"Little Brown Men Are Only Objects for Us."

December 20, 2010 at 11:42 A.M. "Errors" inserted and corrected. I cannot say how many more essays were disfigured overnight, after a weekend of computer warfare aimed against my writings from Trenton's government agencies. ("Manifesto for the Unfinished American Revolution.")

October 17, 2010 at 8:24 A.M. "Error" inserted and corrected.

"Little brown men are only objects for us. They are too remote from us to be realized as they exist in their inwardness." -- William James. (I am quoting from memory.)

Mark Mazzetti & Eric Schmidt, "C.I.A. Intensifies Drone Campaign Within Pakistan," in The New York Times, September 28, 2010, at p. A1. (Pakistan intelligence agency and government oppose and protest violations of their territorial integrity by U.S. drone attacks which have doubled in 2010.)

"Yes," Chomsky writes, "[the robot bombs in Pakistan] are also interesting. They tell us a lot about American ideology. The drone attacks are not secret."

Our "secret" war in Pakistan and, soon, "secret" forays into India, are only "secret" to U.S. media. This is similar to my situation which, I have reason to believe, is gathering international media attention. Despite the fact that I live in America's media center, New York, no one in the U.S. has heard of this decade-long censorship and torture effort from New Jersey. ("What is it like to be censored?" and "What is it like to be plagiarized?")

American media silence about embarassing matters to the U.S. government is reflective of a partnership between government and the so-called fifth estate that makes a mockery of an "independent" U.S. media. With a few exceptions, there is no "independent media" in America. Time for more "error" insertions?

Another "error" was, in fact, inserted and corrected in the foregoing paragraph. (Soon: "Debbie Poritz Likes the Ladies!" and "Jennifer Velez is a 'Dyke Magnet!'")

"The Pakistani population is overwhelmingly opposed to them, [robot bombs,] and so are the public figures. They publicly say, 'You've got to stop this, can't allow it.' It's justified here on the grounds that the Pakistani leadership secretly agrees."

The Cuban-American leadership, I believe, has privately called for censorship and tortures directed against me, including cybercrimes. This may encompass others to be targeted, as well, including children and old people if necessary. This strategy will be denied publicly. ("Does Senator Menendez Have Mafia Friends?" and "Miami's Cubanoids Protest Against Peace!")

" ... fortunately, for us, Pakistan is so dictatorial that they don't have to pay attention to their population. [We orchestrate or manufacture public opinion, then claim that we are "listening to the people."] That's our position. So if the country is a brutal dictatorship, it's great, because then the leaders can secretly agree to what we're doing and disregard their populations, which is likely 95 percent opposed to it. That's considered a good thing. That's one column in the newspaper." (emphasis added!)

Dictators are "good" (i.e., "authoritarian" and not "dictatorial" or "totalitarian") if they accept Washington's instructions. Dictators are evil only when they disagree with Washington. We are often dictatorial -- though usually through "alternative agents" (that is, third parties) -- even as our media is docile and obedient to the wishes of the corporate boardroom. ("Fidel Castro's 'History Will Absolve Me'" and "Havana Nights and C.I.A. Tapes.")

Dozens of vicious insults and lies are disseminated about me on a daily basis. This has been true for many years. I expect the process to continue even though I speak very rarely to strangers. I have struggled to define myself, exclusively on-line at these blogs. Perhaps this is one reason why the authorities seek to suppress, deface, censor, or destroy my writings. ("How Censorship Works in America.")

"Dr." Tuchin's role in such efforts against me and others is difficult to determine. I suspect that Tuchin works for some quasi-governmental entities, officially or unofficially. I cannot say how many other victims of Tuchin's methods have been destroyed or permanently harmed by this monster. ("Terry Tuchin, Diana Lisa Riccioli, and New Jersey's Agency of Torture" and "An Open Letter to My Torturers in New Jersey, Terry Tuchin and Diana Lisa Riccioli.")

My adventures on-line, which have been witnessed by many persons in the world, have been eye-opening for dissidents in Cuba and elsewhere, like China -- dissidents who struggle to believe in America's promise of freedom. Freedom of speech under the U.S. Constitution -- for those of us who are not wealthy media elites -- may only be a vague and distant hope. Mysteriously, the American news media has never heard of me. ("How Censorship Works in America.")

The cable signal to my computer is blocked on a regular basis. "Freedom of expression" is not a hope that can be called "realistic" in today's political climate. ("Psychological Torture in the American Legal System" and "America's Unethical Medical Torturers.")

Naturally, foreign people are not counted as visitors to my sites because -- to the U.S. government, maybe -- they are not really persons. Many young people in Cuba may wonder why they are not registered here at blogger. This is the only reason.

I am not regarded as a person with legal rights. Hence, computer crimes against me continue every day. I do not count. You do not count. Dick Cheney counts. Perhaps, Barack Obama counts -- as long as he remains within certain boundaries of "sound policy," that is, defending what Chomsky calls: "imperialism." You decide whether you agree with Chomsky on this issue of U.S. imperialism. Every "error" inserted in these writings amounts to taking a dump on the American flag which is why I am upset by the unpunished censorship and computer crimes against me:

" ... we're promoting democracy [in Pakistan.] Intellectuals have to be able to keep these contradictory [realities] in mind -- it's what Orwell called 'doublespeak,' the ability to have two contradictory ideas in mind and believe both of them."

We are promoting democracy for ordinary Pakistanis whom we are killing, indiscriminately, with drone weapons in the hope of "getting" Taliban targets. Meanwhile, we are losing both Afghanistan and most Pakistani support among ordinary people. The way to promote democracy, mind you, is to kill people. This policy will make perfect sense to Mr. Wolfowitz, perhaps. ("John Rawls and Justice.")

We are "for" freedom of speech in the world. We are also censoring and suppressing the political writings of a tortured American dissident, me. Furthermore, we will continue to commit these crimes, very publicly -- so that government would, clearly, have to be involved in these actions -- while denying, publicly, that we are doing this censoring which everyone can see, even if officials privately admit to the crimes. No one believes New Jersey's lies. ("Freedom for Mumia Abu-Jamal.")

In the words of Harold Pinter: "It is not happening, even when it is happening, it is not happening." Do you speak of "lies," gentlemen? ("On Bullshit" and "U.S. Courts Must Not Condone Torture.")

"That's almost a definition of the [American] intellectual's culture. [The New York Review of Books is against censorship and plagiarism, the same publication does not deny that my review of "Brideshead Revisited" was plagiarized in the pages of the NYRB.] This is a perfect example of [doublethink.]" ("What is it like to be plagiarized?" and "How Censorship Works in America.")

No one is counting or concerned about the Pakistani victims, of course, because they are "little brown people" who have not attended Columbia University. Perhaps some of these persons are lesbians in which case trendy Upper-West-Side Manhattanites will be interested, briefly, in their murder. Otherwise, "who cares?" -- as Miami's Cuban-American Right-wingers say. ("Is Senator Bob 'For' Human Rights?" and "Miami's Cubanazos Pose a Threat to National Security!" then "American Hypocrisy and Luis Posada Carriles.")

"So yes, the bombing is fine, because secretly the [Pakistani] leadership agrees, [do they have a choice?] even though they have to tell the population they are against it because the population is overwhelmingly opposed. That's good. That shows Pakistan is improving."

Pakistan's military in my opinion and in the opinion of many observers is assisting the Taliban and is already preparing for our departure. The government of this nuclear power is weakened by its relationship with us. Pakistan is (wisely) seeking other partners in the world, while (publicly) continuing to support our efforts. ("The Other Shoe Dropped.")

Stuart Rabner has to pretend, publicly, that he is against censorship. Governor Christie will seek to use my critique of the Democrat-mafia machine for his political purposes, even as he denies my claims concerning incompetence in the legal system, while both men will also deny my claims about the state's sold-out political and judicial system(s) -- claims based on Christie's own public statements and overwhelming research concerning New Jersey's cancerous "culture of corruption." These officials must believe their own lies as they tell them to the public. ("U.S. Attorney Battles New Jersey's Culture of Corruption" and "Law and Ethics in the Soprano State.")

Privately, Rabner, Christie, and Bob Menendez will encourage censorship and "touchless torture" techniques to be used against me and others close to me. There is no other way that such censorship could take place, publicly, for so many years. This will also be denied publicly. This spectacle of public criminality illustrates the hypocrisy we live with in America and the hypocritical "ethics" of my self-described "superiors." Did I mention that the violations of law take place PUBLICLY? ("Is America's Legal Ethics a Lie?" and "Legal Ethics Today.")
