"As the regime gears up to wage a new Cold War against Russia over its alleged "aggression" against the "democratic" (read: pro-U.S.) state of Georgia, it is time to remind ourselves once again that the first Cold War was a scam of epic proportions perpetrated by both the Democrats and the Republicans, for the sole purpose of providing an excuse for the worldwide expansion of Anglo-American imperialism and mercantilism. The idea that there was a Soviet threat to the U.S., indeed to the entire West-with-a-capital-W, was simply invented to "scare the hell out of the American people" as the sinister Senator Arthur Vandenberg advised President Harry Truman to do in 1947 in order to sell the Cold War, which brought to America crushing taxation and debt and the institution of peacetime military slavery, euphemistically called the "draft."
It is important for critics of current American foreign policy to better develop a detailed understanding of the true nature of the Cold War, in order to better debunk the anti-Russian war propaganda that is now emanating like a noxious gas from Washington. To this end I've compiled a list of books and articles that I have read, along with some comments on each, that all reveal the true nature of the Cold War. It is my hope that these works will help to debunk the current propaganda war which may just be the opening salvo of the next great world-historic "war" that will replace the current "War on Terror" once that hobbyhorse has been worn out." http://www.lewrockwell.com/orig8/spielberg7.html [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
