And today 50 years later, in 2018, where are we with lack of real and timely Journalism leading to the government engaging in endless lies to wage false wars which bankrupt the country and kill our national soul? Same position as 1968. Our 30 years of lies and the undeclared 4th world war on terror. It seems ‘the few’ that control global arms and corporate America just laughed off getting caught in the false Vietnam war and pentagon papers and just went back to it a few years later. But this time with their plan. To put plants in media and buy it so they could silence and control it. Today our major news is much like the state controlled Soviet news of the Cold War. The few took notes!

Instead of America gradually moving to the only thing that can work in terms of foreign policy, a global policy of mutual sustainability, that’s the core value statement of my new foreign policy for us, and the world, we are stuck in a dominance and mutually assured destruction policy. Which by definition does not end until we control every country economically with the threat of military intervention as the big stick we carry. This is why we are in some type of war every 10 years that further bankrupts the country and all its citizens. When regimes around the world (or in states) do not do what we want, and we can’t undermine their political system, we make up false accusations like ‘weapons of mass destruction’ which were never found In Iraq and invade. Or at home allege or bring to light real sexual misconduct, etc. How about invading Kuwait? Remember that one? Remember when Congress said NO to Bush 1? They the White House orchestrated televised testimony of atrocities about babies being ripped out of Kuwaiti incubators by the invading Iraqis and slaughtered! The only problem after this effectively swayed public opinion, MANIPULATED it to sway a few congressional votes, so we invaded, we later find out that the young hospital worker gal who testified so passionately was actually the daughter of a Kuwaiti diplomat and never worked in a hospital. Like all political shows we see, they are all a farce. And while I know this because some journalists did their job (thank you!) where is the accountability? 

Why didn’t we (pardon the pun) press the issue in the press that this was another manipulation of the national treasury and treasure (our kids that serve in the armed forces) by an out of control executive branch. Which was enabled only by the 1786 power grab called the Constitution.

While Bush 1 was smarter than his son and stopped short of entering Iraq, just invaded Kuwait, he should have been impeached by the press doing their job for a false war. Why? That invasion destabilized the region by letting Saudi radicals more freedom when they were to that date fighting silent regional power struggle wars. Then when Bush 2 invaded Iraq to start a 50 year war for his defense industry buddies, he took away the immediate threat to Iran (our CIA had overthrown their democratic government in the 50’s and put in the Shah, our guy, as a brutal dictator) who then had more time, resources and motivation to focus on a nuclear arsenal. Why? If you were Iran what would you see looking out the window? America coming closer and closer taking down all your neighbors. Which means what? You’re next! It’s not rocket science. We created a nuclearized Iran by decades of encroachment. While I digress into foreign policy, back to the point of journalists and the death, absence of real journalism. Where were they on all this? Do I have to be the one to connect all the dots and point out the obvious? That we need a new foreign policy? And have for 25 years. How about rather than strangle the world economically and militarily (which is unsustainable), and kill our national soul in the process as we’ve been doing, how about changing our aggressive stance and have a soft embrace with the world. Everything we do in one country affects another 10 times faster in the Internet instant communications world. 

We are becoming rapidly socially intertwined world beyond just economically. Failed Economic and political states are creating mass exodus’s of people across borders to survive. Causing massive human suffering and displacement the world has not seen in 60 years. It’s like the end of World War 2! The only way to stop this which will at a point cave in the social structures of host countries in a few decades, is a new national and global policy of mutual sustainability. Help them make their world a place they want to stay in. I’ll never forget Bush 2 in a Presidential debate with Al Gore lying through his teeth. Telling the world that we should not be nation builders, which is what he went on to do wasting trillion of our dollars. And just so your mind is fully blown, ask, why do we bomb other counties to the ground? So we can rebuild them. Then control them forever economically with World Bank (that’s us) loans to rebuild their country infrastructure with all the profits going to...wait for it, some of the biggest donors to politicians, corporate America. This sick global enslavement policy is found in several books. One is Confessions of an Economic Hitman. So we destroy (military industrial complex makes all the money) civilizations, rebuild them in our image (American corporations make all the money), and hold the economic strings forever (bankers who are really CIA make the money). Now, if everyone in America was making all the money too, if 300 Million citizens were millionaires (like the RTDNOW Plan’s policy makes them all) millionaires with good healthcare and free college and trade schools and 1% home loans living a good quality life pursuing their American dreams, without 100 Million below the poverty level and 10 Million to 30 Million homeless a s shelter insecure, I might not be as hard on this contravention (intertwined misuse) of Government and corporate power that has been in high gear for almost 60 years since the end of World War 2. Which was a primal reaction to having to fight two hot world wars within 25 years. And then enter a cold one! Our leaders of the time now with nuclear weapons were saying “what the hell is next? If we’re not offensive we’ll always be defensive.” And in a world of nuclear missiles that doesn’t work well being late to the battles anymore as we were in both world wars. So I get the nuclear madness. But we need to now move past that irrational “everybody’s coming to get us” military policy mentality that’s become permanent.

To bring this back to the topic of JOURNALISM IS DEAD, do I have to be the one to report all this and connect the dots. Journalists have been scared of their shadows for decades. Today, in the Information Age, if you pay attention and read a lot, all this is just starting to become obvious to the average ordinary citizen like me, Adrian.

So where does real Journalism like The NY Times and Washington Post of the 1970’s when they published the Pentagon Papers to out three presidential administrations for 30 years of lying to the American people and waging false war, where does real journalism exist today?

Where it did then. Unpaid Citizen activists like my song says. The pentagon papers were illegally taken by Daniel Ellsberg because he saw a crime against the American people that needed to see the light of day so we could hold lying politicians to account. Today with the Internet it’s international. And an Australian named Assange put up a site called Wikileaks where Future Daniel Ellsberg’s could publish to the world. More recently, in this citizen activist mold to voice injustices against the many we had Edward Snowden who informed us all that about $3 trillion (that’s my guess) of our national debt went to hacking the world and every government on the internet every minute of every day breaking every law in every country. While that was a revelation that BIG BROTHER, The Orwellian social oppression Future was actually here right now, what have we done about it? Why hasn’t it been dismantled? Deep and troubling questions indeed. And where is the Free Press to pursue the moral and legal nuances of all that? And the emotional and psychological affect of knowing we are all watched and monitored 24/7 everywhere we go? Where are the real F-ing journalists? Nowhere. We just have Wikileaks and citizen activists like me. I’m trying to do what journalist should. Not only say what happens but discuss THE AFFECT it has on you, Your American Dream, and your kids Future. And offer alternatives to passively watch your freedoms and future slip away.

Right before all our eyes we are being turned into a nation of silent ‘survivors’. Afraid to speak out, and yell “Iceberg Dead Ahead!” So we can change course. So afraid to find real facts and truth we all have our heads in the dirt like chickens. And if you live on a farm you know what happens to them: when they can’t lay eggs they get eaten. We’re all Afraid to come to grips with the painful and sad realities of what we have become. Despotic like old England or Rome as a country and desensitized and an afraid, nonparticipating, me first society. This is not the real America or American Dream. These are false realities we can flip a switch and change overnight, from anywhere you are anytime. 

Stop being afraid to be American. It’s easy in the Internet age. Use your voice once again. Stop being silent to the destruction of 300 Million American dreams. Add your name 300 Million As 1 to the 2nd Declaration of Independence from modern runaway government at RTDNOW.COM
