The West Is Partly Responsible for the Ebola Crisis In Africa
Everyone’s seen the stories …
Ebola has become an epidemic in Liberia and Sierra Leone because those West African countries don’t have the resources to cope with the disaster. This is largely true because both countries have been torn apart by war.
Wikipedia notes regarding Liberia … the epicenter of the Ebola crisis:
Under Taylor’s leadership, Liberia became internationally known as a pariah state due to the use of blood diamonds and illegal timber exports to fund the Revolutionary United Front in the Sierra Leone Civil War.
***
The Liberian economy began a steady decline due to economic mismanagement following the 1980 coup. This decline was accelerated by the outbreak of civil war in 1989; GDP was reduced by an estimated 90% between 1989 and 1995, one of the fastest declines in history.
***
Civil war strife ended in 2003 after destroying approximately 95% of the country’s healthcare facilities. In 2009, government expenditure on health care per capita was US$22, accounting for 10.6% of total GDP. In 2008, Liberia had only 1 doctor and 27 nurses per 100,000 people.
As to Sierra Leone, Wikipedia points out:
Government corruption and mismanagement of the country’s natural resources contributed to the Sierra Leone Civil War (1991 to 2002), which over more than a decade devastated the country. It left more than 50,000 people dead, much of the country’s infrastructure destroyed, and over two million people displaced as refugees in neighbouring countries.
But what most Westerners don’t know is that our governments are partly responsible for the war that ravaged those countries’ healthcare infrastructure.
Liberia
The Boston Globe reported in 2009:
Former Liberian president and accused war criminal Charles G. Taylor said today that his infamous prison break from the Plymouth County Correctional Facility in 1985 was aided by the US government …
Agence France-Presse noted in 2008:
A former Liberian warlord allied to Charles Taylor has told the country’s Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) that the United States released the strongman from jail in 1985 to engineer the overthrow of president Samuel Doe.
[Prince Johnson, now a Liberian senator] has already made allegations about Washington’s dubious role in the 1989 to 1997 war ….
Taylor and Johnson were allies in the early 1980s, but they later fell out, with Johnson forming a rival organisation to Taylor’s National Patriotic Front of Liberia (NPFL).
So both dictator Taylor – and his rival, a current Liberian Senator – testified that the U.S. broke Taylor out of jail.
In addition, the Boston Globe reported in 2012 that U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency documents confirmed that Taylor had CIA ties. Editors later largely retracted the story. However, other sources allegedly confirm it.
Sierra Leone
Taylor was instrumental in destroying Sierra Leone, as well …
As the Daily Mail wrote last year, Taylor was sentenced to 50 years in prison for his war crimes, crimes against humanity and terrorism in Sierra Leone:
The former president of Liberia was convicted by the Special Court for Sierra Leone (SCSL) on 11 counts of war crimes and crimes against humanity, including terrorism, murder, rape and using child soldiers.
***
The court’s ruling came more than a decade after Taylor helped rebels go on a murderous rampage across war-torn Sierra Leone, raping, murdering and mutilating tens of thousands of innocent victims.
Taylor had aided and abetted crimes committed by Revolutionary United Front and Armed Forces Revolutionary Council rebels, while knowing well the kinds of crimes they were committing.
Presiding Judge George Gelaga King said: ‘Their primary purpose was to spread terror. Brutal violence was purposefully unleashed against civilians with the purpose of making them afraid, afraid that there would be more violence if they continued to resist.’
***
The court found Taylor provided crucial aid to rebels in Sierra Leone during that country’s 11-year civil war, which left an estimated 50,000 people dead before its conclusion in 2002.
Thousands more were left mutilated in a conflict that became known for its extreme cruelty, as rival rebel groups hacked off the limbs of their victims and carved their groups’ initials into opponents.
The rebels developed gruesome terms for the mutilations, offering victims the choice of ‘long sleeves’ or ‘short sleeves’ – having their hands hacked off or their arms sliced off above the elbow.
And it’s not just Taylor …
The Chicago Tribune reported in 2002:
The story of the American involvement in Sierra Leone is coming out in bits and pieces, but we can already see that the Clinton administration’s unrepentant policy there has been to empower one of the cruelest torturers and mass murderers of our times. And the story is far from over.
Let us focus first only on events in the spring of 1999: Foday Sankoh, whose savage Revolutionary United Front movement had massacred thousands and cut off the limbs of thousands more, had been arrested by Nigerian peacekeeping troops. Finally, he was in the hands of the at least nominally decent government in Sierra Leone. The long-suffering Sierra Leoneans, whose country had been a moderately prosperous former British colony, prayed that the worst was over.
But instead of insisting upon justice, President Clinton placed a now-famous phone call to Sankoh and persuaded him to enter a “peace accord.” The psychopathic Sankoh was told kindly by the American president that he could soon run for president! In the meantime, he would share power in the government and, supposedly, disarm his savage and often drugged teenaged troops, many of whom were ushered into the movement by being forced to kill their parents.
There was more to come. While taking Sankoh out of jail, where he was to be executed, the U.S. administration also refused to seriously support the UN-sponsored Nigerian troops because they had engaged in some minor “human-rights abuses.” The administration further refused to allow mercenaries, like the South African Executive Outcomes, to defeat Sankoh’s movement.
Thus, the only two groups that had the effective power to settle the situation were held back by this odd Clintonesque purism, while a homicidal killer went free. Once loosed again upon his people, Sankoh broke all of his promises –and what even reasonably rational person could not have predicted that? He called his latest convulsion of killing and maiming “Operation No Living Thing.” But now he is under arrest again–and the Clinton people have still another chance!
So the president sent the Rev. Jesse Jackson to West Africa to “mediate.” Before he left for Sierra Leone, he compared Foday Sankoh’s murderous RUF to Nelson Mandela’s African National Congress in South Africa, which fought for and gained equality for all South Africans. Sankoh, Jackson said sagely, could play a “positive role.”
Jackson traveled first to Liberia, which neighbors Sierra Leone, to meet with his “friend,” the other unspeakable dictator of West Africa, Charles Taylor. Once there, Jackson praised Taylor, who is responsible both for the terrible bloodletting in his own country as well as in Sierra Leone, as someone who could play a “very positive role” (please note that his role is slightly upgraded from Sankoh’s)
Guinea
The brutality and war brought by Charles Taylor also spilled over into Guinea … the third West African country hit with Ebola. Indeed:
Combatants from Sierra Leone and Liberia inevitably attacked border communities in neighboring Guinea in 1999-2000, pushing the violence into that otherwise peaceful country.
Hundreds of thousands of refugees also flooded into Guinea to escape the wars in Liberia and Sierra Leone:
Guinea remains the primary asylum country for West Africa’s refugees. Refugee influxes during the 1990s were so overwhelming that, for several years, Guinea hosted the largest refugee population on the continent. Some 120,000 Liberian and up to 50,000 Sierra Leonean refugees continued to reside in Guinea as of July 2003.
And the destruction of infrastructure in Sierra Leone means that people with Ebola are crossing the border into Guinea.
The big picture: All of the countries which the U.S. tinkers with descend into chaos.

Guess nobody bothered to read about the CIA connection? Reported in the effing MSM?
"So both dictator Taylor – and his rival, a current Liberian Senator – testified that the U.S. broke Taylor out of jail.

WHITEY DID IT!!
Let's see if I get it:
And like moths to a flame, the Africans had no role in their behavior <sniff>.
So now, the filthy west must send money, lots and lots of money. To the [dictators tyrants war criminals] peacebringing saints now in charge.
Until, it's discovered that these [peacebringing saints] are really dictators, tyrants and war criminals in the pay of the west [GASP!].

Partly to blame, George?
You are being too kind.
The big picture: All of the countries tinkered with by psychopaths in high places descend into chaos.
Segregate the psychopathic and the "conscience-challenged" from civil society until such time as they can be reliably cured.
Surely something of that plan can make it through the dream-pipe and into reality.
Wait.
There's a psychopath at the other end of it....
You forgot to mention that the DoD has germ warfare labs all over Africa.
I wonder if that has anything to do with fact that all the experts keep saying that this particular Ebola has "developed" into the present manifestation, in spite of the fact that "scientists" tell us that Ebola appears in the fossil record (50,000 years) without any natural change?
Whatever... I don't recall anyone in the west sex-banging any monkeys. The West can't be responsible for all the world's wrongs, no matter how much you'd like it to be.
The problem is the West misrepresents its actions at almost every turn. That is why the West is losing the resource race in Africa to China. The West disguises their actions as care and concern when it is always about resources and markets. For example- The West says "We will help you African farmers- you must use our methods and Monsanto's seeds." Whereas China says- "We need resources- what do you need? Ok we will build roads and rail lines." Do the roads help China as well- sure but it is straight up and not the fake spreading of democracy crap both Africa and South America have put up with. Another example- The West to Pakistan- "We want your children healthy we will give them free vacinations." The CIA wanted DNA samples to identify family members of people they were interested in. Now that is sick. Oh and the best line ever- "We tortured some folks." The CIA is an American agency and like it or not if you are an American taxpayer you facilitate these crimes. Stand up for the truth not some ideal you were brainwashed in school with.
You might change your mind about "the west cant be responsible" when the markets collapse, you lose your job to collapse of demand and supply disruptions, you cant get groceries because the store is empty, you cant receive medical care because the medical system has collapsed and you can't leave your house because some person resembling Resident Evil just shit his intestines on your front porch.
I understand that Fed Gov is too big, sucks and is overreaching into everything, but this is about the only type of thing we need them for. A small investment could have potentially saved you from these potential consequences.
I see the crude point you are crudely making, but I advocate Dr. James Watson's approach.
Genetics are largely at fault for Africa's failure to become civilized, and that means there's a treatment target -- if people can just stop with the self-flattering, egalitarian "nurture" garbage. If your ideology prevents you from seeing the problem, you have no hope of solving it except by pure accident.
Thomas Sowell persuasively argues that individuals are more a product of their culture than their race in:
"Ethnic America" (http://www.amazon.com/Ethnic-America-History-Thomas-Sowell/dp/0465020755...)
"Race and Culture" (http://www.amazon.com/Race-And-Culture-World-View/dp/0465067972/ref=pd_s...).
Persuasive to whom? Anecdotal evidene. Scientific evidence points elsewhere, and Africans have the lowest IQ on average in the world. If you don't understand statistics, perhaps Tom Sowell can explain it to you.
Persuasive to an objective person who can read and reason. "Ethnic America" has over 40 pages of footnote references to original sources.
And yes, Tom Sowell does an excellent job of using an explaining statistics, e.g. the very different and deliberate impressions communicated via the seemingly similar "per capita income" and "family income", etc.
Again, highly recommended to any objective truth seeker.
How about we prove your theory? Have two kids. We'll allow you to raise one, drop the other off with Ota Benga and his Congolese tribesman, and check back in 20 years. C'mon, put your "genetics" where your mouth is, you eugenic fuck.
Better yet, drop one of the children with a tribe of apes. Better chance of attaining adulthood, you retarded fuck.

"The West is partly responsible..."
Because you liberal sense self hatred demands it. And Africans can't do anything for themselves. They can't even put up a prefabricated hospital without the US Army Corp. engineers.
Go peddle you libtard bullshit somewhere else G. W.
Ob1knob:
George Washington's articles are well-researched and backed by an abundance of links which anyone else can check out. Due to that, in my opinion, he tends to pull his punches, precisely in order to ONLY make points that can be demonstrated by reasonably reliable other sources. I regard it as ridiculous to accuse George Washington of spouting "libtard bullshit." The only thing that I would accuse him of is what I regard as being reasonable for him to do, which is surf the leading edge of the waves of information which are almost mainstream, or which other people could double check.
For instance, I would assert regarding the following conclusion:
"The big picture: All of the countries which the U.S. tinkers with descend into chaos."
that the SAME THING is going to apply to the majority of Americans TOO, because the majority of Americans have lost control over their government at an exponentially accelerating rate, at the same time as the international banksters were able to capture control of that government, as the spearpoint of how all the other ways that the FUNDING OF THE POLITICAL PROCESSES have created a government of the money, by the money, for the money, in which enough people can be fooled enough of the time, in order to believe in the false fundamental dichotomies presented by the political puppets to the masses of muppets.
More and more, the government of the USA and the American People are splitting apart. The agendas being pursued in Africa were those of global empires, which have used up national powers, while simultaneously systematically destroying those national powers. Those global empires are going to do to the majority Americans what they have been doing to everyone else that they could, as they worked their way down through the list of the easiest to rob targets.
It is ridiculous to not recognize that the current state of Africa is due to several Centuries of waves of foreign invasions, using the methods of organized crime to achieve their objectives. The great paradox of that kind of success from the best organized gangs of criminals controlling Africa is the same as everywhere else in the world, NAMELY, THE SHORT-TERM TRIUMPHS OF SOCIAL CONTROL ACHIEVED THROUGH THE MEANS OF BACKING UP LIES WITH VIOLENCE HAVE EXTREMELY EVIL LONGER TERM CONSEQUENCES FOR EVERYONE!
However, there are no genuinely superior resolutions to that basic problem than the possible development of better organized crime, since it is necessarily the case that the REAL WORLD is controlled by lies backed by violence, because it MUST NECESSARILY BE, since the death control systems are the central controls upon which everything else depends. Africa demonstrates the degree to which insane death controls drive worse and worse death insanities. Tragically, Americans are headed in the same direction, since the banksters' increasing their control of the American government for more than a Century has created conditions of debt insanities in America, which are headed towards provoking death insanities.
The death insanities due to epidemic plagues (perhaps covertly bioweaponized along the way) were always those with the greatest potential to cause civilization to collapse into chaos. The driving forces in Africa are THE SAME AS EVERYWHERE ELSE, only varying in degree. The basic reasons are similar everywhere, that all medical problems exist inside of human ecology. The REAL human ecology was controlled by murder systems which developed to be done through the maximum possible deceits, because that was, in the short-term, the most successful social strategy.
Furthermore, at the same time, the controlled opposition groups to the established systems developed to operate inside of the same frame of reference, thinking about problems using false fundamental dichotomies, and the related impossible ideals, which actually cause the opposite to happen in the real world. Human cultures are systems of artificial selection, which were made and maintained by natural selection pressures. However, those cultural systems of artificial selection were operated by professional liars and immaculate hypocrites, since the strategies which were most socially successful were to operate their combined money/murder systems through the maximum possible frauds and deceits.
Africa provided particularly egregious examples of how organized systems of lies operating robberies could become extremely unbalanced. Most of the countries set up by their colonizers in Africa, as fake "independence" which was actually integration into the globalized banksters' systems, were not as able to maintain the delicate equilibria between the various different systems of organized lies operating robberies that Western countries had have several centuries of previous history to develop, in order to relatively stabilize those Western countries. However, as African systems break down, and collapse into chaos, the same driving forces are at work in Western countries today, due to the same basic problems that the majority of people in Western countries are also mainstream morons, brainwashed to believe in the biggest bullies' bullshit social stories, to the degree that the established systems and their controlled opposition groups are spinning out of control, as those have already done in some parts of Africa.
Due to the degree to which historically developed murder systems operating death controls were most successfully done through the maximum possible deceits, including how their controlled opposition groups also operated within the same frame of reference, the human species is faced with problems which appear practically impossible to better resolve through current political means. For a long time, the social successes based on operating organized systems of lies and robbery most successfully through the maximum possible deceits, and frauds, have been driving themselves towards death insanities.
THE ONLY THEORETICALLY BETTER RESOLUTIONS OF THOSE PROBLEMS WOULD NECESSARILY HAVE TO BE BETTER DEATH CONTROLS. However, the established systems, including their controlled opposition groups, can NOT engage in any rational public debates about how to do that, since those systems are NOW based on the history of social successes through being the best at dishonest backed by violence. What Africans actually learned from the Western countries was what those Western countries actually DID, which was apply the methods of organized crime, through systems of organized lies and robberies, to exploit African natural resources. The same things are happening all over the world, including within the Western countries. Therefore, we are headed towards PEAK INSANITIES, as the debt insanities are driving us towards death insanities.
Throughout history, plagues have always caused more deaths than the direct effects of war and famine combined. There is nothing new to what is now transpiring, except in the degree to which progress in science and technology is pumping everything up by orders of magnitude. The emerging GRAND PARADOX is the degree to which we have better science about so many things, EXCEPT political science. The deeper reasons for that are the ways that we developed our existing systems of artificial selection through the maximum possible deceits and frauds, which regard the realities of natural selection pressures through the eyes of those who have become the best professional liars and immaculate hypocrites.
Therefore, we are watching the back-up systems of natural selection tending towards overwhelming the established systems of artificial selection, because those systems of artificial selection have been paradoxically developed to operate their most successful social strategies through attitudes which maintain the most evil deliberate ignorance towards the realities of natural selection pressures. Almost all of our public political debates are dominated by the biggest bullies' bullshit, such as blaming the West or the US government, when NATO and the US government are actually controlled by the international banksters, because the banksters were actually the best at applying the methods of organized crime in order to control civilization, to the degree to which the most basic social and environmental facts are so deeply buried under so many layers of bullshit that they barely can be seen by most people, much less rationally debated in any public forum.
The ways that epidemics threaten us take place through this chain of connections: the medical system is inside the monetary system, which is inside the murder system. The most deceitful murder systems have made and maintained the most fraudulent monetary systems, which in turn have created the conditions for epidemic plagues to spin out of control. However, since the only genuinely better resolutions for those problems would take better death control systems, backing up better debt controls systems, (which are practically impossible, given the currently established systems and their controlled opposition) WE ARE WATCHING THE EMERGENCE OF DEATH INSANITIES.
Hear hear.
I may regularly disagree with GW, but I respect his reference-heavy style and his clear avoidance of ad hominem attacks. He makes every attempt to let facts speak for themselves, which is actually a scientific style. Even if I think GW is sometimes unscientific in his process and conclusions, at least he tries which is more than can be said for most of us.
On the rest of your post, on fire as usual. Amongst the unbolded I particularly enjoyed this as worthy of focus:
For example, financial/economic models that require the planet to be infinite. We are not allowed to aim for sustainability / steady-state. It's all growth, growth, growth, and taboo to be anti-growth.
"He makes every attempt to let facts speak for themselves, which is actually a scientific style."
Yeah, the amount of time someone's been here speaks volumes, scientifically speaking that is.
+1 Mediocritas, for your efforts to engage Radical Marijuana ! It ain't easy!
focusing on "the most evil deliberate ignorance towards the realities of natural selection pressures", I'm focused on this conundrum; we now have the Sec/Gen of the World Meteorological Organization (co-sponsor of the IPCC), Dr. Michelle Jarraud, stating we can no longer plead ignorance and telling us we must ACT, yet the IPCC/UNFCCC/ et al are also the controlled opposition, tools of spreading evil deliberate ignorance??? Dr. J calls for sustainable development which I read as different from stereotypical "growth"
AARGGGG!
RM is absolutely right about the overshoot, and disease vectors are absolutely part of the climate change issue. Yet it's the "controlled opposition that is warning us?
Dazed And Confused lol,

GUARANTEEING OVERSHOOT COLLAPSE
conditions in which plagues predominate.
Heh, that language takes me back to the old dieoff.org days in Jay Hanson's various Yahoo Groups and their spinoffs....you weren't also there by any chance? I think I've linked to Jay before, but my memory isn't great. He's well worth a read (a very succinct guy!) and he recently updated the old site:
http://dieoff.org
http://www.jayhanson.org/oldindex.htm
The "overshoot style" can be observed in a couple of the (not-so)new people now posting in the ZH main articles because they were there also: Raul Ilargi Meyer from The Automatic Earth (TAE) and Gail Tverberg from The Oil Drum (TOD). Both worth listening to.
Insanity is a legal definition and has no basis in Sociology or Psychology in the Social Sciences. The term 'insanity' only applies to jurisprudence and not science itself. Taken together, what is a 'death insanity' exactly, Radical Marijuana? Please start using operational definitions when you use
legal terms to impart meaning. One man's insanity could be another man's relativity theory.
I regard "death insanities" as being the result of final failure from too much success from controlling civilization by backing up lies with violence. Psychosis is generally defined as losing contact with a relatively more objective world. Of course, I agree with the basic concept of "relativity" that there is no absolutely objective world. However, clearly, better science can intelligibly ask and answer the questions regarding "How do we know what we know," and therefore, "How much confidence can we have in what we know?"
The paradoxical problems driving death insanities are the result of the ways that people adapt to live within social slavery systems, by developing a slave culture. The established social systems developed by the history of Neolithic Civilizations required "human farming" as slavery systems, which were the essential core to all other forms of domestication of other animals and plants.
Social pyramid systems operate through backing up lies with violence, with the basic assertions of slavery being: "Do what I say, or I will kill you." The history of warfare selected from those groups who could best operate the murder systems to maintain those forms of slavery. The surviving slaves adapted to operate inside of the established systems of that slavery, being controlled by ignorance and fear, which was credibly backed up by those who resisted being tortured and murdered.
Civilization at the present time is a more sophisticated system of slavery: debt slavery, backed up by wars based on deceits. The ruling classes apply the standard methods of warfare to control those they rule over. The oldest book on the Art of War SHOULD be seriously studied. The most important things it stated was, first, successful warfare is based on deceit, and therefore, second, spies are the most important soldiers. THAT APPLIES TO HOW THE RULING CLASSES HAVE WAGED WARS AGAINST THE PEOPLE THAT THEY RULED OVER!
Slave societies develop the relationships between their rulers, who specialize in being dishonest and violence, and those they rule over, who adapt to survive by living inside of that system, often through some social systems which operate like State Religions, in which the dominate controlled opposition groups are co-opted and compromised to promote the biggest bullies' bullshit social stories.
Thousands of years of history of successful warfare based on deceits and treachery have made the kind of civilization that we live inside at the present time. THE PARADOXES OF DEATH INSANITIES ARE DUE TO THE LONGER TERM CONSEQUENCES OF THAT! The more that our civilization is effectively controlled by systems of legalized lies, backed by legalized violence, in which context people are relatively successful by operating within those systems, the more that that civilization as a whole becomes Orwellian, in the sense of insane, due to everything being dominated by Huge Lies, which the vast majority of people have adapted to live within, for generation after generation.
The currently dominate State Religions are the monetary system, and national security, which actually operate on the basis of the maximum possible frauds and deceits. In more chaotic ways, the same things operate inside of the African context, as operate within the North American context. Those political problems are basically the same as the social pyramid systems based on backing up lies with violence, namely large numbers of people necessarily believing in those lies, no matter how false they are, and regardless of the degree to which more rational evidence and logical arguments could prove those were false, BECAUSE THOSE LIES ARE BACKED UP BY VIOLENCE!
Those lies contradict basic social and environmental facts. People who believe those lies were brainwashed to believe in that bullshit, with the back-up systems being that they were rewarded for agreeing with those lies, while they were punished if they did not agree with those lies. The deeper levels of that dilemma is that human realities must necessarily be systems of organized lies operating robberies, because human being are entropic pumps of energy flows.
Death insanities are the result of the generalized social insanities, due to social pyramid systems being operated on the basis of successfully backing up lies with violence, which drives people towards attitudes of evil deliberate ignorance towards common sense, and so on and so forth. It even more so drives them towards believing in what their natural languages take for granted, and even more so drives them to not be aware of the degree to which the biggest bullies' bullshit dominated the philosophy of science, in the same ways as it dominated every other social enterprise.
We are headed towards debt insanities provoking death insanities, due to the degree which the world is controlled by systems of lies backed by violence. The worse that is anywhere in the world corresponds to degree to which that place is dominated by its local systems of lies backed by violence. Inside that context, medical problems have always been the most intimate sources of suffering, in which ignorance was the source of that suffering, and deliberate ignorance was the source of the worst suffering.
THERE IS A PROFOUND PARADOX THAT SOCIAL SUCCESS WAS BASED ON OPERATING THROUGH SYSTEMS OF LIES BACKED BY VIOLENCE! The more successful that became, the more insane the society overall became, and therefore, that was headed towards Peak Insanities, which are going to cause Death Insanities! In the case of Africa, one has blatantly failed states, which have developed in ways where an Ebola Epidemic was made possible! However, my main point in my previous comment is that Western countries are headed in the same directions, for the same reasons!
Cognitive Dissonance has expressed it in these ways:
"Control the Language and You Control the Mind! ... It is the effective manipulation of our belief systems that enslaves us to the present day insanity. ... The absolute best controlled opposition is one that doesn't know they are controlled."
Comment Blogger: someone whose word count exceeds the original article by a wide margin. Not offering any solutions I notice. Just likes the sound of his own voice, I guess.
Thank you for taking the time to type that- I enjoy your posts.
The system seems to be all about fatiguing and discouraging anyone who works in private industry through continous lies clearly dictated to the msm for the sheeples consumption.
True Conservatives are ANTI-War
As with most slogans, your statement is so simplistic it's moronic.
P.S. - the whole white guilt thing has gotten real old.
So every inner city that looks like feral Africa (which is all of them) in the US is the fault of the "west" too? Detroit? Camden? Gary? East St. Louis?
I agree....ONLY if the blame is properly placed where it belongs:
WHITE LIBERALS.
They were the fuckers that destroyed everything they touched in the name of "compassion" but in reality permanent poverty, dependency and votes.
Look at Zimbabwe.....remember when it was Rhodesia?
What changed besides the name? Who caused it?
Look at Detroit. Once the finest city in the entire nation. What changed? Who caused it?
Fuck all you liberals.
You assign blame to others and abdicate any sense of personal responsibility.
And then wonder why shit is still fucked up generations later.
No. It is the lack of Neandertal DNA in the inhabitants of Detroit, East St Louis, Sierra Leone and all of sub-Saharan Africa.
That, and the tragic inability of white liberals (and most everyone else) to recognize and accept the consequences.
The Pillars of American Thinking – The “Father of the Constitution “and the “Father of Free Market Capitalism” – Both Warned Against War … 200 Hundred Years Ago
Now George, you know you're taking some "liberties" with that.
There is a large difference between warmongers constantly advocating for war and a war that comes to you and must necessarily be fought to preserve or free yourself.
I can entertain a little navel gazing (introspection) about why things happen this way or that way but at some point the beard scratching ends with the understanding that not everyone on this planet shares or even thinks in the terms you or I do.
So, without war would Madison have been free to speak as he did against a monarch without reprisal? And Adam Smith also said something about self interest:
"It is not from the benevolence of the butcher, the brewer, or the baker, that we expect our dinner, but from their regard to their own interest."
If someone or something is interested in subjugating or killing me, I'm just not interested.
And it might require war ;-)
True Progressives are FULL-a-shit, starting with you.
True War Mongers are Anti-Christ,,,,errr,,,Anti-God. No link.../s
True Conservatives are ANTI-War? What a devastating retort! Because expecting Africans to take responsiblity for there own mess is somehow the moral equivalent being pro-war?
I have been following the entire thread and i have no idea what this last post is advocating. What is the call to action? AIDA Attention Interest Decision Action --- where is it?!
It's Bush's fault !
But he goes by the name George Washington. and Obama is a Constitutional scholar. And George Soros is a Philanthropist.
