Paul Craig Roberts: "Our Soldiers Died For The Profits Of The Bankers"
Memorial Day commemorates soldiers killed in war. We are told that the war dead died for us and our freedom. US Marine General Smedley Butler challenged this view. He said that our soldiers died for the profits of the bankers, Wall Street, Standard Oil, and the United Fruit Company. Here is an excerpt from a speech that he gave in 1933:
War is just a racket. A racket is best described, I believe, as something that is not what it seems to the majority of people. Only a small inside group knows what it is about. It is conducted for the benefit of the very few at the expense of the masses.
I believe in adequate defense at the coastline and nothing else. If a nation comes over here to fight, then we’ll fight. The trouble with America is that when the dollar only earns 6 percent over here, then it gets restless and goes overseas to get 100 percent. Then the flag follows the dollar and the soldiers follow the flag.
I wouldn’t go to war again as I have done to protect some lousy investment of the bankers. There are only two things we should fight for. One is the defense of our homes and the other is the Bill of Rights. War for any other reason is simply a racket.
There isn’t a trick in the racketeering bag that the military gang is blind to. It has its “finger men” to point out enemies, its “muscle men” to destroy enemies, its “brain men” to plan war preparations, and a “Big Boss” Super-Nationalistic-Capitalism.
It may seem odd for me, a military man to adopt such a comparison. Truthfulness compels me to. I spent thirty-three years and four months in active military service as a member of this country’s most agile military force, the Marine Corps. I served in all commissioned ranks from Second Lieutenant to Major-General. And during that period, I spent most of my time being a high class muscle- man for Big Business, for Wall Street and for the Bankers. In short, I was a racketeer, a gangster for capitalism.
I suspected I was just part of a racket at the time. Now I am sure of it. Like all the members of the military profession, I never had a thought of my own until I left the service. My mental faculties remained in suspended animation while I obeyed the orders of higher-ups. This is typical with everyone in the military service.
I helped make Mexico, especially Tampico, safe for American oil interests in 1914. I helped make Haiti and Cuba a decent place for the National City Bank boys to collect revenues in. I helped in the raping of half a dozen Central American republics for the benefits of Wall Street. The record of racketeering is long. I helped purify Nicaragua for the international banking house of Brown Brothers in 1909-1912 (where have I heard that name before?). I brought light to the Dominican Republic for American sugar interests in 1916. In China I helped to see to it that Standard Oil went its way unmolested.
During those years, I had, as the boys in the back room would say, a swell racket. Looking back on it, I feel that I could have given Al Capone a few hints. The best he could do was to operate his racket in three districts. I operated on three continents.
Most American soldiers died fighting foes who posed no threat to the United States. Our soldiers died for secret agendas of which they knew nothing. Capitalists hid their self-interests behind the flag, and our boys died for the One Percent’s bottom line.
Jade Helm, an exercise that pits the US military against the US public, is scheduled to run July 15 through September 15. What is the secret agenda behind Jade Helm?
The Soviet Union was a partial check on capitalist looting in the 1950s, 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s. However, with the Soviet collapse capitalist looting intensified during the Clinton, Bush, and Obama regimes.
Neoliberal Globalization is now looting its own constituent parts and the planet itself. Americans, Greeks, Irish, British, Italians, Ukrainians, Iraqis, Libyans, Argentinians, the Spanish and Portuguese are being looted of their savings, pensions, social services, and job opportunities, and the planet is being turned into a wasteland by capitalists sucking the last penny out of the environment.
As Claudia von Werlhof writes, predatory capitalism is consuming the globe.
We need a memorial day to commemorate the victims of neoliberal globalization. All of us are its victims, and in the end the capitalists also.

.....and for the profits of the politicians. Never forget that insider trading is in fact allowed for the politicians.
All Wars are Bankster Wars! The Politicians are merely puppets on their strings.
I salute you, General Butler. A true Marine.
The worst most clear cut example is that of the Lusitania and our entry into WW1.
Can we just be honest for once?
Americans die as a service to the jews.
Paul Craig Roberts is a bit of a mixed bag. Personally I find his analysis and conclusions to be largely superficial. Note that he usually promotes more government control as a solution to the problems he presents.
Here's an example of his lackadaisical style. He shows a a picture of a small black man being confronted by three large military men with rifles and tells us that this is a picture of the killing of Michael Brown:
"Ferguson, Mo. is a small overwhelmingly black town whose government and police are white. The Ferguson police murdered an 18 year old black kid who has his hands over his head. Moreover, it is unclear that the kid had committed any offense. If you take a look at the photo of the three goon thugs pointing military rifles in his face at point blank range, any one of the over-sized goons unarmed could have restrained the small kid."
http://www.sott.net/article/283859-Goon-cops-have-gone-wild-all-over-Ame...
In this article on the good general Butler I find the following quote strangely out of place: "The Soviet Union was a partial check on capitalist looting in the 1950s, 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s." It's the kind of thing that makes me think that PCR is not firing on all cylinders.
It kept the West from looting countries allied with the Soviet Union and China.
Of course, they were doing it to those countries themselves. For the smaller guys, it's always a choice of who is going to use KY when their countries are looted.
Russia and China now promise vast amounts of KY. The West is telling everyone we have no intention of using KY ever, and are proving it daily.
Who would you do business with, if you couldn't defend yourself?
"Capitalists hid their self-interests behind the flag, and our boys died for the One Percent’s bottom line"
Its NOT the 1% Paul!!! Its much much worse than that!! It's the .01%!!! If you are a so called "RICH" person making $1 MILLION dollars a year, it would take you 71,000 (71 THOUSAND) YEARS to have as much net worth as Warren Buffet!!! And thats assuming you wouldn't pay taxes on that---taxation would make it take 140,000 (THOUSAND) years--or more!! And he's just ONE person who has that much money!!
So quit trying to blame the 1%. Thats not even close to the right answer. Someone making a million a year is probably in the top .1% and look how long it would take them to make the kind of money that the Ultra-rich have.
"Give me control of a nation's money and I care not who makes it's laws" — Mayer Amschel Bauer Rothschild
I think your issue is with Butler as those are his quotes if the paragraphical insets are correct.
Some quotation marks could help.
I do like PCR, and he usually makes a good analysis, but this time is different. His frequent use of 'capitalist' makes this piece sound like something written by a literal communist, maybe a political commisar. This is the kind of shit FASCIST GOVERNMENTs do, and bankers. This is not capitalism, nor is this free markets in action. this is fascist corporatism in action, since we live in a fascist state and have for a long, long time
peruse this list of PCR's books, from Wikipedia --
Congratulations, Paul... you've just graduated from "Conspiracy Theories 101".
In "Conspiracy Theories 102", we'll learn exactly who is BEHIND the profiteering of the wars Mr. Butler outlined. I realize, 50 years as an economist, journalist and commentator may not be enough time to fully come to grips with the obvious, but at least you're showing signs of true enlightenment in your career thus far. Keep up the good work.
My purpose in posting the list was to show that PCR has distinguished intellectual and policy-making experience as a cold-warrior and capitalist. His core argument is that the US, absent a strong geopolitical rival, has become the sort of country that it claimed to be fighting against during the cold war. And a deeper look into history shows that that the US has never been the country that it has imagined itself to be. This perspective has nothing to do with right/left, red/blue. It's informed clarity vs. ignorance and hallucination.
You are not largely but indeed totally superficial AND not a mixed bag but A complete .......wind bag!
I provided documentation backing my assertions. You provided none. That makes you the "windbag."
All you proved is that PCR was working off false eyewitness accounts, like everyone else, right after the shooting. It wasn't until later autopsy results discredited the story.
What else you got?
PCR was working off false eyewitness accounts, like everyone else, right after the shooting.
You didn't read the link, did you?
PCR misidentified a photo from a Ferguson protest which shows a smallish black man being threatened with rifles by three heavily armed cops. When his error was pointed out to him he said that it wasn't his fault because the photo was in an article about Michael Brown therefore anyone would assume that it showed Brown's execution by police. Then he said that any difference between what is shown in the picture and what actually happened between Brown and Wilson was irrelevant. That's certainly no way to present an effective story on police brutality, is it?
I have received four or five emails from readers who complain that the person in the photo, which is a photo taken from media accounts, is not the person who the cops murdered in Ferguson. Why does it matter?
http://www.paulcraigroberts.org/2014/08/15/cops-gone-wild/
It wasn't until later autopsy results discredited the story.
It was known before the autopsy that Brown was not shot by three cops with rifles. His error shows that PCR did not know anything about the witness accounts as no witnesses ever said that Brown was shot at point black range by three cops with rifles. It's obvious that he had virtually no facts about the incident at all but decided to write an excoriating report based a lot of emotion and obviously false information.
What else you got?
Please go back and actually read what I have posted previously. It makes little sense for you to request additional instruction when you have completely misunderstood the previous points.
"There are no facts; only interpretations." Friedrich Nietzsche
We are caught in the middle of a war between competing apocolyptic zero sum narratives.
paging imagination..... imagination, the pilot would like a word with you on the bridge...... imagination......
Bullshit. It IS a fact that Michael Brown was not photographed being shot at point blank range by three cops.
But riddle me this: If there are no facts what's the point of following current events to begin with? Bonus points: If it's a fact that Freddy said there are no facts then did Freddy actually say it?
And did I mention that A=A?
Nice test. It helps me see how your world is constructed / how you interpret would be "facts".
In lieu of going down your carefully constructed path I'll just say this: "facts" in and of themselves mean nothing. They must be strung together into a narrative. We are made of stories. This may explain why society is running off the rails- too many disconnected, contradictory facts running wild in the paranoid monkeymind. And none are more paranoid than our so called leaders.
Cheers.
If you think that relating events as they actually occurred is a "carefully constructed path," then you're lost.
This may explain why society is running off the rails- too many disconnected, contradictory facts running wild in the paranoid monkeymind.
Exactly wrong. Folks get confused because facts are often misrepresented and/or presented in a disconnected way in order to hide reality. Only by examining empirical data and ascertaining the facts of a given situation can one understand that situation and not be confused.
On the other hand, if you are correct then there is no me, no you, no computer, no ZH, no world and no reason to discuss any of those nonentities. But we go on talking so there must be some actual discernible matter in motion around here somewhere.
Joyously shouting that you're lost in the fog is no way to ground yourself for the struggle that is life. I will say no more as this thread is getting way thin. Cheers to you, sir.
Great Depression 1929 was the culmination of a debt supercycle under sound money being found out. Germany, Japan, even France really bankrupt. What better way to clear the books and declare jubilee than to kill tens of millions and disguise default with destruction. Hitler conquered several countries with complicity of European powers without a shot. Then struck Poland. British fielded expeditionary force which "failed miserably". Back to sea at Dunkirk, but got away with small seacraft and fishing boats? Who allowed that? German High Command were probably the best educated militarists in the world--knew everything from Hannibal to Napoleon etc. Could've bagged the best fighting force of Britain. Then swept over largest land force in world, French in six weeks (conquest has a way of wiping debt). Instead of pressing the frenchmen into arms and seizing all war materiel, they allowed the sizeable French navy to escape, Mers-el-Kebir, Algeria--British sunk their "ally's" fleet. Again who was British traditional enemy? Kaiser Wilhelm was from which House? Battle of Britain using small aircraft dissuaded a German invasion? Paratroopers and a couple of divisions would've kept the southern coast from use as a launching pad for Normandy invasion. First allied invasion of continent with help of Yanks failed in Italy, but succeeded in Normandy? Then to turn the critical power of your military with an open backdoor and invade an immense country with poor infrastructure during the worst winter in decades? WOW! It would seem that Germany was wonderful at advancing the Anglo-American agenda. Coincidentally, of course.
Also and of course, one radio and one pair of reliable eyes in the Pacific would've alerted to a sizeable flotilla setting sail from Japan with munitions and aircraft carriers. But not one picket boat or submarine or fisherman or reconaissance aircraft spotted anything? Riiiight. ShinJuWan, pearl harbour.
This had nothing to do with the set up of Federal Reserve by Hamburg interests just prior to WWI. Nor did it have anything to do with revisions through Bretton Woods and establishment of new reserve currency in New Hampshire in 1944 either. Paranthetically, Germany and Japan each under unconditional surrender were rebuilt under Allied/American administration. Bundesbank and Bank of Japan were organically formed right by national interest? What was the motor of the post war period? USA. What the engine of Europe? Germany. What the engine of Asia? Japan.
Such coincidences. Why not China? Drugged up, corrupt, fiscally and monetarily in chaos. A former nation state from which all wished to trade for unique products but who wanted only gold or silver in exchange? Ripe for revolution. Mao burned the house down. All the drones and old order extinguished. Flamed the vineyard and allowed it to lie fallow. Now it is the new Engine of the world economy as the old/new world languish?
And the USA is the drugged up, corrupt at every level, counterfeit and bankrupt without any discernible future and having transgressed almost every human and hallow laws to the extent that it is ripened...for what?
If you viewed the nation-state of the USA as a plantation, what has the owner(s) deliberately sown in its fields? What is its intended purpose and products? If war, welfare, and fraud are the first fruits, what historically has been the outcome? Jubilee is desperately needed. Unable to freely do so, what will they turn to in order to camouflage what must be done? War and conflict.
The best general the allies had, Adolf Hitler, was convinced by Goering that his Luftwaffe would destroy the Brits on the beaches. Hitlers generals were livid but could not do anything about it as they would be shot. Hitler was literally commander in chief and his generals did the best they could trying to make up for Adolfs incompetence. Hitler never was interested in invading Britain, his real goal was eastern Europe and Russia. He felt the Brits would come to their senses and join him in the fight against Russia. It would have taken more than a couple of divisons to hold southern England, especially later on when when it was crawling with Americans. The French and British war machines were antiquated and no match for Hitlers modern forces and their blitzkreig tactics. The French placed huge reliance on the Maginot Line and the Germans went around it. As he confided to friends, Chamberlin had no choice but to let Hitler have the Sudetenland and eventually Czechoslovakia as Britain was in no shape for war. Even with the few years bought them the Brits were no match for Germany. The landings in Italy were poorly planned and fooled no one. In Normandy the Germans were convinced it wasn't the real invasion and held back their reserve units. The best and most experienced German troops were either dead or serving in Russia. As it was casualties for the allies were horrendous. Until late in the war Germany only occupied 1/3 of France. The puppet Vichy government ruled the rest of the French empire which included possesions in North Africa where it's fleet resided. When the allies invaded North Africa they begged the local French forces to join them in the fight against the Germans which they declined and fought the allies. Thus human and ship destruction of the French forces until they surrendered. The Japanese fleet sailed the stormy northern route under the cover of a storm. The Pacific is a very large ocean and to say they should have been spotted as they sailed through sparsely sailed waters is naive. Contrary to reports by conspiracy buffs the Japanese kept radio silence through the whole voyage, as all navies would have done. Experienced morse code radio operators can tell if a certain person is transmitting by their "hand", so the Japanese left their experienced operators at home transmitting normal traffic which led US intelligence to believe the fleet was still in home waters. The US was very complacent and arrogant thinking if Japan attacked it would be the Phillipines, which were attacked the next day. Totally unprepared even with a days warning most of the US planes were destroyed on the ground. Would have made no difference as the Japanese planes were far superior and the would have had a field day shooting them down if they got in the air.
The jews will fight to the last american, and anything else ready to be duped.
"The worst most clear cut example is that of the Lusitania and our entry into WWI." --Captain Debtcrash
...or the USS Maine. Or the Panic of 1907. Or Pearl Harbor. Or the Gulf of Tonqin. Or 9/11...
Paul Craig Roberts as usual is courageous and accurate in portraying the reasons for US wars. Here are the lies that the US has used to start wars since WW II:
6. WWII (FDR, 1941) -- Lies; Defend the US from unprovoked attacks by Japan. Truth: FDR poked Japan until he got his "incident." because he wanted to be in the war and prevent Germany from winning and emerge as a superpower (with 1. England and France under his control, and 2. Japan and Italy as buddies). FDR wanted the USA to be the only post-war superpower (with 1. Germany under our control, and 2. France and England as buddies)
7. Korean (Truman, 1950) -- Lies: Defend America. Truth: Truman and the Generals wanted a reason to have troops in the Far East area of our Empire.
8. Vietnam (Kennedy, Johnson, 1964) -- Lies: Johnson said Vietnam attacked our ships in the Gulf of Tonkin in August, 1964.Truth: The US didn’t want to lose the southeast Asia region, and its oil and sea lanes, to China. This "attack" was convenient. Kennedy initiated the first major increase in US troops (over 500).
9. Gulf War (G.H.W. Bush, 1991) -- Lies: To defend Kuwait from Iraq. Truth: Saddam was a threat to Israel, and we wanted his oil and land for bases.
10. Balkans (Clinton, 1999) -- Lies: Prevent Serb killing of Bosnians. Truth: Get the Chinese out of Eastern Europe (remember the "accidental" bombing of their embassy in Belgrade?) so they could not get control of the oil in the Caspian region and Eastward. Control land for bases such as our huge Camp Bondsteel in Kosovo, and for the proposed Trans-Balkan Oil pipeline from the Caspian Sea area to the Albanian port of Valona on the Adriatic Sea.
11. Afghan (G.W. Bush, 2001) -- Lies: The Taliban were hiding Osama. Truth: To build a gas/oil pipeline from Turkmenistan and other northern ‘xxstan’ countries to a warm water (all year) port in the Arabian Sea near Karachi (same reason the Russians were there), plus land for bases.
12. Iraq (G.W. Bush, 2003) -- Lies: Stop use of WMDs -- whoops, bring Democracy, or whatever.Truth: Oil, defense of Israel, land for permanent bases (we were kicked out of Saudi Arabia) to manage the greater Middle East, restore oil sales in USD (Saddam had changed to Euros).

Truthout has a superb article on this subject:
Lies and Consequences in Our Past 15 Warshttp://www.truth-out.org/news/item/9419-lies-and-consequences-in-our-pas...
FDR wanted to contain Japan and felt they would never attack the US but would remain in Asia. He did try to provoke Germany by sending convoys of war material to England and instructing US warships to attack German subs as they helped provide escort for the convoys. There were US troops in Korea after WW2 but in Trumans thinking the trouble with the USSR would happen in Europe not Korea or Asia so he pulled the troops out. Shortly thereafter the North attacked. The first Gulf of Tonkin incident did happen the second was bogus. Each time the US was violating North Vietnamese waters landing insurgents, an act of war by the US. The US has bombed the bejesus out of so many countries for no reason and no one declares war on them yet attack one lousy boat and they declare war. If the USSR wasn't backing the North Koreans at the time the US would have bombed them silly after they hijacked the Pueblo. If the US wanted Saddams oil why did they embargo his oil for almost 7 years? No bases came to pass either. That arguement that the US is in the ME for the oil is bogus. For control of the oil yes. Other than control of the flow of oil and the power it brings all the actions of the US have done more to keep oil in the ground. If left to their own devices all those countries would be pumping flat out. Your intimating the Chinese were going to invade Russia to get the oil from the Caspian Sea? Considering China was an outcast until Nixon thawed relations and "opened" them up to the west in 1972 why would the US care about oil and sea lanes to China in 1964?
No question there are plenty of bad examples. I just consider that the worst, since the Germans tried to warn people, the the govt tried to prevent that warning from going out, the govt also denied there were munitions, that was disproven in the 80's, and the list goes on. No question the ones you mentioned are bad, I just don't think any of them are as irrefutable.
Actually, Butler was not pro-Liberty, but had come to serve pols and crats of the socialist variety. He felt that he had been used, not by the banksters and big government, but by fascist elements in the government.
However, that does not diminish his comment one bit, as he knew as well as anyone that he, and those that had fought or died under his command, had been used for profit.
Let's raise our glasses to "War is a racket."
Liberty is a demand. Tyranny is submission..
Zion are the racketeers.
I don't deny the fact that he was a complex man, and traveled in circles no lowly NCO would ever be invited to. The fact remains that no real marine wants to lead fellow marines into a pointless death for the enrichment of the monied class. He was able to articulate this. That I salute, not the imperfect man.
There is a long video on youtube about how the monarchies of Europe plus US industrialists and the Red Shield supported Hitler and a world war for $$$$$$. The only issue was that the author of the video failed to point out the Red Shield-Zios ran the Bolsheviks in the murder of 25 million Russian Chritsians before WW2.
One interesting aspect was the industrialists/banksters for Hitler like Henry Ford, Rockefellers, Bushes, Walkers, and other elites tried to get Smedley Butler and the military to overthrow FDR and put a fascist police state in power. Not like FDR was any better.
Butler refused, ratted them out and FDR did nothing about it. I guess the rats all decided to stick together to get rich off of WW2. All evil scum.
Here is the video:

Butler was naive in thinking the Democratic republic exists after the "civil" war or the Fed in 1913. We had been sold out in 1861 or earlier.
More here. I never thought I would agree with Michael Moore or Noam Chomsky but they are right here.

"I salute you, General Butler. A true Marine."
In fact, the best marine ever. The most decorated marine. Two congressional medals of honor, IIRC, plus a bunch of other stuff
The best thing about him is that he stopped a bankster coup d' etat attempt in the U.S.
An example to current marines and military personnel.
Wake up!
"Chesty" Puller wasn't a shrinking violet either, not taking a back seat on the Kick-Ass Express.
They should turn their guns on the oligarchs instead of themselves which, they sadly are doing in greater and greater numbers.
Would appear the war was over the fact that the Banks didn't have any profits actually.
Hence "the Next War."

Not that it much matters but Insider Trading by politicians WAS allowed, but no longer is, at least in theory.
http://www.npr.org/sections/itsallpolitics/2013/04/16/177496734/how-cong...
The link is two years old. I am pretty sure I read an article here a while ago about how congress made a big deal about banning their own insider trading (but not making such a big deal about how it would take effect in one year after they passed the law). Then just before it was to take effect they repealed the law (to crickets chirping from the presstitutes). If I am wrong I would appreciate a link explaining the current situation.
You are correct. I recall that the law was actually in effect for a short period, perhaps a year and then it was unceremoniously rescinded.

I should have known to keep my eye on these bastards.
Thanks for this correction to my thinking on this subject.
Wars are started by central bankers that build up each side and then start a fight to generate money, power and influence for the bankers. I have sympathy for our veterans, but central banks have been starting wars since 1815 and even before that to manipulate people and countries for mostly profit and one world government. I did not make this up.
It's a good thing that you conveniently omitted that jew banking families are responsible for the central banking scam that otherwise operates exactly as you describe...
http://www.commondreams.org/hambaconeggs
It isn't just 'jew banking families'. There is also the Black Nobility, the old European royalty bloodlines.
I prefer to just call them assholes. Not every Jew wants to slaughter billions of people. There are probably a few royals that don't want to slaughter billions of people.
There are a few very wealthy psychopathic assholes that do want to slaughter billions of people, after they steal all their money.
And for some strange reason, they have an affinity for worshipping Lucifer. There must be a parallel there that goes beyond just perverse cult fantasies. Maybe the dude is real in some form. It wouldn't have lasted centuries if it was just snuff pedo sex.
It isn't just 'jew banking families'. There is also the Black Nobility, the old European royalty bloodlines.
The old-line ruling families who believe that they have the right to rule the world because they are descended from the emperors of the ancient Roman and so-called ’holy’ Roman Empires consist of 13-15 ’blue blood’ families.
Which include:
I prefer to just call them assholes.
You prefer to call them assholes... I just call them what they are...
Not every Jew wants to slaughter billions of people.
Probably right, yet any time you point at the problem, you get a massive campaign launched against you to brand you as an ant-semitic
There are a few very wealthy psychopathic assholes that do want to slaughter billions of people, after they steal all their money.
Yeah ~ & they're mostly jews (how hard is that to comprehend)?
And for some strange reason, they have an affinity for worshipping Lucifer. There must be a parallel there that goes beyond just perverse cult fantasies. Maybe the dude is real in some form. It wouldn't have lasted centuries if it was just snuff pedo sex.
I don't know anything about 'Lucifer', all I know is that central banks, MSM. political activism, & corrupt jurisprudence have all been hijacked by people who identify themselves as jews...
You forgot 'The Colonel". Wee bastard and his secret recipe.
I liked this effort to attempt to identify the history of those who are now the most dominate ruling classes:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yzdomBX8U0w
UROKO
you get a massive campaign launched against you to brand you as an ant-semitic
And you play right into their hands. It's foolish to go around saying things like "The Jew York media and the Jew bankers have it in for the average hard working American citizen," because the average hard working American citizen turns off completely when confronted with "Jew, Jew, Jew." If you want to convince people of something you have to know your audience. Otherwise why waste everybody's time?
That's the conundrum, isn't it Billy? Damned if you do, damned if you don't. Except if you don't then you're doubly damned. Fucking life. Love it.
You've missed my point. There is no conundrum. If you wish to convince an audience do not say things which will make your audience tune out. Why upset yourself to the point of shouting epithets if you have the facts on your side?
You also fail to understand that pretending to be anti-Semitic in order to engender sympathy is the oldest trick in the Zionist playbook. Emotional outbursts about "Jews, Jews, Jews!" serves the Zionists' purposes and not those of Anti-Zionists.
This is all pretty simple stuff. How can you not understand?
Leave him be, Billy-Bee,
He's just a goy, after all.
Maybe check this out, both of you,

Thank you Uber .. puts it all in perspective.. a real keeper video .. to pass onto kids and grandkids.
Perhaps not stupidity so much as a strange contradiction in human nature. War is not possible unless we first demonize the enemy ("Krauts", "Japs", "Gooks" and "Ragheads" are non-humans) so that, without remorse, we can murder them in the most brutal fashion. But after the war, we come to see our enemies as at least human again, and we recognize our common interests, if not our common humanity. And then, inexplicably, depressingly, the whole process begins again, and we have another war. Which is where we seem to be now.
Arrest them today and let the world rejoice next year at this time. We will come rejoicing bringing in the corporatists (which are fascists not capitalists you fool).

Americans don't want to pay for United Fruit products with American labor costs built in, they want to shop at WalMart or Amazon at the lowest perceived cost, and they want their gasoline priced in USD not CHF or CNY.

Happy cannon fodder day.
There are only two things we should fight for. One is the defense of our homes and the other is the Bill of Rights. FORECLOSURE for any other reason is simply a racket.
UPDATED. AND WILL BE USED BY ME WITH A SHOUTOUT FOR SMEDLEY.
How are we to take seriously a man who goes by the name of "Smedley"?? What parent would do that to a child??
Even the shortened form, "Smed", is poor rolling off the tongue.
He must have had a hell of a time.
You obviously never heard Johnny Cash sing, 'A Boy Named Sue':

Ol' 'Smed' became the most decorated Marine in US history. 'Nuff said.
In a similar vein, RIP Colonel David Hackworth. The truth is never cheap.
Sound familiar?
Interview with Col. David Hackworth
U.S. Army, South Vietnam
Q: What do you think the Vietcong learned from Mao Tse-tung?
Hackworth: I think the major thing was how a poor man fights a rich man... how a war can be fought employing ancient rules first developed by Sansu -- the need for patience, the need for political motivation, the need to fight a war of economy and how to employ all the rules of warfare.
Q: What lessons should the Americans have learned from the French defeat?
Hackworth: Well, I think the major lesson they should have learned was that that war didn't involve the security of France, and the security of the United States wasn't at issue either.
On a tactical level, they didn't have an objective. The Americans should have studied the lessons of the French very closely and taken something from them. A correspondent once asked General Westmoreland, the American commanding general and architect of the war, what he thought of how the French fought the war and was he studying the lessons of the French? He said, "Why should I study the lessons of the French? They haven't won a war since Napoleon." This was the American attitude of total arrogance.
We didn't learn from the past. We didn't learn from our own experience by going back to when we beat Britain in 1776. At that time the British had argued that we didn't fight in formations such as theirs, a big block formation; we didn't meet them in the open and we fought like the Indians, behind trees, using concealment and cover and so on. And a couple of hundred years later we had the British mentality towards fighting and we had forgotten the very lessons that we had taught the British.
Q: Don't you think that the United States' tremendous firepower could have won the war?
Hackworth: The war could have never been won in terms of the employment of firepower. The solution to winning the war was to cause reform in the government, to win the hearts and minds of the people, to make the cause justifiable so that the people of the country were willing to give up their lives.
This was not done. You could have used all of the firepower in the world, all the technical ability that the U.S. had to fight the enemy, and you'd have, maybe, won a temporary tactical respite. But we'd have never won the war strategically unless we had the people join our side.
The war was about the people and winning over their hearts and their minds and their allegiance to the host country. The host country in Vietnam was made up of gangsters.
As North Vietnamese General Giap quipped.. ''They can throw all the hi tech weapons they want at us but nothing can destroy the human spirit''
If you invade someone's country - they will hate your guts. And they should hate you. Stay the F out of other people's country.
War Is A Racket
"WAR is a racket. It always has been.
It is possibly the oldest, easily the most profitable, surely the most vicious. It is the only one international in scope. It is the only one in which the profits are reckoned in dollars and the losses in lives.
A racket is best described, I believe, as something that is not what it seems to the majority of the people. Only a small "inside" group knows what it is about. It is conducted for the benefit of the very few, at the expense of the very many. Out of war a few people make huge fortunes.
In the World War [I] a mere handful garnered the profits of the conflict. At least 21,000 new millionaires and billionaires were made in the United States during the World War. That many admitted their huge blood gains in their income tax returns. How many other war millionaires falsified their tax returns no one knows.
How many of these war millionaires shouldered a rifle? How many of them dug a trench? How many of them knew what it meant to go hungry in a rat-infested dug-out? How many of them spent sleepless, frightened nights, ducking shells and shrapnel and machine gun bullets? How many of them parried a bayonet thrust of an enemy? How many of them were wounded or killed in battle?
Out of war nations acquire additional territory, if they are victorious. They just take it. This newly acquired territory promptly is exploited by the few -- the selfsame few who wrung dollars out of blood in the war. The general public shoulders the bill.
And what is this bill?
This bill renders a horrible accounting. Newly placed gravestones. Mangled bodies. Shattered minds. Broken hearts and homes. Economic instability. Depression and all its attendant miseries. Back-breaking taxation for generations and generations."
~Major General Smedley Butler
1935
What would happen if no one showed up for the banker wars?
Bankers would have the draft reinstated.
Must ... have ... people ... die ... for ... profits ... and ... resources.
What if we burned the drat cards? What if we said we would not pay any taxes until the patriot act is no was no longer a law and the government stopped spying on the citizens....what if I woke up from this dream?
Yeah and how many months a year does every working American work every year for socialism? If there is a war to go to, it is to put these socialist/communist bastards into the ground!
Example #1: The BAR (Browning automatic rifle) was a game changer and was available for WWI but France made US troops use their unreliable crappy French rifles for political ($$) reasons. BAR was only used in 1918 as the war ended.
Example #2: Rockafeller pushed hard ($200 MM equivalent lobbying) for prohibition to eliminate alcohol production so everyone would have to use his gasoline for their cars. Before that, cars could already use both.
Gwar, I was drafted in 1955 and served til 1957 in a combat engineer Battalion. We had BAR's 1or 2 per 13 man squads as well as 3.5 rocket launchers and some flame throwers as well as demolitions of various assortments. Much more heavily armed than infantry Battalions.
First units in (clear out mine fields) and last ones out (lay said mine fields) on a " retreat"
I agree, one hell of a weopen but heavy as can be when fully loaded.
We bridged the Rhine river in 8 hours that took 60 ton tanks across; tore it down then had to put it up again at night.

Jim Willie from an interview a few months back, made a statement that resonated with me. He said that is quite the sobering experience to look back on what you have been told and/or learned over the years, only to find out and come to realization that what you learned and what you were told was either false, an embellished half-truth or misrepresented, all three.
The Truth actually consists of a series of tiny lies, visible only upon scrutiny.

Would some famous banker out there that has a need to be remembered as an honorable person please jump off a skyscraper tomorrow.
Quoting a 1933 turncoat Commie sympathizing General ? The leftists are celebrating Memorial Day .... kicking America .... when they go to Russia .... they fall to their knees and cry at the war memorials .... oh, the humanity .... especially that giant statue of a Russian soldier .... beaver hat and winter coat .... sporting an AK47 !
It appears 82 years later - nothing has changed.
wrong, it's worse now.
Another successful misdirection. War is the State outwardly reachings its tentacles of power, once they control all tyhings domestic it follows they naturally go abroad. Government is the one making the dumbass choice of war, not a bank. Quite frankly now "banksters" (term used by those who can't read a balance sheet) must be egging on entitlements since that spending dwarfs war. Right?
Government .... good .... bankers .... bad .... what socialist boiler plate ?
My Dad fought and lived so I would not have to speak German.
SALUTE
In WWII .... one US soldier was punished by death .... how many Germans, Russians faced a firing squad .... we have the best, fun loving military in history .... I salute them !
If you are from North America, Hitler didn't want you to speak German. We were business partners right up until the end.
Your Dad fought to keep the NWO on track, and generate profits. Just like all my relatives. And every other soldier in uniform for hundreds of years.
I hope the fuck he wasn't fighting for your sorry ass.
We speak German here in the Netherlands, and French and Spanish. Required languages starting in second grade. including English.

Because I speak German I have gotten high paying jobs here in Europe. Put that in your pipe and smoke it.
Now that's a General!
Happy memorial day General Butler, where ever you are.
Dialectic is when you hold the axis of the world, and it spins in your hands. By gripping both poles of the world, you can direct its outputs. As controller, you always win.
Or, you are two paws of a cat, bouncing the mouse back and forth at will. As long as you are the cat’s head, which controls the earth, then you care not the system.
In the case of communism, a vertical pyramid is formed: The head of pyramid is money power, political power, military power, and media power all concentrated into one person, or a small clique of oligarchs. Communism is a pure top down pyramid control slavery system.
PCR is right in that communism did act as a brake on predatory capitalism. But, let’s not forget it was our friendly in-group tribe that funded and created Communism. It was their tribe member Marx that invented communist doctrine. Of course, Marx conveniently doesn’t mention the action of monetary usury in his writings, thus protecting his financial patrons and their rent schemes on humanity. Not mentioning these underlying forces makes Marx complicit in the hypnotic pall cast over man’s mind.
Marx must have known he was doing the work of evil, because at the end of his life he mentions how his soul is destined to hell, and he is most unhappy.
Financial Capitalism is a hidden money power pyramid, whereby private credit as money harvests humanity by directing production and controlling politics. Prices attract money, and this money is distributed as wages. Unearned increment of production, meaning the real productivity of a people amplified by machines and creativity, then vectors to those who created the capital i.e. bankers. This theft system also makes slaves, as people cannot keep their real output, and then shifts money as wealth to in-group tribe, thus the dialectic is complete.
PCR has a little soul searching to do, as he was part and parcel of TINA (there is no alternative), where capital markets were given free hand to increase material production, e.g. supply sider. It seems he is in mea-culpa mode.
PCR has yet to admit that it is private banker credit at the root of the problem. Private Credit has unwanted positive feedback that causes bubbles. It channels according to the wishes of a debt instrument. This money type relates to a debt instrument and doesn’t do the bidding of a sovereign people. This type of credit is international and flows outside of a nations boundaries, breaking the prime directive of currency. (A sovereign people should have their own money.)
OK, PCR does admit to deficit spending by government is what stimulated production in his time at Treasury, which is correct. But, why be an apologist for broken system, when you have this kind of deep understanding?
Social Security and all the other schemes for re-distribution are because banker credit money system itself steals through usury and being mal-formed.
It is much more than glass-steagall being broken, or 100% reserves, or even the latest Judeo dialectic schemes of return to gold standard.
Money itself is broken, and hence Capitalism is broken. Owners of the dialectic derive parasitic rental benefits for their in-group, and they cannot be trusted to speak the truth. Those of the tribe that do find moral fortitude and rise above, and speak out against, their mind control system should be applauded.
The plain brutal fact is that money is law, and it should flux in accordance with the economic needs of a population.
Man is controlled by money and prices. Fix money and throw off the yoke of our dialectic masters.

It's your duty to die for the flag. We have two American flags always: one for the rich and one for the poor. When the rich fly it it means that they are making shit loads of money and things are under control; when the poor fly it it means they are in the bottomless cesspool, and they are danger, revolution, anarchy.
Dielectic .... a free society will tend to have two major political parties (Coke and Pepsi) .... a left hand and a right hand .... on the steering wheel .... if corruption of the vote occurs .... one hand will over power the other .... the left hand will cause a head on crash .... the right hand will run you into the ditch (occasional recession) .... hopefully a soft landing .... get back on the road .... full speed ahead !
There is no free society. There are only slaves and slaveowners, if you ask George Carlin.
George Carlin was a funny guy .... can't take that away .... humour is an exageration of the the truth and all that .... he was also full of shit in many ways .... humour can be based on the percieved leftist truths of a brain dead leftist fan club .... Rush is real humour 24/7 .... with no BS .... there, FIFY !
Rush is bullshit Team Red statist propoganda 24/7 FIFY ;-)
Don't let his down home ways fool you .... he has a mind like a bear trap .... and the memory of a thousand elephants !

Truly impressive memory, with all the Oxycontin and Xanax and all.
Big hypocrite, kinda like you.
War is a Racket, even us grunts are in on Joke. I get the idea that no one on this site or damn few gives a shit about what and why - but for those that didn't come back from the sandbox - RIP. For anyone related to the 1/6 - Semper Fi.
Fuck the MIC
Something something decentralize all the things...
Just slightly different in that other peoples children ( mainly arab/sunni muslim brainwashed fodder guided by cutthroat opportunists and funded by ' round up the usual suspects ' ) are used as proxies to fight the bankers wars,
War is financed by the FED and FIAT - the bankers love the interest, they could give a shit about the principal ever being paid back since they can create "money" out of thin air on any whim or desire.....
When I went to Danang, Vietnam in 1971. during in processing EVERYONE had to sign up for a CHASE MANHATTAN account for our pay to be sent to. Thats when I started questioning EVERYTHING about that war. It only got worse. Luckily after dodging rockets and mortars for a year, I got out alive.
I made up my mind I would try my best to pay as little taxes as possible.
So, Chase Manhattan got the government contract in the bidding process .... I'll bet all your pork and beans came from the same packing house .... what a naive fuck you are ?
That's the point. He realized war was just business extended. Not for Freedom and Liberty.
Don't get me wrong .... I enjoy your comments .... and back you up on the tax thing .... I was in Damn Danang, too .... overnight ! LOL
Chicken hawk.
Coward and a hypocrite.
All dictatorships are left wing .... a so called right wing dictatorship .... is merely a left wing dictatorship .... which is relatively slightly to the right .... of it's left wing cousins .... like national socialism .... pro-abortion, Jew hating, anti-gay, big government national SOCIALISM !
While someone's child lies face down in a ditch a group of sociopaths plan the next conquest.
There's a never ending supply of fodder awaiting the shuttle into no man's land.

Fletcher Prouty (Mr. X in JFK) names the General walking pas the shooters in Dallas. He was in civilian clothes and they were the hoboes including Woody Harrelson's old man.
Prouty has a lot of videos on MIC, wars, JFKs assasination and other things.
He said after WW 2 in the Pac Theater, he asked a supply officer or NCO if they were shipping all the hardware back to the States. The supply guy said no. He said some of it was going to Korea and the rest to IndoChina (Vietnam). This was in 1945. These war$$$$ are planned out way in advance.
I turned 18 in 1972 as the war was winding down. I registered for the draft. My number was 254, but my chances for getting called up by that time were nil as the war was about over.
Instead, I enjoyed the yuppie 4 yrs of college from 1972-6.
When I visited the Vietnam Memorial in Washington years later, I reailzed how young , naive and stupid I was....especially back then.
But the most eerie thing about the wall was that it started on the left side with a very narrow panel with a single soldier, and for a while, onlly a few soldiers. Just a trickle of names. Then the panel got wider and as I walked further to the right, and into the timeline , the number of names swelled as the wall got higher as it recessed deeper and deeper into the hill. As I kept going, the wall finally got shorter again as the hill receded, and the number of names fewer as the war wound down. Which one of those poor bastards was the unluckiest? The first, the one of the multitudes in the middle, or the last?
PCR is absolutely spot on. I think as we at least pay rememberance to those who died, we should also have a wall of shame for those chicken hawks who talk the talk, but when the chips were down, were wealthy enough, connected enough, and cowardly enough to do nothing more than save their own skin. Is there such a web site?
Start out with Slick Willie Clinton , Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh, "W", Quale. There should be a web site full of these, especially those CEOs who profit from the military industrial complex. I understand that there is a legitimate need for a certain amount of weapons for our reasonable defense/national security, but what goes on now with the dispersal of weapons all over the world goes way beyond any reasonable need for defense. Death Merchants.
I served in the Corps during the 90's.
By the end of my service, I'd wondered why the U.S. has such a large footprint, overseas, and why the armed forces were so large, at the time. Granted, there had been huge cuts after the USSR collapsed, in fact it was Cheney who got that ball rolling, however the force was still too large in the late-90's. Goes to prove that TPTB always need a large force at the ready, that way they can send in their muscle men any time they want to do so.
It was interesting to serve during a period where the U.S. was intervening in places all over the globe, but I just couldn't put my finger on why we were in those places, and who was telling the government to send us there. It wasn't until I started scouring newsgroups, and reading books, for answers, that it hit me like a ton of bricks. Stephanie Gutmann's "A kinder, Gentler Military", and Robert Baer's "See No Evil", are two books which brought things more into focus for me. The U.S. as been an interventionist nation for over 100 years, now. The military has been turned into a career path ofr too many, like working at the Dept. of Agriculture, or any other huge bureaucracy, for that matter.
Until a critical mass of people get pissed off enough to band together and make the U.S. government change its ways, things are only going to get worse.
Most of what PCR wrote is factual, except for his opinion which is
that "nothing has changed since 1914". Tech and "knowledge" has gotten better, but many got worse due to ethics.
1. Edward Bernays
2. Saul Alinsky
3. Bretton Woods-taking the U.S. off of the gold standard
4. Mass Marketing through the MSM- not limited to the promo/propoganda of the Beatles, Elvis, Marilyn Monroe...
5. The conversion of the recreational mind candy industry to a sinister violent black market.
6. The emergence of the obesity epidemic in this "great nation"
7. The "non-materialistic draft dodging" beatniks threw the younger generation in an oil war so petrodollars can provide liquidity to criminal, failed banks to create counterfeit subprime financed real estate ponzi schemes to rob people in need of shelter- which is the younger adult generation who was thrown into the boomers' garbage oil war by the boomers when the voting and fiscal majority elected freaks killed the U.S. economy.
(most young adults went into the U.S. military because of the crap economy- I fail to understand how this is any "better" than selective service).
8. Families are less cohesive because the masses have been instructed by trends in the lame stream mainstream that people should carry an inferiority complex and hate themselves at all times because they are not thin/muscular enough, not rich enough, not tall enough, not fashionable enough, not popular enough, not trendy enough, not white enough....they didn't do enough drugs, that they're not attractive, that they're boring, etc. etc. where infested families will reinforce this train of thought.
I learned to avoid dating assholes who pretty much came from broken families because they don't know how to get over it- many are in middle age who if married, did it for show.
Only in the U.S. will people marry each other to betray each other, people have kids as meal tickets;
The only people you can really trust are those who don't do drugs and take good care of their dogs. And a few grounded immigrants, but that selection is dwindling I'm afraid to say.
There is a BIG difference between a banking oligopoly initiating war for profit and a banking oligopoly that has war initiated against itself. This last war in the World is being waged against the banksters and their sizable holdings. The mere concentration of wealth transfer promulgates wars for scarce resources of wealth, and that automatically sets up the largest holders of wealth as targets in war. In order to deflect being a target of war the oligopoly must invent distraction through pre-emptive wars with whomever they feel is suitable for Hegemonic destruction. This time out the Americans are out-gunned by the Russian Federation, China, India, Japan, North Korea, et cetera. Moreover, as soon as the Americans start their proverbial shit once again the Russian Federation will simply start nuking the USA back into the dark ages where knuckle dragging neocons n' libtards belong. The American government is literally too stoooopid to realize that it's GAME OVER for the USA Hegemony and Wall Street largesse. March 10th 2008 marked the death of the Corporation of the United States of America, but they could not wrap their collective heads around that so they bought time by printing seven years worth of Quantitative Denial and now the REPO man is calling the tow truck company.
There is no doubt that Smedley Butler's analysis of the problems is CORRECT, however, when one turns to his recommendations for "solutions" one finds but yet another list of impossible ideals, which are not possible to actually implement. While Butler's list of possible ways to restrict the banksters' from having their wars based on deceits back up their debt slavery systems are superficially interesting, like ALL other similar lists, those have no practical political ways to ever be implemented, given the realities of the vicious spirals of the funding of politics already having become sick and insane social storms of exponentially increasing debt insanities provoking death insanities.
By and large, although my recommendations are just as practically impossible as those of everyone else that I am currently aware of, I attempt to tack as close to the wind of the social storms that we are inside of now as possible, in order to promote harder forms of political science fiction, that correspond as closely as possible with what actually exists, and how and why that is what actually exists: Money is necessarily measurement backed by murder. The debt controls are necessarily backed by the death controls. There are NO genuine solutions that would not depend upon better death control systems. However, understanding what that would mean, after the already achieved progress in physical sciences, would take a profound series of intellectual scientific revolutions, which changed the ways that we perceived the death control systems.
Of course, the ONLY things that we can actually do is continue to muddle through the madness of the currently existing combined money/murder systems, which are based on the maximum possible frauds and deceits, while those systems are operated by the best professional liars and immaculate hypocrites. BUT NEVERTHELESS, any realistic solutions to the real problems, that pretty well all wars for a few Centuries have been the banksters' wars, would require developing better death control systems, to adequately replace and sufficiently substitute for the death controls systems that currently exist, in order to back up the existing debt control systems.
Put in a more abstract way, natural selection always existed, and drove artificial selection systems to develop. Better artificial selection systems are theoretically possible, however, not without profound paradigm shifts in political science, in order that our understanding of politics became more consistent with our understanding of physical science. Of course, at the present time it appears far more probable that people who want to continue to believe in old-fashioned religions and ideologies are going to dominate the political processes that apply electronics and atomic energy in ways whereby the human species commits collective suicide.
There is almost total resistance amongst both the ruling classes, as well as those they rule over, throughout both the core systems of organized crime, and the controlled opposition groups that surround them, to perceive their death control systems differently. However, nothing else is within the same order of magnitude of the problems generated by progress in physical science, without any similar progress in political science. Such political progress is theoretically possible, but practically impossible, due to the ways that political processes are currently almost totally dominated by the biggest bullies' bullshit social stories, and that includes their controlled opposition groups just as much, if not more so, that it does the biggest bullies and their buddies themselves.
Of course, Butler was CORRECT regarding his analysis, but he did NOT go into deeper analysis, and therefore, his proposed "solutions" were impractical ... At the present time, there are NO "practical solutions," but only runaway debt insanities headed towards provoking death insanities, in contexts where practically everyone refuses to face the facts about how the death control systems have actually developed, and therefore, of course, are totally unwilling and unable to develop better death control systems.
you know what struck me when I visited Arlington National Cemetery?
The contrast between the high number of Jewish neocons who so advocated for the war in Iraq.
And how very, very few Stars of David there are there.
Just sayin'...
We are told that we should “honor” our military men who “sacrificed” their lives and health so we could live in “freedom”. I have yet to see anyone properly describe this “honor” that we should grant to them. We are frequently reminded that America owes gratitude to military men because they sacrificed for our freedoms. It is time to set the record straight: there is no factual basis for such service. As I’ve noted a few times: World War I was the war to end war. So, what did we do at its end? “We” gave all of Russia to Judeo-Bolsheviks. WW2 was the war to make the world safe for democracy. After it was over we gave three quarters of Europe and all China to Judeo-Bolsheviks. These Judeo-Bolsheviks were busy with their religious duty before these World Wars, "Thanks to the terrible power of our International Banks, we have forced the Christians into wars without number. Wars have a special value for Jews, since Christians massacre each other and make more room for us Jews. Wars are the Jews' Harvest: The Jew banks grow fat on Christian wars. Over 100-million Christians have been swept off the face of the earth by wars, and the end is not yet." -- Rabbi Reichorn, speaking at the funeral of Grand Rabbi Simeon Ben-Iudah, 1869 In between the two World Wars, General Butler made a notable discovery: “I suspected I was just part of a racket at the time. Now I am sure of it. Like all members of the military profession I never had an original thought until I left the service. My mental faculties remained in suspended animation while I obeyed the orders of the higher- ups. This is typical with everyone in the military service.” General Smedley Butler. USMC (Ret.) Korea? We gave half of it to Judeo-Bolsheviks. Vietnam? We built up the infrastructure of South Vietnam, left a billion dollars-worth of military gear and weapons on the ground, and oil tank farms brimming with jet fuel – and gave it all to Judeo-Bolsheviks. Persian Wars? They were engaged to establish democracy in the region. Something seems to have gone wrong, however; for, Iraq is now ruled by death squads and Judeo-Bolsheviks control its oil and the pipeline American taxpayers built from Iraq to Israel. As a response to events of 9/11, we were told that “Arabs hate us because of our freedoms.” Almost immediately, the White House announced plans to establish a Department of Homeland Security. It became law a year later; and created an agency modeled after French committees of terror (1792-4), the Judeo-Bolshevik Cheka and the Nazi Schutzstaffel. This agency – actually, organ of terror – quickly armed itself with 2-3 billion rounds of ammo… an amount sufficient to wage an Iraqi War, at its highest rate, for 25 years. Remember, so-called terrorists do not travel as armies; but, rather cells of 5-10… and the DHS needs 2-3 billion rounds of ammo for these tiny cells? Guess again. And, why is the DHS recruiting, training and protecting informers? By the act of Congress that established the DHS a system was created by which informers could make false allegations against anyone they please with near-total impunity. Of course, such informers aren’t described as informers; rather they are given the title “submitting person” and the DHS Act provides that their falsehoods will never be examined by any court or legislature or law enforcement agency. The legislation even specifies how this immunity is obtained. The “submitting person” only has to give an “express statement” that his lies were “voluntarily given” and that he expected “protection from disclosure”. Normally immunity is decided on a case-by-case basis by bureaucrats or prosecutors. But not here. Under the DHS Act, authority to grant immunity is given to those who provide false testimony. What more could as thief want? It’s all there, in the act that created the DHS. And so, the DHS Act completely demolished due process of law: the only reasonably effective process by which men have protected their liberties. Does this mean that Congress has been captured by terrorists? Is this a picture of “protecting America’s freedoms”? Until those who suggest can support their proposals with historical examples, they only mislead… and make the work of Judeo-Bolsheviks (JB’s) immeasurably easier. See the account of their Exodus from Russia, as related by the Los Angeles Times. No, the country has no such liability to military men. Instead, the country owes them a huge apology for employing them as dupes who assisted munitions makers and international banks (dominated by JB merchants and money lenders) to plunder the earth, murder hundreds of millions and ruin lives of another billion or so. Of course, some of those “dupes” actually enjoyed their work as destroyers of civilized society; we owe them nothing. So, what can we do about this guys?
At this point all that can be done is informing family and loved ones of the truth and bloging as you just did...
People that understand the truth are an extreme minority.. We need to continue to spread the truth...
But then we have disinfo agents like Beck, AJ, Hanity to try to overcome..... lol
"Paul Craig Roberts: "Our Soldiers Died For The Profits Of The Bankers""
Spoken like a true leftist. Our soliers died for the folly of ignorance; nations repudiating freedom, embracing statism, whether that statism was of the form of facism or communism, or some other variant of authoritarian state.
"... purpose behind the Saudi Arabia-funded Islamic State was a simple one: use the Jihadists as the vehicle of choice to achieve a political goal: depose of Syria's president Assad, who for years has stood in the way of a critical Qatari natural gas pipeline..."
The problem with this claim, repeated over and over and over here, is that this pipeline if it were even built would be too long to protect, and more importantly would compete with Israel's Leviathan gas find. Most of which, of course, is Syria, Lebanoon and Palestine's.

You'd have to be a fucking idiot to think the US is doing its best to fracture Iraq and Syria in line with long standing Israeli goals

In order to run through gas pipelines from an Arab state that would DIRECTLY COMPETE WITH ISRAEL'S SALES.
This is so obvious I have to wonder if the Tylers are in fact deliberately planting disinfo to obfuscate the Centrality of Israel in Washington and the neocon deep state.
"“The Unfolding of Yinon’s ‘Zionist Plan for the Middle East’: The Crisis in Iraq and the Centrality of the National Interest of Israel,” illustrates how the ethno-sectarian fragmentation and internecine warfare between Shiites and Sunnis is in line with the Yinon plan to enhance Israel’s security and was ignited by the neocon-inspired US invasion of Iraq in 2003. Netanyahu and the neocons currently view Iran as a greater threat in the Middle East than ISIS, and while they advocate US military intervention, they emphasize that such intervention should not empower Iran, notes Stephen Sniegoski."

There is no fucking way the US puppet government, the ZOG is doing what Zionist warmongering cunts have written about wanting to do since the early 80s, if not earlier, while Israeli is actively assisting Al Qaeda in Syria, so that Qatar can sell gas to Europe and lessen the value of Israel's eastern med gas fields, which they will expand by reinvading Lebanon, and simply stealing what would be Gaza and Lebanese and Syrian gas - and of course you will be a filthy anti-semite if you note that this is precisely what they are doing.
Its the fucking Zionazis most of all, and *obviously* so.
"Far from admitting defeat, Benjamin Netanyahu is planning to sabotage the agreement between Washington and Teheran which is to be signed the 30th June 2015. In order to do so, he could restart the war in Syria. His idea is to continue the work already accomplished by the Islamic Emirate in Iraq, Syria, Libya and Yemen, by applying the Wright plan and creating an independent pseudo-Kurdistan straddling Iraq and Syria."

ZH ought to stop repeating this disinfo about Qatari pipelines. It is palpable nonsense.
In Vietnam (circa 1969) I was a Huey crew chief. Was witness to men dying and many wounded while bringing them back from the field to Da Nang. Every LZ I dropped men some would end up dead or wounded.
Was gung ho and bought into all the commie horse hockey of the day... until I saw McNamara admit that the Gulf of Tonkin was Bullshit, as in never happened. I cannot tell you how enraged I was. More enraged when the American people never marched on DC in protest. It was at that point I started investigating all the wars, run into General Butlers book which confirmed it was all bullshit. Even MacArthur and Patten hinted about it, but did their duty. MacArthur sadly put down the Bonus protesters. That made it clear to me the military would have no problem breaking their oath to the constitution to obey the elite in charge.
Why do many who know the truth refuse to acknowledge it? Because it would make the loss of their family members and friend meaningless. So they continue with the hero model to satisfy themselves it wasn't for nothing. They don't understand that letting it continue only causes heartaches and tears for others.
I wasn't a hero, nor was I fighting for freedom and the American way. I was just another pawn on someones chessboard fighting to push the American Government's will on other peoples. This saddens me greatly.
One wonders why with today's internet full of knowledge people would still volunteer to fight to enforce the empire's will. It's my opinion many actually like the idea of being the feared big boy on the block. A bully in other words. The same thing we punish kids in schools for.
America is creating enemies planet wide. Today, an article indicating it actually created the same ISIS it claims to be fighting. For sure this will come back to haunt America,,, and it won't be pretty.
I was at DaNang 71-72. I remember the big election for the South Vietnamese. AFRTS and the USA media said 95 percent of South Vietnamse voted for President Thieu.
So I asked my hootch maid if she voted that day. She said she didn't know anything about an election.
Thank you.
I thank you for your service and your candor.
Glad you survived the MIC. Hope we all do.
Glad you mentioned MacArthur and his sadistic terrorization of the Bonus Army in Washington DC. The video is online and it shows MacArthur pushing the Bonus Army past an area that he was required to evict them. This action alone makes certain that MacArthur was more tyranical with the Bonus Army than he was ordered to be by the Commander in Chief. Frankly, every time I watch that old Bonus Army footage and hear Butler's speech I can't help thinking that we are witnessing the same thing today on a larger scale. Smed Butler was an honourable American for stating his views back then. Today the CIA would probably off someone like Butler. Sorry to see you witnessed the Vietnam War, glad you made it out brains intact.
At least you finally figured it out.

This is quite a smear against Capitalism considering it has never existed.
Simply replace the false word, Capitalism, with the true word, Corruption, and pieces like this are somewhat corrected.
Under passing a treaty under secretary under three branches of Elected officials. House, Senate, and Congress.
Let's play a game under your transparency rules. Hypothetical. You pass a treaty without any exposure of what's in it.
The exercise, we take down every fucking house, senate ans congress members for violating the Constitutional Laws. We keep you in jail until we find out more information.
It could happen at any moment for the three branches of law
Keep it in mind
Could you or someone else please translate or restate what you are attempting to communicate?
The same shit was said about communism when it fell.
I went to a history class in 1999 where 98% of the students and professor said "communism did not fall. That was not communism, that was corruption. etc."
I dropped that class that same day.
Stupid is as stupid does. Communism is as communism does. Capitalism is as its representatives do.
Nah, words are important. They need to be attached correctly to the facts that they are meant to define. To equate communism, capitalism, and corruption is not factual.
but its libertarian; you can hang your hat on that sleight of hand and say : I am against all facts I just believe in what my guts tell me!
Old quote: "In capitalism, man exploits man. In Communism, it is the other way round."
Dumb comment. No one, at least me is equating the two. DA!
Its a f'n analogy.
Stupid is as stupid odes
