Why haven’t we conducted a rapid response to all those who oppose global American hegemony? Why haven’t we given ultimatums and timetables to, say countries like China, Iran, Cuba and so forth? Why must we continually engage in all this waste of time and resources?
Is it:
1.) The American public who elects the officials do not have the will or desire? 2.) The educational systems and media have not properly molded the minds of our citizens? 3.) There is too much money to make from the current complex? 4.) There is no political will due to fear and apathy? 5.) The moral leaders lack conviction, direction and want peace, love and harmony and the status quo? 6.) Our policy leaders are narrow minded egomaniacs? 7.) Our military’s hands are tied given both the structure of our government and the influences acting upon it? 8.) The public just thinks “Can’t we all just get along?” 9.) No one wants the blood of innocents on their hands? 10.) America thinks that everyone else in the world will eventually ‘get us’ and say ‘oh wait – we’ve been doing this all wrong’ and come around to our way of doing things – one way or another; over time that is; a great deal of time? 11.) We are afraid that we’ll have CNBR war upon us? 12.) That we’ll be hated, and rightly so, by the other want-a-be governments and brainwashed peoples, terrorist entities and so forth - of the world? 13.) We, as Americans, are better than that?
Don’t we have to break a few eggs? All this low grade conflict is a grand aggravation. The American people and the peoples of the world will rank us with the Hitlers and Napolenaons of history. Here’s another cliché: “Don’t the winners write history and then indoctrinate through education? Isn’t the notion of a state passé?
Are we really taking the path of least resistance and suffering a death by a thousand cuts? Do we really want to be all things to all peoples and want everyone everywhere to love us always?
Are we too ignorant or afraid to know what to do with our success?
Shouldn’t we strike while we have the chance; while the iron is hot; quickly rip the band aide off; dive right in?
We have the high ground – space; we have the weapons. The executive branch has been gathering up power form many years now and it has the constitutional power to make war; do we have too many conflicting voices in the military and special services where they won’t follow the order to strike?
Is it that we have the wrong ‘megalomaniacs’ in high offices? We are wasting too many energies; through duplication of efforts and fighting one another. Don’t we need a global despot to arrange the peoples and resources?
Oh wait – the United Nations!? Ha! NATO?! – Ha! and so on.
Wait, wait! We need our allies; our friends; we need our political alliances and so forth – right?!
The best defense is a strong offence; the race goes to the swift; he who hesitates is lost; it’s better to be feared and so on..
Wait ‘Think of the children!; Turn the other cheek; The strong should bend to the weak; with great power comes great responsibility and so on..
By the pricking of my thumbs…!
Where’s the humanity?! I don’t mean NGO’s, foreign aid as a weapon; charities, soft power, coercions, co-co-opting; politically maneuvering; setting reasonable bite-sized expectations – blah blah blah
We don’t want to tip over the apple cart – the stock market has rebounded – look at how well the oil companies are doing – blah blah blah
Why go to war? We have TiVo™ steady electricity, great GNP and growth and America is on the grow! Three chickens in every pot!
Let sleeping doges lie – leave well enough alone – it’s too complex to monkey with – Whatever!
Let the babbling one eye Cyclops, that modern day opiate of the masses, lull the American sheeple into theta state and fatten them for their eventual slaughter.
Perhaps all we need is a little religion and understanding and to remain hopeful for the future and to ‘teach our children well?’ Maybe we should wait another year to see if that lump on our behind is a carbuncle or cancer –or at least until the next wave of corporate reports come out?
Or maybe- just maybe – we do this thing – ‘let’s roll’ or maybe ‘roll over!’
‘WAR –huh! what is it good for?’
Slowly weaken from rot from within and division and eventually have Belize take us over – perhaps it’s for the best.
Maybe the aliens will land and force a settlement on us – and I don’t mean Mexico!
Maybe Elvis’ spirit will show us the way; or perhaps we can click out heels three times and close our eyes and hope it was all a bad dream and wake up to find we haven’t left Kansas after all.
Ladies and gentelmen - WAR.
sniff
or #10 - the American educational system and media haven’t “learned” us what the meaning of American hegemony is.
Are you for real....or really dumb? welcome newbie stoner.
This is the best your brian can do?
“United States Of Earth”
Has a nice ring to it...
Brian? Brian? Hallooo, are you in there, Brian?
Never forget .. we are all "World Citizens®" now!
Man, that’s a lot of typing just to hype the worst looking “blog” on the internet.
Who is brian?
Brian’s not available right now, he’s busy declaring war on the world.
My brian hurts.
... and this is your Brian on drugs.
With Obama as president, we’ll probably just surrender to the UN. Signing on to a Kyoto II treaty is tantamount to surrender to the UN.
“my brian”?
