The War Mode FOR SURE!

Did you read the story of BIG GUY and the author?
BIG GUY is the United States and "author" is the third world.
We have bullied people for too long. 9-11 wasn't a BULLY attacking an
innocent victim. It was the BULLY catching a bloody nose from the runt!
We cannot continue beating people into submission. It isn't right, first of
all. Second, they are fighting back. We can dish it out, but not take it.
I know you are smart enough to realize that the American Government is not
an innocent victim.
Now I would agree that the American people may be ignorant of what the
government is doing in OUR name, but still ignorance is not innocence.
At some point you have to ask: what is the common factor in all of the
international conflicts since WW2? We have furthered American corporate
interests throught the barrel of a gun!
Is it possible that EVERYONE on the planet is wrong except America? All of
the South American/ Central American countries were wrong and we were
innocent? The Nicarguans, the Panamanians, the Colombians, Venezualans, the
Mexicans, the Cubans, the Hondurans, Grenada?
All of the SouthEast Asian countries were wrong, the Vietnamese, cambodians,
phillipines, all wrong?
The Middle East and North Africa? The Afghanis were wrong? The Iraqis, the
Palestinians, the Libyans, the Iranians?
The Koreans? EVERYONE is wrong except us?
Come on! Any country that gets involved in as many wars and armed conflicts
as we do has a PROBLEM!
You cannot continue to claim it is everyone else if you get in fights all of
the time. At some point you have to look at yourself.
So lets look at OURSELVES.
Look at how America has treated its OWN people:
The Japanese internment camps, the Jews turned back to the Holocaust (no
refuge given), the Chinese railroad workers, the Blacks, the Native
Americans (the genocide, biological warfare, theft of their land), the
Africans condemned to chattel slavery for hundred of years...
The Native Americans and the Black Americans will not be free of the scars,
socially or physically, for many more generations.
Now, please, do not let anyone tell you we are a victim.
We are the EMPIRE! Watch Star Wars and remind yourself: we are not the
rebel alliance (like Skywalker) we are the EMPIRE.
We are doomed to the fate of the Roman Empire unless we change our outlook
and philosophy. We cannot continue to bully people and get what we want
through violence.
