The Leftwing
Has Placed Itself In The Trash Can Of History

- At a time when the Western world desperately needs
alternative voices to the neoliberals, the
neoconservatives, the presstitutes and the Trump de-regulationists,
there are none. The Western leftwing has gone insane.
The voices
being raised against Trump, who does need voices raised
against him, are so hypocritical as to reflect less on
Trump than on those with raised voices.
Sharon Kelly
McBride, speaking for Human Rights First, sent
me an email saying that Trump stands on the wrong side
of “America’s ideals” by his prohibition of Muslim
immigrants into the US.
My question to
McBride is: Where were you and Human Rights First
when the Bush/Cheney/Obama regime was murdering,
maiming, orphaning, widowing, and displacing millions of
Muslims in seven countries over the course of 4
presidential terms?
Why is it OK to
slaughter millions of peoples, destroy their homes and
villages, wreck their cities as long as it is not Donald
Trump who is doing it?
Where does
Human Rights First get off. Just another fake
website, or is McBride seizing the opportunity to
prostitute Human Rights First in hopes of
donations from the DNC, the Soros’ NGOs, the Isreal
Lobby, and the ruling One Percent?
Money speaks,
and alternative voices need money in order to speak. As
so many Americans are indifferent to the quality of
information that they get, many alternative voices are
thrown back to relying on whatever money is available.
Generally, it is the money of disinformation, of
information that controls the explanations in ways that
favor and enhance the ruling oligarchy.
Is this the
position in which McBride has placed Human Rights
First?
Turn now to
Truthout. This website says that Trump is demonizing
Muslims by denying them immigration into the US. Where
has Truthout been for the past 16 years? Did Truthout
not notice that the George W. Bush regime said “We have
to kill them (Muslims) over there before they (Muslims)
come over here.”
Did Truthout
not notice that Obama continued the policy of “killing
them (Muslims) over there”?
How insane, how
corrupt, does Truthout have to be to say that it is
Trump who is demonizing Muslims?
Trump has not
said that he wants to “kill them over there.” He has
said that if the masses of peoples we have dislocated
and whose families we have murdered want to come here,
they might wish to exact revenge. Having made Muslims
our enemies, it makes no sense to admit vast numbers of
them.
According to
Bush and Obama, we are supposed “to kill them over
there,” not bring them “over here” where they can kill
us as a payback for the murder machine we have run
against them.
This is common
sense. Yet, the deranged left says it is “racism.”
What happens to
a country when the alternative voice is even more stupid
and corrupt than the government’s voice?
