After more than a decade of stupid wars against terrorism,
reckless occupations of Afghanistan and Iraq ; permanent hostility
toward any country in Latin America that dares to honor Catholic social
philosophy or socialist humanism; after more than five years of the
Great Recession that has ruined the hopes of a generation of working
class youth, the American ruling class wants to revive Cold War fever
and make Vladimir Putin's Russia again the " axis of evil " in the world
? Americans can overnight forget their dysfunctional democracy, their
mass misery, and cheer brainlessly for the redeployment of our mighty
missiles-and pretend that America still stands tall as a pillar of "
freedom " and international law ? How can any red blooded American sleep
well at night knowing that one jackass oligarch has replaced another
jackass oligarch in far away Ukraine ? Thank God for our A-bombs !
What we need is another Woodrow Wilson to make the world
safe for our own plutocracy ? Our so very patriotic ONE PERCENT ?
Calling all international lawyers and other charlatans to the New Crusade !
But old Sixties radicals won't be fooled again !
