There is only one drummer.
The innocent people who live in a territory called Iran are targeted. Little do they know that in a matter of years their lives will be torn apart like the millions of their neighbours in the territory called Iraq. This time it won’t be the USA attacking them but another foreign power who fooled its people into dying for them by telling them there is a glorious after-life awaiting them.
Why does history repeat itself? Is there some formula that is being applied here?
I know there is.
Its important to look at both sides of the equation. What is being said in the Iranian press? If you were to go by the www.iran-daily.com it looks like they want this fight. The same sort of propaganda is being applied to the Iranians. Why is this? To me this is “war making”. After all a war needs sides.
On the whole, people do not have problems with people in other countries. I think its horrendously sad that the Iraq invasion was solely to get rid of its leader Saddam. Yet millions of Iraqi natives are displaced for one man? Millions have died for one man. What stopped the millions who let this happen from seeing this? If you have a problem with one man. Just go after that man - not his fellow natives. It would be naive of me to follow this path as this was never the point of invading Iraq to being with. Situations like this need an excuse and Saddam was that excuse for invading Iraq.
In western press it is obvious that Iran’s leader is being targetting. All of Iran (from new born babies to their wise elders) will suffer and he will be blamed as the western world lets this happen. The blood of all innocents is on the hands of the people who let it happen by not getting involved.
From France & Israel to the USA and Iran. The drum beat is getting louder. The spin-docters are gearing up to create public opinion by way of “opinion polls” and “vox-pops”. If you use your head and think you’ll see this. Your opinion is being manufactured and because you think its yours you’ll think its correct. Question where your opinions come from and what makes impressions on you. Then you’ll start to the drummer.
There is only one drummer.

No commentsTavistock Institute of Human Relations
I obtained a copy of Dr. John Colemans work on the Tavistock Institute of human relations and have justĀ completed by first pass of the book. There is some very interesting points raised in the book.
However, I do not agree with all that he has written. I will give a full summary of the text on my the main sites page dedicated to this institute in the coming days.
The book itself has some of the best references for behavior control and I have already purchased a number of them for further research.
An interesting link I came across whilst looking up one of the sources was this from Cabinet Magazine.
I strongly recommend that you have a read of this article and really think about the times which are mentioned and ponder the possible developments since.
No comments“The Family Is No Longer Private” - Karen Kiernan, Oneparent.ie
I had to run an errand today on my lunch hour. After I was finished that, I decided to have a bite to eat in a cafe near by. Whilst there, I picked up a copy of todays Irish Times.
As usual, I head straight for the World News section, to get an idea of what the Irish Times thinks we should know about. I follow this by going to the Opinion & Analysis section to see what people will be talking about tomorrow. (cynical…I’ve been told)
I read a very interesting article about how parents today need support when raring their children. Traditionally, this support would come from other family members, but now since we have
different forms of families we need a communal approach to providing support.
The part of this article that really shocked me is that this group oneparent.ie actually stated that the in todays society, the family “is no longer private”. Please, please think about this statement. Take a surreal approach to it if necessary and see what you come up with.
How is the family no longer private? Is it down to the proximity to our neighbors? Can they see in the kitchen window? Or is it the fact they we now have to rely on strangers to bring up our offspring in creches and schools?
If there is every a chance that Karen Kiernan of Oneparent.ie reads this post, please comment with an explanation to what you mean by this. I would be fascinated to know.
I agree with Karen that lone parents do need a good support system so they can get on with their lives and provide for their children. However, I do not agree that we should call on the government to provide this as they are the cause of such problems in the first instance. If you don’t believe me about this, please read a book by Lord Bertrand Russell called the Impact of Science on Society (1953)
I sincerely hope that people who read this rag do not take this opinion as fact as often the case in the society.

No commentsAnother Day In The Empire
Welcome and hello. Thanks for stopping by.
This is my new blog on YamdaBlam!
Whats this all about I hear you say?
Well….to start I’ve always wanted to get my own proper blog up and running. I’ve tried to do it in the past with various incarnations but to no avail. They have been left to rot in cyberspace.
Now, since I am paying for this, I know it will be updated on a regular basis.
What will I be blogging about?
This blog is primarily to further the topics which are covered on YamdaBlam!
My interests these days are mainly concerned with both the historic and present forces driving our world today. Forces that result in the educational system our children are in, the programmes which people watch and the mass events which we become witness to or are involved in.
You can probably guess what some of the topics I’ll be touching on are:
- Education
- Media
- Society
- Government
- Shadow Governments
- War
- Technology
- History
- Economics
- Psychology and behaviorism.
There are a select few foundations and organisations which have a vested interest in each of these areas and how they apply to the human condition. Ultimately I want to highlight how we as human beings are being manipulated on a daily basis.
Most importantly, I wish to get you involved via comments and contributions and arguments.
Talk to you soon!
YamdaBlam!
