Wow. How can Americans swallow another shovel full of this shit?

Alex, I have always reffered to Machiavellis Prince when such troubling questions arise. The book was written 700 years ago and still holds as true today as when it was first written. I highly reccomend reading it.


"Beware the leader who bangs the drums of war in order to whip the citizenry into a patriotic fervor; for patriotism is indeed a double edged sword, it both emboldens the blood just as it narrows the mind; and when the drums of war have reached a fevered pitch and the blood bolis with hate, then the leader will have no need in seizing the rights of the citizenry, for the citizenry infused with hate and blinded by fear will give up their rights, and gladly so, how do I know this? this is what I have done, and I am ceasar."- julius ceasar

I got this posted in my blog already.

And I second the literature suggestion.
