The Hypocrisy and the Dirty Laundry Spread on the World Stage... The U.N.


While reading I encountered a new word... 
                                                                                   yesterday...

Words and their etymology have always fascinated me... 
I get amused by the history of words and their evolution... It makes me happy and at the same time entertains me...  
A glass of vodka with word origins and etymology is magically scandalous way to pass the time and simultaneously learn new methods of surviving the daily barrage of news... and madness.
Yesterday, while reading I encountered a "new" word, new at least to me... "infotainment..." A hybrid of information and entertainment... a new compound word... 

The new word is enchantingly charming... and opened up new windows of magical wizardry... in my mind... 
I had always been attracted by the sociopolitical news... and the reporters had entertained me often... so the combination of information and entertainment is not new to me... but the realization that I am being entertained while being informed shed a new light on my habit... on my way of life... 
Acually, I realized that Jon Stewart and Jimmy Kimmel and Fox's Tucker Carlson and Paul Begala on the CNN and Bill O'Reilly in his scandalous demise all are as sexy as the other... and news worthy and informative...
In the electronic age... we are entertained on line... we are informed on line... and we meet each other on line...
Actually I just know you on line... 
Few months ago commenteriat caught my imagination... the pundits who just comment on the news and earn a living is always funny to me... but comments in the fashion of Soviet "secretariat" was amusing for me...
...And now I have infotainment to play with...
But,
Before infotainment and commenteriat there was bromance... and see how bromance is explained in Wikipedia...
bromance is a close, emotionally intense, non-sexual bond between two men. It is an exceptionally tight affectionalhomosocial male bonding relationship exceeding that of usual friendship, and is distinguished by a particularly high level of emotional intimacy. The emergence of the concept since the beginning of the 21st century has been seen as reflecting a change in societal perception and interest in the theme,  with an increasing openness of western society in the twenty-first century to reconsider gender, sexuality, and exclusivity constraints... and I am quite amused to suggest that some leaders in the world stage... are in a bromance... 
Interesting concept... and quite Freudian too...

Insults and threats... and Hypocrisy... on the World Stage at the UN...

The World Hypocrisy Award... 
                          or Hypocrisy Without Borders...
The word hypocrisy is derived from the Latin word hypocrita  meaning stage actor... and the Latin word is derived from the Greek hypokritēs meaning an actor or a pretender...
But, 
They insult each other...
North Korea's leader Kim Jong-un makes a statement regarding U.S. President Donald Trump's speech at the UN General Assembly in a photo released by the Korean Central News Agency in Pyongyang Friday.  UN-ASSEMBLY/TRUMP          Is he the "madman"... ?                Is he the "dotard"...?
The "dotard" initiates...
The Rocket Man… and the rest of the insults...and threats...
The president threatened that the United States would be forced to "totally destroy" North Korea, if the United States or its allies are "forced to defend" themselves against the regime.

Kim Jong Un of North Korea, who is obviously a madman who doesn't mind starving or killing his people, will be tested like never before!

"madman... will be tested like never before".


The "madman" reciprocates in kind... and declares...
But, far from making remarks of any persuasive power that can be viewed to be helpful to defusing tension, he made unprecedented rude nonsense one has never heard from any of his predecessors.
A frightened dog barks louder. ……………………………………...
His remarks remind me of such words as “political layman” and “political heretic” which were in vogue in reference to Trump during his presidential election campaign.
…………………….
I will surely and definitely tame the mentally deranged U.S. dotard with fire.


Indeed these two are in a bromance never seen before...

******************************************************
At the world stage of UN... the executives of the global 1% are competing who will win the newly established World Hypocrisy Award...
...And Here are the Finalists...

1. The U.S. of America...
The U.S. is promoting PEACE by providing Saudi Arabia arms to bomb Yemen... where civilian deaths are rising and the people are starving... The U.N. anticipates the world's largest humanitarian crisis in recent history...
The U.S. wants to establish peace but also wants to destroy North Korea... and want regime change in Venezuela... wants to choke Cuba and Iran... 
The U.S. is bombing in Syria and in Iraq and in Afghanistan... so as to establish peace in the Middle East... and attempting to mediate in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict by siding with the Israeli camouflage apartheid democracy... 
In essence the U.S. is waging several wars... aiding-abetting in others ... and threatening countries like North Korea and Iran and Venezuela and Cuba... ALL IN THE NAME OF PEACE...
Also the re-emergence of internal racist conflict has marred the democratic norms of the society... the White Supremacists are demanding their share of the racist pie... and some police are claiming that they "only kill blacks..." and other police are chanting on the streets of St. Louis the White Supremacist chant... "whose streets... Our Streets..."

2. Russia has invaded Ukraine... annexed Crimea and just this week conducted a huge military "game" in Europe in order to threaten its neighbours... like Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania...
Russia is governed by an apparatchik oligarchic despotic horde without any respect for human rights and freedoms... and this horde is waging wars in Syria and attempting to destabilize the Western style European and American "democracies..."
Opposition leaders have been killed regularly... and some have just disappeared or rotting in prison...
Putin is nostalgic to the Soviet-Stalinist decades... and wants its empire back...

3. Turkey is waging wars on its minorities... The Kurds, Alevie Arabs, Pontic Greeks, Armenians and Yezidies... have no rights in Turkey... Its president, Erdogan is attempting to establish an Islamic despotic fascistic autocracy... Turkey recently revised its textbooks...
Turkey's schools have begun the new academic year with a controversial curriculum that leaves out the theory of evolution and brings in the concept of jihad.
For Turkey's Islamist-rooted government, the idea is for a new "education of values".
Critics have denounced new textbooks as "sexist" and "anti-scientific", and complain of a major blow to secular education.
"By embedding a jihadist education of values, they try to plague the brains of our little children, with the same understanding that transforms the Middle East into a bloodbath," said 

Thousands of oppositionist politicians are jailed... Many reporters are imprisoned... newspapers are closed... and the Islamic fascists are parading the streets similar to the White Supremacists - KKK in America...
Erdogan's regime is brutally suppressing all dissent... even in the U.S. and Germany...

Erdogan Security Forces Launch ‘Brutal Attack’ on Washington Protesters, Officials Say...

turkeyprotestTurkish guards attack demonstrators in Washington D.C. - kick and punch them... and yesterday they kicked and punched kurdish demonstrators in New York...
A protester is removed from a New York room during a speech by Turkey's President Recep Tayyip ErdoganViolence erupted at a New York hotel after protesters heckled a speech by Turkey's President Recep Tayyip Erdogan with chants of "terrorist".
Mr Erdogan was addressing supporters in Turkish at the Marriott Marquis Hotel in Times Square when he was interrupted by several demonstrators.

"You're a terrorist, get out of my country," one protester shouted before he was punched and dragged away.
Maybe just by coincidence... Yesterday Erdogan and Trump were also in a bromance at the world stage... They complemented each other lavishly... and promised "lasting friendship..."
The Islamist fascist, Erdogan,  and the leader deriding "Radical Islamic terrorism..." were shaking hands and proclaiming friendship...
Hypocrisy has no limits. after all... !
4. Myanmar-Burma...
Ang San Suu Kyi is not attending the U.N. this year... because she has "better" things to do at home... She is on an ethnic cleansing mission and wants to get rid of the Rohingyas once and for all... 
The Myanmar-Burma military is brutally murdering and killing Rohingyas and burning their villages... more than thousands [more than 400 000] have crossed into Bangladesh... 
Aung San Suu Kyi was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize... But she is now on a mission of ethnic cleansing...
"She's no longer a peace campaigner, she's evolved and transitioned into a full-time politician,"
Amnesty International accused Suu Kyi and her government of "burying their heads in the sand over the horrors unfolding in Rakhine State."
She addressed the people this week and...
"At times, her speech amounted to little more than a mix of untruths and victim blaming," said James Gomez, Amnesty International's Regional Director for Southeast Asia and the Pacific.

With nearly half of Myanmar’s Rohingya Muslim population having fled the country in the past three weeks, Aung San Suu Kyi addressed the crisis publicly for the first time — and called it a mystery...
"We want to find out why this exodus is happening," Suu Kyi, the leader of Myanmar's governing party, said Tuesday in a nationally televised speech from the capital, Naypyidaw.
Penny Green, a professor of law at Queen Mary University of London who studies the Rohingya conflict, called out Suu Kyi's connection of the Rohingya to the ARSA militant group as behavior common among those targeting an ethnic group.
"She (Suu Kyi) chooses to use the word in relation to a terrorist group, that means that is the only identity that Rohingya will be attached to, from her perspective and she hopes from the international perspective," Green said.
Green said Suu Kyi's speech was "disingenuous" and "filled with underlying denials" that she said was "typical of the way in which state criminals behave."
