"Theater of the absurd: the US is intent upon using nuclear weapons as a means of self defense against Al Qaeda and ISIS under the Administration's counter-terrorism initative:
And the United States is part of an international campaign against violent extremist organizations groups 'seeking to destroy our democratic way of life.'
To effectively keep adversaries and potential adversaries in check, America must maintain 'a safe, secure, effective and ready nuclear deterrent.'
Lest we forget, Al Qaeda was created by the CIA and the ISIS is supported and funded by two of America's staunchest allies: Turkey and Saudi Arabia."
In fact, the entire "War On Terror" constitutes the "Theater of the Absurd", since it is well- documented that the stated enemies of the "West" (ie al Qaeda/al Nusra Front, ISIS, and all the terrorists invading Syria) are supported by the West, the Gulf Monarchies, NATO, and Israel.
Instead of building a consensus for war, and first-strike nuclear attacks, we need to build a consensus for truth, justice, and peace.
As a first step, we would do well to boycott toxic mainstream media (MSM) messaging, which favours lies, injustice, and war.
