How British Storm Shadow cruise missiles could disrupt Putin’s plans aga...

These stupid wars in the news growing inevitably into World War III , what are they really all about ? Can ordinary intelligent citizens of any civilized country believe that it is just all about the need to protect FREEDOM from all these dastardly people around the world who just HATE FREEDOM for some dumb reason ? For years now the mainstream news media in " OUR democracy " has been promoting the HATE RUSSIA , New McCarthyism with stale Wilsonian blather that was false more than a century ago. After the First World War - " the war to make the world safe for democracy " - ended with victories for British and American imperialism and French colonialism - sensitive authors in many countries expressed their revulsions at the very WORDS which sparked that catastrophe of civilization : " freedom, " democracy ", " way of life ", " sovereign nations " ( for example, French author Celine's " Journey to the End of the Night " or Ernest Hemmingway's " Farewell to Arms " ) . And behind all the phrases is the BIG LIE , for WAR is and always has been a function of society's ruling classes. Nowhere on this planet do ordinary people plan or start wars. But HISTORY teaches that they do END them. Here in " Our democracy " why should any rational citizen be aroused to war fever to make the world safe for the war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu in APARTHEID Israel or for the crackpot agenda of the warmonger , embezzler V. Zelensky in " Greater Israel " Ukraine ? Where is the connection here to meaningless words and phrases like " FREEDOM ", "DEMOCRACY ", "WAY OF LIFE" , " SOVEREIGN NATION" ? FREEDOM for whom ? Democracy for whom ? Whose WAY OF LIFE ? And just how " sovereign " is Ukraine after getting permission from Washington D.C . for missile attacks on Russia ? Does American imperialism really invest billions for any country's " sovereignty " ? Do these stultifying words and phrases really echo in a dying brain of a mortally wounded combat soldier ? More likely the last words heard inside their own skulls are " Mother " and " God " . [ “It happened, you see, after the war, when I saw people making money while the others were dying in the trenches. You saw it and you couldn't do anything about it. Then later I was at the League of Nations, and there I saw the light. I really saw the world was ruled by the Golden Calf, by Mammon! Oh, no kidding! Implacably. Social consciousness certainly came to me late.” ― Louis Ferdinand Céline ]
