What else is new? The veneer is wearing thin and the state is preparing to impose more restictive laws over all who oppose them and <a href="http://www.lewrockwell.com/orig10/peden1.1.1.html" target="_blank">their policies</a>. It is the way of all empires. The ancient Romans tried to escape their government and that led to the "dark Ages" which has led to US... the empire never went away, it has just evolved.

The Pentagon aims to achieve a disarming and unanswerable first-strike capability, including ASW, of course. When it gets really close-the capability-the Russians will only have one defense: Launch On Warning. When the put the anti-missile missiles in Poland. A terrible mistake because of Launch On Warning forced on them by the bloody fools in the Pentagon. Nuclear Winter. We have one chance: Study Bob Aldridge-<a href="http://www.plrc.org-and" target="_blank">www.plrc.org-and</a> understand that US Nuclear Primacy is suicidal - and please, try to make politicians and everybody understand the facts, i.e. Trident-2 D5 and Minuteman-3 linked to NAVSTAR obtain a CEP of 30-40 metres and that´s enough to destroy any hard target. And that´s not necessary for defense ! Are we going to commit suicide because of the bloody fools in Pentagon´s office for First-Strike Plans ? Bob Aldridge resigned because a First-Strike Capability is suicidal. It´s worse than a nightmare.

That was my first book, "Welcome to the USSA" from 2005 predicting an economic collapse and comparing it to the USSR. Karzai was a former Unocal employee and his very first piece of legislation he put through the day after he was installed was a contract to allow Unacol to get the pipeline for the Baku-Tblisi-Ceyhan project.

You think they'd give up after the last foul-up where the big showing of captured Iranian arms was called off at the last minute when someone noticed that all the arms on display where from everywhere but Iran. As the saying goes, tell a lie long enough... I see the "Iranian weapons are flooding Iraq!" meme still refuses to die.
