Don't leach Bandwidth or Pictures from me please

So this guy in France who's apparently a part of ZDNET decided that ZDNet's servers wouldn't be able to handle their own image hosting. So he decided to use an image of an xbox from my server.

This kind of opened the door for me to do whatever I damn well pleased on his little french ass.

Here's a link to the page

Fortunately he left a picture of himself at the top of his webpage.

too bad you don't know how to spell 'leech,' jackass.

Posted by: stan at December 22, 2005 12:53 AM

Why don't you use http redirects instead of killing your bandwidth on the joke picture?

Posted by: Dan at December 22, 2005 12:55 AM

I fail to see what him being french has to do with it, but in any case, he deserves it, seeing what he did.

Posted by: Ian Weir at December 22, 2005 12:56 AM

Haha thats awesome!, "leech"

for those of you who don't how to spell leech, or what it's supposed to mean...
Take a look at the 2nd definition of leeches...
Let me just spell it out for you "drains or exhausts the resources of"

Posted by: Emily at December 22, 2005 01:15 AM

Oh my god, that is the funniest thing I've seen in a very long time. Two points to you for that one.

Fucking French deserve it too.

Posted by: Andrew at December 22, 2005 01:15 AM

Contact me if you are running out of bandwidth.

Posted by: AlexV at December 22, 2005 01:17 AM

Leech and leach are both words.

The mean close to the same thing, though I would say "leech" is more commonly used in this context.

Posted by: Andrew at December 22, 2005 01:17 AM

Lol damn french bastards

Posted by: PowerMoloch at December 22, 2005 01:17 AM

I have more than a terabyte of bandwidth left. I think I'm ok. Thanks Alex

Posted by: Bryant at December 22, 2005 01:19 AM

And for the love of God, lay off the stereotyping.

We get it, he's French. That obviously means everything every bad thing a French person has done, or has been reported to have done, has been done by this single French guy.

Can we try not to give so many reasons to stereotype us.

Posted by: Andrew at December 22, 2005 01:21 AM

right on to those LOOSERS @ ZDNET (esp the french cocksuckers).

sue the dipshits.

Posted by: thewebguy at December 22, 2005 01:28 AM

Yeah the guy is a Jerk, but being French at the same time doesn't deserve such ridicule at his nationality.
Besides, today the French parliment legalized P2P. That's right, sharing music/movies for personal use is LEGAL in France. Try THAT, USA.

Posted by: Anonymous Coward at December 22, 2005 01:29 AM

It's funny that you are probably the type a guy that thinks you should be able to download other people's work (music and movies) for free.
ZDnet should not being using other people's images though.
This would of been funny if you didn't come off like a racist and a biggot.

Posted by: Otto at December 22, 2005 01:33 AM

SON OF A BITCH, I HATE THE FRENCH!, THEY SHUT DOWN SUPRNOVA.ORG BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T LIKE P2P, NOW THEY LEGALIZE IT?!!!!!, Suprnova was a god.

Copying is the greatest form of flattery. Sad that you resorted to acting like a child replacing it with that stupid picture.


From reading the posts on your site, it looks like you have a bunch of children here to support you.


Oh yeah, where did you get your Xbox image from, Bryant?

you do realise that the issue wasn't that the picture had been copied, but rather that it had been hotlinked, INSTEAD of being copied? that bryant would rather have had the guy copy the picture?

That is freaking awesome. Bandwidth is expensive, and that is great. You should set up your server so anytime someone leaches they get that gay cowboy! yes, just great!

Posted by: KillATurk at December 22, 2005 02:01 AM

1. I wasnt trying to be racist. Although I do find it amusing that a member of the Choung family has been called a redneck.
2. I dont really care about the bandwidth, I just thought it was stupid for that author to do.
3. Don't get all offended or overanalytical. It was just supposed to be funny.

Posted by: Bryant at December 22, 2005 02:02 AM

but bandwidth ISNT expensive for a company like ZDnet which is what makes it even greater

That's freakin' great. I had a problem like that with one of my sites. I just changed the filename and moved on but this is classic.

Some people are rediculously retarded like Adam above ^

Who comes and takes time to comment on something like this just to call other children? Seems that would be the childish thing to do wouldn't it?

Anyways, kudos man cuz this is hilarious. I love to see people get busted for this shit because leechers are freakin annoying. Especially the ones who use the pics as slander or something towards the site while hot-linking. Who does that anywyas?

Way to teach em!

Photos are not put on a site by the writers. Some sub-editor at zdnet has obviously been too lazy and instead of taking the photo from the official site, copying it to zdnet's server and then uploading it again, took a shortcut route. Ha!

why exactly did yo have that picture of that mans body before you put the french guys face on it? i wont downlaod a picture of a guy to do that i would just redirect to another site, maybe gay porn site?

Jules Gabriel Verne (February 8, 1828 – March 24, 1905) was a French author and a pioneer of the science-fiction genre. Verne was noted for writing about cosmic, atmospheric, and underwater travel long before air travel and submarines were commonplace and before practical means of space travel had even been devised.

Well this is incredibly sad, I loved the joke but the comments here are terrible. If we really need to bag out a nation with all the profanity and crap that has been going on, why just stop at France? America as a nation has done some pretty supid things as well. Its funny how most Americans that I meet on the net are so ignorant of other cultures and ways of life. Hell, some retard I met a while ago thought dingos were mexican(!)

I can't talk, Australia is following the American way. But at least most aussies still treat other people with the respect they deserve (except maybe for a few childish teenagers looking for a fight). Think before you start racial crap like this.

America is not an Empire. Never has been and never will be. Now France had an Empire as did Britain and allot other European countries. Also if you knew anything about America you would know that we are the world, since were a nation of immigrants from all over the world.

Your prank was funny although bashing the author for being French is ridiculous, he probably wasn't involved anyway. Apparently you download images from other sources for your site. Yes, you don't hijack remote images via an abolsute URL but I doubt the images you use are authored by you. Your Xbox image looks like a stock promo image from Microsoft. An Asian referring to the French as stupid is stupid within itself.

Posted by: evert.999 at December 22, 2005 10:18 AM

Most of you are missing the point: The reason you don't link to a picture on another site is that it eats up the bandwidth of the leeched site. For a commercial site to leech the image is utter crap.

And... while most french people are ok, the french government is fucked and totally corrupt. The euro socialist model is falling apart.

Hi everybody,
I must say that reading all the comments here took me some time... Here is my answer to Bryant, and to the rest of you who have followed this (long) story.

- First of all, sorry for any trouble created on your server Bryant. I was calling the image from your server because of a bad use of the edit system, without knowing precisely the consequences of the "click" button for "image to add". In this case, there was no intentional "leaching". I used many others platforms before, on personal blogs, and never had any problem nor complaint on that point & servers matters...
- About my so called lack of reaction, just notice it is Christmas time, and that I am on vacation, not connected all time.
- Also, there are many other ways to inform us about the situation, like sending a mail to me or directly to ZDNet.fr, or adding a proper comment to the page. You could have chosen that, and we would have reach back to you immediatly.
- Concerning insults & violent comments (you keep online on your blog) about French people & others... my god, what could I say to those types of arguments...? Just thanks to your readers who posted more peaceful & rational comments.

If you would read french, you would see in the post & in the whole blog that my goal is to talk about IT news and behaviours. Your feedback would have been appreciated in this case; in lack of that step, thanks already for giving me inspiration for my next thoughts upon the IT community.

I hope now that the situation is clear for both of us.

Posted by: Laurent DUPIN at December 22, 2005 12:58 PM

Most of you fuckstretched twats wouldn't know a logically sound argument for having an opinion if it came on your faces and said "I'm a logically sound argument for having an opinion".

If there's one thing I hate more than an arrogant Frenchie, it's a stupid self-serving American conservative who fails to realize that "having common sense" is a fucking fault! It means the same as "having vulgar sense", and is exactly what makes their feeble-minded attempts at rational thought and sound policy defined by mediocrity.

Get over yourselves, 'cause you don't excel... You're just plain, and that's a great fucking downside.

Great reaction to the leech, but I figure I'll meta-comment and throw in my two cents. As a red blooded commie hating American I believe it's part of our country's long and rich heritage to make xenophobic comments with no logical backing. But then again:



1.) The french have surrendered in almost every major military conflict they've been involved in. (hell, polish cavelry mounted on horseback lasted as long against the german tanks as the, much better equiped, French did)



2.) 1985 the french government authorized the bombing of a greenpeace boat (The Rainbow Warrior) killing a photographer

Uh.... wasnt it the French, the Germans and the Russins that were taking the bribes from iraq to keep us from invading. sounds like some people do not have any idea of the politics of outlaw nations. the truth is that France is run by a socialist socitey that has no economy or future and the people who live there know it but refuse to elect a individual that will not push the socialist agenda. so let france be they are already fucked...

yeah just look at most of the racist posters on this site. giving every oportunity to raise questions of general french attitude but no one explaining his/her case. sounds like liberal zealots.. all need to take time to explain cases or we are lost. if you want to hate a race hate the ACLU..They are destroying America. They fight for pedifiles and non traditionalists.
Fuck the ACLU if you want to take down some one. take out the ACLU... whoever heard of such a thing as removing Christmas from schools but leaving holloween. jeaze what is left but merry thanksgiving.. uhoh that is thanking God for helping the pilgrams and us giving thanks for everything.. damn thats the next holiday to GO after.

This was a post about someone taking a shot at someone for stealing some bandwidth. If you took the time to look at the rest of this blog, you would realize that Bryant isn't a biggot or racist, but rather someone just running a humorous and enjoyable blog. So much ignorance is being posted on here that it is ridiculous.

Great prank. I usually do the same to people who leech photos and steal my bandwith. For example there were these people linking to scanned book covers on my site from ebay. Quickly replaced those with a book cover of a book about sex tipps for gay guys.

I love to mess with uneductaed idiots.

Of course the French-bashing in the comments here is racist, xenophobe and uncalled for - and much worse than stealing bandwidth. You guys should be ashamed of yourselves.

Posted by: Nils at December 23, 2005 06:14 AM

stop whining about the french bashing so called racists. no one cares, can you not realise it's just a joke. No one is taking this seriously, except for those complaining about the 'great ignorance and the travesty of justice'. I don't even care, just arguing for the sake of it.

btw: quote - Of course the French-bashing in the comments here is racist,

the french, not a race but a nationality - thus not racist.


Q: Why don't they have fireworks at Euro Disney?


A: Because every time they shoot them off, the French try to surrender.

To Matt, if some guy from Texas was leeching, you wouldn't say "Fuck the Americans", you would say "Fuck Texas." For that matter, forget the leeching, just plain fuck Texas. We let one of those assholes get power and he ran amuck. Of course the French are just as bad...taking bribes up the ass then pretending they are 'morally' opposed to war. Fuck them. Also, you who else I don't like? The Swiss. Somebody should invade those neutral motherfuckers. That'd learn em good.

BAHAHAHAHAHA! Bullshit excuse.

Just because it's a variation on it doesn't mean it's not the same thing. One is in no more in control of his nationality than he is his race, both of which are in less control than religion.

So drop the self-justification, 'cause it's the same kind of apologeticism that skinheads, neo-Nazis, and other hategroups use to justify their viwes. Hiding behind vague definitional differences doesn't make the actions any less evil.

I've been to France, twice. The last trip (in May of 2004), I was told four times to my face that Americans were stupid and/or arrogant, and once was told that I wasn't welcome in France. And these were just the comments made to my face, I can only imagine what was said behind my back.

The whole world hates America, they have for a long, long time. It's our right to hate them back.

Posted by: Sirius Sam at December 23, 2005 12:12 PM

'we saved'?

somehow, none of you (us) were around at the time to 'save' anyone.. you (we) weren't even a twinkle in your dad's eye yet. you're all safe in your warm beds and warm computer rooms, safe behind the shield of an internet connection.

before you think that you have room to rank on those who don't happen to live on the same chunk of rock as americans do.
you do realize that:

1) given the same conditions, humans tend to be the same around the planet, right?

2) for all this ranking on the french (because of something that happened 60+ years ago), the US is hardly in a position to be bagging on anyone at the moment (because of the current administration).


3) some bored people have taken a really good prank, and ruined the mood by making dumb and vaguely jingoistic comments, thereby living up to their very own stereotype of internet 'personalities'. i.e people who wouldn't say 'boo' to anyone, but who feel very brave online.

this has turned into yet another example of why some americans are snickered at by more than their fellow countrymen.

have a nice day

Posted by: god at December 23, 2005 12:34 PM

I'm French. I live in USA. This wonderful country where you can sue anybody for anything. If the racist/xenophobic/nazi/hater posts are not removed, I am simply going to sue you. Class action style. You know these comments can't be save by the first amendment; you know you're responsible, being this blog's author. You may believe what you want, this is not a joke. Only warning.

Posted by: A French in USA at December 23, 2005 12:58 PM

Hey dumbass, racist/xenophobic/nazi/hater comments are perfectly legal in free speech as long as they are not directed to incite a riot. How do you think the KKK and Neo groups hold legal rallies?

See here for an example:
http://www.kxan.com/Global/story.asp?S=4020533&nav=0s3d

I'm not saying I agree with them. I am simply pointing out your legal ignorance. Perhaps you were referring to a libel case. (i.e. printed or published material that damages your character) You would have to prove that the comments in this blog damaged the reputation of "A French in USA". Wow, I don't think that's going to happen either.

Perhaps you should return to France and study a little more before you issue frivilous and moronic legal threats. Better yet, stop by a local grade school... they will probably know more about the law than you do.

Posted by: American Lawyer at December 23, 2005 01:22 PM

To Mark Pauley (Poorly) who believes 'leach' is spelt wrong - you can spell it both ways. Are you from the USA by any chance? You guys have no idea about proper spelling. I get pretty sick of seeing 'license', and 'practise' when you mean 'licence' and 'practice'.

The difference is in the following sentences:

A doctor practises medicine at his practice.
I advised him his advice was suspect.
I have a licence to print licences, but my licence was licensed through someone else.

You see - '...se' = verb '...ce' = noun.

Moral of the story, don't make crass comments about spelling unless you are *REALLY* sure of the facts. If you are American, just don't comment. The Internet is an international space, in which you make yourselves look really dumb.

I don't care what this thread is about - I exist only torment Americans ;-)

If you think you are well-read and well-educated then think on this: What does 'Obulate' mean? If you find out I will retract this statement about Americans. However, to date no one from the great fuel guzzling pseudo country has managed it.

Posted by: Apoch at December 23, 2005 01:27 PM

Wow, Apoch. I love you. I thought I was the only one who thought like that.

Furthermore, quit going overboard on the French thing, people. Big deal, he's French. You wouldn't be going as insane if this were done by someone from Armenia or Mongolia. You're just mad because France isn't living up to your standard of assholishnessness.

Posted by: Xyna at December 23, 2005 01:34 PM

Very funny even for the French I am.
Stupid "journalist" of ZDNET ;)

But do you think that if ONE french is stupid, every frenchs are stupid ?
When I see stupid americans on TV, I know that all americans are not like this.

Perhaps you will try to be more openminded. I am French but I sometimes watch CNBC, I sometimes read Newsweek, I sometimes read american weblogs, I talk with americans in chats,...

Thanks to all the openminded americans (and all openminded humans) and have a nice Christmas holiday :)

It is very good to have intelligent differences of opinion, but this ongoing 14-year-old level of "You suck." "No you suck!" thread is what causes colon cancer.

In terms of someone not getting their act together during WWII, you might want to have a look at how the Brits had to hold info back from the US because of security issues which needed to be kept (ummm.. oh yeah) away from the Axis. The problem was the US couldn't keep the door shut.

Lets see how well you fight off a nation powerful enough to challenge the world. But you'll never have to do that. Why? You're the people sitting at home, cheering when you hear the Iraqi civilian death tolls because you see them as another American victory and another symbol of your countries greatness. Well you aren't so great. In terms of education you aren't even in the top ten. You're economy, although strong, is weakening day by day and all the world hates your nation. We don't hate all the people in the U.S., but we hate the blind, short-sighted, self-serving pig the U.S. has come to be. Smarten up before its too late and you're the ones bending over to let China ream your ass out.

Argh. A large portion of posters here hate the French for no rational reason. Another, smaller portion is being almost as stupid by stereotyping and hating the haters, though they may deserve it.

Meanwhile, I pray for the sanity of the world. I sort of like Bush (better than Kerry or Clinton, at least) and am a moderate-conservative Christian who is becoming more cynical by the day. Well, at least intelligent people still make up a large, influential portion of the world population (unlike some things, like this thread, would indicate).

Well, no.

You not inspire respect but fear. Loose your power, and you will see you havent any friends on earth.

Posted by: aguy at December 24, 2005 06:17 AM

Sure seems like some folks do dwell a lot on America, and then claim it's not out of jealousy. Way to prove a point!

And really now, the silliness of some people with all of thier silly "you have no friends, wahh!" attitude sound like the most pathetic people on earth. Seriously, how Kindergarden level is that?

Get over your wishful thinking that somehow an entire nation of 300 million people 'not having any friends' (!!!) -as if everyone was as petty and pathetic as you are to even think that way- and get your own pathetic selves out of that silly playground-level 4 year old brat mentality!

It's like the kid who tries to threaten to 'take his football and go home!' when he doesn't get his way- except the lame-asses spouting off don't even own the football! (Double lame!)

Then the kind of twits who spout such nonsense wonder why they get picked on, be they French or otherwise!

Personally, there's a shitload of funny french slander i'd like to say here, but this forum seems a bit too heated to joke anymore. I also believe that if someone feels like bashing, letem go. Letem run their mouth and have the time of their life, cuase if you can ignore the bastards and walk away, just know you're the better man.

Oh yeah, gotta say, sweet sweet revenge my friend.

Posted by: Tyler at December 25, 2005 01:42 AM

Funny how the most anti-French people here are also the ones that had hissy-fits over shopowners saying "Happy holidays" instead of "Merry Christmas".

And now that Christianity's most sacred day is upon them, they speak of nukes...

Whether you care to admit it or not, you're spreading hate, instigating violence and fear, and you're all going to Hell for that.

Ps. Whether France actually sucks or not is irrelevant. The fact that you want people to hate an entire country is your ticket to Hell.

Posted by: usfucker at December 25, 2005 09:46 AM

Can we all stop arguing about how much or how little the french suck, cough *they suck huge donkey dick* cough, the real place we should aim our hate and hurtful comments is our fuckin ass clown of a president who gives the French a reason to give us shit. Fuck you bush! It hurts me to watch you give those pompous french fuckers verbal ammunition, you fuckin jerkoff!

Also, i would like to give my thanks for brightening my christmas day seeing that french bitch get what was coming to him.

this is for all of those assholes that keep bringing up WW2 as an excuse as to why the french should love us. FUCK YOU!!! if it was not for france we would have never won the revolutionary war, and we would not be a country. we would still be second class citizens. dont believe me look it up in andvanced history books, because im sorry but the history book that you are reading that is from elementary school is full of lies. so in fact we should be prasing the french. and they should do the same for us, because if not for the king going bankrupt to give us our country, france would still be a monarchy. so anybody that doesnt have an education beyond elementary school, and thats most of you bashing the french, shut the fuck up, becasue you are just another brainwashed tool.

Posted by: ohioguyt at December 26, 2005 02:04 AM

sucez mon robinet vous les arrêts de galet damnés par dieu.

Watch what you say about the French - they did help save your ass in the revolution. It is not their fault they ended up losing WWII either they got blitzkrieged without enough warning to mobilize troops - the fct is tht the tanks didnt even stop during a fight - they drove past the french going stright for Pris - with a wave of infntry and aircraft following in the wake. Frankly hitler did a damned good job on tactical level (until the russians, americans and canadians decided to kick his ass).

Now you just imgine that you are soldier out on leave in france - nd you get a call to arms saying that the germns are on their way - it does not tke lot of time to cover the length of france in a tank. By the time the french were mobilized the germans were at their doorstep.

And I see know reason why you should accuse them of being extremists like the Islams. French people happen to be generaly polite and helpful when I have dealt with them - allthough they do not like loud-mouthed americans yelling at them when they dont understand what is being said.

Your country has a bad rep around the world for your mannerisms. Your government should restrict the ammount of passports issued to its citizens. That way you would generaly get a better reputation and be more liked.

PS - 'leech' is an aquatic annelid that nourishes itslef on blood plasma, while 'leach' refer to the process of draining something

Everyone should add a comment to Frenchie's web site and make fun of him.

Posted by: nathan at December 28, 2005 08:13 PM

First off, fuck everyone. Fuck you. Fuck me. Fuck your mom.

None of your (or my) opinons matter.

Having said that, here is my humble opinion.

America doesn't care that the rest of the hates us. Why should we? You all need us. Yeah we're really ignorant, we give a fuck about your culture, and we watch too much TV. We also run shit. The world to be exact. This percieved complacency disapears real quick when shit hits the fan. We have nuclear submarines and guns that shoot rockets from flying robots controlled by computers. Don't fuck with us.

France doesn't care that the rest of the world hates them. They eat their cheese and do whatever the hell they do on the Eiffel tower. Fine enough.

Heres what I don't get. Why has France aligned itself with 3rd world dictatorships throughout the middle east while burning bridges with America? It seems France needs money pretty badly to support their crumbling welfare state. And whos got more money than oil rich terrorists. France will oppose the US on anything and everything. Is this a convenient distraction from the massive corruption prevelent in French government? Hmm. And another thing. They certainly can't take the moral high ground on Iraq like they pretend - they've been doing the same thing we're doing in Iraq for 50 years in Africa.

Anyways, that one French guy felt stupid or something. What a fuck.

PS- Try that google thing.

Oh well I'm cool with your life-style as long as you don't influence people onto your backward frame of mind other than that I really hope you learn a bit more about the world ,it will get you out of the rut you're in at the moment. die you fuck!!!

The French helped us beat the Brits in the beginning can't forget that, but they did nothing in WWII and ditched on us in Vietnam contrary to some comments. You always gotta give it up though as we would be still in the Church of England without them. And what about French Fries and French kissing? :) France is a great place so is the US, I call foul on the image though.

Posted by: dra at December 31, 2005 05:55 AM

you fucks are all retards, nonetheless, the french have done shit in their history that lost their respect, and the us has done a LOT to lose respect, nobody wants to move to the USA. The United States has been the bully of the world for years, so don't give bullshit that everyone loves them, arrogant fucks. Note, who was bombed mother fuckers? Canada is safe apparently, and in any country you go to everyone loves Canadians and diss the american racial fucks. Canada fucking pwns the United States and they can shove it up their fucking asses if they say otherwise.

Okay. That is funny. Damn funny. Regardless of him being French or wether mur'cah is the greatest nation of all time, or your dad could kick his dad's ass.

I would do the same damn thing if he leeched off my server, regardless of where he was from. Though I would have been a little more subtle so it would have been around a bit longer.

Posted by: sfcg at January 10, 2006 02:20 AM

Alright, just to set the record straight...

Let me clarify something for those of you that think the anti-french comments are because you didn't back us up in the Iraq war - That's not it. We didn't like you LONG before that. We've had 60 years of rude treatment when we've visited your country because we're not as "cultured" as you. After saving your ass in WWII we got nothing in return but arrogance, snobbiness, and hostility. You had a big chip on your shoulder because you needed saving from "inferior" people and it's pissed you off ever since. Well, fine. Just understand it's not going to win you many friends over here.

As to the Iraq war, we knew you wouldn't side with us. It didn't really engender any extra ill-will, it was a typical move on your part. We knew you wouldn't want to end the endless stream of Iraqi bribes, kick-backs and cheap smuggled oil fueling your corrupt government.

Posted by: Logan at January 10, 2006 03:31 AM

Some people (American or not) need to grow up and quit being so narrow-minded.

Stereotypes can be funny or useful for malicious/constructive motives but let's not forget that certain actions/events in history performed by the respective country were not necessarily supported by everyone in that country.

Unfortunately, people do stupid things because of racism and jumping to conclusions.

I just hope everyone tries to understand that we may have our differences (cultural, political, et al) but, clearly, we all have feelings and can suffer the same (death, hunger, torture, abuse, etc.).

Please try to be open-minded. I’m sure there have been times you wish people understood your principles and did not blindly attack you.

Regards,
HC

I've seen Michael Moores "bowling for colombine" and "farenheit 911", seems like most of the nutcases he found while making those films has gathered here. (Not saying that I think it's a completely true picture of the US...)

Personally I think both your governments have their issues and have acted very immoral on several occations, but generally speaking... I'd rather travel the world with a french then an US-american.

"Hadda Be Playing On The Jukebox"

It had to be flashin' like the daily double
It had to be playin' on TV
It had to be loud mouthed on the comedy hour
It had to be announced over loud speakers

The CIA and the Mafia are in cahoots

It had to be said in old ladies' language
It had to be said in American headlines
Kennedy stretched and smiled and got double crossed by lowlife goons and agents
Rich bankers with criminal connections
Dope pushers in CIA working with dope pushers from Cuba working with a
big time syndicate from Tampa, Florida
And it had to be said with a big mouth

It had to be moaned over factory foghorns
It had to be chattered on car radio news broadcasts
It had to be screamed in the kitchen
It had to be yelled in the basement where uncles were fighting

It had to be howled on the streets by newsboys to bus conductors
It had to be foghorned into New York harbor
It had to echo onto hard hats
It had to turn up the volume in university ballrooms

It had to be written in library books, footnoted
It had to be in the headlines of the Times and Le Monde
It had to be barked on TV
It had to be heard in alleys through ballroom doors

It had to be played on wire services
It had to be bells ringing
Comedians stopped dead in the middle of a joke in Las Vegas

It had to be FBI chief J. Edgar Hoover and Frank Costello syndicate
mouthpiece meeting in Central Park, New York weekends,
reported Time magazine

It had to be the Mafia and the CIA together starting war on Cuba,
Bay of Pigs and poison assassination headlines

It had to be dope cops in the Mafia
Who sold all their heroin in America

It had to be the FBI and organized crime working together
in cahoots against the commies

It had to be ringing on multinational cash registers
A world-wide laundry for organized criminal money

It had to be the CIA and the Mafia and the FBI together
They were bigger than Nixon
And they were bigger than war

It had to be a large room full of murder
It had to be a mounted ass- a solid mass of rage
A red hot pen
A scream in the back of the throat

It had to be a kid that can breathe
It had to be in Rockefellers' mouth
It had to be central intelligence, the family, allofthis, the agency Mafia
It had to be organized crime

One big set of gangs working together in cahoots

Hitmen
Murderers everywhere

The secret
The drunk
The brutal
The dirty and rich

On top of a slag heap of prisons
Industrial cancer
Plutonium smog
Garbage cities

Grandmas' bed soft from fathers' resentment

It had to be the rulers
They wanted law and order
And they got rich on wanting protection for the status quo

They wanted junkies
They wanted Attica
They wanted Kent State
They wanted war in Indochina

yeah

It had to be the CIA and the Mafia and the FBI

Multinational capitalists
Strong armed squads
Private detective agencies for the oh so very rich
And their armies and navies and their air force bombing planes

It had to be capitalism
The vortex of this rage
This competition
Man to man

The horses head in a capitalists' bed
The Cuban turf
It rumbles in hitmen
And gang wars across oceans

Bombing Cambodia settled the score when Soviet pilots
manned Egyptian fighter planes

Chiles' red democracy
Bumped off with White House pots and pans

A warning to Mediterranean governments

The secret police have been embraced for decades

The NKPD and CIA keep each other's secrets
The OGBU and DIA never hit their own
The KGB and the FBI are one mind

Brute force and full of money
Brute force, world-wide, and full of money
Brute force, world-wide, and full of money
Brute force, world-wide, and full of money
Brute force, world-wide, and full of money

It had to be rich and it had to be powerful
They had to murder in Indonesia 500000
They had to murder in Indochina 2000000
They had to murder in Czechoslovakia
They had to murder in Chile
They had to murder in Russia

And they had to murder in America.

Yeah!

Since when the french and the americans are opposed??
I mean where does it come from?

It's all non sense..

You take the exemple of the 2nd world war, the french were fighting along the americans the same ennemy, with diminished means because of former leftist.. but so is life.


The first world war? the same.
Now afghanistan? the same
Now Irak? well you think they dont share informations?

In science french and americans are, with other nations, sharing the same enlightments.


I mean I understand that you are pissed off against some political french stances, but hell that does not make it better to snatch allies.

Those comments are just like any other stupid french communist rants about americans.

If you want to combat french politics, then do it for real, not like a lonely wanker with his little webserver...

So, it appears that America has 3 times as many assholes and idiots than France. Judging by the comments to this post, I would say that we have much more than 3 times the idiots in America, though. Maybe I should make a big post saying, "Fuck Americans, those filthy bandwidth stealers! They are all a bunch of fucking doinks!" Wake up and smell the world, people. :P
