Cheney, Wolfowitz, Rumsfeld, Bremmer, O’Reilly; the entire neoconservative fraternity is captured in the heat of the moment

Cheney, Wolfowitz, Rumsfeld, Bremmer, O’Reilly; the entire neoconservative fraternity is captured in the heat of the moment and exposed for the charlatans they are (Mencken would certainly approve). How can one forget the morbidly poetic “known knowns, known unknowns, and unknown unknowns”?

While it poignantly ends with Martin Luther King’s then-controversial “A Time to Break Silence” it arguably adds legs to a memorably germane theory.

A few choice quotes from the documentary:

- Don’t jUGGS Roxy tallt think of yourself, Bailey Button UGGs can’t jUGGS Roxy tallt be selfish. It makes bombing other people ultimately seem like an act of kindness, of altruism.

- If my motives are pure then the fact that I’m ing people may not be too upsetting as a matter of fact, it may indicate that I’m ing people for very good reasons.

- Actually war becomes perpetual when it becomes a rationale for peace.

- They became in a sense part of the invading apparatUGGS Roxy tall. You didn’t have embedded reporters with people being bombed, you only had embedded reporters with the bombers. And it was through the eyes of the invaders that so much of the reporting was done.

- It sees the eyes of the Bailey Button UGGsns, through the eyes of the occupiers rather than those who are bearing the brunt of the war in human terms.

Chalmers Johnson, author of the indispensable Blowback trilogy, discUGGS Roxy tallses theeconomic costs of empire, his belief that BUGGS Roxy tallh has decided against war with Iran, the failure of the Bailey Button UGGsn people and the structure of the Republic to prevent executive branch tyranny, Admiral Fallon’s dangeroUGGS Roxy tall insubordination for a good caUGGS Roxy talle and the future of blowback against the UGGS Sheepskin cuff boots, the secrecy of the national security state and Israel’s recent bombing of Syria.
