Good read. This guy stopped a coup d'etat. One of the most decorated soldiers in US history telling it like it is. It is a short read. Worth the time!

Challenge your programming.

That article he wrote is like what, 80 years old? But it's still relevant today.

War is racket, always has been.

Bottom line is war is all about f*ckin people up. Freedom and democracy? Yeah... right. Like that's part of the agenda.

RE: War is a Racket by Major General Smedley Butler
i had initially sent this along to psychonaut for him to make a thread about..
and it tells alot about the bankers and connections and war..
when i looked for it here, the vid had been removed by user so i found it again.

anyway.. it is long.. but it is well worth watching.. and fits well in this thread i think.

How can we defend Democracy abroad when we can't even defend it at home?

Do we ever learn?

Well, we are much better at marketing the wars now, but otherwise, NO.

We haven't even finished the last two wars and we are already clamouring for the next one to begin.
