A DAY OF INFAMY
Just before the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor by the Japanese, there was a delegation sent to Washington by Hirohito, the Emperor of that culture and country. The delegation to establish a treaty to avoid any bloodshed was being worked out right up until the Japanese forces struck Oahu on that Sunday morning of such questionable merit and terminal result.
The Israelis attacked Iran without warning this last Friday, supposedly, and once again, calling the murderous attack one of defense. When Pearl Harbor was attacked, the Japanese also considered the attack one of preventive defense. The outrage by the leadership of the USA was not ostensibly about the surprising nature of the attack or its huge loss of equipment and life. A lot of attention was directed to how the Japanese, by sending the peace delegation, had hoodwinked the US leadership in the most heinous and cowardly way…thereby lulling the American leadership to believe that nothing of any violent nature might happen while the peace negotiations were going on.
The only way that an American government of today can so hoodwink the public into believing that the peace accords sought with the Iranians was anything but a stalking horse operation of the most cowardly and deadly sort, but it was also one of shameful complicity by what’s become of the national news media across the United States. They are feeding the public literal written and verbalized shit while that public is locked into a dark closet left to become the vacuous mushrooms they are being groomed to be. The movie called the Matrix had nothing on this new age of brains locked away and being fed this crap while the only real lives are being lived by those who have stupendous amounts of money they have gotten mostly by hoodwinking governments at home and abroad.
The word shame was effective at beginning the downfall of another attempted autocrat by the name of Joseph McCarthy years ago, but this sort of revelation can have no effect today simply because someone like America’s leader, having very evident and advance senility, cannot feel such an emotion or really be sorry for anything. That a small-town newspaper has to bring this information to you is also a real shame, as what happened, with only a little effort on anyone’s part, is also easily fact-checkable on the Internet. They all know Fox, the networks, and even MSNBC, which is supposed to be liberal but isn’t, have to know what is written here and the cowardly shame of its own leadership. Nothing will be said.
Israel is committing genocide in Gaza. Israel attacked Lebanon in a defensive strike. Israel is now defensively attacking Iran in the same way while all the time yelling a the top of its lungs that so much of the world is becoming more and more antisemitic. That is blatantly not true. What is happening is that, with no thanks going to the U.S. mass media, the world is becoming more anti-Israeli and anti-war. How Israel has positioned itself to become a violently attacking nation following its origin from suffering from exactly that kind of behavior by the Germans is almost beyond belief. The author of this article understands. He has PTSD from a war. The PTSD allows for one who suffers to constantly be called back, and this is what’s happened to Israel. The Israelis are totally unaware that they have become one with those who gave them the PTSD.
As the Israel-Iran war proceeds, it is left to all of us not close by but easily ad closely affected to wonder if the Iranians already have a nuclear weapon and, if it does, then is it going to be required to prove it. If they prove it, then what? Migrants are being rounded up wholesale, with the government headed deep into the biggest cities of the country. So far, the migrants haven’t brought out arms to resist, but how long can that last?
For reasons this American public is completely unaware of, thanks to the dumbing down of its mass media, the nation heads into very troubled combat waters and has no idea it’s headed there. The new day of infamy proved that the current leadership has no sense of shame, that yellow cowardice can be repainted to look like patriotism, and so much more. The L.A. protests also proved that both the leaders of the California National Guard and the United States Marine Corps will go ahead and follow orders they know are illegal and immoral. Infamy is taking a back seat to catastrophic outrage.
