Glad you mentioned Cheney, Jean. Perhaps the most dangerous member of the group of Albright, Bolton, Wolfowitz, Perle, Nuland, Pompeo, Clinton (the Queen bee of death) and almost anyone who assisted in the administration of US crimes from Lyndon Johnson onwards. At times like this, one can still remember the privileged White House group watching 'the great charade'…...Bin Laden’s body being dumped into the sea. A classic.
A special Hans Christian Andersen production. Then there’s JFK (Johnson), 9/11 (Bush), Laos, Cambodia (Johnson/Nixon), WMD (Bush again) and on it goes.
Having just completed re-reading the books of Chalmers Johnson,"The last Days of American Republic" and "Blowback", the crimes so well documented in The "Host and the Parasite" by Greg Felton and the Patriot Act comment "Extreme Prejudice" by Susan Lindauer, I have to ask how could all these crimes occur; just when did American values start to decline; the disgrace that was Iraq and all that meant; how a person like Clinton is not in prison instead of probably throwing her hat into the US election ring in 2024; why Bush has not been charged by the ICC with a death score of up to two million people during his reign.
Still free and lauded at public gatherings. A frightening thought.
But Julian Assange is still in prison.
Here in little Australia we have just indicted an ex-SAS soldier who served in Afghanistan for having shot one, ….just one unarmed Afghan in that disgraceful exhibition of US stupidity, Australian stupidity being the same as US stupidity...all tarred with the same brush that is, Anglo by biological inheritance, Christian in the main, white in colour and Western in thinking and self-deluded as exceptional. The qualities required for being part of the master race, similar to the Netanyahu Jews, known (certainly not affectionately) as 'the chosen people'. Where do we get these gross ideas?
The world as it is now must be sheeted home to Presidents like Bush, Obama, Biden, Trump and their needs to employ people with the characteristics of the above. When you add to that the UK’s Blair, and US sycophantic prime Ministers in Canada, then in Australia, dipping their lid to all, yes, even as far back as the 1960’s to a Lyndon Johnson, a Zionist-supporting criminal if ever there was one in that role, we have a world that allows the greatest of all crimes to go unpunished….like Bush / WMD.
Ask the remaining crew members of the USS Liberty, the trigger for the expansion and inhumane crimes by Israel since 1967, still under way as part of the great Israel objective, “Eretz Israel”. Still so today, but even more arrogant than in the past. They learnt all their tricks and now control everything the US does.
One crime creates the accepted climate for the next one to follow, until in the end, the first one is not really a crime at all, but the norm. And so on it goes from there. No way back..
Yes. So true and so heartbreaking. And maddening. As we have both lived thru these events you’ve described ( are you really in your 70’s? ) I’m sure we’ve been looking for the “cause” of this spiral down into our present ugly state for many years. Myself, I blame Truman with commissioning the CIA which lead to the security state doing most of the things you’ve described. Including elevating Israel (cynically) so we could have a bulwark against the Arabs in the Middle East as we went in to take over British oil interests. And of course who were those criminals but the glorious winners of the WW2, hailed by Europe as heroes. So it goes back a long ass way. And yet is no different from the killing off of the Natives, the importing of slaves, the oppression of women in a new constitutional state for “free men” etc etc etc that goes back to the very foundation of my country. In the end, I think its just patriarchy in a new toga, throwing out the monarchies and using a new excuse—free men—to make war in order to get rich and be dominant and be “elite”. And we have followed that nightmare, calling it a dream, to its bitter end, winding up with tools of war that could end life on this planet and tools of convenience that are ending life on this planet. We need a new paradigm and I think it has to be Mother Earth based, with lots of personal spiritual growth, and lots of cooperative sentiments and ideals. But it’s gonna take a miracle to get there. In the meantime, eat cake and keep the fires burning. The Phoenix is bound to rise from them sometime.
