<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Hello, Brian, et al.: <br>
<br>
<br>
Thanks, Brian, for this. If enough of the humans calling
hear things like this, they might begin to work for positive
change. <br>
<br>
<br>
I will outline here my plan for dealing with this, in the
hopes that you or others would like to volunteer to help: <br>
<br>
<br>
1. BACKGROUND: <br>
<br>
<br>
1.1. The earliest, most obvious event in US history
similar to what you describe was when President Washington sent US
tax money to plantation owners in Haiti to help them suppress a
slave rebellion during the French revolution. I do not criticize
Washington: There were slaves in all 13 original states at that
time, and the union might not have survived if he had done
anything different. More generally, the primary constituency for
foreign policy in any nation are people who have routine business
interests elsewhere. These people want, and have routinely
received, US support for state terror from virtually every
administration in US history. The only restraint on that is the
need to invent an acceptable myth to support that. From 1946 to
1991, this policy was packaged under the rubric of the Cold War.
Since 2001, it has been packaged as a "War on Terror". However,
it is essentially the same policy followed by President Washington
in sending US tax money to plantation owners in Haiti in the
1790s. It's time we grow up. <br>
<br>
<br>
1.2. The consolidation in ownership of the media in
the 1980s and 1990s led to massive reductions in investigative
journalism. This has contributed to runaway inflation in in the
cost of getting elected to high public office, funded by runaway
inflation in crony capitalism / welfare for the wealthy. A
partial analysis of this appears under "The Crisis in US Politics
& Economics" at occupy.pbworks.com (<a
href="http://occupy.pbworks.com/w/page/47721637/FrontPage">http://occupy.pbworks.com/w/page/47721637/FrontPage</a>).
<br>
<br>
<br>
2. EFFECTIVE DEFENSE AND U S FOREIGN POLICY <br>
<br>
<br>
2.1. I believe the weight of the available evidence
indicates that the US has no substantive enemies on the
international stage other than ones we have earned by supporting
state terror in opposition to liberty and justice for all. <br>
<br>
<br>
2.2. I founded "effectivedefense.org" to try to
organize in one place the best and most conservative evidence
supporting this claim. One idea is to create a table on the web
of all the members of the United Nations with a brief summary of
what is well documented about previous US intervention in their
internal affairs and their potential impacts for good or bad with
links to what experts across the political spectrum have to say
about it. I believe we can show that the US has no substantive
enemies on the international stage, we can get more traction with
talking about the fraudulent nature of the war on terror. <br>

A Democratic fund raiser phoned yesterday. I said, "Whoopee!
The War Crimes<br>
Party!" <br>
<br>
He said "What what war crimes?"<br>
<br>
I said "Bombing countries with which we are not at war and which
pose no military<br>
threat to us and killing noncombatants are war crimes under the
Nuremberg <br>
Principles."<br>
<br>
He said, "Well, all presidents do that."<br>
<br>
That is the "New Normal" that Obama has created. I am not
particularly angry at <br>
Obama. I never had any illusions that he would be anything
other than the <br>
murdering, lying, criminal scumbag that he is. I am angry at
his hypocritical <br>
supporters who rationalize away his crimes and pretend they
don't exist. <br>
<br>
All these years in the 9/11 Truth movement I have argued that we
must avoid <br>
indulging in self-defeating self-expression and seek to maximize
political effectiveness<br>
in the mainstream. I am now so disgusted that I've lost
interest in the mainstream <br>
and effectiveness. I just want to express my rage at those who
go along with the <br>
program of government by men not laws, and of the end of simple
human <br>
decency--a program that may have started in a haze of Mad Cowboy
lunacy but <br>
which Obama is in cold blood cementing into national culture.<br>
<br>
The man should be in the jailhouse, not in the White House.<br>
