Ok. So I saw previously that someone claimed that we did not train Al-Qaeda…that is correct… but we did arm them… just as we did saddam. Just as Rumsfeld sat on the board of directors of a company that actually sold north korea its first nuclear reactor in the 70’s. As far as the CIA and mid-east goes…we DID train the Taliban. Its not connected but does anybody remember the movie Rambo 3. In that movie sylvester stallone as rambo goes to afghanistan to help the taliban fight the russians…so even hollywood had portrayed them as our buddies.
Its the Hegellian Dielectic in full effect. We make the bad guys by selling them the weapons and then years down the road we have this uncontrollable “threat to our freedom” that we need to hurry up and snuff out.
Is it any wonder to anyone how right before the oklahoma city bombing a homeland terrorism bill was trying to be passed through congress…. and amazingly…just in the nick of time….a federal building gets blown up…and the bill passes with flying colors. It should also be noted that it occured on a weekday and for some odd reason a LARGE majority of the federal employees in that building were where…oh…ON VACATION while the daycare center near the building was full of children…hmm?
Is it any wonder to anyone how JFK came to FIRE allen dulles as head of the central intelligence agency after the failed bay of pigs invasion…yet…amazingly…right after the assassination Allen Dulles is on the warren commission as one of the people investigating the assassination…no conflict of interest there whatsoever.
Does it amaze people when stories come out about dead american soldiers in vietnam having their corpses packed with heroin so it can be shipped back to the US….
Does it boggle anybodies minds how we are actually PROTECTING opium growers in afghanistan as I write this…even national geographic in a study had concluded that the output of heroin from afghanistan has more than quadrupled since the war on terror started…OH…and do your research because it was the Taliban that fought opium growers in the past…they were known for being brutal sure.. but they were actually burning opium farms to the ground….doesnt seem that bad to me…but im a veteran so… who listens to veterans anymore…
Would it open your mind to know that one of the most decorated Marine Corps Generals, Smedley Butler, in 1935 claimed that he was approached by a group of industrialists including JP MORGAN, Chase International, Brown Brothers, Prescott Bush, and Du Pont…to lead a group of 500,000 veterans on a coup on washington…but he declined and came forward with the claims… certainly if you research this you will come across an old new york times article claiming it was all bogus and unproven….yet did you know that JP MORGAN pretty much owned the new york times since 1917….so…no conflict of interest there once again…Smedley Butler wrote a book entitled WAR IS A RACKET… I recommend it to anyone reading this post…google it…its online in its entirety and it is short and to the point…. Smedley Butler was a 2 time medal of honor recipient as well… but… hey… who listens to veterans anymore….
