Even though U.S. citizens are propagandized
to believe in the infallibility of their country, it is still possible
that the light of reason and truth is beginning to seep through the
cracks in the walls of secrecy. The present-day wars are becoming less
and less supported by the people, for whatever reason, and we might
finally begin to ask ourselves how much longer they will put up with
the megalomania of the administration and the outrageous corruption
of the members of Congress without which the war machine would have
come to a halt a long time ago. And it may never have taken on its present
proportions at all if it had not been for the powerful lobbies of the
arms industry.
Many Europeans were deluded into believing
that President Obama was going to change the fundamental position of
the United States in the world, as were of course most of the U.S. citizens
who voted for him. However, all we are seeing is the same unilateralism
and the same imperial agenda as under the previous administration.
