Illuminatus Trilogy! and Annonymous hacking culture

This article from Wired has produced a more condensed article (that follows)including a fantastic quote about Illuminatus Trilogy! by Shea and Wilson, linking the History of hacker culture directly to the novels, and so further back, deeper into the sub-history of dada, surrealism, satire. I would argue this reaches right back to the 1580's and Giordano Bruno's 'pantheism', and can be tracked by simply following the route Robert Anton Wilson defined for us: Bruno, Giambattista Vico, Friederich Nietzsche, Ernest Fenollosa, William Butler Yeates, Ezra Pound, James Joyce, Alfred Korzybski, Buckminster Fuller, Claude Shannon, Norbert Weiner, Marshal McLuhan, and Orson Welles.

 

Understanding Anonymous: The Culture Of Lulz

from the it's-not-an-organization dept

We've written a number of times about the not-really-a-group Anonymous, and just how little those who position themselves "against" Anonyomous understand what it is they're fighting against. But even for those who are "of internet culture," explaining just what Anonymous really is certainly can be difficult. Either you live it and you get it, or you don't. That doesn't mean that everyone who "gets" Anonymous agrees with Anonymous. Hell, even Anonymous doesn't agree with Anonymous much of the time -- which is part of the point. But for those who are used to arguing against a group or those with an established position, the entire concept of Anonymous is completely alien.

Quinn Norton is putting together what looks to be a brilliant exploration of Anonymous and related efforts. The initial piece is the best I've seen to date in encapsulating what Anonymous is. The key point? It’s a culture. And, it's a culture with a long heritage of similar efforts that many people didn't get at the time, but there's definitely a (rather non-linear, of course) relationship:
The birthplace of Anonymous is a website called 4chan founded in 2003, that developed an “anything goes” random section known as the /b/ board. 4chan itself comes from a Japanese-language predecessor called 2chan, founded in 2001. Before that, the lulz and hacker pranking was alive and well in old-school IRC chat rooms, EFnet, and the 1990s hacker scene.

But if you’re going back that far, add as influences Mondo 2000, and publications like RE/Search, and a billion shitty zines that were dead by 1996. But those all came from something, too.

Hacker culture, and almost all of computer culture back in the day is shot through with the Discordian edge of 1960/1970s counter-culture and Robert Anton Wilson and Robert Shea’s Illuminatus. So from there it’s the yippies, Andy Kaufmann, and the Situationists we need to first comprehend. Or do we head back to early 20th century absurdists of Dada? Or maybe we venture all the way to that olde booke of epic trolling lulze, Tristram Shandy?

We’re all the way to 1759 now.

Perhaps this means the 1960s Discordians are right, and there’s a Ha Ha Only Serious giggle that is cosmic in nature. That there is a part of reality, a force of physics, that is actually a Fundamental Sense of Humor. But the gravity we deal with can only be explained to an even larger amount of Dark Humor, woven into the fabric of the universe.
Of course, those who don't get Anonymous still won't get Anonymous after this article. In fact, they're likely to be more confused, or more sure than ever that it's "just a bunch of bratty kids" or something along those lines. And thinking that works exactly to Anonymous' favor, which is part of the joke, in which everyone is the punchline.

Mark Pesce and the 'Nextbillionseconds'


I view Mark's latest explorations and insight as possibly the greatest collection of information for the tribe. The full Global Village.

Please take a look and read for yourself. Mark has a kind of futurism that is firmly rooted in scientific and mathematical data, yet has the excitment and imagination you might expect from a science fistion writer. Mark seems to have mapped a number of alternative paths that I see as illuminating the kind of questions we may need to meditate upon and ACT? as we move into 2012.

NAUGHTIES DECADE 2001-2011

DECADE 2001-2011


INTRODUCTION


Hi I finally got around to posting this, it's been hanging around for a while. I hope you'll forgive my errors, any feedback will be well received.

So friends...which events seem important to you? Which would you choose to define any given period of time? How do you make sense of them, what conditions nurtured them, which human interventions and which natural disasters led to the events you pick?

If we are to make sense and meaning of history, and sanity--a risky endeavour in these times of global Internet but one which any poet worth the name might pursue--then a 'poem including history' of the last decade seems a good place to start to me. (after writing this introduction I learned that Mark Zukenburg and facebook plan to release a ‘timeline' application that allows for a similar chronological study of events. However History also moves in cycles, and non-chronological spirals, it is of my opinion.

The launch of Wikipedia in February of 2001 has impacted this writing a great deal due to the simple list of some events deemed worthy of inclusion by the Wikipedia commons group, that are made available for all to see and make sense of at your own risk. The risk seems to me to be somewhat reduced when attention is paid to the subjective nature of perception, and to methods such as ‘operational language used by some-but-not-all scientists and ‘E-prime’ and its variants, used by some-but-not-all linguists.

When put Into chronological order it becomes increasingly difficult for me to avoid drawing conclusions based on the ordering, one thing leads to another, or so it seems to a linear oriented mind set. The question remains: which ‘events’ should become pivotal ones and which shall be relegated to the footnotes or relegated all together? How did the author or protagonist come to choose such events based on which values and principle, what ordering system, what right knowledge? How many are justified by later events and how many need revision, considering, let’s say; the Wikileaks exposures of the period 2007-2010, or the News Corp. phone hacking racket?

Maybe you'll have a crack at this process, outside of facebook, of putting the last ten years (or any period of time) into textual form. Music, painting, dance, sculpture, textiles and other art based activities also help communicate this information.

In mixing private events with those events deemed as Historical in the broader sense, I hope to take the edge off of history a little bit, I mean to say balance what we perceive as ‘historical’ with our personal infinite flux of perception—at the moment these events are perceived to be taking place. Unless you happen to be fortunate and in the physical location of such an ‘historical event’ then rather you may not view it as ‘historical’ at all, by your own standards, yet another fleeting moment on planet earth.

The questions: where were you, what were you doing and why were you doing it?, introduces ‘subjective context’ into the thinking process encircling the question of History. I repeat, I have taken great liberty through a poetic licence to inject my own value system upon the last ten years. Forgive my ego-centric perception and decadence, I will be editing and updating this work towards 2012, keep in touch friends, love--steve.

Race Riots and Revolution in the UK

Hi,

The riots in the UK earlier this month (aug. 6-10, 2011) have provoked a number of textual reactions and experiments from me that I present here in a mish-mash-up style. Typically I have the beginnings of lots of different ideas, poems, screenplays, on-going research and rants. I might need some help editing some of this stuff.

I decided that Race Riots and Revolution in the UK could be a title theme that runs through these writings. Please enjoy, share and feedback. And remember to try and think happy thoughts as ften as possible. Please, thankyou.

QUESTION CRIME?

Bits and thoughts like branches and leaves budding
earth seasons seem to bring politcal and ecological changes,
the city map of life inside a city map world ripped by a rat.

Talkers gasping for fresh air, to make sense of the senses
to pit poverty of imagination against scandalous expenses
to lay seeds, to plough the fields and jump fences

I am sucked into the babble slang and the prattle
what's in a name, what's in a battle
who traded pigs for whiggs, and precious coin for cattle?

The scrupulus meanness of money magic
the comedy in a staged collapse, tree's felled: tragic
politicians need MDMA for empathy and to help fight
capitalist cancer outbrake.

To gamble our land's life support on the mad-Bull market
gives off a reckless and putrid stench of rotting corpses
cannibals of europe are eating their children,
 
Each human mind encompasses the whole universe
the whole multiverse contained inside a criminal thug?
please, we are all interacting nervous systems beyond classification.

--Steve 'fly' Pratt 23.

HOW TO LOVE A HOODY?

What does it take to love a hoody?
never mind hug a hoody love a hoody,
tuff love buddy,
a flood of reasons to show empathy
as some wise man once said 'love thy enemy'
so... how might we love a hoody

What's inside that hood
Who's under the street monkhood
What creature lurks beneath the Addidas and the Nike garnments
What feet creep across broken glass in Fila boots
what's inside the head wrapped in Burberry
all day crime think? think again, 

These are human beings just like you,
criminality seems a pretty flimsy stick these days
as one man goes down for knickin' a shirt
another walks, like Tony Blair, what is fair?
To me Tony is no better than a hoody,
Gangster activity, lack of insight and foresight,
disrespect, bad judgement, personal benefit
at the scandalous expense of others.
 
Criminal intelligence is intelligence
none-the-less.

a gang is a group or slang for a coup
on the sinister crime-minister's 'gang-think'
David Starkey scans the culture darkly, 

dimly, shortsightedly.

--Steve 'fly' Pratt 23.

 QUESTIONS WE MIGHT ASK AGAIN


1. The Police officer who fired the shot that Killed Mark Duggan, his profile? 



2. Who was in Charge at Tottenham Police station Aug. 6th, who he, or she?
 

3. Why were the family members and relatives not satisfied with police feedback?
 

4. Who started the rumor that a 16 year old girl had been attacked by Police?
 

5. What double standards do you see in the Police threatening to pursue those who twitted and messaged 'inaccurate and inflammatory' regarding the riots? (please read Dailymail articles)
 

6. How can be trust our communications partners not to give over our information services to the Police? (see blackberry and RIM: research in motion)
 

7. Why did the Police stay away from the Tottenham Hale retail park that was open to petty looters until dawn?  and what of other reports of no police responses? were they caught off-guard by a superior hive intelligence, told to step down, simply too busy?
 

8. How many different reasons can you give for the disturbances, in approx. order of probability: e.g: 1. shooting of Mark Duggan. 2. lack of initial Police response. 3. General ignorance to the death of Smiley Culture in April 2011. 4. Government cuts to social services. 5.
 

9.What difference do you see between the terms 'rioter and looter': 'fighter and thief'
 

10. Super cop Willy Bratton is the chairman of Kroll! (Please research Kroll).
 

11. What differences do you perceive between vigilantism and the Police?
 

12. How many examples can you think of to deserve jail for political crime ministers?

BROKEN SCENES OF PAINTINGS PT. 1 

[INT]

"…broken glass everywhere, cardboard and paper fillings all over the shop and outside the shop, kids running with new shit, brand new off the shop front, god bless em', little devils, god dammed thieves and robbers, petty criminals, arsonists, smasher uppers, not nuclear technicians or strategic operations warfare officers, live thugs, unpredictable and ready to go off at any time, like a bomb, the sound of a detonator ticking in the background, oh the youth of today."



"The running riots on the stock market, the rampant flow of dribbling saber toother tigers, giant red lion's and grey wolves, pink Panda's and illuminated Eagle's, all picking and pecking at the remains of the global financial system, in tatters on the floor, shredded like confetti, based on 'zero', nothing more to give never had anything to save, money equals value equals probablistic fuctions beyond human interventions."

"What?'

"Beyond any human interventions, I mean the machine intelligence has got us by the knackers man, its working us, pounding and pumping these challenges into our path, the motherfucking super gangster god shit is here right now, disturbing the peace, but there is some interference in the plan, the psychic cop's have hit a fire wall, something seems to scramble every message, something with insight and increased reverse foresight seems to me to have intervened."






"come on..."


"An intelligent futurist time traveller, in human form, myself. How about it, and why not, so prove me wrong, how am I not a time traveller? have you read the latest in the popular scientific journals, never mind the more occult publications. We are somewhat here, at the junction, at a junction, where who knows what will happen, who knows? but a mighty bunch of things have come together to shine through the dark shadows of the monster greed heads. Ignore them, move along now, upwards and onwards.

‘Oh yeah’

SCI-FI FUTURE

"Most journalists from the gov/corp. media show an equal contempt to people, property and civility than any shop-lifter, they only difference is they fan the flames using dogmatic language, rather than actions resulting from dogma.

"Responsibility, discipline, respect for authority. Please look to the double standards in 1. Illegal invasion of Iraq and Afghanistan. 2. M.P's expenses scandal. 3. The Police/Newscorp. Phone hacking scandal. 4. International arms dealing. 5. The war on some drugs. 6. The war on some terror. 

"I think that it's not by using 'tough love' or by introducing 'harsh punishments' or by name calling and cultural branding that British youth and 'youth worldwide' will wake up to their sense of self-awareness and of community. The medieval psychology behind capital punishment and incarceration, public humiliation and directed fear are only one old ragged way of 'turning people around' and teaching them the differences between wrong and right.

"There are other methods that do not simply use a mixture of treats and punishments depending on their right or wrong actions, usually deemed right or wrong by a government implemented value system, or a religiously implemented value system. See the history of worldwide Church and State rules on behavior, speech, buying and selling, spying, dying and warfare and how they upheld those rules using various forms of what might best be described as Black Magic and curses.

"What future?

"I'd say a Science Fiction future--depending on what kind of science fiction you interact with? i.e a pretty unimaginable future to all but a few Science Fiction writers. The Gov. and news will continue falling further and further behind the cutting chaotic edge of being awake.

"What can we do about it?

"Well, I would prescribe a mystical school where the art of meta-programing can be shown to allow for any and all individuals to be whatever they want to be this time around by tuning on the human nervous system. Practical self help techniques in a kind of new Hogwarts learning fashion...not punishment, humiliation and so called 'tough love'. That's my science fiction future.

--Steve 'fly' Pratt 23.


Some Quotes:

"Instead of analyzing societies solely in terms of classes, Bourdieu uses the concept of field: a structured social space with its own rules, schemes of domination, legitimate opinions and so on. Fields are relatively autonomous from the wider social structure (or space, in his terminology), in which people relate and struggle through a complex of connected social relations (both direct and indirect). Among the main fields in modern societies, Bourdieu cited the arts, education, politics, law and economy.--http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pierre_Bourdieu
"They have no sense of responsibility for themselves, far less towards others, and look to no future beyond the next meal, sexual encounter or TV football game.--Max Hastings, Daily Mail.  (on looters and IMHO politicians)


'Mirror in De Buurvrouw' by CHU

My good friend CHU came to Amsterdam and decorated the wall of a local bar very close to Dam square in the center, called De Buurvrouw. The decorations work on many levels and from many different perspectives, not least the name 'Mirror in De Buurvrouw' being a riff on the lyric and title of the Ska revival tune by The Beat (Mirror in the Bathroom).

Please go to the link and view the post images and video. Then have a look around the website and take in the vast amount of visual eye candy by master CHU

Seaflow and me against the LFAS navy

During my time living in America I frequented a number of meetings with the 'marine mamal protection agency' called seaflow based in Marine county, California. I enjoyed listening to the presentations, in particular the bioacoustician 'Michael stocker' who touched on some areas of biology and science first bought to my attention by Dr. John Lilly M.D.

As both a swimmer and a musician I have always found a fascination with Dolphin and whale songs for many reasons, and have always felt in agreement with the well known cliche' 'save the whales' and furthermore often wondered why 'saving whales' came to be used as a term used in conjunction with new agers and hippies who simply cared for the natural environment and its inhabitants, as well as having compassipon for human beings. 'Tree huggers' is another case in point here.

My thoughts on 'saving the whales' that are in line with some of those echoed at 'seaflow' correspond with the worlds 'sea based' military industrial complex, or the weapons, sonor and other acoustic technologies interfearing with the biological ecosystem and individual physiological systems, I mean to say that the Navy and/or oil and gas explorers are often responsible for cases of beached whales and dolphins around the world.

I agree, in the spirit of good science and research that there are many other factors relating to  cases of beached whales and dolphins, from 'social' theories of a kind of 'suicide' among these creatures to electro-magnetic anomalies that confuse their sonor, and I am happy that research is going on into these areas, Great Britain has an entire organization following cases of stranded marine life around the UK coastline, but the threat from 'low frequency active sonor' seems to have been deemed a low priority for them, who knows? maybe they already have a campaign to inform the public about the dangers from ocean noise in general and the fact that the Navy are often the humans to blame for some of the beachings and cases of stranded marine life.

Another strange thing happened just now when I went looking for seaflow's web site, its gone, but  I discovered another company that uses the name seaflow, ironically its actually an underwater turbine system that claims to be a viable renewable energy source by its makers.  

I'll write up some more on this subject after reading a liitle more into it, in the meantime the message is 'write to representatives about 'low frequency active sonor' and other ocean pollution that directly harms whales, dolphins and lots of other sea life too. Thanks, steve-fly

"When i read the court proceedings in Joyce's wake around page's 572-576, i instantly thought about the court hearing that will come concerning the banking turmoil and crash affecting all humanity, especially the poor and displaced peoples, due to the international global financial system in place in 2009.--Steve fly.

 James Joyce writes:
 
“This, lay readers and gentilemen, is perhaps the commonest
of all cases arising out of umbrella history in connection with the wood industries in our courts of litigation. D'Oyly Owens
holds (though Finn Magnusson of himself holds also) that so
long as there is a joint deposit account in the two names a
mutual obligation is posited. Owens cites Brerfuchs and Warren,
a foreign firm, since disseized, registered as Tangos, Limited,
for the sale of certain proprietary articles. The action which was
at the instance of the trustee of the heathen church emergency
fund, suing by its trustee, a resigned civil servant, for the
payment of tithes due was heard by Judge Doyle and also by a
common jury. No question arose as to the debt for which vouchers
spoke volumes. The defence alleged that payment had been made
effective. The fund trustee, one Jucundus Fecundus Xero
Pecundus Coppercheap, counterclaimed that payment was invalid
having been tendered to creditor under cover of a crossed cheque,
signed in the ordinary course, in the name of Wieldhelm, Hurls
Cross, voucher copy provided, and drawn by the senior partner
only by whom the lodgment of the species had been effected but
in their joint names. The bank particularised, the national misery
(now almost entirely in the hands of the four chief bondholders
for value in Tangos), declined to pay the draft, though there
were ample reserves to meet the liability, whereupon the trusty
Coppercheap negociated it for and on behalf of the fund of the
thing to a client of his, a notary, from whom, on consideration, he
received in exchange legal relief as between trusthee and bethrust,
with thanks. Since then the cheque, a good washable pink,
embossed D you D No 11 hundred and thirty 2, good for the figure
and face, had been circulating in the country for over thirtynine
years among holders of Pango stock, a rival concern, though not
one demonetised farthing had ever spun or fluctuated across the
counter in the semblance of hard coin or liquid cash. The jury (a
sour dozen of stout fellows all of whom were curiously named
after doyles) naturally disagreed jointly and severally, and the
belligerent judge, disagreeing with the allied jurors'
disagreement, went outside his jurisfiction altogether and ordered a
garnishee attachment to the neutral firm." -

Two new rants: Where's Frank and Who Killed Kelly?

RANT 1:


"The existence of the secret mind control programme of the CIA and the Army only came to light after Nixon’s resignation in 1974, when a fresh wind of “openness” seemed to flow through the opened windows of the Washington governmental offices. American journalist John Marks requested, using the Freedom of Information Act, several documents on the subject, which would result in Senate Hearings that occurred in 1977. A can of worms had been opened. Were there any references to Puharich in these documents? One of the projects that was part of this programme, BLUEBIRD/ARTICHOKE, ran from 1952 till 1956, roughly coinciding with the period when Puharich was assigned to Edgewood.--Philip Coppens, Beyond the stargate.

'Where's Frank?"

1953-56
A Can of worms or
A barrel of Cobras or 
An Oil tanker, full of Killer halibut?

1953-56, while be-bop blazed
Inside the heads of a whole new language
A Bluebird ate an Artichoke in Maryland.

What devilry possessed the authorities
To break the first rule of psychic engagement?
They altered the mind-scape of psychiatric patients
At Powick 1953-56.
Sheer coincidence?

Puharich's book 'The Sacred Mushroom'
Can be found
In a library quite near to that famous Hospital
Called Powick, where Elgar found inspiration.
And where John Rowland Reece, and
Doctor Ronald Sandison gave LSD,
And WHO KNOWS? whatever else,
To inmates, patients, subjects, whatever you like
To call those people without medical training
At Tavistock, Harvard, Camp-X? etc.

Yes, you guessed it,
You have arrived in my conspiracy
A number of dots, nodes, junctions in history
That tie together a bunch of loose laces,
And not just any old boot,
These are in fact Wellington Boots,
With deep Amazon jungle vine, latticed
Across and around them.
Here we simply show how similar ideas and practices
Of a particularly secret and sordid species,
Were taking place AT THE SAME TIME.

Yet, in modern historical studies,
Political, psychiatric, cultural and lingual we find no
Official record of these things ever taking place
As a part of a bigger, more Unified, cross-Atlantic
CONSPIRACY.
You dig?
Here, once more, fly agaric 23 presents:
Beyond 2012 and the Storgate Conspiracy.
Where's Frank?

I'll get back to my tiresome intellectual pursuits
That center around uncovering beauty and symmetry
In language and culture, and sharing.
Making music, poetry, and fun, for the most part.

Helping other artists and individuals discover
Poetry, music and 'new questions',
I'll get back to 'art for social change' after
I write my piece leading directly into
'The social',
Yet operates
To nullify and 'void' the sad atrocities we have seen
perpetuated by Military Industrial pharmacological
Complex.

Church and State departments seem to me
To have sat around
Thinking of new ways to trick, torture and steal from
THE PEOPLE,
The serfs, the rest of US, not serving
Them directly or on the pay roll?
Imprisoning us in State Department Stores
And Church led psychiatric shops.

Drug stores and more stores than anyone
Even Orwell or BILL HICKS could have imagined.
ALL THIS mockery of the great human potential
And power for ALL-AROUND-THE-WORLD
Co-operative collaborative systems!

Inter-accomadative systems
Like those defined by the great
Buckminster Fuller, who, between the years
1953-56 seemed to be perpetuating LIVINGRY
And with POETRY.

And with attention to LANGUAGE. And to STRUCTURE
Clear and well defined.
Technical, mathematical, and simplified
EQUATIONS,
Bucky mixed all styles of textual communication,
Combined with his vast Omniverse of
DESIGN REVOLUTIONS.

And Bucky was mostly ignored, for the most part
By the special PSYCHIC-DRUG lords,
Busy tampering with mind-altering drugs
In the name of National Security, and the usual
Illuminati agenda of control, manipulation and
Masks.

1953-1956, where's Frank now?
What were they up?
Them same old company tricks?
We can only guess that the smoke thickens
Light disappears and Oxygen leaves the room
"Breath once more, son, and your history"
The spook said in my ear.

Don't ask, don't mention it,
"An Iraqi super gun full of sea-monkeys?"
The round table conferences
The Wasson trips and Life magazine,
What year, what year was it now? huh?

Wiki the decade 1950-1960.
See what's up?
Wiki Powick, wiki Mk-Ultra
Wiki John Rowland Reece
And James Jesus Angleton
Wiki 'Dr. Timothy Leary'
And compare your Government employed
Agents, and those self-employed.

Would they, could they
Did they, dey they?
What else did they do to us, drugs and experiments
Do you feel it yet? the pressure
Of having something terrible to describe
Like torture and scenes of abuse, the worst kinds
Of atrocities that 'take away' what defines humans,
In my view: the ability to say NO and mean it.

Maybe I am wrong on all accounts
Possibly...
a. There were no LSD experiments at either Powick or in Maryland during the period 1953-56.
b. There were experiments but with the intention of purely medical and research based experiments, to improve our collective understanding of the unconscious and help humanity and the individual better their communication, or some such 'positive' goal.
c.  The experiments were only conducted using Mescaline and/or other psychoactive drugs, and/or methods such as Electro-shock so no LSD was used.
d. The secret services were not involved with the naive search for a 'Truth serum' and have had no interest in drugging people without their knowledge and observing them for the purposes of 'intelligence gathering' in the tradition of the more well known 'Nazi Doctors' and their in-human experiments.
e. I am an LSD casualty myself, and due to encounters with this marvelous medicine have developed an entire historical hallucination based upon a fictional Universe where nobody, not a soul, other than 'I' inhabit? None of these 'things' I write of are real. I invented them in a drug induced 'psychic' break with reality, in the singular.

And to Camp X-factor we run
Motor-way's and 'fish n' chip shops' flash by.
Alone, a thinker on the street, a self-employed
Agent dedicated to evolving all-around-the-world
Humanity,
And not just one company coffer.

I want the truth,
You can keep the serum,
Where's Frank?
I'll walk the plank scale for this my lovelies
James Bond dealt the acid, but never ate himself,
You dig.

Like Batman' s psychological warfare belt
Of drugs and potions,
1953-1956, come now, tell us, tell us all
I want to know your tricks and I want
To learn your trade, mate.
Is Frank here yet?
Where's Frank


RANT 2:

Who didn't murder David Kelly?

Who who who?
Somebody tried not to kill David Kelly, who?
David Kelly killed David Kelly?
Who didn't want him dead?
Who wanted David Kelly ALIVE, and why?
Who got blood on their hands, and who put
Blood on the Tele'?

Who who who?
An Iraqi weapons trade group?
Who want's him dead, who wants him alive?
Dead or alive, the question remains...
WHY DID TONY BLAIR OVERSEE FAKE INTELLIGENCE?
Why did the UK Government send hundreds of soldiers
To their deaths, based upon 'sexed up intelligence?"
Who who who benefits?
What wouldn't YOU have put past BUSH and BLAIR?

If D.K killed himself due to an honor principle
I would be honored if the other lying bastards behind the
Intelligence 'lies' concerning weapons of mass destruction'
Did the same thing, like how Bill Hicks might say it
"Kill Yourself, really" one less moron.
One less spook motherfucker!

So far, only David Kelly has done the honorable thing
Killed himself for what he had been a part of:
The manufacture of consent, the 'hoodwinking'
Of an entire nation, for the purposes of a continued
TRADE in weapons, poison, germs, guns and steel.

Tony Blair and his FAITH
In Lord Hutton, and Lord Hutton's faith that
70 years should do it, 70 years should be enough time
For humanity to forget, WHY, David Kelly killed himself
or Murdered himself? Murdered himself, huh?

So, it follows, if Kelly killed himself
We may look into the complex of factors that
Pushed him into the act, may we not?
Journalistic harassment, work pressure,
An unhealthy diet, psychiatric imbalance?
Lets not rule out any of these contributing factors
To his death, based on the 'suicide' model.

Maybe David didn't eat enough Artichokes?
What inquiry would find the media corporations
And Military itself 'guilty' of murder?
Like the JKF inquiry, you don't think these
Intelligencers are foolish enough to not have
THEIR MAN heading the so called inquiry?

Go back and look at the 911 commission
The 7/7 inquiry, the IRAQ WAR TRIALS,
The expenses scandal and, in fact, most Government
Investigations and inquiry's, even at the local level,
The courts have been 'packed'
The council 'stacked' with
THEIR men and their women,
Pretending to 'represent' us as some kind of
Autonomous 'free agent' whereas, in fact
They remain chiefly whipped into order by
Executive powers, spooks, investors,
Religious scripture.  

Who who who?
Who can break this spell,
Who can show us the relative truth,
In such a way that we'll never forget again,
The power of motivated individuals to transform
Humanity through peaceful, non-violent means.
Who who who?

Ray Kurzweil, the Dali Lama?
Madonna, Oprah, Robby Williams
Who who who?
Mick Jagger and Paul Mcartney?
Ken Wilber, Alex Jones?
Arianna Huffington, Stephen Hawking?
Who who who, who can lift the great ball of crystal
Julian Assange?

Suicide or Murder?
What's the difference?
The question is WHO helped deceive the British people
Into buying a WAR and supporting a group of serial killers
In their on-going international 'shopalypse' campaign?

Who killed him, who killed Diana?
Who poisoned the Russian agent,
Who set the underground bombs,
Who befriended Hitler's buddy
Who invented the 'spy' game?
What's their name, rank, and file?

Who befriended the American spooks?
And invited them into town, Vatican contacts and all?
Who who who?

Who killed senator Wellstone,
Who set the building seven 'bomb'
Who hired Diabold
Who wanted John Lennon shot?
Who paid Trent Lott
Who hired terrorists?
Who runs a flight school
Who dealt the 'promis' software
Who flew those planes
Who builds the weapons, the guns, the poison?
Who tops the pop charts,
Who hosts the XX factor.

Who killed David Kelly, and who forces us to
Stop thinking about it by releasing 'papers' that say
Keep calm and carry on?
Ignore the Kellenedy assassination.
Your missing valuable drinking time.
