Comments On The Book "Black Wave" By An Authors Whose Name Is Irrelevant


The problem with writers of books as "The BlackWave" critical of Iran and it's Islamic Revolution is, it does it from the narrative of the loser, the opposition to the revolution and its narrative.

What the "Black Wave's" author, whose name is irrelevant, glosses over is, the Iranian Revolution as all revolutions including the American, which should correctly be described as a National War of the Independence, didn't occur in a vacuum. The World Pre-Iranian Revolution wasn't all peaches and cream and all of a sudden Shia Ayatollahs and Mullahs ruined it.

There has been one historical line of attack and criticism of the Iranian Revolution, but with two diverging points:

  • It is Islamic and its diverging points are: 
  1. It is a Terrorist state
  2. It is a Totalitarian and a theologic dictatorship
But the true nature of the Iranian critique, the only nature of the critique is Iran and its militancy dare challenge the Zionist narrative of Israel and its logic of seizing Palestinian Patrimony and to the ends of this conflict, all sorts and levels of propaganda are wielded and brought to bear against the perogatives and speech of the Iranian Revolution, of which the "Black Wave" is another labor.

Notwithstanding the presumptions of the Zionist and Iranian positions, whatever contradictions that are inherent within Iranian Theocracy can only be resolved from the perspective of the social fact of Iranian speech and not whatever antagonisms it has with the suppositions of the "Black Wave" and it's author whose name is irrelevant, and its narrative masters.

Look, critics of the Mullahs, if such critics are Muslims should war within Islam for its reform and Islam is no stranger to reform, and not simply present and represent a Eurocentric supremacy critique of Iran. Let's not forget that there is nothing unique and exclusive to the critique leveled against Iran by Eurocentric supremacy and its Zionist ward. Europe and America are not heaven. The only difference between eurocentric supremacy and Iranian militancy is we know all about the former and less about the later.

To claim as the author of the "BlackWave" whose name is irrelevant does and I paraphrase, that the emergence of Shia Iran has caused panic in the surrounding Sunni states is petty intellectual-liberalism giving us not one illuminating ray of insight and with these comments, I remind the author whose name is irrelevant, that her "BlackWave" work mocks the purported ends, her Pakistani protagonist beseeched, that of choice and it is in pursuit of choice those vanguards and supporters of the Iranian Revolution aspired.

Contra-Donald Trump and The Resurrection of Walter Cronkite Editorializing By William Thorpe


A seminal moment in American media was the journalist Walter Cronkite transforming the act of editorializing into journalistic purity with the revelation, that the government was lying to the American people on the nature, development, and circumstance of the Vietnam War.

Critics of Walter Cronkite and his televised editorializing were the usual suspects, that reactionary minority who for their own wretched ends and pathetic interest were threatened by the revelations of Walter Cronkite televised editorializing.

Since Walter Cronkite dared challenge the oppositionary status quo with his televised revealing editorials. Academia has lionized the act while culturally it is iconic.

So fast forward to another war, the one currently being waged by Donald J. Trump against the nation and its hard-won truths, that directly poses the question: Who amongst the non-Fox News legatees of Walter Cronkite have the resolve to advance Cronkites notion that editorializing is not only required but demanded when the pursuit of journalistic equivalency is not only morally and professionally repugnant, but not doing it is crass and abject cowardice.

Secondly, the reminder that accountability isn't a Paul aka Saul declarative, descending from the "grace" of the Nazarene on cherubic and seraphic wings, nor will it emerge from heroic but gelded impeachment push. But there are enough accumulated archival facts of malfeasance, moral turpitude, mendacity and base corruption of Donald J. Trump's actions and behavior to interrupt the robotic delivery by any of the non-Fox News anchors with the televised resurrection of their Walter Cronkite moment, shaking and rousing the nation from the stupor of the unimaginable.
