Subject : [nycjunto-discuss] The BIG LIE still works

I won't repeat my view of governance at all scales from
neighborhood to global which I presented in my email on 03/24 .
I have uploaded it to
http://cosy.com/Liberty/[nycjunto]Re_FriedmanNYT.eml
I'll just quote :
However , in this case , I think it is clear that the UN was
transparently reflecting the opinions of the world's populations ,
and the gross dishonesty , distortion and warmongering by US was
clear to all with access to media beyond the American mainstream .
At Junto Thursday , I was most surprised at the apparent
acceptance of the BIG LIEs of the Bush War and Terror mongers .
The record has been disgusting .
The standard set by the Clinton debacle that the President can be
more of a liar than lawyers permit among themselves , has been used
with gusto by Bush and his fellow US hegemonists who look for security
thru global force and fear rather than representation and rational
conviction .
It won't work . THE TERROR LEVEL IS UP not down . And we have bred
perhaps 10s of thousands of Saddam Bin Laden's .
What else can come from naked overwhelming force backed by exposed lies
and frauds and forgeries .

And at the same time , the continuing colonization and Bantustanization
of the Palestinian region on the basis of the explicit denial of the
wisdom of the very first clause of our own first amendment causes the
hearts of moral people around the globe to seethe as did South African
apartheid .
You can either believe in the wisdom of our first amendment as a
foundation for domestic tranquility , or you can believe in Zionism .
They are not compatible .
There are a number of religions which proselytize "be fruitful and
multiply" , some Moslems , Catholics , Mormons and Hassidic Jews ,
among them . ( There is a general tendency for religions to be pro
propagation and states to be pro non-reproductive ( as long as non-
capitalistic ) gratification . )
A fecundity war has been noted by both sides in Jerusalem . The Jewish
settler population in the occupied territories has doubled from 200,000
to 400,000 in just the last few years with 66 new settlements this
year ( if I heard the facts correctly ) .
The voice of the world cannot afford to be , and will not be
intimidated by US anti-democratic militarist supremacy into
ignoring this most grotesque and dead-end oppression of a population .
Iraq will have been just a short term diversion from this open wound .
It has been suggested that NATO "peace-keepers" move in . The non-
Zionist population would welcome anybody ( but US ) who might protect
them from the slaughter and destruction which continue whether or not
another Mau-Mau attack against the massively armed master class
happens or not .
See http://www.onepalestine.org for an alternative vision based on
American founding principles .
