These two headlines neatly demonstrate how the war machine ensures the perpetuation of its own profits by placing itself at the very center of the Federal government;
Feinstein: Obama Should Approve McChrystal’s Recommendations
War brings business to Feinstein spouse
Blum’s firms win multimillion-dollar defense contracts in Iraq, Afghanistan
First off George, it’s 60,000, not 40,000, this time around. All of the faux outrage and for-public-consumption harrumphing about “insubordination” (and Obama’s timely receipt of the Arms Dealers’ “Peace Prize”) is blatant window-dressing to cover up the fact that the Proconsul now has the right to destroy the lives of millions on solely his own say-so, enabled by the wicked warmongering Senator Feinstein, whose nest will be ever so much more feathered by this.
General Smedley Butler must be banging his head against a wall somewhere regarding this carnival of murder and mayhem, and how the war racket has finally gone completely out in the open.
Secondly, where is the outrage? Where are the protests? Why, when I click on the link to the second story, do I see a link for photos of military aircraft maneuvers from “Fleet Week”?
Why was there a massive protest by gays in DC this weekend - not of the murderous warmongering of Feinstein, Pelosi, Reid, Obama, et al, but instead (what was depicted in the media as) a festival of pathetic bleating to please allow more gays and lesbians to please be allowed to please be cogs in the sinister war machine (with same-sex government bennies)?
