Why and How "The Global War On Terror" Is A Lie

by ron corvus

Unfortunately, most Americans believe in prosecuting the "Global War On Terror." The MSM has beat it into the hearts and minds of Americans non-stop, 24/7/365 since 9/11. Even the most so-called "liberals" believe in prosecuting the "Global War On Terror." Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, John Edwards, Ted Kennedy, John Kerry, etc., all rightfully bash Bush, but snap to attention instantly when anyone charges them: "Do you want to win this 'War On Terror?' Or not? Do you want al Qaeda to win the 'Global War On Terror?'"

Hillary, Obama and Edwards ALL bash Bush and his warmongering self, but gladly and dutifully support the unlawful, unconstitutional Bush Doctrine of pre-emptive strikes and subsequent military occupations. All the Republican candidates and Hillary, Obama and Edwards believe the U.S. government has the exclusive right to execute unprovoked, unilateral military strikes against anyone who the U.S. government deems a "terrorist threat." This is a bi-partisan belief amongst all politicians - but the glue that holds them together are the following lies:

1.) 9/11 was an unprovoked attack on the U.S.

2.) The 9/11 hijackers attacked us because they hate our freedoms, hot dogs, apple pies and Chevrolets;

3.) If we don't attack them over there, we'll have to fight them over here;

It is this virtual "See and Say" of myopic beliefs which drive our nation further into conflict and war profiteering.

I believe it is essential that Americans realize 9/11 was NOT an unprovoked attack, but rather a very much provoked attack. The MSM shouldn't even call it 9/11 anymore; they should call it, "What goes around, comes around." Americans are led to believe the U.S. government's role in 9/11 is as innocent as Snow White - nothing could be further fom the truth.

I believe it is essential for Americans not only to understand why the 9/11 hijackers attacked us on 9/11, but to also understand that the U.S. government does NOT have the right under U.S. or intl' law to execute the Bush Doctrine of pre-emptive strikes and subsequent military occupations.

I believe it is essential for Americans to find out that when the 9/11 Commission asked the FBI why the 9/11 hijackers attacked us, the FBI said the primary motivation was U.S. support of Israel and other repressive regimes; watch this video:

The fact remains: both the Democratic and Republican parties support Israel's 40-yr. long illegal military occupation of Palestinian territories and support illegal U.S. military occupations of Iraq and Afghanistan.

Here's a handy worldwide known fact: as long as our Congress continues to fund and arm Israel, that's how long America will continue to be the target of terrorism; as long as our government continues to militarily occupy Muslim land, that's how long America will continue to be the target of terrorism. It doesn't have a damn thing to do with, "how wonderful and great" America is. The MSM works triple overtime keeping this most pivotal of truths from the American people. The MSM force feeds their skewed perspective (lies) all day every day to the unwashed masses. Unfortunately, too many Americans gulp these lies whole and regurgitate them in the form of political donations and support for the keepers of these un-American, unlawful, unconstitutional policies: the Democratic and Republican parties and their party candidates.

All the Republican candidates and Hillary, Obama and Edwards promise to prosecute the "Global War On Terror" and promise to keep "response teams" worldwide to "respond" to "al Qaeda uprisings." As long as our government continues to support, finance and continue these illegal military actions, that's how long the war profiteers and their front men and women - the Democratic and Republican parties, will continue to grow and grow and grow.

Both political parties and the MSM constantly brainwash the American people into believing Muslims have no right to respond and react to decades of illegal U.S.-Israeli military occupations, murder and mayhem. The MSM want you to believe the victims of U.S.-Israeli imperialism need to keep their Islamic mouths shut - just keep quiet and take it up the wazoo.
