America's Greatest Hits


Astonishingly, many Americans seem to be completely unaware of many of the atrocities committed by their own country. Ripping off the blindfold, the following contains a partial list of the death toll that American militarism has caused in the world during recent history (nearly all of the listings are within the past 60 years). The facts of this list will be expanded upon in following sections. Additional atrocities will also be presented in following sections.
This list includes interventions conducted both overtly and covertly.

It includes the use of force through militaries armed,

trained, funded, and directed by the US.

It is true that some of these atrocities only had a few US officials actively involved, but these puppet armies would never have been capable of such destruction without US supplying and assistance (as detailed following sections show).

There are countless mass killings missing from this list that the US is responsible for, but this list covers the most violent crimes committed by the US government in recent history.

Many horrible casualties are listed here, but it is important to not just think in terms of numbers and statistics.

We should visualize each of the beautiful lives that were destroyed.

Imagine stadiums filled with Korean children dying from napalm before your eyes.

Visualize the mothers in Iraq digging up the corpses of their children.

Picture children in Vietnam who were born without legs or arms because of residual effects of Agent Orange.

Envision tens of thousands of Japanese civilians being wiped by out by atomic bombs before they even knew what hit them.

Think about the children in Nicaragua crying on the street, seeking their mothers, not knowing that they had been killed by US-created contras.

See the atrocities through the eyes of countless loving fathers in El Salvador who were forced to watch their infant children beat to death against rocks and their wives nailed upside down with their breasts cut off and skin of their face peeled off.

Think about what it must have been like to be those victims or their grieving loved ones.

Worthy of noting is that almost all of these slaughters have been directed at non-whites and the vast majority of the victims of US militarism are civilians. The estimated ratio of civilians to soldiers that the US kills overseas is 10 to 1. In many cases the ratio is much worse.

These innocent lives are the victims of the relentless drive by the United States' corporate and military elite for global economic domination. These victims have given their lives so that a small percentage of Americans can prosper.

The following is a partial list of atrocities, massacres, murders, and injuries in recent history for which the United States is responsible:

• 3,000,000 Vietnamese murdered over the course of about 30 years of US aggression.

• Well over 300,000 Japanese were massacred when the US raided Tokyo and dropped nuclear bombs on the urban civilian areas of Nagasaki and Hiroshima.

• 200,000 were slaughtered in East Timor in 1975 by General Suharto with US support.

• 750,000 civilians were driven from their homes in East Timor by Indonesian forces in 1999 and 10,000 were killed.

• Over 1,700,000 Iraqis have been killed by US bombings and sanctions, mostly women and children.

• Over 1,000,000 lives were lost during the Iran-Iraq War in the 1980s in which the US used direct force and supported Hussein and Iraq.

• 35,000 Kurds were killed, 3,500 villages were destroyed, and between 2,000,000 and 3,000,000 became homeless as a result of aggression by Turkey with US arming and training in the 1990s.

• Over 1,000,000 people were killed in Afghanistan's civil war from 1979 to 1992, in which the US strongly supported the Moujahedeen, the most violent and sadistic of the forces. (This also set the stage for the CIA-backed Taliban to attain power.)

• 45,000 people were killed in South Lebanon since 1982 by Israel, always armed and supported by the US.

• Hundreds of thousands have been killed in Palestine and millions (in both Palestine and Lebanon) were made refugees by US-backed Israel.

• Over 150,000 were killed in Greece when America advised, equipped, and financed violent interventions in the late 1940s and late 1960s.

• Over 75,000 civilians were killed and over one million refugees were created in El Salvador from 1980 to 1994 when the US intensely supported the efforts of a brutal regime and its death squads to eliminate a popular uprising.

• 40,000 civilians were killed by the US-backed National Guard in Nicaragua over the course of almost 50 years.

• Thousands of people in Pacific islands, Puerto Rico, Utah, California, Nevada, Washington, New Mexico, and various other places have been killed, infected, or harmed as a result of US weapon experiments (especially nuclear weapons and weapons using depleted uranium).

• Hundreds of civil rights activists have been beaten, tortured, framed, and killed in the US by government agencies in recent history.

• Hundreds of Black Panther supporters and American Indians were framed, beaten, or murdered by the FBI and its cohorts in the late 60's and early 70's.

• Over a thousand American Muslims "disappeared" after September 11, 2001, and have been detained without evidence of wrongdoing.

• As of the this publishing, over 10,000 were killed in Afghanistan by America's "War on Terror."

Operation Menu. One of the most horrific Yank-perpetarted bloodbaths. Not only did the Americans outright slaughter 600,000 Cambodians, but this bloodbath set the stage for the Khmer Rouge Communist party to take power who promptly killed off another 2 million Cambodians in the years following.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Menu

Operation Menu was the codename of a covert United States Strategic Air Command (SAC) bombing campaign conducted in eastern Cambodia from 18 March 1969 until 26 May 1970, during the Vietnam War leading to the destruction of over 1,000 towns and villages, the displacement of 2,000,000, and the deaths of over 600,000 Cambodians. The campaign failed in its objective of preventing North Vietnamese offensives, which continued during Operation Menu. It also enraged the Cambodian public and helped created a climate that allowed the Khmer Rouge to come to power.

An official United States Air Force record of some US bombing activity over Indochina from 1964 to 1973 was declassified by US president Bill Clinton in 2000.[citation needed] The data reveals the true extent of the bombing of Cambodia, as well as Laos and Vietnam. According to the data, the Air Force began bombing the rural regions of Cambodia along its South Vietnam border in 1965 under the Johnson administration. This was four years earlier than previously believed. A report by historian Ben Kiernan and Taylor Owen states 2,756,941 tons of ordnance was dropped in 230,516 sorties on 113,716 sites.

a lot of the carnage created by the US is documented pretty well in the book, "People's History of the US", by Howard Zinn.

he gets a few things wrong, he makes fun of people who suggest FDR knew in advance about Pearl Harbor, that he did know in advance is well-documented in the biographies of some of his commanding officers.

sometimes i wonder if the word Vietnam War was a psy-ops, just like the term "Cold War".  there was nothing cold about the Cold War for the people that died in it.

the Vietnam War was actually a Southeast Asian War.  when i counted it it came to 4.5 civilians as a conservative estimate for the number of civilians killed by the US in Vietnam, Laos, & Cambodia.  also that doesn't include the casualties of people hurt & killed by mines and by Agent Orange dioxins and other poisons left behind by the US.

sometimes i wonder if part of the motivation for the Vietnam war was, Israel wanted the US to be pre-occupied with trouble at home so that Israel could stir up shit in the Mid-East.  it's not like SE Asia had a lot of oil.

Comments on the Moro Massacre

by

 Mark Twain (March 12, 1906)

This incident burst upon the world last Friday in an official cablegram from the commander of our forces in the Philippines to our Government at Washington. The substance of it was as follows: A tribe of Moros, dark-skinned savages, had fortified themselves in the bowl of an extinct crater not many miles from Jolo; and as they were hostiles, and bitter against us because we have been trying for eight years to take their liberties away from them, their presence in that position was a menace. Our commander, Gen. Leonard Wood, ordered a reconnaissance. It was found that the Moros numbered six hundred, counting women and children; that their crater bowl was in the summit of a peak or mountain twenty-two hundred feet above sea level, and very difficult of access for Christian troops and artillery. Then General Wood ordered a surprise, and went along himself to see the order carried out. Our troops climbed the heights by devious and difficult trails, and even took some artillery with them. The kind of artillery is not specified, but in one place it was hoisted up a sharp acclivity by tackle a distance of some three hundred feet. Arrived at the rim of the crater, the battle began. Our soldiers numbered five hundred and forty. They were assisted by auxiliaries consisting of a detachment of native constabulary in our pay -- their numbers not given -- and by a naval detachment, whose numbers are not stated. But apparently the contending parties were about equal as to number -- six hundred men on our side, on the edge of the bowl; six hundred men, women and children in the bottom of the bowl. Depth of the bowl, 50 feet.

Gen. Wood's order was, "Kill or capture the six hundred."

The battle began-it is officially called by that name-our forces firing down into the crater with their artillery and their deadly small arms of precision; the savages furiously returning the fire, probably with brickbats-though this is merely a surmise of mine, as the weapons used by the savages are not nominated in the cablegram. Heretofore the Moros have used knives and clubs mainly; also ineffectual trade-muskets when they had any.

The official report stated that the battle was fought with prodigious energy on both sides during a day and a half, and that it ended with a complete victory for the American arms. The completeness of the victory for the American arms. The completeness of the victory is established by this fact: that of the six hundred Moros not one was left alive. The brilliancy of the victory is established by this other fact, to wit: that of our six hundred heroes only fifteen lost their lives.

General Wood was present and looking on. His order had been. "Kill or capture those savages." Apparently our little army considered that the "or" left them authorized to kill or capture according to taste, and that their taste had remained what it has been for eight years, in our army out there - the taste of Christian butchers.

The official report quite properly extolled and magnified the "heroism" and "gallantry" of our troops; lamented the loss of the fifteen who perished, and elaborated the wounds of thirty-two of our men who suffered injury, and even minutely and faithfully described the nature of the wounds, in the interest of future historians of the United States. It mentioned that a private had one of his elbows scraped by a missile, and the private's name was mentioned. Another private had the end of his nose scraped by a missile. His name was also mentioned - by cable, at one dollar and fifty cents a word.

Next day's news confirmed the previous day's report and named our fifteen killed and thirty-two wounded again, and once more described the wounds and gilded them with the right adjectives.

Let us now consider two or three details of our military history. In one of the great battles of the Civil War ten per cent. Of the forces engaged on the two sides were killed and wounded. At Waterloo, where four hundred thousand men were present on the two sides, fifty thousand fell, killed and wounded, in five hours, leaving three hundred and fifty thousand sound and all right for further adventures. Eight years ago, when the pathetic comedy called the Cuban War was played, we summoned two hundred and fifty thousand men. We fought a number of showy battles, and when the war was over we had lost two hundred and sixty-eight men out of our two hundred and fifty thousand, in killed and wounded in the field, and just fourteen times as many by the gallantry of the army doctors in the hospitals and camps. We did not exterminate the Spaniards -- far from it. In each engagement we left an average of two per cent. of the enemy killed or crippled on the field.

Contrast these things with the great statistics which have arrived from
[page 172]
that Moro crater! There, with six hundred engaged on each side, we lost fifteen men killed outright, and we had thirty-two wounded-counting that nose and that elbow. The enemy numbered six hundred -- including women and children -- and we abolished them utterly, leaving not even a baby alive to cry for its dead mother. This is incomparably the greatest victory that was ever achieved by the Christian soldiers of the United States.

Now then, how has it been received? The splendid news appeared with splendid display-heads in every newspaper in this city of four million and thirteen thousand inhabitants, on Friday morning. But there was not a single reference to it in the editorial columns of any one of those newspapers. The news appeared again in all the evening papers of Friday, and again those papers were editorially silent upon our vast achievement. Next day's additional statistics and particulars appeared in all the morning papers, and still without a line of editorial rejoicing or a mention of the matter in any way. These additions appeared in the evening papers of that same day (Saturday) and again without a word of comment. In the columns devoted to correspondence, in the morning and evening papers of Friday and Saturday, nobody said a word about the "battle." Ordinarily those columns are teeming with the passions of the citizen; he lets no incident go by, whether it be large or small, without pouring out his praise or blame, his joy or his indignation about the matter in the correspondence column. But, as I have said, during those two days he was as silent as the editors themselves. So far as I can find out, there was only one person among our eighty millions who allowed himself the privilege of a public remark on this great occasion -- that was the President of the United States. All day Friday he was as studiously silent as the rest. But on Saturday he recognized that his duty required him to say something, and he took his pen and performed that duty. If I know President Roosevelt -- and I am sure I do -- this utterance cost him more pain and shame than any other that ever issued from his pen or his mouth. I am far from blaming him. If I had been in his place my official duty would have compelled me to say what he said. It was a convention, an old tradition, and he had to be loyal to it. There was no help for it. This is what he said:

Washington, March 10. Wood, Manila:- I congratulate you and the officers and men of your command upon the
[page 173]
brilliant feat of arms wherein you and they so well upheld the honor of the American flag. (Signed) Theodore Roosevelt.

His whole utterance is merely a convention. Not a word of what he said came out of his heart. He knew perfectly well that to pen six hundred helpless and weaponless savages in a hole like rats in a trap and massacre them in detail during a stretch of a day and a half, from a safe position on the heights above, was no brilliant feat of arms - and would not have been a brilliant feat of arms even if Christian America, represented by its salaried soldiers, had shot them down with Bibles and the Golden Rule instead of bullets. He knew perfectly well that our uniformed assassins had not upheld the honor of the American flag, but had done as they have been doing continuously for eight years in the Philippines - that is to say, they had dishonored it.

The next day, Sunday, -- which was yesterday -- the cable brought us additional news - still more splendid news -- still more honor for the flag. The first display-head shouts this information at us in the stentorian capitals: "WOMEN SLAIN MORO SLAUGHTER."

"Slaughter" is a good word. Certainly there is not a better one in the Unabridged Dictionary for this occasion

The next display line says:

"With Children They Mixed in Mob in Crater, and All Died Together."

They were mere naked savages, and yet there is a sort of pathos about it when that word children falls under your eye, for it always brings before us our perfectest symbol of innocence and helplessness; and by help of its deathless eloquence color, creed and nationality vanish away and we see only that they are children -- merely children. And if they are frightened and crying and in trouble, our pity goes out to them by natural impulse. We see a picture. We see the small forms. We see the terrified faces. We see the tears. We see the small hands clinging in supplication to the mother; but we do not see those children that we are speaking about. We see in their places the little creatures whom we know and love.

The next heading blazes with American and Christian glory like to the sun in the zenith:

"Death List is Now 900."

I was never so enthusiastically proud of the flag till now!

The pattern is always the same Yiddy Yoda   :

1) Use money to industralize & militarize many countries
2) Make sure one enforced territorial zone or so-called country is strongest (in the case of past 100 years the U.S.) so you'll always have a winner:
3) Create Boogieman, often both ways (for example: in cold war; commies boogie-bad for U.S./ U.S. boogie-bad for commies; in case of Islam vs. West, Towelheads Boogie-bad for Yankee Rednecks, Yankee Rednecks Boogie bad-Satan for Towel-heads; create examples of boogie-man for others to follow: example bearded-pimp in Cuba left there on purpose for other South American Boogie-man aspirees to emulate)
4) Use boogieman excuse to beat drums of battle in whory TV land in the name of self-defense
5) Use boogieman excuse to invade, grab all resources and blood-sacrifice any pesky humans that might get in the way.
6) Repeat previous 5 steps


What the animated girl in that Chomsky-on-Steroids vid says: "Your Red Ass is Cooked" is exactly correct. It's called discrediting criticism in advance. The guy put it in there because by anticipating his butt-nailing he deflects it.  The Bolshy who made that vid made not one single reference to where the commies may have happened to spring from every so peacefully. Plus he mentioned the ultimate Yid Boogie-man Adolf and the Holycost as an 'extreme' case without any mention of his non-extreme bolshy heroes like all good Bolshy-Gulag-lovers. Surprise of all surprises bolshy-boy vid-maker then recommends two books written by an Irishman named Blum. Senor No-Balls Chomsky-Imitator Blum. Pass the matzo balls senor no-balls. :lol:

[CrackSmokeRepublican]

Don't forget to look closely at Kissinger...

Decisions

Not all of the members of the administration agreed that an invasion of Cambodia was either militarily or politically expedient. Secretary of Defense Melvin R. Laird and Secretary Rogers were both opposed to any such operation due to their belief that it would engender intense domestic opposition in the U.S. and that it might possibly derail the ongoing peace negotiations in Paris (they had both opposed the Menu bombings for the same reasons).[23] Both were castigated by Henry Kissinger for their "bureaucratic foot-dragging."[24] As a result, Laird was bypassed by the Joint Chiefs in advising the White House on planning and preparations for the Cambodian operation.[25]
On 30 April 1970, President Nixon announced the attack into Cambodia. In a televised address to the nation, he justified it as a necessary response to North Vietnamese aggression

On the evening of 25 April Nixon dined with his friend Bebe Rebozo and Kissinger. Afterward, they screened one of Nixon's favorite movies, Patton, a biographical portrayal of controversial General George S. Patton, Jr., which he had seen five times previously. Kissinger later commented that "When he was pressed to the wall, his [Nixon's] romantic streak surfaced and he would see himself as a beleaguered military commander in the tradition of Patton."[19]

The following evening, Nixon decided that "We would go for broke" and gave his authorization for the incursion.[19] The joint U.S./ARVN campaign would begin on 1 May with the stated goals of: reducing allied casualties in South Vietnam; assuring the continued withdrawal of U.S. forces; and enhancing the U.S./Saigon government position at the peace negotiations in Paris.[26]

In order to keep the campaign as low-key as possible, General Abrams had suggested that the commencement of the incursion be routinely announced from Saigon. At 21:00 on 30 April, however, President Nixon appeared on all three U.S. television networks to announce that "It is not our power but our will and character that is being tested tonight" and that "the time has come for action." He announced his decision to launch American forces into Cambodia with the special objective of capturing "the headquarters of the entire communist military operation in South Vietnam."[27]

in case of Islam vs. West, Towelheads Boogie-bad for Yankee Rednecks, Yankee Rednecks Boogie bad-Satan for Towel-heads

half of that is true. the Yankee Rednecks are not a "boogieman" they are a real threat, as big as one gets.

The Bolshy who made that vid made not one single reference to where the commies may have happened to spring from every so peacefully. Plus he mentioned the ultimate Yid Boogie-man Adolf and the Holycost as an 'extreme' case without any mention of his non-extreme bolshy heroes like all good Bolshy-Gulag-lovers.

The holyco$t mention was a turn off for me as well, but the video is mostly correct about "America" and its god-forsaken foreign policy. But this guy William Blum, his books are fact. It's not like he gets promoted by the Jews' media, he doesn't and suffers from censorship just like the anti-Yids are muzzled, even though he doesn't mention the role of Yids in all of this.

Surprise of all surprises bolshy-boy vid-maker then recommends two books written by an Irishman named Blum. Senor No-Balls Chomsky-Imitator Blum. Pass the matzo balls senor no-balls. :lol:

What exactly do you have against Blum? Because he exposed the full story of American treachery since WW2? I think his books are essential, at least for opening people up to the psychotic American "system" of making other nations slaves of the US. Once you get that knowledge under ur belt, then you can get into who you think is running the show. If you ask ten different people who is running the show you'll get ten different answers. Jews are obviously in charge, but they have help... a lot of help. and in this day and age the Yanks are the Shabbas Goi.

Issue very very complex Yiddy Yoda, not black-&-white as all that and Bolshy-boys Blum & Chomsky (they're practically identical), if truly goodfellas would bust-ass on their commie-hero-boys as much if not more than their yankee-whipping-boys. Being Marxy-boys Chomsky-Blum types consider commies Yank-resistance and hence automatically deserving of protection, no matter what bloody-ultra-violence left in wake. Hence very few mentions if any of commie-massacres in Chomsky tomes. As far as Chomsky concerned commie-massacres also caused by evil-Yanks for not allowing wonderful-democracy to vote itself into commie-bolshy freedom-land. Either Chomsky don't fathom left-right pardigm and how it's played, meaning Chomsky stupid MIT prof. or Chomsky dishonest for a special secret reason dear to bolshy-boy heart. So even before 9-11 Chomsky quite very dishonest ass-bleeder. 9-11 comments proved bolshy-Chomsky-beet-red-hemmorhoid-ass-bleeder boy dishonest for approximately 99.9999999999999999% sure.  

Elites always play left-right paradigm not just right, right and more right like brainy-bolshy-chomsky-boy & his smarty-pants-bolshy-blumy-red-hemorrhoid carbon copy blabb on about with their bleeding bolshy Mao-Lenin-lovin' 150-million dead ever-so-caring Trotskyite butts behind them.  Money-shitting-Elites (of all stripes if you're an Austin AJ fanboy, of mainly Yiddy stripes if you're a DBS-Frenchie-club lemming of reptoid stripes of you're a Icky-boy lemming) or MSE for short, use brainwashed-fascistic-goon-squad worse than anything their ultimate boogie-man (of both bolshys and right-wingers; Saddam & even good-two-shoes uncle Milosevic were compared to Adolf the horror, Ahmedinejackturd also to form the perfect cutesy image to send redneck dip-chewing volunteer trigger-happy heroic servicemen and negro-&-chicano-ex-gang-member-type freedom-troopers gladly bombing and murdering and maiming their evil Adolfy opponents in the name of a better globy planet and scuba-diving with little fishes.. All right-wingers of republican bent and most even of Libertarian bent  also consider Adolf and his gang-of-merry-men ultimate boogie just like bolshy-chomsky-hemorroid-boy and his lemmings including blumy-the-avenger. Yanks, Chinks & Russkies  are unlucky enough to be chosen for these brain-washed android humanitarian missions of goodwill both inside & outside their wonderful tourist paradises. All MSE laws in all countries where they can get away with it, always serve to  INCREASE government interference in people's lives, not less., because gov is agency of their force in law-abiding moronic citzen's lives, more gov-regs of all kinds, less freedoms, always means more and more collectivism, less and less invidvidualism in all territories of lovely-globy planet, always and without exception.  Reason for laws passed given are always sweet and lovely sounding. Step-by-step even Jackson, Jeffersonm, Adams, Franklin & Ford are reversed into Barry-the-Magic-Mulatto bolshy wonderland.  If people get too angry too soon, limited hang-out is given to those fools outside lefty-righty pardigm through infiltrated useful idiot suckas like Austin-fat-boy and Ronnie-Paul to give their energies a place to drain itself and deflate.  



It's not democrat vs. republican, of course,  but if you want a paradigm that covers all extremes it is: collectivism vs. individualism as CSR's-favorite Jewess   Ayn Rand identified.  Give the speed-taking hag some credit  :lol: . Collectivism / group rights bad, Individualism & Individual rights good. Democracies are majority-dicatorship collectivism sometimes good when majority of people are rational and fair, sometimes terrible when majority of people are retards. The individual being the smallest minority, once that minority of one is protected of inalienable rights and no group allowed to cross that line through gov. action, you have a system where freedom is more protected from perversion than in any 'democracy' through not immune as the U.S. has proven. If you wanna keep things simple that's the simple 2 polarity paradigm that covers all political ideolgies possible. Just because the MSE (Money Shitting Elites) can twist things to always end up collectivist and in their favor doesn't make it an incorrect or any less crucial identification.  I suggest watching entire ex-KGB-man Bezmenov video since he makes the same exact point coming from very involved direct experience that Rand and Libertarians made from lesser experience and applied logic. He is interviews by the libertarian plagiarist G.Edward Grffin:

Ur right this is all incredibly complex. There is just so much info and disinfo out there that it is impossible to be sure about anything anymore. Words like fascism, communism, socialism, capitalism, have hardly any meaning anymore as people just use these words for their own purposes. Everyone uses these words without even knowing what they mean. People just attribute anything they don't like to one of these ideologies. If the US doesn't like something they call it communism, if they like something they call it democracy. Commie's refer to everything they don't like as capitalist. Jews label everything they don't like "fascist", etc. I don't think Chomsky is a communist. He's an anarchist but you call him a bolshy-commie because he is a critic of "capitalist America" and goes easy on the commies. He does go easy on the commies but that doesn't negate what he says about the U.S. The hardcore commies and the hardcore anti-commies (i.e. finance capitalists) are responsible for horrid atrocities.

Chomsky has some good research you can use but then so does Alex Jones or any other shill.  You can't enter the shill olympics unless you leave a trail of valid research behind you first. And then you come out with: Arabs own Hollywood?  Who cares about who did 9-11?  Why doesn't Chomsky ask the millions of dead Iraqis and Afghanis?  They would all still be alive if not for whoever did 9-11 providing the excuse for massacring them with collective punishment.

By far the best explanation of what the internal and external dynamics of States are and whether they correlate or not is by Rothbard :

"There is still one thesis common to Americans and even to some libertarians that may prevent them from absorbing the analysis of this chapter: the myth propounded by Woodrow Wilson that democracies must inevitably be peace-loving while dictatorships are inevitably warlike. This thesis was of course highly convenient for covering Wilson's own culpability for dragging America into a needless and monstrous war. But apart from that, there is simply no evidence for this assumption. Many dictatorships have turned inward, cautiously confining themselves to preying on their own people: examples range from premodern Japan to Communist Albania to innumerable dictatorships in the Third World today. Uganda's Idi Amin, perhaps the most brutal and repressive dictator in today's world, shows no signs whatever of jeopardizing his regime by invading neighboring countries. On the other hand, such an indubitable democracy as Great Britain spread its coercive imperialism across the globe during the nineteenth and earlier centuries.

The theoretical reason why focussing on democracy or dictatorship [p. 290] misses the point is that States — all States — rule their population and decide whether or not to make war. And all States, whether formally a democracy or dictatorship or some other brand of rule, are run by a ruling elite. Whether or not these elites, in any particular case, will make war upon another State is a function of a complex interweaving web of causes, including temperament of the rulers, the strength of their enemies, the inducements for war, public opinion. While public opinion has to be gauged in either case, the only real difference between a democracy and a dictatorship on making war is that in the former, more propaganda must be beamed at one's subjects to engineer their approval. Intensive propaganda is necessary in any case — as we can see by the zealous opinion-moulding behavior of all modern warring States. But the democratic State must work harder and faster. And also the democratic State must be more hypocritical in using rhetoric designed to appeal to the values of the masses: justice, freedom, national interest, patriotism, world peace, etc. So in democratic States, the art of propagandizing their subjects must be a bit more sophisticated and refined. But this, as we have seen, is true of all governmental decisions, not just war or peace. For all governments — but especially democratic governments — must work hard at persuading their subjects that all of their deeds of oppression are really in their subjects' best interests.

What we have said about democracy and dictatorship applies equally to the lack of correlation between degrees of internal freedom in a country and its external aggressiveness. Some States have proved themselves perfectly capable of allowing a considerable degree of freedom internally while making aggressive war abroad; other States have shown themselves capable of totalitarian rule internally while pursuing a pacific foreign policy. The examples of Uganda, Albania, China, Great Britain, etc., apply equally well in this comparison.

In short, libertarians and other Americans must guard against a priori history: in this case, against the assumption that, in any conflict, the State which is more democratic or allows more internal freedom is necessarily or even presumptively the victim of aggression by the more dictatorial or totalitarian State. There is simply no historical evidence whatever for such a presumption. In deciding on relative rights and wrongs, on relative degrees of aggression in any dispute in foreign affairs, there is no substitute for a detailed empirical, historical investigation of the dispute itself. It should occasion no great surprise, then, if such an investigation concludes that a democratic and relatively far freer United States has been more aggressive and imperialistic in foreign affairs than a relatively totalitarian Russia or China. Conversely, hailing a State for being [p. 291] less aggressive in foreign affairs in no way implies that the observer is in any way sympathetic to that State's internal record. It is vital — indeed, it is literally a life-and-death matter — that Americans be able to look as coolly and clear-sightedly, as free from myth at their government's record in foreign affairs as they are increasingly able to do in domestic politics. For war and a phony "external threat" have long been the chief means by which the State wins back the loyalty of its subjects. As we have seen, war and militarism were the gravediggers of classical liberalism; we must not allow the State to get away with this ruse ever again.19

A Foreign Policy Program

To conclude our discussion, the primary plank of a libertarian foreign policy program for America must be to call upon the United States to abandon its policy of global interventionism: to withdraw immediately and completely, militarily and politically, from Asia, Europe, Latin America, the Middle East, from everywhere. The cry among American libertarians should be for the United States to withdraw now, in every way that involves the U.S. government. The United States should dismantle its bases, withdraw its troops, stop its incessant political meddling, and abolish the CIA. It should also end all foreign aid — which is simply a device to coerce the American taxpayer into subsidizing American exports and favored foreign States, all in the name of "helping the starving peoples of the world." In short, the United States government should withdraw totally to within its own boundaries and maintain a policy of strict political "isolation" or neutrality everywhere.

The spirit of this ultra-"isolationist," libertarian foreign policy was expressed during the 1930s by retired Marine Corps Major General Smedley D. Butler. In the fall of 1936, General Butler proposed a now-forgotten constitutional amendment, an amendment which would delight libertarian hearts if it were once again to be taken seriously. Here is Butler's proposed constitutional amendment in its entirety:

1. The removal of members of the land armed forces from within the continental limits of the United States and the Panama Canal Zone for any cause whatsoever is hereby prohibited.

2. The vessels of the United States Navy, or of the other branches of the armed service, are hereby prohibited from steaming, for any reason whatsoever except on an errand of mercy, more than five hundred miles from our coast. [p. 292]

3. Aircraft of the Army, Navy and Marine Corps is hereby prohibited from flying, for any reason whatsoever, more than seven hundred and fifty miles beyond the coast of the United States.20

Smedley Butler

















So Chomsky is buddies with Castro and Chavez who is also buddies with Castro and almost wants to french-kiss a guy who enjoys the hobby of stoning people to death for adultery after lashing them 100 times and kills homosexuals after lashing them a 100 times, all this shit not including prison time. It's obvious that Chomsky (and his imitators like Blum) likes butchers just fine (not sure about Chavez but Mahmood & Fidel for sure) as long as they are of the  Marxist-Socialist or Imperialist-fighting type and confine their jolly mayhem to victims within their own borders and were 'democratically' elected by retards to commit said jolly bloodletting.

General Smedley Darlington Butler :  War is a racket



Book in PDF format:

http://www.ratical.org/ratville/CAH/warisaracket.pdf
 

War Is a Racket is the title of two works, a speech and a booklet, by retired U.S. Marine Major General Smedley Darlington Butler, one of only 19 people to be twice awarded the Medal of Honor, in which Butler frankly discusses from his experience as a career military officer how business interests have commercially benefited from warfare.

After he retired from the Marine Corps, Gen. Butler made a nationwide tour in the early 1930s giving his speech "War is a Racket".[1] The speech was so well received that he wrote a longer version as a small book with the same title that was published in 1935 by Round Table Press, Inc., New York. The booklet was also condensed in Reader's Digest as a book supplement which helped popularize his message. In an introduction to the Reader's Digest version, Lowell Thomas, the "as told to" author of Butler's oral autobiographical adventures, praised Butler's "moral as well as physical courage".[2]

Book
In War Is A Racket, Butler points to a variety of examples, mostly from World War I, where industrialists whose operations were subsidised by public funding were able to generate substantial profits essentially from mass human suffering.

The work is divided into five chapters:

1.War is a racket
2.Who makes the profits?
3.Who pays the bills?
4.How to smash this racket!
5.To hell with war!
It contains this key summary:

"War is a racket. It always has been. It is possibly the oldest, easily the most profitable, surely the most vicious. It is the only one international in scope. It is the only one in which the profits are reckoned in dollars and the losses in lives. A racket is best described, I believe, as something that is not what it seems to the majority of the people. Only a small 'inside' group knows what it is about. It is conducted for the benefit of the very few, at the expense of the very many. Out of war a few people make huge fortunes."
In another often cited quote from the book Butler says:

"I spent 33 years and four months in active military service and during that period I spent most of my time as a high class muscle man for Big Business, for Wall Street and the bankers. In short, I was a racketeer, a gangster for capitalism. I helped make Mexico and especially Tampico safe for American oil interests in 1914. I helped make Haiti and Cuba a decent place for the National City Bank boys to collect revenues in. I helped in the raping of half a dozen Central American republics for the benefit of Wall Street. I helped purify Nicaragua for the International Banking House of Brown Brothers in 1902-1912. I brought light to the Dominican Republic for the American sugar interests in 1916. I helped make Honduras right for the American fruit companies in 1903. In China in 1927 I helped see to it that Standard Oil went on its way unmolested. Looking back on it, I might have given Al Capone a few hints. The best he could do was to operate his racket in three districts. I operated on three continents."
The book is also interesting historically as Butler points out in 1935 that the US is engaging in military war games in the Pacific that are bound to provoke the Japanese.

"The Japanese, a proud people, of course will be pleased beyond expression to see the United States fleet so close to Nippon's shores. Even as pleased as would be the residents of California were they to dimly discern through the morning mist, the Japanese fleet playing at war games off Los Angeles."
Butler explains that the excuse for the buildup of the US fleet and the war games is fear that "the great fleet of this supposed enemy will strike suddenly and annihilate 125,000,000 people."

In his 1987 biography of Butler, Maverick Marine,[3] Hans Schmidt gave a brief review:

"Butler's particular contribution was his recantation, denouncing war on moral grounds after having been a warrior hero and spending most of his life as a military insider. The theme remained vigorously patriotic and nationalistic, decrying imperialism as a disgrace rooted in the greed of a privileged few."

In another often cited quote from the book Butler says:

"I spent 33 years and four months in active military service and during that period I spent most of my time as a high class muscle man for Big Business, for Wall Street and the bankers. In short, I was a racketeer, a gangster for capitalism. I helped make Mexico and especially Tampico safe for American oil interests in 1914. I helped make Haiti and Cuba a decent place for the National City Bank boys to collect revenues in. I helped in the raping of half a dozen Central American republics for the benefit of Wall Street. I helped purify Nicaragua for the International Banking House of Brown Brothers in 1902-1912. I brought light to the Dominican Republic for the American sugar interests in 1916. I helped make Honduras right for the American fruit companies in 1903. In China in 1927 I helped see to it that Standard Oil went on its way unmolested. Looking back on it, I might have given Al Capone a few hints. The best he could do was to operate his racket in three districts. I operated on three continents."
The book is also interesting historically as Butler points out in 1935 that the US is engaging in military war games in the Pacific that are bound to provoke the Japanese.

"The Japanese, a proud people, of course will be pleased beyond expression to see the United States fleet so close to Nippon's shores. Even as pleased as would be the residents of California were they to dimly discern through the morning mist, the Japanese fleet playing at war games off Los Angeles."
Butler explains that the excuse for the buildup of the US fleet and the war games is fear that "the great fleet of this supposed enemy will strike suddenly and annihilate 125,000,000 people."

In his 1987 biography of Butler, Maverick Marine,[3] Hans Schmidt gave a brief review:

"Butler's particular contribution was his recantation, denouncing war on moral grounds after having been a warrior hero and spending most of his life as a military insider. The theme remained vigorously patriotic and nationalistic, decrying imperialism as a disgrace rooted in the greed of a privileged few."
