasma arcs hotter than the surface of the sun that will melt and fuse materials in nanoseconds.
A special security force manned by members of AEGIS, a UK based paramilitary security corporation similar to the old US Blackwater Security company, is reported to have cordoned off the base. The security lid has clamped down hard while the engineers and scientists work with the nuclear materials.
BP’s secret Omega Plan kicked off in earnest on July 7th, 2010. According to sources on the base the British Geological Survey (BGS), the United States Geological Survey (USGS), BP and Halliburton have set up a test site at one of the drill rigs.
While the plan would admittedly only be executed if a worst case scenario seemed imminent, some geo-chemists have expressed concerns that detonating an EPFCG in the Gulf might ignite the methane.
Meanwhile the preparations for the test continue in Canada.

NATO Orders Canadian Troops To US As ‘Super Weapon’ Prepared To End Gulf Oil Spill
By: Sorcha Faal, and as reported to her Western Subscribers


New reports circulating in the Kremlin today prepared for Prime Minister Putin by the foreign military intelligence directorate (GRU) state that NATO’s Chairman of the Military Committee Admiral Giampaolo Di Paola has ordered  2,400 Canadian Military Forces to prepare for deployment in the United States oil stricken Gulf Coast region.
As we had previously reported on in our July 4th report “NATO Orders All “Critical Assets” Moved 100 Miles Inland From Gulf Oil Spill Region”, Admiral Di Paola has taken defacto control from President Obama over this historic catastrophe over fears the American leader and his elite allies were using this disaster to reap untold billions in profits, and we had, likewise, reported on in our June 16th report “Obama To Earn Nearly $85 Million From Gulf Oil Disaster”.
Admiral Di Paola’s ordered movement of these Canadian Military Forces follows his ordering of 7,000 US Marines to the Central American Nation of Costa Rica so as to have a better positioning of troops on both sides of the Gulf of Mexico should further disasters occur, and as we had also previously reported on in our July 8th report “NATO Orders 7,000 US Marines To Costa Rica As Gulf Oil Disaster Quake Fears Grow”.
These latest moves by NATO of its forces in response to this catastrophe are occurring at the same time that BP is announcing it has successfully attached a new cap on their leaking deepwater oil well and is preparing to test it in what it says is an effort that will “effectively” shut it.
These reports, however, state that BP’s new capping of this well, and if successful, would stem very little of the oil and methane gas escaping into the Gulf and appears designed as a “gimmick” to fool the American public and keep their attention diverted from the actual location of this spill which is coming from the fractured seafloor itself, and as we had previously reported on in our June 10th report “Scientists Warn Gulf Of Mexico Sea Floor Fractured “Beyond Repair”.
To BP’s truer plan to stop this catastrophe through the use of a ‘Super Weapon’ we can read as reported by the Salem News Service, and which, in part, says:
Not being realized by the American public about this massive oil leak is that when this well exploded it destroyed all of the piping leaving nothing for BP to seal, and as reluctantly admitted this past Friday by US Coast Guard Admiral (Ret.) Thad Allen who was appointed by Obama as the National Incident Commander for this disaster.
The effects upon the Gulf of Mexico from the unstrained release of oil and methane gas, as well as the toxic dispersant being used by BP, can only be described in the most apocalyptic terms after US scientists reported this week that it is becoming what they term a “Dead Zone” killing everything it touches not able to flee.
Reports from this region are also painting a grim picture of the effects of this spill upon Gulf regions human population, especially those American workers hired by BP to cleanup oil stained beaches and marsh lands exposed to the dispersement chemical 2-butoxyethanol that has been detected at levels up to 10 parts per million (ppm) in more than 20 percent of offshore responders and 15 percent of those near shore.
And as concerns grow over the potentially catastrophic death toll that could arise from this disaster, new reports from the US are stating that within the past 72 hours American Military forces have begun moving into the affected areas and setting up roadblocks and terrifying the people who live there.
Unfortunately for the American people they have not been allowed to know the full scale of this catastrophe due to their government suppressing the news about what has been happening by barring reporters from getting near the spill or the affected beaches.  So enraged were the US media about this ban on reporting it caused Admiral (Ret.) Allen to rescind it yesterday.
But to the worst potential outcome of this disaster we note a warning being sounded by a bio-chemical engineer named Gregory Ryskin from the United States’ Northwestern University's who states that BP’s Deepwater Horizon drilling operation may have triggered an irreversible, cascading geological apocalypse that will culminate with the first mass extinction of life on Earth in many millions of years.
According to Ryskin, the oil giant BP drilled down miles into a geologically unstable region and may have set the stage for the eventual premature release of a methane mega-bubble that has worried scientists due to their concern that the same series of catastrophic events that led to Worldwide death in the past may be happening again-and no known technology can stop it.
Important to note in all of these events is this disaster being used by  powerful elite forces to prepare the American people for a World they no nothing about but will, beyond all doubt, see them reduced to nothing more than debt-slaves as the rich and powerful continue their raping of the US economy and the destruction of their environment.
One surely wonders these days when these people will ever awaken from their long slumber to realize that their once sought after “American Dream” has turned into an “American Nightmare”, all occurring as these same people neglected to remember one of the most time-honored and fundamental facts of human existence, that the future for our children rests in what we do today, and, perhaps, best articulated by the great American Revolutionary War Patriot Thomas Paine who said, “If there must be trouble, let it be in my day, that my child may have peace.”
Today in a very troubled America her children call out for that peace, one can only hope that their parents are listening.

¿Tenemos realmente una “Crisis Energética Mundial? ¿Hay una conexión histórica

global entre esta “crisis” y los dramáticos eventos sociales en Venezuela? y
¿por qué América Latina es una bomba de tiempo revolucionaria?



Ya en junio 12 del 2002, en un articulo titulado

"La Crisis Energética Innecesaria: Cómo Resolverla Rápidamente", Thomas E.
Bearden, (...) el director de la asociación de distinguidos científicos
(norte)americanos (ADAS) y miembro de la fundación Alpha del Instituto para
Estudios Avanzados (AIAS), explicó la quintaesencia energética de la recesión,
depresión y crisis mundial actual.

Al fin y al cabo, hay que ver los problemas actuales de Venezuela, las guerras
de Afganistán e Irak, las políticas imperialistas de Rusia frente a los pueblos
de los Balcanes, los roles contrarrevolucionarios de Israel en el Medio-Oriente
y de Sudáfrica en el continente africano, dentro del contexto de esta “crisis”.


Primeramente, un cuidadoso análisis histórico-político-económico de los procesos
revolucionarios de la acumulación de capital a escala mundial y de los
diferentes modos de producción en el planeta, revelaran que los bien conocidos
cambios dramáticos, dialécticos e intrasistémicos que han ocurrido, involucran
básicamente las transformaciones radicales de energía y de fuentes y recursos
tecnológicos.

Esto vale para todo proceso productivo, desde el hacha de piedra hasta la
computadora, desde el uso de la fuerza del hombre hasta la del caballo, hasta
los “extraterrestres” del Pentágono, hasta los “platillos voladores”
estadounidenses, saliendo de Los Alamos, propulsados por la energía y tecnología
de Tesla, ya conocidos y probablemente parcialmente empleados desde los fines
del siglo 19.

Históricamente, y como parte intrínseca del desarrollo igual, desigual y
combinado, el trabajo de esclavos chocó con el trabajo manual agrícola, el
último sobrevivió y luego – como resultado de la “Emancipación de los Esclavos”
y la “Revolución Industrial” – ambos fueron predominantemente reemplazados por
la producción industrial, por el trabajo moderno de fábrica. <
style="font-weight: bold;">

La industria textilera británica necesitaba lana, así que las ovejas obligaban a
los campesinos a abandonar sus tierras ancestrales, la producción de alimentos
disminuyó y leyes para vagos y maleantes eliminaron a los siervos desempleados,
es decir, destruyeron progresivamente los obsoletos recursos energéticos
agrícolas.
Hoy en día, como resultado de una “Revolución Global”, 6 billones de
trabajadores manuales industriales y agrícolas ya obsoletos, como fuerzas
productivas, como fuerzas energéticas, continuamente son eliminados del mercado
global. El llamado “trabajo intelectual”, la “propiedad intelectual”, el
“capital humano” o los “recursos globales sociales y naturales de la humanidad”
– por ejemplo la Amazonía – no sólo introducen el actual estado fascista de un
modo de destrucción global, sino también de un modo pos-productivo de
creatividad y creación aún posible, y por eso alimentan también las fuentes y
los recursos energéticos alternativos ya existentes, que podrían generar
posibilidades trans-revolucionarias y realidades emancipatorias. <
style="font-weight: bold;">

Esto es el fondo transhistórico en el cual hay que ubicar y ver la Revolución
Bolivariana, como parte de la punta del iceberg emancipatorio creativo – para
ella, es decir para los millones de pobres de América Latina, ser otra cosa,
ciertamente significaría regresión, estancamiento, vegetación, reforma y
auto-aniquilación.

Venezuela, como uno de los proveedores principales de los ya obsoletos recursos
energéticos a “largo plazo” que son el petróleo y el gas, se ve afectado
directamente por las “nuevas guerras” actuales, por el “modo mundial de
destrucción”; ahora, vamos a resumir lo que un experto en la materia, Thomas
Bearden advirtió, es decir, hasta dónde la “crisis energética” global afecta a
Venezuela y a América Latina, y el por qué de los permanentes ataques feroces,
globales y globalizados contra la Revolución Bolivariana. < style="font-weight:
bold;">

Ya en el año 2000, ¿qué fue lo que Bearden nos dijo respecto a la actual “crisis
energética mundial”?

“La crisis energética mundial ahora está motivando las economías de las
naciones. Actualmente existe una demanda creciente a nivel mundial por energía
eléctrica y transporte, la cual depende mucho de los combustibles fósiles,
especialmente del petróleo o sus derivados. Se espera que la resultante demanda
para el petróleo incrementa año tras año. Recientes aumentos agudos en algunas
áreas metropolitanas estadounidenses ya incluyeron la gasolina a un precio de
$2.50 por galón. Al mismo tiempo parece, que la disponibilidad mundial de
petróleo quizás tenía un máximo al comienzo del 2000, si uno toma en
consideración la supuesta inflación de reservas petroleras árabes reportadas.
Desde ahora parece que la disponibilidad de petróleo caerá continuamente,
primero lentamente pero después a paso más rápido.”

En cuanto a las “aproximadamente 160 naciones”, principalmente de Sudamérica,
Africa y Asia, que existen fuera de los grandes países metropolitanos, explicaba
su futuro inmediato:

“El traslado de la fabricación y la producción a muchas de estas naciones es un
traslado a naciones que en esencia son naciones de “trabajo de esclavos”, donde
los trabajadores tienen pocos o ningunos beneficios sociales, donde reciben
sueldos extremadamente bajos, donde trabajan horas largas y no tienen sindicatos
o derechos laborales. Los políticos regionales suelen ser fácilmente
corrompibles así que tampoco hay controles eficaces por parte de los gobiernos.
Esto ha resultado en un regreso de facto al capitalismo feudalista de una era
anterior, cuando se podían exprimir enormes ganancias a espaldas de los
trabajadores empobrecidos y los cheques y balances de los gobiernos eran nulos.”


Bearden pronosticó minuciosamente el colapso actual de la economía global: <
style="font-weight: bold;">

“Bruscamente, pronosticamos esos factores – y otros ( ) no mencionados – que
están convergiendo a un colapso catastrófico de la economía mundial dentro de
aproximadamente 8 años. Como se está acercando el colapso de las economías
occidentales, se puede esperar una presión catastrófica sobre las 160 naciones
en desarrollo en la medida que las naciones desarrolladas se verán obligadas de
reducir dramáticamente sus pedidos.”

Por lo tanto ¿Cómo se encajan en este cuadro repugnante acciones tan
desesperadas como la de volar a las “Torres Gemelas” y la declaración de las
“Nuevas Guerras” contra Afganistán e Irak, incluyendo el sabotaje petrolero en
Venezuela? y ¿Quienes más son más desesperados? Ciertamente no son Corea del
Norte o Irán, sino en primer lugar la Administración de los EE.UU., con su cara
fascista Bush-Kerry, América Corporativa, pero también la “oposición en
Venezuela”, Carter, Gaviria y Gustavo Cisneros.

“La historia comprueba que naciones desesperadas toman acciones desesperadas.
Antes del colapso económico final, la presión sobre las naciones habrá aumentado
la intensidad y la cantidad de sus conflictos hasta un punto donde los arsenales
de las armas de destrucción masivas, que unas 25 naciones actualmente poseen,
van a ser empleados casi con seguridad absoluta. Como ejemplo nos imaginamos una
Corea del Norte muerta de hambre ( ), lanzando armas nucleares sobre Japón y
Corea del Sur, incluyendo fuerzas militares estadounidenses estacionados allí,
en una respuesta espasmódica y suicida.”

Más adelante explicó las razones capitalistas, corporativas y energéticas de la
instalación del actual “Cuarto Imperio”, y por qué los asuntos en juego son tan
urgentes para la sobrevivencia del actual “orden mundial” y para la “paz
mundial”. En otras palabras, indicó, por qué Irak y Afganistán necesitan “cambio
de régimen”, por qué Irán y Venezuela son los próximos en la lista, y por qué la
“concepción de la democracia” del Presidente Chávez está “anticuada”. <
style="font-weight: bold;">

“El gran Armageddon resultante destruirá la civilización como la conocemos, y
quizás una gran parte de la biosfera, por lo menos para muchas décadas. Mi
estimación personal es, que aproximadamente al comienzo de 2007, al curso
energético actual, vamos a haber alcanzado una probabilidad de 80% de este
escenario de la “destrucción final de la civilización misma” que puede ocurrir
en cualquier momento, lentamente aumentándose la probabilidad con el paso del
tiempo. Uno puede discutir sobre el tiempo exacto, mover las fechas por un año o
dos, pero la premisa básica y el marco general del tiempo quedan. No sólo
estamos enfrentando una crisis económica mundial sino también una crisis de
destrucción mundial.”

Bien, hemos pasado el año crítico de 2003 y nos espera lo siguiente: <
style="font-weight: bold;">

“La fecha del (año) 2003 parece ser el “punto crítico del no regreso” para la
supervivencia de la civilización como la hemos conocido. Llegando a este punto,
digamos en el 2005, no resolverá la crisis a tiempo, y el colapso de la economía
mundial igual que la destrucción de la civilización y la biosfera aún ocurrirán
casi con seguridad, incluso con las soluciones en mano. ...Esta propia amenaza
se está tejiendo temerosamente en nuestro futuro cercano, en gran parte gracias
a las crecientes e insoportables presiones que los precios del petróleo
causaron. Entonces, dentro de aproximadamente 7 años desde ahora, entraremos al
periodo de la amenaza de un Armageddon Final, salvo si hacemos algo muy, muy
rápido ahora, para resolver la ‘crisis actual de la energía eléctrica
proveniente del petróleo’ de una vez por todas”.

Claro que Thomas Bearden no es un socialista, sólo quiere lo mejor para la
América Corporativa. Así que, según él, ¿qué se requiere para resolver el
problema? Venezuela, escuche cuidadosamente lo que dijo: < style="font-weight:
bold;">

“Para evitar el inminente colapso de la economía mundial y/o la destrucción de
la civilización y de la biosfera, tenemos que sustituir suficiente de la
“energía eléctrica proveniente del petróleo”, principal causante de la crisis a
gran velocidad, y simultáneamente sustituir una parte significante del factor
“transporte a base de productos petroleros” también. ...En nombre de toda la
humanidad, ¡vamos a empezar! Si no, al finalizar esta primera década del nuevo
milenio no va a quedar mucho de la humanidad para ver la segunda.” <
style="font-weight: bold;">

Otras soluciones propuestas por Bearden se pueden leer en el documento
mencionado antes, sin embargo, según él, ya es demasiado tarde. No se habían
tomado verdaderas medidas para evitar la catástrofe global. <
style="font-weight: bold;">

De todos modos, la lutta continua, pero es importante de enfocar el verdadero
contexto histórico de la actual Revolución Bolivariana; ciertamente la solución
de los problemas no se encuentra ni en “fuera Chávez”, ni en “fuera la
oposición”.

Es precisamente esta situación global que ha producido la Revolución
Bolivariana, es su alma mater, su matriz emancipatoria. Tenemos que resolver
nuestros problemas inmediatos de corto plazo, pero hasta esos son dictados por
los procesos y desarrollos transhistóricos de largo plazo. Tenemos que armarnos
prácticamente, militarmente, teóricamente, filosóficamente y creativamente, es
decir, en total, tenemos que entrar en los horizontes de las esferas invisibles,
invencibles, invulnerables y emancipatorias.

Por ahora, definitivamente la Revolución Bolivariana es un excelente y notable
paradigma emancipatorio: ¡Hasta la Victoria Siempre! ¡A Paso de Vencedores!
