Let's Follow the Logic

"The virtual condition continues to hold us hostage for its own uses, forced to watch an ersatz world decomposing in a market of terror." - from Society of the Spectacle (A Digital Remix) performed by DJRABBI.

Let's follow the logic:

Phony propaganda riles up a nation in need of killing something deep inside the national psyche as a way to avenge 9/11.

Bad intelligence fuels the phony propaganda so that it turns into a wildfire of lies out of control.

In the blink of an eye, going against the will of the rest of the world and insisting on a new doctrine that essentailly turns America the Beautiful into Amerika the Empire, the United States of America launches a pre-emptive strike against Iraq.

On May 1st, the President declares moral and military victory on the U.S.S. Lincoln even though he himself was the worst kind of draft dodger, that is, one that pretended to be enlisted in the National Guard even though that was a cover for his other, more party oriented, cavorting ways.

The post-War aftermath is full of chaos, rebellion, disdain, and danger. Even the U.N. and Red Cross are in the cross hairs of those resisting the American occuptaion.

The President says he sees this all as a GOOD SIGN that his policies are spot on and that the resistance fighters are desperate.

But who is really desperate, as polls show both Democrats and Independents questioning the war policy in the first place?

How desperate does one have to be to so blatantly lie to the American people about a quagmire that we should have never found ourselves in?

How desperate is the corporate-driven oilgarchy running Washington D.C.? Desperate enough to break Federal law by leaking the names and status of undercover C.I.A. officers?

Is the level of desperation so intense inside the Bush White House that they knowingly and willingly commit this kind of "treason"? [the word "treason" in relation to leaking the names of CIA operatives is borrowed from George Bush, the President's father]

How much desperation can one feel before blowing the hatch?
