More hardball

I just read this long drawn out military institute studies center treatise on Brazil and its involvement in ww2. read it if you want-socio-economic info regarding its neighboring countries
and their Germanic influence which was vast and dangerous to the U.S., Chile-Paraguay-Argentina
were pro-Nazi and had enormous resources to feed the war machine in Europe. in fact Hitler and
his ilk had already drawn up elaborate plans to take over south America and make it 2 countries
only, brazilia and the Argentine with a divisory line right across the country ignoring the other established countries. to get the Brazilians won over to the allied side was not easy as it seems
the axis was unstoppable at that point. this is how the u.s. won them over. they made a movie
about Brazil showing the abject misery of the people and the injustices of a despotic regimen.
it was well made insofar as inflammatory psychological undertones regarding the current state of affairs. the pre-screening in Washington d.c. was a gala affair and of course the ambassador of Brazil would surely not miss this great movie extolling the beauty and grandeur of his country.to make it easy it was like 9/11 Fahrenheit to the government then -and worse-it was designed to create an enormous uproar quite possibly and specifically to lead to a civil uprising and revolution. the ambassador was speechless and furious-film canisters were already in place in brazil ready for showing. the government there realized this was only the beginning of the things that could be thrust upon them by a capable adversary. below is a photo of brazilian pilots, happy with their contribution in the war effort-unaware of how their country was hoodwinked.

Parasailing

Do you know what para sailing is?
that's when you give a perfect stranger $40 to entrust your life with a rope.
Living in resorts i got plenty of stories to tell you. i saw lots of hard landings and many water
landings both provided broken limbs and watery graves due to cord entanglements.
one guy takes his 6 yr old with him, the rope snaps and the strong winds blow him 3 miles
and they plop right down smack in front of a foursome on the 7Th tee on the golf course and end up against a palm tree-unhurt.

i watched a woman on the edge of a 10 story bldg. hanging, with cords entangled, she was stone cold out, fainted or by the initial blow. 30 people were trying to pull her down-this lasted at least an hour-(i had to get back to work ) never found out her final condition.

an ex parasailer employee came looking for work with us. after he was hired we found out 2 people died on his tour , they fell out of their tandem chair from about 250 feet, they were celebrating their anniversary.

at a resort that was still being built, a lady got off course and was suspended from a high crane for 4 hrs, being a Sunday we had to call in the operator to help get her down.

most of the seasoned operators are very good, they wont take you up if the wind is too much too little and can usually land you within a 15 ft. radius. the creeps who don't enough revenue will put you in jeopardy. the inexperienced ones, to save and make money-rather land you in safe water will try the land landing and smack you against a palm tree and this is where i saw most mishaps.

some of them are so good- there was a watch and perfume counterfeiting operation in a foreign country beach resort penthouse-that an Interpol team sought out the best parasailer to take up a photographer to record what they could-he got him right on the dime carefully lowering and
lifting him as to not arouse suspicion--zzzt-zzzt-zzzt a high speed camera recorded everything.

Hardball

conspiracy stories often have a grain of truth to them-often it is hard to gather information due to disinformation. the following scenario makes for creative minds at work, be that as it may this one in particular has no precedent that i know of.

since the very beginning of launches out of cape Canaveral in the sixties there were always

Russian tuna boats present as the territorial waters between Florida and Cuba squeeze the limit from 200 to about 90 miles. these fishing boats concealed sophisticated electronic eavesdropping devices prying as much as they could gather from the then called telemetry

streams between the rockets and land receivers. every single launch was monitored -all of them without exception---the only time they did not was when the Columbia exploded. law enforcement and military as well as private investigators as a general rule do not believe in coincidences -it is protocol and taught as generally accepted principles and this one is not exempt. Morton thiokol is not to blame here. the Russians did not approve of the payload.

most military payload launches go west- and east for regular missions. at one point the u.s.

started hiding secret loads on known schedules trying to hide the fact. the palapa satellite

launched for Indonesia's communication system, courtesy of NASA, for example- disguised a orbital release of who knows what at the same time. payback is a bitch as the saying goes and Chernobyl was it. you guys wanna play hardball? take this! a known and respected Latin political journal (proceso) exposed a scam where all the tainted dry milk exported from Russia to Mexico

was radiation laden and unacceptable for human consumption (corruption on both sides)

they discovered witnesses at the site who saw a UFO hover over the plant and shoot a beam down

that threw the cooling system out of kilter-the UFO was really some secret craft from the the u.s.

if you think the story was dreamt up by someone who had one too many margaritas then you should start reading more to understand the human nature side of rat f*****g- that is what the pentagon coined for the term to describe the activities they would undertake to get things done

that were most urgent, this was back in ww2 in a special office called room 34. if you have never

seen rats do it- it is the most unpleasant thing to see and imagine yourself on the receiving end-

i really do suggest you see it -maybe its on YouTube or something, the term has a reason why the lawyers and spooks use it.

the shield and spear

there was a man in the Chinese village trying to sell a spear and shield, extolling the virtues of his wares he stated the shield was impenetrable to any sword or spear. the spear he said could penetrate any shield in china. someone asked what would happen if he threw his spear at his own shield? embarrassed he left as people said these two things could never co-exist.

veterans pages

place any number followed by st or rd, for example 334th or 221st (you will develop a knack for it) and you will find associations from ww2-korea-vietnam, other countries have similar search results. i have read at least 300 of them, some have limited reading others have 850 pages.
but most of them have the most fascinating stories of men (and women) at war that bring out the best and worst of humans during those trying times. im going to ramble off a few i remember.

this guy saves a driver from a car wreck in d.c.,pulls him out saving his life. it was snowing heavily. the family tracks him down to thank him. 6 years later he is on a death march from mooseburg germany in the snow-the germans have made the prisoners march up to 500 miles
to keep them out of the hands of the advancing russians. falling out is not an option as guard dogs
and angry soldiers would most likely kill them. he sees a fellow soldier drop but since he has the energy he rolls him over to pick him up and carry him--hey, how many times do i have to save you in the snow? it was the same guy from the car wreck!

a jewish lady escapes a prison camp and almost dies crossing the alps -she only survived by not sleeping as she would have frozen to death. on the verge of giving up she hears the famous sheep trumpet of swiss fame around some rocks and as she comes out she scares the young man as her condition is most deplorable. the boy said there was a yeti out there! his family saves her and nurses her back to health. she manages to escape to the u.s. and although has very litlle wages
sends food parcels through switzerland despite the criticism of her peers who point out they will never reach their destination during the war. every week she sent the parcels for a total of 20% of her earnings. after the war she is asked to be a tour guide for europe tours in 1947 as she speaks various languages and is familiar with the area. she takes a break to look for her saviours
in austria and finds the family with 30 others living in a bombed out bldg. everyone else in that small canton starved to death- the swiss post was able to deliver all packages secretly, we only survived because of the parcels. thank god she did not cave in to the do-gooders- oh honey why are you wasting your money on them.

a soldier is the first one in an indian file of a squad walking down a street in france on recon-he trips on his shoelace as a hidden machine gun opens up- falling down the other soldiers are killed.

in italy 7 soldiers are at a table with wine and dinner- a shell from nowhere comes thru the window -after the explosion one guy is sitting alone on a chair no table no 6 guys no house
just the one guy with a fork in his hand.

a german trooper comes back home minus one leg. his father is also missing a leg from ww1
he asks where-thats the same town i lost my leg! what part? a church, in the cemetary behind it.
same town same church same cemetary-father and son lost a leg except in different wars.

brittish flyer strafes truck and armor convoy in north africa repeatedly. when landing 2 ambulances and crew wagons chase him till he stops-whats up? why are you chasing me?
the plane had over 300 hits and looked like a sieve the majority just back of the cockpit,
the pilot was unhurt and totally unaware.

coming thru the paddies in vietnam upon a village the lead soldier steps on a trap wire, the noose
closing on his ankle and pulling him up in the air upside down, and now here comes a mortar shell with the fins still attached straight down from the tree as a planned booby trap but he catches it and is dangling in mid-air with a mortar shell in his hand.
another one-soldiers are moving thru trees and a mortar shell comes down right on top of them but is stuck in the fork of a tree 2 feet above them.

the first landing of american troops in north africa include 2 coca-cola bottling plants!

the red cross hid escape tools in marked red cross parcels for p.ow.s. including monopoly games with hidden silk escape maps.

this one from russia--as german troops move on a russian cannon battery-all the crews are dead
but in original positions frozen in time no blood no damage nothing damaged, they are sitting with shells in hand ready for loading but dead around 100 of them-the troops are told it is a secret weapon that killed them and not gas and to not discuss it--more on secret weapons later.
i have shown this site to experts of the field and they say it was gas-dont think so -hitler and everyone else had it and were waiting for the first use to unleash all they had.

good luck-bad luck

a chinese farmers son was admonished because their only horse bolted and ran away, being the

lively hood of the farm the neighbors said it was bad luck-bad luck has nothing to do with it he answered, but they insisted it was bad luck. the next day the horse came back with a herd he found on the plains. now they were the richest farmers all around with 27 horses-oh thats good luck they said, its not good luck it just happened he stated-good luck/ bad luck its all the same to me. the next day the son broke his leg in all fall while training the horses. oh thats bad luck they started in again. the day after, a war lord took all abled bodied men for a battle looming on the horizon except the son with the bad leg.-oh thats good luck. well the story goes on with the see-saw of good-bad luck untill you get the point---good luck.

critics

An old man, a boy and a donkey, were going to town. The boy rode on the donkey and the old man walked. As they went along they passed some people who remarked it was a shame the old man was walking and the boy was riding. The man and boy thought maybe the critics were right, so they changed positions. Then, later, they passed some people who remarked, 'What a shame, he makes that little boy walk.' So they then decided they'd both walk! Soon they passed some more people who thought they were stupid to walk when they had a decent donkey to ride. So, they both rode the donkey. Now they passed some people who shamed them by saying how awful to put such a load on a poor donkey. The boy and man figured they were probably right, so they decide to carry the donkey. As they crossed the bridge, they lost their grip on the animal and he fell into the river and drowned. The moral of the story? If you try to please everyone, you might as well... ...Kiss your ass goodbye!
