Hubris as the Evil Force in History

I have always been intrigued by the Battle of Bull Run, the opening battle of the US Civil War, known to southerners as the War of Northern Aggression. Extreme hubris characterized both sides, the North before the battle and the South afterwards. Republican politicians and their ladies in their finery rode out to Manassas, the Virginia town through which the…

Obama blames Europe for US economic problems?

Obama blames Europe for US economic problems? On Friday, President Obama gave a speech on the state of the US economy. Significant parts of his address, however, were dedicated to Europe. President Obama blamed the Euro crisis on many difficulties America is facing now. Is this fair that five months before the election, Obama is trying to shift the blame…

Collapse At Hand

Ever since the beginning of the financial crisis and quantitative easing, the question has been before us: How can the Federal Reserve maintain zero interest rates for banks and negative real interest rates for savers and bond holders when the US government is adding $1.5 trillion to the national debt every year via its budget deficits? Not long ago the…

Washington’s Hypocrisies

The US government is the second worst human rights abuser on the planet and the sole enabler of the worst–Israel. But this doesn’t hamper Washington from pointing the finger elsewhere. The US State Department’s “human rights report” focuses its ire on Iran and Syria, two countries whose real sin is their independence from Washington, and on the bogyman- in-the-making–China, the…

Recovery or Collapse? Bet on Collapse

The US financial system and, probably, the financial system of Europe, like the police, no longer serves a useful social purpose. In the US the police have proven themselves to be a greater threat to public safety than private sector criminals. I just googled “police brutality” and up came 183,000,000 results. (Here are two recent brutal assaults, one deadly, by…

Are Americans Catching On, Waking Up, Unplugging?

In response to the question in the title I can report that most of my readers are. Almost everyone got the point of the last column.

The Case of the Missing Terrorists

If there were any real terrorists, Jose Rodriguez would be dead. Who is Jose Rodriguez? He is the criminal who ran the CIA torture program. Most of his victims were not terrorists or even insurgents. Most were hapless individuals kidnapped by warlords and sold to the Americans as “terrorists” for the bounty paid. If Rodriguez’s identity was previously a secret,…

Does The West Have A Future?

Living in America is becoming very difficult for anyone with a moral conscience, a sense of justice, or a lick of intelligence.

Disinformation On Every Front

Some readers have come to the erroneous conclusion that the Matrix consists of Republican Party disinformation as if there is no disinformation from the left. Others think that propaganda is the business of Obama and the Democrats. In fact, propaganda from the right, the left and the middle are all part of the disinformation fed to americans. If I may…

Make Love, then War

Dear Friends, I cannot vouch for the truth of this report. However, if Bob Dylan is accepting a Presidential Freedom Award (list of recipients) from the White House warmonger who has exterminated freedom both at home and abroad, it is very disheartening. Perhaps Dylan sees this as irony–the White House recognizing Bob Dylan. Alternatively, Dylan and Baez have grown comfortable…

Brewing a Conflict with China

Washington has pressured the Philippines, whose government it owns, into conducting joint military exercises in the South China Sea. Washington’s excuse is that China has territorial disputes with the Philippines, Indonesia, and other countries concerning island and sea rights in the South China Sea. Washington asserts that China’s territorial disputes with the like of Indonesia and the Philippines are a…

How Liberty Was Lost

When did things begin going wrong in America? “From the beginning,” answer some. English colonists, themselves under the thumb of a king, exterminated American Indians and stole their lands, as did late 18th and 19th century Americans. Over the course of three centuries the native inhabitants of America were dispossessed, just as Israelis have been driving Palestinians off their lands…

Unplugging Americans From The Matrix

Americans, the British, and Western Europeans are accustomed to thinking of themselves as the representatives of freedom, democracy, and morality in the world. The West passes judgment on the rest of the world as if the West is God and the rest of the world are barbarians in need of chastisement, invasion, and occupation. As readers know, from time to…

Washington Leads World Into Lawlessness

The US government pretends to live under the rule of law, to respect human rights, and to provide freedom and democracy to citizens. Washington’s pretense and the stark reality are diametrically opposed. US government officials routinely criticize other governments for being undemocratic and for violating human rights. Yet, no other country except Israel sends bombs, missiles, and drones into sovereign…

What Is ObamaCare?

Growing up in the post-war era (after the Second World War), I never expected to live in the strange Kafkaesque world that exists today.

False Flag Attack

The stagecoach bounced along the uneven trail through Indian lands. A year ago there would have been danger from Indians. But Ulysses Grant had sent General Philip Henry Sheridan, who had brought the horrors of war to Confederate civilians, to annihilate the plains Indians.

Empires Then and Now

Great empires, such as the Roman and British, were extractive. The empires succeeded, because the value of the resources and wealth extracted from conquered lands exceeded the value of conquest and governance. The reason Rome did not extend its empire east into Germany was not the military prowess of Germanic tribes but Rome’s calculation that the cost of conquest exceeded…

Both The Market and Government Are Irrational

One of the great economic myths is that markets are rational. Not a day passes without this myth being disproved scores of times, but the myth persists.

Dennis Kucinich and “Wackiness”

US Representative Dennis Kucinich’s defeat in a Democratic primary is more evidence that americans are incapable of recognizing leadership.

The 0% Doctrine

The Global War on Terror, with its burgeoning secret military, the elite special operations forces, and its growing drone air force, controlled in part by the CIA, should be thought of as the president’s private war.
