President's Speech: more gambling the nation's human and material wealth on the casino table named "Iraq Civil War"

On the Presidential Speech, January 10, 2007, promoting increased Iraq involvement by American Force* * Note: Britain has announced a non-increase of armed forces, and is moving in the direction of withdrawal.  

The American Administration's overall at this point design seems to be to create powerful centralized government, much the same fashion as Hussein and the Shah. 

 Extraordinary concentration of American Armed forces in Baghdad is the most palpable expression of this speculation. 

 As one can observe in General MacArthur's campaign, swift and total occupational pattern is essentially the most important factor to achieve successful occupation especially of those heterogeneous territories of fundamentally different cultures.

 Within, as I remember, less than a month, entire territory of Imperial Japan was completely occupied by American Forces.  This maneuver itself inevitably creates a strongly centralized system covering the entire land. 

 Since the chance in Iraq to recreate the above maneuver is long gone, the Bush administration seems to take a reversed process: create a strong central government then expand it s power sphere over time. 

 As I mentioned already, the creation of a tightly centralized governing system is usually the product of successful total occupation, if above stated American design is what is going on ,any speculations at this stage in regard to the success or failure of said design would be as certain as throwing dice. 

 Perhaps because of this above mentioned uncertainty, the presidential speech puts more emphasis on delaying development of “after action-condition” when near total maximum security is achieved at some imaginary point in time. 

  This president is about gambling the nation's human and material wealth on the casino table named "Iraq Civil War”. I'll bet for losing.

 Thus I do strongly oppose the presidential proposition of putting a Stalinistic totalitarian maximum security police-state type government in place in the name of democracy. SM

Samizu 1973 diary as rhyming poetry - AI version

Samizu's 1973 diary as a poem In the summer's embrace, 'twas July's prime, Nineteen seventy-three, a memorable time. By the shore's edge, a beach so serene, Bill, Donny, and Malena, a heroic scene. A private cabana, borrowed with care, Under the sun, we gathered, a group so rare. Bodies glistened, the ocean's allure, Yet I sat in my chair, content to endure. Men's eyes were drawn to Malena's grace, Her beauty captivating, an ethereal chase. Nightfall beckoned, to an Italian delight, Pasta consumed, conversations taking flight. Bill's sister arrived, with a babe in her arms, Friends in tow, adding to summer's charms. Water beckoned, I entered a few times, Yet swimming eluded, as we savored the rhymes. Days unfolded, each with its own tale, As memories etched, like heroes, we prevailed. A bikini purchased, a morning's pursuit, But conversation reigned, boredom took its root. Bill and Malena bid their heartfelt goodbyes, Leaving behind memories ...

'70's realism painting pioneer Samizu Matsuki paints new Jimi Hendrix portraits

Image
Samizu Matsuki is an incredible and incredibly quiet and non assuming Japanese artist who played a pivotal though nearly invisible role in relegitimizing classical realism as an oil painting genre in New York City in the late 1960's and 1970s. Samizu's mother Masue Matsuki was a "Modern Girl" of 1920's interwar Japan; her father the educator Satoru Matsuki was also part of t he cultural revolution among young Japanese of that era, whose adoption of western clothing, culture and mass consumerism both galvanaized and alarmed Japanese society of the time. So too was her art teacher Setsuko Migishi at the Women's College of Fine Arts a Modern Girl; she who immersed her pupil in the western classical art tradition. For indeed, Samizu Matsuki, in her magically evocative realistic oil paintings,  can be considered as one of the culminating flowers of the Modern Girl philosophy, brought back,  to the American cultural capital of the 1960s and 70's: New Yor...
