Great.

Had I been a lad in 1910, I just might have gone for it.

I didn't know that we were jerking around all over the globe back then.

Nothing much's changed in that regard.

And bragging about the Third World dwellers they got sent off to subjugate, like it was some big deal.

One of the major consequences of the 9/11 movement has been to draw enormous amounts of energy and effort away from activism directed to real and ongoing crimes of state, and their institutional background, crimes that are far more serious than blowing up the WTC would be, if there were any credibility to that thesis. That is, I suspect, why the 9/11 movement is treated far more tolerantly by centers of power than is the norm for serious critical and activist work....Noam Chomsky

All in all, we'd have been well-served to have heeded George Washington's advice.

And don't forget the sinking of the USS Maine about a decade earlier (1898) initiating the Spanish-American War..... "When Johnny Comes Marching Home" in audio. War is a glorious experience.

The marines were the occupying force in Haiti for 19 years, from 1915 to 1934. They lived in homes that most Haitians could only dream of called "Millionaires' Row" and guarded the interests of New York banksters and The Haitian American Sugar Company. (New York banksters were concerned that Germans were assimilating too well, marrying the upscale mullatos and increasing the economic power and political self determination of Haitians of mixed blood, which of course was a direct threat to the wealth of certain *Americans, some of who were already scheming and targeting Germany)

This is also why the US manipulated people and politics in South and Central America, to protect the interests of United Fruit Company, and it's the sole reason that the US unlawfully annexed the non contiguous nation of Hawaii.

Smedley Butler explained in the opening salvo of his famous work, WAR IS A RACKET that he was a gun goon for American corporations that used military force when other means failed or would have involved inconvenient timetables as corporate profits were ripe and hanging low from the limbs....

To the swindlers (whose power is reaching its apex today as they ready to dismantle the final obstacle to world domination and depopulation, the US Constitution) there's only one thing worse than native monkeys swinging on heavily laden branches that could yield fortunes, and that's monkeys who have been taught about capitalism from a Marxist viewpoint. The fact that the Marxist assessment was correct in every meaningful way, i.e. "the capitalists will sell the rope with which to hang them" left the swindlers little choice but to depose, murder and invade, with the help of media moguls who explained the threat to our "freedom" on the pages of US newspapers. (Hey Mom, guess what? I enlisted! "Kill a commie for your mommy!" is the latest in kewl slogans among my friends at school...)

The threat continues today in the manifestation of evil known as Hugo Chavez.

I even wrote a song about it back in the 80's (to honor President Reagan) that went like this:

You're calling to me El Salvador, of your future there is no doubt....

There's a red cloud moving over you and it's choking the freedom out.

But we can stop em.....If we nuke em....

Yeah, we can stop em....If we nuke em....

Most folks thought of nukes as weapons of last resort to be used against nuclear nations that either threatened our "freedom" or attacked us, but I wasn't one to be limited by such effete and unmanly reasoning.

Nosirree, why not nuke a bunch of dirt poor commies and send a message that their puppeteers in The Kremlin couldn't miss? And, to paraphrase Reagan, "If we don't act now we'll see Soviet tanks on the Rio Grande, eventually I'm sure"

"SUPPORT FIRST STRIKE!" my favorite tee shirt read.

I was shocked to learn that many young fire pissers who considered themselves "conservatives" were not upset but, they actually thought it was a splendid idea!

In keeping with their (long since abandoned) govt austerity platform they believed that we shouldn't build any more nukes until we used the ones we had.

Political Science
Randy Newman

No one likes us-I don't know why
We may not be perfect, but heaven knows we try
But all around, even our old friends put us down
Let's drop the big one and see what happens

We give them money-but are they grateful?
No, they're spiteful and they're hateful
They don't respect us-so let's surprise them
We'll drop the big one and pulverize them

Asia's crowded and Europe's too old
Africa is far too hot
And Canada's too cold
And South America stole our name
Let's drop the big one
There'll be no one left to blame us

We'll save Australia
Don't wanna hurt no kangaroo
We'll build an All American amusement park there
They got surfin', too

Boom goes London and boom Paris
More room for you and more room for me
And every city the whole world round
Will just be another American town
Oh, how peaceful it will be
We'll set everybody free
You'll wear a Japanese kimono babe
And there'll be Italian shoes for me

They all hate us anyhow
So let's drop the big one now
Let's drop the big one now

he who wants bread is the servant of the man that will feed him, if a man thus feeds a whole people, they are under his control.

The jerking around started in earnest with the Spanish-American war. Prior to that we weren't a "world power" in the European sense of being boot tromping ass-hats. Instead Americans sat at home being prosperous, having fun and inventing a billion life enhancing inventions with vigor and good cheer in an economic climate of near free trade.

"The more artificial taboos and restrictions there are in the world, the more the people are impoverished.... The more that laws and regulations are given prominence, the more thieves and robbers there will be." - Lao Tzu, 6th century BC
