Another bloody silly coincidence theory pt258




I have to confess that I didn't actually watch the Olympic handover ceremony in Beijing last month

But maybe I should have

Thanks to MP for sending me a link to an interesting discussion thread
over at the David Icke forum

Tthe thread starts off well but is dragged away to La-La Land quite quickly. As MP points out 'You have to wade through a lot of nutcasery but there is some thought-provoking stuff there'

Not least the references made to the peculiar bit in the middle of the Olympic handover ceremony where a small child walks over a series of bodies and, in the words of one contributor to the discussion...

"The bus bombing ceremony starts with dancers crowding around the bus doorway, they suddenly throw themselves backwards as if a bomb has exploded on the bus, they are scattered on the ground near the bus which reveals a muslim standing on the bus

The top section of the bus then explodes outwards exactly as on 7/7 & up pops the former owner of Aleister Crowleys house & well known satanist, Jimmy Page.

Beckham & Leona Lewis stand on top of the bus as the camera pans across to the Olympic flame coming from a giant torch covered in 666 symbols.

The muslim steps off the bus & walks over the bodies lying on the ground."




Unfortunately, the IOC is enforcing its copyright pretty aggressively so I can only post a link to the full excruciating 15 minutes of Illuminated NWO wank. The bus starts doing interesting things round about 8:20 minutes in...



Olympic Bus Bombing Ceremony


All coincidental, no doubt, but you would have thought that the ceremony designers would have plumped for the more iconic Routemaster for their little show of tacky Londonana

edit: and here's a link to the video introduction played at the start of the ceremony - complete with blokes with black rucksacks standing at bus-stops and goosestepping guardsmen

Bread and Circuses



Anyone who knows a little about the kind of fruity little clubs and belief systems popular with our ruling classes will have some sympathy with Lord Patel's reservations about the corporate-sponsored wankfest that was yesterday's Olympic handjobover ceremony...





C'mon Everybody!! Let's have a Visa™ party!!



All that choreographed veneration of flags and torches is entirely reminiscent, and not accidentally, of
Nazi Era iconography, and something much older than that

Coincidentally, as part of a personal regime to get fit enough to qualify for a visa to get the fuck out of here long before the Illuminated Fascistic Horror that will be London 2012, I walked down the length of the River Lea in East London and through the 2012 Olympic site a couple of days ago

There's a lot of building work going on and plenty of publicity material slapped up on the walls to remind passers-by, or rather not remind passers by, of the massive exercise in dissonant doublethink which has the likes of McDonalds, Coke and Visa investing heavily in sponsoring an event which purports to represent everything that they are not


Official Olympic 'Partner' logos


Not Official Olympic 'Partner' logo



Whilst in the area I checked out Hackney Marshes, home to no less than 88 full size amateur league football pitches and arguably London's most iconic monument to the supposed Olympian amateur sporting ideal - something which wasn't lost on Nike...





The fact that the Marshes are going to be smothered in delicious concrete and turned into a car park for the Olympics says it all really




Cue the Joni Mitchell...






...though comparing Hackney Marshes with Paradise might be pushing things, just a little

A splendid week for Leni Riefenstahl fans

Konnie Huq getting them out for the lads


What a cracking few days it's been for fans of Nazis, Nazi neo-pagan imagery and the works of
Leni Riefenstahl in particular

First we were treated to the sight of 600 stormcoppers recreating favourite scenes from Triumph of the Will over at Finsbury Park New Thermopylae last week

Then, a few days later, our Prime Minister hosted a summit on 'progressive (?) government' complete with a sNazi new logo

And, now, to round things off, more coppers and a few B-grade TV celebrities have spent the day running around London recreating some of the best bits from another of Leni's celebrated works...




Along with so much of the Olympics, that torch ceremony is 100% neo-pagan, Illuminated Nazi bullshit

Nazis, Fascists and members of other Illuminated fruity little clubs have historically had a hard-on for the Olympics; as the Olympics hark back to a fantasy past of greatness ...and order ...and physical and racial purity

And to illustrate my point there's a special valuable mystery prize on offer to anyone who can dig out a credible explanation for the design of the five interlocking Olympic rings which doesn't include reference to occult beliefs and fruity little clubs

Of course, people like me who point stuff like that out are the fruity ones, not the whack jobs who stage and propagate this kind of bullshit

Anyway, the coverage given to today's torch ceremony, its associated security and the efforts of protesters (genuine and CIA-sponsored) to fuck things up was on the, er, heavy side...




Kind of suspiciously heavy. I'm still trying to figure out what the core message to viewers was. Possible messages include...


- Hate China, lots
- Remember, Over the Top policing is now the New Normal
- Doublethink is fun, and not all that difficult if you give it a try


or maybe a combination of all of the above

Ginsu 2012

Now that the Millennium is safely out of the way, people with a taste for the Apocalyptic are having to cast around for a new date to get excited about.

And it’s not just End-Timers and Y2K consultants who were sad to see the back end of the last thousand years. Spare a thought for the manufacturers of 'consumer products of the future' such as the legendary Ginsu 2000 knife set, much beloved by TV Home Shopping Networks.




Ginsu 3000 just doesn’t have the same ring to it.

When the year 2000 passed we all lost something to look forward to. The benchmark date for the future is now in the past and we haven’t met Jesus and we’re not flying around strapped to bacofoil jetpacks.

Some time in the early 90’s I attended an extremely amusing talk given by someone who was ahead of the curve on this issue. After extensive study of the ancient Mayan calendar and close inspection of the engravings on the much-misunderstood sarcophagus of Pacal the Great at Palenque the lecturer concluded that our World would end not in 2000 but in 2012.




On December 21st to be precise.


He was, obviously, completely insane.

Everyone knows the 2012 London Olympics are scheduled to start on 27th July.


The Olympics Rings - A symbol of sporting excellence, healthy competition and absolutely no tie-in with bizarre neo-pagan Nazi iconography, no way



There are many reasons for someone living on the other side of the river from the 2012 site to be pissed off with the entire business but, right now, the primo cause for wanting to see someone take responsibility and dangle from a lamppost is the cost overrun thing.

One year in, and six years to go, and the estimated cost of the site has already risen from £2.2bn to £3.1bn, plus another £1bn put aside for possible future price rises (they will), plus £3-4bn of other sundry odds and sods.

Of course, seven or eight billion quid is bugger all in the national scheme of things but what’s really ticking me off about all of this is the line currently being trotted out by the people who lied through their teeth throughout the bid process…

‘Well, these projects always over run but don’t worry it will be good fun’

The bid was crooked from the very beginning and five minutes spent reading through it, as I and about four other people bothered to do, made it pretty clear that whopping over runs were anticipated. Over runs that were, ultimately, backed by London ratepayers NOT the deceitful weasels who presented the bid and promised that it would come in on budget. Seb, Ken, Tessa, Tony et al were handing out blank cheques with our names on them.

By my reckoning that constitutes premeditated fraud and Seb, Ken, Tessa and Tony should do some hard time, same as anybody who tells lies to get their hands on someone else’s money.

Maybe they could be put to work on the convict chain gangs that the government is thinking about using to build the 2012 site


Lord Thieving Twat KBE - shouldn't that shirt be stripey?


Ho ho, yes, very funny. Like that’s going to happen.

People not being held to account that is. Convict labour in East London is definitely a go-er.


Er, hello, we've come to build a stadium...


I love democracy.

It’s not the cheerful, beaming faces of all those cute, loveable primary school children dreaming of Olympic Gold that’s making me feel grumpy. It’s the thought of the cheerful, beaming faces of all those cute, loveable property developers and merchant bankers and consultants dreaming of real gold. Aren't they rich enough?

Silly question.
