The Most Crucial "Election" in the History of Humankind
by B.Z. Bywyd, October 10, 2004
Dear Editor:
"In a time of universal
deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act."
--George Orwell
The world approaches what is arguably the most crucial "election"
in the history of humankind, one which will decide the direction of America's
immense military and nuclear arsenal, as well as the ideals of the European
colonial (ie. Roman) "Republican" political agenda. Some find
in the Bush regime a frightening premonition of Hitler's Third Reich,
but being brutally honest-- the Bush regime is more dangerous in the extreme.
While the Third Reich perfected political propaganda, their ends always
justifying horrific means, keep in mind they didn't have a global television
network, 24 hour right-wing smear-mongers, or billionaires like Rupert
Murdoch pounding their message into millions of minds-- they had newsreels
and posters. While Hitler had at his disposal a vast military force, with
ruthless special forces and death camps, he didn't have a global satellite
survelliance network, a nuclear arsenal capable of incinerating entire
countries, stealth bombers, aircraft carriers, or Trident submarines.
If he had, we would all be living in a much more ruthless world, pledging
allegiance to the superior white race.
George W. Bush and Richard Cheney have taken us halfway around the world
once again into Hitler's nightmare. This time, however, they are playing
a global game of corporate Monopoly¨. The millions of citizens are
but pawns in struggle between two factions of extremely wealthy and powerful
elite for control of the last resources on the planet. The far-right ideologues
known as "Project for a New American Century" are the reactionary
revolutionaries whose motto was carved by Karl Rove into the oily political
landscape: "Win at any cost." This "Cabal" has a secret
army of operatives at its disposal, deploying "destabilization"
around the world and hatred at home, keeping pace with another of their
mottos "Order out of Chaos."
Meanwhile, the Republican extremists' appeal to American "democratic"
ideals is a monstrously ludicrous exercise in cognitive dissonance. Their
seizing power through a corrupted election in 2000, with a biased Supreme
Court appointing the son of their benefactors, was as far from a democratic
process as having a King declare himself ruler. Though they lost the popular
vote, at every step the Bush regime has deployed an expoitative agenda,
shredding our hard-won civil rights, environmental protections, and economic
prosperity.
Make no mistake, the fate of the Earth is in the balance here, and these
far-right "chickenhawks" have extended the American warfront
to the point where nuclear launching is on the table as an inevitable
option. Dr. Strangelove is chuckling with George Jr. in a secure underground
missile base while Dick Cheney counts his Swiss accounts...
Wise up, America! The media has been squashed beneath the boots of these
criminals! We aren't being told the truth about the most critical evidence
of the time-- regarding the 9-11 attacks, the Saudi-corporate connections,
the Bush-CIA history of drugs and corruption, or even the FACT that a
former attorney general of the country (Ramsey Clark) has launched impeachment
proceedings as well as war crimes indictments against the Bush regime.
He can't get even 60 seconds of recognition by the corporate media!
How can a society have any chance of "election" when the citizens
are overwhelmingly ignorant of the most crucial factors at stake, terrorized
by a political spin-masters and corporate criminals, and decieved to an
extent that can only be considered tyrannical?
Meanwhile, fellow Earthlings, the planet is reminding us that greater
issues of survival are pressing on us. Our immune systems, our atmosphere,
our oceans, what's left of our wildlands and forests, are all caught up
in the most rapid and radical extinction since the fall of the dinosaurs.
Is it possible that the Bush regime's far-right reactionary revolution
is all a carefully-scripted distraction from the needs of a suffering
planet? If so, they've succeeded beyond their most arrogant ambitions.
"Human history becomes more and more a race between education and
catastrophe."
--H. G. Wells
