СКАЧАТЬ of international law, such as:

      - Our unilaterally act of aggression without being attacked.

      - Our bombing of the Iraqi people with radioactive material.

      - Our prisoner torture tactics.

      Hasn’t our bully like “War Crimes” embarrassed the United States throughout the entire world? And more recently, the possible treasonous outing of one of our own CIA agent’s only further questions our ethics. Although our President suggests these decisions are his to make, [even though he works for us] none of these acts fall within sound political judgment. Shouldn’t Saddam’s trial and hanging been authorized by the International World Court in The Hague? - just as this country once demanded in the Nuremberg Trials that were held from 1945 to 1949, involving the Nazi Holocaust and the corrupt German officers of World War II. In retrospect, it’s now obvious that the United States has failed the world, by pushing our close allies to the brink with our ridiculous demands that ignore the Geneva Convention, as well as all six of the previous Geneva related agreements we’ve signed. Just how could we, as a leading nation, openly degrade our once flawless image? And aren’t we even angered by this new definition of torture? Weren’t we embarrassed by this country’s demand for absolute immunity for all U.S. Military personnel and civilian officials prior to the Iraq war - just so we could remain free from prosecution for war crimes by the International Criminal Court? Hasn’t the Patriot Act taken us back to the Alien & Sedition Act of 1796, where the Federalist elite previously attempted to take full control of our government, using the threat of attack by hostile forces as the excuse to enact the Sedition Act, which created the following laws?

      - branded their political opponents as traitors

      - made it a crime for American citizens to “print, utter, or publish . . . any false, scandalous, and malicious writing” about the Government

      - imprisoned their most outspoken verbal critics

      - allowed aliens to be imprisoned or deported at the whim of the president

      - had the intent of keeping the Federalists in power indefinitely, perpetuating its control of the government (2)

      Isn’t this similar to our Patriot Act, which attempts to brainwash the working class into believing our appointed tribunals can convict people on circumstantial evidence?

      Do we really believe a free nation, should ever use “Gestapo” like tactics to torture ones victims into false confessions?

      The infamous Hitler Storm Trooper “Hermann Goering” said it very well at the Nuremberg Trials after World War II:

      “Why of course the people don’t want war ... But after all, it is the leaders of the country who determine the policy, and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship . . . Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is to tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger.”(3)

      The Financial Times of London published a commentary on July 2, 2002 under the headline “US Takes Chance to Target Peacekeeping,” saying:

      “Donald Rumsfeld [US Defense Secretary] and John Bolton [US under-secretary for arms control and international security] are smiling like the cat who swallowed the canary. They’ve got two of their demons in sight . . . hard line conservatives, such as Mr. Bolton, Mr. Rumsfeld and Condoleezza Rice - believe they can ‘kill peacekeeping and the ICC with one stone.’ . . .

      Condoleezza Rice, Bush’s national security advisor at that time, spelled out her outlook in an article in Foreign Affairs magazine, saying:

      ‘The president must remember that the military is a special instrument. It is lethal and is meant to be. It is not a civilian police force. It is not a political referee. And it is most certainly not designed to build a civilian society.’” (4)

      Does all this sound like the United States is really promoting freedom for Iraq? Shouldn’t we be asking ourselves why this nation ever promoted and passed, “The Netherlands Invasion Act,” which allows our U.S. Military to rescue any U.S. Personnel brought to trial in “The Hague.” Doesn’t this expose the complete lack of equality for other nations, while destroying the very basic freedoms so many of us once fought for? Didn’t this nation once set a shining example to others, rather than this steady diet of embarrassing acts and preemptive wars that we’re now all ashamed of?

      During World War II, those soldiers that returned, all experienced the terrible aftermath of killing and vowed that war should only be a last resort after all other alternatives were exhausted. Shouldn’t we be evaluating why our twentieth century closed with almost thirty-five thousand American-air sorties bombing Serbia and Kosovo, under the direction of the United Nations? And although those particular acts of war may have been justified, do we really understand that we destroyed almost all of the Yugoslavian power and water filtration plants, railroads, bridges, and a majority of their petroleum reserves - essentially annihilating the Yugoslavian culture and its small industrial and social infrastructures for years to come. Paradoxically, the twenty-first century started with a similar destruction of Afghanistan - and now, more recently, the United States has unilaterally initiated this ridiculous preemptive act of religious aggression against Iraq, a country of less than twenty-six million people, with Lebanon, Jerusalem, Iran, and Syria and the entire region of the Middle East probably next in line. As a result, North Korea, China, and even Russia are all taking steps to protect themselves from our apparent worldwide colonization and policing tactics. Yes, America is once again becoming very familiar with the scars of war, scars that will never heal for the thousands of families both here and abroad that have been touched by death or injury, all because of our reckless decision to take this country to war before all other efforts were exhausted. Could it be that these Shadowed Money Barons intentionally create these endless skirmishes so they can make huge profits? Current estimates for rebuilding all these countries exceed trillions of dollars per state, which is far more than any of these now dependent colonies can ever afford. And since their GNP has dropped so dramatically, the United States, and particularly “We the People,” [the working class] will never be able to regain the minimal prosperity we once enjoyed. Therefore, our tax dollars will play a major role in the recovery of so many countries well into the future and certainly well into the twenty-first century. But worse yet, while we as Americans are spending enormous amounts of tax dollars on revitalizing and redirecting all these other nations, we’re not revitalizing our own floundering economy, which is presently riddled with corrupt un-audited no-bid contracts for these wealthy Money Barons; trillions of dollars in loans and deficits; the decentralization of human services to humankind; and the obvious deregulation of standards while our dysfunctional government over regulates our own citizens. And since all these small foreign states were actually stripped of their sovereignty, our military occupation will be required for years and years, as more and more American soldiers are being forced to leave their families and perhaps even die to protect almost eight hundred military bases we currently operate in other countries, which aren’t very happy that we Americans are there. Iraq, the Middle East, France, Germany, Russia and China, all wonder if the United States isn’t unilaterally deploying this country’s military force for geopolitical and economic advantage. And many now question this unrealistic quest for “Worldwide Freedom,” under a “One World Order” when it’s very likely these Invisible Money Barons are only interested in their profits and the total control of the rich СКАЧАТЬ
