The Tour Break: Day 5.

I was planning to give myself the evening off to avoid clashing with the Olympic and Para-Olympic dominated British Academy Film and Television Awards (BAFTA) TV awards ceremony. The tone of the evening was rather set by Romola Gari who in presented the award for best actor in a comedy said; "When I recently gave birth to my child I was forced to endure 23 stitches to my vagina so I thought I'd never laugh again. These people proved me wrong."

Therefore my very long an complex post about the UK forcing the Bangladesh factory attack to the top of the global agenda on Friday (10/5/13)will have to wait for another day. However it is worth pointing out that the most anti-US of the three mainstream candidates does appear to have won Pakistan's General Election on Saturday (11/5/13).

However also on Friday the US' National Aeronautics and Space Agency (NASA) 'discovered' ammonia leaking from the cooling system of the International Space Station (ISS). Ammonia is of course an acid which is widely used in acid attacks such as the April 30th (30/4/13) acid attack against a women in Essex, UK, the acid attack against Naomi Onie also in Essex, UK and of course the acid attack against Sergei Filin - the director of the Bolshoi ballet. As the attack against Filin was a Russian assessment of my impact on the CIA's Rihanna/Chris Brown operation the 'leak' on the ISS was the US trying to convince everyone they were performing an asessment on the progress of that operation. The successful fix of the 'fault' on Saturday (11/5/13) was of course an attempt to reassure everybody that the CIA is in full control and the operation is still viable. The fact that there was no way on earth (or elsewhere) that the US were going to blow up the ISS killing some of the worlds top scientists is quite a big clue that this claim of success was scripted well in advance and it's conclusion is in no way the result of an honest assessment of the actual evidence.

The fact that access to acids like ammonia is becoming an issue with the public debates in India about women's rights in the wake of the Delhi bus/gang rape means that it was an attempt by the CIA to understand an issue that also has resonance in places like, Bangladesh, Pakistan and Afghanistan along with most of the Middle East North Africa (MENA) region.

Rather proving that the CIA cannot even allow themselves to contemplate the idea that the Rihanna/Chris Brown operation is failing they've just carried out a mass shooting at a Mothers Day parade in New Orleans. Details are still emerging but it appears that three people opened fire into a crowd wounding 12 including 3 who are said to be seriously injured. The 3 shooters have since fled the scene. The type of weapon used has not been disclosed but I'm guessing AR-15 type semi-automatic rifles or semi-automatic handguns.

The attack coincided perfectly with the end of the BAFATV award ceremony and the start of the aftershow parties. This attack will obviously sour the mood at those parties. Due to the close cultural links between the UK and the US this will have a knock effect on the Los Angeles based US entertainment industry. They will obviously be extra confused because the choice of New Orleans location brings up that ridiculous conspiracy theory that the CIA blew up the levees deliberately causing the flooding in New Orleans during Hurricane Katrina. The LA based entertainment industry have been very vocal supporters of gun control in the wake of the Sandy Hook massacre. Therefore the CIA is trying to make pro-gun, pro-Republican America think that they're getting tough with the anti-gun, pro-Democrat celebrities. However the fact that the three attackers have fled the scene which will obviously lead to a full scale manhunt is reminiscent of a terrorist attack particularly the Boston marathon bombings means that the CIA is actually trying to push for more gun-control claiming it is needed to prevent future terror attacks. This is a direct reference to President Obama's long term fear that pro-gun, pro-Republicans will one day assassinate him which as is was during the Boston marathon bombings seems like an attempt to insult if not totally confuse the President as he responds to the incident. Also the fact the attacks took place in the French quarter are intended to make it look as though the US is urgently discussing the situation in Mali in a effort to drag African governments into a world of hurt.

As for the LA community they appear very keen that the Rihanna/Chris Brown operation is cancelled and the threat presented by Chris Brown is contained. Today it was reported that a local residents association had filed a series of complaints about the state of Chris Brown's home including the treatment of animals within the property, the illegal parking of vehicles outside the property and a series of pictures Chris Brown had drawn on an exterior wall to the property. In recent days the LA Courts system has finally taking notice of these various violations and fined Chris Brown USD300 for "excessive signage" and ordered him to remove the exterior paintings This to me sounds very much like local Court code for; "Shut the f*ck up."

Unfortunately neither Chris Brown nor his attorney show any sign of either understanding or heeding the warning. Chris Brown has already taken to Twitter indicate that he will not comply with the Court order while his attorney is promising to fight the case as a first amendment free speech issue while once claiming that Chris Brown is the most oppressed person in all of human history. Obviously I couldn't comment on a pending case but I'm certain that one thing Chris Brown is not being oppressed by is the 15-20 years he should be serving in prison.

22:15 on 12/5/13.

Edited at around 00:50 on 13/5/13 to add;

The 'Community Parade' element of the New Orleans shooting is an attempt to raise security concerns ahead of the G8 Summit to be held in Northern Ireland, UK. The UK Prime Minister David Cameron will of course be meeting the US President Barack Obama later on today. I would like to hope that Obama has the sense to delay the meeting until my 15:50 appointment with my GP to discuss those ECG results amongst so many other things. Unfortunately I know deep down that was a key factor in the scheduling.
