Usually foreign
analysts of the American political scene are
either sycophantic or just annoying, but no one
would dare say that about Aussie observer
Caitlin Johnstone, whose punk rock style of
cutting to the chase is as refreshing as it can
be shocking (I am not a fan of the strong
language, but I get it). Since President Trump's
"fire and fury" explosion yesterday Americans
have to an unsettling degree once again rallied
'round the (false) flag of war propaganda. Today
Ms. Johnstone provided a much-needed slap in the
face to the mind-numbed masses once again
clamoring for US bombs on a country they
could not find on a map
if their lives depended on it.
As even many soi-disant libertarians
reverted back to playing war commander on their
keyboards -- "I'm all for a non-interventionist
foreign policy, but THIS GUY'S GONNA KILL US!!!"
-- Johnstone reminded anyone with half a brain
of one eternal truth: Governments and their
house servants (the mainstream media, neocons,
deep state, etc) are murderous liars and the
only way they dare flush a few hundred billion
dollars -- and oceans of blood -- down the
toilet of war is to first lie their brains out
to the people they are confident will swallow
the poison pills and call them candy.
Of course the United States government and its
minions are lying about North Korea, Johnstone
reminds us. They ALWAYS lie!
She writes:
The United States power establishment has an
extensive history of using lies, false flags
and propaganda to manipulate its hundreds of
millions of citizens into supporting
needless military interventionism. From the Gulf
of Tonkin incident to
the false
Nayirah testimony to
the amazing
network of lies spun
about Saddam Hussein to the 'humanitarian'
intervention in Libya to
the unconscionable Bana
Alabed psy-op in
Syria, there is no depth to which the US war
machine will not stoop in deceiving the
public about the need to unload the
military-industrial complex’s expensive
inventory onto some third world country
overseas, no limit to the evils that
America’s unelected power establishment will
commit in order to secure geopolitical
dominance, and no end to the mass media
propaganda machine’s willingness to report
war propaganda as objective fact.
It is quite literally impossible to be too
paranoid about these people. If you had an
acquaintance who was a known compulsive liar
with an extensive history of duping people
into fighting one another for his own
sociopathic amusement, how would you react
if he handed you a gun and told you that
your neighbor is getting ready to attack
you?
This
might prove shocking even to some "libertarians"
caught up in the frenzy of manufactured threats.
But the US government lies. They lie day and
night. All the time about everything.
Johnstone concludes:
There
is one government in the mix here that has
proven itself completely sociopathic and
untrustworthy in such matters, and it ain’t
the DPRK. Stay skeptical, stay watchful, and
stay woke.
"Oh
no," people squeal! "THIS time they're telling
the truth!"
Good luck with that. Blood's on your hands, not
ours.
