Ralph Nader’s Fools Paradise

Ralph Nader asks the rhetorical question: “What could start a popular resurgence in this country [comatose America] against the abuses of concentrated, avaricious corporatism?” Well, Ralph, in view of the open criminality of Wall St. Bankers and the heinous unpunished crimes of Washington war criminals, past and present, the short answer is, NOTHING!

I refer you to the social complicity/paralysis of the German people to the crimes of the Nazis during the propaganda campaign developed by Joseph Goebbels for the Party in the 30’s – a model which America emulates today.

Ask yourself; are the criminal actions of the Nazis and Washington/Wall St, so different; the mass murder of millions of innocent civilians, corporate-instigated wars of plunder and military expansionism and the feeble justifications of the criminal perpetrators i.e. ‘super race’ or ‘God on our side?’ It’s the same, almost to a tee – the masses fell for it then and the majority of Americans are captivated now! It follows that the same FATE awaits America that befell Germany.

Do Americans think for a minute killing millions of INNOCENT civilians in Indo-China, Indonesia, Latin America and Central Asia will somehow go unpunished or without reprisal? If so, think again; I am aware that certain Serbs would not hesitate to detonate a device and lay waste to an entire American city as just retribution for the massive criminal injustices perpetrated on their people and traditional lands – how much more the Asians, Latin Americans and Arabs?

You were right to refer to history but you draw the WRONG conclusions; America is making exactly the same mistakes as Nazi Germany, the delusion of invincibility and superiority and not appreciating the consequences of its criminal actions. History records the ‘solution’ as coming from WITHOUT, externally NOT internally! No internal resistance of any consequence changed or disrupted the Nazis nor will it affect the direction of America today; I could spell it out if I was so inclined, but I hope I have given you enough direction to conclude the inevitable outcome for yourself. However, I do have the advantage of being an objective EXTERNAL observer.

Every American is a victim, including the ruling plutocracy. They delude themselves that they are in control when in FACT it is they that are paving the way to American oblivion!

Take another look at the historical record and then leave America while the going is good! I do not exaggerate, old boy!
