As the war in Iraq drags on into a fourth brutal year, the same politicians who led the U.S. to war in 2003 are preparing for a new war --this time against the people of Iran.
Once again using the pretext of "weapons of mass destruction," the U.S. is moving the forces into place in preparation for a possible attack. The USS Eisenhower strike force, with some 800 Tomahawk cruise missiles and a fleet of bombers, has moved into the Persian Gulf. A second carrier group, led by the USS Stennis, is now steaming toward the region.  The London Telegraph reported this spring that  "a major American attack on Iran's nuclear sites would kill up to 10,000 people and lead to war in the Middle East." 

The Shocking Truth – Nuclear War With Iran The Talk in Cathedral Square, Christchurch
...People with impeccable credentials have written that the so-called terrorist attack on New York and the Pentagon on Sept 9, 2001 was an inside job. Also, that the so-called al-Qaeda terrorists were really pawns in a much bigger conspiracy, organised by the Bush Administration to create a new enemy and justify their global crusade and wars against terrorism.

Key Points When Lobbying MP's and Others on: (1) Keeping New Zealand Nuclear Free (2) A New Foreign Policy As Neutral Peacemaker
(3) Warning! U.S. War On Iran and “False Flag” Operations -
General objective: To help create a peaceful, prosperous, stable, just world, and solving disputes by peaceful means. Solving alleged ‘terrorist' problems by international cooperation, joint intelligence, and UN sanctioned operations – not by unilateral wars.
As 16 U.S. Intelligence agencies reported, the Iraq war makes more terrorism – not less.
Revised, improved and expanded from an interview with Murray McCulloch,
MP and National Spokesman on Defence and Foreign Affairs

Paul Craig Roberts describes how  pro-war war propaganda has triumphed over truth and rationality the US.
Lies have become the new 'truths' of the Bush regime.
However there is still some some hope that American society will prevail over fascism. The majority of Americans voted against the Republicans in the Nov/06 elections. Also, the polls show declining popularity for Bush and his war policies.
Unfortunately the US public is poorly served with a Bush-dominated mass media. They may be fooled again with some dramatic new lies about Iran hat are intended to gain public support for a war on Iran.

In her historical mystery, “The Daughter of Time,” Josephine Tey (a pen name of Elizabeth MacKintosh), has Scotland Yard Inspector Alan Grant, while confined to his hospital bed, solve the 15th century murder of the two York princes in the Tower of London.  The princes were murdered by Henry VII, and the crime was blamed on Richard III in order to justify the upstart Tudor's violent seizure of the English throne.
They makes the point that if a 20th century mystery writer can detect the truth about a 15th century murder, historians have no excuse to persist in writing in school textbooks that Richard murdered his nephews. British historians remained loyal to the Tudor propaganda long after the Tudors were no longer around to be feared or served.

Dr Leupp provides an excellent analysis of the geopolitical situation and the likelihood that the US will attack Iran in 2007.
However like many other US commentators he doesn't mention Bush's probable use of nuclear weapons, or how Bush may use a 'False Flag' type of attack on the US then blame it on Iran , to justify a war on Iran . An attack would frighten, confuse and probably enflame the US public with increased hatred of Iran , thus gaining their support for the planned war in much the same way as their support was gained for the phoney war on Iraq.

The reaction to the Iraq Study Group (ISG) report suggests that a showdown is shaping up within the U.S. power elite between two different sets of cowboys.
On the one hand, there are the George W. Bush cowboys who want to expand their conquests from Afghanistan and Iraq into Syria and Iran. It's a natural extension of the Manifest Destiny doctrine that underpinned the conquest of the"Wild West," the annexation of almost half of Mexico's territory in the 1840s, the "opening of Japan" resulting from gunboat diplomacy in 1854, the Marines' overthrow of the Hawaiian monarchy in 1893, and the establishment of a colonial empire from the Pacific to the Caribbean following the Spanish-American War.

Castro has done a wonderful job for the Cuban people. They know and appreciate him for it. Somehow he has dodged and/or survived the many US assassination attempts against him. Let us hope the US hasn't invented some new biochemical weapon that could be virtually undetectable and create natural-appearing deaths. Given the huge lead the US has in weapons development in many fields, one cannot logically exclude the possibility of technological advances in US  covert weaponry. Also, we cannot expect news about such hypothetical new weapons, as detection and publicity would tend to nullify the usage and effects of such weapons.

Admire him or despise him, it's tempting to think Fidel Castro keeps a piece of polished Cuban Mahogany in his office with, as of yesterday, six marks on it -- one for each American president he has defied and survived, beginning with Dwight Eisenhower. Every president starting with Ike has presided over plots of various levels of nefariousness against Castro's Cuba, the most notorious being the Kennedy era's botched invasions, exploding clam plots and beard-melting conspiracies. But even the more benign U.S. administrations have maintained the embargo and participated in various other forms of economic subterfuge against the hemisphere's only socialist isle.

As the nation eulogizes President Gerald R. Ford, who died last night in California, no one should lose sight of the fact that it was Ford who helped launch the careers of the two ugliest faces in the George W. Bush administration. Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld. Cheney and Rumsfeld were deep-selected from lower-level positions in the Nixon administration and named as Chief of Staff and Deputy Chief of Staff for Ford's White House.....
Much is being made of Ford's statement in the wake of Nixon's resignation that "our long national nightmare is over." Mr. Ford's elevation of Bush, Sr., Rumsfeld, and Cheney did not end our national nightmare, it merely postponed it until January 20, 2001.

While brilliant and very worthwhile, Marjorie Cohn also neglects to mention the techniques and circumstances the Bush regime may use to start a war with Iran with US public support.  
The result of this kind of failure by many US journalists is a people that will be fooled by a US 'False Flag' against Iran. They will then support a war on Iran because of what they have been fooled into thinking that Iran has done. It is a story of how rational intelligent thinking people can discount and/or dismiss the idea of official chicanery, even though various US Governments and their agencies have a long history of committing various nefarious schemes against other countries and governments.

In 1971, singer Marvin Gaye raised hackles when he tried to make sense of the madness of the Vietnam War by asking, "What's Going On?" ....
The song, told from the perspective of a returning Vietnam veteran, was inspired by Gaye's brother who had recently returned from that disastrous war.
...."The deaths of American soldiers now verges on the criminal."

A number of articles are posted on our website predicting a US war with Iran . And a Google search on this subject showed 104 million articles. Searching "US Nuclear War With Iran" showed 24.7 million articles. Therefore, a lot of very thoughtful people are deeply concerned, and writing about, this subject. And there are many indications that this nightmare will begin soon, just as there were before the illegal US bombing, invasion and occupation of Iraq began in 2003.
The present Bush regime has committed multiple war crimes and violations of the US Constitution. Now, with their backs against the wall, with the "Impeach Bush" movement growing, and with Bush's popularity dropping below 30%, the Bush regime may decide their only way out is to resort to even greater crimes---such as escalating the Iraq War and making a preemptive strike with mini-nukes on Iran.

Back on October 9, I wrote in The Nation that it looked like the Bush-Cheney gang, worried about the November election, was gearing up for an unprovoked attack on Iran's nuclear facilities, with a carrier strike group led by the USS Eisenhower being ordered to depart a month early from Norfolk, VA to join the already-on-station USS Enterprise. That article was based on reports from angry sailors based on the Eisenhower who had leaked word of their mission.
There was, thankfully, no attack on Iran before Election Day, but it is starting to look like I may have been right about the plan after all, but wrong about the timing.

When Generals and Congressmen promote the Faith at the Pentagon for TV it is usually a form of messianic Christianity - the kind that believes in 'End Times' soon, and a new crusade against the unbelievers. No risk is too great nor a new insanity that nutty, that they don't embrace it in their service to the primitive God of War that they fervently believe in.  
Unfortunately that is the message being conveyed to the Islamic world by George Bush and his actual illegal wars and brutal policies toward members of the Islamic faith, and the lies he uses to justify this new Crusade.

It's a delicate and controversial question. Where does freedom to practice religion inside Pentagon offices with high-ranking Defense Department officers, congressmen and other ranking federal officials stop?
Can Army generals in uniform gather with congressmen and federal agency officials to promote the Christian faith in uniform inside the Pentagon while being videotaped by a high-powered religious organization? Can the easily accessible tape, as well as military Christian web sites, be misconstrued by Islamic extremists during wartime?

Here are a few of Bush's new lies in Newsweek, a mainstream US weekly.
However the real continuing lies were not mentioned. Is this because Newsweek likes to pretend these old lies don't count, because so many people still believe them? Or are they too big and sensitive to mention..

In the spirit of holding our political leaders accountable, this year-end review will tabulate the worst lies told by Bush and company, along with several stories that were underreported in the media. Much of what was generated got lost in the fog of war, but the long arm of history will retrieve these moments. As the president said in his news conference this week, if they're still writing about No. 1 - George Washington - there's plenty of time before the historians can properly evaluate No. 43. Judging by the mess in Iraq, it could be 200 or 300 years - if ever - before Bush is vindicated.

Francis Boyle, a law Professor at U of Illinois, is the legal architect of the The Biological Weapons Convention and the Biological Weapons Anti-Terrorism Act of 1989. He has written a vitally important book: Biowarfare and Terrorism by Francis A. Boyle, Clarity Press, Atlanta, Georgia, USAT It is available through: amazon.co.uk or amazon.com for US$12.95. The biological weapons threat to humanity, is as great as the growing nuclear threat as Professor Boyles book shows. Here is a review of that book.

A criminal biological weapons programme that is a threat to the entire planet!
Review: 'Biowarfare and Terrorism' by Francis A Boyle
  Before I even begin to review this 'weapon of critical information', I urge you not only to buy it but when you've finished reading it (it's real short, so it shouldn't overly tax our attention-deficit culture), post it to your MP, Congressman, Senator, the UN, your vicar/priest/imam/holy man/rabbi; give it to your neighbour, teacher, workmate, brother, sister, mum and dad. In short, shout it out from the rooftops; that the US government is an international criminal of staggering proportions and the entire Bush administration should be indicted as war criminals and every last one locked up and the key thrown away.

This is very valuable paper because it shows how influential people and countries are using the terrorist threat to advance their ambitions to make nuclear weapons.
Also, it gives an insight into the origins of American neoconservatism and its American author Leo Strauss, whose mentor was Carl Schmitt, an infamous Nazi law professor under Hitler. Leo Strauss teachings reflected those of his Nazi mentor, and his US students are now highly placed and very influential in formulating American policies under President Bush.

Remember the Nazis had their law professors too. Carl Schmitt was the most  notorious Nazi Law Professor. He was mentor to and sponsor for Leo Strauss,  who founded the Neo-Conservative Movement in the United States. These Neo-Cons are Neo-Nazis. We have many of these Neo-Con Neo-Nazi Law Professors in the United States, almost all of them affiliated with the right-wing, racist, bigoted, reactionary, sexist, warmongering and totalitarian Federalist Society. Scholz should join the Federalist Society.
He would fit right in. ...
A former top German official said yesterday that his country should consider building a nuclear arsenal in response to the threat of nuclear terrorism, Deutsche Presse-Agentur reported today.

There was no civil war in Iraq before.  But by using what is known as "The Salvador Option" (described below by James Brook) the US rapidly turned their illegal war on Iraq  into the civil war it is today.
The technique, used many times by the US before, particularly in South America , involves employing death squads to masquerade as the militia of the dominant faction, or as police under the direction of that faction, and murder assigned targets on the victim side.

‘Everyone in town is talking “surge” now,’ a Pentagon adviser explained to NPR listeners the other day, and you could almost feel the country buckle up its mind for another bloody disaster ahead. One big “final” push to defeat the popular resistance of the Iraqi people. Just to see if we can do it, before we leave. It probably won’t work, but it’s worth a try.’

Considering the war is both preplanned and based on lies, it is a robbery on a gigantic scale. Will Bush and his collaborators get away with this $trillion gigantic fraud, and the totally unjustified mass killing of 655,000 Iraqi people and 3,000 unwitting US Servicemen who believe they are doing their duty?

When America invaded Iraq in 2003, the Bush administration predicted that the war would turn a profit, paying for itself with increased oil revenues. So far, though, Congress has spent more than $350 billion on the conflict, including the $50 billion appropriated for 2007.

This video game equates killing unbelievers with Christian morality and teachings. The game implies that it is virtuous, Christian, ethical and spiritual to vaporize in a puff of smoke anyone who does not share the destructive religious delusions of far right Fundamentalist Christians. Fundamentalists claim they are reaching out in a spirit of love to the unbelievers, so that unbelievers have a chance to convert to the one true faith, rather than be 'left behind' in the great rapture of true believers to Heaven.

Left Behind: Eternal Forces allows you to command the tribulation force, uncover the truth about worldwide disappearances, and save as many people as possible from the antichrist.

Americans have had four years of unjustified, illegal war for no legitimate reason or excuse. Constantly they have been bombarded by a litany of lies, war propaganda, and pro-war commentators, and democratic politicians repeating these lies.
War is the new neocon -generated reality for many Americans.

The Bush Administration is hooked on the drug of military might, with Gates calling for sending more troops to a war we can't win. Here we go again: A new secretary of defense and yet another call for ending the war in Iraq by escalating it. What are they smoking in the Bush White House?

Even before he was elected in 2000, Bush and his neocons were planning wars of aggression based on lies.
However, as Bush and his collaborators are the most powerful regime in the world, it's unlikely he will ever be prosecuted by the World Court, or impeached for crimes against the US Constitution by a US court. Bush has openly sneered at international law and discarded or ignored all international treaties that interfere with his illegal wars and nuclear armaments objectives.

The crime of a war of aggression is listed in Article 5.1 of the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court (RSICC) as one of the four most serious crimes of concern to the international community, and that it falls within the jurisdiction of the International Criminal Court (ICC). It was addressed earlier by the International Military Tribunal at Nuremberg following World War II , which called the waging of aggressive war "essentially an evil thing...to initiate a war of aggression...is not only an international crime; it is the supreme international crime differing only from other war crimes in that it contains within itself the accumulated evil of the whole."

The following article shows a few of the lies upon which the Iraq war is based. Amazingly, some people still believe these lies even though they have been exposed as concocted to justify the war. Even more amazing is that this US-created massacre not only continues, but gets worse in spite of the known lies. The mass media have embraced the lies as their own. To my knowledge, they have never admitted they acted for the Bush Administration in relaying these lies to their readers.

Options After the Deconstruction of Iraq

Wars of aggression are the most barbarous of all human endeavors.
[1] They are, more often than not, the instruments of insane tyrants who hear voices. Wars are also waged by warlike gambling leaders who bet their citizens' lives, houses and treasure to fulfill their own megalomaniac dreams of grandeur.

This is one of the best sites for the scientific investigation of the 9/11 attacks on World Trade Centre and the Pentagon. It separates truth from fiction and documents what is probably the largest conspiracy in human history, and one which has the most serious consequences for humanity.
Because it is so horrific and from many perspectives seems improbable, impossible and even ridiculous, people tend to dismiss 9/11 alternative explanations without serious consideration of any of the evidence or questions raised. See also: 9/11 U.S. Attack Evidence

George Monbiot describes "total sensory deprivation" a US technique of torture that often makes prisoners like Jose Padilla lose their minds. Jose Padilla, a US  citizen detained as an "enemy combatant" and suspected of planning to detonate a dirty bomb, was imprisoned for 3 years without any charge being laid against him. He was subjected to "total sensory deprivation”. Now...."his mind is no longer there" Monbiot wrote.
...Remember, with pre-emptive nuclear war millions can be killed in hours. The world, if it continues, will be irreparably damaged for all the time that remains.

In the fight against cruelty, barbarism and extremism, America has embraced the very evils it claims to confront.
After thousands of years of practice, you might have imagined that every possible means of inflicting pain had already been devised. But you should never underestimate the human capacity for invention. United States interrogators, we now discover, have found a new way of destroying a human being.

I repeat this quote from Adolph Hitler because it seems so relevant to the tactics today of the Bush Administration. The reactions of people are much the same. It's as if nothing was learned since the Hitlerian techniques were successfully used on the German people. Why?  They may be fooled again, particularly if Bush and co unleash a 'False Flag' op, followed up with a well-planned campaign of lies, blame, pro-war propaganda and war on the accused, for the phoney alleged "False Flag" terrorist attack on the US. 

Chris Floyd has written one of the great papers of our age. In a few pages he expresses the steps in the decline of US Constitutional Law; the US rise of fascist-type legislation; and why we should not expect much improvement from the new 'democratically-controlled' Senate and Congress.
I'll add a few thoughts to Floyd's brilliant analysis.

.... We have seen the proof of this in our time. When law - understood here as agreed-upon principles of justice and commonweal - is treated as a filthy rag or a "quaint" relic or a cynical sham by those in power, the result is an ever-growing suppuration of greed, lies, brutality and violence.

It's almost 4 years since John Pilger wrote this article, yet all his predictions and observations have come true. ...  Pilger's observation that the Bush regime is the "Third Reich of our times' is so very apt today.

William Russell, the great correspondent who reported the carnage of imperial wars, may have first used the expression "blood on his hands" to describe impeccable politicians who, at a safe distance, order the mass killing of ordinary people.
In my experience "on his hands" applies especially to those modern political leaders who have had no personal experience of war, like George W Bush, who managed not to serve in Vietnam, and the effete Tony Blair.

The following is a great resource for people looking for authoritative articles on US war plans, policies and related issues. Professor Chossudovsky is only one of many top analysts and writers featured.
I suggest that readers look through the many articles offered by Global Research.ca

The entire Middle East Central Asian region is on a war footing.

This is an excellent statement and action we can use in New Zealand to help Americans stop another unjust, illegal war by the Bush Administration against a non-nuclear state. I hope NZ labour unions, groups and individuals will take advantage of this fine initiative.

The following resolution, opposing U.S. military action and threats against Iran, was passed unanimously by the San Francisco Labor Council.  
This is an important victory for antiwar activists in the labor movement.  Let's keep the momentum going --We encourage you to work to get similar resolutions passed in your unions, Labor Councils, City Councils, churches, schools, student governments, clergy associations, tenant organizations, community groups, etc.  Send us copies of the resolutions you pass--ALL these resolutions will be posted on Stop War on Iran web site. (Send them to resolutions@stopwaroniran.org.) Help build a movement to stop a war on Iran:

...Hitler's Reichstag fire was a successfully planned 'False Flag' event.  The neoconservative soul of the Bush Administration has shown itself very capable of planning similar 'False Flag' events. Many think they have already demonstrated how they can make history and orchestrate their new deceitful 'truths' to suit, with the phoney  9/11 attack. Their litany of lies to justify their continuing illegal war on Iraq is another good example of their artful Machiavellian deceptions.

...The fact that more is being said about fascism in America indicates that a thorough and ongoing debate is now in order. Yet discussions of this sort will inevitably take us into a virtual minefield, especially given the commonplace perception of fascism as a form of totalitarianism that occurred in the past and can never happen again....

Here is another piece of the 9/11 puzzle. That Pakistan Intelligence financed the 9/11 hijackers. That the newly appointed head of the CIA Porter Goss, knew this and had close links with Pakistan intelligence. If 9/11 was a Bush Administration 'inside job', Porter Goss must have been privy to, or part, of that operation. No wonder Bush appointed him to head the CIA with overall control of a budget of 40 billion dollars for intelligence operations? For those who have studied 9/11 and concluded it must have been a Bush Administration conspiracy, the attached article by Prof. Chossudovsky makes sense and is an important part of the conspiracy.

Two weeks before 9/11, Porter Goss, the White House nominee for the CIA Director of Intelligence was being "briefed on the growing threat of al Qaeda" (WP, 5/04/03) by a Pakistani General who "ran a spy agency notoriously close to Osama bin Laden and the Taliban. "
Following George Tenet's resignation as Director of Central Intelligence at the CIA, the Bush administration immediately pointed to Rep. Porter Goss, as its handpicked nominee.
Porter Goss, a Florida Republican and former CIA operative, is chairman of the House Intelligence Committee. He also chaired, together with Senator Bob Graham, the Joint Senate House Committee, on the September 11 attacks.

This article is particularly good because of its analysis of the Washington establishment, the probable result of the Iraq Study Group, and comments about permanent U.S. bases in Iraq, and the amazing abdication of responsibility by the Mass Media of honest coverage of the war.
On the other hand the predictions could be wrong if the Bush Administration implements its plan to make war on Iran, and escalates that into a nuclear war on Iran, leading to a general war on Islamic countries.
The possible use of a 'False Flag' operation by the Bush Administration, to incriminate Iran and justify using nuclear weapons, must also be considered.

Will Papa Bush's Old Pals Prolong the Iraq Occupation?

While everyone in Washington is treating Bush Senior's ally Robert Gates' Pentagon arrival and James Baker's Iraq Study Group report as godsends that will end the war in Iraq, it's quite likely that they will deploy more troops and stay there indefinitely.

It is sickening to think thousands of mainly innocent victims have  been kidnapped by the U.S. and clandestinely transported to prisons in countries ruled by dictatorial regimes. There they are subjected to torture until they confess. These so-called confessions are usually worthless, because they are made to stop the torture. As the following article points out, the majority of victims are unaccounted for. They are believed to have been either murdered or disappeared. The Bush regime may extend and increase this practice, especially if it starts a new war on Iran. New legislation may allow Bush to apply this practice to domestic U.S. dissenters and critics of the Bush regime. At the moment the American political system and the people, seem unable to rid America of the terrorist monsters in the White House.

More than 7,000 prisoners have been captured in America's war on terror. Just 700 ended up in Guantanamo Bay. Between extraordinary rendition to foreign jails and disappearance into the CIA's "black sites", what happened to the rest?

There is much data on Kelly's death that suggests  he died due to foul play, rather than suicide. As the BBC repeats government lies about Iraq, and reflects it's false assumptions and views, I hope their investigative programme is not a whitewash.

THE BBC is risking a new confrontation with Downing Street by launching an investigation into the death of David Kelly, the scientist at the centre of the storm over the “sexed up” dossier on Iraq's supposed weapons of mass destruction.

A few weeks ago Congress passed laws which legalised the U.S. use of torture on so-called terrorism suspects At first there was some debate and resistance to Bush's torture bill. But the Senate and Congress quickly caved in and gave Bush what he wanted. Now torture is legal. For the time being it is mainly kept secret and done by U.S.-sponsored dictatorships, or client regimes in other countries. Main stream U.S. media carefully avoid the subject so a lot of Americans don't know how much about it. The following article shows how torture is becoming incorporated into American life. It is a reflection of the psychopathology of George Bush. As long as Bush remains in office, we can expect a growth in this foul and degrading practice.

Is torture an acceptable tactic to use in the war against terror?
The Bush Administration recently acknowledged that some forms of coercion are being used by American agents against suspected terrorists. But human rights advocates say the U.S. is actively supporting the use of more extreme techniques. And the people who are involved are making regular visits to Las Vegas.

This review of 'WITH GOD ON OUR SIDE was on an Amazon list of books and films offered for sale. It was one of the 3 million articles available from a Google search of 'MORGAN REYNOLDS'. Morgan worked most of his life in Washington and occupied many government positions. He is also professor emeritus of Texas University. He has researched and written extensively on 9/11 questions. I think most people would judge it very worthwhile if they Googled 'MORGAN REYNOLDS' and read some of his work. The power and ascendancy of the Fundamentalist Right, documented in the book reviewed below, will be of interest to those wishing to preserve our religious freedoms.

WITH GOD ON OUR SIDE is as invaluable a documentary as FAHRENHEIT 9/11 or BUSH FAMILY FORTUNES: THE BEST DEMOCRACY MONEY CAN BUY

....The U.S. Democrats who have just won in Congress and the Senate are unlikely to stop this war as they are deeply involved in approving the Iraq war, and either repeating or not questioning Bush lies to justify it. They are doing the same thing about the new U.S. enemy - Iran . They have also approved Bush's new nuclear doctrines, his patriot laws, his preparations for the Iran war and given him virtually unlimited power. The Democrats have proved themselves to be a weak, lily-livered and wishy-washy opposition party unwilling and unable to speak the truth about the Bush Administration and the illegal wars. There are a few exceptional and honest Democratic politicians who oppose U.S. war policies, but not enough to make much difference.

In mid 1970s the American Power Elite drew a “Grand Plan” to control and to monopolize global oil and nuclear energy resources, for he who controls energy resources determines the fate of nations. The base of this “Grand Plan” is the invasion of energy rich countries to directly control their resources, and to create subservient governments that would exploit their own people as cheap labor to harvest energy for the United States.
The collapse of the Soviet Union had created a window of opportunity for the United States to ensure and to affirm its global superiority through expansion and controlling energy resources without any real opposition. The attacks of 911 were necessary requirements for the Bush administration to wage a “global war against terror” that would serve as a cover up for American hegemony. President Bush borrowed Mussolini's fascist motto of “If you are not with me, you are against me” and turned it into “You are either with us or with the terrorist” to terrorize weaker nations into accepting American expansions.

The American people have been deceived and shanghaied into becoming tools of a criminal conspiracy...
What has happened to our U.S.A. that was a beacon of hope to the world's impoverished, oppressed masses? It could have led in solving the world's real problems and led humanity toward a secure, prosperous, and just world.
Instead it took another road - the road of evil and the blackest fascism and mass murder. The conspiracy has even increased its genocidal preparations with new nuclear doctrines that 'legally' allow it to wage pre-emptive nuclear slaughter of people, not by the thousand as in Iraq , but now by the million in Iran and elsewhere. The compliant mass propaganda media made sure this information, its implications, and criticism of it, was not given to the people.

My Lai , Vietnam , 1968. Haditha , Iraq , 2005. Rumsfeld, Cheney and Bush hate it when anyone mentions these two events — these two war crimes — in the same breath. All the more reason to examine them closely, to see that they have the same basis that they spell out the same lesson.

The U.S. has gone to considerable lengths to set up a situation in the UN where it can claim UN approval to legally use nuclear weapons against Iran.
Professor Hirsch shows how this was done. Although it may not have been the intention of any state other than Israel to give such approval for any such action, the U.S. has an objective and a plan - and that plan includes making war on Iran . All kinds of dupliciity, chicanery and pressure has been used to achieve this end, so that they can actually argue that the UN resolution and sanctions against Iran gave them approval to use force against Iran - even nuclear weapons.

A Legal US Nuclear Attack Against Iran The real reason for the IAEA Iran resolution

On September 24 of this year, the United States finally achieved a goal it had persistently pursued over several years. Iran was declared by the IAEA (International Atomic Energy Agency) to be in "non compliance" with its obligations under the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT). The resolution passed by the IAEA is remarkably weak. It does not set a date for Iran to be referred to the UN Security Council, and it does not even mention the possibility of sanctions. It even notes that Iran has made "good progress" in correcting its "breaches," all of which date back to before October 2003. The LA Times characterized it as a " gentle slap ." It is instead an enormous thud.

. . . Dissent and criticism of Bush will become non-existent, both because the media will suppress it and because people will be unwilling to express criticism and risk imprisonment, torture and jail.
If events unfold as now indicated, it will be a triumph of dedicated and diabolical evil, employing all the instruments of ultimate force and deception, backed by millions of duped and fearful Americans and the huge wealth and government apparatus of the state.

OLBERMANN PROPERLY NAMES BUSH AS AMERICA'S GREATEST THREAT

Mr Bush, your words are lies that imperil us all ~ Sadly, of course , the distance of history will recognize that the threat this generation of Americans needed to take seriously was you: Keith Olbermann
. . . This President now has his blank check.
He lied to get it.
He lied as he received it.
Is there any reason to even hope, he has not lied about how he intends to use it, nor who he intends to use it against?

This is one of the most important papers we have ever re-printed, by a world authority on U.S. nuclear war policies, and U.S. plans to wage nuclear war on Iran . Michel Chossudovsky details the various nuclear war doctrines that are an integral part of Pentagon military options. No longer do the U.S. military consider nuclear weapons 'a weapon of last resort', likely to lead to escalation and an end to humanity.
Today they literally, have learned to 'love the bomb' and have radically changed past perceptions so that nuclear weapons have become just one of a number of military options military commanders may use in various battle situations. They allow the U.S. to suddenly launch a preemptive nuclear strike against a chosen enemy. The enemy may be non-nuclear or nuclear. Also, they claim the right to introduce nuclear weapons use into conventional military conflicts.

Is the Bush Administration Planning a Nuclear Holocaust?

Will the US launch "Mini-nukes" against Iran in Retaliation for Tehran's "Non-compliance"?
At no point since the first atomic bomb was dropped on Hiroshima on August 6th, 1945, has humanity been closer to the unthinkable, a nuclear holocaust which could potentially spread, in terms of radioactive fallout,  over a large part of the Middle East.
All the safeguards of the Cold War era, which categorized the nuclear bomb as "a weapon of last resort" have been scrapped. "Offensive" military actions using nuclear warheads are now described as acts of "self-defense".
