Or call it ;" The perpetual war machine". All wars are dirty by definition and reality, and invariably whoever gets involved in a war gets dirty and bloody. The problem though with the U.S. is that of its involvement one way or the other in all wars combined and continuously for the past 150 years. There's no conflict or war practically where we didn't have a hand in directly or indirectly, no regime change or even civil-war where American hands were not bloodied and dirtied.
We don't seem to care, we even by now learned to call it patriotism, for the sake of liberty and freedom, for true democracy, and all wars are for the defence of our values, regrettably we repeated these words so many times that we tend to seriously and sincerely believe it by now. People all over and more so here in the U.S. are coming to realize that wars are the reason their well-being is coming to threatening levels of slow-down, their lifestyle is worsening, as more and more social programs and infrastructure are eroding. Only the war-machine and the financial capitalism and their lobbies and politicians running at full steam against the interests of the absolute majority of society.
The problem is that neither our politicians nor the people at large know how to stop this crazy train of devastation. One thing for sure is that we're all addicted to our past ways of adventurism, going into aimless wars, and backing failing schemes of domination, imperialism and exploitation. All this is for sure a major source of deplorable strangulation of our resources and social welfare to all.
Violence, brutality, crime, suicides, mass murders, whether individually or collectively under the banners of armies and defence slogans are becoming the norms and a regular feature of our daily life, and it's at all levels of the population, just a quick glance at America or Israel will confirm this reality.
Stalinism and Nazism attained and enacted spectacular levels of crime to secure absolute power and hegemony, but the criminal acts and present day adventurism and wars that are all performed away from the public eye, and backed by lies and demagogy, using patriotism, theocracy and fear slogans plus the dubious interests are nowadays far more dangerous in reaching and subduing and programing the collective mind of the population, imposing their total domination on their particular populations and the entire world.
This post modernism financial class, using Orwellian tactics and language, has no relation to the territories nor to communities, and surely not to the welfare of its citizens, its only concern are increasing production, perpetuating consumerism and increasing its own profit.
One of the faithful servants of this class, Carl Rove, once wrote; "That's not the way the world really works anymore, we're an empire now, and when we act, we create our own reality, and while you're studying that reality, we'll act again, creating other new realities, which you can study too, and that's how things will sort out. We're history's actors.... and you , all of you will be left to just study what we do". It sure sums it all up, it sure describes how the future destruction of the future is taking shape. Where illusion replaces reality, and chaos prevails, and wild crazy capitalism destroys and dismantle the social civilization.
And by the way, isn't it high time Americans start admitting that not a single war in the last 5 or 6 decades, in the Middle-East, Asia, Africa or Central America, has gone as we planned or even hoped for, but as we all would agree that all of our adventures had a very devastating and fatal results to the people of the countries involved and to our economies and our losses in personnel.
We all tend to forget the possibilities of any war escalating into a nuclear war, or even the chances of an accidental nuclear encroachment, where once triggered even by a mistaken button activation or a computer malfunction , or a hack, or an over function of a system and suddenly PUFF !! Humanity as we know it is no more , it will all disappear.
My usual many thanks to all my good readers ....
