Deteriorating Values and Culture in the Self-Proclaimed Nation of Freedom and Justice for All Are the actions of large numbers of its people in the United States indicative of the real, rather than self-portrayed, culture of the country? What do such common traits by large numbers of people, and tolerated by others, indicate about the culture of America today? Gang violence throughout America's cities, killing for sport and pleasure, unknown in any major industrial nation in Europe, the Far East, and rivaling Mexico and other violence-riddled nations. The years of corruption in the FBI and other Department of Justice offices, the most feared and dangerous to American people of any government agency. Years of corrupt conduct by people associated with the CIA. The blatant corruption by members of Congress, compounded by such acts as legislating years in prison for citizens committing relatively minor acts, with no protest from the sheep-like public. Massive corruption by federal judges and Justices of the U.S. Supreme Court. The widespread corruption in the bankruptcy courts involving federal judges, federal trustees, lawyers and law firms, and those acting in concert with them, the unlawful and unconstitutional taking from people their life assets after exercising the statutory protections of Chapter 11. Culture of corruption among lawyers. Widespread media cover-ups, deception, and even support for the arrogant and corrupt acts of high government officials. The most classic example being the support of the citizens for President George Bush and the members of Congress who served as a platform for the lying. Media includes the political pundits that almost entirely supported the serial lying that plunged the United States into a bloody quagmire that will continue for generations. The many who enjoy violence, such as boxing matches and pit-bull fights to the death. The many American military personnel sport-like killing of people in countries invaded, including Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan, Iraq, and others. Typical being the following site of U.S. military personnel in Nevada showing delight as they murder Iraqi citizens, media personnel, and ambulance personnel responding to the victims' cries. www.collateralmurder.comj. The standard practice of retaliating against anyone attempting to expose and halt the consequences of corruption of key people in government. Murder of American citizens by FBI agents and the cover-ups, including one cover-up that had astronomical catastrophic consequences. The many members of police forces who kill citizens at the slightest provocation, when such force is totally unnecessary under the circumstances, and being excused as authorized by position. Willingness of most of the American public to kill thousands of Iraqis, including children and infants, that they knew would be killed by using America’s immense military against an almost defenseless country. And then continuing to support the invasion after recognizing that hundreds of thousands of Iraqis killed and maimed. That is, until they start suffering the consequences. The widespread practice of local, state, and federal prosecutors prosecuting people they know to be innocent, planting evidence, using perjured testimony, withholding exculpatory evidence. The large number of its citizens either in prison, formerly in prison, or on probation, for violent crimes. The widespread seizing of assets from people innocent of any crime, and sometimes, never charged. Decades of killing of thousands of often-destitute people in countries invaded by the U.S. military, including Korea, Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Panama, Grenada, Iraq. Includes the slaughter of women and children, some cluttered in groups, machine-gunned into bloody pulps by murdering American soldiers. Widespread corruption throughout high positions in government, with public indifference. The blatant pattern of serial lying by White House and other politicians, with deadly consequences, and the toleration, and even support, by many citizens. Widespread rape of women members of the U.S. military and the usual cover-ups that is inbred in American culture. Refusal of its citizens to show outrage when courageous insiders expose corruption and even subversive actions in overt and covert government operations. And these are only a few examples. Many books have been written on these matters, which are read by only a minute fraction of the American public, a public that is sometimes too lazy, too indifferent, to care. Reasons for American Public's Illiteracy Of High-Level Corruption and Consequences There are, of course, many good Americans. Affecting their ability to react to these conditions are such factors as: Media cover-ups, disinformation. Political pundits lying for those perpetrating the wrongful acts. The almost total cover-ups and even support by virtually every government check and balance for the corruption. The almost total cover-ups and support by media people and media groups. The lack of knowledge of the many books written by government and other insiders seeking to inform the public of these matters. The false impression gained by many people who rely upon television, and the political pundits, to be "informed" of important matters. A person's lack of time to find out about these matters due to the need to earn a living. Long History of Worldwide Harm Resulting from Systemic Corruption, Systemic Cover-Ups, and Massive Human Rights Violations in United States The results of widespread corruption in overt and covert government operations, the gross human rights violations, especially to silence whistleblowers, and the systemic cover-ups, that have caused or enabled to occur decades of worldwide harmful and horrific consequences. Harm to the American public in non-violent areas. Harm to people of other countries. Harm to the few people in the United States fighting the high-level corruption in a meaningful manner. Harm in general. Sampling of Traumatic Consequences Progression of Consequences These few examples of the horrors associated with airline disasters enabled to occur by documented corruption withheld from the American people. The standard culture of cover-ups in the United States enabled the corruption, cover-ups, to mutate into different areas. In the aviation area, although the continuing series of airline disasters eventually came to a halt for other reasons, the culture continued, and enabled to occur a number of easily preventable airline disasters. The inbred culture created the conditions that enabled four groups of terrorists to easily hijack four airliners within a few hours of each other and kill nearly 3,000 people. One of Over 200 Victims Choosing This Way to Die— Made Possible by Many Enablers in United States Victims of Less Catastrophic Events There were many other forms of victims from the systemic high-level corruption. These included for instance victims of the: Department of Justice prosecutorial misconduct, people being falsely charges with crimes in order to improve the prosecutors' career. The explosion of violent crime related to drug smuggling into the United States, in which CIA assets were major players. Series of financial frauds appearing every few years, with the latest housing and financial implosions surfacing in 2008. Seizure of assets from innocent people. These offenses are described in the books written by insiders. Harm to People Overseas From High-Level Corruption in the United States In addition to the decades of harm resulting from the systemic corruption of key people and groups in the U.S. government, affecting aviation safety, financial, human rights, in the United States, there is the harm from outside sources brought about by the actions of U.S. politicians affecting people in other countries—such as the history of invading and killing foreigners—there are the successful "terrorist" attacks made possible by high-level corruption, and then there are the foreigners who are also victims from the same high-level corruption that adversely affects the American, but in a different form. Remains of a girl—about the age of the 9-year-old Killed in Tucson in January 2011. In criminal law, people are accomplices, and guilty, if they know of a criminal act and fail to report it to proper authorities and also to take efforts within their capability to halt their continuation. And there are endless numbers of accomplices that are complicit in these crimes and enablers of the consequences. Suggestion to people outside the United States. Become familiar with the documented systemic corruption in the United States and show the outrage lacking of people in the United States, and: Help expose the endemic corruption that seem to be acceptable to the American people, and maybe wake them up. Help to protect yourselves against the decades of ham inflicted upon people of other countries by the actions of U.S. politicians—supported by much of the American public. Examples: Serial lying by U.S. politicians to use as a pretense to invade Iraq and Afghanistan, killing tens of thousands of innocent people. U.S. politicians shifting enabling blame from their own corrupt actions that encouraged and enabled four groups of terrorists to simultaneously hijack four airliners, and shift the blame to the people of Iraq and Afghanistan—with the help of a dumbed-down American public that is mostly too lazy to learn the truth.
