Blowback: How U.S. Drones, Coups, and Invasions Create More Violence

Posted on by

“U.S. and Western politicians avert their eyes from this data and this correlation; acts of terror are explained away as ‘random,’ ‘mindless,’ and, perhaps most disingenuously of all, ‘unprovoked.’ The public, either unfamiliar with secret operations carried out by the U.S. military or intelligence services, or uninformed about the brutal nature of the foreign wars fought in their name, tend to buy into this fantasy of an ‘innocent’ America hated and attacked by hordes of ‘mad’ Muslims.”

John Whitehead: Round Ups, Checkpoints and National ID Cards

Posted on by

“The problem with allowing government agents to demand identification from anyone they suspect might be an illegal immigrant—the current scheme being employed by the Trump administration to ferret out and cleanse the country of illegal immigrants—is that it lays the groundwork for a society in which you are required to identify yourself to any government worker who demands it.”

How Rigid Alliances Have Locked Us Into Unwanted Conflicts

Posted on by

“It makes no sense to undertake commitments or deploy U.S. military forces in a manner that could trap the United States in wars unrelated to vital American interests. Yet that is what U.S. policymakers have done for decades and continue to do.”

Posted on by

“Many of the heavily-armed activists who flocked to the scene feared that the FBI snipers had a license to kill the Bundys. Their reaction cannot be understood without considering a landmark 1990s case that continues to shape millions of Americans’ attitude towards Washington: the federal killings and coverups at Ruby Ridge.”

The ‘War on Terror’: The Globalization of Perpetual War

Posted on by

“America’s war on terror has spread to 76 countries, as shown below.  This metastasizing of ‘counterterror’ efforts is truly paradoxical: the more the U.S. military works to stop terror, the more terror spreads.”

The Great Beer Conspiracy to Overthrow the U.S.

Posted on by

“As suddenly as the Hun threat arose, it disappeared. The armistice that brought peace to the continent went into effect on Nov. 11, 1918, just two weeks after the committee launched its investigation into machinations of German-American brewers. As such, the committee swiftly lost interest in the German infiltration.”

The British Empire in Yemen

Posted on by

“One of the reasons that Americans are unable to draw the parallels between Great Britain and the United States is that the U.S. version of empire hasn’t followed the British model. Instead of converting foreign lands into colonies, the U.S. government has followed the Soviet Union’s model of empire that was established in Eastern Europe. It uses local proxies or ‘puppets’ to serve as agents for the U.S. government, just as the Soviets did in Eastern European countries. This has enabled the United States to maintain the façade of supporting ‘independent’ regimes in the countries it controls, which just happen to ‘invite’ the United States to maintain military bases in their countries.”
