General Douglas MacArthur

“Our government has kept us in a perpetual state of fear — kept us in a continuous stampede of patriotic fervor — with the cry of grave national emergency.  Always there has been some terrible evil at home or some monstrous foreign power that was going to gobble us up if we did not blindly rally behind it.”   — Douglas MacArthur

Not a great fan of Gen. Douglas McArthur, despite his tremendously successful personal, family and US Army professional PR and image program;  but he was right in describing  one important aspect of American government, and he has to be honored for telling the truth the way he saw it!

We live in a world of almost infinite possibilities (which outnumber by far the more limited actual probabilities), and when you get involved in the permutations of politics with all of its Byzantine entanglements, issues, motives arcane objectives and hidden agenda, it becomes all the more complex and incomprehensible and one can construct almost any scenario he likes, and probably peddle it successfully to a large and believing audience.

The sabre rattling over an attack on Iran, is following the identical game-plan that was mounted before the 2003 attack on Iraq.

Escalating ever-harsher economic sanctions or worse — threatening military attack on Iran for “alleged” nuclear weapons program — when an even smaller country in the Middle East, hardly as poor or important, however, who has a known armory of nuclear weapons, proven delivery systems, and has already killed hundreds and thousands of its neighbors and stolen their lands, is not a threat to peace whatsoever?

The solution to tensions over Iran’s nuclear program should be establishing a Nuclear Weapons-Free Zone in the Middle East.

The key question facing America now is whether it will once again allow itself to be hoodwinked and lied into another war.

Mike Rivero, of Whatreallyhappened.com, explains the so called “Iran nuclear threat” in this brilliant video:
