After all, we have our own troubles at home: Most recently Ferguson and Baltimore.
And weighty conundrums: "To Hillary or not to Hillary, that is the question!"
No, there's not much time to worry about all that stuff happening over there, or sufficient calm to think clearly and consider productive alternative plans, with all the hysterical cries of the warmongers relentlessly poisoning the airwaves and opeds, shouting down the few voices of sanity who attempt a balanced, coherent analysis and constructive conversation.
I still have to wonder . . .
In terms
of the few isolated individuals who might actually be paying attention,
yet still go along with this march to madness, and the neocon
psychopaths themselves chasing their self-sabotaging and
bankrupt delusions of world conquest and American imperial rule, WHAT
ARE THEY THINKING?
Didn't we learn anything from Vietnam?
Didn't we learn anything from Afghanistan?
Didn't we learn anything from Iraq?
I never hear a timidly tendered . . . "Oops."
Not a chagrin-tinged . . . "Sorry about that."
Not even a mildly rueful . . . "Hmm."
Evidently reflection and apologies are for girly-boys or the zombies of the liberal class.
Many of our most respected think tanks now appear to be staffed with students of history equipped with no memory and no conscience. You're either with us or you're against us. Either you hate Russia and despise Vlad the Impaler . . . or you're a Putin boot-licker.
Jingoistic
cheer leading driven by testosterone-fueled delusions of empire spews
simplistic black-hat/white-hat bumper stickers. The public swoons in
Orwellian silence.
Russia bad . . . America good . . . Russia bad . . .
What's another 27,000,000 bodies?
