Those Brave and Intelligent Americans

<body> Those Brave Intelligent People Among Us! It is beneficial for the United States to occasionally look in the mirror at itself. Consider the following "brave" people that are shown as examples, and the great tragedies their cowardice made possible: Members of Congress and other government personnel fleeing the buildings on May 26, 2006. The reason? Workers' tools sounded like gunfire. Members of Congress and other government personnel fleeing the buildings. 2005. The reason? A small single-engine plane had strayed into a no-fly zone many miles from Washington. Repeated wholesale evacuation of multiple airline terminals, and ordering departing airlines to return. The reasons? A single airport passenger screening device found unplugged. After a passenger had passed through screening, the screener thought that something looked suspicious in the carry-on baggage. Many other similar scenarios. U.S. Invading Korea U.S. invading a country composed of mostly poor peasants, using the world's most powerful military machine. Killing hundreds of thousands of poor peasants, including women, children and babies. Invasion based upon what would become the standard lie by White House politicians. U.S. Invading Vietnam World's most powerful military machine invading a country composed mostly of farmers barely eking out a living. Seeking to support the invasion upon White House lies: Vietnamese gunboat fired at a U.S. destroyer. Repeated slaughter of women, children and infants during the Vietnam War by the invading Americans. Torturing and murdering a reported 40,000 civilians, peasants, under the Phoenix Program. The arrogant argument used to invade a third-world impoverished country: U.S. does not want the people to choose a communist for of government. Followed by years of other lies to a gullible American public. Invading Laos and Cambodia in the process and lying to the American public that this invasion did not occur. Invading Grenada During the Reagan administration, invading the island of Grenada on the false argument that the extension of an airport runway, to generate tourist traffic, was a threat to the United States. Invading Iraq On a pattern of serial lying that anyone short of a moron would recognize as lies. Repeated slaughter of Iraqi women, children and infants during U.S. invasion of Iraq. It had been reported that the U.S. invasion was responsible for between 100,000 and 250,000 deaths in Iraq. Latest publicized example of massacres by U.S. military personnel was the murders of 24 men, women and children in Haditha on November 19, 2005. Many were shot at close range as they pleaded for their lives. Included in those massacre were mothers trying to shield their children, who were then both murdered. The victims of the "brave" Marines (called "heroes in the U.S.) included a one-year-old child. One of the murdered victims was a 76-year-old, his leg amputated from diabetes, was in a wheelchair. One victim had his intestines dangling from his body. The slaughtered was initially subjected to a cover-up (another prominent U.S. inbred culture). Apologists, such as Rep. John Murtha, excused the murders as "over-reaction." A Washington Post article (May 27, 2006) stated of the murders by U.S. military personnel: Witnesses to the slaying of 24 Iraqi civilians by U.S. Marines in the western town of Haditha say the Americans shot men, women and children at close range. ... A Haditha resident watched and listened from his home as Marines went from house to house killing members of three families. He heard his neighbor, Younis Salim Khafif, plead in English for the lives of himself and his family. "I heard Younis speaking to the Americans, saying: I am a friend. I am good. But they killed him and his wife and daughters." The 24 Iraqi civilians slain included children and women who were trying to shield them, witnesses told a Washington Post correspondent in Haditha. The girls killed inside Khafif's house were ages 14, 10, 5, 3 and 1, according to death certificates. [In the home of Abdul Hamid Hassan Ali, 76] ... he had used a wheelchair since diabetes forced a leg amputation years ago. ... In the house with Ali and his 66-year-old wife, Khamisa Tuma Ali, were ... 4-year-old Abdullah, 8-year-old Iman, 5-year-old Abdul Rahman and 2-month-old Asia. Marines entered shooting. Most of the shots--in Ali's house and two others--were fired at such close range that they went through the bodies of the family members and plowed into walls or the floor, doctors at Haditha's hospital said. Al took nine rounds in the chest and abdomen, leaving his intestines spilling out of the exit wounds in his back, according to his death certificate. The Marines moved to the house next door. Inside were ... an 8-year-old son, five young daughters and a 1--year-old girl staying with the family, according to death certificates and neighbors. The Marines shot them at close range and hurled grenades into the kitchen and bathroom. Khafif's pleas could be heard across the neighborhood. Four of the girls died screaming. Only 13-year-old Safa Younis lived--saved, she said, by her mother's blood spilling onto her, making her look dead when she fell, limp, in a faint. Townspeople led a Post reporter this week to the girl they identified as Safa. Wearing a ponytail and track suit, she said her mother had died trying to gather the girls. Safa burst into tears after a few words. The remains of the 24 lie today in a single cemetery, called Martyr's Graveyard. Stray dogs scrounge in the deserted homes. "Democracy assassinated the family that was here," graffiti on one of the houses declares. John Sifton of Human Rights Watch, which helped break the news that spurred the military investigation, said he had been told by Marine officers that the rampage lasted three to five hours and involved two squads of Marines. [Other U.S. Traits: Pathological Cover-Ups and Lying] Although Marines' accounts offered in the early stages of the investigation described a running gun battle, those versions of the story proved to be false, officials briefed by the Marines said. Some Iraqis reported that the Marines burned houses in the vicinity of the attack, but two people familiar with the case, including Hackett, the lawyer, said warplanes conducted air strikes, dropping 500-pound bombs on more than one house. This is significant ... it would indicate that senior commanders, who must approve such strikes and who would also used aircraft to assess their effects, were paying attention to events in Haditha that day. None of these atrocities could have occurred, or the hundreds of thousands of others, without the serial lying of White House politicians, the accomplices in Congress, and their shills in the media (plus those who voted for them, or who supported the invasion). Sampling of Other Traits Repeated torture of detainees by U.S. military personnel during the invasion and occupation of Iraq. Massive carpet bombing of Afghan civilians by U.S. military aircraft flying at 35,000 feet. Missile strikes on civilian targets from Naval aircraft far out to sea. U.S. invasions of countries without equal military capability, mostly third-world countries. These include Panama, Grenada, Korea, Vietnam, Iraq. Never against such powerful targets as the Soviet Union or Russia. After bombing of U.S. military barracks in Beirut, U.S. ran for safety, pulling out the troops. American Bravery in Iraq After invading a country that was militarily a fraction the size of the U.S. military, after laying the country to waste with it's carpet bombing and destruction of entire cities, after destroying the cities utilities, after destabilizing the country, and destroying one of the most advanced secular societies in the Middle East, the brave ones in America, all those that either perpetrated the catastrophic damage or supported it, now want to depart and demand that Iraq governs itself. An enlightening book is Those Ugly Americans: 20th and 21st Centuries. The Intelligence Level of Certain Americans The intelligence level of certain Americans--a hell of a lot of them--fall into a similar pattern. For instance: Electing a president, a former alcoholic, who brag that he doesn't read; who claims to get message from his so-called "God;" who repeatedly lies and assumes the public is dumb enough to believe anything (and does!). Being fed the same pattern of lies, year after year, by its political leaders, and swallowing it like morons. Being repeatedly told that terrorists were planning to hijack U.S. airliners and doing nothing about the known simple and inexpensive measures that would have stopped the 9/11 hijackings, and 50 years of prior hijackings. Refusing to address their role and their conduct in generating worldwide hatred for Americans and the unprecedented generating of terrorists against Americans. Being repeatedly told by knowledgeable insiders, for decades, that people in and associated with the CIA were smuggling drugs into the United States. Ignoring the culture within the FBI revealed by FBI agents in the Boston and New York City offices being involved for years in murders with organized crime figures and the Mafia. Being repeatedly told by insiders about other forms of criminal activities involving people in key government positions--in the three branches of government--and doing nothing about it, limiting their reactions to such "important" matters as the ball games or their kids. Although the list is endless, these are a few highlights. Among the Accomplices in These Atrocities The president of the United States who ordered the invasion of Iraq in a pattern of repeated serial lying. The members of Congress who approved legislation giving the president the authority to initiate a war, knowing that the reasons given were false. The media people who approved of the invasion, the serial lying prior to and then after the invasion. The people who approved of the invasion, the people who voted for the president, and the members of Congress who approved the invasion. These are among the same people who lied, who covered up, who ignored, the corruption in government related to the harm being inflicted upon themselves by their "leaders." The Arrogance of Those Accomplices! As it relates to the support for the invasion of Iraq: Tens of thousands of dead Iraqi civilians, entire cities laid to rubble, utilities destroyed, unprecedented hatred for Americans, unprecedented growth of people (terrorists) resulting from the invasion--justified because U.S. politicians--and their shills--believe the Iraq's leader, Saddam Hussein, should be replaced and the juvenile thinking that the volatile mixture of tribes, cultures, religious fanatics, could be converted to a democracy. Overlooking the fact that Iraq was one of the most advanced secular countries in the Middle East, with some of the most advanced human rights record for women. That crime was almost non-existent (as compared to the massive brutal killings occurring daily in the United States). It is true that Saddam Hussein was brutal to his enemies, but in a country where beheading had been a common practice prior to Saddam's reign--and after the U.S. removed him--possibly his occasional brutal acts were more suitable to that environment that the U.S. practice of providing free room and board and other prison benefits for brutal murderers. That a very small percentage of the population was in prison (far below the percentage of Americans held in prison). That Iraq had no so-called weapons of mass destruction, the magical word used by U.S. war-mongers and their shills. Certainly less than Israel, with its several hundred nuclear missiles. And if they did acquire any advanced weapons, in light of the thousands of nuclear weapons by the United States, Iraq would never attempt an attack upon the United States, a country that probably has a million times greater military capacity. That the Reagan-Bush administrations had secretly armed and funded Iraq's military buildup during the 1980s--while secretly arming Iran. Now that U.S. military people are dying after invading Iraq, the brave Americans are whining for them to leave--after laying the country to waste and after they assisted in putting the military personnel into harm's way! As it related to the invasion of Vietnam. Ok to kill hundreds of thousands of poor Vietnamese because U.S. politicians didn't want these people to select the communist form of government--the same form of government in China and elsewhere that today is funding the U.S. deficit. By the actions and inactions of U.S. people, 58,000 Americans were killed; many more wounded, some maimed for life (and forgotten); tens of thousands of Vietnamese murdered in the CIA's Phoenix Program. These examples can go on and on. Examples of this arrogance and worldwide terrorism are found in many books written by many insiders. This site has several books detailing and documenting the actions of those ugly Americans. These references do not apply to those good Americans, who have protested the arrogant misconduct that exists within the United States. They are the true Americans who should be honored. Sampling of Great Tragedies Caused or Enabled by The Corruption in Key Government Positions That Whistleblowers Sought to Expose and Halt There Were, Are, and Will Continue To Be Consequences Of the Culture of Corruption, Cover-Ups, and Retaliation Against Whistleblowers 50 Years of Corruption-Enabled Events That Motivated The Former Government Agent, Whistleblower, and Activist to Continue His Futile David vs. Goliath Efforts Corruption-Enabled Events That Motivated The Former Government-Agent Whistleblower Sampling of Consequences Prior, During, and Subsequent to Legal, Judicial and Justice Department Attacks on Whistleblower Great American Tragedies Enabled by Lawyers, Judges, Department of Justice Personnel's Simultaneous Attacks on Whistleblower As a result of the widespread corruption in overt and covert government operations, the systemic cover-ups that treat high-level corruption as the "third-rail," and the retaliation against whistleblowers, great American tragedies have repeatedly occurred, and will continue to occur. 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. Harm inflicted on former federal agent and whistleblower during multiple schemes to silence him. Sampling of Early Consequences TWA Flight 800 U.S. Embassy Bombings 9/11 Easily-Preventable Multiple Hijackings 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 Consequences of Corruption, Cover-Ups, And Retaliation Felonies Not Limited to Aviation 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. And many other forms. These offenses are described in the books written by insiders. Corruption of the Type Described at this site does not occur in a vacuum. High-level corruption in one area is simply one tentacle of a widespread culture of corruption. And the consequences of that corruption−and the endemic cover-ups−have consequences in other areas. The culture of corruption affects the people and the nation in many other ways, That includes the latest series of financial frauds that has occurred in the housing and financial sectors. Also, the effect of the endemic corruption and endemic cover-ups−major parts of the culture in the United States−that enablers successful terrorist attacks upon U.S. interests. Harm to People Overseas From Culture Of High-Level Corruption and Lies 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.
