The Necessity of War: Producing corpses and zombies in the making of a new
submissive labor force for higher profits.

January 2017
Grenoble, France
Dear
Colleagues and Friends of CEIMSA,
Public
submission must be conquered and maintained if new degrees of labor
exploitation are to be achieved. In this sense, war can be seen as a pretext for
creating a subjugated population at home and abroad, a population which has
been conditioned to tolerate repeated abuses and to hold their masters in great
respect. The system requires this obedience to serve the dictates of capital
class interests and no individual is immune to this conditioning, not the
president of the United States, not the debt-ridden students and the poor, not
the usual list of scapegoats whose role it has always been to keep the alienated population
at large distracted, unified and usually controlled by the orchestrated hunt for 'the Other" who is to blame for everything that has gone wrong.
This
system is our God --no one can see the creator, the master, the author of our
lives; “He” can only be obeyed (or you pay the consequences for not following
his command) ! Our “contribution” to this system may
be to live in poverty, in misery and homelessness, with suffering and frequent illness and early death;
or it may be to live with wealth, health and fame, and even become president of the United States
–but, despite the many differences, all of us are working toward the same end, i.e. to maintain the class-divided
capitalist system which exploits us, for there is no alternative ("TINA"). Right?
Illustrations
of the barbaric handiwork of this religious school of social order abound in the social
media.

The 10 items below will provide CEIMSA readers with a glimpse into “Hell’s Kitchen,” where a strange experiment is being concocted and portioned out into servings that will be administered to the public. Meanwhile, ordinary people are growing anxious and appear ready to revolt against any possibility of being poisoned by the busy staff who are working behind closed doors. An unanswered question looms large in this lugubrious atmosphere: AN IMPERIALIST WAR AGAINST WHOM NEXT? The silence is deafening . . . . (Some say the choice has been a farce, the repetition of Hitler's policy for Germany or Franco's policy for Spain--war abroad, or war at home?)

The
Deep State Goes to War with Trump, Using Unverified Claims, as Democrats Cheer
by Glenn Greenwald
In
January, 1961, Dwight Eisenhower delivered his farewell address after serving two terms as U.S.
president; the five-star general chose to warn Americans of this specific
threat to democracy: “In the councils of government, we must guard against the
acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the
military-industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced
power exists and will persist.” That warning was issued prior to the decadelong escalation of the Vietnam War, three more
decades of Cold War mania, and the post-9/11 era, all of which radically
expanded that unelected faction’s power even further.
This
is the faction that is now engaged in open warfare against the duly elected
and already widely disliked president-elect, Donald Trump. They
are using classic Cold War dirty tactics and the defining ingredients of what
has until recently been denounced as “Fake News.”

Powerful
elites are using the credibility of the US Intelligence agencies to demonize
Russia and prepare the country for war. This is the real meaning of the “Russia

complicity.

Francis,
We are the first union this year to strike. Our contract expired November 30,

Other unions such as the nurses and technical trades will have

Local 2010 ULP Strike Makes Waves Across California
Jan 10, 2017
Yesterday, thousands of UC clerical, administrative and skilled trades workers
stood together to strike at every UC campus, medical center, and the Lawrence
Berkeley Lab. Our strike, pickets and rallies were extremely effective at
bringing our message to the public and showing the University our power and our
worth.
“Today’s strike shows that the workers who make the University of California
work will no longer put up with unfair treatment,” said Jason Rabinowitz, Secretary-Treasurer of Teamsters Local 2010.
“We will continue to stand together and take action until UC bargains in good
faith for a fair contract that pays workers enough to live.”

France's Marine Le Pen seen in Trump Tower
- 3
hours ago
- From the section US
& Canada
Image copyright Samuel Levine Image caption Ms Le
Pen declined to say whether her visit was personal or professional
France's far-right presidential candidate Marine Le Pen has been
seen visiting Trump Tower in New York.
She declined to say whether she was there to see President-elect
Donald Trump but the Trump team said there would be "no meetings".
Ms Le Pen is currently one of the top candidates for the first
round of voting in April, opinion polls suggest.
The National Front leader has called Mr
Trump's election "an additional stone in the building of a new
world".
What makes Marine Le Pen far right?
Ms Le Pen was seen with three men in the cafe. Agence
France-Presse identified one as her partner, Louis Aliot, the National Front's (FN) vice-president.
Media captionLe Pen praises the Trump
victory, speaking to the BBC's Andrew Marr
Ms Le Pen also declined to answer when asked whether her visit was
personal or professional.
But when asked if she would speak to pool journalists later, one
of her associates said "OK".
Trump team spokesperson Hope Hicks told reporters: "She is
not meeting with anyone from our team."
Sean Spicer, who will be Mr Trump's
press secretary, re-tweeted a post by CNN's Noah Gray
that Ms Le Pen would not be meeting Mr Trump or
anyone from the transition team, adding "Trump Tower is open to the
Public".
Ms Le Pen's campaign manager had earlier said she would not be
meeting Mr Trump on her visit to New York.
Ms Le Pen has herself referred to her trip as "private".
Unconfirmed reports suggest the man to Ms Le Pen's right in the
photo is Guido "George" Lombardi.
He lives in Trump Tower, has links to a number of right-wing
European parties and says he is an adviser to the Trump team, according to
Politico.
Reuters said the fourth man was Ms Le Pen's international affairs
adviser, Ludovic De Danne.
Anti-immigration
Marine Le Pen is the daughter of ex-FN leader Jean-Marie Le Pen, a
convicted racist. She has denounced her father's comments and has sought to
distance herself from such toxic issues as Holocaust denial.
She retains a hard line on immigration and has linked it to
militant Islamism.
Ms Le Pen opposes the European Union, open borders and globalisation.
She also says jobs, welfare, housing, schools, or any area of
public provision should go to French nationals before they go to
"foreigners".
She is likely to fight former Prime Minister Francois Fillon and Socialist Prime Minister Manuel Valls for victory in the first round of voting in the
presidential election. It is then expected to go to a run-off.
