HOW DEEP AND HOW WIDE IS THE COVERUP AND CORRUPTION?

Citizens around the world must band together and demand transparency from their governments, as well as hold them accountable for crimes committed in all our names.

If what we hear about a grand jury being assembled to indict Julian Assange for conspiracy or "act of espionage" is true, then citizens of the world must unite and demand that George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, and anyone who has broken International Law (and specifically the Geneva Conventions) or lied/deceived their citizens in order to engage in and/or profit from war, should be brought before an International Criminal Tribunal and/or International Citizen's Tribunal. Furthermore, any DOJ (Dept. of Justice) or political official who fails to prosecute those guilty of breaking International Law (or specifically the Geneva Conventions) or fails to prosecute those who have lied/deceived its citizens in order to engage (or continue to engage) in, and/or profit from war, should also be brought before an International Criminal Tribunal and/or International Citizen's Tribunal.

This looking to prosecute/assassinate and lay blame on scapegoats for exposing heinous lies (by our governments) and crimes committed by our governments must stop now, and the real criminals (those who have tortured, committed gross atrocities against innocent civilians, and have caused the reckless killing of innocent civilians) brought before a court of law.

OUTRAGED BY OUR FOREIGN POLICY

I'm sorry that I'm a day late in publishing this post. I received a DVD of a film called "Hijacking Catastrophe" a couple of days ago; and I watched that film last night.
-
Watching that 2004 documentary was difficult and made me sick to my stomach.
-
The fact that we are continuing the BUSH DOCTRINE and the NEOCON agenda (accelerated by George W. Bush), and also continuing Wolfowitz 's PNAC philosophy, is unreal, and I think, a recipe for disaster (according to Chalmers Johnson). READ SYNOPSIS of the film AT FILM.COM

-

If you look up the word NEOCON, use the Britannica and U.S. History Encyclopedia ... it appears that Wikipedia has been corrupted by those who wish to place blame largely on Liberals (both Political Parties are to blame for our foreign policy).

[By the way, ... we're getting tired of certain people always wanting to keep tabs on who we are and what is said on this blog. SEE "ABOUT US" PAGE

We don't mind people who are seriously interested in what we have to say (even though it is often critical of politicians, political parties, and/or foreign policy and other policies), ... we just have a problem with people who want to block what we have to say. Unfortunately, George Orwell's society is becoming more and more a reality for the majority of us.

We do edit this blog continuously. If we think we have new information, we will add it; or if there is wrong information, we will correct it; however, we always post links that help corroborate what we have to say.]

PRESIDENT BUSH ON FOREIGN POLICY

Sorry guys, yes we’re back to commenting on topics talked about on “Morning Joe” again. President Bush has spoken regarding his foreign policy.

It’s amazing to me that these "so called leaders" have such a lack of creativity and can only envision one way of engaging or dealing with a crisis. It boggles the mind!

I’m sure there have been many points of view on foreign policy and many differing views that don’t involve torture or trampling on the Constitution that would have been just as effective in our efforts to keep this Nation safe.

It is unfortunate that often, stubborn ideology gets in the way almost every time.

Whenever there is crisis, cool heads must prevail and every effort must be made to look for peaceful and effective means to deal with it.

Once that happens, and a consensus is formed, their case must then be made to the American people.
