- To The Washington Post
-
- Dear America:
-
- http://www.rense.com/general25/let.htm
- And so it has come to this. Your
once great nation has fallen into madness, an affliction of mass denial
that brings shivers up the spines of millions outside your borders.
Yours is a sick nation. But most of you carry on as though nothing at
all is the matter.
-
- Dark, evil operations run rampant
in the secret corners of your government institutions. An illegally
constituted government pursues war at will anywhere on earth, discussing
nuclear options that become points for cheerful chatter over lunch. Your
military and intelligence agencies employ terrorist tactics around the
globe even as they insist that such tactics are necessary in the fight
against terrorism.
-
- You have become a nation of
monsters, America. Hypocrites. Murderers. Fools.
-
- Your constitution is a shambles
thanks to national security measures resulting from what might well be
U.S.-government-sponsored terrorist attacks in New York City and
Washington D.C., covert provocations designed to justify a malevolent,
poisonous, oil-based military economy.
-
- Never mind that earth-friendly
technology already exists to once and for all end dependence on oil,
coal and nuclear energy from huge, out-of-control utilities and
corporations. You would rather pay through the nose for your insecure
comforts, wouldn't you America ? and make others pay with their
blood.
-
- At the same time, you stand by as
the Israel's secular Zionists, whom you support through the supply of
arms and money -- slaughter untold numbers of innocents in the West
Bank, then blame the Palestinians for bringing the terror upon them
selves. True, there are terrible Arab suicide bombers in Israel's midst.
But are they not driven to madness and desperation by your infernal
support of international terrorist politics?
-
- As I write these words, you
support a nation run by a convicted murderer who with impunity is
carrying out war crimes as cruel and horrendous as those of other
sadistic tyrants in history. And you say, in your utter cynicism, when
will these Palestinians bring this war to an end?
-
- You recklessly wage combat on
other fronts, too. At home, your War on Drugs is a disastrous 30-year
folly -- a gigantic con game designed to benefit lethal cartels, corrupt
politicians and menacing intelligence agencies across the planet.
-
- Meanwhile, military tanker jets
daily spray massive quantities of unknown chemicals into the skies above
your cities without your population's consent, and most of you do not
even have the wherewithal to look up. Those who do and who voice their
outrage hear only a deafening silence from your congress and your
tax-supported health agencies. Some Americans have too active
imaginations, yes? Best treat them with mind-numbing prescription drugs,
and try to forget that the awful side effects number in the
thousands.
-
- Indeed, those who your government
appoints to oversee your safety and security laugh in your faces. With
your government's support, crooked multinationals like Monsanto buy up
the world's water supplies, and take possession of the world's
vegetation through Frankenstein technology already known to cause
illness.
-
- Does the FDA care about any of
this? Hell no. It's long been on the bandwagon to foist genetically
altered food on the Guinea Pigs of the country -- including every man,
woman and child on America's increasingly toxic soil.
-
- You are a nation of suckers,
America, to be bled dry of your hard-earned pay through outrageous bank
schemes, Wall Street rip offs, and fake government budget grabs. Your
Pentagon cannot account for trillions in lost dollars. Does this bother
you? Not in the least.
-
- Your whole economy is controlled
by what is for the most part ravenous, international private banking
interests in the form of The Federal Reserve, which, with your
government's consent, leads you down the garden path to irrecoverable
debt and certain financial ruin.
-
- Is this worth thinking about?
When's the football game on?
-
- These very same money men are the
ones who, through unmonitored and unrepresentative world committees, are
driving countries like Argentina into hopeless debt and social upheaval.
These greedy overlords are creating strife and suffering on a scale too
tragic for words in nation after nation. Just look at Africa.
-
- They've got their sites on
America, now, too; disrupting economic stability through so-called free
trade initiatives and provisions for special favors and the endless flow
of cash to corporate monstrosities like Enron.
-
- For the most part, your
congressional representatives are nothing but swine gathering at the
corporate troughs. Your president is a creep and a thug, a hypocrite who
through his actions celebrates war, repression and greed even as he
gives lip service to peace, freedom and justice.
-
- George W. Bush hoodwinks you
daily, the coward hiding behind a phony patriotism. He is an Enron buddy
boy, a spoiled child lying thru his teeth about his past and
current dirty deeds. Does he care about you America? Hardly. This is
altogether obvious to those outside your borders who are politically
aware and awake to the world around them.
-
- You were never concerned about the
disgraceful practices of George's ruthless father, either, a Bin-Laden
cohort and friend to criminals and killers in global drug, oil and
terrorist enterprises. Iran, Vietnam, El Salvador, Chile, Guatemala,
Iraq. And on and on. The never-ending bully-boy story of blood, guns,
drugs and money.
-
- Does any of this matter? Not
really. Go get your ten-billionth burger America. Fatten your already
fat asses with bacteria-and-hormone-ridden meat and do nothing as you
sit stupefied before your mind-numbing television sets awaiting the next
episode of sad families being humiliated on Cops.
-
- Few among you are the least bit
concerned that no real investigation of 911 has taken place, that no
serious investigation of the anthrax attacks is moving forward, that no
authentic investigation of Enron, or the murder of one of its top
executives, is underway.
-
- How many of you give the slightest
damn about the totalitarian measures your government is taking to keep
its secret meetings, grubby files and treasonous activities from your
eyes? You look the other way as your own honest citizens rise up against
those within your nation who gassed innocent children to death at Wako,
hid evidence in the TWA 800 air disaster and rubbed elbows with foreign
terrorists in Oklahoma City.
-
- When did you stop caring America?
Was it after your own CIA and FBI plotted the murder of President John
F. Kennedy? Or is this just the raving lunacy of the conspiracy nut?
What does your gut tell you America? Is something a little amiss
here?
-
- Forget about it. Have some
Pepto-Bismal.
-
- Today, in futility, your own
government goes to court against itself for information you are entitled
to by law. But this is hardly deemed vital news in the community. It is
a fleeting reference in an electronic sea of meaningless banter. For
proof, just look to all the spineless whores who constitute your
mainstream news media.
-
- Today, you excoriate, ridicule and
ostracize the brave and true among you. Your best investigative
journalists are fired from their jobs and ignored. Congress's few
courageous souls are laughed at and dismissed out of hand. The most
honest and conscientious political leader in the country, Ralph Nader,
is a powerless, near invisible curiosity easily side-lined by hired
goons.
-
- America, you are a goddamn
shame.
-
- What law matters now in your
despicable state? What justice? What truth? When will you wake up? If
you had your druthers, you would right now gather your courage, take to
the streets and march on Washington D.C in the millions. But I know you
will do no such thing. The vast majority of you are spiritually,
emotionally and intellectually dead.
-
- You consume. You eat. You shit.
And that's just about it.
-
- As I write these words in Spring
of 2002, I can only imagine what additional horrors your shadow
government might be planning in what will surely be an attempt to
justify militarism and totalitarianism on a universal scale. A nuclear
explosion in one of your cities perhaps? A massive bio-chemical
attack?
-
- Or perhaps it will be some Arab
terrorist who does the great and terrible deed, his last thought before
death being the promises you made to him before killing his
family.
