Sánchez de Lozada had hired U.S. political consultants James Carville, Stan Greenberg and Bob Shrum to advise his campaign.<br /><br />Bolivia suffered as a result. Sánchez de Lozada continued his unpopular policies after the election. <br /><br />Mass protests eventually ousted Sánchez de Lozada and brought Evo Morales to power.<br /><br />This is worth remembering given the Snowden-Bolivia-Morales-Plane headlines.Denis Nevillenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-974773076690597683.post-82568857557083573652013-07-02T23:38:42.705-04:002013-07-02T23:38:42.705-04:00Russian President Putin made a point of comparing ...Russian President Putin made a point of comparing Edward Snowden with the Soviet-era dissident Andrei Sakharov.<br /><br />Andrei Sakharov was a Soviet nuclear physicist, dissident, and human rights activist. He was renowned as the designer of the Soviet Union's thermonuclear weapons. Sakharov became concerned about the moral and political implications of his work. By courageously speaking truth to power, he became the conscience of the cold war and inspired the movement that toppled Soviet communism.<br /><br />“Sakharov abandoned his cocooned life as his country's leading physicist to risk everything in battle against the two great threats to civilization in the second half of this century: nuclear war and communist dictatorship. In the dark, bitter depths of the cold war, Sakharov's voice rang out. "A miracle occurred," Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn wrote, "when Andrei Sakharov emerged in the Soviet state, among the swarms of corrupt, venal, unprincipled intelligentsia." By the time of his death in 1989, this humble physicist had influenced the spread of democratic ideals throughout the communist world. His moral challenge to tyranny, his faith in the individual and the power of reason, his courage in the face of denunciation and, finally, house arrest — made him a hero to ordinary citizens everywhere. He embodied the role that intellectuals are called upon to play in the creation of civil society and inspired scientists working under other dictatorships, including myself in China, to become leaders in the struggle for democracy.” – Fang Lizhi, Astrophysicist, who helped inspire the Tiananmen Square demonstrationsDenis Nevillenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-974773076690597683.post-33058530824753473522013-07-02T22:55:40.325-04:002013-07-02T22:55:40.325-04:00The Bully is once again flexing his muscles and fl...The Bully is once again flexing his muscles and flaunting his ability to force countries to obey orders on command.

I am worried for him.<br /><br />It must be very lonely to have nothing except the truth, trapped in Moscow’s Sheremetyevo airport. <br /><br />Whistleblowers are profiles in courage but at what cost to themselves. <br /><br />Peter Van Buren, himself a whistleblower, considers what Snowden might be going through@ http://www.tomdispatch.com/blog/175719/<br /><br />I wonder what support his mother and father are receiving. <br /><br />Quiet men with white collars, men without chests, aim to crush Edward Snowden and anyone who dissents.<br /><br />“I live in the Managerial Age, in a world of “Admin.” The greatest evil is not now done in those sordid “dens of crime” that Dickens loved to paint. It is not done even in concentration camps and labour camps. In those we see its final result. But it is conceived and ordered (moved, seconded, carried, and minuted) in clean, carpeted, warmed, and well-lighted offices, by quiet men with white collars and cut fingernails and smooth-shaven cheeks who do not need to raise their voice.

Remember,...Edward Snowden has already done so much. Remember, it's not about him, although I do wish him safe harbor and freedom. Rest assured that anything the PTB does to him will come back to bite them on the ass. Did anyone really think the PTB would make life easy for him? Snowden knew they wouldn't, yet he was still willing to take them on by shining a glaring spotlight on their dark secrets, and he's not done yet. The sad and discouraging part is that he is willing to do all this, and there are people who are afraid to even boycott the Duopoly by changing their party registration to a third party or independent. Can't we agree to send a message by doing so? Apparently not. <br /><br />At the very least Snowden has opened legal doors both domestically and internationally, but I think he has initiated something even bigger. His snowball is gaining momentum and will be turning into an avalanche. Frankly, I don't understand some of the doom and gloom. Where would be be if Snowden HADN'T exposed these secrets? Thankfully, there is more to come. <br /><br />We should take advantage of this golden opportunity that Snowden has given us and voice our support. We should also try to find common ground with others to unite as Americans and world citizens. <br /><br />Snowden has many new friends. Even Steve Wozniak has come out publicly in strong support and he has connections and big bucks.

Check out Operation Charly for a more or less recent example.<br /><br />Were I in a tight spot, given my druthers and they wouldn't be very good druthers, I'd strike a deal with Putin, on the condition I wouldn't have to betray my country, before I'd do a deal with our 'white shoes'.

But, is it not better to spend unknowable time in an airport center, which similar set up has housed many other refugees in the past, than go back to the U.S. where he will really be entombed and silenced? I am sure money will be available from the public (I would be willing to contribute) to cover his present expenses if necessary.<br />It is an exposure of the gutless behavior of many so called liberal<br />countries who don't behave that way when push comes to shove and Biden<br />whispers dire threats in their ears. And I don't trust Russia to take over<br />his care following recent warnings about not irritating the U.S.<br /> Even Assange's situation is not clear nor are his political ambitions in Australia.<br />This has been a source of support for Snowden but is no longer reliable.<br />We will have to bide our time and watch what is happening more closely. At least Snowden accomplished a great deal so far to expose the true<br />motivations of the U.S. And Manning also opened closed doors. Unfortunately,there is always a terrible price to be paid by those who expose corruption and it is now up to the rest of the people in the U.S. who are disturbed enough to begin their fight for change. We at Sardonicky can only continue<br />to say what is in our hearts and minds and hope it reverberates.<br />It is also helpful to support each other by validating our common fears and worries and most of all, to support a valiant courageous soul like Karen, who is extremely effective in her contributions to the N.Y. Times and its readers and columnists. Wish she was more widely quoted. She also inspires me to contribute comments to various columnists and publications alongside <br />many other excellent and concerned citizens. I often report the differences between the health care coverage of Canada vs. the U.S. which seems to have some positive response.<br /><br />I always appreciate your contributions Jay, especially from the more clear air of Ottawa. Hopefully, the air will become clearer before long in the<br />next Canadian election.<br />Happy Fourth of July to our American friends as we finish celebrating Canada Day this past week-end.

This same story plays out over and over: Just when you get your spirits lifted, they get dashed to smithereens again. First there's a flurry of support and then just as suddenly it evaporates. Strong words, blasting the United States, from Hong Kong, Ecuador, Venezuela, Germany, France, others... and then silence. Even Putin seems to have backed off. Biden phones Correa and Ecuador demures. In the beginning we assumed Snowden was headed for Ecuador. So, what happened? Lots of big talk but no action. When the time comes to act, nobody stands up against the US. <br /><br />Meanwhile, we're ignoring Bradley Manning! If Snowden deserves consideration for hero status, surely Manning does too. After all, he got the ball rolling in the first place. But nobody is even talking about the poor guy, being smothered in what amounts to a secret trial.<br /><br />Jeez, this whole thing is really awful.spreadoptionnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-974773076690597683.post-50968692664474172252013-07-02T12:37:15.811-04:002013-07-02T12:37:15.811-04:00Yeah, it looks like Snowden has run out his string...Yeah, it looks like Snowden has run out his string.

Poland and India have today each rejected Snowden’s request for asylum, the latter taking the opportunity to voice a defense of the NSA.<br /><br />I thought President Nicola Maduro, who was in Moscow for a gas exporters meeting, might give Snowden a lift back to Venezuela. Maduro had previously offered asylum to Snowden. Maduro has already left Moscow, but apparently without Snowden. Evo Morales of Bolivia is also sympathetic and was at the same meeting; but I doubt he travels in a private jet. <br /><br />With each passing day Snowden becomes more vulnerable, a man with a country he dare not return to and a diminishing number of alternatives.<br /><br />What consolation do we have for Snowden? Maybe members of the UN will take a moment to send him a note on fancy paper with a proverb from somewhere that reminds us never to expect gratitude from our children, our students, our bosses or other people we go out of our way to help at great cost to ourselves?Jay–Ottawahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10360356126450612113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-974773076690597683.post-22911028481386128052013-07-02T10:41:41.241-04:002013-07-02T10:41:41.241-04:00Some arguable (but not really) premises.

Google’s first offering for a definition: <br />incensed<br />1. to perfume with incense or a similar fragrance: “the aroma of cannabis incensed the air”<br />2. to make very angry: “incensed by the accusations”<br /> <br />Whatever. Hillary Clinton got out of town just in time. Now it falls to luckless ex-Senator John Kerry, our shiny new Secretary of State, simultaneously to incense (definitions 1 & 2) the entire world’s diplomatic corps with smoke while assuring them they have no reason to be incensed (definition 2) at Uncle Sam for bugging every embassy in sight, in addition to foreign countries’ email, VoIC, mobile communications, contact webs, record of internet habits as well as their private corner in ‘The Cloud.’ <br /><br />Last week Kerry, tracking Obama’s bob and weave, spent time dismissing Edward Snowden and minimizing the import of his documentation. That only further incensed foreign leaders, who weren’t winking any more.<br /><br />Prism and related programs are the top story in this morning’s digital edition of “Le Monde.” The headline: “Espionnage: Obama promises to furnish Europeans ‘all the data.’” <br />http://www.lemonde.fr/technologies/article/2013/06/30/espionnage-la-nsa-visait-la-france-l-italie-et-la-grece_3439237_651865.html#xtor=EPR-32280229-%5BNL_Titresdujour%5D-20130701-%5Btitres%5D<br /><br />Yeah, right. Were his fingers crossed when he promised them "all the data"? Later the bureaucrats clarified that explanations would be provided, diplomat to diplomat behind closed doors. <br /><br />If Obama still wants to keep his original promise, he should assign the task to Snowden, thereby solving two problems at once. Now it’s up to Kerry and his State Department wordsmiths to haul this Administration out of a diplomatic pit of its own making. There will be consequences among our allies. Was a blowback by allies ever contemplated at the planning stage before the NSA decided to make allies “targets for attack." <br /><br />Not only are Europeans demanding explanations about the bugging, they’re calling for an end “immédiatement” (François Hollande) to the NSA’s continued suck up and storage of their communications. One more impetus behind the uncool diplomatic behavior of European officials could be that millions of average Europeans are much more incensed over the loss of their privacy than are Americans.<br /><br />Kerry patronizes Europeans by reminding them that nations have always spied on each other, whether friends or enemies. “Every country in the world is involved with international dealings, with national security, and conducts numerous programs devoted to protecting national security and [collecting] all kinds of data that might contribute to it. All I know is, this is not out of the ordinary for a great number of countries.”<br /><br />The Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP), an accord negotiated behind closed doors by the White House and the European Commission, once was a slam dunk trade pact to be signed this summer. After the revelations about American spying, maybe not. <br /><br />Le Monde: “Germany had concluded that the US stance would be unacceptable and worthy of a cold war if these revelations prove to be true, and that that would effectively place in danger negotiations about a transatlantic free trade deal.”<br /><br />The NSA’s bugging of European allies does not improve American security; it imperils our security. The NSA’s spying may bring about deep distrust within the NATO Alliance. It has already poisoned the well with our European cousins and other partners around the world.Jay–Ottawahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10360356126450612113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-974773076690597683.post-59609409978061984242013-07-01T15:08:05.537-04:002013-07-01T15:08:05.537-04:00Hello there, Ostrakon12/ -b in ca.
Just trying t...Hello there, Ostrakon12/ -b in ca. <br /><br />Just trying to place you correctly in these comments. Are you the Anonymous who thinks that all men are watching porn all day, even while writing comments to Sardonicky? I was trying to figure out why you referenced Snowden's pole dancing girlfriend as an explanation of why he wouldn't waste his time reading Sardonicky or NYT comments, just Glenn Greenwald. <br /><br />It sounds like you are suggesting that men don't have a need to relate to others in other than a sexual manner, and that someone like Edward Snowden would not be interested in discovering in the comments if others shared their political opinions or views. Nor would he be interested in making comments I guess - too busy with porn and poledancing. <br /><br />So are you also the Anonymous who commented that she tried to help Karen land some important gig at one time? If so, if I was Karen, I surely wouldn't use you as a reference. Your back-handed compliments and underlying negativity and dark energy are quite toxic. I just thought I'd mention that since you believe in balancing praise and criticism. BTW, you have an extraordinary personality and superior intelligence. <br /><br />I'm surely glad that we now have a name to go with your comments so we can skip over those if we wish, just as you do with Pearl's. You are the Anonymous one that said that, right? I happen to have a lot of respect for Pearl and always enjoy reading her comments and I never felt poisoned after I read hers. Hardships can make us better or bitter. It's our choice. <br /><br />Sorry if anything I said pertained to the other Anonymous. You sounded like one and the same person to me.CitiZennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-974773076690597683.post-22111367540260986422013-07-01T14:07:04.530-04:002013-07-01T14:07:04.530-04:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-974773076690597683.post-11965114641328763912013-07-01T13:49:50.478-04:002013-07-01T13:49:50.478-04:00I haven't seen Israel mentioned in the Snowden...I haven't seen Israel mentioned in the Snowden documents that the newspapers have published.
