"The
aim of public education is not to spread enlightenment at all; it is
simply to reduce as many individuals as possible to the same safe
level, to breed and train a standardized citizenry, to down dissent and
originality. That is its aim in the United States, whatever the
pretensions of politicians, pedagogues, and other such mountebanks, and
that is its aim everywhere else....Their purpose, in brief, is to make
docile and patriotic citizens, to pile up majorities, and to make John
Doe and Richard Doe as nearly alike, in their everyday reactions and
ways of thinking, as possible." -- H. L. Mencken - (1880-1956) American Journalist, Editor, Essayist, Linguist, Lexicographer, and Critic

WikiLeaks: Experts Explain America's Role In Afghanistan Corruption
By Braden Holly
President
Hamid Karzai's half-brother, is getting paid by the CIA and that
thousands of other officials are being paid off. That, in my mind, is
corruption," said Pratap Chatterjee, an author and columnist for the
Guardian. "A lot of the biggest money in Afghanistan is U.S. military
and State Department contracts."

Myth of "American Exceptionalism"
The Ultimate, Pernicious Howler
By Robert Becker
Beyond
the '50's jingoism of "America, right or wrong," the right now stays
this course, "America, never wrong." We must be special, the chosen
elect, morally superior to every other country. Why else would an
omnipotent God put us in charge? End of discussion. Frankly, the
Roman Empire was more culturally tolerant.

Vietnam: The Last Battle
By John Pilger
Vietnam
was allowed to join the World Trade Organization and qualify for World
Bank loans provided it embraced the "free market," destroyed its free
public services and paid off the bad debts of the defunct Saigon
regime: money which had helped bankroll the American war. The
reparations agreed by President Richard Nixon in the 1973 Paris Peace
Accords were ignored.

Latin America's Twenty First Century Capitalism and the US Empire
By James Petras
Insofar
as militarism defines the policies and strategies of the US Empire
there is no remedy for the challenges of lumpen power in its
'backyard'. And Washington has nothing on offer to recapture a dominant
presence in Latin America.

Amazon's Wikileaks Takedown:

a society, we have reached a place where the only way to protect some
sorts of speech on the Internet is through one of only a couple dozen

legal process or oversight, is a bad idea
