I don’t criticize Iran because I do not want to feed into an imperial war propaganda campaign for a horrific agenda that I do not support. I want to focus my criticisms on the power structure under which I actually live, because that is what one does when one is not a groveling bootlicker, and because the power structure under which I live happens to be the most abusive tyrant on the world stage.

      Yep. I never knew much about him until now. He writes a lot about consciousness but the stereotype is that he writes about aliens and UFOs and weird conspiracy stuff. His book The Trigger is about 2 bibles thick and it covers a lot. Starting with the backgrounds of Cheney and Rumsfeld. Much of the book reads like investigative journalism. He sought information and points out contradictions in official statements.

      At my local library we have 3 copies for the city and all 3 copies of Icke’s book are currently in use. Somebody just put a hold on a copy so I’m going to return my copy. Pretty popular book, surprisingly.

        I mean MH issues don’t mean intelligence issues. I should see if it’s available.
