the evil empire

 
 
Civilian casualties update
 
  • project for the new american century. among pnac's members were and still are vice president dick cheney, defense secretary donald rumsfeld, and deputy defense secretary paul wolfowitz. consider the documents contained in there as blueprints for current us foreign policy, calling for an aggressive and unilateral approach that would secure american dominance of world affairs "by force if necessary." remember "mein kampf" ?
  • ideological reasons explaining why and how under bush, the us is emerging as the "evil" empire (in denial). mar 25th 2003. the nyt.
  • and you thought this war was waged to disarm iraq from wmd it did not have ? because of its imaginary links to al qaeda ? think again. installing a favorable puppet regime and setting military bases is more like it.
  • the war on terrorism is fictionnal, terrorism is only getting worse.
