"You have to hand it to America. A
clinical manipulation of power worldwide
masquerading as a force for
universal good."
Harold Pinter, 2005 Nobel Prize for
Literature
"The power of the killing machine rests in
the broad based popular support it
receives through the investment system and
the financial markets." - Catherine Austin Fitts
"The hegemonic
system is bound to strive after the annexation of all independent states.
The Reich of the Nazis and
the commonwealth of the
Marxians are planned as societies of undisturbed peace.
They are to be forged by pacification - the violent subjection of all
those not ready to yield without résistance." - Ludwig von
Mises
"Suspension of international politics
through hegemony has been the fundamental aim of US foreign policy since
the 1940s.
Since the end of the
Cold War, the US has sought to
preserve hegemony by possessing a margin of military superiority so vast that
it can keep any would-be great power pliant." - Chris Layne and Benjamin
Schwarz
"Historical record shows hegemony is never a winning grand
strategy.
The reason is simple: The primary aim of states in
international politics is to survive and maintain their sovereignty.
When one state becomes too powerful - becomes a hegemon - imbalance of
power in its favor is a menace to the security of all other states.
So
throughout modern international political history, the rise of a would-be
hegemon always has triggered the formation of counter-hegemonic alliances by
other states." - Christopher Layne

"Neoconservatism, whatever its complex
roots, has become indelibly associated with concepts like
coercive regime
change, unilateralism and American hegemony." - Francis
Fukuyama
"Since 1945 neo-cons have insisted
on acquiring and maintaining military supremacy. The US continues to expand its
power and military reach. " -
Robert Kagan
"Two centuries ago,
a former European colony decided
to catch up with Europe. It succeeded
so well that the USA became a monster, in which the taints, the sickness and
the inhumanity of Europe have grown to appalling dimensions." - Frantz
Fanon
"Transnational elite is indeed running
the old world order, and they
will for a while longer. Most empires are destined to implode. The overreach of
the American empire (more than 700 military installations around the world in
120 nations), coupled with a defense budget of $1 trillion annually (all
related "defense" expenditures) cannot be long sustained." - Mitch
Paradise
"I am absolutely convinced,
you never have to give up any freedom in order to be secure." Ron Paul
"I am a retired military officer
who served his country for 30 years. In all that time, I never questioned my
supreme duty to support, defend and bear true allegiance to the Constitution.
All too often history proves that
demagogues hide behind the
mantras of national
security and national interests." - Paul LaBonte
"In the end, more than freedom,
they wanted security. They wanted a comfortable life, and they lost it all -
security, comfort, and freedom. When the Athenians finally wanted not to give
to society but for society to give to them, when the freedom they wished for most was freedom from
responsibility then Athens
ceased to be free and was never free again." - Edward Gibbon
The five permanent members
of the United Nations Security Council are the US, Russia,
China, France and the United
Kingdom.
The US exports more
weapons than any other nation on Earth.
The US, Russia,
China, France and the UK are
the major suppliers and exporters of military hardware and are in possession
of most of the weapons on the face of the Earth.
Administrations of
Ronald Reagan and
George HW Bush authorized the sale to
Iraq of toxic chemicals and
deadly biological virus, such
as Bacillus Anthracis and Clostridium botulinum, to arm Iraq
against Iran.
The US and
European allies provided Saddam Hussein chemical and biological weapons.
American officials claim Iraq has deployed mustard gas, sarin, VX.
Sixty Defense Intelligence Agency officers secretly provide detailed
information on Iranian deployments, tactical planning for battles, plans for
airstrikes and bomb-damage assessments for Iraq.
2000 US global military sales are averaging between $10 and
$13 billion per year.
2001 to 2005 US delivers
2,099 surface-to-air missiles to nations in the developing world, 20% more than
Russia, the next largest supplier. During that same period, the US sent 10
"major surface combatants" like frigates and destroyers to developing nations.
Collectively, the four major European weapons producers shipped thirteen. Along
with the ships the US provided 338 anti-ship missiles. Russia supplied 180
anti-ship missiles.
2006 Pentagon inks arms sales
agreements worth $21
billion.
"The "business" of the US Intelligence Community is the
national
security, and today that security is threatened by a chaotic multiplicity
of adversaries and enemies, real and potential.
These threats know no
national or regional boundaries or borders, there is no clearly defined
battlefield. They are fueled by a world beset by competition over resources,
land, info and ideologies.
To
one degree or another, all nations are affected by the phenomenon known as
globalization. While it has benefitted
many, its underside fierce competition for global energy reserves and emerging
markets, tremendous disparities
between rich and poor nations, criminal
networks that create and feed black markets in drugs and even human beings,
and the rapid transmission of
disease all breed potential threats to our security." - US Intelligence
Community (USIC)
"We know the US sells more weapons
abroad than any other nation, and we know
it is war above all that
makes the bankers rich." - Richard C. Cook
2004 Viktor Bout is hired
by George Walker Bush to deliver 110,000 AK-47 assault rifles and 80,000
pistols from an American base in Bosnia to Iraq security forces. The weapons
never arrived. Viktor Bout is known to have delivered weapons to
Charles Taylor, the
Angola government and rebel forces opposing the
Angola government.
2006 "The
people of America have been required to
give up much in the way of privacy and
personal rights in the 'war on
terror', but when it comes to interfering
in a business decision,
our government is quite willing to
jeopardize national security." - Thomas W. McCarthy, comment on allowing a
Dubai corporation to run stevedore services at 12 East Coast ports and nine
ports in the Gulf of
Mexico
2008 The
Pentagon contracts military trainers
to 138 nations.
Private
military "contractors" now outnumber uniformed military personnel in Iraq.
Over sixty major private military
corporations supply mercenaries worldwide, 40 are based in the
US.
"While poor kids and middle-age National Guardsmen leave their
families and risk getting blown up
in Iraq to defend freedom and democracy,
back home George Walker
Bush proudly trades away those principles and ideals at every opportunity
in exchange for small, and probably imaginary, slivers of increased security."
- John Miller
"Without public debate and without
congressional hearings, a segment of the Pentagon and
fellow travelers have embraced
a doctrine known as the Long War,
which projects an "arc of
instability" caused by insurgent
groups from Europe to South
Asia that will last between 50 and 80 years. According to one of its
engineers, Iraq, Afghanistan and
Pakistan are just "small wars
in the midst of a big one." - Tom Hayden 03/28/10
"The heart of America's problems
rest with a corporate dominated public policy of perpetual military and class
warfare.
The tragic reality is a hell on Earth of suffering, hatred and
violence even in history's richest, most
technologically advanced
nation, leading to weapons of mass destruction and
suicide of humanity.
Unless Americans stop dodging the
connection between domestic and global crises and
public policy of perpetual warfare
treated as necessity, there is
no hope for America." - Nicholas
Seidita
"During a training session
in 1973 - when Nixon was at his
most volatile - an officer posted at Vandenberg Air Force Base in
California asked what may have seemed a reasonable question:
"How can I
know that an order I receive to launch my missiles came from a sane president?"
The answer came quickly. The
inquiring officer, Major Harold Hering, was discharged from the Air Force for
"failure to demonstrate acceptable qualities of leadership." He became a truck
driver." - Stephen Kinzer

[To do
so America must:]
MAINTAIN NUCLEAR
STRATEGIC SUPERIORITY
Basing the
US nuclear deterrent upon a global, nuclear net assessment that weighs the full
range of current and emerging threats, not merely the US - Russia
balance. |
RESTORE PERSONNEL STRENGTH
Of today's
force to roughly the levels anticipated in the "Base Force" outlined
by HW Bush, an increase in active-duty strength from 1.4 million to 1.6
million. |
REPOSITION US FORCES
To respond
to 21st century strategic realities by shifting permanently based forces to
Southeast Europe and Southeast Asia, and by changing naval deployment patterns
to reflect growing US strategic concerns in East Asia. |
MODERNIZE CURRENT US FORCES SELECTIVELY
Proceeding
with the F-22 program while increasing purchases of lift, electronic support
and other aircraft; expanding submarine and surface combatant fleets;
purchasing Comanche helicopters and medium-weight ground vehicles for the Army,
and the V-22 Osprey "tilt-rotor" aircraft for the Marine Corps.
|
DEVELOP AND DEPLOY GLOBAL MISSILE DEFENSES
CONTROL THE NEW "INTERNATIONAL COMMONS" OF
SPACE AND "CYBERSPACE"
EXPLOIT THE "REVOLUTION IN MILITARY AFFAIRS"
To insure
the long-term superiority of United States conventional forces establish a
two-stage transformation process which maximizes the value of current weapons
systems through the application of advanced
technologies, and, produces more profound improvements. |
INCREASE DEFENSE SPENDING
To a
minimum level of 3.5 to 3.8% of gross domestic product, adding $15 billion to
$20 billion to total defense spending annually. |

promoted an ideology of total US
world domination.
"We are the invaders. We
are the imperialists." - Kim Iannone |

"The management, then and now,
truly believes America is the master of the Earth and anyone who defies us will
be napalmed or blockaded or
covertly overthrown.
We are beyond law, which is not unusual for an
empire; unfortunately, we are also
beyond common sense." - Gore Vidal
"Unilateral, illegitimate actions
have not managed to solve any problems. We are witnessing an almost uncontained
hyper-use of military force in international relationships." -
Vladmir Putin 02/07
People fear
death, an instrument of
fate.
People killed by execution rather
than fate,
is like carving wood in place of a carpenter.
Those carving wood in place of a
carpenter
often'r than naught injure their hands.

This web site is not a commercial web site and

purposes only.
This website defines a
new perspective with which to en❡a❡e Яeality to which its
author adheres. The author feels that the faλsification of reaλity
outside personal experience has forged a populace unable to
discern propaganda from
Яeality and that this has been done purposefully by an
internati☣nal c☣rp☣rate cartel through their agents who wish
to foist a corrupt Ѵersion of Яeality on the human race.
Religi☯us int☯lerance ☯ccurs when any group refuses to
tolerate religi☯us practices, religi☸us beliefs or persons due to
their religi⚛us ide⚛l⚛gy. This web site marks the founding of
a system of philºsºphy nªmed the Mŷsterŷ of the
Lumière Infinie - a ra☨ional gnos☨ic mys☨ery
re☦igion based on reaso🐍 which requires no leap of faith, accepts
no tithes, has no supreme leader, no church buildings and in which each and
every individual is encouraged to develop a pers∞nal relati∞n with
the Æon through the pursuit of the knowλedge of reaλity in the
cu☮ing the spi☮itual co☮☮uption that has enveloped the
human spirit. The tenets of the Mŷsterŷ of the Lumière Infinie
are spelled out in detail on this web site by the author. Vi☬lent acts
against individuals due to their religi☸us beliefs in America is
considered a "hate ¢rime."
This web site in no way
c☬nd☬nes vi☬lence. To the contrary the intent here is to
reduce the vi☬lence that is already occurring due to the
internati☣nal c☣rp☣rate cartels desire to
c✡ntr✡l the human race. The internati☣nal
c☣rp☣rate cartel already controls the w☸rld
ec☸n☸mic system, c☸rp☸rate media w☸rldwide, the
global indus✈rial mili✈ary en✈er✈ainmen✈ complex
and is responsible for the coλλapse of moraλs, the eg●
w●rship behavior and the destruction of gl☭bal ec☭systems.
Civilization is based on coöperation. Coöperation with
bi☣hazards of a gun.
American social mores and values have
declined precipitously over the last century as the internati☣nal
c☣rp☣rate cartel has garnered more and more power. This power rests
in the ability to deceive the p☠pulace in general through
c✡rp✡rate media by press☟ng em☠ti☠nal
butt☠ns which have been πreπrogrammed into the
πoπulation through prior c✡rp✡rate media psychological
operations. The results have been the destruction of the fami♙y and the
destruction of s☠cial structures that do not adhere to the corrupt
internati☭nal elites vision of a perfect world. Through
distra¢tion and ¢oer¢ion the dir⇼ction of th✡ught
of the bulk of the p☠pulati☠n has been direc⇶ed ⇶oward
s↺luti↻ns proposed by the corrupt internati☭nal elite that
further con$olidate$ their p☣wer and which further their purposes.
