Should the Neocon War Machine be Allowed to Keep Blood-Stained Profits? Email Print

We stand at the fifth anniversary of the 9/11 tragedies. No solid answers have been provided.  An unconvincing cover-up has been presented, and only under great public duress.  

It is time to assess what really happened on 9/11 and conceive of creative strategies to dig the truth from out of the dusty caverns to which a thoroughly unprincipled unelected government has buried it.

In that the law has been creatively used in a class action lawsuit regarding 9/11 on behalf of deceased victims' family members, another lawsuit that should be promptly filed in federal court is one pertaining to the unconscionable, blood-stained profits that neoconservative warmongers representing America's invisible and unelected government have realized over the corpses and shattered bodies of service personnel and civilians in the Middle East.

The class action lawsuit alluded to earlier creatively employs the RICO statute in an attempt to demand the truth about the causes of the World Trade Center calamities as well as the repercussions that followed.

The Cheney-Bush No Fault Dictatorship Email Print

Last week in Charlotte, North Carolina those Americans paying attention and not hypnotized into robot status through Fox News saw another illustration that Karl Rove is far from the genius nonpareil that a subservient corporate media depicts.  

Concerned about his sharply dropping poll numbers, Rove decided to actually turn his puppet, the faux Texas cowboy, loose on a wide audience without the normally careful screening process that prevailed as established operational policy.

The result at a town meeting at Central Piedmont Community College was something that Rove should have anticipated.  Harry Taylor, a real estate broker, was someone who did not get the Fox message.  He stepped before a microphone and told the emperor to his face that he was devoid of clothes.  

Taylor revealed his shame over Washington leadership in the wake of preventive detention, the right to arrest and hold a citizen without even preferring charges indefinitely, along with the emperor's right to tap telephones without so much as a hint of a warrant issued by a magistrate.

Anti-Bush Campaign Growing Email Print

While U.S. service personnel are fighting and dying in Iraq, just as they did in Vietnam.  Anti-war activists seek to confront White House resident George Bush to ask a simple question, "Why did the United States go to war in Iraq, and why are they still there?"

Of course, that is the burning question that also should be asked in the most appropriate place, in The Hague before a panel of judges who can determine if the Iraqis and U.S. service personnel who died, and the thousands wounded, met their tragic fate because of a fraudulent war.  Did this debacle take place because U.S. intelligence made the tragic mistake of not wanting to share information that might have prevented 9/11, and even the rush to the Iraq War?

These are legitimate questions that must be answered by an unbiased international court in The Hague, where the Geneva Convention war guidelines if followed can prevent corrupt politicians or barbaric madmen from going to war without any legitimate reason.

Remember how Republicans and Democrats were so confident when the bombs began falling over Iraq?  This administration and its robotic Democratic followers triumphantly proclaimed they were out to save the world, spreading democracy first over the Middle East with ceaseless bombings, destruction and death.  The lies spewed out by the one-sided media contributed to this nightmare scenario.

Fertilizing Fraud: Contractor Oversight Reduced When Needed Most Email Print

Iraq has proven itself a breeding ground for fraud.  It's no shocker, given our nation's history of private-contractor dealings.

Despite this, the federal government withdrew auditors that were monitoring Iraq-contracts last year.  And it just became news this month.
