Hey kids…

My German publisher has rights for all European languages and for a Russian edition, which he says he intends to publish.

I hear that the Chinese are interested in publishing my book. Most likely, South America will follow. Strange, isn’t it, that no serious work that diverges from the US propaganda line can be published in the United States, the country of “freedom and democracy.” What a joke!

In my lifetime, especially the 21st century, the US has become the country of thought control and oppression. The USA today bears no resemblance whatsoever to the country I grew up in. I feel like I am living in a foreign 20th century police state. I have told Press TV (Tehran) and the BBC World Service (London) not to call me any more about controversial issues as, if I speak the truth, it could result in my arrest. Free speech is no longer an American right.

I haven’t been able to tell RT this yet, because the female hosts are so beautiful and most of the interviews are from RT’s Washington, D.C., studio and not from Moscow. I figure that as long as our overlords in Washington permit RT broadcasts from Washington, DC, they can’t arrest me for aiding and abetting “enemies.” I mean, it is our overlords’ fault, right, that “enemies” call me for interviews from Washington DC The overlords could shut down the “enemies” on their home turf, but as long as they haven’t I should be free to speak to RT Washington. Perhaps this is naive, but it seems legally coherent, not that that any longer means anything. Probably RT will quit calling me in order to avoid being shut down by the “freedom and democracy” US government. The “freedom and democracy” government in the UK shut down Press TV, no longer permitted to broadcast to British subjects.

Human Rights attorneys tell me that as the US Constitution is no longer observed by the executive branch, that I can’t speak freely according to my Constitutional rights, the First Amendment and all, without running the risk of being arrested.

They tell me that Bradley Manning has been arrested, tortured, and is currently being framed in a phony prosecution for doing his duty according to the US Military Code and revealing massive US war crimes. The dumbshit American population is unable to accept that they and “their” government are responsible for war crimes. After all, we are “the indispensable people,” second only to god’s chosen people, the Israelis.

Human rights attorneys also tell me that Julian Assange of WikiLeaks has been targeted for his journalistic revelations, protected by the First Amendment, of information leaked to him. Nevertheless, despite his legal protections, he is targeted by Washington for imprisonment, torture, and most likely death.

To comprehend the USA’s rapid descent into police state tyranny, compare Daniel Ellsberg’s leak of the Pentagon Papers to Assange’s publication of US documents leaked to him by a third party. Unlike Ellsberg, Assange himself did not leak the documents. WikiLeaks is in the role of the New York Times, which published the leak from Ellsberg. Neither Ellsberg nor the New York Times were indicted or prosecuted although they were threatened. Yet, Assange, who is in the secondary role as the publisher, not the leaker, faces indefinite detention and torture if Washington can get its hands on him through the corrupt Swedish prosecutor who has “reopened” without evidence the closed Swedish case against Assange.

When you think about how distant Americans are from the events overwhelming them, light years really, it is very difficult to see any hope. Americans are simply not up to the challenge. Americans are mentally and emotionally too weak, and their ignorance is vast, a totally uninformed people. They have no idea of what is happening to them and to the rest of the world as a result of “their” government’s immorality and evil and incessant lies.

Several years ago I had a telephone call from a professor and former dean of a university in Boston. He said that he had been in Washington, D. C., the previous week and had had lunch with some of my former colleagues. He said that when he asked about me, the response was, “poor Craig, if he hadn’t turned critic, he would be worth tens of millions of dollars like us.” Upon hearing this, my acquaintance said that he stood up and announced that he did not realize he was having lunch with a bunch of whores and departed the lunch.

Obviously, my acquaintance did not need anything from my still-well-connected former colleagues. I replied to him that I was pleased that my former colleagues agreed that my integrity was worth more to me than tens of millions of dollars.

The telephone call confirmed my prior decision to leave Washington and confirmed my conclusion that everyone there was bought and paid for by some interest group. A more corrupt place has never existed on earth. The stench of Washington’s corruption and evil even wafts down far into the South, although few of the Republican lemmings can smell it.

That is our government today. It belongs to those who purchase it, courtesy of the Republican US Supreme Court, not to those voters whom the government allegedly represents.

The baldfaced truth is that in America the people have no rights and no representation. The American people are a nonentity. Far from being indispensable, they are totally dispensable, just like the thousands of Arab women and children whose murders are dismissed as “collateral damage” in the hoax war on terror. Washington has taken a page from Mao, “democracy issues forth from the barrel of a gun.”

Paul Craig Roberts, a former Assistant Secretary of the US Treasury and former associate editor of the Wall Street Journal, has been reporting shocking cases of prosecutorial abuse for two decades. A new edition of his book, The Tyranny of Good Intentions, co-authored with Lawrence Stratton, a documented account of how americans lost the protection of law, has been released by Random House. Visit his website.

WASHINGTON — The former US commander in Afghanistan, Stanley McChrystal, has urged that the draft be reinstated to spread the burden of fighting and to instill a sense of shared civic duty among young Americans.

The country’s all-volunteer force has performed with great skill but after more than a decade of war “we’re running very, very hard and at a certain point you can’t expect it to go forever,” McChrystal said at a conference last month.

Apart from the strain on troops and their families after repeated deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan, only a small fraction of the population was affected by the conflicts, the general said.

“It’s less than one percent of Americans touched by this,” he said at the event organized by the Aspen Institute.

Other senior military leaders have voiced concern about a growing gap between the all-volunteer force and the rest of society.

Former Pentagon chief Robert Gates said in 2010 that “for most Americans the war remains an abstraction” and Admiral Mike Mullen, the ex-chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said he feared US civilians “do not know us” while the military had become increasingly “insular.”

But McChrystal’s comments were unusual for advocating a return to some form of conscription. Most top brass are strong supporters of retaining a “professional” military and tend to oppose any talk of reinstating the draft, which was discarded in 1973 amid turmoil over the unpopular Vietnam War.

“We’ve never done an extended war with a professional army like this. We’ve got a very professional army, a volunteer army and professional reserve and they’ve done a lot. So we’re in uncharted territory,” said McChrystal.

The general, who was sacked in 2010 over a magazine profile in which he and his staff ridiculed top civilian leaders including the US president, said a new national service requirement could include a range of non-military activities.

“I’m becoming a little bit more extreme on this each year. I think we need national service and I think you need it either at the conclusion of high school or university.

“I don’t think young people would really fight it if it was fair, if everybody did it. I’m not talking about military, I’m talking about all kinds of things,” he said.

The specific projects were less important than the “shared experience” of service, he said.

“It’s not whether they go build roads and parks or that sort of thing. It’s what you put inside them, because once you have contributed to something, you have a slightly different view of it.”

Pentagon Propaganda At It’s Finest!

The United States Army’s team of scientists are busy at work developing a device that will shoot lightning bolts down laser beams to destroy its target.

And they are doing it with gusto - announcing their work with a hearty: ‘Soldiers and science fiction fans, you’re welcome.’

The Laser-Induced Plasma Channel, or LIPC, is designed to take out targets that conduct electricity better than the air or ground that surrounds them.

And the research is a lot of work, but as George Fischer, lead scientist on the project, said: ‘We never got tired of the lightning bolts zapping our (simulated) targets.’

Quick fire! A guided lightning bolt travels horizontally, then hits a car when it finds the lower resistance path to ground

The idea is for a laser beam to be sent in the direction of the target.

When it approaches, the target, such as an enemy vehicle, will be a better conductor than the ground it sits on, leading to a massive current rocketing through it.
