With the staged age of Information
Technology, people have become lazy and want to be spoon-fed - just as was
predicted.Therefore it is an easy accomplishment to spoon-feed us with
lies.

I am a firm believer in the people. If

which transcend the national obligations of obedience ... Therefore [individual

" ... the United States, for
generations, has sustained two parallel but opposed states of mind about
military atrocities and human rights: one of U.S. benevolence, generally held by
the public, and the other of ends-justify-the-means brutality sponsored by
counterinsurgency specialists. Normally the specialists carry out their actions
in remote locations with little notice in the national press. That allows the
public to sustain its faith in a just America, while hard-nosed security and
economic interests are still protected in secret. ": Robert Parry, investigative reporter and author

"The essence of oligarchical rule is not
father-to-son inheritance, but the persistence of a certain world-view and a
certain way of life ... A ruling group is a ruling group so long as it can
nominate its successors... Who wields power is not important, provided that the
hierarchical structure remains always the same.": George Orwell, 1984

"Our rulers make the news, but they do
not appear in the news, not as they really are-not as a political class, a
governing establishment, a body of leaders with great and pervasive powers, with
deep, often dark, ambitions. In the American republic the fact of oligarchy is
the most dreaded knowledge of all, and our news keeps that knowledge from us. By
their subjugation of the press, the political powers in America have conferred
on themselves the greatest of political blessings-Gyges' ring of invisibility.
And they have left the American people more deeply baffled by their own
country's politics than any people on earth. Our public realm lies steeped in
twilight, and we call that twilight news." : Walter Karp

The first step in a fascist movement is
the combination under an energetic leader of a number of men who possess more
than the average share of leisure, brutality, and stupidity. The next step is to
fascinate fools and muzzle the intelligent, by emotional excitement on the one
hand and terrorism on the other. (Bertrand Russell: Freedom, Harcourt Brace, 1940)

Now those who seek absolute power, even
though they seek it to do what they regard as good, are simply demanding the
right to enforce their own version of heaven on earth, and let me remind you
they are the very ones who always create the most hellish tyranny: Barry Goldwater

You see what power is -- holding someone

They have always taught and trained you
to believe it to be your patriotic duty to go to war and to have yourselves
slaughtered at their command. But in all the history of the world you, the
people, have never had a voice in declaring war, and strange as it certainly
appears, no war by any nation in any age has ever been declared by the people:

“I know that most men, including those at ease with problems of the greatest
complexity, can seldom accept even the simplest and most obvious truth if it
would oblige them to admit the falsity of conclusions which they have delighted

woven, thread by thread, into the fabric of their lives.” Leo Tolstoy

"That the aggressor, who puts himself
into the state of war with another, and unjustly invades another man's right,
can, by such an unjust war, never come to have a right over the conquered, will
be easily agreed by all men, who will not think that robbers and pirates hhave a
right of empire over whomsoever they have force enough to master, or that men
are bound by promises which unlawful force extorts from them.
Should a robber break into my house, and, with a dagger at my throat, make me
seal deeds to convey my estate to him, would this give him any title? Just such
a title by his sword has an unjust conqueror who forces me into submission. The
injury and the crime is equal, whether committed by the wearer of a crown or
some petty villain.
The title of the offender and the number of his followers make no difference in
the offence, unless it be to aggravate it. The only difference is, great robbers
punish little ones to keep them in their obedience; but the great ones are
rewarded with laurels and triumphs, because they are too big for the weak hands
of justice in this world, and have the power in their own possession which
should punish offenders." John Locke - 1632-1704

"...And while everybody was tremendously
impressed with the low cost of the conflict, for the 146 Americans who were
killed in action and for their families, it wasn't a cheap war. And the question
in my mind is how many additional American casualties is Saddam worth? And the
answer is not very damned many." [Secretary of Defense Dick Cheney, remarks to the Discovery Institute,
8/14/1992]

Where justice is denied, where poverty
is enforced, where ignorance prevails, and where any one class is made to feel
that society is an organized conspiracy to oppress, rob and degrade them,
neither persons nor property will be safe.
Frederick Douglass

The care of human life and happiness,

Naturally, the common people don't want
war ... but after all it is the leaders of a country who determine the policy,
and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a
democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist
dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding
of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is to tell them they are being
attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the
country to danger. It works the same in every country. Hermann Goering
*
Allow the President to invade a
neighboring nation, whenever he shall deem it necessary to repel an invasion,
and you allow him to do so, whenever he may choose to say he deems it necessary
for such a purpose -- and you allow him to make war at pleasure. If today, he
should choose to say he thinks it necessary to invade Canada, to prevent the
British from invading us, how could you stop him? You may say to him, 'I see no
probability of the British invading us' but he will say to you, 'Be silent; I
see it, if you don't.'" Abraham Lincoln.
