Interesting how this article applies perfectly to the tactics commonly used by Hugo Chávez in Venezuela...New Scientist HITLER and Mussolini both had the ability to bend millions of people to their fascist will. Now evidence from psychology and neurology is emerging to explain how tactics like organised marching and propaganda can work to exert mass mind control.Scott Wiltermuth of Stanford University in California and colleagues have found that activities performed in unison, such as marching or dancing, increase loyalty to the group. "It makes us feel as though we're part of a larger entity, so we see the group's welfare as being as important as our own," he says...

Damn You! If you still believe Venezuela is an exemplary country, a role model because of Hugo Chavez and his Revolution. Did you read Animal Farm and 1984 by George Orwell? or The Process by Kafka? Well take the worst that happens in those books and put them all together in a blender, add some latin flavor and what you get is "La Revolución Bolivariana" (The Bolivarian Revolution).Last week a new law was imposed on Venezuela, the Law on the National Intelligence and Counterintelligence System...

A few days ago Hugo Chávez, our despotic extra-bigmouthed military ruler, the self-proclaimed owner of Venezuela's oil revenue checkbook, with which he even gives away cheap oil to poor Londoner's, whom, by the way, have a minimal wage ten times bigger than a middle class worker in Venezuela, and who also funds (illegally) the FARC's terrorits... but let's not get off the topic.A few days ago Hugo Chávez said in one of his Sunday 6 to 8 hours televised and radioed show "Alo Presidente", that in Venezuela economy is "normal". He gave an example...

[video:youtube:bqBCxKrvRSo]Although written with Africa's situation in mind, this song applies to all so called "Revolutions" in the world.

The world is full of problems and I want to write about a song; not even a new one. But this song has stirred my schizoid mind and has even constructed a nightmarish dream I had last night. A dream full of Nazis and persecution, full of fire and war and torture. A senseless dream, like most dreams seem to be, only that this one seemed even more complicated to even try to put together and make a little sense out of it.You would say that the song that has done this must have come from musicians such as Syd Garrett, Peter Gabriel or some disturbed genius musician, but that's not so. You may even think that the song is so complicated and profound, full of philosophy and meaning. But it is not. The song is called Take a picture and was written and performed by a band called Filter...

Fitna, the short movie by Geert Wilders, shows the worst of Islam, and yes, what the movie shows are no lies; radical Muslims are the way they are portrayed in the movie.But are Muslims all the same? Are they all murderers and fanatics? Before answering that, we too should ask ourselves similar questions; Are all Catholic priests pederasts and sex offenders? or, Do all nuns gamble? And the answer to all those questions is no.
