This is one face of the U.S., the ‘we are so noble, so peace-loving, so altruistic, so caring, so committed to human rights and equality and democracy’ one!

This is the other! “Buddy, you ought to see what we do when no one is looking!”

Friends, when I wrote the last post, I was struck by the gross symbolism of the photograph, how it seemed to convey much more than four sick marines desecrating the bodies of three dead Taliban fighters who were killed trying to protect their country from American imperialism.

Then, this morning, on Anti-War, I noticed an article by Arthur Silber, a well-known American commentator and, at its end, it finished with these words.

The rulers of the United States piss on you, and on every other human being on Earth not favored by privilege and power.

The link to his article, which makes powerful reading, can be found at the end of this post and obviously I recommend that everyone reads it. It is a strong indictment of the U.S. and everything it stands for.

The article stresses that the Rulers of the U.S. care about nothing or no one, not even America citizens. The only people who count in their estimation are Americans who hold power, wealth and privilege and their counterparts elsewhere in the West.

Friends, this photograph says more about the U.S. than a million words could ever do. It show four American marines urinating on the corpses of three dead Taliban fighters which is a crime.

Now you might say this is nothing more than some soldiers letting off steam, just treating the enemy with contempt. But it is far more than that. What is on display is the American attitude to anyone or anything that gets in their imperial road.

It shows American contempt for non-Americans, for those who disagree with American ‘values’ and American ‘ambitions’ and American ‘interests’. That Australia is closely allied with the U.S. I find deeply offensive.

I am in league with many Americans who are horrified by what their country is doing, by its warmongering, its insatiable killing and destruction, by its greed, by its arrogance and conceit.

Dare I say it, the filthy, disgusting, sordid act shown above which, I am sure, is only one of many things that have taken place in Iraq and Afghanistan (and most other theaters of war) puts the icing on the cake for me.

Only the video of the helicopter crew mowing down Iraqi civilians comes close to this or perhaps the torture of naked Iraqis in Abu Ghraib with that dumb female smiling as if torturing was such fun or the cages in Guantanamo!

Friends, by their works ye shall know them! The world should be fully aware of what Americans are by now under their current ‘leadership’. There is plenty of evidence for those who want to seek it out.

And it proves that the U.S. must never be allowed to control the world, not under any circumstances!

P.S. Why not consider joining PEACE? Read the Charter first.

“My God is better than yours, Ron!”

“I’ll hit you with my walking stick if you let me up!”

There are three people here, two of them trying to kill each other. The Referee is keeping close watch on proceedings following the Guillotine Choke.

Yes, friends, in the race to be the world’s most powerful man, it seems that we have two practicing Mormons, Romney and Huntsman (though I’m not sure whether that means they have multiple wives or not), and a Capitalist (Paul) who thinks that markets should rule the world (despite the mess that the world is in financially because of markets and Capitalism).

Yes, these three worthies are locked in battle to see which of them should oppose Obama, the glib lawyer who promised far more and delivered far less than Jesus has (thus far).

Yes, the world is agog with the spectacle of Americans going ga-ga over the contenders. We have seen them in debate and addressing selected audiences, a largely yawning spectacle indeed. All that is left is to see them in cage-combat, their faces contorted, their blood flowing as they apply choker-holds to their opposition.

Now look, let me state at the outset that I really don’t think Ron Paul should get into the cage. He’s too old. He might think he’s a budgerigar.

And the other two are just as likely to hold a prayer meeting and speak as George Bush used to, to their Mormon God, in the middle of a spine-breaker ankle throw, one perfected by the Ancient Aztecs during an erotic virility celebration.

…other creatures are spending their lives making the Earth more beautiful,

… and are helping to fill the air with beautiful fragrances,

…and pollinating the fruit trees and flowers so that beauty and food is everywhere,

…and such creatures also provide honey to try to sweeten the nature of brutal, greedy, destructive human predators. Alas, to no avail!

We want the owner of this beach bungalow to feel secure, don’t we?

Politicians, who are rich themselves, look after their mates!

I read somewhere the other day why war is so necessary. I don’t know why it didn’t occur to me a long time ago. I mean it makes such good sense when you have it explained to you.

War, friends, is to keep the rich people feeling secure, feeling that their millions, their mansions, their luxury motor yachts are safe and not likely to be taken from them.

Of course, it’s hard for us ordinary folk, the ones who just get along, who just survive day by day, to understand how it must feel to have so much money that we just don’t know what to spend it on. I mean, to have that kind of pressure must be difficult to endure. I mean, to have to decide whether to buy a castle in Spain or a grand Villa in Italy must be gut-wrenching. Of course, many of these wealthy people would solve the problem by buying both!

And then, on top of that quandary, to have to face the possibility that someone might take away their vast wealth is another constant worry and, of course, I don’t mean the tax man! These wealthy people have the tax situation well under control. They set up schemes in all manner of places and pay little or no tax at all.

No, I mean ‘TERRISTS’. Yes folks, the world is full of terrorists who want to take the wealth from the ultra-rich and spread it around. Have you ever heard of such a terrible notion. I mean taking the wealth from a rich person must be the cruelest thing anyone has ever thought of.

Then, to add insult to injury, giving it to the great unwashed who would just waste it feeding their children and building a home for them is inconceivable. Shock, horror!

You could be forgiven for thinking the world’s greatest problem is who Americans will elect as their next President. The television is filled with commentary about who said what to who and which male has his nose in front (of course, women don’t count in America)!

Yes, Ron Paulus, Mitt Romulus and Rick Sanitarium, some notables in the race, are strutting their stuff and defending their philandering or extremist reputations as best they can. Each one is being more religious than the others, more nationalistic than the others, more decisive than the others, in fact more everything to every voter than the others!

In the meantime, Emperor Obama continues on with his plans to take over the world and to that end he has planned a leaner, meaner army and you can’t get a meaner army than the Pentagon already has so hang onto your hats. The Romans might have had the short sword but that’s old hat when compared with drones, metal-melting, genetic-deforming, depleted uranium, napalm and phosphorus explosives and, of course, water-boarding, etc.

Actually, the Presidential coverage has had one benefit: it has taken some of the heat out of the Eurozone Crisis and just where the U.S. is up to in its invasion of the Free World. People are too busy wondering whether Ron will forget his name or speculating whether Mitt might have two or three first ladies in the White House or whether Rick will get into bed with the Gay Movement.

The Roman Empire improved things wherever they went!

The Americans destroy wherever they go and create hatred!

Friends, I wonder whether you have been to Europe and seen the evidence of Ancient Rome’s empire on your travels. If you see the Roman Baths in Bath and perhaps some of the Roman ruins still left in Turkey or aqueducts in many place, you will get some idea of the extent and influence of the Ancient Roman Empire.

But it is not only the buildings that the Roman Empire left behind, but the roads, language, laws, etc. What follows is a brief description of the legacy of Rome just to refresh your memory:

“Despite the fact that the Western Roman Empire collapsed in the year 476, it has left a lasting impact on the world that continues to this day. The basis of its power was its Armed Forces which were largely invincible and were extremely well trained and led.

But the Romans did not attempt to exterminate or crush their conquests. Once they were brought under control then Rome set about setting up proper order and also began educating and building and improving the infrastructure and local government. They were smart!

Like the Greek civilization that came before it, the Roman Empire set the stage for what would become Western civilization. The influence of Rome was so powerful that a number of states claimed to be the successor of it in the many centuries that followed its collapse. An example of this would be the Holy Roman Empire. When the Ottomans captured Constantinople in 1453, the Sultan Mehmed II made the city his capital and said that it was the throne of the Roman Empire.

In addition to Western Civilization, the Roman Empire also had a lasting effect on Eastern Civilizations. A large number of nations would borrow their legal systems from Rome, and the technology for cement was based on discoveries that were made by the Romans. Christianity was also born during the Roman Empire, and it was Rome that introduced neo-classical architecture to the world. The Romans built an advanced road system that can still be seen today, thousands of years after their initial construction. They also built aqua ducts some of which are still in use. While Western civilization today may borrow much from the Greeks, their legal system is Roman at its foundation.”

Pretty impressive, eh! Now, by way of comparison, let us document the achievements of the emerging American Empire.

“Now, look, Fellow Founding Fathers, what will we call ourselves? I suggest Americans. It sounds grand, exceptional, noble, born to rule!”

“You may have invented yourselves earlier than us, but God has been watching over us for thousands of years. We are His chosen people. Too bad, eh?”

Friends, to answer this question requires an ability to think outside the box, to rid one’s mind of all indoctrination, all the nonsense that we have been fed since birth.

To begin, let me make this point: many nations have been going for centuries, some for millennia (thousands of years)! And some others have been going for a matter of a few hundred of years and one nation, one built upon racism and elitism, has been in existence since 1947! Wow!

Now, who are these ‘Johnny come Lately’ nations and how has their emergence affected the world? Let’s take the U.S. first.

As the flood of immigrants from Europe impacted upon the Native Indians on the North American Continent, the result was not good for the local inhabitants. To cut a long story short, they were ‘genocided’ out of existence.

Yes, the ‘white trash’ that moved from Europe did not bring with them nobility or generosity. No, they brought guns and created soldiers and quickly dispatched those who quarreled with the insatiable demands of the white invaders.

Once the ‘invaders’ dispatched the Native Indians, they then went to Africa and, without a second thought, stole black Africans to work on the cotton plantations as slaves. Boy oh boy, did those black slaves get a bad time of it.

Eventually, the ‘whites’ in the North of the new nation decided that slavery was not a good look, so the white ‘riffraff’ from Europe fought a bitter civil war with each other.

The ‘Americans’ also fought against Britain and France and anyone else who dared show their face in the ‘New World’. Soon, the white ‘riffraff’ moved elsewhere in the world, anywhere there was a buck to be made.

A few hundred years later this brash, warmongering nation lays claim to being exceptional and, modestly, claims it is the greatest nation in the history of the world forgetting about India and China and Greece completely. I guess if you don’t blow your own trumpet, who will?

And all those who promote war, threaten war or consider war are the enemy.

Friends, Amerikagulag, one of our Forum members, wrote the words in the title and those above in one of his comments.

In his inimitable way he has clearly shown the reality of our current human situation and, if we go back in time, the human situation for centuries.

Indeed, all those who promote war, threaten war or consider war are the enemies of every peace-loving person on the planet whether they be individuals, groups or nations.

But it is the nations that talk about peace, that pretend they are advancing the cause of peace that are the most dangerous because there are misguided, low brain-power people who believe them.

And of course, there is one nation in particular who has turned this disgusting con-job into an art form: The United States of America!

Friends, this is a photograph of part of the Moon, one taken using special film which introduces colors that aren’t really there.

As everyone knows, the Moon is a drab place where no life exists: no flowers, no birds, no rivers, absolutely nothing.

One day, perhaps in the not too distant future, our Earth, Gaea, will look like the Moon.

Tragically, there will be two dead planets circling each other for eternity but who will know, or care?

On Earth, there will be signs of habitation by many creatures, the dominant one being mankind.

And, somewhere, amidst the ruins, a crude, hand-written sign will say:

HUMANS WUZ HERE!

STUPID GREEDY CRUEL BASTARDS!
