How to Wield the World.
The "elitists" (military-industrial complex) profiteer via fraudulent and oppressive infrastructure and arms contracts here and around the world.

Then, those scumbuckets control leaders/countries/peoples with debt owed on those contracts; and, if that doesn't work, they utilize superior military power based upon allegations of "arms threat" (arms which were sold by the profiteers).

Those bastards have a very simple way of profiteering and power-mongering through purely AMORAL exploitation.

Now, you tell me,...who ARE are the real terrorists?

2. But, but, but,...what about "freedom" and spreading "democracy"?
I know,...I know,...it was NEVER about anything other than greed, money and power-mongering.

People rarely learn from the experiences of their parents. Nations deny history. Tragedy must be learned from scratch, time and time, again. Yet, we cannot avoid change or evolution,...whether we like it or not.

Eventually, we will no longer cling to the past as an inevitable mold of our future because,...to do so will mean our total destruction. Life is still too meaningful to us for that to happen.
