Never ever assume you’ve seen or heard the worst from the USA, as the sociopaths that rule that nation never cease assailing honour, truth, justice, morality and integrity. Just when you think that nation couldn’t possibly sink any lower, the bar of common decency and morality is lowered AGAIN.
Martin Luther King
Realising too late that the most CRUCIAL battle for the minds and hearts of the global population has been lost, the out of step ossified likes of Rockefeller, Kissinger, Murdoch and their ilk, scramble to the front line where hundreds of millions of bloggers and independent news sites exchange information, decry the American criminal State and publish every morsel of truth they are able to uncover.
In response to this flood of information, which has effectively defeated the lies and propaganda that issue from the Corporate media, a Pentagon official, armed with a water pistol, his medication and the usual flagrant American distortions, failed miserably in his first attempt at ‘perception management.’
This demented clown claimed that Martin Luther King, one of the staunchest pacifists and social reformers of his day, would condone America’s current illegal wars of invasion, plunder, civilian killing and occupation in Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan and other regions around the world. Never let it be said that reason interferes with DESPERATION in the USA.
Novice reporters and D grade analysts could not miss the REAL import of that insane announcement. We are witnessing the collapse of the old guard, they clearly are unable to contend in today’s light-speed world; they have no answer or constructive solutions – their offerings we witness today, wars, mayhem, destruction, pollution and FAILED POLICIES.
The good news is the FREE WORLD has had enough of criminal America, its LIES, worthless unpegged paper money and its rustic violent ways.
The USA had an open field, a golden opportunity with the collapse of the USSR and an undeveloped China – but what did they do with it? Look to the American ‘solution,’ WAR, PLUNDER, MASS MURDER and DESTRUCTION, fuckin’ 'brilliant!’ An apt old adage here applies, ‘good riddance to bad rubbish!’
Report from Raw Story on the Pentagon’s insanity follows:
Pentagon official: Martin Luther King would support Iraq, Afghan wars
by Sahil Kapur
An Obama administration official said that nonviolent icon Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. would "understand" and "recognize" the need for the US wars in Iraq and Afghanistan if he were alive today.
In a speech commemorating the late hero days before Martin Luther King, Jr. Day on Monday, the Department of Defense's general counsel Jeh C. Johnson imputed highly questionable views to the civil rights leader.
"I believe that if Dr. King were alive today, he would recognize that we live in a complicated world, and that our nation's military should not and cannot lay down its arms and leave the American people vulnerable to terrorist attack," Johnson said.
Johnson claimed US service members are helping the people of Iraq and Afghanistan, noting that Dr. King spoke out in favor of acts of kindness.
"I draw the parallel to our own servicemen and women deployed in Iraq, Afghanistan and elsewhere, away from the comfort of conventional jobs, their families and their homes," Johnson said, adding that the "dangerous unselfishness" of the troops would make Dr. King proud.
The claim sparked controversy as critics were quick to note that Dr. King was an ardent anti-war activist who spoke out against military interventions.
Investigative journalist Jeremy Scahill called it "[o]ne of the most despicable attempts at revisionist use of Martin Luther King Jr. I've ever seen."
Salon's Justin Elliott remarked that Dr. King's "political philosophy, as outlined in his landmark 1967 speech against the Vietnam war, strongly suggests that he would be an opponent of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, and, for that matter, the secret wars in Yemen and Pakistan."
In the speech, Dr. King lamented "the most powerful nation of the world speaking of aggression as it drops thousands of bombs on a poor, weak nation more than 8000 miles from its shores."
He called the United States "the greatest purveyor of violence in the world today" and said: "A nation that continues year after year to spend more money on military defense than on programs of social uplift is approaching spiritual death."
The Pentagon release goes on to note that Johnson, an African-American, is a graduate of Morehouse College, Dr. King's alma mater, where he attended school with Dr. King's son.
