There is no nonsense so arrant that it cannot be made the creed of the vast majority by adequate governmental action." - Bertrand Russell "The vested interests - if we explain the situation by their influence - can only get the public to act as they wish by manipulating public opinion, by playing either upon the public's indifference, confusions, prejudices, pugnacities or fears. And the only way in which the power of the interests can be undermined and their maneuvers defeated is by bringing home to the public the danger of its indifference, the absurdity of its prejudices, or the hollowness of its fears; by showing that it is indifferent to danger where real danger exists; frightened by dangers which are nonexistent." - Sir Norman Angell 1872 - 1967 "THESE stupid peasants, who, throughout the world, hold potentates on their thrones, make statesmen illustrious, provide generals with lasting victories, all with ignorance, indifference, or half-witted hatred, moving the world with the strength of their arms, and getting their heads knocked together, in the name of God, the king, or the stock exchange-immortal, dreaming, hopeless asses, who surrender their reason to the care of a shining puppet, and persuade some toy to carry their lives in his purse." - Stephen Crane - American novelist and poet, 1870-1900 August 10/11, 2012 Click Here For Op-Ed Articles Click Here For Hard News Items Click Here For Cost Of War ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Follow us on Twitter [http://twitter.com/#tomfeeley] Support Information Clearing House [http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001hdHVZGWLVvB8-JlYHHh-Gf-OevhRID9fFh6jpJxVhh3yg_08lsZhS31g88ZLMfHgUtPanyKKukEu1VhXyOAFTRvy0U_kfFmun7GS38KUeKBUIbliN3A1iqsSEJ4HR9j9_76HGyBKKpBIPP_Sxomqk57nrJpnQ5BF] Visit our blog [http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ US Murders Another 10 People In Yemen By Joe Wolverton II "We see little evidence that these actions are generating widespread anti-American sentiment or recruits for AQAP", White House's top counterterrorism advisor. http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article32134.htm [http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001hdHVZGWLVvB-8W8DcvctXBe1VglwGc7JoA9XiUuPgC9YuWLKxIvOh8aOzMglKZ58iPGLDvWpGX4FOBJ2nv0xJAfYwH1d1rUhpwf0Ok0PeXZyjA46vN3xSebqKXp0hpVgYnn-jdNbpjduM7AEga4kY9yor_GwSWAK] Is Murder By Drone Moral?
