Yesterday, the Bush regime unveiled its "National Security Strategy
of the United States of America." The 49-page strategy identifies
additional nations that are considered enemies of, and, therefore, threats to
the United States. The strategy reserves the right for the United States to
preemptively attack these nations. Time magazine's Matt Cooper (remember him
from Scooter Libby infamy?) laughably argues the White House document is only
theoretical and not binding. Similar neo-con doctrine was used to justify the
U.S. invasion and occupation of Iraq. Few U.S. troops in the field in Iraq and
Afghanistan would argue the neo-con policy is "theoretical." Nations
identified as threats to the U.S. and worthy of a U.S. invasion so their "despotic"
governments can be replaced with "democracies," a code word for a
sudden influx of depleted uranium weapons and bunker buster bombs, pedophiliac
and sado-masochistic jailers and interrogators, "Christian" missionaries,
private mercenaries and brigands, political show trials of vanquished political
leaders, looting of museums and treasuries, embedded "prostitute"
journalists, and infrastructure "repair" (U.S. military base construction)
companies like Halliburton and Bechtel, include Iran, North Korea, Zimbabwe,
Myanmar, Cuba, Belarus, and Syria. There are also warning shots in the report
fired at China and Russia.
Are depleted uranium weapons, bunker busters, theft
of priceless art, and pedophiliac jailers in Havana's future (and those of Pyongyang,
Damascus, Yangon, Harare, Tehran, and Minsk)?

The Party said that Oceania had never been in alliance with Eurasia. He,
Winston Smith, knew that Oceania had been in alliance with Eurasia as short
a time as four years ago. But where did that knowledge exist? Only in his
consciousness, which in any case must soon be annihilated. And if all others
accepted the lie which the Party imposed -- if all records told the same
tale -- then the lie passed into history and became the truth. "Who
controls the past," ran the Party slogan, "controls the future:
who controls the present controls the past." And yet the past, though
of its nature alterable, never had been altered. Whatever was true now was
true from everlasting to everlasting. It was quite simple. All that was
needed was an unending series of victories over your memory. "Reality
control," they called it; in Newspeak, "doublethink."
--George Orwell, 1984
[The Bush regime and the neo-cons call it "perception
management"]
