QUOTES & QUESTIONS ON MEMORIAL DAY 2011

Could it be that we have lost the true cost of war as we morn its dead ~ could it be that flowers and flags can never justify the inhumanity of war ~ could it be that all wars are lost because there are no true winners and lastly, why are we not questioning H.R. 1540 ~The Forever War Act of 2012 as Ron Paul most certainly is: Allen L Roland

Here are some thought provoking quotes and thoughts to mull over on memorial Day 2011 and then a must see 5 minute video of Ron Paul speaking on the House floor about the death of the Republic as Defense Authorization Act H.R. 1540, aka The Forever War Act of 2012, was recently overwhelmingly approved. The law authorizes the United States to use military force anywhere it says there are terrorists, including within the borders of our own country. It represents the largest hand-over of unchecked war authority from Congress to the executive branch in modern American history.

The founders of our Republic were seriously opposed to handing this much power over to the executive branch, fearing tyranny. If enacted into law, this provision will make Obama a dictator who can wage war anywhere and without the consent of the American people and it’s duly elected Congress ~ and many in the past have warned of the danger of an out of control war making machine.

President Eisenhower most certainly warned us all about the out of control military/industrial complex but here is a 21^st century updated thought provoking warning by Joe Rogan that War is a Racket ~ with X rated language, so be so warned. Nine minute video ~ http://www.brasschecktv.com/page/1119.html

And of course, CNN loves war! The whole channel is designed to make war seem dramatic and inevitable, because it makes money ~ as seen in this 5 minute video on its fake CNN Gulf War reporting http://www.brasschecktv.com/page/1098.html

When people say "support the troops" but aren't fighting to bring them home and keep the criminals who run these wars in check, I wonder how serious they are about helping anybody. Others have expressed the same doubts about war ~

“War destroys. Peace creates. War is decay and death. Peace is growth and life, sunlight and air. War kills men. Peace maintains them. Artillery does not reason, it asserts.. A bayonet has point enough, but no logic. When the sword is drawn, reason remains in the scabbard.” ~ Col. Robert Ingersoll

"We have grasped the mystery of the atom and rejected the Sermon on the Mount. Ours is a world of nuclear giants and ethical infants. We know more about war than we do about peace - more about killing than we do about living." ~ WWII General Omar Bradley

"I want you to remember that no bastard ever won a war by dying for his country. He won it by making the other poor dumb bastard die for his country." ~ WWII Gen. George Patton

"In war, there are no unwounded soldiers"-- Jose Narosky

"It can never be lawful for a righteous man to go to war, since his warfare is in righteousness itself; nor to accuse anyone of a capital charge, since it makes no difference whether you put a man to death by word or by sword, since it is the act of putting to death which is prohibited. It is always unlawful to put a man to death." ~ Lacantius

"Individuals have international duties which transcend the national obligations of obedience. Therefore (individual citizens) have the duty to (refuse to obey) domestic laws to prevent crimes against peace and humanity from occurring." ~ Nuremberg War Crime Tribunal, 1950

“We must kill them in war, just because they live beyond the river. If they lived on this side, we would be called murderers.” ~ Blaise Pascal (17^th century mathematician and philosopher whose father lost his entire savings because of France’s national bankruptcy caused by the debt incurred during the religious Thirty Years War)

“If you had seen one day of war, you would pray to God that you would never see another.” ~ The Duke of Wellington (celebrated for being the victorious British general at the Battle of Waterloo, June 1815)

“I confess without shame that I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded, who cry aloud for more blood, more vengeance, more desolation. War is Hell.”~ Civil War Union General William Tecumseh Sherman who orchestrated the infamous scorched earth policy that terrorized the Confederacy in his “March to the Sea” in 1864.

"Wars throughout history have been waged for conquest and plunder and it is the working class who fights all the battles, the working class who makes the supreme sacrifices, the working class who freely sheds their blood and furnishes their corpses, and it is they who have never yet had a voice - in either declaring war or making peace. It is the ruling class (the “plutocrats”) that invariably does both. They alone declare war. They are continually talking about patriotic duty. It is not their patriotic duty but your patriotic duty that they are concerned about. Their patriotic duty never takes them to the firing line or chucks them into the trenches." Eugene Debs, antiwar activist, union organizer and Socialist candidate for president who was sentenced to 10 years in prison for speaking out against WWI. He received a million votes as a 1920 write-in candidate for US president while he was in jail!

"Military power is as corrupting to the man who possesses it as it is pitiless to its victims. Violence is just as devastating to the soul of the perpetrator as it is to the body and souls of those who are victims of it" -- American Friends (Quakers) Service Committee

"All through history it has been the nations that have given the most to generals and the least to the people that have been the first to fall." ~ Harry Truman

"All that was required of them (i.e. the brain-washed masses) was a primitive patriotism which could be appealed to whenever it was necessary to make them accept longer working hours or shorter rations. And even when they became discontented, as they sometimes did, their discontent led nowhere, because, being without general ideas, they could only focus it on petty specific grievances. The larger evils invariably escaped their notice." ~ George Orwell 1984

Well, here is a larger evil which is evidently escaping the notice of many Americans on memorial Day ~ but not Congressman Ron Paul standing alone on the House floor who calls The Defense Authorization Act or H.R. 1540 (aka The Forever War Act of 2011) ~ which was overwhelmingly approved by the House of Representatives on May 26^th by a vote of 322 to 96 ~ “the Last nail in the coffin of our Republic“… but is anyone really listening? Five minute video.

MEMORIAL DAY 2011 / WAR IS STILL AN OLD RECYCLED LIE

Three dead Americans in Afghanistan ~ Why?

War is a waste so why do we celebrate it with parades, flags and glorious war stories when, in reality, they are fought by our youth who are but pawns in the hands of old men ~ seduced by power and greed ~ who are more than willing to waste our most precious resource on illegal wars, occupations and the on going maintenance of an out of control military/ industrial complex : Allen L Roland

The aspect of control and domination is a precipitating factor in all wars, and it is also the principle aspect of ego consciousness ~ which is directly contradictory to our innate propensity to unite and cooperate, which are the principle aspects of soul consciousness and the Unified Field .

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and not clothed. This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, and the hopes of its children. This is not a way of life at all in any true sense. Under the cloud of threatening war, it is humanity hanging from a cross of iron." Dwight D. Eisenhower

On this Memorial Day 2011, America is still enmeshed in a costly and illegal war and occupation of Iraq, rapidly increasing its military presence in illegally occupied Afghanistan and preparing for the possibility of war with Iran. Humanity is still hanging from that cross of iron and paying a heavy price for this ongoing folly.

The American War Wagon has not slowed down in 2011 but is accelerating ~ with little if any deep reflection on the true human and moral cost of this insanity.

On this Memorial Day 2011, much of the media will roll over backwards to glorify war and all the soldiers slaughtered in wars. Tributes to the dead are easy; the dead don't talk back and if they did they would most certainly say ~ why?

To save your world you asked this man to die; Would this man, could he see you now, ask why ?: W. H. Auden: "Epitaph for an Unknown Soldier"

Kristina M. Gronquist calls it the OLD LIE ~ Dulce et decorum est - Pro patria mori ( To die for one’s country is sweet and becoming )

It's from the poem “Dulce et decorum est” by the English poet Wilfred Owen, 1893 -1918, killed at the front a few days before the Armistice and nothing could be further from the truth.

Here's an excerpt from Gronquist's timeless article written on Memorial Day 2005 ~ " The media will continue, this weekend, to suppress the truth, which is that the war in Iraq is a massive foreign policy failure; Iraq is a failed state, an incredibly chaotic unstable mess where tens of thousands of Iraqis have died needlessly. Unworried Americans will say we can’t judge Iraq yet, we have to “wait and see,” because down the road, if oil rich Iraq becomes a (Western-style) democracy “it will all be worth it”. These are such easy words to utter, from the armchair experts on democracy for Muslims, so smug with remote controls in-hand. Yes, tell the loved ones of one million dead Iraqis that someday the deaths of their family members will all be worth it, as your own children scurry about safe and warm...
On Memorial Day we will blithely ignore the massive protest and hatred that our polices, occupations, torture and wrongful imprisonment have inspired in the Muslim and Arab world. Come to think of it, many Europeans, Latin Americans and Africans aren’t enthralled with our foreign policies either. But an empire can ignore the common sense of the global masses of people who oppose war, and we can easily choose not to try to understand root causes of anti-American sentiment. C’mon ­- America, it’s Memorial Day, tune that negative reality out and turn on your television for yet another glorious war hero story." http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article8970.htm

We must now face the hard cold reality that War is an insurmountable human waste and an old recycled lie ~ not a cause for glorification and celebration ~ and then demand action from our political leaders to end this waste by no longer funding our foreign wars and occupations.

“War will exist until that distant day when the conscientious objector enjoys the same reputation and prestige that the warrior does today.”-- John F. Kennedy

“The most important topic on earth: peace. What kind of peace do we seek? Not a Pax Americana enforced on the world by American weapons of war. Not the peace of the grave or the security of the slave. I am talking about genuine peace, the kind of peace that makes life on earth worth living, the kind that enables men and nations to grow and to hope and to build a better life for their children ~ not merely peace for Americans but peace for all men and women ~ not merely peace in our time but peace for all time.”- John F. Kennedy, American University commencement address, Washington, 10 June 1963. (Four months later Kennedy was assassinated.)

Mohandas Gandhi said it best ~ What difference does it make to the dead, the orphans and the homeless, whether the mad destruction of war is wrought under the name of totalitarianism or in the holy name of liberty and democracy?

As such, the greatest threat to world peace right now is the war mongers, such as the United States. Hermann Hesse put it bluntly ~ "The greatest threat to our world and its peace comes from those who want war, who prepare for it, and who, by holding out vague promises of future peace or by instilling fear of foreign aggression, try to make us accomplices to their plans”

OBAMA MYTH MAKING / DESIGNED FOR SHEEPLE

President Barack Obama’s refusal to release photos and DNA of his supposed assassination of a questionably alive Bin Laden spanks of his trademark lack of transparency except when it is politically expedient ~ but it is also step three in Myth making as Obama kicks off his re-election campaign which is designed for the sheeple : Allen L Roland

The Obama hyped Bin Laden assassination myth is riddled with so many inaccuracies that it’s being openly mocked on the internet such as in this supposedly secret footage released from the Osama raid Video: 30 seconds http://www.brasschecktv.com/page/1101.html

Myth making is relatively simple when your target audience is sheeple who are more than willing to accept the administration’s deceits and fabrications ~ for to do otherwise would personally be deeply humiliating. Here is the typical myth making four step process;

Step One is create the event ~ without verification except the leader’s word ( Think 9/11 official story )

Step Two is destroy the evidence ~ relying once again on the leader’s word ( Think 9/11 trade center scrap steel crime scene evidence being sent to Taiwan and South Korea )

Step Three is celebrating the great victory ~ although still unconfirmed by anyone except the leader and his minions ( Think GW Bush’s Mission accomplished in Iraq )

Step Four is completely disqualifying the target ~ to justify the leaders illegal actions (Think Saddam and weapons of Mass Destruction, think Bin Laden with supposedly found pornography video tapes as well as never proven involvement with 9/11 )

But the Bin Laden raid story continues to rapidly unravel as many eye witnesses question the official Obama report. Here’s the latest ~ according to Gordon Duff, Senior editor of Veteran’s Today: Bin Laden Raid Operation Was Not Successful - Eye Witness Claims: A Pakistan news agency reports that the bin Laden raid on Abbottabad was aborted because of a helicopter crash which killed several passengers, believed to be Pashtu speaking Americans. See story ~ http://www.veteranstoday.com/2011/05/16/unconfirmed-american-deaths-helicopter-crash-bin-laden-capture-aborted/

The term Sheeple is often used to denote persons who voluntarily acquiesce to a perceived authority figure's suggestion without critical analysis or sufficient research to understand the ramifications of that decision. By doing so, Sheeple undermine their own individuality and may willingly give up their rights. The implication of the term is that people fallaciously appeal to authority and believe or do what they are told by perceived authority figures who they view as trustworthy. The term is generally used in a political, social, and sometimes spiritual sense.

IIn other words, It’s taking the blue pill of eternal unquestioned government allegiance or bondage and submitting to authority versus the red pill of critical thinking, individuality and searching for the truth. Morpheus explains it all to Neo in the Matrix ~ "Neo, Like everyone else, you were born into bondage, born inside a prison that you cannot smell, taste, or touch. A prison for your mind. Unfortunately, no one can be told what the Matrix is. You have to see it for yourself. " The Matrix (1999) Four minute video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=te6qG4yn-Ps

FUKUSHIMA / DEADLY SILENCE

The Main Stream Press continues to ignore Fukushima but the two month catastrophe continues unabated as TEPCO now admits it lied about the severity of the damage to reactor #1 and that a nuclear meltdown has occurred that continues to release deadly amounts of radiation comparable to Chernobyl: Allen L Roland

Over 60 days have passed since the Fukushima nuclear catastrophe but the main stream press continues to downplay the ramifications of this continuing radioactive disaster.

Engineers from the Tokyo Electric Power company (TEPCO) entered the No.1 reactor at the end of last week for the first time and saw the top five feet or so of the core's 13ft-long fuel rods had been exposed to the air and melted down. That’s the first time that Japanese officials have admitted that one of their reactors at the crippled Fukushima Daiichi power plant has had a nuclear meltdown.

Greenpeace has urged Tepco to abandon plans to flood the container with water, given the likelihood that melted fuel has damaged it. Shaun Burnie, nuclear adviser to Greenpeace Germany, said: "Flooding a reactor that has fuel [that has fallen] through the pressure vessel is not a good idea."

Outlining a worst-case scenario, Burnie said very large amounts of cold water hitting the melted fuel could cause an explosion, trigger substantial damage to the reactor and create a "high risk of atmospheric release running for days, if not weeks." He added: "I think [the flooding option] will now be scrapped.

Greenpeace also said significant amounts of radioactive material had been released into the sea and that samples of seaweed taken from as far as 40 miles of the Fukushima plant had been found to contain radiation well above legal limits. Of the 22 samples tested, ten were contaminated with five times the legal limit of iodine 131 and 20 times of cesium 137. Seaweed is a huge part of the Japanese diet and the average household almost 7lbs a year. Greenpeace's warning came as fishermen prepared to start the harvest of this season's seaweed on May 20.

It’s the blind leading the blind in this deteriorating crisis and the Japanese public and the World still does not know the true extent of this growing disaster that definitely has ramifications for the West Coast of the United States and the world in general.

Vivian Norris, Huffington Post, commented recently on the current deadly silence of Fukushima ~ “I received the following email a few days ago from a Russian nuclear physicist friend who is an expert on the kinds of gases being released at Fukushima. Here is what he wrote: "About Japan: the problem is that the reactor uses "dirty" fuel. It is a combination of plutonium and uranium (MOX). I suspect that the old fuel rods have been spread out due to the explosion and the surrounding area is contaminated with plutonium which means you can never return to this place again. It is like a new Chernobyl. Personally, I am not surprised that the authority has not informed people about this.” http://www.huffingtonpost.com/vivian-norris-de-montaigu/deadly-silence-on-fukushi_b_859241.html

Norris ended her article with this appeal ~ “People need answers, data and honest information to help them deal with what is going on. Media blackouts, propaganda and greedy self-interested industries, of any kind, who allow human beings' health to be affected, and deaths to occur, must be stopped now. That senior TEPCO man and the leading nuclear academic in Japan did not break down crying and resign their positions because all was well at Fukushima. Think about it world, and act now before it is too late.”

Arnie Gundersen, was a high level nuclear executive for years and analyzes the information he has been receiving in a calm and scientific way but his latest May 13^th ten minute update is worth watching in light of current developments ~ Gundersen reveals that all four reactors are in severe shape and that the “Fukushima Groundwater Contamination is the Worst in Nuclear History". http://ampedstatus.com/video.php

Only when the last tree has died and the last river been poisoned and the last fish been caught will we realize we cannot eat money." Cree Indian Proverb

MEMO TO THE PRESIDENT / FROM DICK CHENEY

From deep inside his self imposed Bunker, Dick ‘Darth Vader’ Cheney emails President Obama with advice on walking on the dark side and useful counsel regarding lies, deceptions and end game strategies. In a world of growing deceit and political manipulation ~ quite often only satire is capable of disseminating the truth. Wake up, America, we’re obviously still being bamboozled : Allen L Roland

Memo to President Obama

From: Dick Cheney ( currently working on his memoirs tentatively titled My Ride On The Dark Side )

Congratulations on your visit to the dark side, Barack ~ as witnessed by your recently staged but increasingly bungled assassination of Osama Bin Laden. Of course, we both know that Bin Laden died in 2001 of a natural death from Kidney failure but who cares about the truth ~ it’s the myth that counts whether he or it is dead or alive ~ think Al Qaeda (chuckle).

By the way, those Pentagon released videos are really pretty feeble (chuckle) ~ Particularly the one supposedly showing Bin Laden watching himself on TV ~ The guy with the remote isn't recognizable, you cannot actually see what’s on the TV screen ~ and according to the FBI, the real Osama was left-handed, while the man in the video is using his right hand for the remote control ~ Whose producing this junk?

If you’re going to ride on the dark side, for God sake don’t ride side saddle !

You must recall that the Washington Post reported last year on how CIA officials recruited “darker-skinned employees” to create fake Bin Laden tapes. The fact that the CIA created fake Bin Laden tapes is an admitted fact, not a conspiracy theory ~ which obviously negates the authenticity of these videos. So your Dubious Bin Laden “Home Movies” are identical to tapes released 4 years ago by Pentagon Front Group ~ here’s the story http://www.infowars.com/hoax-white-house-claims-4-year-old-bin-laden-tapes-are-new-footage/

Your story line is unraveling faster than a speeding bullet, Barack ~ In a BBC News report, Orla Guerin interviewed dozens of people who were adamant that Bin Laden did not live in the compound, with none of them ever witnessing him or hearing rumors that he was there in the five years that Obama claimed Bin Laden was a resident in the town.“It’s all a fake, nothing happened,” said a newspaper seller who has been working in the town for 50 years. Another resident told Guerin that the man seen in the video footage of Osama allegedly flicking between television channels is in fact his neighbor, not Bin Laden.“His name is Akhbar Han, he owns the house they said was Osama’s house, I know him very well,” the man stated. Two minute BBC video http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-south-asia-13329078

And yesterday, Iran's intelligence minister, Heidar Moslehi said “We have accurate information that bin Laden died of illness some time ago”.

Jeezus, Boy ~ You’re better off now not releasing any more of those obvious Bin Laden video re-runs and play the patriotism card in light of your lack of any direct evidence of a Bin Laden kill. Remember, there was no question that we, of course I mean our Iraqi puppet government, hanged Saddam ~ now those were really grisly pictures (sneer ) and we were not afraid to show them to the sheeple.

If you’re going to sell a lie, you’d better build the personal drama and call it the longest 40 minutes of your life ~ remember your credibility and re-election is on the line, Boy! And no more staged ‘Situation Room’ photos ~ you looked like they just pulled you off the golf course, which apparently really happened, and Hillary looks like she’s stifling a yawn (chuckle).

You’re also obviously aware that we’ve always wanted to prolong the bogus War on Terror for as long as possible. Now that most of the sheeple are aware of the fact that the War on Terror is a complete fraud, it becomes especially important to keep the game going and this Bin Laden event should serve that purpose if you milk it for all its worth ~ think 9/11 (chuckle).

Suggestion ~ Continue to surround yourself with cheering troops like you did last weekend at Fort Campbell with the Airborne saying “Job, well done ! Remember, you’re the Commander In Chief ~ as I once was (wistfully) Whoops ! Don’t tell that to George W !

Remember, it’s not about being loved, it’s all about being feared, but I digress ~

For your information ~ David Ray Griffin’s book titled, “Osama Bin Laden: Dead or Alive?” written in 2009 provided convincing objective and testimonial evidence of his mid-December 2001 death, of natural causes, not a commando hit squad getting their man ~ but the Main Stream Press has thankfully squashed that information and hopefully they’ll continue to do the same now.

Getting rid of the forensic evidence by supposedly throwing Bin Laden in the sea was original at best although risky since there is no actual body ~ but the sheeple will buy it just like they never investigated why all of the ground zero steel was sent off to Taiwan and South Korea after 9/11 ~ no forensic evidence, no case ( chuckle ). You might even want to demolish the compound in Abbottabad while your at it ~ again, no crime scene evidence protects your butt ~ remember how Rudy Giuliani recycled and shipped the steel (evidence) from the exploded WTC. ( Rudi’s a blatant and corrupt kiss ass but he came through for us that day )

I also like the idea that you are admitting that torture was necessary to get the necessary intelligence information for this Bin Laden hit ~ it takes some legal pressure off of George W. and myself in regards to our work on the dark side. Do remember your promise to us about not opening any investigation into torture, rendition or our treatment of prisoners at Guantanamo. What the Guantanamo files recently released by WikiLeaks show is that the claims we made about the threat the detainees posed to the US and its allies and interests was simply untrue ( a lie ) and although we knew the prisoners were innocent, we refused to set them free because of the political repercussions that would have ensued. That’s dangerously close to the truth boy, I mean Mr. President, and it can’t go any further or our whole 9/11 cover story will begin to unravel ~ since most of those 9/11 confessions were torture induced. As I said last Sunday, I would reinstate the practice of water boarding if I were president or as you would say enhanced interrogation methods (chuckle).

Speaking of 9/11 ~ Beware of this Dr. Steve R. Pieczenik fellow ~ He’s held numerous different influential positions under three different Presidents and still works with the Defense Department, and he alarmingly told The Alex Jones Show yesterday that Osama Bin Laden died in 2001 and that he was prepared to testify in front of a grand jury how a top general told him directly that 9/11 was a false flag inside job.

We may have a giant problem here and you’d better get on top of this ~

Pieczenik cannot be dismissed as a “conspiracy theorist”. He served as the Deputy Assistant Secretary of State under three different administrations, Nixon, Ford and Carter, while also working under Reagan and Bush senior, and still works as a consultant for the Department of Defense. A former US Navy Captain, Pieczenik achieved two prestigious Harry C. Solomon Awards at the Harvard Medical School as he simultaneously completed a PhD at MIT.

Here’s what he had to say about your recent Bin Laden hit ~ “This whole scenario where you see a bunch of people sitting there looking at a screen and they look as if they’re intense, that’s nonsense,” referring to the images released by the White House which claim to show Biden, yourself and Hillary Clinton watching the operation to kill Bin Laden live on a television screen. “It’s a total make-up, make believe, we’re in an American theater of the absurd….why are we doing this again….nine years ago this man was already dead….why does the government repeatedly have to lie to the American people,” asked Pieczenik. “Osama Bin Laden was totally dead, so there’s no way they could have attacked or confronted or killed Osama “said Pieczenik, joking that the only way it could have happened was if special forces had attacked a mortuary.

That’s a dangerous question, and you and I know the answer ~ if the American people knew the whole truth, starting with 9/11, we’d be in Guantanamo and that includes you too, Mr. President.

Unfortunately, Barack ~ Pieczenik’s assertion that Bin Laden died almost ten years ago is echoed by numerous intelligence professionals as well as heads of state across the world.

Pieczenik unfortunately correctly stated ~ “ Bin Laden was used in the same way that 9/11 was used to mobilize the emotions and feelings of the American people in order to go to a war that had to be justified through a narrative that Bush junior and Cheney created about the world of terrorists”.

And again during his interview with the Alex Jones Show last week, Pieczenik also asserted he was directly told by a prominent general that 9/11 was a stand down and a false flag operation, and that he is prepared to go to a grand jury to reveal the general’s name ~ and I unfortunately know who that General is (sigh ).

“They ran the attacks,” said Pieczenik, naming Myself, Paul Wolfowitz, Stephen Hadley, Elliott Abrams, and Condoleezza Rice amongst others as having been directly involved. ( another nervous sigh )

Here’s the link, Barack ~ read it and weep! Remember, you’re supposed to be protecting our butts!

Look Barack, the last refuge for scoundrels is patriotism ~ George and I used it to the max and the sheeple always respond. After this apparent Bin Laden debacle, I’m afraid you’re getting dangerously close to the scoundrel level so play the patriotism card to the hilt ~ visit ground Zero, honor the Navy Seals, hand out medals and start saying 9/11 and Al Qaeda (which we both know is a CIA sponsored myth) at least twice a day and for Christ’s sake ~ wear your America Flag lapel pin as I always proudly do.

Author note: Isn’t this what Eisenhower was warning about in his farewell speech: Beware the Military-Industrial Complex, these are the guys who want nothing more than war from one end of the planet to another because it's how they make money and expand their power.

Or as Paul Krugman, NY Times, correctly writes ~ “We’re paying a heavy price for Washington’s obsession with phantom menaces. By looking for trouble in all the wrong places, our political class is preventing us from dealing with the real crisis ~ the millions of American men and women who can’t find work”

Unfortunately, Carl Sagan’s bamboozle effect still reins in America ~ that is when you have been bamboozled long enough by lies and deceptions, you begin to believe the bamboozle and any evidence to the contrary is either ignored, rejected or you’re no longer interested in finding out the truth. It is, quite simply, too painful to acknowledge, especially to ourselves, that we’re been so credulous or gullible ~ so the old bamboozles (like the 9/11 cover up) tend to persist as the new bamboozles rise (the Bin Laden assassination story).

Wake up, America ~ we’re obviously still being bamboozled!
