The Heartland of Liberty is being shaken to its
very core by the growing disquiet in its People, and as the onlookers stand
appalled, the very foundations of this planets concept of Liberty are eroded
and turned to shifting sands of displaced freedom.
As a planet, The People heard the lies told to
cause War. As a Planet, The People heard the changing tales as
justification to cause War. As a Planet, we stand helpless and watch the
internal and deliberate destruction of the single heartplace of Liberty for all
men, America.
It is not only deliberate, it has been carefully planned. Each side of
politics has played or been played into positions of impotent
compromise by a very small few. The devious division of a
diverse enemy is the first rule of conquest. The American People stand
divided in both politics and heart.
Too many believe that the United States Military
can defend them. Nothing can or will defend America if indeed she turns
upon herself once more in confusion. Nothing will prevent the downfall of
what should remain a beacon of freedom into tomorrow for all freedom loving
nations. It is what America came of age upon - the pursuit of
Liberty. It is what she must be remembered for, not as the
destroyers of such a notion.
When the President himself proclaims that he does not worry unduly about affairs
outside his own family, how might the people draw strength from such selfishness?
When the Administration would smile while
beating a new tune on the WarDrum, and the media turn the Peoples
attention towards a newer, more unknown threat - Iran, most would think that America
has an unlimited supply of new blood to spill in some intriguing global power
play on the whim of moron, sired by a puppeteer.
But the truth is far different, America is laid
bare to attack despite billions spent on 'protecting' the people.
"The threat of nuclear
terrorism is closing in upon us. Chemical terrorism is at hand, and biological
terrorism is a future danger. None of our thousands of nuclear weapons can
protect us from these threats. No 'Star Wars' system... no matter how
technically advanced, no matter how many trillions of dollars was poured into
it... can protect us from even a single terrorist bomb. Not one weapon in our
vast arsenal can shield us from a nuclear weapon delivered in a sailboat or a
Piper Cub or a suitcase or a Ryder rental truck. Not a penny of the 273 billion
dollars a year we spend on so-called defense can actually defend us against a
terrorist bomb.
Nothing in our enormous military establishment can actually give us one whit of
security. That is a military fact." Source
The Truth is different, despite the rose colored
glasses and flag draped coffins. Despite Americans dying for someone
elses goals - not for any purpose, nor American Ideal. Instead, the blood
of America is spilled for false causes, in the name of a man that
admits he worries little about anything but his own family.
The Truth is that America stands almost
defenseless, failing to meet the recruitment numbers for any of the
Military. The Truth is that the Bush Administration is creating a new welfare dependant army, one borne from
desperation, uncertainty and bitter disappointment. A certain recipe for
social disaster if ever one was deliberately created.
The Truth is that the Bush Administration is so
desperate for leaders they will recall a retired veteran to active service
years after he left and offer him the option of spending the 'war in jail' or
go to war in Iraq.
This same soldier will go to war to train men
who have placed their lives on the line to follow a false goal. This man
will be emotionally and mentally coerced to believe in his duty before his
principles, to place 'his men' before his own earned honor. This man can
be sent home to a broken career, a destroyed family or not come home at
all.
That a single American could be forced to War in
the name of a cause he not only does not believe in but in the service of a
leader he holds no respect for is not a sign of a Free Country. It is a
sign of a country under internal seige.
That a single American could be forced to comply
under threat of detention without rights is so alien to the global perspection
of America, Heartland of Liberty as to draw
skepticism from the globally community. No person would think that an
American would tolerate such invasive
and devious undermining of the gloried rights of America! It
is simply unthinkable that Americans would allow such a travesty to occur,
unchallenged or indeed with thier willing participation.
The division of the People of America is almost
complete. Those not split by politics or religion are alienated by the
horrific and seemingly endless combination of both in the same
sentence. The final division will come with the first sincere
'assault' against the real People of America, in their homes, in their shopping
centres, in their faces - perpetually, endlessly and with the same remorse
shown to thier antagonists.
At that time, America is lost to all - it will
be destroyed, it will fall beyond repair. The loss to this planet will be
told throughout history as a lesson to the next generations, each who will vow
that this atrocity shall never happen again, each convinced they know the wrong
ways now and will follow only the right ways - and again, man will rebuild his
entire world.
The People of the world who bear a conscience
look sadly on the United States of America and mourn the loss of her Liberty,
and thus - her internal power and unity. Such a shame when it was lost to
nothing but greed and placency.
If you will not speak
now as the champion of Liberty, who will? If no one steps
aside fear and speaks, who will be first to lament the same loss?
If no one will take notice and care and take action, then who deserves to know
Freedom?
"I searched for words to convey what I felt and I told him,
"I don't mean to offend you, but I can't in good conscience do
that." Source
