<i>... Down, down to the ground with her!<br>
O Daughter of Babylon, you devastator, you!, <br>
who ought to be and shall be destroyed, <br>
happy and blessed shall he be <br>
who requites you as you have served us.<br>
Happy and blessed shall he be <br>
who takes and dashes your little ones against the rock!</i><br>

There is but one possible solution and that is the dissolution and
balkanisation of the<br>
United States. It is too big, and too powerful, and therefore much too
evil. <br>
<br>
It was never meant that the United States should have this sort of
corporate power<br>
derived from the joining of individual sovereign states. Enough is
enough.<br>
It is time for the US of A to be dissolved.<br>
<br>
We have waited for the people of the US to stop its aggressive imperial
activity.<br>
<br>
The time of waiting is over. <br>
<br>
Let Lincoln's Union be dissolved, once and for all.<br>
Let that which is one become many.<br>
Unleash the dogs of dissolution and let them feast.<br>
<br>
Let the whole Earth Rejoice.<br>

style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Georgia,serif; line-height: 19px;">…The
education which Occupy has caused to be thrust upon the citizenry —
about corporate abuse and criminality, political corruption,
inequality, poverty, etc., virtually all unprosecuted — would be highly
significant if America were a democracy. But as it is, more and more
people can learn more and more about these matters, and get more and
more angry, but have nowhere to turn to, to effectuate meaningful
change. Money must be removed from the political process. Completely.
It is my favorite Latin expression: <em>sine qua non</em> — "without
which, nothing".…</span></div>

<p style="margin: 0px 0px 1em;">It can not be repeated too often: The
secret to understanding US foreign policy is that there is no secret.
Principally, one must come to the realization that the United States
strives to dominate the world. Once one understands that, much of the
apparent confusion, contradiction, and ambiguity surrounding
Washington's policies fades away. Examine a map: Iran sits directly
between two of the United States' great obsessions — Iraq and
Afghanistan ... directly between two of the world's greatest oil
regions — the Persian Gulf and Caspian Sea areas ... it's part of the
encirclement of the two leading potential threats to American world
domination — Russia and China ... Tehran will never be a client state
or obedient poodle to Washington. How could any good, self-respecting
Washington imperialist resist such a target? Bombs Away!</p>

is difficult to kill large numbers of people without a claim to virtue.
I wonder if this sense of exceptionalism has been embedded anywhere
more deeply than in the United States, where it is drilled into every
cell and ganglion of American consciousness from kindergarten on. If we
measure the degree of indoctrination (I'll resist the temptation to use
the word "brainwashing") of a population as the gap between what the
people believe their government has done in the world and what the
actual (very sordid) facts are, the American people are clearly the
most indoctrinated people on the planet. The role of the American media
is of course indispensable to this process — Try naming a single
American daily newspaper or TV network that was <em>unequivocally</em> against
the US attacks on Libya, Iraq, Afghanistan, Yugoslavia, Panama,
Grenada, and Vietnam. Or even against any two of them. How about one?
Which of the mainstream media expressed real skepticism of The War on
Terror in its early years?</span></div>
