The Bush-Cheney regime is America’s first neoconservative regime. In a few short years, the regime has destroyed the Bill of Rights, the separation of powers, the Geneva Conventions, and the remains of America’s moral reputation along with the infrastructures of two Muslim countries and countless thousands of Islamic civilians. Plans have been prepared, and forces moved into place, for an attack on a third Islamic country, Iran, and perhaps Syria and Hezbollah in Lebanon as well.
The Bush-Cheney regime came to power with the plans drawn to attack the remaining independent countries in the Middle East and with neoconservatives in office to implement the plans. However, an excuse was required. Neoconservatives had called for "a new Pearl Harbor," and 9/11 provided the propaganda event needed in order to stampede the public and Congress into war. Neoconservative Philip Zelikow was put in charge of the 9/11 Commission Report to make certain no uncomfortable facts emerged.
When the American people caught on that the "war on terror" was a cloak for wars of aggression, they put Democrats in control of Congress in order to apply a brake to the regime’s warmongering. However, the Democrats have proven to be impotent to stop the neoconservative drive to wider war and, perhaps, world conflagration. We are witnessing the triumph of a dozen evil men over American democracy and a free press.
Paul Craig Roberts | Americans Have Lost Their Country
Best piece I've read in a long time.
A dummy's guide to end times scripted by crazed freaks with parboiled brains. In particular, I like Roberts's open approach to 911 which, worldwide, is coming to be accepted as an inside job — a shocking charade of unimaginable evil and mind-numbing simplicity, orchestrated by those steering the Bush Regime.
No longer need Bruce, or other USians of conscience, feel so alone...
But perhaps focusing on the Pearl Harbor incident detracts from the article's merit. It's pithy and, without pointing too far into the future, i.e. China, Russia, and the collapse of the dollar, gives the lowdown on what's up in 1,000 words.
Like good Germans, Americans have lost their country. And a whole lot more...
By the way, George Galloway's piece in the Guardian, These orchestrated attacks on Chávez are a travesty, is a damned good, cost-effective response to the over-the-top, million-dollar rhetoric pumping from the U.S. media machine.
For a couple of minutes, it clears the stench of US-opean foreign policy and makes a better world seem feasible.
Unfortunately, reality bites...
