He especially noted that those serving were exploited, in the sense that some of them wondered if they were committing what most of us would call murder. All this in the name of fighting the "war on terror".
And worse, Sy believes Cheney's left a bunch of goons in Obama's adminstration
Did I mention that the new administration doesn't take kindly to this linguistic contradiction of a "war on terrorism"? They may say its only a memo, but I haven't heard Obama cite that stupid phrase in his rhetoric.
8 years of death and a loss of our spirit because of this so-called "war". When are people going to realize terrorism is a SYMPTON, not the DISEASE??
The thing that boggles me to this day, and probably till I die, is that I don't feel comfortable about September 11, 2001. How many times have we known that BushCorp was feeding lies to the public? Where are those WMD again? "We don't torture"? I mean, the Pentagon even had their own propaganda program to turn the Fourth Estate into a bullhorn for war. With that said, how can we even believe the official story about 9/11. EVERYTHING about this "war on terrorism" is traced back to 9/11. EVERYTHING has been justified by the events of that day.
Yet BushCorp resisted a serious inquiry into the events of that fateful day. When they conceded, they wanted to put the shady Henry Kissinger in charge. Then they said Bush and Cheney would testify under a load of suspicious circumstances.
Bush and Cheney did not testify before the panel -- they were not under oath and there was to be no recording made of the session nor a stenographer in the room.
The two members of the White House counsel's staff were expected to take notes during the session, and the commission members were also allowed to take handwritten notes.
As The Nation suggested, if there's no record, how can there be any accountability?
You might be thinking, "So you are saying that Bush and Cheney committed 9/11? Its an inside job?"
And I'll say, "I don't know. But I know that the official story is full of unanswered questions and anomalies. And to base a "war" on events we don't fully overstand, well that tastes like stupidity or something sinister. Personally, I think both..."
And some final bit of truth, the Pentagon had plans to stage terrorist attacks in the USA in order to justify their militaristic, capital-driven campaign against Cuba. No lie. Operation Northwoods was no conspiracy theory. It was a conspiracy, plain and simple.
Don't take what I say for truth. Same goes for those who claim to be "fair and balanced". Do your own homework. Don't live on your knees. Die on your feet. The truth hurts, but its the only thing that'll set us free.
