The U.S Government is the Christian equivalent of Al-Qaeda ---Think about it!
American culture today represents the De-Evolution of humane consciousness.
THE OTHER  U.S.A - No flag waving here! No Pro-Government Network Propaganda either.
BELOW ARE SEVERAL REASONS WHY THE U.S REGIME IS THE WORLDS GREATEST TERRORIST & DICTATOR.
Visit William Blum's site for a history of American bullyboy murder & imperialism around the world since WWII
 http://www.killinghope.org/
As John le Carré said in The Times of London: "America has entered one of its periods of historic madness, but this is the worst I can remember."

Harold Pinter commented: "…the American administration is now a bloodthirsty wild animal. Bombs are its only vocabulary. Many Americans, we know, are horrified by the posture of their government, but seem to be helpless."

Just as Soviet Russia's population were brainwashed into believing that their government's benevolent ideology was to put the masses first; while the real story was Stalinist terror. Equally, the U.S masses are deluded by the Capitalist ideology and it's war machine fooling them that they live in a democracy because big business fraud, lying, and bullyboy manipulation-somehow- represents their Freedom!--
    As Tom Robbins suggests: The missing link in Darwinism is not as illusive as we're led to believe. It's not missing, it's all around us. The thoughtless majority who are so dumbstruck by narrow minded nationalism & America's superiority myth, they are blind to why they are so hated worldwide.

After spending all the money in 2000 to basically buy the election, the sense I get from this BUSH Dynasty is that this is not a family that has a particularly strong commitment to American democracy. Its sense of how to win elections comes out of a CIA manual, not out of the Declaration of Independence or the Constitution.

  • GLOBAL JUSTICE-for the USA
    By Geoffrey Robertson- July 18, 2000.

    CULTURE

    How much do you know about the BUSH family?


        What does the UNITED STATES have in common with Autocracies and Dictatorships in third world countries, like Africa, Latin America and Asia?
        Many of the countries in these regions are run by military fanatics and the generational families that promote an aggressive military culture as the most ligitimate way of stealing hundreds of millions of dollars in the National interest. They line their pockets and that of their friends with the corruption that is the International Arms Trade.

        The United States has its ruling family that is doing the same thing. Using fear to conjoul the masses into ignoring the BUSH FAMILY history and how G.W invaded and murder tens of thousands of Iraqi civilians to appease his fathers failed attempt to control Middle-East Oil.

    At the signed order of Bushist viceroy Paul Bremer , almost every aspect of Iraqi life -- electricity, water, medicine, education, agriculture, transportation, communications and, above all, banking and finance -- was laid open to unfettered exploitation by the plutocrats and lootocrats of the "civilized" world.

    Long before Genghis W. Bush and his Boardroom Horde launched their campaign of rapine against the clapped-out Iraqi regime, there was a little incident involving hijacked planes, famous buildings and the mass slaughter of innocent people on American soil that caused a good deal of commotion at the time.
