(Just don't go strolling around and step on one of those 86 million unexploded cluster bombs.)

Does one understand how ˜Western civilization', until recently touted as ˜the free world,' currently operates.? After putting Laos on the ˜community of nations' map as the-most-bombed-ever nation in the world, it is now forgiven for causing trouble by its hating colonialism and the capitalism that always drove it. The U.S. masters of the universe now graciously ˜determine' Laotians not to be really communists deserving of being quarantined off from the capitalist system of the ˜New World Order. And ˜community of nations' entrepreneurial businessmen gon' turn this whole secret CIA war thing into a tourist attraction. The New York Times will help.

As opposed to making happiness, ˜making' money from capital provided by hellish misery is more important than anyone's feelings. Humanity itself is capital for, say, a David Rockefeller, who sets the pace for other Americans and Trilateralists to follow.

These Laotian communist leaders apparently are unswayed by the New York Times desperately manipulating the news by selection and omission in order to continue to foster a claim that capitalism works for more than just its wealthy corporate owners.

Right now no one seems more pathetically mixed up than Americans.
The New York Times, leading the conglomerate media cartel would like us to believe otherwise, and that it's the quaint hillbilly populations in the bludgeoned former outright colonial world that can't seem to get rid of this idea that capitalism is bad both as an economic order locally as well as imperially.

The capitalism experienced by a countries like Laos as a French colony was racist and inhuman. Economic neo-colonialism is even worse.

Fulller writes in that well established vein of communist run nations attributed fairy tale like ˜opening up to the outside world' as if these wayward, outlaw countries had themselves sealed themselves up and not been blockaded, quarantined, contained, sanctioned, and branded as pariah international criminal governments that no American or friend of America shall visit or trade with. (God forbid they should prosper and make themselves free from the neo-colonialism oppressing the majority of human beings on Earth).

In one sense these deliberate false descriptions and misrepresentations to ˜show' how communist economics can never be successful in a capitalist world are part of a sad truth, but ˜the times, they are a changing.'

The author is impaled on his own imperialist prejudice as he attempts to denigrate Laotian politics:

"The official line from the government is that Laos is a one-party democracy " only members of the Communist Lao People's Revolutionary Party are allowed to contest elections. Fuller is confident that few readers will remember that only capitalists are allowed by the conglomerate media cartel to run for office in the U.S.A., granted the strength of the Empire being so locked in that an exception can be permitted with socialist Senator Bernie Sanders.

The U.S., EU and Japan are hurting while the better ethically and economically organized state banks of China and Vietnam temporarily protect their populations from the next round of imperialist exploitation backed up by the US-NATO United Nations accepted World Army.

Laotians who read of themselves in an unflattering article published by an ungracious to communists New York Times must just be watching with Buddhist equanimity ˜as the world turns.'

Demand public oversight of the dictatorial conglomerate owned media cartel!
