It appears that hell has
finally frozen over. The extent of the US government's illegal conduct--its
lying, scheming, cheating, torture, murder, sexual escapades, and covering up
of criminal activities--is finally surfacing and it is breaking through the
once calm, sleepy, uninformed U.S. like the tip of an iceberg from hell.
Americans all over the country are now wondering when and how the government
of the United States became the very thing that the Founding Fathers loathed
and despised: a malignant government that is brutal, feared, drunk with power,
secretive, completely unaccountable, negligent and dishonest to the hilt.
We have been heading in this direction since 1913, but under the leadership
of the current decider and his family and co-conspirators, we, the Citizens of
the United States now find ourselves plunged into a draconian form of
government reminiscent of the Dark Ages.
Had we not been lulled asleep, lied to, misinformed and uninformed by the
news media for so long, we might have been able to fix things with less
drastic measures than are now called for. At this time, however, we find
ourselves facing a government made up of individuals involved in so many
criminal acts and scandals, our situation is unprecedented in the history of
the United States. A massive overhaul is in order. It is time to return to our
roots and reestablish the great Republic this nation was founded as and meant
to be.
No longer able to hide behind their historically owned media
propaganda machines because the Internet has rendered canned, fake and
non-news worthless, those occupying important government seats of trust now
stand starkly before us as never before in a horrifying line-up of suspects
wanted for every type of crime known. Their offenses and crimes are all
impeachable, running the full gamut as described in the Constitution:
"treason, bribery, high crimes and
misdemeanors."
First and foremost, the majority of all federal officials now standing before
us have failed to uphold their Oath of Office--the oath in which they swore to
defend and uphold the Constitution of the United States.
Although this Oath of Office is apparently treated as a joke by most who take
it, in reality there is nothing of greater importance for public servants,
because it is that Oath which>protects the people the oath-takers serve. It
does this by protecting the Constitution, the supreme law of the land.
Instead, the majority of Congress, the entire Bush administration as well as
unknown members of the judicial branch have created or upheld laws that are in
clear violation of the Constitution. One of the most recent examples of this
is the Military Commissions Act (MCA), an unconstitutional law that, among
other things, strikes down the habeas corpus for some individuals. Habeas
Corpus has served for many centuries as the "fundamental instrument for
safeguarding individual freedom against arbitrary and lawless state action."
It predates the Magna Carta of 1215.
(1) Many others are also standing before us in
this line-up for charges of bribery and extortion and for taking kickbacks and
expecting such perks because they are office holders. Still others in this
rogues gallery stand before us as sexual predators of minor children, daring
to use their federal offices and federal titles as a means of finding new
victims, or covering up the vulgarities of other office holders.
Chillingly, others stand before us as conspirators of murder, caught on camera
speaking lies for the purpose of causing unnecessary and unjust wars in which
countless innocent civilians, including infants and children, have died
terrible deaths or have been forever maimed. Hiring people to murder others is
known as homicide in the United States.
With the help of the Internet, we have been able to watch again and again
videos that caught forever the lies that fomented war--the chants of "terror,"
and "terrorists," and "threat," and "madman," and "weapons of mass
destruction." Many of us have also seen the documentaries indicating it was
controlled demolition that caused the buildings of September 11 to collapse
into their footprints. Those with stomachs to bear looking at even more have
seen the subsequent vicious attacks on innocent civilians carried out on
foreign soils by order of the armchair warriors in D.C.
While the top government officials have continued to chant their words
of terror calling for an unending war in order to strike down the unknown and
unnamed, they have still not explained to us how they allowed the atrocity of
September 11 to happen to America in the first place. Did they have
foreknowledge of the planned attack (as it now appears), or was this criminal
negligence and incompetence at its worst--or was it a combination of all?
When the ten-person 9/11 Commission finally began its investigation 441 days
after the attacks occurred, it was discovered by the families of the victims
that the two leaders of the Commission had close, personal ties to the Bush
administration. They refused to step down, however. The White House permitted
only those two leading members to see pertinent documents, and refused access
to the other eight Commission members.
Senator Max Cleland, a former member of the
Commission who was denied access to the documents, stated in the 9/ll Press
for Truth documentary, "the president has said only a minority of the
Commission can see a minority of the documents, and then they have to clear
what they are going to say to the rest of the Commission with the White
House."
(2) According to a 2004 Democracy Now interview,
after the White House set the conditions for the examination of documents,
Cleland said, "If this decision stands, I, as a member of the commission,
cannot look any American in the eye, especially family members of victims, and
say the commission had full access. This investigation is now compromised." In
the Press for Truth documentary, Cleland summarized his opinion,
stating, "It's a scam. It's absolutely disgusting."
Cleland stepped down from the Commission.
(3) Further hampering the investigation and
adding arrogance to the great wall of silence, Bush and Cheney refused to
testify under oath before the Commission. According to CNN, they "answered
questions" behind closed doors in an unrecorded session where no stenographer
was allowed to be present. No transcript was provided for the family members
who had fought so hard to have an investigation made.
(4) In July, 2004, the Commission published its
final report, "The National Commission on Terrorist Acts Upon the United
States." According to the Press for Truth documentary, family members stated
they were hopeful that the final report would contain answers they sought,
despite the impediments and roadblocks created by the White House.
As shown in the documentary, accolades for the published report on terrorism
were given by Representative Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (Florida, Republican), who
stated the Report was "truly bipartisan," as though party affiliation were of
any significance whatsoever in a matter as profoundly important as the
investigation of the terrorist murders of 3,000 people. This should have
been an independent criminal investigation of the highest order, carried out
by those who are masters in the field of criminal investigation. Murder was
committed on 9/11, and when murders are committed, homicide investigations
generally follow. Five years later, we are still waiting for an impartial,
professional investigation.
Rep. Ros-Lehtinen further praised the terrorist
report, stating that it honored those who died as well as their grieving
family members. Judging from the now-weeping and angry family members,
however, the report did nothing of the kind.
Praise was also given by former Florida Secretary of State, Katherine Harris,
who said, "this may be one of the most important publications of our age." The
president also praised the Report saying, "The Commission members have worked
hard and served our country well" For those who quite literally got away with
murder, both statements seem accurate.
The diluted and unsatisfying 9/11 Commission Report predictably was able to
answer little and it gave us little in the way of new information. On page
428, the following question can be found, revealing a lack of investigative
sophistication: "At several points in our inquiry we asked, 'Who is
responsible for defending us at home?'" And then, incredibly, we are told, "We
found that NORAD, which had been given the responsibility for defending U.S.
air space, had construed that mission to focus on threats coming from outside
America's borders." If this is meant to infer that those occupying important
seats in the U.S. government are innocently unaware of terrorists living in
America, and are innocently unaware of terrorist activities being directed
from within the U.S. borders, it is completely, demonstrably and patently
false.
One family member stated in the documentary that only approximately 30
percent of their questions were addressed. On page 172 of the Commission
Report, the following statement is made, further reflecting the lack of
competency or seriousness in this investigation: "To date, the U.S.
government has not been able to determine the origin of the money used for the
9/11 attacks.
Ultimately, the question is of little practical
significance." It is difficult to ascertain when, exactly, this all
started--when public servants began acting like emperors and dictators above
and beyond all law, and when we as a nation of sovereign Citizens collectively
fell into the strange, obedient, slumber of zombies--when we began acting like
serfs and chattel for the dictators. When did we roll over and decide to let
"the government" run and ruin our lives without questioning that government?
It appears to have had its official, illegal and illegitimate birth in 1913.
By that time "corporate personhood" had already been established as a
result of the Constitution being further subverted for corporate interests.
With corporate personhood, Constitutional rights that were meant for human
beings were given to corporations. There is something about
corporations, though. Regardless of how many human rights they might claim for
themselves, they remain in fact lifeless devoid of all feelings, and they are
mindless except in their desire for profit and gains. They never, ever develop
a conscience, although those devoting themselves to corporation frequently
lose theirs.
Two life altering events happened in 1913. Early in the year, the
alleged ratification of Amendment XVI was announced in which Congress gave
itself the power to tax citizens in a manner that directly violated the
Constitution. In December of that year, Congress and President
Woodrow Wilson, in further violation of the Constitution and without a
required Constitutional Amendment, established The Federal Reserve. This
turned important powers to coin and regulate money over to private bankers.
The private bankers then referred to themselves by the misleading title of the
"Federal" Reserve. On Christmas Eve, front page headlines screamed,
"Wilson Sees Dawn of New Era in Business." Indeed.
(5) In 1916, Woodrow Wilson campaigned for
reelection under the slogan "he kept us out of war," and he won reelection.
Five months later, in April of 1917, Wilson asked Congress for a declaration
of war against Germany. This was granted and the US entered the First World
War.
(6) One of the most highly decorated Marines in US
history, Major General Smedley Butler, wrote a book that was first published
in 1935 called, War Is a Racket. The subject of his book was the
First World War, and according to his book the war racket is one in which
"profits are reckoned in dollars and the losses in lives at least 21,000 new
millionaires and billionaires were made in the United States during the World
War." The du Ponts alone, General Butler stated, had "an increase in
profits of more than 950 percent" during the war years. Nickel manufacturers
had increases of more than 1,700 percent; and coal companies had increases of
7,856 per cent. In fact, all of the industries General Butler looked into were
ladling in for themselves the cream of substantial profits. The bankers who
financed the war, however, had the largest ladles of all. "Being partnerships
rather than incorporated organizations," Butler wrote, "they do not have to
report to stockholders. And their profits were as secret as they were immense.
How the bankers made their millions and their billions I do not know, because
those little secrets never became public--even before a Senate investigatory
body."
(7) With corporations having more importance
than human life and health in the United States, and with the corporations
engorged with profits earned at the cost of human life and health, the stage
was set for something new to begin happening in the United States, and happen
it did, just like night follows day--just like the expected cycles of summer,
fall, winter and spring.
Since the First World War, a major war has been
arranged for us to lose our lives in approximately every 20 years or so,
always occurring after a major, staged event that results in the preliminary
loss of innocent lives. This has historically proven to cause the masses to
experience outrage, grief, fear and a sense of togetherness or patriotism--all
of which have been traditionally necessary in order to turn us into willing
military combatants.
The first catalyzing event was the Lusitania, then came Pearl Harbor, followed
by the assassination of President Kennedy and the Gulf of Tonkin lies, and now
it appears we have the "new Pearl Harbor," as predicted by the Project for a
New American Century, PNAC. The "new Pearl Harbor" has so far led to a
profitable "war on terror" that brought the US first to war in Afghanistan,
and then on to Iraq, with no end currently in sight. Engorged again in another
corporate feeding frenzy, the lifeless doll's eyes of this feeding machine are
now possibly looking to engorge itself further with Iran.
The Bush regime's "war on terror" appears to be changing the modus operandi
slightly. Apparently, those in charge of this profit-making war machine have
now decided to do away with the 20-year pauses originally granted to those
actually doing the fighting and doing the dying for corporate profit. Perhaps
they have decided they are losing too much money with the old plan that
skipped every other generation. The new and improved war plan appears
to be intent on waging a permanent war against a select few whose names we
might not even know, whose hiding places are not known, and whose actual
threat to us is also not really known--or is even completely invented. This
new plan will allow corporate and banking America to make long, drawn out,
endless profits.
The plan is working well so far, at least for those carrying the cream ladles
rather than the rifles. According to a 2004 report on Bloomberg, "U.S.
corporate profits surged 87 percent from the third quarter of 2001 to the end
of 2003." They based these figures upon Commerce Department records.
(8) But while the United States is now at
war with "terrorists," and our task at hand is to apparently rid the world of
terrorists, many U.S. Citizens are now falling under the category of being a
"terrorist" themselves simply because we are sensing that something is
suspiciously not right with the Bush administration and we are speaking out
about it, as we are expected to do under the Constitution. The "patriot act,"
another illegal and unconstitutional law, demands that we obediently obey, and
never question government. This violates the very soul of America.
What exactly does the Bush administration consider to be a terrorist? Are
terrorists pacifists such as myself, who have never held or fired a gun in
their lives, but who have a few select words to say about the mess the Bush
family has orchestrated? Are terrorists newsmen such as Keith Olbermann who
are daring to speak out against the policies of the Bush administration?
Is this "war" Bush keeps reminding us of actually against terrorists, or is it
a war against the civil liberties and human rights of people in this country
and everywhere else?
How can one explain, for instance, the strange case of Dr. Orlando Bosch, a
Cuban exile and pediatrician living in Miami? He is an elderly man at this
time, but I wish to ask why the Republican Party has so strongly defended--and
released from custody-- this man who is a convicted terrorist with ties to
fascists.
Dr. Bosch's alleged curriculum vitae includes the terrorist activities listed
below, as can be found on
Independence.net, "Granma" (Cuban newspaper), the NY Transfer News, and
other sources. Although this list begins with the year 1968, earlier, Bosch
was also questioned about being in Dealey Plaza when John Kennedy was
assassinated. Some investigators feel that photos and stills show Bosch seated
on the grass in Dealey Plaza (possibly speaking into a radio) next to
"umbrella man."

According to
Independence.net, "By the start of the 1980s, the Cuban American National
Foundation (CANF) was in existence, and its leader, Jorge Mas Canosa, directed
counterrevolutionary and terrorist attacks."
In 1988, Bosch returned to the United States where
he was arrested for having violated his parole for the bazooka incident. He
then requested political asylum.
It would seem from the list of activities that this man might, in fact, under
most reasonable definitions of the term, be a bona fide "terrorist" (Ret.
perhaps). Joe D. Whitley, Acting Associate Attorney General at the time Bosch
requested political asylum, reviewed the request and ordered him deported,
writing, "For 30 years, Bosch has been resolute and unwavering in his advocacy
of terrorist violence." Attorney General Dick Thornburgh referred to Bosch as
an "unreformed terrorist."
(10) At the same time that those in the Attorney General's office were stating their opinions of Bosch, Cuban-born Ileana Ros-Lehtinen was campaigning in Florida for her position in the House of Representatives. It would be from her position and capacity as a Representative in Congress that she would one day give the accolades listed above for the 9/11 Commission Report, "The National Commission on Terrorist Acts Upon the United States."
Ros-Lehtinen did not share the opinions of the
Attorneys General concerning Orlando Bosch. Ros-Lehtinen, in fact, began a
vigorous campaign to have Bosch freed. Her campaign chairman during this time,
according to the New Yorker and numerous other sources, was a real estate
developer named Jeb Bush. Jeb's father was the president of the U.S., (Bush
Number One). Bosch was not deported. Instead, in 1990, President George
Herbert Walker Bush ordered Bosch to be
released.
(11) According to a 2006 article in Counter Punch,
"Few people in this country know that Orlando Bosch was released from
immigration custody by President George Bush Sr. in 1990, and that he now sits
on the dais whenever President Bush Jr. delivers speeches in Miami."
(12) Because the United States has permitted
ongoing Miami-based anti-Cuba terrorist activities against Cuba (in which some
3,000 people have been killed), Cuba then sent an anti-terrorist peacekeeping
team consisting of five men to Miami in order to monitor the terrorist
activities and prevent further attacks on Cuba. Unarmed--in possession of no
weapons whatsoever--their peacekeeping mission was exactly that: to maintain
peace and help prevent further terrorist attacks on Cuba.
All five men were arrested by the United States government in 1998 and charged
with "conspiracy to commit espionage" and other charges,and sentenced to
prison. Gerardo Hernandez received two life sentences and Antonio Guerrero
received one life sentence for their anti-terrorist efforts. Ramon Labanino
also received a life sentence for anti-terrorism. Fernando Gonzalez received
19 years, and Rene Gonzalez 15 years for their roles in attempting to quell
terrorist activities.
(13) Orlando Bosch remains free at the time of
this writing.
One might ask the same question at this point that many asked after seeing
films of 9/11: after watching Bush, filmed as he sat unresponsive, listening
to children read from a book about a goat for the better part of ten minutes
after being notified that America was under attack--and when we watched the
twin towers fall into their footprints--and when we watched the WTC7 building
also fall into its footprints--and when we learned Cheney and Bush refused to
testify under oath--and when lies were told to us and then repeated to us on
camera. "What is wrong with this picture?" What is wrong with all of these
pictures?
No one ever will know how wrong anything is or has been as long as the key
figures are permitted to arrogantly refuse to testify under oath, and as long
as we continue to turn a blind eye to what is going on and being done to
innocent people all around us. Is there a way out of this? Yes.
The first step begins with educating ourselves. Read the Constitution
(including, of course, the Bill of Rights), and the Declaration of
Independence. Keep these documents on hand. They are the keys to your liberty
and freedom. No law is legal unless it is in keeping
with the Constitution.
Devote at least an hour each day to reading or studying news from around the
world. Do not be afraid to ask questions. Ask many questions.
Some individuals have gone to considerable effort at this time in order to
provide us with important documentaries and other educational materials. They
have done so freely, with the hope that their work will help to awaken us.
Aaron Russo is such a person. He is an award winning film producer,
and he has just released his documentary, "America: Freedom to Fascism" on
DVD, on minimal-fee pay per view, as well as completely free of charge on
google. This documentary provides us with important history, including much of
the information stated above pertaining to what happened in 1913 and the
establishment of the Federal Reserve. Included in his documentary is extensive
testimony about the seemingly divine revelation that there is no law
compelling most Americans to pay a Federal Income Tax. A copy of his
documentary should be in every home in America as we rightfully take
back the servant government that is meant to serve us.
After educating yourself, the next step is to vote--always vote--and
demand that no electronic voting machines be used
unless there are paper copies of your votes that can be counted.
Feel free to talk about the persons for whom you are voting, and why
you are voting for them. Feel free to talk about everything. The old "rule"
that we should not talk about politics or religion helped to get us into this
mess. Talk about it all, freely and openly, as we were meant to do.
When you vote, do not be lured to simply vote
for one party or another. This is another scam. Find out what each person
desiring to be put into office is supporting. What do they believe in? If you
like their beliefs, vote for them. If not, do not vote for them. If they are
already in office and are not upholding their Oath of Office and not upholding
the Constitution, get rid of them by way of your vote. This will help to
establish an honest system made up of individuals who will abide by their Oath
of Office, and take their jobs seriously. Very seriously.
After weighing the facts yourself, demand that all measures and laws
that have been unconstitutional, including the establishment of the "Federal"
Reserve and illegal acts such as the so-called "patriot act" and the Military
Commission act be abolished. Give the right to coin and regulate money back to
an honest Congress after an honest Congress has been created. Demand freedom
for those who are being falsely held in U.S. prisons for unjust reasons, and
demand that all monies and properties falsely taken from the American Citizens
be immediately returned to them.
Finally, the last step is to never fall asleep again. The
government in this country will only work as it is supposed to work as long as
we, the Citizens it serves, monitor it carefully and demand that it work
according to the Constitution, and demand that all government servants of the
Citizens of this nation--right up to the president and vice-president--be held
completely accountable for all of their acts and actions while in office.

which is an account of her 1988 first meeting--and subsequent ongoing
visits--with a mysterious stranger who has been imparting information to her.
Former Secretary of State Katherine Harris banned this book of peace from the
State Library of Florida. Secretary of State Jim Smith subsequently permitted

I will sew no silken seam on a fine May mornin',
You can bide your time 'til your time runs out,
So take this as fair warning ...
- "Shepherd Lad," The Battlefield Band
Let us be absolutely clear on what has taken place. This was not simply a midterm election, not just a historic running of the table, not just a scathing repudiation of virtually everything the Bush administration has stood for since they swaggered into Washington six long years ago.
It was so very much more than this.
The back of the "Neo-conservative Revolution" has been broken, perhaps not for all time - simply because nothing truly evil ever really dies - but for a good long while. The ideology foisted upon an unwilling public by the likes of Cheney, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz, Perle, Ledeen and the rest, the ideology that has given us slaughter in Iraq and a ravaged reputation abroad, has been exposed and eviscerated. The Project for the New American Century, and all that was spawned from it, has been relegated, for now, to the dustbin of history.
As unutterably massive as this is, it still does not capture the entirety of the event.
There are many things that make the United States of America unique, but one stands out above all. Every other nation on Earth has within it cultural, religious or historical threads, often stretching back hundreds if not thousands of years, which bind its people together.
When you see the Orangemen march in Ireland, when you see the Serbs mark the anniversary of a massacre that happened 900 years ago, when you see the British celebrate Guy Fawkes Day, you are witnessing an echo out of time that, for good or ill, silently reminds the people of those countries that they have a shared heritage which stretches back dozens of generations.
The United States stands apart from this. We are an invention, the product of an idea, the children of a dream. We come from everywhere, and though our history is stained with far too much blood shed during the unfolding of our own history, the sum total is an amalgamation of the best and worst of the human experience. Nothing like this has ever existed anywhere, ever.
All we have to tie together this amazing and confusing experiment are a few old pieces of paper. The Declaration of Independence, the Constitution and the Bill of Rights are the only truths that each and every citizen of this country have completely in common. They are our unifying theme, our organizing principle, and we share this together because the basic idea was, and remains, that these belong to us and defend us and set us, now and forever, free.
It was not always so, and remains today a dream unfulfilled, but in the end, that was the genius of it all. These three documents, and the ideology behind them, were created to be self-improving entities. Much remains to be done to move along the "more perfect Union" Lincoln spoke of, and that work will never be completed ... and that is the point. These things are ours, and they are all that we truly have to bind us together, and our purpose as citizens is to bend our will toward the creation of that more perfect Union.
Before the sun came up on Wednesday, that shared heritage had been under a savage, unrelenting attack by men and women who have no respect for the idea and the dream which makes us all that we are as a people. The right to a trial has been shattered, the right to stand before your accuser has been removed, the right to be secure in home and person from governmental intrusion has been swept by the boards, and all by a president who once referred to the Constitution as "just a God damned piece of paper."
These cancers have not been cut out simply because of an election, of course. But the first, vital step towards repairing our shared heritage was taken on Tuesday night, simply because we have at long last returned to the basic Constitutional requirement of checks and balances within this government. No longer will the best interests of the people be slapped aside by people who have no patience for the process that was laid out by wiser and better men. Some logs have been thrown in the road, and for now, a real chance for healing has been gifted to us by the very democratic institutions these people would shun and shatter. The power of the vote, so often maligned and disdained, has been restored.
A more perfect Union, indeed.
Much remains to be done. The departure of Donald Rumsfeld from the Pentagon will not heal Iraq, nor will it bring back to life the soldiers and civilians who have died thanks to the hubris of others. The cornering of Dick Cheney has not sapped him of his power. George W. Bush remains an incurious front man whose very existence in that seat of power will stand as a constant threat to the safety and security of this nation and the world entire.
"U.S. envoy tells Iraqis election won't change policy," reads the Associated Press headline from Wednesday. That, in and of itself, says all we need to know about what remains to be done. For the first time in far too long, however, an opportunity has arrived to do more than scream into the thunderstorm and damn the rain.
The real work begins now.
