As uncomfortable as it may be, it’s way overdue time, after several decades of countless horrendous, documented crimes, to acknowledge the disturbing reality that the US government is a deeply corrupt organization, a military empire that, driven by corporate greed, has blatantly lied, manipulated its own citizenry and the entire world, creating and escalating conflict to fabricate excuses for violent military interventions and economic sanctions against other countries and their democratically elected governments, that dare not to agree with the superpower’s arbitrary rules and demands (rules, that somehow, hypocritically enough, don’t seem to apply to itself), causing endless cycles of destruction and suffering - which, not at all coincidentally, also ensures a virtually unlimited supply of frustrated “enemies” to engage through highly profitable, endless wars.
The capitalistic, evil genius of the vague, but noble-sounding idea of “War On Terror” is that it uses force in its attempt to allegedly fight ideas - but since bad ideologies can not be replaced by other bad ideologies by force, this effort, especially through its highly problematic implementation, will remain both the covert core source of most of the problems it itself is actively causing, for which in the same time it then also shamelessly claims to offer the solutions as well. Not at all coincidentally, this is highly profitable for a few, but also extremely costly for the majority - taxpayers and victims alike. It’s basically an imperialistic perpetuum mobile of epic proportions, an endless quagmire of oil, blood, desperation, sacrifices, suffering, death, war crimes, power games, coercion and shady deals, all driven by greed and imperialistic adventurism, in the interest of attaining one-sided economic advantages and monetary rewards. The more destruction is ultimately caused by the deliberate escalation of conflict, the more reconstruction is needed - and of course, most often, by the same entity, the “peace and freedom-loving” USA Inc., a for-profit corporation and its partners, with its own mercenary force, compiled from either painfully naive and misguided, or disturbingly, borderline psychopathically trigger-happy, uneducated young men, who will end up being used as the disposable tools of the aforementioned criminal, corporate empire, shamelessly posing as a benevolent government, “fighting for democracy”.

Just because this selfish, greedy, reckless international bully’s criminal actions ultimately end up benefiting some of us too, or that this self-appointed, abusive world police force also does some good, mostly for PR reasons, to justify its position as the righteous one, it does not excuse all the other crimes it’s guilty of. The argument that the other side does bad things too, isn’t a valid excuse either to sink just as low, or in some cases, even lower than them. And most importantly, the reason why America can’t achieve its goals peacefully and honestly and can’t appeal to the world’s legal community, leaving only dishonest and criminal means, is exactly because its ulterior motives are neither moral, nor legal. To name just one of the most popular scenarios, there is absolutely nothing right in forcing another country to accept outrageously disadvantageous natural resource “deals” (or rather demands) with the threat of violent interference in their internal affairs - that is how organized crime syndicates operate.
In order to avoid diving too deep into overwhelmingly complicated and to some potentially boring, or controversial socio-political and economic issues, let’s keep this simply about all the unnecessary, unjustified, shameless lies and crimes, all the undeniable, well-documented ways, in which this criminal enterprise has broken international and domestic laws, in this case, specifically in relation to the Republic of Iran.
For those who are still struggling with the basic concept of morality and impartiality, or even critical thinking, I’m sorry, but the more you are blinded by your nationalistic bias, willful ignorance and cognitive dissonance, the more you need to hear this. The American public can not continue to be one of the world’s most ignorant nations, especially when its government has been and it is continuing to cause so much damage around the world politically, socially, economically, environmentally, etc. This is not about how great America is in some ways, it’s about how deeply wrong it is in others and how much better it could be, how easily, if only its own citizenry would finally care enough to grow the backbone it used to have in the ‘60s and '70s and hold its own criminal government responsible... America, not only as a country, but as an idea, used to stand, at least in theory, for something admirably noble, but for the last few decades it became known for being famously selfish, entitled, hedonistic, materialistic, wasteful, greedy, fat and spectacularly, arrogantly ignorant and short-sighted, especially considering its amazing, but sadly unused potential.
The following list, while only in its beginning stages for now, will be a continually growing collection of relevant, informative links, that I hope can be used to help those who have missed out on these important details of contemporary history. If any of you know of any relevant material that you think should be added here, please feel free to post your links in form of comments, underneath. Being informed should be extremely important for any self-respecting, intelligent adult and especially helpful, hopefully even inspirational, in the population’s decision to take politics seriously, as the one force that has possibly the most impact on our daily interactions, as it influences all the laws that ultimately determine every aspect and quality of our lives.
