2012-05-25 - America's Plutocratic House of Representatives Continue to Vote for MORE WAR!

Mehrdad S.: That Was Now, This is Then: Another Pro-War Resolution Hits the House Floor:

Rayn: These ultra-wealthy, immoral, vampire-mummies are BLATANTLY trying to fast-track THEIR WAR, before the American people catch on to their latest lies!

Betsy H.: All the protesting more than likely will never persuade the men and women to listen to the people here until the day comes when peace is more profitable than their war plans. Achieving that goal is still the dream of many here, including me, finding peaceful ways to get their attention while they play us for their votes is the challenge.

Beatris S.: INSANE.

Mehdrad S.: Thanks so much Rayn for your support.

Mehdrad S.: Many thanks Betsy for your very correct diagnosis of this fatal illness. When a democracy is turned into a corporatocracy, with the Military-Industrial-Congressional Complex at its core (assisted by a “consent- manufacturing” media), decisions -even by the peoples’ representatives!- to instigate wars of aggression should come as no surprise. As you rightly mentioned, such a war is more profitable to THEM than peace. They represent the said Complex rather than the people.

A Fascist Police State…

As I scrolled through my Facebook news feed, I discovered the following artwork here, being shared by the page, “Judge Andrew Napolitano,” and originally posted it to my own wall, along with commentary…

"Freedom is almost perfected... Just a few more laws, regulations & cages"

“Freedom is almost perfected…
Just a few more laws, regulations & cages”

My Commentary: Good. I was starting to worry that America was becoming a fascist police state.

Similarities Between the “War on Terrorism” and “War on Drugs”

As I scrolled through my Facebook news feed, I discovered the following artwork here, being shared by the page, “Antiwar.com,” and originally posted it to my own wall…

"War on Terror (Freeze or I'll shoot!) - Invade poor countries to get terrorists - Destroy homes, confiscate property and jail families of terror suspects - Accidentally kill & imprison thousands of innocent people - Ignore underlying causes of terror - Waste billions of dollars - Experience failure _______________________ War on Drugs (Freeze or I'll shoot) - Invade poor neighborhoods to get drug dealers - Destroy homes, confiscate property and jail families of drug suspects - Accidentally kill & imprison thousands of innocent people - Ignore underlying causes of drug use - Waste billions of dollars - Experience failure"

“War on Terror (Freeze or I’ll shoot!)
– Invade poor countries to get terrorists
– Destroy homes, confiscate property and jail families of terror suspects
– Accidentally kill & imprison thousands of innocent people
– Ignore underlying causes of terror
– Waste billions of dollars
– Experience failure

War on Drugs (Freeze or I’ll shoot)
– Invade poor neighborhoods to get drug dealers
– Destroy homes, confiscate property and jail families of drug suspects
– Accidentally kill & imprison thousands of innocent people
– Ignore underlying causes of drug use

– Experience failure”

My Commentary: Some major similarities between the fallacious “War on Terror” and “War on Drugs.”

Another Empire, Another Food Monopoly…

As I scrolled through my Facebook news feed, I discovered the following illustration here, being shared by the page, “Expanded Consciousness,” and originally posted it to my own wall, along with commentary…

"A CENTURY AGO: In 1903, commercial seed houses offered hundreds of varietes as shown in this sampling of ten crops. 80 YEARS LATER: By 1983, few of those varieties were found in the National Seed Storage Laboratory*."

“A CENTURY AGO: In 1903, commercial seed houses offered hundreds of varietes as shown in this sampling of ten crops. 80 YEARS LATER: By 1983, few of those varieties were found in the National Seed Storage Laboratory*.”

My Commentary: Another empire, another food monopoly – Ancient Egypt, Ancient Greece, the British Empire… Wake up, and smell the fascism!

“What About The Hundreds Of Innocent People WE Are Killing With OUR Drone Strikes In Pakistan, and in Yemen, and Somalia!?”
