    • First, Is the history of the Branding Requirement ----in the status quo aid is required to be Branded by the USAID

       

      Mark Ward, Foreign Service with USAID for 24 years. USAID Assistance in Pakistan, IMPACT blog. October 9, 2010 http://blog.usaid.gov/2010/10/usaid-assistance-in-pakistan/

       

      Day in and day …. assistance is coming from.

       

      And the branding of aid goes back many years, it started during the Marshal Plan, in the 1950s the branding policy changed to start using the clasped hands, all in order to pacify and ensure friendship from the aid recipients

       

      Leslie Rose in 2011
       Leslie, (Candidate for Senior Communication Officer at CIAT.org)  Seminar entitled Branding USAID: Truth and Consequences” http://webapp.ciat.cgiar.org/training/pdf/2011_02_03_l_rose.pdf pg 2

       

      Labeling of USG ….. around the world.

       

      The branding is a rush to ensure credit for gifts provided—Hillary Clintons recent statements make this point clear

       

      Leslie Rose in 2011
       Leslie, (Candidate for Senior Communication Officer at CIAT.org)  Seminar entitled Branding USAID: Truth and Consequences” http://webapp.ciat.cgiar.org/training/pdf/2011_02_03_l_rose.pdf pg 2

       

      Remember now, …..  from us.”  88

       

      The credit placed upon the United States is important for its quest to win over the hearts and minds of recipients

       

      Thomas Carothers in 2009
       
      Thomas, “Revitalizing U.S. Democracy Assistance The Challenge of USAI D” Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, http://www.carnegieendowment.org/files/revitalizing_democracy_assistance.pdf

       

      Adding a dispiriting ….. remains in place.

       

      And that hasn’t changed today, September 11th provided an impetus to continue to use branding to win the hearts and minds of the recipients

       

      Leslie Rose in 2011
       Leslie, (Candidate for Senior Communication Officer at CIAT.org)  Seminar entitled Branding USAID: Truth and Consequences” http://webapp.ciat.cgiar.org/training/pdf/2011_02_03_l_rose.pdf pg 2

       

      The 2004 Rebrand ……Muslim world.”

       

      Second, Are the implications to this branding process--- The logic of gift giving ensures that the donor is acquiring social power as the recipient becomes indebted to the donor. This social power results in domination and a heirarchialization

       

      Hattori 1 (Tomohisa, Assistant Professor of Political Science @ Lehman College, Review of International Political Economy, Vol. 8, No. 4 (Winter, 2001), pp. 633-660)

       

      Giving is an …..  hierarchy  over  time.

       

      The continuous gift exchange ensures a normalization of racism

       

      Speight 7 (Suzette L., Assistant Prof. of Psych @ U of Akron, “Internalized racism: One more piece of the puzzle”,  The Counseling Psychologist 2007 35: 126, http://tcp.sagepub.com/content/35/1/126.full.pdf+html)

       

      Carter (2007) …… themselves as members of that group” (Hardiman & Jackson, 1997, p. 21).

       

      The Naturalization of the process connected with the gift ensures that oppression is a self-fulfilling and continuous cycle

       

      Poupart 3 (Lisa M., Chair of First World Studies @ U of Wisconsin Green Bay, “The Familiar Face of Genocide: Internalized Oppression among American Indians”, Hypatia, Vol. 18, No. 2, Indigenous Women in the Americas (Spring, 2003), pp. 86-100,  http://www.jstor.org/stable/3811013).

       

      American Indians' knowledge ……our communities of Others.

       

      The constant subjugation created by the gift giving prevents empathy

       

      Pheterson 86 (Gail, PhD. Social Psychologist and Researcher @ U of Amsterdam, “Alliances between Women: Overcoming Internalized Oppression and Internalized Domination”, Signs, Vol. 12, No. 1 (Autumn, 1986), pp. 146-16, http://www.jstor.org/stable/3174362)

       

      Internalized  oppression ……..become rigid and repressed

       

      We must  have a complete and total rejection of racism within US foreign policy. Racism is the worst form of violence and makes all other violence inevitable.  Rejection of racism provides hope that we can live in a just and ethical environment.

       

      Memmi 00 (Albert, Professor Emeritus of Sociology at University of Paris, Racism, p. 163-5)

       

      The struggle against racism ………but the stakes are irresistible.

       

      Thus the Plan—United States Agency for International Development should provide waivers from the branding requirements for aid being used in the country of Egypt by Non Governmental Organizations.

       

      Third, we’ll be able to stop this continuous cycle of oppression-- The Plan parallels the Jainist Renouncer’s collection of food alms. Individual donations are compiled and distributed by a third party external to the recipient and the donor. In doing so the identity of the donor is subsumed into an undifferentiated substance. The lack of transparency in the relationship between the donor and recipient prevents the obligation of reciprocity and feelings of self-gratitude.

       

      Laidlaw 2k  (James, Dir. Of Social Anthropology Studies @ King’s College, The Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute

      Vol. 6, No. 4 (Dec., 2000), pp. 617-634)

       

      Not  only language separates …….recognize the gift as gift.

       

      Removal of branding makes status quo democracy assistance more like anonymous donations to NGOs.  These NGO’s can avoid the inauthentic gift– their structure ensures that the authenticity of the gift remains in tact as long as the donor remains anonymous.

       

      Stirrat and Henkel 97(R.L and Heiko, Honorary Senior Research Fellow @ Sussex U and  Associate prof of anthropology @ U of Copenhagen, Annals of the American Academy of Political and Social Science, Vol. 554, The Role of NGOs: Charity and Empowerment Nov., 1997, pp. 66-80)

       

      There  are  problems  …….  giving  to be  asocial

       

       

      Fourth, The demand towards empathy provided by the affirmative is crucial-- Empathy is soft wired into us, we need to act with empathy in every instance to ensure an empathetic civilization

      In our culture ……. "Empathic Civilization".

       

      And an empathetic orientation and decision calculus in the world is the only way to ensure democracy

       

      Glenn W. Smith has spent the past 30 years in journalism and politics, where he’s made a name for himself as a writer, campaign manager, activist, think tank analyst and, as Daily Kos founder Markos Moulitsas says, a “legendary political consultant and all-around good guy.” “There’s no one like him,” says author George Lakoff.

February 7, 2010 http://www.huffingtonpost.com/glenn-w-smith/prairie-humanism-and-the_b_452696.html

       

      Prairie humanists ……, democratic relations.

       

      Even if they win their impact scenarios, those impacts are inevitable because of our current relationship to our emotional trauma. Because we are currently engulfed in a moment of emotional trauma, an empathetic relationship prevents destructive reactions to their impact scenarios

    • Status Quo aid is nothing but an attempt to win over the hearts and minds of the people it provides for

      Thomas, “Revitalizing U.S. Democracy Assistance The Challenge of USAI D” Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, http://www.carnegieendowment.org/files/revitalizing_democracy_assistance.pdf

       

      Adding a dispiriting  AND requirement remains in place.

       

      The winning of hearts and minds is an attempt to control and order the world according to US policy—they selectively choose powerbrokers to win over.

       

      Richard Becker, with the ANSWER Coalition in San Francisco. 'Domination basis of US foreign policy', PressTV. October 4, 2011 http://presstv.com/detail/202673.html

       

      Press TV: First of all AND  policies of domination.

       

      This quest for control is proven by the US support for the Bahraini government

      This dilemma is  AND violent crackdown ensued.

       

      But this urge for control is fostered by the notion of an ego “I” self, which is at the root of fear and suffering.

      In all of  AND our cultural life.

       

      And the urge to control the world continues today with the war on terrorism. Wars will continue because we find them agreeable. Wars exist as an attempt to ground the ego “I” self. With a promise that once the world is how we want it to be, we won’t feel suffering

       

      David Loy, Besl Professor of Ethics/ Religion and Society at Xavier University and a Zen Teacher in the linage of Koun Yamada. Money, Sex, War, Karma; Notes for a Buddhist Revolution. 2008 p. 127-138

       

      War is hell, AND  basic spiritual problem. 

       

      And controlling the world is not possible, we can’t understand the world well enough

      And The neg will say we also pursue to control the world by pursuing human liberation, but that isn’t an accurate portrayal of the affirmative. The affirmative is the radical acceptance that the ego “I” self does not exist and that the world is inevitably outside of control. This is uniquely different than trying to find happiness by controlling external conditions

      This first  AND of Vajrayana Buddhism. 

       

       

      Thus, Joe and I advocate a relationship toward democratic aid that abandons notions of control and embraces the Buddhist concept of Dana.

       


      The current system ensures generosity is not used, but if it were to be generosity would be able to overcome consumerism, promotes democracy, equality and prevents violence

      Joe – Their plan was topical---what the hell does that have to do with anything

      David – No Dumbass – They did everything right.  They instrumentality implemented a plan to deal with the harms of the status quo.

      Joe – Oh thank god – I was worry that shit was going to be unfair or unreasonable. What was their plan

       

      David – Well I could Tell you but it might be better if you heard it from Max Brooks, Zombie Expert in 2007

      Max Brooks,  Zombie Expert and Zombie Survival Specialist. World War Z. 2007 p. 45-50

       

       

       

      When you think about the CIA,  AND

      it was now a question of who would believe them.

       

      Joe – Your telling me that China in the midst of a zombie outbreak that originated in China attempted to cover it up by killing its own people and staging a Taiwan Independence War.  Your telling me that the US didn’t realize the true motivations of these actions.  With all of our intelligence we didn’t know that a zombie outbreak is occurring and China was just trying to cover it up.

      David  - It didn’t seem all that abnormal – China crackdown on dissidents and starting a war with Taiwan.  That shit happens every policy round since the Straight Times wrote about in 2000.

      Joe - That is some atrocious shit.

       

      David - Attrocious shit indeed, Joe, but that’s not even the 60% of it! The second worst of it was Straight Times was wrong – The First Nuclear exchange occurred between Pakistan and Iran.

                                                                                                                  

      Joe – Pakistan and Iran -  I thought the most likely hotspot for nuclear war was Kashmir – You know that shitty place between India and Pakistan

       

      David – No Joe, we had it all wrong.   Sometimes our rational predictions of the irrational actors are irrational.

       

      David - The story of Major Ahmed Farahnakin of the Iranian Air Force shows how some countries started flinging their nuclear poo at each other after the outbreaks.

      Brooks reports…

       

      Max Brooks,  Zombie Expert and Zombie Survival Specialist. World War Z. 2007 p. 89-92

       

       ICE CITY, GREENLAND [From the surface, all that is visible are the funnels, the massive, carefully sculpted wind catchers that continue to bring fresh, albeit cold, air to the three-hundred-kilometer maze below. Few of the quarter million people who once inhabited this handcarved marvel of engineering have remained. Some stay to encourage the small but growing tourist trade. Some are here as custodians, living on the pension that goes with UNESCO's renewed World Heritage Program. Some, like Ahmed Farahnakian, formerly Major Farahnakian of the Iranian Revolution Guards Corps Air Force, have nowhere else to go.]

       

      India and Pakistan. Like North and South Korea or NATO and the old Warsaw Pact. AND

       I don't believe in him anymore.

       

       

      Joe - Sounds Terrible –

       

      Davie – It was terrible, but eventually, the human race responded and managed to recreate a living space once again. Kwang Jingshu gives his final thoughts about the children that were born and know nothing of a world that wasn’t full of zombies—here are his observations.

       

      Brooks Describes

       

      Max Brooks,  Zombie Expert and Zombie Survival Specialist. World War Z. 2007 p.  335

       

      It's comforting to see children again,AND

       that everything's going to be all right.

       

       

      I leave you with these final thoughts -  This could have all been prevented if the United States had taken proactive measures to prevent this atrocity on the China Topic.

      Joe – So what the hell do we do for the next hour an half to prevent this shit from happening again

       

      David – I am glad you asked -  I say we modestly propose the following modest proposal thusly

       

       

      The United States federal government should provide  seven dollars and sixty three cents to fund zombie survival groups within the topic countries.

       

      Iran’s milkshake brings the security community to the yard – its nuclear energy program combined with Ahmedinejad’s sly innuendo makes it the top priority to paranoid US neoconservatives hell-bent on stopping new evil empires that are planning to take away our rights, freedoms, and delicious  fried foods.

      But have no fear the zombies are here --


      Zombies are empirically used to understand international relations

      Then they are on to zombies, and Drezner’s book. AND  , some people wouldn’t have any examples at all’ sense.

       

      And, Zombie stories offer a unique space in order to parody the world around us—this parodizing of the world opens up space for rethinking and questioning of norms

       These so-called “monsters”        AND  and the world that embraces (and created) them.

       

      And this will result in a dismantlement of the securitizing politics of the status quo

       

      Bruce 96 (Robert, Associate Professor in Social Science – Curtin University and Graeme Cheeseman, Senior Lecturer – University of New South Wales, Discourses of Danger and Dread Frontiers, p. 5-9)

       

      This goal is pursued in ways which AND or choose not to understand them, and why?

       

      And this is important to break away from because calculability devalues life and make extermination possible

       

      Dillon 99 (Michael, Professor of Politics and International Relations – University of Lancaster, “Another Justice”, Political Theory, 27(2), April, p. 164-165)

       

      Quite the reverse. AND constitutive of the human way of being.
