Top Democrats Propose Bribe to Quell Muslim World
"Top Democrats Propose Bribe to Quell Muslim World The Democrats still don't get it. Muslim militants openly declared war on the world not because they are economically disadvantaged or societal outcasts, but because they are determined to topple capitalism and communism and create a global society based on Islam. Their society would be based on a militant form of government much like the Taliban - a world in which women have absolutely no rights. Ironically, many of the crowd that is supporting their cause with their checkbooks are women who would suffer immediately should the Islamists succeed."read now

Land of the Serf by Joseph Sobran
To many Americans, fighting for the U.S. Government means fighting for “America,” and America, no matter how tyrannous its government becomes, always remains, in their minds, a synonym for freedom. Some of these people may even hate what the government has done to this country, yet they are always eager to support it when it goes to war — even when war means new restrictions on freedom at home.

Empire of Dirt by Bill Bonner
"What I don't understand," Elizabeth began a conversation on our last day in Rome, "is why the barbarians – the Huns, the Goths, the Vandals and so forth, wanted to destroy the empire? They could see that people lived better inside the empire than outside...I mean, they had central heating, warm baths, art...and just look at all those beautiful buildings. Wouldn't it have made more sense for them to join it, rather than tear it down?"

Patriot Act Enhancement Provides Death Penalty For Any Federal Crime Punishable By Over One Year In Jail
The proposed legislation would do two things. First, it would make 23 crimes eligible for the death penalty. Second, it would create an unprecedented "catch-all" death penalty for any other federal crime punishable by more than a year in prison if it meets the PATRIOT Act's overbroad definition of terrorism and results in death.

Churchill for dummies by Michael Lind
Citing Churchill to support Bush’s war to rid Iraq of alleged weapons of mass destruction was particularly ironic in light of Churchill’s own record with respect to WMDs in Iraq. As colonial secretary in 1919, Churchill wanted to use gas against the ‘unco-operative Arabs’ in Iraq. He explained, in terms that Saddam might have used to justify his gassing of Iraqi Kurds, ‘I do not understand the squeamishness about the use of gas. I am strongly in favour of using poison gas against uncivilised tribes.’

Ideological Hegemony: Thought Control in American Society
Certain fundamental principles are never questioned - capitalism, private property, the state, imperialism and other assumptions . . .

The legitimacy of private property, the state, etc. is always assumed.

In most conflicts, that when the "gunphobics" decide to square off against the "gun lovers," the gun lovers almost always win. To beat us, you have to become just like us.

"Comfortable" War Propaganda by William Marvel
The truly amazing thing about Americans is that they still fall for it every time. Yet who can blame them? In yesteryear it was the establishment-owned newspapers that predigested our history for us as it happened, feeding us bland paste in lieu of truth. Their successors, the television networks owned by the corporations that own our government, mold our minds much more effectively. Through the medium of a mesmerizing screen they can much more easily persuade us to believe the phalanx of expensively clad liars who sanitize the theft of a presidential election, or disguise the real motives behind the latest war of the rich against the poor.

A 'social obligation' to give our money to criminals?
The notion that the government is doing us a favor by looting as much as they deem necessary from our paychecks to feed, clothe and school the children of the drunken, the dissolute, the shiftless, the illegitimate and the criminal -- spreading the wealth of the nation as evenly as possible, like spreading manure on a field -- has a name. It's called "socialism." Or, in less euphemistic parlance, "communism."
