OCW Primer: The First Victory Will Be for Truth

THE LOOK OF SOMEONE "INVENTING A FACT"

A History and Culture, A Foundation of Lies

 

By Gordon Duff, Senior Editor

 

This didn’t just happen and it wasn’t an accident.  One day we woke up, found ourselves in wars a decade old, wars over terrorism, we are told.  Those few, now millions, who looked, who asked, who were real Americans learned it was all a lie, the terrorism, the disappearing jobs, the phony news, the crooked government, the rigged elections, the torture, the airport nightmares, it was all planned, all pre-staged to create an American slave state.

In 2000, the Supreme Court, by a 5/4 decision, placed a dangerous psychotic, a dictator, into the presidency.  America had been going back to work, not the same high paying jobs but a start, America had been paying its bills, budget surpluses, no wars, no terrorism, good relationships around the world, no “Homeland Security” or wiretapping.

A nation that paid its bills, treated the world with respect and worked for a living was turned into a police state, constitutional rights suspended, a decade now, economic collapse, multiple wars, imaginary enemies, hated by every nation on earth, all built around one face, that of George W. Bush.

What was behind him?

Wall Street for sure, he would push deregulation and America would collapse.  Were there a free press, the story of the planning and execution of 9/11 would be known by every child as the day the rich and powerful decided democracy had to die.  The story would have been better if Americans had fought back, demanded a restoration of the constitution, and end to the illegal wars and execution for hundreds, prison for tens of thousands that took part in overthrowing our government.

The problem is, we are still “overthrown.”  Electing Obama didn’t end the nightmare. 

If this were 2001 and we didn’t know the Iraq War, a massive undertaking that cost trillions, killed two million civilians, disabled half a million American servicemen and women, killed thousands of American soldiers was a criminal act conceived by an illegal American government, I could understand some people better.  If Iraq was a war purposefully staged by criminals who control our government, something that has been totally exposed, imagining 9/11 as part of that same plan is only common sense.

“Common sense” is a rare commodity in America today.  Real solutions, as things have gone so far, involve more than politics.  We are down to street protests, the mass arrests need to be police, judges, mayors, even congress, not those protesting the criminal acts of others. 

The current police state tactics to silence dissent tells me only one thing.  Until freedom is restored, America is to be fought against, not for.  The troops that are coming home from war are now taking their positions on the battlefront here at home, used up, abused, lied to and exploited, their very real patriotism has managed to survive.  American patriots, a word so often used to hide scoundrels and thieves, real Americans want “real America” back.

To get “real America” back, those who believe they are in control need a lesson.  Peacefully bringing America to a total halt is a start.  It is now clear that organized crime, by that I mean the government, is willing to break any law, destroy anyone that threatens their “turf.”  The easy prediction is domestic terrorism, planned and executed by police and private security and blamed on freedom loving Americans.  It has already started and it will escallate, be assured of that.

Over a year ago, Fox News exposed 9/11 as a government conspiracy.  The most biased TV network out of an act of incredible courage was, however, quickly silenced.  Many Americans pretend they never learned the truth.  The whole truth was never allowed, Israel’s complicity or the fact that Al Qaeda was an invention of the CIA.

The plan was that we were supposed to be frightened into complacency or join the “Tea Party,” the sham “controlled opposition.”  The movement to restore America became the loudest voice for Facism, for the police state, the loudest liars, the petty thugs working for Wall Street and its clones in London, Zurich and Tel Aviv.

Many of us know to what extent 9/11 was a criminal act conceived in Washington, in New York and in Tel Aviv.  We know it can be proven but we also know that powerful forces are protecting the criminals.  On the other hand, the war crimes of Afghanistan and Iraq are clear as day.  There is no disagreement.  The entire Bush regime is guilty of waging a criminal war, of murder, of torture, from the president down.  We have their confessions,  the laws are clear as day yet the criminals continue to wallow in wealth and walk free while millions of Americans languish in prisons, a suspiciously large number of them quite probably innocent of any crime.

We have a similar case with the worldwide economic meltdown.  These weren’t miscalculations.   This was pure theft.  Every act a crime, easily proven, tens of thousands involved, their names long known, the proof of their guilt part of the public record but they roam the earth free also, wallowing in stolen wealth.

Then we look at Washington.  In the last week or so, stories have leaked into the press that a few key legislators have been involved in stock frauds.  They can’t be punished as congress passed laws exempting itself from law.

I am not kidding.

Civil and criminal law as we know it doesn’t apply to members of our government, not unless they have powerful enemies among the criminal elite.

It is a good guess that 70% of the members of congress are involved in conflicts of interest or have accepted money that would make them, by any legal standard, felons.

Then there are the simple issues of “representation” and elections.  Many states have congressional districts that aren’t even contiguous, carefully designed, some weaving over 150 miles, in such a way as to disenfranchise voters and deny fair government.

During the first “Bush election,” we learned that voting machines had been “hacked” to “flip” up to 6 million votes.  “Exit polling” is the most accurate statistical model imaginable, has been around for years but is no longer used.  It had always been able to predict election results down to the decimal point.

Now it is “off” by  huge margins. 

Why?

We have no elections.  Though many regions use paper ballots or are abandoning the machines that rigged so many elections, the damage is done.  Laws have been passed, rights taken, criminal “police state” bureaucracies are in control and there is no America to save.

Even John McCain, the Senator from Arizona and unsuccessful presidential candidate, so often tied to organized crime, admits that both political parties in America are hopeless.

In truth, one is entirely controlled by Wall Street and the Israel lobby, that being the Republican party.  It rents out to organized crime, drug dealers and oil companies when needed but its real purpose is to enslave America.  This criminal organization has so debased itself that its current group of presidential candidates have become a laughing stock.

You just saw me mention “the Israel lobby.”  95% of Americans don’t know what this means or why we went into two wars or changed financial laws that collapsed the US because it was supposed to “help Israel.”  In truth, what calls itself the “Israel lobby” has nothing to do with Israel or terrorism or being Jewish or anything else.

The “Israel lobby” is the leftover of Arnold Rothstein’s criminal organization you can watch on the Showtime series, Boardwalk Empire.  There is no “Israel lobby” although there are people that run around claiming Iran is trying to build gas chambers to throw Jews into.

This is childish raving and no more.

The “Israel lobby” is simply a front for what we used to call “the mob.”  It hides behind charging anyone who stands against it with holocaust stories or charges of antisemitism.  It shakes down foundations and companies for “support” much as with Arnold Rothstein’s original rackets in the 1920s.  Volkswagen just gave the lobby a million dollars last week, “blood money” based on blackmailing Germany about war guilt.  In reality, Volkswagen just paid a million dollars to organized crime.

Israel needs no lobby, it has a huge army, hundreds of nuclear weapons and, in a recent UN vote, has angered 107 of 121 UN member states for reasons no American will know because of press censorship.  American Jews need no protection, they are integrated into society, respected and highly successful.  Saying anything else is absurd.

Israel, terrorism, “liberals,” “Obamacare” and dozens of other issues, starting with “family values” are nothing but ways for criminals to misdirect Americans too lazy or too depressed with bad news from taking control of their lives, their government and their fates.

What will eventually wake up America?  Parents love their children and want them to have meaningful and full lives.  Very few Americans now have that hope for their children. 

Today, parents hope they can hold onto a family home, 30 million families have already found that impossible, and pass it on to children who may not be able to pay even the taxes and utilities.  Americans that once believed they might retire in their 50′s are now working well into their 70s, millions because their pensions were stolen, more because they are trying to feed middle aged children and grand children, even great grandchildren.

Do this.  Start looking around you, see how many are working minimum wage jobs that should be enjoying those “golden years” we were all told to expect.  The frightening part of this that isn’t spoken of is that, for every senior citizen holding a job, a young person is kept unemployed.

The game has been simple.  Things that are plentiful and inexpensive have to be made costly and dear.  Gasoline prices?  Refineries are closed, prices fixed, the world oil glut shielded from market realities.  Grains are used to make useless fuels, unwanted and unneeded.  Crops are engineered to produce abundance, but abundance of what?  Genetic engineering of food may very well wipe out the human race entirely.  Gene manipulation that protects soybeans from disease is just as likely to create new cancers in those who have the misfortune of ingesting these wild experiments.

Decades of science, decades of technology allow the poverty stricken and unemployed to “text” each other endlessly.  The subject?  It is always the same, too much time, too little purpose, lives that have to be spent on emptiness, staring at a screen or looking down at a keyboard.

The only path to a successful future is by proving to the middle managers of the criminal cabals that you have the potential to lie, cheat and steal if need be.  If you are bad enough, you can be a police officer.  If you are utterly hopeless, you can go to West Point or run for congress.

Why would anyone want to burn all this down and start over?  What if we began cataloging each other, who lives, who dies?

I remember my mother telling me she voted for Reagan once.  When she said it, it was as though she was describing killing a favorite pet with a hammer.

We have millions of Bush voters among us.  I believe they can’t be rehabilitated.  It is one thing making a bad decision.  It is quite something else when one chooses to place a criminal psychopath in a position of “life and death” power over billions of people.

This is nearly 2012, it is closing in on us.  There are Americans who believe there is an Islamic plot against America, who believe hijackers flew planes into buildings on 9/11 even though science or that rarer commodity, common sense, makes the whole concept absurd.

A little over two weeks ago, scientists working with genetic samples from Iraq proved that America used nuclear weapons in the Iraq War.  We aren’t talking munition made out of scrap uranium but actual atomic bombs.  The proof is conclusive.

No newspaper would print the findings.

$80 billion dollars a year in heroin is flown out of Afghansitan, 92% of the world’s supply.  Our papers say the Taliban does this but they have no planes, no access to airports and the poppy fields are guarded, just like “heaven,” “by United States Marines.”

No newspaper prints any of this.

What’s the game in America?  Reality TV, dumbed down universities, minimum wage jobs and a government deeply involved in flooding the country with illegal aliens and drugs.

As life deteriorates, police become increasingly brutal, little more than armed mobs, as we have seen in Oakland, New York and so many other cities. 

What else is happening?  Do this.  Get your local paper and read the classified ads.  Look at the jobs offered.  How many of the advertisements that supposedly offer jobs are actually asking the unemployed to pay “fees?” 

There are no jobs and preying on those desperate to keep their homes and feed their families has fed millions of Americans to the racketeers who run half the commerce in America.  “Payday loan” and credit card scams, mortgage scams, “debt relief” scams, all run by criminal organizations, operate openly, protected by the police, protected by politicians.

The thin line between crime and politics disappeared long ago.

In a recent visit to Nigeria, I met with officials who discussed that nations endemic corruption problem.  After hours of stories of billions stolen I asked for a moment to speak.

I told them things are actually much worse in Washington and that, were officials to have a conversation about correcting the problem such as the one we were having, we might all be murdered.

Ask a retired FBI agent what happens when he or she tries to investigate criminal acts by mob connected felons.  Any law enforcement official will tell you that their life revolves around avoiding confronting mob connected figures.  When the FBI went after the National Security Council under Bush for spying, Israel, Turkey and Russia, 3 years of investigation, thousands of hours of recordings, hundreds of felony counts which included the highest officials in the land, spying, treason among others, John Ashcroft made it all go away in one minute.

Witness statements included one top presidential advisor handing an Israeli agent nuclear secrets at a cocktail party and pointing it out to everyone in the room in the process.

This reminds me of the FBI agents who tried to stop the “Tel Aviv Special,” the plane loaded, well, we don’t know, that was allowed to fly out of the country on 9/12/2001.  Did something happen that made America unsafe for certain people that they needed to escape questioning by the FBI that day?

I can imagine one passenger, snickering at his or her seat, thinking about dropping a “hijacker passport” near ground zero.

As the flight went on, and considerations came into play, they may have though that rubbing it around so it was at least a bit dirty might have been a good idea.

They needn’t have bothered.  Nobody cared.

Deviated septum surgery has a high success rate go to site deviated septum surgery

The News Sun – Waukegan (IL) April 16, 2012 Dear Doctor K: My husband has a deviated septum. The condition runs in his family, and both his mother and uncle had unsuccessful surgeries to correct theirs. As a result, he refuses to consider surgery. What can be done?

Dear Reader: In people with a deviated septum, one nasal passage inside the nose is wider than normal and one is narrower. This alters the pattern of airflow in the nose and sometimes blocks airflow on the narrowed side.

The nasal septum is the wall between the left and right sides of the nose. It is firm but bendable. Ideally, the nasal septum should lie exactly in the center, forming two equal nasal passages. Yet in about 80 percent of us, the nasal septum is a little off-center. A deviated septum can be a very uncomfortable condition.

Symptoms of a deviated septum can include:

Blockage of one or both nostrils;

Nasal congestion, sometimes on one side;

Frequent nosebleeds;

Frequent sinus infections;

Facial pain, headaches, postnasal drip;

Noisy breathing during sleep in infants and young children;

Sleep interrupted by difficulty breathing, including an inability to sleep on one side.

The first step for your husband would be to speak with an otolaryngologist (ear, nose and throat specialist) or plastic surgeon about treatment options.

Steroid nasal sprays may reduce nasal allergies. Such allergies can cause tissues in the nose to swell, which further narrows the nasal passage on the side of the deviated septum. Some people use over-the-counter nasal sprays, such as oxymetazoline. These can open up nasal passages for a few days, but if these sprays are used more than that, they can cause the nasal passages to close down again.

Sometimes surgery ?ˆ” called a septoplasty ?ˆ” is needed. In this procedure, the surgeon moves the septum to a normal position. In some cases, the surgeon also will reshape the external appearance of the nose in a procedure called rhinoplasty. When the two procedures are done at the same time, the surgery is called a septorhinoplasty. deviatedseptumsurgerynow.net deviated septum surgery

Success rates for septoplasty are actually quite high, from the research I?ˆ™ve read — greater than 80 percent. Look for an ear, nose and throat surgeon who has done a large number of septoplasty operations in his or her career, and in the past couple of years, in particular.

  1. Somebody knows. Somewhere somebody knows. Somewhere somebody is holding the match that will blow the 911 basement-full-of-gas see-no-evil scenario to bits. It’s inevitable. What folks call the “tipping point”. You will see it coming when the rats and weasels start to switch sides. A few at a time, a trickle, then suddenly a flood. Why? Because bandits don’t have friends. They only have victims.. and future victims. Mob loyalty is a myth. When the mid-level scumbugs realize they’re just “little people” too, they will start to sneak out the back.

    On the other hand, I’ve only been wrong a couple.. hundred.. million times. Maybe it’s just the end.

    • Look for what Noam Chomsky describes as the zionist “bait and switch.” After working feverishly for years to enslave us in the NWO Police State, the zionists will, at the last minute, appear to switch sides. Greenspan has already done it (“I couldn’t possibly have known.”) Brzezinsky (now playing Mr. Nice after years of working for the Mob) Krauthammer, Beinert the list goes on.

      Don’t be fooled. They know justice is heading their way and they’re trying to avoid it.

    • Nice article gordon, will risk this disposable computer as my last got fried- you are spot on, right on, Sir. Obama listen up and wake up sir as these types mentoned in this article are the theives and liars that surround you sir. VT has always been right at the forefront- with a few FOS full of Shi@ losers that have editorial post ability.

  2. Yes, all is going as planned, the Grand Plan, which is for a New World Order. WHEN (not if) the US and EU systems fail, the time will be ripe for us being “saved” by the UN.
    Will it be the “end of war” and the “end of famine” as the writers for Star Trek showed on the “future earth”? No, too many folks make a living with wars and manipulation (of food and whatever else to keep the slaves “needing” the slave owners).

    I read an article about how it’s quite possible that Germany will demand gold from Italy for being bailed out. If (when?) it’s decided that the present financial standard needs to be “saved” by switching to a “gold standard”, guess who will OWN Europe. Germany (the Nazis/Zionists who made it a crime to say the holocaust didn’t happen because that is contrary to how they created the “need” for Israel to be “born” as their puppet) will have won WWIII without firing a shot.

  3. Well done….

    As I have always stated, when this “one man” is finally arrested, the country and world will change. Then more and more will come thereafter, all these trials should be televised for educational purposes.

    One after another charged and sentenced, until the complete criminal organization collapses, this will take a “World Effort”.

    And when the real trouble makers are exposed, you will then receive your “New World”. You all should know this by now……and why important for them to do the opposite, and attempt to take control of the world.

    The worlds population, or the small criminal organization, they are not “Global Elites”, but rather “Global Rodents”.

  4. Joe in San Francisco

    Yes, many people “know” what’s going on and who’s controlling the country, but only Veterans Today is sticking its neck out and looking where the cautious people absolutely will not. And they certainly won’t make a fuss about it or risk going public.

    Look at Occupy Wall Street: Where is the Truth Movement in all this? More than the traders on Wall Street, the bankers who are really in power are the ones who should be targeted and taken down. Some of the guys on Wall Street are also part of the 99%, and they are merely playing by the rules instituted by the bankers and their minions in Congress.

    But how can you take down the bankers who have unlimited money — more than Wall Street — and control entire governments, including ours? And to control a government that is lost to most of its people means you enjoy control of the military, the courts, the local police, and the minds of the people through the mainstream press.

    I believe it was Gordon or at least some columnist on VT who said there were plans by this administration to exercise a coup by the Good Guys over the Bad Guys, and that was going to include replacing those in control of the media to, once and for all, give us the Free Press we’ve probably never really had. The closest I’ve seen, as a former journalist myself, is the liberty of words that flows from the columnists on Veterans Today.

    VT is a resource that must — MUST — be kept going .. and spreading until it has the kind of numbers unimaginable even by Rupert Murdoch.

    Dare we dream?

  5. As Gordon has said, “They needn’t have bothered. Nobody cared.”

    And for the record, still don’t today. Not just a US disease though. Everywhere.

  6. “Let us realize the arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice.” -Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

    Pacify us? Trick us? Deceive us? There is no fighting the truth. Gordon, consider yourself simply a truth-teller before his time. Imagine what it felt like to be Galileo when he had to sign his statement that the Earth was the center of the universe in the face of persecution by the Church for his amazing scientific revelation about the Earth’s rotation and place in the galaxy.

    “Eppur si muove,” he stated after signing. Yet, it moves.

    So, convincing the masses that they have been deceived can be a long, ad-hoc process wherein you waste countless hours of time and build stress, or you can deliver your argument in a concise and poignant way, minding the fact that people are programmed to not pay attention. You must focus on, first, indisputable evidence. Then, debatable points — and you must always allow debate on those points.

    You must also consider the details. The media is highly manipulated, but it is not totally controlled. There are segments of the media that partake in its production and operation for the good of journalism. The ability to stifle these good-intentioned people is not total. So, for instance, you have a Fox News report about 9/11 truth. You have Brit Humes report about Israeli spying in America. Etc. etc. Exploit these.

    For instance, it is indisputable that:

    (1) For the first time in history, the WTC leases were conveyed to private owners, Larry Silverstein et. al., despite them NOT being the highest bidders, in July of 2001, only two months before 9/11. Coincidence? That meant Silverstein et. al. were in charge of all security. Larry Silverstein is a hardcore Zionist. Give one example then of Silverstein’s Zionism running against American interests. There are plenty.

    (2) Michael Chertoff started the office in Newark for Latham & Watkins, and subsequently, after becoming Director of Homeland Security and despite possessing no relevant pre-qualifications for a national security head position, his office defended Larry Silverstein properties and other major defendants against the claims of 9/11 victims. Michael Chertoff is argued to be a dual national citizen of Israel. His mother was the first female Mossad agent and stewardess of El-Al (link to Star Ledger article – the NJ paper – that carried his mother’s obituary, proving Chertoff’s origins). Coincidentally, the former DHS director was on air touting a marvelous solution to his own department’s failure to comply with their most fundamental mandate: a Nigerian lit his crotch on fire in economy class. His Chertoff Security Consultant group made him millions from that problem-reaction-solution exercise. He also invaded our homeland with TSA schemes devised by none other than El-Al Airlines security. He was on air touting El-Al as a great example of how we should handle our security needs in America — by acting like Israel.

    (3) There was a mass exodus from Latham & Watkins following the handling of that matter because certain partners and associates were privy to details that implicated Silverstein in 9/11. Particularly relating to Building 7.

    Building 7, another lynch pin.

    Let’s stray from examining how the buildings went down at the moment WHEN ADDRESSING THE UNINFORMED (emphasis) and stick to these lynch pin arguments that are indisputable. The key is to plant properly the seed of doubt.

    Another method is to provide key Google search terms. For instance, I always tell people to google:
    (1) “Jonathon Pollard” – Israel stole US nuclear secrets and gave them to our enemies, killing an estimated 1000 covert US agents in Russia
    (2) “USS Liberty” – Israel attack a US vessel and killed American service people. Their agents inside our government made sure there was a cover up. Our own veterans, the survivors of this horrible event, are ignored to this day. John McCain’s dad was the man who was in charge of hushing up the event.
    (3) “Lavon Affair” – Find out how Israel was actually founded by terrorism and is the only State in the world to ever espouse it as a main policy, even engaging in false-flag­s to frame others historical­ly.
    (4) “Steve Rosen AIPAC” The controvers­ial lobby’s laundry was aired when they had an in-fight..­.in court documents.­..proving the Lobby is an agent of the Israeli government and spying on the US.
    (5) “Israel threatens Iran” in quotes (you get to see all of the VIDEOS showing threats of tactical nukes, etc.)
    (6) “Mossad 9/11″
    (7) “Netanyahu 9/11″

    And then show them this ABC news report:
    http://abcnews.go.com/2020/story?id=123885&page=1#.TsLum1a6VBk

    • ps – I can make the above into a 5 slide Powerpoint deck. You don’t need to fit the entire puzzle together for people, just give them the tools and the proper motivation (the seed of doubt planted via poignant indisputable facts)

      • Unfortunately there are still plenty of Neo Cons like the one pictured as the “lead in” to this article that are dedicated to a non-stop campaign of disputing your “poignant indisputable facts”. I almost didn’t read the article because the sight, sound, and thought of “the vampiress Coulter” makes the hair on the back of my neck standup. And I can assure you that is the only thing that “stands-up”.

        If there is a hell, I will be in a 9×5 room with “her” for eternity. It isn’t that “nobody cares” it is that WE who do care are impotent in the face of the current MSM and government “climate”. OWS movement is becoming “iffy” and the excellent analysis and intel at VT are not going “mainstream” anytime soon.

        My optimisim has been carefully placed back in my “hope chest” for retrival on another day.

        • The lie was well conceived and planted. But the real fun has not yet begun. The Israelis taping 9/11 as it happened is a singular event proving foreknowledge and linking Israel. Let them dispute it. The truth is greater than the defense. That’s why it’s suppressed.

          If, hypothetically speaking, the President asked for an investigation based on suspicion of Israeli complicity in 9/11, American opinion would change in a flash. The key is Chertoff-Silverstein.

  7. I, (NAME), do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God.

    This oath that veterans took at the beginning of their military experiences underscores why today’s soldiers know zip about patriotism. Read these words. In reality, the new soldier needs to obey and defend the Constitution while the President craps all over said document. If you are a heads-up trainee, are you necessarily aware of this conundrum? Our President says WE are to protect and defend the document while he ruminates about turning it into the Communist Manifesto. Fair trade, right?
    I will bet my bottom dollar that most incoming soldiers are unaware of what patriotism is, it’s been bred out of the educational system over these last 40 years or so. Defending a nation that reeks of imperialism does not inspire patriotism, how can it? Once Uncle Sam has you breaking starch. he own you, Joe. Kids go into this military, and I speak about the Army, my old alma mater, and they think old Rambo movies are what it’s like. They think there’s a pot of honorable stuff at the end of their hitch, they think they are fighting for democracy, freedom, security in both the nation imperialized and the United States. Wrong! How many kids sue the government after their hitch because Sam lied to them? Read Gordon’s machine-gun expose’ of his days in the Corps. Makes you sick, right? Well, it hasn’t changed a bit. Today’s soldiers are dupes of an illegal, rapacious government that knows no boundaries. I cannot for the life of me understand why a kid would want to serve in this military. It can only be because he/she is mentally challenged or without a job or hung up on Stallone movies.
    Imagine. Soldiers take the oath to protect and defend the Constitution while the Congress and President laugh like hyenas and break the Constitution into tiny bits and burn it, trample it, besmirch it, smear it all over the fatalistic face of this country. Our soldiers come home with the obvious remnants of radiation damage to their DNA. Once home, once out of uniform, they are rejected when genetic diseases come forth into their lives, their childrens’ lives. My friend Ronnie has weird skin lesions now, has Parkinson’s, has lost 40 pounds the last 2 years and fought tooth and nail for care in his final days. He took the ol’ Agent Orange shower too many times.
    To die honorably for one’s country? When the Congress and President are getting fat rich on their terms of office? Remember the words of poet Wilfred Owen when he objected strenuously to the false notion that dying for one’s country was a noble feat, a heroic gesture. I had to protect and defend the Constitution while my Congress and President used it in place of Scott toilet tissues….
    Young people of this country, listen up. Study and understand what patriotism is. Familiarize yourself with the facts that this nation has become a renegade scourge in our troubled world. To serve this government without understanding the servile obeisance expected of you is tantamount to being taken to the cleaners. Knowledge is power, and judging from those of you who enlist in the military, you are powerless due to your lack of judgment and understanding. Our Patriot Act does not mean you are patriots when you serve, it means you have not confronted what it is we have become. I learned this too late, I was had, I had been duped, I had been forced to serve. You volunteers have some serious things to ponder before you take that oath.

    • “Nice” rant and right on point. Dittos bahmi.

    • Nice post Bahmi, My last got kicked off Ispoke about the special trust and confidence placed apon military, and public servants. tHE SPECIAL TRUST AND CONFIDENCE PLACED UPON THOSE OF PUBLIC SERVICE BY THE PUBLIC…Sorry the caps lock got hit while typing- must post…

  8. Truth. It does not have to be explained. It does not have to be defended. It does not have to be pretty, but it needs fertile ground to take hold in the minds and hearts of men. Truth is the source of revelation. We humans need truth just like we need sun and sleep.
    If we want truth, then we are willing to sacrifice all our sacred cows to its uncompromising fire. I do look around, Mr. Duff, and I see many people, some who are extremely unlikely, wish for the truth.
    We find truth with the occupiers. Yes, state sanctioned thuggery is focusing its brutal muscle on the occupy heroes, in a vain attempt to get people to abandon their new found truth. Unfortunately for the thugs, and their masters, we are in the apocalypse, and the definition of apocalypse is the lifting of the veil. More truth, not less will continue to be revealed.
    The lies are being exposed; Iraq, 911, War on Terror, international banking, the not so federal federal reserve.
    When I see the kind of stuff present at the occupy protest-the signs, the talk, the demeanor of the people, I understand why the thugs want to kill them. Thugs represent nothing but slavery, the occupy protests include some of the best aspects of humanity, including those things you yourself have written about-community, and caring for others.
    The people have not all gone crazy, and we are not the reason things have gotten so dark. However, we are slowly rediscovering our power. The great secret, feared by the elite more than anything else, is that people have great power. When the veil is lifted, and we remember this, the current shitstem will be swept away like a leaf in a tornado.

    • The power of truth has now become the only way out of this affront to human liberty. All of the morbid lies surrounding our nation and our collective criminal actions have been judged. Like the objects in the rear view mirror, the consequences of those actions appear larger than they are, because time has altered the optics to let the overpowering truth now be seen in all of its brutal reality.

      The linked chain of deceptions, the deceit of our leaders, the attempted destruction of our country and our way of life is by no means an accident, but rather part of a war which has raged from within our gates for decades.

      Many Americans have seen it clearly, but most have not, giving over their discernment to the traitors in the Media, who acted to bend, twist, omit and spin the truth into lies. But the Media did not act alone, for the enemies within our gates are found at all levels of power, within Government, Military, Institutional, Financial, Corporate and the Church of every faith.

      A look back 10 years tells the treasonous tale. Some Americans still believe a guy with a beard and a cell phone who lived in a cave did all this because he hated our freedoms. Some Americans still believe he was just found and killed, then, in a stupefied ritual, buried at sea by an elite military group who suddenly all died in a crash in a distant country that just happens to lease oil and gas pipeline rights to us and additionally exports drugs to America for additional cash flow.

      Some Americans in this nation see all of these lies as a pretense for the preposterous New World Order and the misery it portends for mankind. As with all lies, it will die hard in the attempt to overcome the human right to be free from the tyranny it evokes. Those that have been active enemies of this nation, both foreign and domestic are going to have their “MUSSOLINI MOMENT” whereby their treachery will be hung upside down, for the people to find their courage and finally, come to the truth. History will record another ugly moment, but that event cannot be denied its place in time, and that time, is now upon us.

    • Well said gentlemen.

      The cancer of the 9/11 LIE has metastasized to Stage IV and the only hope for the patient is a massive dose of the TRUTH (which is spreading like wildfire).

  9. Holy crap! Halloween is over, dude! Why put that picture of a smirking ghoul up there? A hideous deranged harpy! I nearly blew my bourbon breakfast when I saw that horrible face hoovering there like some awful fiend on the cover of a horror DVD! Only thing missing is the blood leaking down from her fangs like Christopher Lee in an old Hammer Dracula movie!

  10. Gordon,

    Do you remember when Cheney first started to get active in his supposed “search for a VP candidate” he started talking about “how things were not as good as they appeared here in the US” and that danger existed in many places where the public was not seeing it? At the time his comments were way out of line. We did enjoy a reasonably good America. One in which the economy was strong, our Government agencies at least seemed interested in helping the average person, where the debt was being paid down.

    It appears Cheney’s comment was a prelude (or a view into) what they wanted and had planned for America and the world. But at the time it seemed strange because things were going so well.

    The NeoCons and their co-conspirators should all be hunted down and brought to trial, then hanged in public on pay-per-view for payment of national expenses, plus claw-back of all resources.

    It was just 12 months before Cheney’s first statements that Greenspan said “its not good for us, the US, to pay off a lot of our debt in the form of Treasury Bonds, Notes, in other words retire them”…..the FED then raised rates 3 times in a few weeks in order to make it difficult for Gore to win against Bush ll.

    Why was it that we shouldn’t pay off our debts, exactly? Because they have had a plan to get the US into so much debt that all the “Safety Nets” of Social Security and Medicare, Veterans Benefits, Medicaid, etc., would need to be eliminated. As you say this was, is the plan.

  11. Anybody seen Curmudgeon around? I miss his illuminating input.

    • Derek, I’m sure he caught a Virus to the computter, as I did… This ones a disposable-Heeh Heh Heh!
      “To use any means and methods to get the job done…” Heh Heh heh…

  12. Peter Mac Donald i read your first sentence and feel a need to reply to you. Stay off the meds supplied to you by the people that have been harming you. Don’t drink alcohol. Live with your pain, or as the Tom Berringer Character of Barnes stated to another Character,-Take the Pain!-Platoon, Sir! I feel for you, and I was a resident of New Hampshire for two years. Don’t expect any Liberal help or understanding. Liberalism-help for the less fortunate, goes out the door, exponentially with the multitude that wear baseball caps! Stay strong sir and even don’t fight the fight. We must choose our battles, and I believe you hav fought a good fight- yet discretion is the better part of valor ,SIR! Run to fight another day

    Respect
    TJ Bronco
