As much as I have disagreed with MS, on this, I agree...
Don't be a fooled Anonymous, the war on drugs has cost the nation billions, and the ruined the lives of thousands. If anything, the economy would have flourished and not perished. The US allows many drugs into our food and healthcare industries that kill thousands and yet you seem not to notice... Monsanto products to name one of many...

He who owns the money owns the law, which is why those who own the money are able to excuse themselves....

All men but a few are; selfish, greedy, power crazy, and self centered - they don't question authority or the the news which masquerades as as being independent of government, military, and corporate propaganda. We are without doubt in an age of total control by the oligarchy and its echelon of corporate and military puppets. The ONLY way to free ourselves from this spiral of degradation is to revolt against the matrix.... good luck!

Unfortunately, it is still most prevalent today....

It was definitely not a revolution......

Perhaps if the planet was being attacked..... The key here is the word "alleged"

"The greatest threat to peace is the barrage of rightist propaganda portraying war as decent, honorable, and patriotic." - Jeannette Rankin

America no longer has a democracy or a republic - it lost any sense of ethics and morality when the politicians sold their sold to the corporations and the military. It is a fascist, military, oligarchy with religion as its bedfellow... It is so obvious why America and the west are beating the drums of war. It's called protecting the empire and grabbing more resources while you're doing it! If you don't wish to be invaded by America and the West you better be in debt to the IMF (central banks), trade in dollars, and grow Broccoli...

Sorry, but this quote is way out of reality as it paints a broad stroke over a very complex canvas.....

I just hope its not to late....

I would add more than once....

You have all said it! though I would prefer the latter to be the former, i.e.; "....oblige it to control itself." You must have control and transparency of government before you have control of its people..... America now has total disregard for what the people think or say, as its become an oligarchy ruled by a few psycho maniacs. Its road to WWIII is paved with greed and tyranny. WWIII started with the US invasion of Afghanistan.

I agree with David......

Anonymous. perhaps just a few stars...

Who is he talking about? obviously he's not part of the real world - I wish his sentiments were true, unfortunately they are pie in the sky. Perhaps one day this may ring true but that day is a long way off..... Mike said it!

We are each unique regardless the trolls....

Five stars all all five quotes. This is meant philosophically - in other words your mind is yours it does not mean it's alone or you are a loner....

And the young don't learn from the old.....

Again, an excellent statement, Alas the negative of these words is becoming America's MO....

Excellent! Unfortunately, America is slipping rather precariously into the void of tyranny...

God has nothing to do with it - if there is a God "it" must answer for the crimes committed in its name...There was NO creator of the Universe unless you call "Nature" God... Man has used this mythical being (or entity) to perpetrated the most heinous crimes against humanity....

Life is but a story and it depends who wins the battle how the story is written...

I would have added the word ..."lawful" duty... Good reply Archer...

Coming from a Deist it was spot on! - God left man to it! and "rights" were man's concerns.

Life must always be questioned - even more so if you are comfortable. The force of propaganda rules most lives, it is therefore paramount to question what you are fed..... Fear, fear, consume, consume - Go back to sleep America all is well!
