Defiance Why Did US President Eisenhower Tell Americans To Be Wary Of
“The US Military-Industrial Complex” Edition
Oooowwwmmm?
Sent out a zinger the other day, going to US media outing the
people, assuming they were people, who done 9/11.
Ooooowh!
Shit THAT hit someone's spot!
OK,
So GW and Cheney didn't fly the planes into the WTC.
Maybe
they were drones, controlled from somewhere deep in Outer Bahrania?
Does
it matter?
The
unspoken accusations go to the US military - and it's industrial -
psychological complexities.
Guess
so.
America
is a right exception, today, to how the world has worked, to now.
Indeed,
since the 1776 Revolutionary separation from Britain, and America's
Independence, she's been a roaring exception to how the world has
worked, and had worked, prior to this newfangled thing called
“democracy” was installed in Washingmachinetown.
Newfangled
thing called “democracy”, of course, to the lost tribes
staggering around the western hemisphere for the last [recorded]
6000-something years.
Not
new to the Hopi Americans, or to the other Nations on the American
continent possibly - for millennia - before Chrinkle Columbus washed
ashore.
And
in other parts of the planet, Democracy had actually existed very
well thang-YOOO!
for - well..., since the beginnings of “time”. “Time” being
a very strange thing to most True Fellas of the planet, prior to the
Hebrews inventing it.
Hopi
Americans advised the whiteguys who drew up the system in the new
states of Untied Whiteguys, on some aspects of how to build a
Democracy, that works.
And
of course, the whiteguys of the west can only relate back to ancient
Greece and Socrates and Plato Et Al, when they go on about how grand
Democracy is, and how much they respect the founders of it in ancient
Greece. ET cetera....
Things
must've been pearly for most Americans in the years immediately
following 1776, what with it being open slather on any loose limey?
Haven't
read a lot of American history, but it is interesting.
But,
from some of it, I recall lots of very bad vibes once the railways
got off the Stephenson's Rocket stages, and became the massive boon
to travelers and, railroad barons.
It
seems this grand dream of the Independent Democratic Republic of USA,
overflowing with HUGE potential, and, FREEDOM from the various types
of oppressive and stagnating monarchies ruling the western world,
drew the crowds, let's say, from all over-populated and impoverished
Britain, Eurape, and all points under the hexes of the mad kings and
queens, etc.
But,
not only did rightminded vagabonds clamber onto ships for the new
world, some not so vagabondish went and damned-well built their own
ships to sail to this new pot of plunder.
And
with ready cash, then called GOLD GOLD GOLD!, in their purses, enough
to buy any passer-by, for the night or for their life, these rich
bastards from - Eurape - Britain, and all points under the hexes of
the mad kings and queens, etc., could get exactly what they wanted,
and a slave or forty - for life.
In
those bad old days of desperate whiteguys, long lost already off the
Road Of Honorable Cultures, where Wisdom held precedence over rude
and plunderous ways, the “Natives” were regarded as brutal
inconveniences for the new arrivals wanting to find their own shangri
la, so polite requests weren't common, from the whiteside of the soon
to begin wars.
As
the whitearse had already invented gunpowder and guns, they thought
they didn't have to be Respecting of the Original Peoples.
And,
like always, lust for wealth, especially land, turns the best of us
into evil pieces if shit, in no time flat.
So
all calls from the wiser whiteguys, to Respect the Land Owners, went
down like a lead balloon.
And,
like always before long some greedy idiot with a loud voice and an
ego, was shouting the Indigenies down as apes, not humans, good for
killin', etc.
“Good
for killin'..., to
git their LAND!”, was
an easy sell to the hungry newcomers.
'Specially
after a Redskin spoke back, or worse!
So
Honorable behavior went out the tent door quick-smart.
So
when the railroad was refined to being the people mover it was, while
all this “Indian-killin'” was being encouraged, things went down
hill REALFAST - for
the Indians, of course, but for Democracy too.
Railroad
barons were racing from the East coast to the west, and were forming
armies to capture the land from the Indigenous Owners, but their main
hunger was to claim as much of the new frontier land before the other
whiteguys could.
And
OOOooowhwhwh! SHIT did it go fucksies thereafter!
Goodbye
Democracy! Was nice dreamin' 'bout ya!
And
a ra-dee-raa-dee-raa-dee it went.
So,
some 150, 180 years or so later, a hellavalot of Americans were 1,
enlisted in the military to fight the wars for others in Eurape and
around, and 2, were possibly not so stupid as to not have intelligent
resentment at how off the rails, their Homeland had gone, in terms of
politics, in terms of economics, and in terms of democracy, in terms
of freedom for all?
Since
the War of Independence, then the Civil War in the 1860s, lots of
folks, on all sides, knew things were “touchy” let's say, and so
there would have been considered movements to ensure no nation with
one o' them fancy ponse monarchs was ever gonna march in here and
take us over, and that there was seen a righteous and, DEMOCRATIC
need for the people to arm themselves, against tyranny, from
within.
Lots
of the type who held high the intelligent need for the People to have
power, rather than it being all in the hands of the king or queen,
were also in the military services.
So
it stands to reason that within the forces, there would be an
ever-alert watch, on how the “Democracy” was traveling, and that
many soldiers, sailors and later airforce personnel, would see
rightly, that it is always their Duty to take issue with whomever is
clearly, provably destroying the inherent rights of freedom, and
liberty, from not only their own clans and communities' peoples, but
from ALL the people of the land they loved so much, and went to war
elsewhere to defend.
By
the end of world war 2, we can be sure that shitloads of US military
personnel, Vets and those still at home, would have noted the changes
to the nation, over their lives, and over the wars of the 20th
century.
I
mean, most of them would have been fairly well trained and
disciplined servicemen, and women, and would be witnessing, from a
distance, the changes that were occurring across the USA.
To
a highly trained and disciplined Warrior, watching their own nation
or village decline in self-discipline aspects, which most often also
translates as a decline in self-respect, they'd also be clear minded
enough, some perhaps only, to know instinctively, that the short and
long term dangers to one and all, of a society and culture gone too
loose and undisciplined,
overcome
by endless insatiable desires for and over-consumption of, everything
the free-marketeers put in front of them, were terminal, deadly, and
of HUGE proportions.
Watching
this in their own country would have been sending the military Vets,
and serving members crazy!
So,
after the end of world war one, the 1920s in the nations of the
“”victors”, the “allied west”, was a decade of booming
wealth-creation, and reckless explosions of people and cultures
breaking all old and staid, but also reserved and well thought out
traditions.
When
a [white] person is caught up in the middle of such cultural shifts,
they rarely see the dangers.
Adolescents
taking drugs, driving super fast cars, screwing every sheila they
can, and vice-a-versa.
But
the new post world war 1 shift from the draconian and
ultra-conservative to libertarian lawlessness, not to be looked so
down on when it's kids, was being enjoyed by all ages.
The
momentum had begun, and there was no way of slowing, steering it back
onto a more mature and balanced track, or stopping it.
And
to now, it still has not slowed, been redirected, or stopped.
Wealthy
fools are racing ahead of the masses with “the devil may care”
attitudes, in all manner of moneymaking, inventing shit, SHIT, with
absolutely NO intuition or prescience as to the detriment to body, of
user and of planet, mind of user and of community, or soul, of the
existence, one and all.
And,
from the outside, be one in, such as the military, and, let's say
with some time, experience and wisdom up their sleeves, or like this
idiot, in extreme exile outside of the outer margins, people can
easily recognize the failures such freedoms make, in personal and
cultural psychology.
And,
I'm not the only bloke in the cosmos, who concludes, that the
“modern” social psychology, and “trend” and prospectus for
the future, IS A FUCKING DISASTER!
NOT!
Because some media piece of shit with a fancy indoctrination and
endless wealth can manipulate words to make everyone believe
socialism is evil. But that doesn't help.
NOT!
That somewhere there's a COMMUNIST CONSPIRACY about to be enacted,
which will have us ALL THE SAME?!$%^?!?, all wearing the same
clothes, all doing the same jobs, all driving the same prams, all
only allowed HALF A BAAAYBEE!
The
FUCKING DISASTER, is the modern free market libertarian over-consume
and buy-another-heart-lung-combo culture of CRAPitalism.
Again...,
I'm not the only bloke who sees this, who can DO HIS MATHS, and can
arrive at THE RIGHT ANSWER!
So...,
when Eisenhower warned the modern western world against the
“military-industrial complex”, whose side was Eisenhower on?
I
don't know enough about the man, to opine on his preferences or
wisdom, in terms of doing his outright best for the people of
America.
From
what I do know of him, he was a pretty intelligent and good-minded
President, and wasn't a dud, puppet, like some since his time.
But..,
what would I know?
America
was roaring along in terms of markets and wealth-creation after the
2nd
world war, although I think the late 1940s were still recovery mode
for it.
But
many aspects of the free market and crapitalism might not have
matured then, because of the new age of technology and the effects it
does have on markets and crapitalism, but on people and on therefore,
social and cultural psychology.
So
he might well have been unaware of the downsides to the directions
the post war worlds were taking and heading to, and as is the job in
part, of a President, there would have been a duty to go with the
people, in trend and culture, etc.
But
he might also have been a pro-development and pro-free-market type,
loving the fluff and “bling” of the rampaging and over-excited
mania of a booming nation/world?
So,
looking across the 1st
world today, and the “1st
world” exists in every nation - it's called “the upper class”,
so whole nations can be an upper class of their own, with lower
classes of their upper class in each - Australia an example - and a
disgusting one at that - it's generally accepted that the world is,
or as gone, crazy.
Media
being what it's become, controlled by megalomaniacs with very
specialist, private interests, etc., and, a very dangerous
controlling mechanism, but an entity which relies on the freedom of
fools wanting endlessly to desire MORE, so the media can sell them
MORE, always lean toward the insane preferences of insatiable desire,
of the masses.
So
the media will rarely put the positive case for something like a
military take over of a nation, with the imposition of crazy things
like EQUITABLE SHARING OF THE RESOURCES, or of Scientifically
Calculated Taxation, where the rich bastards have to pay their rent,
and pay their way, like the rest of us?
And,
today, where everything in politics is spoken for the interest of the
corporation, under the banners of each party, none of them are gonna
speak honestly about the disaster that the modern free-market
crapitalist world has become.
Would
President Eisenhower have?
So...,
maybe the “inside job” on the 11th
of September 2001, in New York USA, on Airplanes Into Buildings Day,
was an act so fucking brave, so fucking righteous, that only a small
percentage of Americans could see it so?
AMERICA?
GO - AND - FUCKING - FIGURE!!!
Obviously, my writing this, might be
misinterpreted to be saying I don't give a damn about the thousands
who fell on that day.
Or that the helpers should've stayed home. Etc.
Obviously, I don't think that.
All of them should be Honored.
But America has to relearn how to look back at
that day, and learn that the victims fell in a long a Righteous WAR.
Not against Americans, but FOR Americans.
Most occupants of the WTC were good folks, no
question.
But, it was the centre of the most evil
activities on earth, with the top floors occupied by some very very
very bad corporations and crazy-fuck executives.
What came after, was crazy, with the bad
judgments of who dunnit, and where to go chasing 'em.
Another disgusting failure of CRAPitalism in
the corporations racing in and grabbing the post-Iraq war
redevelopment funds, and the oil reserves, and the military's private
corporate resource suppliers, etc.
And to today, the chaos in Iraq and across the
region is more filth of the warmongers of every persuasion leaping in
to keep it crazy purely for their own profits.
So, like I say,
AMERICA, GO FIGURE YOUR PRIORITIES!
