Go away Wee Willie Weenus

Isaiah's THE WORLD TODAY JUST NUTS "Pro-War Munchkin Mila"


mila22


She really is something, isn't she?  Spitting on Palestinians, sleeping with Ashton when he was still with Demi, voicing that door mat Meg on FAMILY GUY (the character everyone pisses on).  


There's nothing worth praising there.


She's the Will Smith of her height division.


Wee Willie Wenus has found out that life does not just go on.  Read this PEOPLE article for the status of his projects. 


Remember the idiot Matthew Yglesias?  He championed the Iraq War?  Typical toxic male.  And, typical toxic male, he's whining on Twitter that everyone loves Will Smith (no, we don't) and that people just need to make movies with him (no they don't).


What Will did to Chris was outrageous.


But what little Matty doesn't understand is that what Will did to the industry was outrageous.  All last week, people were calling C.I. and stopping by to talk to her.  Directors, actors, producers, agents.  They were outraged by what he did.  


C.I. said she'd end it Thursday, Will's defense, if he hadn't stopped making excuses.  I wondered about that and how she could be so sure.  Then she did the Thursday snapshot where she flipped the script and showed us all what she had been talking about.  And, yes, it shut Will down.  Even his publicist areed that they couldn't continue the 'it was his wife!' defense -- not when, as C.I. noted, Emmett Till and other Black men have been killed to protect the so-called honor of a woman.  Chris Rock was just the latest Black man that some were insisting deserved violence and tried to use a woman to justify the violence.  Will could continue his nonsense or he could stop hurting our race.  


Now it's the industry's turn to address Will.  He took their most important night of the year and turned it into a disgrace.  That's not going to be forgotten.  And when he does work again, he may find that hias asking price has fallen because no one really needs him -- he's over 50 and trying to be an action star.  Even if he hadn't imploded at the Oscars, he was always going to be lookng as ridiculous as Sylvester Stallone after he hit 50 and had one bomb after another from 1996 forward until 2009 or so.  Will's old and he's old hat and the largest audience for action films is teenage boys.  Will's like their grandpa's age.



"Iraq snapshot" (THE COMMON ILLS):

Monday, April 4, 2022.  As the political stalemate continues in Iraq, Ayad Allawi is hospitalized, Julian Assange gets another court date and much more.


Over the weekend a video from BREAKTHROUGH NEWS almost made it up at this site.  Almost.  The host listed a number of ongoing wars in her opening.  She did not list Iraq.  I believe she even listed the Afghanistan War -- a war that US forces are supposedly out of -- but she didn't list Iraq.


This is the "Iraw dnapshot" and while vatrious people are willng to betray Iraq, I'm not.  US troops remain on the ground in Iraq, the war there continues.  This woman has a history of getting Iraq wrong.  Over and over.  And now she can't even list it as an ongoing war?  


No, I'll stand with the people of Iraq, thank you.


We are read -- and cited -- in Iraq (including regularly by one Iraqi newspaper).  I'm not going to betray those human beings with a video that erases them and treats them as though they are nothing.


As though they dont even matter.  


MEHR reports:


An Iraqi security source announced that an explosion had taken place in the path of a US convoy in Saladin province in northern Iraq.

The convoy was carrying logistics belonging to the US-led international coalition.


But, hey, BREAKTHROUGH NEWS says nothing to see here, right?  Over the weekend, WCBS reported:

Staffers at a New Jersey school helped a soldier surprise his mom.

Sgt. Jake Pletsch had been stationed in Iraq since March 2021, but he got home a month earlier than expected.

His sister and staff at George White Middle School in Hillsdale staged a “Lost and Found Day.”


Again, that war continues and the suffering of the Iraqi people contiues.  How sad that a supposed independnt outlet wants to render them invisible.

Ayad allawi.  Social media has him in the hospital with his condition deteriorating..  Allawi was the man who was supposed to be prime minister in 2010.  Iraqis were tired of the divisions and wanted a united front.  That's whythey backed the bran new party Iraqiya which had a place for everyone, regardless of sect, regardless of gender, regardless of divisions.  It wasn't just lip service.  They had Shiites and Sunnis.  They had women in important roles.  It was a rejection of the fundamentalism that the US had imposed upon them.


And Allawi should be prime minister.  But Nouri, the incumbent, would not allow it to happen.  Nouri's loss came as a surprise to some.  He haede bribed ahead of the election -- heavily bribed.  Certainly NPR was susprised since they put Quil Lawrence on air less than 48 hours after voting and Quil declared a big win for Nouri.  There was no big win when the votes were counted, not for Nouri.


And he refused to step down.  That was something Gen Ray Odierno had warned of -- then the top US commander in Iraq.  Then-US Ambassador Chirs Pig-Pen Hill, roused himself from his daily naps long enough to insist that wouldn't happen and, besides, Nouri would win.  Chris was wrong on both counts.  


Eight months of a political stalemeate followed.  Despite the US government originally insisting that the will of the Iraqi people would be followed, the US went back on that.  Then-Vice President Joe Biden would oversee The Erbil Agreement, a contract that overturned the vote and gave Nouri a second term.  


Joe would insist to Allawi's face that this was good because it guaranteed that Allawi would be over national secuirty (among other things).  When the Parliament finally met to name a president and to designate a prime minister, Allawyi's people walked out as Nouri immediately made indications he would not honor the contract.


Barack Obama himself then called Allawi and implored him to get his MPs back into the Parliament, he promised that the contract had the full backing of the US government.  It would be enforced.


It wasn't.  That was November.  By January, Nouri's spokesperson (who would later flee the country when Nouri turned on him) insisted that the contract was illegal (it probably was) and NOuri would not be bound by it.


Nouri would use it to get his second term and then he would discard it.


Iraq could have moved forward on a mission of uniting further and leaving the violent divisions behind.  


But Joe and Barack saw to it that didn't happen.


Now, as Iraq is once again in the midst of another political stalemate, an important voice is side-lined and may be about to pass away.  


At a time when Iraq really needs him.


Though Iraq held elections October 10th, Iraq still doesn't have a new prime minister -- they don't even have a prime minister-designate.  Moqtada al-Sadr wants that person to be his cousin but the cleric and cult leader has failed for months not to form a large enough coalition for a new government.  He hasn't even been able to see his nominee for president (actually nominees -- the first was struck down by the Iraqi court) be confirmed -- which is actually the step required before you can even move on to the topic of prime minister.


Last week, Moqtada finally announced he was going to step away for forty days to see if anyone else could form a government.  The KDP and the Sunnis supporting Moqtada immediately stated that they would remain firm with Moqtada.


Well . . .


Their leaders said that.  The goal now is for opposing groups to try to peel away that support.  In the past that hasn't been difficult.  Who was it that mastered peeling away support?  Getting members to step away from their leaders?


Oh, Nouri.


Nouri al-Maliki, former prime minister and forever thug.  Two terms as prime minister -- elected neither time.  First time 2006 and he was supported by Bully Boy Bush due to the infamous CIA profile on him which found his motivating force was paranoia which, the CIA believed, could be used to manipulate and control him.  In 2010, the voters tried to kick him out of office but the US government wanted him to remain prime minister.  So Joe Biden oversaw the negotiations of The Erbil Agreement which tossed aside the votes and gave Nouri a second term.  President Barack Obama had put Joe in charge of Iraq and -- like an Academy Award Board Governor -- when a test came up, Joe failed.  


The second term led to the rise of ISIS in Iraq.

Baria Alamuddin (ARAB NEWS) offers:


Perhaps the most detested man in Iraq, former Prime Minister Nouri Al-Maliki, has exploited the deadlock to insist that his faction must be part of any future “consensus” government — even though the leader of the largest faction, Moqtada Al-Sadr, has insisted on Maliki’s exclusion because of the numerous catastrophes he has inflicted upon Iraq at the bidding of Iran and sectarian militants. Sadr told Maliki and Hashd leaders: “I will not reach consensus with you. Consensus means putting an end to the country… What you describe as political deadlock is better than agreeing with you and dividing the cake with you.” Nevertheless, the result is likely to be indefinite deadlock.










Joe Biden has done so much damage to Iraq.



 He does a great deal of damage period.  He continues to persecute Julian Assange because Julian carried out the 'crime' of journalism.  Joe, if you haven't noticed, doesn't care for journalists or journalism ("he's a real son of a bitch," for example).  Julian exposed US War Crimes in Iraq and Joe wants to punish him for reporting on that.  


Lily Madric reports:


      The UK’s Westminster Magistrate’s Court has set a hearing for April 20 to authorize the extradition of WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange to the United States, where he is accused of espionage and could face up to 175 years in prison. for the publication of classified official documents.

“The Westminster Magistrate’s Court has set the hearing to issue the extradition order for Julian Assange to the United States for Wednesday, April 20,” WikiLeaks itself explained in a message posted on Twitter.

“The order will then go to (British Home Secretary Priti) Patel for approval. Assange’s defense will be able to present allegations to Patel” until May 18, the organization added.

This week's episode of THE THING ABOUT PAM

I hope you're watching THE THING ABOUT PAM on NBC.  Ruth and I are covering it.  Episode four (of the six episode limited series) aired Tuesday night.


If I ever felt sorry for Leah Askey, the prosecutor, or thought she was just an idiot, episode four made it clear.  Pam, determined to keep Russ in prison (for the murder Pam carried out), Pam invents another new lie: She and Betsy were lovers and Russ knew and that led him to kill his wife.


Now we see Leah hear the lie and believe it and so does police detective McCarrick but the assistant sees through it and points out how many lies Pam is telling.  


Okay, at this point, Leah can still just be seen as an idiot.


But in the new trial?  And then after Leah loses and Russ is set free?  


Joel, Russ' attorney, visits Leah and tells her that they have evidence that Leah did not have and if she plans to charge Pam for the murder, they'd be happy to turn it over.  Leah doesn't want it.


And then she picks up the phone after he leaves and orders all evidence in the case of Betsy's murder destroyed.  She knowingly destroyed the evidence and did so after her case fell apart.


Corrupt as hell.  Russ spent years in jail.


Remember that this is based on a true story.  Outrageous.  Leah Askey should have gone to prison.  Pam, yes.  A murderer.  But Leah abused the system and gamed the system and did so while being a representative of the government.  An innocent man went to prison because of Leah.  She should be behind bars. 


"Iraq snapshot" (THE COMMON ILLS):

 Wednesday, March 30, 2022.  Another MOqtada failure in Iraq as Whoopi Golberg continues to conduct herself in an unethical manner.


We're back on Will Smith's assaulting Chris Rock at the Academy Awards.  I hope we'll be off soon.  We're gong to note Jimmy Dore and we're going to note Betty and then I'm gong to write about whoopi Goldber who needs to learn to shut her damn mouth.  That's why I'm covering it again.  I do think it's worth covering.  I'm glad it's being covered.  But I did not plan to do three days worth here.


I don't approve of people who break the rules.  That's not Will, he's a psychopath who needs to be punisehd.  But I believe we've made that point here.  I'm referring to Whoopi Goldberg who has her own actions this week to apologize for and whose actions have been highly unethical.


First up, Jimmy Dore.



It's an important point. It's many important points.  I'm glad he covered it.  Now let's note Betty who did a wonderful job on another aspect:


Jada Stinkit and Wee Willie Weenus

 I'm sick of Jada Stinkit and Wee Willie Weenus and their pretend marriage.  I'm sick of Jada an Willie insisting that you don't talk about a Black woman's hair.


Chris Rock didn't joke about her hair -- she's got no hair.


Grow the hell up.


And I'm sick of the boo-hooing from her and other women who are bald.


Did you lose both legs like Tammy Duckworth in Iraq?


Uh, no, you didn't.  You've got it pretty good.


I don't like Tammy, she's to the right of me politically.  But I don't hear her whining.  She's taking care of business.  She wants a family?  She starts a family.  She can't fly in to vote on House membership and Nancy refuses to let her vote via phone, she doesn't whine.


I admire Tammy's spirit, I admire her grit and I admire her love for life.


I don't think I could handle losing both legs.  I don't.  


But I damn sure can handle losing my hair.  I'd wear a wig if it happened.  But I could handle it.


Jada Stinkit, you've have access to millions of dollars, you have two kids, you have your own talk show, grow the hell up, you ungrateful fool.


God has been very kind to you.


There are people in the US who had their whole faces burned in Iraq.  There's the Iraqi girl who had acid thrown on her face.  


These people are dealing with real issues.


You don't have hair?


Do you know how many children with terminal illness would give anything in the world to have their biggest problem be that they didn't have any hair?


You are a stupid, an ignorant and an ungrateful woman.  I hope God brings you to your knees.  How dare you spit on everything you've been given.  You're a greedy sinner who thinks you deserve everything so you can't say a thank you for all that you do have.  


As for her trashy husband, you embarrassed us all.  As a Black woman, I find your behavior shameful.  As the mother of two boys, I find your behavior disgraceful.  


You were given so much -- that night alone, you got an Oscar, but there were you attacking poor Chris Rock.  There you were striking him and cursing at him and doing it on live TV.  You aren't an adult, you're not fit to be in an adult coversation.


You're both embarrassments.


Exatly, she should be on her knees giving thanks that her big problem is being bald.  Again, it's not life threatening.  Betty's right, there are kids with cancer who would gladly switch places.  There are veterans from the Iraq and Afghanistan Wars who have lost limbs, who have lost sight, who have lost hearing, you name it and those men and women are dealing with real issues.  Jada's bald.  If she can't handle that, she's more pathetic than her husband.


Now let's go to the woman whose mouth always runneth over.  Monday, on THE VIEW, Whoopi Goldberg declared that Will Smith would not lose his Oscar following his Sunday assault of Chris Rock.  Monday, the Academy announced that they had started an investigation into the events.  Tuesday, Whoopi made various claims on air -- no, she couldn't support them and I know at least one was an outright lie.


Anyone see the problem?


I know Whoopi's a problem.  She's a nightmare.  She's so unhappy she can't stop eating even though her blood sugar is destroying her body.  No one cares enough to tell her that because she's such a bitch that no one really cares about her anymore.  Some people even encourage her to keep eating, ekeep eating.  They say it's to keep her happy but maybe it's to help her along to the other side.  Who nows?


What we do know is that she needs to shut her damn mouth.

I can say whatever I want.  Rob Reiner can say whatever he wants.  For the most part, whomever can say what they want.


Whoopi?  No.


I'm not serving a term on the Board of Governors.  Whoopi is.


How real and fair is this investigation going to be when Whoopi is already telling the wold on THE VIEW what the outcome's gong t o be.


She needs to shut her damn mouth.  


She's unethical.  She wants to talk about it during an ongoing investigation?  She can resign her seat.  


But while she holds that seat, she needs to shut her damn mouth.


I have not heard Larua dErn (who I know and love) say a word about it since the investigation has been launched.  Nor have I called her to say, "What do you think?"  Because she's really not able to comment.  The same with Rita Wilson.


But Whoopi -- the owman who told us that Roman Polanski drugging a 13-year-old girl and then having sex with her wasn't "rape-rape" now wants to come along and defend another who doesn't deserve defending.  Reminds me how tight Whoopi used to be with Harvey Weinstein.


Whoopi needs to shut her damn mouth or resign her seat.  Holding that seat and making the comments she's making could potentially influence the outcome of the investigation.  She needs to shut up.


Her conduct is outrageous and idiotic.  I realize she's not educated and not too bright, I've spoken with her many times.  So maybe she's so damn stupid that she doesn't grasp the ethical conflict she has created.


She needs to shut her damn mouth now.  



I don't watch THE VIEW.  I know of this because members of the Acdemy are talking about.  Are talking about her.  Everyone is offended by what she's doing.  


HOw real do most people think the investigation is going to be?


Some mebers (including me) don't think it's going to amount to anything.  Others think it might make a difference.  But everyone agrees that the Academy announced it to improve their own image and Whoopi, a sitting member of the Academy's Board of Governors, passing her opinions (where she dimisses it and underplays the assualt and creates -- cause she can see into peoeple's souls, you understand -- excuses for what happened) is a conflict of interest and could influence -- or even appear to influence -- the investigation.


She needs to shut her mouth.


As I heard about it from one person after another, I got transcripts of Monday and Tuesday's shows and read over her remarks.  They are utrageous considering the position she currently holds.  I don't think she's qualified to weigh in on anything.  But she's certainly not ethically allowed to be saying what shes saying right now while the Academy is conducting an investigation.  


The words she's struggling for are: I cannot comment while the Academy is conducting an investigation.


That's all she really has to say.  


In real life, Whoopi Goldberg is a monster.  She is not the character she has played.  (She can only play one character, if you haven't noticed -- sometiems, she lucky to pull off even one.)  She was a nightmare from the beginning.  She was so rude and ugly to Penny Marshall who was doing her a damn favor.  The director of JUMPING JACK FLASH was not working and the film could have been shut down.  Penny ws brought in to save it.  And Penny did.  Sher realized the limitaions of WHoopi and shot around those, she created additional business in the script for other characters, she brought in talented supporting actors.  She made that film watchable.  None of Whoopi's comedies are in those early years.  How many times are we going to blame everyone else for Whoopis's failures?  At any rate, whoopi was a real bitch to Penny.  I heard about it from Penny in real time and we're all talking about it now and what a bitch she was on this set, and on that set and . . .


She's a monster.  


The reason I'm bringing this up is she better curb herslef or she's going to be curbed.  She has no friends in the industry and she's pissing people off by refusing to condcut herself as a member of the board should.  If she can't curb her comments, people will be seeking for the Academy to correct her behavior.


Grasp that she wants tow weigh in daily on what should be done about a violation and that in weighing in she is also committing a violation.


Get some flash cards, maybe a dry erase board, a sippy cup filled with juice and someone sit her down and explain it to her.


(And to be clear, there are people who are nasty for a performance.  They have to go deep into a character to get ahold of it.  I'm not talking about that kind of behavior.  Whoopi's gahavior had nothing to do with her performance -- probably with her insecurity, but not her performance.  She throws fits about her trailer, she throws fits about the craft table, she throws fits about this and about that.  she's get pissed that someone said "good morning" to her and explodes, she's just a bitch and a pain in the ass to work with.)


Now to Iraq.


#BREAKING Iraqi parliament fails for the third time to elect a state president over a lack of quorum Arab.news #Baghdad #Iraq
Image
7:45 AM · Mar 30, 2022


Are we still calling Moqtada l-Sadr a "kingmaker."


He filed to get his nominee elected in Feburary.  He failed over the weekend.  And now hes failed again.  Three times now. Three announced votes.  And the Parliament's not showing up.  They're making it clear that ehy don't support him.


I thought he was supposed to be a ''kingmaker."  Guess he is just a cult leader and he's now a cult leader who is trying to install his cousin as prime minister.


When is the western media going to stop glorifying Moqtada.


And when might they start doing their thought pieces about how wrong 'others' were to immediately declare Moqtada a kingmaker and a stateman?  Others because they won't point the finger at themselves.


Moqtada is ahateful man who repeatedly destroys his own standing.


I told yout he cult was dwindling.  Motada's condeming female protesters and insisting that men not protest with women was rejected by the youthful protesters who saw it as outdated and wrongful thinking.  We've covered that at lenght.  We've also covered how Sadr City remains a slum.  He can't provide for his own cult.  


WHile the western press was insisting the October 10th elections were a glory moment for Moqtada, we were pointing out that not only was it Iraq's lowest turnout ever but that Moqtada's bloc actually got fewer votes than they had in the previous election.


Yet the media promoted Moqtada as though he were a world leader.  


He may eventually get a presidnetial nominnee in place and a prime minister desginate.  Eventually.


But it's about to be April and elections were held October 10th.  It's going to be six months after the election shortly and the poltiical stalemate continues, drags on.  Moqtada is not a national leader, he's not a kingmaker.  He is the leader of a cult and it's a cult that hs signficantly decreased.
