What does it take to overwhelm the better angels of our nature and enter the dark psychosis of malevolence and fear? What possesses human beings to choose the path of lies, thievery, and mass murder, to do things that in normal circumstances would be impossible to contemplate let alone implement. Could it simply be pure unadulterated ambition mixed in with avarice and vanity?
Behind the eyes of a neocon in the position of power is a cold calculating murderer, a new barbarian, and what makes the neocon so effective is that they disguise themselves brilliantly as pious Romans. They project an image of normality, rational thinking individuals who have successfully convinced the masses that their idealism and intellectual mendacity is the true righteous path for national salvation and virtue.
Of course, we have known the true motives of the Bush clan as reported here since boy George took office. Neocon diehards regarded us as a fringe element, un-patriotic shills for the Bush-haters in the liberal establishment. Such sour grapes, what are they to do with all those internet writers who are free from corporate sleaze and report the truth? Their only recourse then and now was to smear the truth seekers and engage in character assassination in a retreating action worthy only of chicken hawks, and if all else fails they use their disingenuous trump card, the often used prevarication of anti-Semitism.
One fundamental aspect in a neocon that ordinary Americans must come to realize is that they hate God, and since they hate God and all His attributes like – God is Truth, they choose to serve the god of forces and illusion. They cannot acknowledge to this simple truth, instead, they present themselves as godly servants who are working for your interests and that of your nation.
From the outset, the Bush clan was engaged in warmongering and pursued a course for the criminal invasion of another sovereign nation. In this criminal conduct, the murder oftens of thousands has taken place. September 11th was the perfect smoke screen for their violent policies for a New American Century. The recent revelation by former treasury secretary Paul O’Neill further revealed to us that when President Bush took office in January 2001 he fully intended to invade Iraq and needed to find an excuse for preemptive war against Saddam Hussein, then the twin towers came down, setting the stage for the neocons, and the delusional war on evil began.
None of this is new to us, one by one, we exposed the lies that the Bush administration perpetrated against the American people concerning their illegitimate war on Iraq.
They lied to us when war profiteer extraordinaire Vice-President Dick Cheney declared on August 26th 2002 – “Simply stated, there is no doubt that Saddam Hussein now has weapons of mass destruction.”
They lied to us when President Bush stated on September 12th 2002 – “Right now, Iraq is expanding and improving facilities that were used for the production of biological weapons.”
They lied to us when Secretary of State Colin Powell stated on February 5th 2003 – “We know that Saddam Hussein is determined to keep his weapons of mass destruction, is determined to make more.”
They lied to us when President George Bush on March 17th 2003 declared – “Intelligence gathered by this and other governments leaves no doubt that the Iraq regime continues to possess and conceal some of the most lethal weapons ever devised.”
They lied to us when Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld on March 30th 2003 revealed that – “We know where they are (WMD). They are in the area around Tikrit and Baghdad.”
They lied to Congress, a criminal act in itself in a long trail of criminality; they made wild erroneous claims to the house of pusillanimous imposters. The Bush administration went to congress and warned palm greased senators of the specter of a fast approaching apocalypse, according to Senator Bill Nelson, the Bush clan claimed that Iraq not only had weapons of mass destruction, but they had the means to deliver them to East Coast cities. The senators lapped up the pretense like the loyal pavlovian lap dogs that they are.
Secretary of State Colin Powell lied to us and to the Security Council when he declared on February 5th 2003 – “Iraq today harbors a deadly terrorist network, headed by Abu Musaab al-Zarqawi, an associate and collaborator of Osama bin Laden and his Al Qaeda lieutenants.” And that a “sinister nexus” existed “between Iraq and the Al Qaeda terrorist network, a nexus that combines classic terrorist organizations and modern methods of murder.” Powel recently admitted that there was no hard evidence linking the two.
They lied to us about Iraqi attempts to acquire “yellowcake” from Niger, and used the yellowcake forgeries as evidence in President Bush’s State of the Union to congress. In attempt to cover up this fabrication which was exposed as such by former ambassador Joseph Wilson, the Bush administration outed a CIA operative in a classic Mafioso hit on Ambassador Joseph Wilson’s wife Valerie Plame, a CIA operative whose function was to run an undercover network to track the proliferation of WMD to terrorist organizations, another criminal act defined under Section 421 of the Intelligence Identities act of 1982. They put at risk all those undercover agents associated with her.
So what, the sullied deed is done right? Why harp on such trivial aspects to the portrait when one needs to see the big picture? The question now for Americans is – do you want to continue to die and kill for nothing other than stale clichés, to lose your sons and daughters for murky intelligence, for contrived threats? Think about it, killing and dying for the economic gain of your elites, for the augmentation of the interests of Israel, for the defense of the mighty dollar, for the resources of oil and strategic positioning against perceived rivals, are you willing to sacrifice your lives for these? Would your founding fathers die for such policies or did they shed their blood against the murderous sophistries of the empire at large.
Iraq is but one piece to the neocon puzzle for world domination or at least domination of the Middle East. Take a trip to PNAC, one of many intellectual mansions for neocons such as Vice President Dick Cheney, along with Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld and former Defense Policy Board chairman Richard Perle. Deputy Defense Secretary Paul Wolfowitz is a member, and a host of other slimy characters like Bill Kristol.
It is all out in the open to see, their megalomania, their determination to create murder and chaos, they do not hide their intentions as far as formulating policy in their think tanks, and the subterfuge only begins when they try to convince Americans to lay down their lives for their portfolios, for the illusion of a greater national good, for a virtual peace and security.
The neocons are far from being finished with only the assets of Iraq liberated; they are screaming for regime change in Syria and Iran, and a Cuba-style military blockade of North Korea backed by planning for a preemptive strike on its nuclear sites. Its all in a new book titled – “An End to Evil: How to Win the War on Terror” penned by the “dark prince” himself – Richard Perle, along with his sidekick and intellectual midget David Frum.
The title of the book reveals much, specifically “An End to Evil” if that was ever a human possibility for such an event outside the power of God. These pernicious jokers, clowns of the big stage do not know what evil looks like; if they did, they would recognize themselves as instruments to the forces of iniquity. Reminds me of the axiom – men never do more evil then when they believe that they are doing the greater good.
The Barbarians are within the gates, cleverly disguised as Romans. They have become the keepers of boy George’s sandbox, they are running the asylum, and have extended their intrigue and hypocrisy to the point of mass murder and have permanently defiled the last remnants of a once great republic.
