|
The world as we know has changed for the worse.
I was just thinking...
Did the world change for the worse on September 11, 2001 or March 19, 2003 (the invasion of Iraq)?

5. I agree. 9/11 and the Iraq invasion would not have happened |

8. Actually Nov. 2, 1979...dawning of the Regan era. |
|
That's where it all began. And when they began their manipulation of news events (i.e., release of Hostages).

7. That was certainly a big one.. |
|
How about December 19, 1998? The day Clinton was impeached. That was just sickening. Along with the "Contract for America" bullshit, it seemed like the start of the long journey over the cliff for this country.

9/11 was not the world's first or even biggest terrorist attack. Iraq was not the first war fought without reason and the original case built on lies.
The world is exactly the same as it's always been - powerful nations/empires fuck up the weak ones and the "middle" nations dance around the powerful like a bunch of sycophants.
Things may have changed for AMericans (although I doubt even that) but for the rest of the world it's business as usual
