Die beiden Fälle sind nicht vergleichbar - oder eben genau das: Nr. 1, also meine entspannte Version, hat die zivile Ebene der Regierung im Blick - Weißes Haus zu Kreml, die Außenministerien, mit der Voraussetzung, daß das Militär an der Leine zu halten ist. Das fällt unter "Diplomatie." Es ist etwas anderes, wennn Schritte unternommen werden, die Regierungen auszuschließen und ihnen die Kontrolle über das Militär zu entziehen oder zu verweigern, und sie nicht einmal davon zu informieren. Das fällt unter "Staatsstreich." Daß das mit den besten Absichten geschieht, tut nichts zur Sache. Putsche geschehen in aller Regel mit der Begründung, eine zivile Regierung, die ins Chaos steuert, an diesem Tun zu hindern. Das hier der oberste Militär allen Ernstes daran geglaubt zu haben scheint, sein Präsident könnte aus narzisstischer Kränkung mal eben den dritten Weltkrieg lostreten, zeigt schon, daß der Mann nicht auf diesen Posten gehört.

Zitat von Unherd.com. September 17, 2021Ignored by the Washington blob for a decade, his strategy's time has come. BY Edward Luttwak
Soon after becoming Vice-President in 2009, Joe Biden told Barack Obama and the entire national security council that the United States should: stop trying to build a feminist democracy in Afghanistan of all places, stop trying to build a national army from a pre-national population, and stop paying Pakistan more than $2 billion a year for the use of the port of Karachi and the road to Kandahar while Pakistan was funding the Haqqani network that specialised in killing Americans.
White House staffers, and Obama’s first Secretary of Defense, Robert Gates, would ridicule Biden’s repetitious perorations that simply ignored the expert consensus: both the civilian and military chiefs in the Pentagon, backed by leading “think tank” experts, fully agreed with Generals McChrystal and (Dr.) Petraeus. They were the commanders in Afghanistan who believed that progress was accelerating as more and more Afghans were rejecting fanaticism to embrace progress… and the first-class experts agreed with them! Petraeus would soon promulgate his Counterinsurgency manual FM 3-24 ( my review: “counterinsurgency as military malpractice”). ... But in 2009, Biden’s other problem was even bigger: one more reason he wanted the US out of Afghanistan (and Iraq) was to focus on China as a rising threat, when very few Americans agreed with him, and none in the White House. At that very time — the worst of the financial crisis — the US was asking the Europeans, Japan and also China to pump up public spending to save the world economy that was falling into a depression. The Europeans were skeptical (“Crisis? What crisis? Just your Lehman crisis, you fix it”, was the European response). Only the British responded, and the Chinese, who immediately launched Belt and Road, and other projects that deliberately employed tens of thousands with shovels — not just bulldozers. Obama was grateful and the US Treasury Secretary Geithner was ecstatic —it took two years (!) for the Europeans to react, and even then they moved very slowly, and spent very little.
In this climate, Biden was again isolated when he pointed out that China’s helpful public spending included very fast-growing military spending that contradicted its Peaceful Rise policy proclaimed in 2004. Having long chaired the Senate Foreign Relations Committee Biden heard warnings from several experts including the present writer [The Rise of China and the Logic of Strategy Harvard U Press 2012] and more importantly, Kevin Rudd, then Australia’s prime minister, who explained that China’s leaders believed that the fatal “General Crisis of Capitalism” had finally arrived. It had come too late for the USSR but just in time for the PRC to become the world’s most powerful state.
"Les hommes seront toujours fous; et ceux qui croient les guérir sont les plus fous de la bande." - Voltaire
Also entweder verfügt Biden über den ultimativen Plan oder er hat überhaupt keinen Plan.
Stand 23.06.: Dem BMWi fällt auf, dass der Strombedarf nicht bis 2030 konstant bleibt. 26.07.2021 DIW PLANT starken Nachfragerückgang bei Energie. to be continued
Ich will und kann nicht abstreiten das Biden 2009 etwas derartiges vorgeschlagen oder gesagt hat. Heute ist er nichtmehr der der Vorschläg und mit Plänen um die Ecke kommt.
Puh. Kabul. Ich schrieb irgendwo weiter oben ja schon: "this is the gift that keeps on giving."
Zitat von FirstPost, 19 SeptemberKabul Airport suicide attacker was freed by Taliban after four years in CIA custody for New Delhi terror plot
Abdul Rehman, a former engineering student with roots in Afghanistan’s Logar province and the son of a merchant who frequently visited New Delhi on business, was freed from Bagram prison on 15 August
The Islamic State suicide bomber who killed at least 169 Afghan civilians and 13 United States soldiers outside Kabul airport last month was incarcerated in Afghanistan’s notorious Bagram prison for the past four years, thanks to Indian efforts, Firstpost has learnt through credible intelligence sources.
Senior Indian intelligence sources familiar with the case have told Firstpost that he was handed over to the United States' Central Intelligence Agency by the Research and Analysis Wing in September 2017. However, the jihadist walked free on 15 August along with thousands of other dangerous terrorists held in the high-security prison, taking advantage of the chaos that ensued in the aftermath of the United State's hurried exit and the Taliban's swift takeover of the entire country.
Identified as Abdul Rehman, the jihadist was a former student of an engineering college in India and hailed from Afghanistan’s Logar province. He was the son of an Afghan merchant who frequently visited India for business.
His arrest had led to the termination of a plot by the Islamic State of Khurasan Province (IS-K) -- the Islamic State’s regional wing in Afghanistan -- to stage suicide bombings in New Delhi and other cities across the region, probably on the behest of Pakistan’s Inter-Services Intelligence Directorate (ISI).
"America’s disorganised retreat from Afghanistan has led to hundreds of highly-competent and highly-committed terrorists being set free to rejoin the Islamic State, al-Qaeda and other terrorist groups," one officer who worked on the Abdul Rehman case said.
"Literally a decade’s work on counter-terrorism has been undone by the US' failure to secure key prisoners in Bagram," he said adding that the consequences of this failure will be "very far-reaching."
The Islamic State’s South Asia magazine, Sawt al-Hind (or Voice of the Indian Subcontinent) also confirmed in this weekend's edition that the suicide bomber had earlier been arrested in New Delhi, in the course of a failed suicide-bombing plot.
The said plot was first brought into the public domain by The Indian Express in 2018 and was first detected in mid-2017 by the CIA, which had picked up intelligence from communications of IS leadership in Afghanistan and their financial support networks in Dubai.
Rehman was selected to lead the plot because of his familiarity with New Delhi, which the jihadist had visited on several occasions in connections with his family business.
Rehman, the sources said, arrived in India under cover of studying at an engineering institute in Noida. After staying in the institute’s hostel for some weeks, he moved to a flat in New Delhi’s Lajpat Nagar neighbourhood. Intercepted communications allowed RAW to insert an agent posing as a jihadist in Rehman's circle, who pretended to be furthering the plot by sourcing explosive devices and recruiting personnel.
Sources said that the Delhi Police’s counter-terrorism unit, which was led by now-Deputy Commissioner of Police Pramod Kushwaha, had conducted on-ground surveillance against Rehman for several weeks before his arrest.
RAW’s agent, the sources said, persuaded Rehman that he had recruited multiple suicide attackers and sourced enough explosives to conduct the attacks. This generated a lot of chatter in the extremists' network and caused multiple communication between the Afghan jihadist and his commanders, which the CIA was able to exploit.
Instead of prosecuting Rehman in India, the sources said, a decision was taken to extradite him to Kabul on a special flight, to facilitate the CIA's investigation. In Bagram, he was questioned by the CIA and Afghanistan’s intelligence service, the National Directorate of Security. The questioning led to the elimination of multiple Islamic State leaders in United States drone strikes till 2019.
"There’s no clarity on what happened to Abdul Rehman between his escape from Bagram and the suicide attack," one intelligence official said. "It is possible he wanted revenge, or that he was persuaded by his old jihadist friends to atone for his role in the killings of his associates in this manner."
Biden heute mittag auf der Pressekonferenz (13:12 Eastern Time / 18:12 MESZ), als er vor laufender kamera siene Auffrischungsimpfung verabreicht bekam:
Zitat August Takala @RudyTakala
REPORTER: How many Americans need to be vaccinated before getting back to normal?
BIDEN: Well, I think, look — I think we get the vast majority. 97, 98 percent.
Der CEO von Pfizer hat heute eine "Rückkehr zur Normalität" in "vielleicht einem Jahr" (also Ende 2022) vage in Aussicht gestellt - "mit Ausnahme derer, die nicht geimpft sind." Erinnert sich noch jemand an die bis zum Sommer überall herausgehängte Definition von "Herdenimmunität"? Pfizer hat heute auch Auffrischungsimpfungen im Jahrestakt angekündigt; und Impfungen für Kinder ab dem 5. Lebensjahr mindestens alle drei Jahre.
Macht euch eins schneidend klar: Wenn es nach diesen Leuten geht, werden wir NIE zu einer Normalität zurückkehren. Sie kommen nicht aus dieser Nummer heraus, und sie haben nicht die leisteste Absicht dazu.
"Les hommes seront toujours fous; et ceux qui croient les guérir sont les plus fous de la bande." - Voltaire
Wobei es abgesehen von den Irrfahrten des Bundes ala Zwangsimpfe in den USA in vielen Staaten schon wieder eine Normalität gibt. Sogar in der Volksrepublik New Jersey ich der ich mich aufhalte gibt es keine 2,3,4G Regeln. Freundlicher Hinweis auf Maske für Ungeimpfte (wird nicht kontrolliert) und ansonsten ist alles normal.Restaurants und Bars sind offen, Fitnesstudions und Sportstadien ebenfalls.
Ich habe eine innerliche Freudenträne vergossen als ich vor einigen Wochen eines der ersten College Football Spiele der Saison gesehen habe: locker 60k junge Menschen im Stadion am feiern. Und keine Maske weit und breit.
Das Pfizer und Co. kein Interesse an einer Normalität haben wenn man 600 Milionen Dosen Impfstoff pro Jahr verkaufen kann ist mir so klar wie sonstetwas. Das muss man genauso ignorieren wie ein McDonalds CEO der sich für die BigMac Pflicht ausspricht.
Hier hat niemand interesse an einer Rückkehr zu 2020 und Bidens Pfleger dürften das wissen. Man versucht den Rona Gaul noch etwas zu reiten und ein paar unbeliebte Gesetze durchzupeitschen aber eigentlich ist er tot.

Zitat von Sept 30, 2021Fake Views: White House Creates Illusionary White House Set for Joe Biden Events
The White House has developed a special video set for President Joe Biden events that are broadcast online or include video conferencing. As Biden sat down in a chair and rolled up his sleeve to get his vaccine booster shot on Monday, the window behind him showed a beautiful view of the Rose Garden.
But the president was not even in the White House at all. It was all a carefully crafted illusion. Instead he was on a new set in the South Court Auditorium in the Eisenhower Executive Office Building across the street from the actual White House. The window view of the Rose Garden appears to be a digital screen – depicting what the view could theoretically be if you looked out of the White House. Other events show the screens depicting different outdoor views. During a Biden event on global warming, one of the windows showed artificial views of solar panels. Biden’s staff now holds more White House events in the artificial set depicting the White House, especially if they include live video conferencing calls.
Behind the scenes photos of the set show that it includes a wide array of lighting, digital equipment and optics to make the president look as good as possible on video — and to make it look like he is speaking to the world from the White House. Photos of the set sparked online chatter about the president’s media strategy, recalling his specially constructed video set in the basement of his Delaware home during the 2020 presidential campaign.
It remains unclear why White House staff believe it is easier to create a fake White House set across the street instead of broadcasting from the actual White House building.
Wenn das so weitergeht, stellt sich demnächst heraus, daß die Mondlandung tatsächlich im Sandkasten in Hollywood gedreht worden ist. Oder in Joes Kohlenkeller.

Steve Bannon's lawyer tells House committee he will not comply with subpoena 'I stand with Trump and the Constitution,' said former White House strategist Lawmakers had asked him for documents and testimony on the Jan. 6 attack But his lawyer, Robert Costello, said Trump's 'executive privilege' meant that Bannon was unable to comply It sets up a possible legal challenge to force Bannon and other aides to testify
Former White House strategist Steve Bannon on Friday said he stood solidly with former President Trump and will not be cooperating with its investigation into the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.
'I stand with Trump and the Constitution,' he told DailyMail.com.
Bannon was one of four former officials that the House Jan. 6 committee subpoenaed to provide documents and testimony as they investigate the violence that engulfed the Capitol after a Trump rally nearby.

Zitat So the final thing I'll just say is: if you look at all the things that are going on: you see corporate media (although they weren't very happy with Virginia last night, if you watched some of that. There was some major coping going on). If you look at that, if you look at what's going on with some of the big corporations with their 'woke' agenda, when you look at the Biden ... the Brandon Administration ... in terms of what they're doing ...
(Sprechchöre: Let's go Brandon...[30 Sekunden])
You know... do you even know how that started? And you have the media, they're hand-wringing over this! It was at a NASCAR race, and they're doing an interview with the driver - I guess his name was Brandon - and the crowd starts chanting very colorful language about Joe Biden, and it was obvious what they were doing, and you know, it is what it is. First of all, they said way worse about Trump for four years. You know that. But they were chanting this. And so you have a reporter from NBC, who knows that's what they're saying. And she's trying to cover for Biden, and so she says, 'Yeah, they're chanting: Let's go Brandon!' And that was a lie. And so this chant, I think, has taken on a life of its own, because it exposes the dishonesty of these corporate reporters and what they do every day. They try to lie. And now you see it.

So ist es. Viele Journalisten lügen. Und das gilt speziell für Journalisten in den sogenannten großen bzw klassischen Medien (bei uns vor allem die ÖR-Medien). Die Lügen.
Der Unterschied scheint zu sein, dass in den USA dagegen noch Widerstand existiert. In Deutschland, einem ausgeprägten Untertanenstaat, gibt es abgesehen von Sachsen keinen Widerstand mehr.
Das letzte "Aufbäumen" war der Meme "Lügenpresse". Aber auch das wurde ja erfolgreich Nazifiziert, genau wie die Montagsdemos, die Lockdown- und Impfzwangskeptiker, die Rechtsstaatverteidiger, die Marktwirtschaftsbefürworter und noch ein Dutzend weitere Vorfälle und Subgruppen die erfolgreich Nazifiziert und aus der öffentlichen Diskussion gesäubert wurden.

Zitat von Nov 6, 2021Let's Go Brandon Trosclair, the business owner who got the Federal Court to freeze Biden's vaccine mandate
Brandon Trosclair, a native of Louisiana and an owner of a chain of supermarkets, is credited with having been instrumental in getting the Federal Appeals Court to block the Biden vaccine mandate.
Trosclair launched his own lawsuit, on behalf of his own company, BST Holdings LLC, and against the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), the government entity which had issued the mandate. The lawsuit alleges that OSHA does not have the legal authority to issue such a mandate, while also mentioning constitutional issues.
According to the Liberty Justice Center's website, "supermarket employees like Trosclair’s and other essential workers who braved the pandemic and were once hailed as heroes now face losing their jobs if they don’t comply with the government’s demands. And this is despite the fact they are not government employees, but are employed by private businesses."
"I am faced with an incomprehensible choice imposed upon me by the federal government: force these workers, whose dedication and skills have fueled my business’s success, to take the COVID vaccine – or show them the door," commented Trosclair on the subject.
Trosclair runs a grand total of 16 supermarkets in the states of Louisiana and Mississippi, and is responsible for a total of more than 500 employees.
If this legal action prospers, the plaintiff could be granted a permanent injunction against OSHA and the federal government. The vaccine mandate may even wind up struck down altogether.
A federal court in Louisiana has blocked the Biden administration's mandate that millions of workers get vaccinated against Covid-19 or be tested weekly, ruling in a suit filed by several states, companies and conservative religious groups.
"Because the petitions give cause to believe there are grave statutory and constitutional issues with the Mandate, the Mandate is hereby STAYED pending further action by this court," a panel of judges for the New Orleans-based Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled Saturday.
More than two dozen states have filed multiple legal challenges in federal court against the Biden administration’s vaccinate-or-test mandate for private businesses, arguing that the Occupational Safety and Health Administration doesn’t have the authority to issue the requirements.
The four lawsuits were filed by groups of 26 states in the 8th Circuit, 11th Circuit, 6th Circuit and 5th Circuit over the past few days. They seek to nullify an emergency rule released Thursday that requires companies with more than 100 employees to verify their workers are vaccinated or have unvaccinated workers wear masks and submit to weekly Covid-19 testing.
The small business group Job Creators Network, as well as the Republican National Committee, have also said they plan to file lawsuits.
Broadly, the lawsuits argue that the Department of Labor lacks the authority to issue a rule and that it did not follow the proper procedure in issuing the emergency temporary standard.
The suit led by Florida, Georgia and Alabama in the 11th Circuit also argues the requirements conflict with the First Amendment and the Religious Freedom Restoration Act.
“This unlawful mandate is yet another example of the Biden administration’s complete disregard for the Constitutional rights afforded to our state and our citizens,” said Georgia Attorney General Chris Carr in a statement. “The federal government has no authority to force healthcare decisions on Georgia’s companies and its employees under the guise of workplace safety. We are fighting back against this unprecedented abuse of power to stop this mandate before it causes irreparable harm to our state and its economy.”
The court gave the government until 5 p.m. Monday to respond to the plaintiffs' request for a permanent injunction. The Justice Department declined to comment. The White House referred comment to the Department of Labor.

Biden’s $1.2 Trillion Infrastructure Bill Hastens Beacons For Bicyclists And Pedestrians Enabling Detection By Connected Cars
Beaconization — or equipping bicycles and pedestrians with transponder beacons that can be spotted automatically by sensor-equipped cars—has been given the official seal of approval in the U.S., reveals a tucked away part of the $1.2 trillion bipartisan infrastructure bill passed by the House of Representatives on November 5.
The mammoth measure passed in a 228-206 vote, with support from thirteen Republicans. Six Democrats voted against it, including Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York. Biden could sign the bill within days.
An easy to miss part of the Act also formalizes the acceptance of so-called “vehicle to everything” (V2X) technology that, on the face of it, promises enhanced safety on the roads for pedestrians and cyclists.
However, experts warn there are critical downsides to the deployment of such technology.

Zitat von 16:23 GMT, 11 November 2021 Biden pays tribute to son Beau, the 'great negro pitcher' Satchel Paige, troops killed in Afghanistan and Colin Powell in Veterans Day speech at Tomb of the Unknown Soldier on its Centennial
Biden made a joke about them getting up in age by telling an anecdote about baseball player Satchel Paige.
'I know that you're a little younger than I am, but I've adopted the attitude of the great negro - at the time - pitcher in the negro leagues, went on to become a great pitcher in the pros and Major League Baseball after Jackie Robinson, his name was Satchel Paige. And Satchel Paige on his 47th birthday pitched a win against Chicago,' Biden said.
Reporters asked Paige how he felt about being 47.
'He said boys that's not how I look at it. I look at it this way, how old would you be if you didn't know how old you were?' Paige replied, according to Biden.
'I'm 50 years old - and the ambassador's 47,' Biden joked.
Die Story von Satchel Paige hat Biden auch schon dem Heiligen Vater erzählt. Freilich ohne das zu dessen Zeit noch nicht verpönte Wort.

Zitat OSHA has ‘suspended activities’ related to Biden’s vaccine mandate
Cites adverse court ruling, signals long fight ahead
The Washington Times - Wednesday, November 17, 2021
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration has suspended work on President Biden’s vaccine mandate after a federal appeals court hit pause on rules that would force companies with 100 more employees to require COVID-19 shots or regular testing.
OSHA pointed to the stay from the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 5th Circuit but said the court fight over the regulation, known as an emergency temporary standard, isn’t over.
“The court ordered that OSHA ‘take no steps to implement or enforce’ the ETS until further court order,” the notice on its website says. “While OSHA remains confident in its authority to protect workers in emergencies, OSHA has suspended activities related to the implementation and enforcement of the ETS pending future developments in the litigation.”
