"What is a constitution? It is a booklet with twelve or ten pages. I can tear them away and say that tomorrow we shall live under a different system. Today, the people will follow wherever I lead."

- Muhammad Zia-ul-Haq

"If you take out Saddam’s Regime, I guarantee you, that it will have enormous positive reverberations on the region."

- Benjamin Netanyahu

"If you want a nigger for a neighbour, vote Liberal or Labour"

- Conservative slogan in Smethwick, 1964 "There is not a history of, um, clashes that are violent between Sunni's and Shia's, uh, so I think they can probably get along in the world without a state of their own."

- John McCain. "The parent should have the legal right not to feed the child, i.e., to allow it to die."

- saying that by forcing parents to feed children you are depriving them of their rights (just fuck Article 3 in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights) "The primary modern argument against privatization is that it only enriches and entrenches business and political elites, without benefiting consumers or taxpayers. The discussion here suggests a rich historical irony: these modern arguments against privatization are strikingly similar to the arguments made in favor of privatization in Germany in the 1930s."

- An interesting article on the plutocratic socialist economics of 1930's Germany

"Anybody who the NHS 'saves' from a tobacco or food-related deaths will die of something and the NHS will pay for it. If that person is forced to live a long life, they will likely end up costing the NHS more than they would had they died younger."

- Tory mentality. You just can't make this shit up

"The very small state would just be resetting the clock back to 1776 and it would roll forward exactly the same way."

I really have no opinion of social justice either way, but do find its more extreme proponents silly/overly concerned on trivial issues (that said they aren't as funny as reactionaries who pretend that western society is perfect and that social justice movements are comparable to totalitarian regimes. Sorry guys but Black Lives Matter isn't comparable to the fucking ) I don't have the time or patience to deal with, so please leave your reactionary rants in a.

History
Currently I am extremely interested in the Middle East, mainly focussed on the recent histories of Syria, Iraq, Iran, Egypt, Palestine, Israel, Libya and Saudi Arabia. I'm also interested in Chinese history mostly concerning the Mao period especially the Cultural Revolution. However I know most about British history thanks to the English education system putting a particular focus upon it.

Of course the US supported him) Pakistan under various military dictatorships (most notable includes Yahya Khan who ignored the democratic elections of 1970 and subsequently murdering many Bengalis in East Pakistan, now Bangladesh. The other notable one is Muhammad Zia-ul-Haq who Islamised Pakistan and was the main supporter of the Taliban) Iraq under Saddam Hussein in the 1980's (seen as a buffer against Iran, and suppressed anti communists. Overthrown later, but for strategic interests rather then spreading freedom) Iraq under Nouri al-Maliki (Corrupt and oppressed the Iraqi Sunni minority, many of whom now form the ranks of ISIS) Guatamala under Manuel Estrada Cabrera, Jorge Ubico and several military juntas (helped the US company the United Fruits Company oppress the people of Guatamala to keep their lands. The dictators and juntas brutally suppressed movements that demanded workers rights and suspected communists. The US helped put a few of the juntas overthrow democratically elected leaders) El Salvador under the Revolutionary Government Junta (the US helped appoint this junta in a coup where they killed communists, socialists, the usual) Dominican Republic under Rafael Trujillo (the US helped the coup that led to him ruling over the Dominican Republic for a long time that led him to brutally oppress socialists and communists) Egypt under Hosni Mubarak (the US supported this dictator who held complete control of Egypt punishing those who demanded democracy up until the Arab Spring) Uganda under Yoweri Museveni (the US have funded Museveni who has overseen the persecution of many in Uganda including homosexuals) Saudi Arabia under the House of Saud (possibly the most authoritarian regime in the world after North Korea the Saudi government has oppressed political opponents, women, religious and ethnic minorities as well as support groups such as ISIS. The US get a nice cut of their oil and they used to kill communists, so of course they remain one of the biggest allies to the US in the middle east) Liberia under Samuel Doe (punished dissent mostly from tribal opponents brutally, and rigging votes that most of the international community decried. The US didn't and supported his regime) Sudan under Gaafar Nimeiry (the US gave this dictator military and economic aid. He oppressed the Sudanese people implementing Sharia law in his rule that remains in place in Sudan today) Turkmenistan under Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedow (he gives oil to the US who ignores his brutal oppression of the Turkmen people) Tajikistan under Emomalii Rahmon (similar to Berdimuhamedow really) Equatorial Guinea under Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo (brutal dictator who calls himself a God, the fact he has given the US a lot of oil has meant that he has been ignored) Brazil under Vargas regime/National Renewal Alliance (anti-communist and supported US interests in Latin America) Chad under Hissène Habré/Idriss Déby (oil is a good reason to support those who torture, rape and murder opponents) Panama under Manuel Noriega (the Saddam Hussein of the tropics - as in it was his biggest financial backer that overthrew the fucker in the end) Uzbekistan under Islam Karimov (oil provider and a key ally in the War of Terror. He also boils political opponents alive) The Philippines under Ferdinand Marcos (you saw the nasty man take away Filipino guns Jesse Ventura? Did you also see the massive amounts of aid given to him by the gun loving US of A?) Mexico under Porfirio Díaz (And I thought supporting dictators was started in the Cold War!) South Korea under Syngman Rhee, Park Chung-hee and Chun Doo-hwan (Credit where credit is due, at least they weren't as bad as their northern counterparts.) Vietnam under the CPV (oh the irony - the people their Vietnam war vets fought against are now best buds with the American government) United Arab Emirates under the Al Nahyan family (don't be fooled by the fancy skyscrapers - the UAE is almost as strict as Saudi Arabia when it comes to draconian law and punishment) Qatar under the House of Thani (more developed then most of Eastern Europe, and yet as friendly as Saudi Arabia) Tunisia under Zine El Abidine Ben Ali (To be fair, he did keep the Islamists under control. But then again, America is meant to uphold freedom)
