Happy Hump Day GCHQ

Not enough has been said about Boris Johnson's promotion to Secretary of state and foreign affairs. Yeah yeah yeah he said funny and insulting things about people and lied about Brexit but this fool now has oversight for MI-6 and The Government Communications Headquarters (GCHQ) the people that would be in charge of sending James Bond on kill missions for fucks sake.

In 2013 Edward Snowden released proof that the NSA and GCHQ had been spying on millions of people worldwide from their phone and internet use as well as tapping the phones of foreign politicians.

When brought to court for these offenses in 2015, the British government reworked some of the laws in The Computer Misuse Act a day before the case was due to go to court and GCHQ and law enforcement was magically exempt from any wrong doings.

Did you even know this? Did it even register with you? Why should you care?

Banksy cared.  

Maybe you were too wrapped up with the royal birth, shitting on Labour during the General election, Irish same sex marriage or Cuba being taken off the terrorist list to worry about this. Hey if you've got nothing to hide huh.   


"Arguing that you don't care about the right to privacy because you have nothing to hide is no different than saying you don't care about free speech because you have nothing to say."  ~ Edward Snowden

Did he say bum or bomb? ... you've got a lovely bomb I'd like to bite it? 

Russia has said that Brexit has weakened Europe and it's true. It has created a lot of uncertainty and the economy is still in the shitter unless you read the Daily Express which said it's booming ... then again if you read the Daily Express yer a moron anyways so there is no telling you any different. The Daily Mail is fucken high brow compared to that rag. 

'Muslim, Ebola spider polar vortex about to destroy the country and you'll be paying for it' 

Snowden didn't reveal anything that put undercover assets in danger. He pointed out the hacking and data collection against universities, hospitals, businesses and private citizens. He pointed out that any child growing up today will have no concept of privacy at all. All their thoughts and moments will be recorded and stored. 

US immigration control can ask for social media accounts to see what you've been up to and employers even look up people that apply for jobs. Mistakes are no longer done in private.   

The government will have all of our passwords, e-mails, phone numbers, credit card details but it's ok because we can trust the government. 

I'm sure we can trust Johnson too. I mean he did get fired for lying when he was a journalist and he did lie during the Brexit campaign but just because someone keeps lying it doesn't mean that you can't trust them .... er um yeah cos look, he's bumbling and eccentric, ach bless. 

    

Who cares about privacy and being free when you have celebs and constant bullshit to keep us occupied? Another famous person that I might have sorta liked 30 years ago died? .... fuck you 2016!

As long as you don't find yourself in the wrong place at the wrong time or when some faceless agency needs a cover story or a scape goat then you'll be fine.  

A post with Snowden, Cuba, Russia, Muslim, bomb, NSA, MI-6 and terrorist mentioned, I'm sure it'll get some attention. I hope the people at GCHQ and the NSA have a happy hump day.  

*After writing this post Old Knudsen had a heart attack, slipped in the bath and shot himself 3 times in the back of his head with an unregistered firearm . Police are ruling death by misadventure and that he was probably cleaning it at the time. They do not think anything suspicious happened. His elderly neighbour  whose house faces his was found hanged in her home by sheer coincidence. This post is dedicated to them. * 

  

Obama Hates Whistle Blowers

Sharks don't eat lawyers out of professional courtesy. What do you call 100 lawyers at the bottom of a cliff? ... a good start. These aren't Old Knudsen's opinions so no more legal letters please, I love lawyers who doesn't? Of course I'd not be stupid enough to swim with them without a lawyer cage .... DOH! I'm getting them confused with sharks again. I actually love sharks, well just their fins in a soup though it gives me the gas and leaves a taste in my mouth like I had been licking out a syphilitic hooker .... apart from that pretty darn tasty. Not as nice as dolphin steaks marinated in a whale sauce.

Since the second US president there have been 26 of the 44 that were lawyers, Hilary will be # 27. Imagine trusting lawyers enough to vote for them to run yer cuntry ... well that explains the state of it. They have no interest in the law they just want to win ... unless they spend their free time doing pro bono cases cos then they are probably lawyer by day and a super hero by night.

     I really wanted to be Batman. 

24 US presidents had military experience which doesn't mean much if Reagan and GW Bush are counted as having "experience" putting on a uniform and shining yer shoes or boots is not really experience. Being military doesn't give you any great insight but it does give you worldly experience and discipline. 8 of the presidents were farmers but not like how Carter was a farmer, most were plantation owners whipping away at their slaves or committing genocide to the injuns while yapping about all men being equal ... half the farmers were lawyers so what can you expect? 

  Ya missed me again Obama but you hit a school .... lol!

A whistle blower released some classified documents that showed that 90% of those killed in drone strikes were not the intended target. That was based on one 5 month period of strikes in Yemen, Somalia and Afghanistan. 

While Obama personally authorizes the targets, the strike decision is made by someone/s lower down with a 60 day window to make that strike. Signature strikes are unknown targets acting suspiciously ... whatever that means. 

So killing someone by drone (known as a bug splat) is not done in real time like the movies. Quick our target is here, launch the Reaper now! You have to go through the chain of command and by the time you've done that and 2 weeks later the drone gets sent out to track the sim card that the target had no matter where they are and BOOM kinetic action all over the place. That is why so many weddings and other weird civilian targets get bombed.

        Obama hates Whistle Blowers

As well as hope and change Obama also lied about a transparent government. His administration is more devious than Bush and Cheney and will continue on the same with Hilary. Obama has relentlessly persecuted whistle blowers to make an example of them. Edward Snowden has to hide in Russia because he uncovered how the US government were spying on its own people and its allies. Chelsea Manning got 35 years in prison for espionage, the government had asked the court for a 60 year sentence. Manning was in the army so this is a straight forward treason case even if it showed air strikes that killed up to 147 civilians at one time and mistaking cameras for guns and cheering when they get a hit. 

Some jobs you have to compromise yourself in order to do or you accept life as a whistle blower. 

Jeffrey Sterling joined the CIA but faced discrimination for being black. Sure a big black dude speaking Farsi would stand out but the CIA didn't really try to accommodate him to do his job properly. He filed a lawsuit was punished by being relocated to Langley to a tiny office he shared with another until they were able to fire him in 2002. 

He lost the lawsuits, his memoirs were blocked citing "national security" as the blanket reason that is often used and he had to rebuild his life with all his savings gone. The info that was sensitive was operation Merlin. A Russian scientist asset was to give the Iranians nuclear reactor blue prints that had faults that would delay anything they would build from it, this was done during the Bush admin. Sure they could also figure out shit from the valid parts of the plans but this is the CIA, 10 fuck ups to get one good score. 

In 2005 James Risen wrote a book that mentioned operation Merlin in it. In 2002 Risen had interviewed Sterling for a story about racial prejudice in the CIA, then the next year Risen did a story about Merlin but was told by the National Security Adviser Condoleeza Rice to kill the story which The Times did.       

The CIA questioned Sterling and he thought that his battles with the government were done but the CIA were waiting for the Obama administration to come to power in order to accuse Sterling ....  because Obama is more of a cunt than Bush, let that just sink in.

The evidence was circumstantial at best, short e-mails that contained no classified info, short phone calls that contained no classified info.  

Sterling admitted no wrong doing and Risen didn't even testify, in fact the CIA in pursuing this case gave out more info about Merlin than Sterling or Risen such as the $413,223.67 paid to the Russian asset long after operation Merlin was ruined. 

 Delete everyone in my inbox and then delete everything else.

The government wanted Sterling locked up for a long time, at least 20 years but the judge only gave him 3 and a half years which is harsh considering the lack of proof. Innocent until proven guilty huh. Compare the e-mails not marked classified that contained no classified information that were considered enough by the government to lock someone up for a very long time. 

Well done bro, they never had a clue. 

Now compare that to the 22 million deleted White House e-mails wiped by Karl Rove and the 30,000 work related e-mails that Hilary deleted. The government doesn't think that jail time is necessary for these cases. 

Bernie Sanders maybe sick of hearing about Hilary's e-mails and Hilary doesn't want to hear about them either but it's about double standards, declaring someone a traitor who is trying to help the public and who is disgusted by the establishment, would you vote for that person and their privileged status? I'm sure the hackers that hacked Sony (it wasn't North Korea) enjoyed Hilary's time as Sectary of State, who knows what info she gave away? Lawyers huh, criminals in power suits.

Sterling asked for his sentence to be carried out in his home state of Missouri so his family could easily visit, in what seems like a last minute fuck you he was sent to a prison in Colorado.   

        

Hate Makes The World Go Around

Moneyshots on slappers and hot sass on kittens, big booty weemen and kickin yer shit in, KFC gravy and Lord of the rings, these are a few of my favourite things.

Strong Irish whiskey, hate crimes and buckets of crack .... etc etc.

You know me by now, if it's bad for you, illegal or just a social taboo then you know Old Knudsen has it as a hobby.
I've already told you how to conceal a can of beer inside a coke can and tell yer bosses that you need the sugar for yer diabeetes, you can also use that excuse to shoot up too, it's me insulin dude. Well if you get one of those e-cigarettes and adapt it to just be a tube with a light on it you can smoke in those places that ban fegs but haven't banned vaping yet.   

Old Knudsen is so here for you.

It takes more muscles and effort to smile and be perky than it does to frown so who gives a fuck what I like? It's what I don't like that makes me write on this blog. Hate makes the werld go round and it makes me hard. Hate is my emotional Viagra.

Some of the things Old Knudsen hates are frowned upon ... good, cos people smiling all the time and agreeing is creepy .... unless they are agreeing with Old Knudsen cos then that makes them right.

   That is so wonderful!

I hate people who only look on the bright side or worse still hippies who go on about respecting all living beings. 'I look on the bright side because I'm in denial and don't want to face my issues' or 'You need to respect all living things which is why I don't eat meat' .... then they rip apart a Lettuce's head. 

Vegetarians are often mentally unstable, many people who werk in I.T. are vegetarian, or Satanists. Being mentally unstable has probably something to do with their diet, there are a few cool vegetarians who don't preach or condemn you for eating a burger just as there are some Christians who don't try to talk you into their Middle Eastern weirdy woo bullshit.

When you die you'll be rewarded in Heaven. Christianity is the ultimate Nigerian scam, if you send me yer details and $200 I'll send you $5 million. 

If vegetables were cute and had big brown eyes would they eat them? Yer hoose plants cry in silence when you have a salad you know, what kind of cunt eats plants in front of living plants? No wonder house plants choose to die all the time. Every time I had smoked kippers me goldfish died, the horror they must have felt like Bob in The walking dead watching those people eating his leg right in front of him.

Do vegetarians condemn tigers when they eat meat? 

Kim in Ebola.

I also hate the Kardashians. Kim used to be attractive and I cared about her huge arse but then we got to see more and more of her and now she just makes me want to punch her .... in the arse.  Kanye was someone you wanted to punch anyways but now he designs gog awful fashions and pretends to look sad everything a camera is around. 

Now Bruce Jenner is a chick and people say I have to like him now or I'm being anti-transgender, away an fuck!

Just like if I criticize Israel I'd get called anti-Semitic or if I say that black people rioting are thugs then I'm a racist .... Can I no just slag off wankers without people thinking I'm in someway bigoted? I'm bigoted against arseholes that's what .... oh I've got white privilege. I'm no better than you because I'm white, it's because I'm just better than you .... Learn to deal fuck face.   

Chris Kyle was an amateur, I shot more men weemen and children than I can remember.  

Being ex-military if I slag of Loyalist fleggers in Northern Ireland I'd get called a Republican (IRA type) sympathizer, course they don't hear me saying I'm against a united Ireland cos they ain't got no time for logic or reason.  You can't control how others think of you so fuck em. They don't know me or my ability to not be blinkered in my opinions.   Loyalists only like dead soldiers that they can use for their own agenda, they make me sick. The Republicans that made those soldiers dead also disgust me.

It pissed me off that Prince Harry said we should have national service back in the UK, that's the draft to you Americans. Take people out of their early adult life when they should be thinking about a career and force them to be in the military for 2 years. Not only will they be resentful at leaving their life and maybe their young spouse and family but they'll be counting down the days to leave and when they eventually become of some use to the military they leave. It takes a lot of money to train a recruit. 

Prince Harry thinks it's what young ones need to keep them out of trouble. He comes from a place of privilege and a life handed to him on a sliver platter, he didn't earn it. Unlike many he went to college and has a cushy military life seeing the world and doing things normal soldiers don't do .... does he even soldier bro? Then when he leaves he gets a knighthood from the Queen, his granny. 

If others were given his opportunities in the military then hell yeah, sign me up again. Will I get a castle too? Prince Harry needs to fuck off and go be ginger somewhere else.  
   

Conscription works for Israel because that was a nation formed by terrorists who have been at war since before it was a nation. Einstein turned down being in charge and was against the whole idea so that should tell you something.
They have no interest in peace until their enemies are wiped out and want more breathing room though do they keep taking pictures of hot IDF chicks so fuck all that I just said, I love Israel. Let me introduce you to Mr foreskin, you'll learn to love him as I do. 

 
I hate Liberals who are too Liberal .... I hate Conservatives who are too Nazi like. When you define how you think and what yer opinion will be by being either of these and saying things like, 'a poor innocent unarmed man was gunned down by a killer cop' .... you limit yerself. The unarmed bloke (Dillon Taylor) who had nervous cops pointing guns at him reached under his shirt to provoke a reaction and so he was shot dead.
A weeping pussy Liberal condemns it, a no facts Conservative says he was asking for it. Old Knudsen looks at the video and says how fucking stupid was he? Yeah lets make sudden movements when people have guns pointed at you. Unarmed and dead doesn't make you automatically right.

A wise person accepts that they don't know everything and that there is always something to learn. At first I was against Edward Snowden because giving away government secrets is treason but it wasn't secrets that could jeopardize lives in the field, it wasn't a NOC list of spies, it was the government spying on it's own people, the government shouldn't be doing that. He told the American people what they were doing with Microsoft and Facebook at the cost of his own freedom.

Now I think that Snowden is a hero, Assange can still go fuck himself though .... with or without consent.

I dislike knee jerk hatred towards Obama. Don't hate him for being a Democrat or for being black, hate him for promising hope and change and giving the US the same old shite. He has let everyone down.
I also hate those who unconditionally love him, did you not see what Snowden said? Have you not been seeing the US support of ISIS? Those journalists beheaded, they were just a part of the whole  Obama admin cover story to be in Syria.
The UK gave the US details of a hostage and the US still did nothing. They bomb empty cities and other targets in Syria that only get targeted if they are targets that will hurt Assad ... Why are ISIS taking over big parts of Iraq again? Because the US is too busy in Syria.  

Why is the US in Syria? Oh it's to hunt ISIS, like how Bush was in Iraq to hunt WMD's. 

He didn't repeal the Patriot act ... he renamed it the Freedom act, just like he renamed the war on terror Overseas Contingency Operation and how killing people with bombs is now kinetic action.

If you love Obama and think he's great then yer just as dumb as those who loved G W Bush. Don't get me started about Ukraine, the US have been undermining the Russians long before they invaded Ukraine. If there is a war in 2020 as I have predicted it will be because the US has been goading Russia and Hilary has been a part of that undermining as Secretary of State so think about the war she'll be promoting if she becomes preez.

Old Knudsen doesn't know everything but he'll get there, he refuses to go with the crowd because the crowd is fucking dumb and use peer pressure as an argument.

So to break it doon I hate: Christians and veggies and Kim and her family. People who stick to their side no matter what they do, royals and knee jerks, Obama and manipulation .... these are a few of my most hated things.

Bobble headed dolls, reality shows, sports, Necromancers, touchscreens and of course lemurs.    

I hate that feeling you get when you go to an automatic door and it doesn't open for a split second, even the doors troll you. 'You don't have a soul so I won't open, you don't even register as a person, what you going to do use the handle? .... there are no handles.'
You get a flashback to the school bully who mocked you or yer parent who said you'd never amount to anything. Well I have a blog now so who is laughing now? .... Certainly not my readers. 

Hows That Freedom Working Out For You?

Do you know whats wrong with young people today? ... well besides no work ethic, yes I'm looking at you Snowden, they haven't gained wisdom from movies of the 80's. If yer gonna betray yer cuntry then the last place you go to is Russia.

Have you never watched the movie The Falcon and the Snowman? 'This would never happen in America! ..... this is not America.' 

How the fuck did Sean Penn get out? I was hoping the reds would have sent him to a gulag ... not the one Old Knudsen was sent to of course.

First Snowden goes to China, then Russia where he still is and he hopes to find sanctuary in Ecuador. Hey why not try North Korea or Iran while yer at it?

Many see him as a hero exposing how the US is spying on it's people ... um yeah, we already know. It's very telling that these crusaders for free speech and liberty always seek refuge with the nations with the worse records for free speech and liberty... You attacked the wrong cuntry asshole.
