Guerrero Forgot one thing. As to the ability of the US to invade and conquer Venezuela, I fear you may understate their ability. A naval blockade, attacking military and certain infrastructure targets by air and sea, with support from locals siding with the elites and special forces and they will most certainly be able to force a regime change…

Yeah, but all Simón Bolivar has to do is to roll over in his grave and so much for Uncle Sam’s army.

We climbed a popular mountain today on the last clear day before monsoon season, to celebrate climbing it under nearly identical climatic and monsoon incept date fully 25 years ago. So much for the Inconvenient Epistles from New Energy Revelations of Pope Albertus and his Carbon Catholic of the Holy Trinity, Mil:Gov:Biz.
But that’s off-topic. Our silent vigle (sp) was interrupted by two buffalo women harridans and they sat there chewing the fat and ruining the absolute quiet of autumn by reverse-misogynizing the miracle of childbirth and family, gargling that men are sh*t and getting a woman pregnant’ is rape, and is the man condemning the woman to a life of penury, pausing for emphasis, ‘according to NOW statistics’.
So it’s not surprising as 95% of quality jobs for USAryan graduates plummet to a generational absolute zero, in the tsunami of fake diploma human-trafficked East Asians, that with 1,250,000 H-immigrants flying over the border by the jumbo jet load, an equal number of USAryan births will be postponed or cancelled, except for the very poor, where a child means survival on public assistance.
So the outcome, and it’s always about the outcome, will be a sterilized aptly yclept Exceptional White society swiftly being overwhelmed by East Asians immigration and disadvantaged minority births, …although, there is also a very large and disparately growing number of Russians and East Europeans landing in SeaTac, the second most likely language you’ll hear in parks and public beaches in PacNW, after the blue monkey god sadhus lolly bolly.
Once Boeing drags up and moves production to India, and Microsoft and Amazon become India-owned and operated (with Jack Ma and Alibaba drop-shipping ultra-low-cost Chinese chipsets in through Amazon), and after Carbon Catholic WA State government enacts the first carbon tax in two weeks, WA State will look like Central Cal…with cold monsoons.
It’s the Japanese conundrum. Remain societally pure but increasingly elderly and financially bankrupt, or embrace socialism and multiculturalism, and swiftly become bankrupt.
Once this last bulge of White Baby Boomers is jacked out of their retirement homes and into Big Hospice, with the last unencumbered wealth on earth on Corporate auto-deduct and lockdown, (which will complete in less than a decade), once that happens, retail sector will collapse, Millenials will go broke, and USArya will declare insolvency.
Then any place in USArya will look like any place in Hyderabad or Caracas.

Esteemed Anton, the prognosis you provide seems rather grim; if the USArya looks like the 3rdWorld now,
The denizens had best start to have fun in spite of their misery, and learn to sound out some heartfelt yells.

If the people weren’t so chicken they would be more open to novel ideas and to the divine rays of love
as it is, the Northamericans are so worried about every little thing, they’re even afraid to get on a bull!

We hold these tweets to be self-evident
The Earth shall not abideth forever
Comparing dick size forces men to reach for bigger rulers
We are living at the Villa Borghese and we are all dead
Every spoken word amplifies noise
Behold the interior dialogue!
God and Devil—which spaketh yea loudest?
A single word of truth plays gunfire into a room of the self-deceived
Words alone make lonely words
Loneliness—American as blowing away innocents with an assault rifle
A dream intensely felt but half-remembered
Hidden somewhere
Among fabulations of the soul
Sex
Me
All of you

Fascinating public radio play today about censorship on Facebook, describing the mental gymnastics for whether or not to show the female breast. Incredible. Baby on breast, lips attached, OK. Nipple showing, not OK. Baby now turned 18, not OK. Teenage mother nursing, not OK. Nursing a goat kid to save it, not OK. Showing both teenage nipples while throat being cut by I$I$, not OK.
Apparently there is a mass group of censors using AI to flag suspect images, and the images flash across their screens, 100s a day, good sex, bad sex, fights, stabbings, shootings, murdercselfies, snuffs, I$I$ pogroms, bodies dead, bodies mutilated, bodies burned, exploded. And some poor schmuck has to hit Delete, then notify the Controlled Dissent archbishops to divide with a dualism razor and then pre-define the red line limits of what ‘reality’ is presented to us, even on the Net.
That’s why the 1W and especially the ‘educated’ can be described as ‘sleep walkers’, living in Dreamland and afraid to even ride a mechanical bull, much less rush to aid an old Vietnamese pedestrian just turned into roadkill in front of their eyes by a Young Turk Chinese condo owner in their flashy SUV.
If you just watched solely the million or so humans who die every day, you would have to watch 14 deaths every second, a virtual-reality stop-motion video of Death, that would leave not a nanosecond free to loiter on MoA and wonder idly about The New American Century Parable 10:11 ‘A Man Walked Into An Embassy.

White women will be at the head of the New American Century Deep Purple Mil.Gov UniParty, and strangely, as CEOs of all the Big Defense corporations. They will control childhood, who is selected of The Chosen and who Not. They will control the Last Unencumbered Wealth on earth as their Boomer parents die off, and the last free savings of their working and soon disposable husbands.
But that’s it. A ‘kinder, gentler’ face of the same Rodham-Merkelrian New World Order, with only a handful of 3W matrilineal societies, all controlled by a supra-national credit-debt Pharoahocracy, and perhaps even the Scientocratic 97% White Male Carbon Catholic of the New Energy Revelations.

BREAKING
Washington (CNN) — President Donald Trump announced Saturday that the US is pulling out of the landmark Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty with Russia, a decades-old agreement that has drawn the ire of the President.
“Russia has violated the agreement. They’ve been violating it for many years,” Trump told reporters before boarding Air Force One to leave Nevada following a campaign rally.
Later that day, Trump signed a $100B IDIQNB ICBM modernization contract with a Boeing-Lockheed front company, violating SALT, then approved Boeing moving it’s new manufacturing operations to India, lol.

I rode a bull when I was younger… well for a short time, then the bull tromped all over me. Seems a bit of a mugs game. Catching bulls and shipping them off to the meatworks was much more rewarding.

You are right about that, partner. In the little country rodeos a rider might get twenty dollars if he stays on.
It’s for the glory, the admiration, the girls, one supposes. it’s a young man’s game riding bulls: to prove to
oneself that one is NOT afraid to drop and go out the chute. Not everyone is able to make themselves do this.

scene 20 *******************************************************
Da un paseíto hasta la caja donde el toro negro está amarrado,
un compañero suyo va junto a el, mirándole, inspeccionándole.
Stepping jauntily over to the box where a big black bull is tied,
his partner moves closer to him, looks over at him, checking him.
Los ayudantes lo ayudan a manipular la bestia jalando cuerdas;
tienen una red de lazos atando y sosteniendo la cabeza del toro.
The rodeo helpers manipulate the beast pulling on the ropes;
they have lassoed a web of these ropes around the bull’s head.
Mientras jalan, un caporal flaco tuerce ferozmente la cola al toro;
tienen a este enorme toro negro completamente atado y esperándolo.
While they pull, a skinny cowboy ferociously twists the bull’s tail;
they have this big bruiser black bull all pinioned, waiting for him.
El inspecciona la cinta del cincho, la cual su ayudante ya ha apretado;
se mueve en automático como si cada nervio de su cuerpo quisiera correr.
He checks the cinch strap, which his helper has already tightened;
he moves on automatically as every nerve in his body wanted to run.
Sube a los lados de la valla hasta que esta * sobre * el toro;
los jinetes siguen manteniendo al animal en el cajón para él.
He climbs onto the sideboards of the pen until he is *over* the bull;
the cowboys are all manipulating the animal into the chute for him.
El miedo regresa a su corazón, él busca la oportunidad para saltar;
ante la presencia de la enorme bestia, siente que ocurrirá lo peor.
The fear rises again in his heart, he’s looking for a chance to jump;
In the presence of the huge beast, he fears that the worst will happen.
El tratar de brincar; el toro está muy cerca de los lados de la caja;
tiene que asegurarse de sentarse antes de salir volando por la puerta.
He tries to leap but the bull is too close to the side gate;
he has to be sure to get seated before flying out the chute.
Él está arriba posándose en los travesaños de fierro;
preparando su salto hacia el bruto en cualquier momento.
He is high up on the boards perched on the iron railings;
getting set to leap onto the brute creature at any moment.
scene 21 **********************************************************
El esta arriba y listo y mueve su cabeza todo en un solo movimiento;
de repente se oye el¡Sale! ¡Puerta! Agarrándose a la cinta del cincho.
He’s up and set and he nods his head all in a single motion;
Suddenly the “Now!” “Door!” He is grabbing at the cinch-hold.
A su cabeceo, la puerta de madera se abre y el toro se dispara
hacia la plaza; se escucha la música de una banda borrachísima.
At his nod, the wooden gate is flung open, and the bull fires out
into the dirt patch arena as music of a very drunken band is heard.
Como cae, él está enterrando sus espuelas en los flancos de la bestia;
cuando los caporales abren la puerta, el animal resopla como demonio!
As he drops he is setting his spurs at the beast’s flanks.
Rodeo helpers open the chute, the animal vaults like a demon!
Cuando la explosión salvaje de la acción empieza se hace recordar:
“NO te claves sobre los cuernos” “mantente firme usando las piernas”
When the savage explosion of wild action begins, he reminds himself:
“DON’T get pitched over the horns” “keep ahold tight with your legs”

Some riders hold a card between their lips. Some ride the bull without holding on with their hands.
The idea is to balance oneself with one’s two arms waving wide, its quite a trick when they can do it
Of course, there is no such thing as a country rodeo, without a fifteen piece band to lay down the tune.
http://mexico-nostalgia.net/tecalpulco/porrazo-del-kanguro/
Kanguru is the rider’s nickname. Sometimes the names of local legendary riders are taken.
Who knows how a Mexican man got his nickname? Everyone has his. Especially, the bull-riders.
Porrazo in English-language would be:
“tumble”, as in: “to take a tumble” i.e. to fall on to the ground.
That is all I can think of now that’s not about Khashoggi.

At 1:11 the announcer loudly declaims: Esta noche. Esta noche. ¡Así se juega la vida!
* * * In English this means: “Tonight. Tonight. Thus, Life is played!”
“Thus, life is played” is a literal translation of the phrase “¡Así se juega la vida!
What it really means is: Here you see this valient rider who plays with his life!
Just because death is inevitable, foolish youth feel like they want to laugh at it.
Bull riders dare themselves to look death in the eye. These brave youth exude a devil-may-care
attitude and, naturally, people who would never dare get on even a mechanical bull admire them.
This quality is somehow characteristic of Guerreran culture which historically has been regarded
by other Mexicans as redblooded and dangerous, being the vast remote mountaneous State that it is.
In the War of Independence, Guerrero was the home of the great heroes, for example Vicente Guerrero, who is the namesake of the State itself. Guerrero is also the home of innumerable men who shot their own best friend an hour before dawn, when a drunken fight interrupted their previously delightful festivities.
