      Does all this sound like the United States is really promoting freedom for Iraq? Shouldn’t we be asking ourselves why this nation ever promoted and passed, “The Netherlands Invasion Act,” which allows our U.S. Military to rescue any U.S. Personnel brought to trial in “The Hague.” Doesn’t this expose the complete lack of equality for other nations, while destroying the very basic freedoms so many of us once fought for? Didn’t this nation once set a shining example to others, rather than this steady diet of embarrassing acts and preemptive wars that we’re now all ashamed of?

      During World War II, those soldiers that returned, all experienced the terrible aftermath of killing and vowed that war should only be a last resort after all other alternatives were exhausted. Shouldn’t we be evaluating why our twentieth century closed with almost thirty-five thousand American-air sorties bombing Serbia and Kosovo, under the direction of the United Nations? And although those particular acts of war may have been justified, do we really understand that we destroyed almost all of the Yugoslavian power and water filtration plants, railroads, bridges, and a majority of their petroleum reserves - essentially annihilating the Yugoslavian culture and its small industrial and social infrastructures for years to come. Paradoxically, the twenty-first century started with a similar destruction of Afghanistan - and now, more recently, the United States has unilaterally initiated this ridiculous preemptive act of religious aggression against Iraq, a country of less than twenty-six million people, with Lebanon, Jerusalem, Iran, and Syria and the entire region of the Middle East probably next in line. As a result, North Korea, China, and even Russia are all taking steps to protect themselves from our apparent worldwide colonization and policing tactics. Yes, America is once again becoming very familiar with the scars of war, scars that will never heal for the thousands of families both here and abroad that have been touched by death or injury, all because of our reckless decision to take this country to war before all other efforts were exhausted. Could it be that these Shadowed Money Barons intentionally create these endless skirmishes so they can make huge profits? Current estimates for rebuilding all these countries exceed trillions of dollars per state, which is far more than any of these now dependent colonies can ever afford. And since their GNP has dropped so dramatically, the United States, and particularly “We the People,” [the working class] will never be able to regain the minimal prosperity we once enjoyed. Therefore, our tax dollars will play a major role in the recovery of so many countries well into the future and certainly well into the twenty-first century. But worse yet, while we as Americans are spending enormous amounts of tax dollars on revitalizing and redirecting all these other nations, we’re not revitalizing our own floundering economy, which is presently riddled with corrupt un-audited no-bid contracts for these wealthy Money Barons; trillions of dollars in loans and deficits; the decentralization of human services to humankind; and the obvious deregulation of standards while our dysfunctional government over regulates our own citizens. And since all these small foreign states were actually stripped of their sovereignty, our military occupation will be required for years and years, as more and more American soldiers are being forced to leave their families and perhaps even die to protect almost eight hundred military bases we currently operate in other countries, which aren’t very happy that we Americans are there. Iraq, the Middle East, France, Germany, Russia and China, all wonder if the United States isn’t unilaterally deploying this country’s military force for geopolitical and economic advantage. And many now question this unrealistic quest for “Worldwide Freedom,” under a “One World Order” when it’s very likely these Invisible Money Barons are only interested in their profits and the total control of the rich mineral deposits of the Middle East.
