RULE OF LAW AND POLITICAL PRISONERS
 There is a reason why I modified the use of the word "prisoners" with "political," I am talking about people wasting away in prisons in the United States for no other reason except political purposes. Throughout the prisons, which are expanding at an exponential rate in America, you will find specific prisoners of political war which are moderately known, and a vast majority which staggers the imagination incarcerated by institutional policy. Many sit in prison on trumped up charges that have nothing to do with the party imprisoned, and some are caught in the dragnet of political use of the judicial system through general policy. A government that is supposed to be for the people and by the people has devolved into an enemy of the people, and instead of being the land of opportunity American has become a veritable police state.  The people duly elected in both of the houses, the judicial system, and those in the administrative branch are like the Mafia. They allow areas to become dead zones by policies of neglect and principles of abandonment. They have turned once great cities into ghetto's by catering to their bastard children, the corporations - who use and abuse areas to build a profitable base only to abandon these areas. The governments, both local, regional, and national have given these corporations free passes from any direct responsibility - than the representatives further turn their backs on their poor constituency, and they woo them with fabrications and lies giving them temporary relief for political expedience.  The only things they do for people in these areas (above) is build prisons for them, and than they toughen the law by the stroke of a pen, making everything a felony. They bring drugs into the areas by their partnerships in crime, and than herd the people into their prisons so these vultures called corporations can feed off their slave labor. Why do they do this? Because they have no intention of building viable alternatives, helping to create employment, and preserving an area so it is fit for families to thrive.  So far we have been talking about those broad policies which are used through the established institutions to entrap millions of people - we now have the distinction of the largest prison population in the world - over 2 million people incarcerated! Than there are those brave souls which care for what is taking place, and try to lead the people out of these traps - the targeted political prisoners. Those like Leonard Peltier, Mumia Abu Jamal, Sami Al-Arian (our new prisoners of the "war on Terror") among the host of names. Any effective method of freeing, or attempting to free people from their oppression is met by imprisonment. These men and women sit rotting in a cell, which I guess is better than assassination.  (Sami Al-Arian, a political prisoner of the "war on Terror") So the question is what can we do about it? It has been going on so long and the opponents are so strong - I know all the excuses, they have played like an endless loop recording in my mind. Until we come to the conclusion that we will not stand for it any longer, and until we get up and get in the face of these officials - nothing will take place. Until millions of people march to the same tune and flood the streets with protest saying - WE ARE NOT GOING TO ALLOW THIS ANY LONGER, YOU ARE GOING TO HAVE TO LOCK US UP ALSO!! Until we stop asking for permission, and we stop playing by their perverted rules nothing of consequence can happen. When we hang our bodies on the line, and say enough is enough, that will be the beginning of the end for these oppressors.  We are not satisfied by their paltry affordable housing - we are not pleased with no health care net - and we will not allow viable jobs to continue to vacate while informal employment is proffered in their place. There is no room for compromise, and if you think there is, you are already defeated! We cannot settle for spoken good intentions which will NEVER materialize, but these unlucky people who sold their souls presently functioning in government of all levels will be put on notice - we will not stop till all the apparatus to oppress is torn down, and a TRUE government by the people, and for the people will rise again! It will take more than a designer protest, burning of candles, cute poetic chants - it will take hardened resistance on a massive scale, and an aggression that will not stop at the shedding of blood. Your brothers and sisters wait for you in their prison cells. "Extremism in the pursuit of freedom is no vice, and moderation in the pursuit of justice is no virtue!"

 We have here a meeting of the mindless, Olmert and Bush, not because they are stupid (although there has been some speculation about Bush), but mindless because they both entertain delusions - somewhat different but intimately intertwined. Hence the title, Dual Delusions.
 Both of these administrations are born of deceit, one who lied and now hundreds of thousands have died (Bush), and the other who feigns that he wants "peace" in the Middle East (actually, they both say this constantly) but instead we have nothing but the escalation of violence. Yet, since the time of their fateful meeting they have not only lied and deceived, but are now both equally self-deceived - they believe in strange and dangerous delusions.
 Since the time of their meeting both Bush and Olmert have had an epiphany! They have come to the realization that it is complete and total violence that is needed - so that they might cast their cares like two children who cast rocks into the sea. Of course, there is no peace plan, I am being sarcastic - only a plan of beating people into senseless submission to their design. Their recent victim being Lebanon, Iraq now the seasoned standby, and perhaps next Iran, all countries that do not deserve this wanton death and destruction.
 What warms the heart of every tried and true Zionist is either genocidal toward the Palestinians, or driving them out of the region - or into the sea if you like. So, the deadly delusion that Olmert clings to is that if he kills enough of those in the region who support the Palestinians, he can cause the Palestinians to fall limp to the ground having lost support through the destruction of their supporters - to completely destroy their hope. Plus, the other prong of this long fork is that he will please the United States, and receive more money for further aggression. However, the apple of Olmert's eye is the destruction of the Palestinians by whatever means necessary (and who knows where they will go from there). 
Bush's ultimate delusion (and the entire government in power) Is to hold ultimate sway over the Middle East and it's resources, i.e., oil - the "new Middle East." Like an unchecked animal he wants to destroy current non-compliant states in the region, and set up compliant and puppet rulers. Look at Iraq, that is his design for the entire region.
 The deaths of millions is of no consequence, the end justifies the means. It does not matter if the "job" is finished or in trouble in previous escapades, he must up the ante like a severely hooked gambler at the gambling table. Israel is merely a tool for his design in this region, and he has a desire for it to be secure so it can be used in the future as the immediate hand of imperial design.
 So we have dual and intersecting delusions taking place. The Palestinians become more uneasy and violent rather than falling limp to the ground with their hope crushed. Israel has now experiencing sound defeat in the battlefield, rather than a seamless victory. Iraq is about to explode rather than becoming a compliant state, and Iran even though it does not have a nuclear weapon must now rush to design one for self-preservation! WHILE ALL THESE SIGNS POINT TO FURTHER DISASTER, BOTH ISRAEL AND THE UNITED STATES CONTINUE THEIR MURDEROUS COURSE TOWARD SUICIDE CASTING THEIR JAUNDICED EYES TOWARD SYRIA AND IRAN. NOW THE SPECTER OF "LIMITED TACTICAL NUCLEAR WEAPONS" RAISES IT'S UGLY HEAD - PEOPLE, ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!! THERE HAS TO BE A COMPLETE HOUSE CLEANING IN BOTH ISRAEL AND THE UNITED STATES - AND I MEAN BOTH CONVENTIONAL PARTIES IN THE UNITED STATES, AND CLEAR DESIGN AND DIRECTION TOWARD PEACE RATHER THAN DESTRUCTIVE DELUSIONS. MORE DELUSIONS

 Unfortunately TV is a mass media instrument, it is fed intravenously into the population. Information has been reduced to split seconds of time, and packed within those short moments is the impact of pervasive communication.
What sticks in the mind is what is spoken or displayed within those nanoseconds, so a short phrase can lambaste an entire population - especially when it is being portrayed rather poorly in the first place (generally speaking), and other institutions follow suit. What will stay is a charged image, this is what is done by expert communications - think of the political realm.
Let's use the term "flip-flop," as applied to John Kerry. One small phrase can prejudice the entire life long achievement of an individual. However, people like Kerry get multiple chances up to bat - this may be these girls only chance at limelight, and it has been besmirched by a bigot. Let alone the hard work of a dedicated woman who has been perfecting her coaching for decades (C. Vivian Stringer) - her moment of truth, she recruits "nappy-headed ho's"...

For four consecutive nights, the Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) have invaded Balata Refugee Camp on the outskirts of Nablus (Palestine). They drove up and down the camp, threw percussion grenades and fired randomly at residents' homes.
This is not a new habit of the IOF, but something they've kept doing for many years already. It's important to note that this is not an exception, but normality in Balata Refugee Camp.

NEOCOLONIALISM 101, EXAMPLE ZIMBABWE
 When one thinks of colonialism one sees occupation forces, invading armies putting down "insurrections" (think Iraq), the wanton murder of civilians in the streets by foreign powers, and the wholesale robbery plain for all who have eyes to see. However, there is now another form of oppression in vogue, after years of resistance from indigenous populations they are said to have won their "freedom."
Whereupon rather than the previous invading forces of colonialism being present in the classical sense, there is a systemic servility imposed, and much more subtle techniques used so that the previous colonial interest can be realized - it still has devastating effects upon the previous colonial object. This is called Neocolonialism, and today we are going to look at it in all it's inglorious splendor, having reached it's apex as part of globalization.
Neocolonialism is the structure embedded in the newly "free" country, which locks all of the doors of the country's prosperity from the inside out, that is, it makes the prosperity of the former colonial enterprise subservient to a system which does not have the interest of the people at heart. What it does is further enrich the former colonial perpetrators.
When this is ruptured by an democratically elected ruler, who has the interest of the people in mind, it unleashes an array of damaging acts meant to bring the country back under the thumb of it's colonial rulers. This can be displayed by looking at Zimbabwe as an example, and it's current president Robert Mugabe. What we are going to look at can be used as a template for what takes place all over the world in the neocolonial nightmare, it is by no means exhaustive but is meant to give you a taste of what the Euro-American enterprise is involved in all over the globe.
Some colonial history is necessary in regard to Zimbabwe, which was formerly the colonial prize of the UK, than called Rhodesia. The history is so twisted and sordid with exploitation and forced labor with pauperism that one could go on forever.
Named after Cecil Rhodes the rabid colonist and racist for his own interest, who built his financial empire on blood diamonds - they were blood diamonds whether you look under the current condition or the original colonial state. Rhodes used his British South African Company with it's own paramilitary force to control Matabeleland and Mashonaland which is present day Zimbabwe. Think of this the next time you want to honor a "Rhodes scholar."
 (1965) Where the present contention lies is in Mugabe taking back land that was stolen by the Rhodes gang in the 1890's, it was taken by force and each soldier that was a participant was given 9 square miles of territory. Of course, this land is the present bone of contention (but not the only one) in Zimbabwe.
For the stupid multitudes that believe that there is starvation in this country because of the land grab, you need to go back to the drawing board, because these farms produced "cash crops" like tobacco, and had nothing at all to do with food that sustained the people. So over 70% of the arable land belonged to 4,500 white farmers who were descendant's of the British settlers.
(picking cotton on white farm land)
It was the land and Mugabe's desire to give back this land to land-poor indigenous population that caused his head on collision with the neocolonial machine empowered by Western governments. A good portion of the farm land was held by absentee landowners, many the Lord's in jolly ol' England.
Because of the aggravated reasoning of the colonial thievery Mugabe had legislation passed that took back 1500 white farms without compensation. It was at this point, in the words of Zimbabwe's foreign minister Stan Mudenge - "all hell broke loose." Suddenly Zimbabwe's President Mugabe, who was democratically elected by a firm majority, became a "fraud and a horrible dictator."
 The imperialist Royal African Society meets in 1999, and their topic is "Zimbabwe - Time for Mugabe to go?" So the neocolonial grinding machine starts it's engine recommending - a military coup, buying the opposition, insurrection, subverting Mugabe's party. Washington get's into the ring a few months later sporting the "Zimbabwe Crisis."
NGO's are marshalled, and their job is to foment discontent and become the conduit for monies to unseat the president. They encourage people to take to the streets and have rallies and foment discontent and further unrest. Sanctions are applied and threats of bombings, all of this is supposed to make the people rise against the democratically elected government led by Robert Mugabe.
Everything is done to effect the people, so that everything bad they are experiencing is reflected by these foreign influences toward the government. In the end of this sordid affair brought on by the neocolonial machine the people are supposed to undo their own government.
All governments that pose a revolutionary alternative get the same treatment, the people are stirred up to give the "natural effect," and the questions about electoral fraud begin to fly. President Bush signed the "Zimbabwe Democracy and Recovery Act" in December 2001, this empowers the President under the US Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 to "support democratic institutions, the free press and independent media" in Zimbabwe.
So suddenly these "home grown democratic movements" end up with all sorts of expensive paraphernalia to push their movement. Such as the Zvalawana movement in Zimbabwe - flashy stickers, phone cards, video's and audio, etc. In other words, they are armed with more than radical movements in the west have, their money comes from foreign hostile sources.
 Suddenly, all over the radios and TV's Zimbabwe's government, primarily Mugabe becomes the monster - the volume is turned up really high in the UK. Of course all of these sources are supposed to be democratic, inside and outside of the country all speaking against the government - so what is that supposed to make the Zimbabwe government? You guessed it, undemocratic.
When this is done during election time, as in the last election, and the opposition still loses than that is supposed to put the election into question - as during the 2005 elections. The reason why many of the oppositions tactics have not worked is because Mugabe's regime will not put up with subversion from within.
Take for instance, NGO's which actually work as a fifth column for foreign interest - they must divulge their financing, this cuts them off almost immediately. Media, like CNN which works for foreign interest is not allowed to report from inside of Zimbabwe. People scream that this is not democratic, but this opposition is clearly financed by hostile sources, so the point is moot.
To say that Zimbabwe's ills do not come from drought is patently false, particularly since the country is agriculturally based, especially in light of this phenomena happening all over the region. As I said previously, land redistribution did not destroy Zimbabwe's agricultural source, IT WAS DESTROYED BY WHITE AGRICULTURAL CASH CROPS SUCH AS TOBACCO!
To say that sanctions have not destroyed the economy is equally ridiculous, sanctions are not economically neutral. They disrupt assistance to the country, disrupt the flow of trade and cut off investment prospects. The sanctions cannot be isolated in the government, it hurts and can even kill people.
Once again for some emphasis and elaboration, why does the West want Mugabe out? Remember, you can almost use this as a template for all neocolonial activity in other nations. Neocolonial's always want to uproot the policies of revolutionary governments, and they want to replace them with their own repressive policies.
There are five reasons they want to oust him, and none of them have to do with humanitarian reasons. First, Mugabe got rid of IMF (International Monetary Fund) policies in the 90's, because all they were doing was impoverishing the people to pay a debt through currency devaluation, reduction of social programs, and all this to pay debt at any human cost.
 (IMF vultures Africa) Mugabe has also shown signs of resistance to Western design in nearby countries. He has sent troops into the Congo that have frustrated the will of Anglo alliance.
Mugabe's economic policies are not compatible with neo-liberal policies. Recently he announced the nationalization of the diamond mines, now this is a real problem for western powers, nationalization and enrichment of the people. It gets rid of the darling of privatization, that is, all the money going into the pockets of an elite foreign few.
He has demanded that a portion of the earnings be reinvested in the country, and places this as a performance requirement on foreign investors. As an example, they are required to invest in government bonds - this really makes them blow their stacks!
 Fouth reason, British companies dominate Zimbabwe's country, and the British governments and banks want to protect their investments. Neocolonialism lives in the domination of the country through the corporations and the investments, they want a ruler in power who will look after their interests no matter how much it destroys the people! Mugabe is not their man, and he will never be their man and they know it.
The fifth and final reason they want Mugabe out is, they do not want other neighboring countries to get the idea that they can be independent and help their people prosper - they take it as a bad example. Imagine if the other countries took up the same process - why, Africa after a period of time might be free and independent!
As you can see there is neocolonial and neo-liberal interest all over Africa, they have it sliced up like a pie. People in America wonder why there is so much unrest in the world, well, you got a taste of it above, and you can apply it like a template all over the world.
THERE IS NO INTENT AMONG THE EURO-AMERICAN ALLIANCE TO HAVE SOME FORM OF EGALITARIAN GLOBALISM, THEY WANT TO ACCELERATE THE SLAVERY OF THE THIRD WORLD, THEY WANT TO PUT THEIR DIVESTMENT AND DESTRUCTION ON THE FAST TRACK! THIS IS WHAT YOU ARE DEALING WITH IN YOUR GOVERNMENTS, THIS IS HOW THEY OPERATE, AND IT IS TIME FOR THE PEOPLE TO WAKE UP AND PUT A HALT TO THIS MURDEROUS PROCESS!

 Perhaps the most insidious way to perpetrate a lie is to institutionalize it, that is, giving the veneer of respectability by making it something that everyone participates in and supports. People give their whole lives to institutions and their growth, going to their grave with a smile on their faces believing that they have contributed to the betterment of mankind.
Take for instance, our school system - what a noble career, to try to mold young minds to face the rigors of life. What if the structure of the institution enslaves people rather than furthering their lives, what if it is filled with lies and half-truths that prejudice the young mind? What if it is meant to make one a pliant model citizen, and removes all form of critical thinking from the process of "education?" What if it raises a people who are docile in the face of atrocities committed by it's so called leaders? Yes, this is what we have come to in America.
(We don't need no education, by salihguler, at Deviant Art)
WE DON'T NEED NO EDUCATION What would happen if you suddenly became aware of the fact that there is no rule of law, that it was a ruse, merely and extension of the divine right of kings? That the enumeration of "laws" was merely a convenient way to alienate you from your rights? That there was no rule of law because it was not universally applicable, and only a choice few could gainsay this code? That the usurpation of individual sovereignty that is absorbed by the state means you do not live in a democracy, but some form of plutocracy?
What if suddenly you realized that the idea of representative government is a joke, and that your representatives did not listen to you or the average person they were supposed to represent? That instead they only listened to the powerful as represented in corporations? That there was no one who would go to bat for you, like the mythical Mr. Smith in Washington?
What if you began to see that your elected representatives did not have your best interest in heart? That all of the protections and benefits that you fought so hard for were systematically being removed? So that suddenly you found yourself out on the street with no remedy, left to the cruel elements?
 What if you found out that all of the wars that have been fought, one's that you might have participated in were for the only purpose of enriching the select few? That as time went on it became more and more obvious to you that the only people who benefit in a war are the rich which you cannot find on the battlefield? That all wars did was squander the money of the people so that a few corporations could make out like bandits (literally)?
(Rupert Lees, Blind)
BLINDWhat would happen if you suddenly saw extra-constitutional agencies, clandestine, suddenly arrayed together at home, under the guise of the protection of the people? That those "rights" which every American claims to possess are stricken from their column? That the very core of their defense against a despotic government, habeas corpus, was summarily removed? That suddenly you found yourself with no privacy, and that you were being watched from almost every quarter - indeed, you find yourself in a virtual panopticon?
WHAT WOULD YOU DO?Indeed, that is the question (above), what would you do? Well I have news for you, what I have just elaborated is the truth. Is this the country you want? If you can't see it than you are blind, it's coming at you like a freight train full speed.
It is time for a reckoning in the Capitol by the people, and I am not talking about a token march where you burn candles and chant, this literally is an all out war. Not only are the people domestically being divested, but this administration is not satisfied with the illegal wars it has started nor the hundreds of thousands it has killed - it is clogging the Persian Gulf with war ships preparing to bomb Iran. You elected leaders have not listened to you, they have been virtual partners in all that I have written above, you have a rogue government in rebellion to the people.

 We stand on the edge of another tragedy, battleships have amassed in the Persian Gulf. This is going on, I would venture to say, against the will of most of the people in the United States and England. Yet, in the States, the same words are being used that took us into what all see as the debacle in Iraq. It is like a repeat of a defunct movie, yet a good portion of the people sit down and listen to it, many embrace the propaganda, and those who do not just resign themselves to a repeat of another atrocity on humanity. What causes this inaction on the part of the people, why are they seemingly paralyzed?
The collective mind, our synchronicity that creates culture and civilization, unfortunately unbeknown to many, is influenced and terribly enslaved from the cradle to the grave. What is it that makes us march forward to our own collective detriment? Who wields this power of influence - why is it exerted - and what can we do to stop this exploitation? It is imperative that we grasp what is going on that influences us to think and act in predictable ways - to the benefit of the few.
We are subject to use and knowledge of science in an experimental petrie dish called society, where all the tools of human knowledge are being used to mold us to a conformity - by those "who know what's best for us." It is an artificial construction of "reality."
We spend most of our time not as individual's, but communicating with each other - we are the subjects of mass communication. This is turn effects what we "see" and "hear" in a collective sense.
Social experience shapes the details of brain psychology, the infants brain is made to fit into the culture in which it was born. Six month olds can hear and make every sound in virtually every human language.
The very physical existence of neurons to the tune of 50% are naturally forced to commit preprogrammed cell suicide to fit into the larger framework of the cultural pattern! Babies, one or two years old that see another infant hurt, or hear it crying, do not merely ape the child's distress, they share it empathetically.
(actual drawing of a child depicting 9/11)
Children cram their powers of perception into a conformist mold, connecting their attention to what others see. Perceptions become the slaves of social commands - it has been proven that children will come to accept and like food that they have disliked previously by putting them into a situation of peer pressure with other children for a period of time, as an example.
At the age of six there is a virtual obsession to be part of the group. There is group punishment for not having the same group perceptions.
Words are the ultimate repository of the herd influence. What we perceive with words is influenced through generations of men, women, families, tribes, and nations - insights, value judgments, ignorance and beliefs are communicated through words.
Word's literally carry the impact of either life or death in many instances. They (words) can be soothing like a salve or searing like a wound from a sword.
So why all this elaboration, and what does this have to do with our current condition of ineffectiveness and immobility in the United States?
 We are not merely bombarded by a mass media 24 hours a day, we have been influenced to believe certain things since infancy. We have acquired this mindset that is branded on our psyche - not merely and external influence.
We are not merely molded into the corporate image, which is bad enough, but the very way we think has been poisoned. Those in power merely move us by what has been previously embedded in our inner core.
(hypnotized)
No, this is not a step away from what I have been saying - this is the starting point, this is the beginning - our very minds! It would be bad if this were the result of some devious men sitting in a room who plotted everything - but it is worse, it is systemic.
So if we are going to grasp our lack of desire for true and good change, our inertia, we are going to have to accept and embrace the fact that the very warp and woof of our worldview is terribly tainted (to say the least). What we desire, what we want, how we think has all been vitiated by this systemic sludge. It is with acknowledging this, and consciously clearing the proverbial mental deck, that will help us to replace this garbage with what is good not only for us but for the people!
We must be committed to not only the building of the new, but the tearing down of the old - in fact, one cannot be had without the other, and all this begins with terra firma. Not all of what the so-called founding fathers have said was bad, we should be committed to what Thomas Jefferson has said:
"I have sworn upon the alter of God
eternal hostility against every form of tyranny
over the mind of man."
We do not merely fight a corrupt capitalistic system, or a corporate media state, in an external sense - we fight the influence of such in our very hearts. Having said all of this, it is imperative that we understand that our condition is not hopeless, that we can overcome this destructive conformity. At this point it is imperative that we do, otherwise we imperil not only our lives, but those of the entire world.

SEPTIC THINK (STINK) TANKS
 (Heritage foundation) I could not think of a better title to summarize the mental fecal matter that has spewed forth the last few decades. You can look anywhere and these almost omnipresent dens of delusion have their two cents somewhere in every disaster the American people have suffered. Devoid of any sense of worldview, having merely a "back yard" view, they have beset the planet with their lunacy, both foreign and domestic.
 These scabs on the human race are repeatedly employed by the government and multi-national corporations, to steer the American people in the direction of profit at any cost and to complete any elite agenda given as a mandate to what is supposed to be a government of, for, and by the people. The arms of corporate media are open wide to these vermin, and the halls of power in Washington are teeming with them. They are proof positive that you can prostitute any given discipline for the right amount of money.
(Funding breakout by elite use)
These selective imbeciles are used to influence the opinion of the people (not just here, but all over the world), they write in newspapers and appear on TV shows and can be heard across America on the overindulged field of "talk radio." The write reports as "academics," supposedly debunking anything but the view of the status quo, as an example on the Iraq debacle. They are corporate darlings that are in the employment of big oil, trying to derail any ideas regarding clean air which might infringe on big oils profit margin, and so on.
(American Enterprise Institute droppings)
They are the self-proclaimed champions against "liberal academia," and they want a Burger King slogan type of education - "have it your way" and live in a bubble of fantasy academics. They are the crusaders for the "family," while they promote the destruction of that very unit by their support of corporate and elite ideas which will divest them of any tools for survival. They provide politicians with the citations that propel us down the fascistic road of destructive empire.
 They brought you the destruction of a livable wage, and the thoughts and language that disemboweled the work unions. At the same time they bring the anti-gay (in the name of the family) harangue, and the anti-abortion brigade. All in all there is about 80 of them that have had unfettered access to Washington, and are the brain of lobby's which grovel for corporate pork. They say they have the right "values," but their message translates into an unmerciful and self-serving quagmire that just serves the few at the expense of the many.
(Center for Strategic and International Studies)
They have "experts" that know what the rest of the world needs, here we have and expert telling us what Central America needs - and it is not freedom nor independence from the "National Security Interest" which always equals the enrichment of the Fortune 500, and is enacted by the "National Security State." This always translates into the impoverishment of the target country(s), the rip off of their resources, and the exploitation of the work force.
They are the people who have unleashed the atrocities that followed 9/11, that have brought this army of "think tanks" to the fore, indeed, the very people who wrote this piece of trash PNAC come from those stinking septic tanks! They have marshalled an entire army of "thinkers" that reads like a who's who of these tanks. They come from academic disciplines, orientalists which vilify your view of over a billion people of Islam.
It has resulted in the deaths of millions of innocent people! It has domestically gutted the budget for the care of the American people, and once again, all it does is enrich the few elite. Here are some of the names and affiliations of the authors in alphabetical order:

ELITE OPPORTUNISTS CREATE IGNORANT RACISTS
 When we look at prejudice in the world I think it is important to understand that there are two things going on. First, you have an elite which uses this to their advantage, marshals a cadre of so-called "scholars," with a pliant cloistered corporate media - which may not even be racist. Than, second, you have those who are the recipients of this elite propaganda, which actually believe what is being portrayed about any given people. The elite come in two flavors, ruling and non-ruling (corporate) elite.
The elite are primarily interested in wealth and the power that comes with that wealth - it is the ultimate addiction. They use racial prejudice in several ways - to naturally divide a people whether the people live domestically together, or in different countries. By doing this they ensure no one unifying to undo their monopoly of however they are accumulating wealth.
Than you have the dupes that swallow the elite swill, everything which the elite put into action. The prejudice that is promoted by these lies is bad, but you wonder what is worse - the people who have swallowed the racist trash, or those who promote the trash through official major media (owned by the elite), and who turn a nations institutions against these people so that they appear in a bad light. One does it for money and power, and the other believes it because they are systemically sledgehammered!
 These two elite work in concert with each other (ruling and corporate), the state is merely the instrument with a visible face of the government. Let me give you one example of a part of the elite apparatus - law enforcement. Law enforcement and it's counterpart, the judicial system, is applied differently to certain races - both brown and black.
All you have to do is look at the prison system, you will find a majority of black and Latino let's say for drug related reasons (as an example). However, if there was an equal application of the law you would find more white people, but you don't (majority application).
This is because all of the law enforcement is put in the communities of color - on purpose, it is like a standing army. Statistics tell us that drug use is prominent among the white population (aprox. 73% the majority), and respectively both black and Latino is less than 20% and the minority - because of the disproportionate application of law enforcement, and it's aggressive actions in communities of color, you find people of color filling the prison industrial complex. There is no war on drugs, poverty, terrorism - just a war on certain people!!
Needless to say, this use of racism and division is to advance the power of the elite. How? First, it endears a certain part, the privileged to the elite (whether they are aware of this or not). Second, it ensures that by debasing one part of the population that there is more crumbs to throw to the "privileged (while they stupidly thank God they are not like 'those people')," and the crumbs look like cake to the masses because of the disenfranchisement of other races (foreign and domestic).
Third, it allows the elite to continue in their oppression because they have used both major corporate media and the states institutions to give the appearance of the inferior nature of the targeted race. The elite try to put a smoke screen up about the use of this weapon by allowing a very tiny (less than a fraction of 1%), but very visible fraction to "make it"(visible on purpose - entertainment, sports, business, politics, etc.).
Plus, it does not matter which ruling elite you look to, they both serve the rich and powerful - the conservative rides his patriotic pony as he divests the poor, the liberal puts a band aid on the death blow given to the poor and minority, the democrat lays the foundation and the Republican builds the edifice - good cop bad cop on steroids!
This is bad enough when it is used domestically, causing both the disenfranchisement, destruction, and death of specific races. If you look very carefully at the targeted races, you will find what I said earlier - people of color. Which is worse, racists or the elite that use this as a tool? They are both bad - but the ones who promote it for financial gain need to be wiped off the face of the earth!
In the foreign sphere the countries of origin are not poor, they are very rich countries in resources, it is just the people that are poor by the exploitation of the corporate and ruling elite! Africa continues to be raped, because it is very rich in resources - we find central and south America rich in resources being assaulted (look for the attack on Venezuela soon), and the new comers - people of "Middle Eastern" descent, who we are ramping up with a racial and prejudicial campaign. IF YOUR NEIGHBORS CAN BE DEMONIZED WITH PEOPLE BELIEVING IT, CAN'T YOU SEE IT IS MUCH EASIER TO DO IT ON FOREIGN SOIL? THIS IS DUE TO THE BUBBLE EFFECT CREATED BY ELITES IN THE OFFENDING COUNTRY.
Looking at this in the light of the recent immigration issue, it is just another ramp up of the same elite racial divide story (see my previous articles, "Walkout," and "Where's The Future!"). The junta of ruling and corporate elite plunder countries south of our boarder, setting up veritable dictators and a small aristocratic core in these countries - the people flee here, where there is some democratic landscape still left intact (created by the people, not the government) - but eroding swiftly. The enemy are the entrenched elite that remove viable jobs and opportunity with global so-called treaties, and they use minorities as the scapegoat!
The question of the hour (or the centuries for that matter) is what are the people going to do about this? Are you ignorant of the fact that this process employed by the elite is the same the Nazi's employed? Will they continue to be duped and blinded by the elite illusion of race and threat? Will there be a massive awakening where we will stop this nonsense once and for all?
WE HAVE SEEN THIS DEVELOP FROM SLAVERY AND DESTRUCTION OF OUR INDIGENOUS POPULATION, TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE NATIONAL SECURITY STATE AND CLANDESTINE DESTRUCTION, TO EMPIRE AND NOW TO OPEN WAR ON ENTIRE NATIONS IN THE MIDDLES EASTERN REGIONS. IT STARTED DOMESTICALLY AND SPREAD RAPIDLY TO OTHER COUNTRIES, AND NOW IS READY TO ENGULF THE WORLD. The answer lies with the people, and our ability to gain an equal platform to undo this vermin.
