Lying For Empire


Lying For Empire: "I am a college professor who was inspired to write this book after viewing documentaries with my students about American interventions which resulted in crimes against humanity. The images of people losing their families and homes drove my decision to expose the lies and atrocities perpetrated by American presidents.At the same time, I believe that the time is right for this type of book. The Bush administration's disingenuous justifications for the most recent war against Iraq in 2003 have piqued people's interest in the subject. My book will grab people's attention as it exposes the lies which eight presidents told to the American people and Congress since World War II and, more importantly, exposes the war crimes they have committed.The book describes the pattern of presidential behaviour and strategies common to all these atrocities. Knowledge of this pattern will enable people to recognize plans for future U.S. interventions and will create a balance in people's understanding of world events. It will also provide people with important truths about American presidents.Each chapter begins with a narrative describing the history leading up to the war crime and is followed by a comprehensive analysis of the important events, contents of declassified documents, and presidential speeches and diary entries. The analysis leads to the conclusion that each president lied and committed war crimes. Each chapter destroys commonly held myths and introduces new information about the events and people under discussion. For example, the book examines the popular perception that Serbia committed genocide against the people of Sarajevo and brings to light the fact that the allegations are based on selective and false information."

Wow, I'll have to look for this one. This is important history... I especially keep pounding people with this item from chapter 7: "Saddam Hussein met with the American Ambassador to Iraq to seek out the American position on an Invasion of Kuwait. Ambassador April Glaspie responded to Hussein's enquiry with we have no opinion on your Arab-Arab conflicts."

Yea how about the chapter that says there were really no Nazi's or war concentration camps and no Jews were ever killed? This commie liberal "professor" is teaching our children his filthy hippy doctrines trying to destroy our country!

Hey Carp! glad to see you're still alive. One thing good about being as pickled as your are all the time is they won't have to use embalming fluid when you do pass. You're just like all those blue hairs I grew up around out Sun City way.

"...Live Slow, Die Old, Leave a Well Preserved Corpse!"

To late for the liberal commies to destroy the country, the military industrial complex has already done it!

p.s. how's the novel going?

Hi Mike O!

I need to get by your blog more often. Enjoy our discussions over at Shea's blog. Have lived all over the world, but the one place I have always wanted to visit is Alaska.

Okay, in this corner, the local champion, weighing in at 100 watts with a slight overdrive, Mike of the North! And in this corner, the challenger, world-reknowned contender Jack "Merciless" Mercer!

Okay, no rabbit punches, no hitting below the belt, when the bell rings go to neutral corners.

Hey, what's that in your glove!?

There ain't nothin' in my glove but the spiked brass knuckles of truth and reality!

Mike of Remorse
the novel is done! So how are your chicken bears doing. When can we come on up for a fight? Or are you still too mamby pamby to accommodate us? I think the only thing in your glove is the spiked brass knuckles of fear and fantasy!
