The full truth of ameriKa's lifelong war addiction (warning: BAD news)
....from the beginning -- starting with the guys in wigs, in brilliant, crushing comic book form. Warning: not for the faint-hearted.

Addicted to War
I like good comics! I have three or four triple Garfield paperbacks, partly because of creator Jim Davis' unique, indefinable brilliance in illuminating not only feline but human nature through the main character. And I've come across a few great expositions of political truth done via comics, notably Politics is a Dirty Word, by the unbeatable combination of Dick Hafer and Dale Crowley. Comics are a tremendous way to get major truths across to people in an era where they simply don't want to read books or pamphlets anymore.
The above booklet is from a left-populist viewpoint and only mentions the key factor of Israel once, but don't let that deter you from going the distance with it. If you hate the "new world order" this is your chance to latch onto the most devastating indictment of it under one cover in history. It's crammed with actual quotes from the perpetrators and clever visuals, including bleak photographs of the civilian victims of our aggressions.
Please note that from over a century ago one of the main motivations for all this killing was that American manufacturers had reached the limit in selling their consumer goods domestically, and in concert with the politicians' drive to make ameriKa a monstrous bully the whole world would fear, went in search of other populations to addict to Coca-Cola, Kleenex, electric fans et al.
The facts and quotes (and some great caricatures) ranged in the above resource may convince you that ameriKa has been evil, rapacious, genocidal from the start. If so, you're perhaps a sadder but wiser citizen for it. When I think how casually I've taken all this myself it pleasantly ruins my life all over again. I believed the "liberal" media's praise for Bush-41 and voted for him. I was political 25 years ago, but would drive past Fort Detrick while visiting friends among the dairy farms in that part of Maryland and not entertain a thought that it was up to anything sinister, much less shockingly evil.
So much for Mr. Reagan's "shining city on a hill" -- the only shine was from the casings of bullets and soldiers' spit-shined shoes. We're not the new Jerusalem -- we're the new Mongols, and have coincidentally lasted about as long as Genghis Khan and Timur's reign of terror over Eurasia.
We're bad, and that's not good. But to me, the very refreshing and cleansing part is knowing all the more clearly what's wrong with us, and that somebody somewhere would take the trouble to chart it so creatively and forcefully yet sensitively.
Please share this link with somebody today.
