Helen Thomas Deviates From the Terrorism Script
by Glenn Greenwald

Following up on Thursday's post concerning our collective refusal to
discuss how American actions and policies fuel Terrorism:
at a White House press conference yesterday with Janet Napolitano and
John Brennan, Helen Thomas shows -- yet again -- that she's one of
the very few White House reporters willing to deviate from approved
orthodoxy scripts. She asks the prohibited question about the motives
of Terrorists, and keeps asking as she receives complete non-responses,
until they all just decide to ignore her:

...But from a social science, explanatory point of view,
what we have to remember is that there can be a handful of
al-Balawis, or there can be thousands or hundreds of
thousands. It depends on how many Abu Ghraibs, Fallujahs,
Lebanons and Gazas the United States initiates or supports
to the hilt. Unjust wars and occupations radicalize people.
The American Right wing secretly knows this,
but likes the vicious circle it produces.
Wars make profits for the military-industrial complex,
and the resulting terrorism terrifies the clueless US public
and helps hawks win elections, allowing them to pursue
further wars.
And so it goes, until the Republic is bankrupted and in
ruins and its unemployed have to live in tent cities.

DENNIS KUCINICH

We have come a great distance in seventy-five years; from the New Deal to the Raw Deal, from having nothing to fear but fear itself, to being afraid of everything. We traded democracy's warm heart containing the ideals of faith, fairness and frugality, for the greedy, cold calculations of the Dow Jones ticker. The New Deal saved free market capitalism with jobs and regulation; now both sink in the swamp of speculation, manipulation and capitulation.

The Golden Rule of "do unto others as you would have them do unto you," is submerged by the rule of gold, "do unto others before they do unto you."

Some people will ask of this Congress, what were we thinking? Why did we give $700 billion bailout to Wall Street without fixing what caused the problem in the first place? Why did we rig the free markets for security fraudsters? Why didn't we explore alternatives to let Wall Street solve its own problems? Why didn't we have money save millions of homeowners, create millions of jobs, and a green economy? Why didn't we stop the speculators? Why wasn't there accountability? Why didn't we take time to make an intelligent decision?

Why? Why? Why?

Bush is my shepherd; I dwell in want.
He maketh logs to be cut down in national forests.
He leadeth trucks into the still wilderness.
He restoreth my fears.
He leadeth me in the paths of international disgrace for his ego's sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of pollution and war, I will find no exit,
for thou art in office.
Thy tax cuts for the rich and thy media control, they discomfort me.
Thou preparest an agenda of deception in the presence of thy religion.
Thou anointest my head with foreign oil.
My health insurance runneth out.
Surely megalomania and false patriotism shall follow me all the days of thy term,
And my jobless child shall dwell in my basement forever.

A good example of why the U.S. Armed Forces
are UnAmerican
W.M.D.
WHAT ABOUT These AMERICAN
W eapons of
  M ass
    D estruction ! >:-(








IF America is allowed to use its WMD to kill millions of people in
Korea,Vietnam,Cambodia,El Salvador,Guatemala, Nicaragua, Iraq, ect
Than ALL Nations Should have WMD to defend themselves against
the Evil American Empire.

Imagine the possibillities if : The $ Billions $ was spent on Rebuilding America's Roads, Schools, Hospitals,
Public Transit Systems, ect. And NOT making Killing Machines.
Only then will GOD begin to bless America once again.
