In the past decade, Washington has killed, maimed, dislocated, and made widows and orphans millions of Muslims in six countries, all in the name of the \u201cwar on terror.\u201d Washington\u2019s attacks on the countries constitute naked aggression and impact primarily civilian populations and infrastructure and, thereby, constitute war crimes under law. Nazis were executed precisely for what Washington is doing today.<\/p>\n
Moreover the wars and military attacks have cost American taxpayers in out-of-pocket and already-incurred future costs at least $4,000 billion dollars–one third of the accumulated public debt–resulting in a US deficit crisis that threatens the social safety net, the value of the US dollar and its reserve currency role, while enriching beyond all previous history the military\/security complex and its apologists.<\/p>\n
Perhaps the highest cost of Washington\u2019s \u201cwar on terror\u201d has been paid by the US Constitution and civil liberties. Any US citizen that Washington accuses is deprived of all legal and constitutional rights. The Bush-Cheney-Obama regimes have overturned humanity\u2019s greatest achievement–the accountability of government to law.<\/p>\n
If we look around for the terror that the police state and a decade of war has allegedly protected us from, the terror is hard to find. Except for 9\/11 itself, assuming we accept the government\u2019s improbable conspiracy theory explanation, there have been no terror attacks on the US. Indeed, as RT pointed out on August 23, 2011<\/a>, an investigative program at the University of California discovered that the domestic \u201cterror plots\u201d hyped in the media were plotted by FBI agents.<\/p>\n FBI undercover agents now number 15,000, ten times their number during the protests against the Vietnam war when protesters were suspected of communist sympathies. As there apparently are no real terror plots for this huge workforce to uncover, the FBI justifies its budget, terror alerts, and invasive searches of American citizens by thinking up \u201cterror plots\u201d and finding some deranged individuals to ensnare. For example, the Washington DC Metro bombing plot, the New York city subway plot, the plot to blow up the Sears Tower in Chicago were all FBI brainchilds organized and managed by FBI agents.<\/p>\n RT reports that only three plots might have been independent of the FBI, but as none of the three worked they obviously were not the work of such a professional terror organization as Al Qaeda is purported to be. The Times Square car bomb didn\u2019t blow up, and apparently could not have.<\/p>\n The latest FBI sting ensnared a Boston man<\/a>, Rezwan Ferdaus, who is accused of planning to attack the Pentagon and US Capitol with model airplanes packed with C-4 explosives. US Attorney Carmen Ortiz assured Americans that they were never in danger, because the FBI\u2019s undercover agents were in control of the plot.<\/p>\n Ferdaus\u2019 FBI-organized plot to blow up the Pentagon and US Capitol with model airplanes has produced charges that he provided \u201cmaterial support to a terrorist organization\u201d and plotted to destroy federal buildings–the most serious charge which carries 20 imprisoned years for each targeted building.<\/p>\n What is the terrorist organization that Ferdaus is serving? Surely not al Qaeda, which allegedly outwitted all 16 US intelligence services, all intelligence services of America\u2019s NATO and Israeli allies, NORAD, the National Security Council, Air Traffic Control, Dick Cheney, and US airport security four times in one hour on the same morning. Such a highly capable terror organization would not be involved in such nonsense as a plot to blow up the Pentagon with a model airplane.<\/p>\n As an American who was in public service for a number of years and who has always stood up for the Constitution, a patriot\u2019s duty, I must hope that the question has already popped into readers\u2019 minds why we are expected to believe that a tiny model airplane is capable of blowing up the Pentagon when a 757 airliner loaded with jet fuel was incapable of doing the job, merely making a hole not big enough for an airliner.<\/p>\n When I observe the gullibility of my fellow citizens at the absurd \u201cterror plots\u201d that the US government manufactures, it causes me to realize that fear is the most powerful weapon any government has for advancing an undeclared agenda. If Ferdaus is brought to trial, no doubt a jury will convict him of a plot to blow up the Pentagon and US Capitol with model airplanes. Most likely he will be tortured or coerced into a plea bargain.<\/p>\n Apparently, Americans, or most of them, are so ruled by fear that they suffer no remorse from \u201ctheir\u201d government\u2019s murder and dislocation of millions of innocent people. In the American mind, one billion \u201ctowel-heads\u201d have been reduced to terrorists who deserve to be exterminated. The US is on its way to a holocaust that makes the terrors Jews faced from National Socialism into a mere precursor.<\/p>\n Think about this: Are not you amazed that after a decade (2.5 times the length of WW II) of killing Muslims and destroying families and their prospects in six countries there are no real terrorist events in the US?<\/p>\n Think for a minute how easy terrorism would be in the US if there were any terrorists. Would an Al Qaeda terrorist from the organization that allegedly pulled off 9\/11–the most humiliating defeat ever suffered by a Western power, much less \u201cthe world\u2019s only superpower\u201d–still in the face of all the screening be trying to hijack an airliner or to blow one up?<\/p>\n Surely not when there are so many totally soft targets. If America were really infected with a \u201cterrorist threat,\u201d a terrorist would merely get in the massive lines awaiting to clear airport \u201csecurity\u201d and set off his bomb. It would kill far more people than could be achieved by blowing up an airliner, and it would make it completely clear that \u201cairport security\u201d meant no one was safe.<\/p>\n It would be child\u2019s play for terrorists to blow up electric sub-stations as no one is there, nothing but a chain link fence. It would be easy for terrorists to blow up shopping centers. It would be easy for terrorists to dump boxes of roofing nails on congested streets and freeways during rush hours, tying up main transportation arteries for days. But nothing happens. So the FBI arrests a guy for planning to blow up America with a model airplane. It is really depressing how many Americans will believe this.<\/p>\n Consider also that American neoconservatives, who have orchestrated the \u201cwar on terror,\u201d have no protection whatsoever and that the Secret Service protection of Bush and Cheney is minimal. If America really faced a terrorist threat, especially one so professional to have brought off 9\/11, every neoconservative along with Bush and Cheney could be assassinated within one hour on one morning or one evening.<\/p>\n
\nBefore, dear reader, you accuse me of giving terrorists ideas, do you really think that these ideas would not already have occurred to terrorists capable of pulling off 9\/11?<\/p>\n
