u2Kitty: Continued..
So, we might ask ourselves: What happens when a “rogue” country threatens to bring the banking system that benefits the corporatocracy to its knees? What happens to an “empire” when it can no longer effectively be overtly imperialistic?
One definition of “Empire” (per my book The Secret History of the American Empire) states that an empire is a nation that dominates other nations by imposing its own currency on the lands under its control. The empire maintains a large standing military that is ready to protect the currency and the entire economic system that depends on it through extreme violence, if necessary. The ancient Romans did this. So did the Spanish and the British during their days of empire-building. Now, the US or, more to the point, the corporatocracy, is doing it and is determined to punish any individual who tries to stop them. Qaddafi is but the latest example.
Understanding the war against Quaddafi as a war in defense of empire is another step in the direction of helping us ask ourselves whether we want to continue along this path of empire-building. Or do we instead want to honor the democratic principles we are taught to believe are the foundations of our country?
History teaches that empires do not endure; they collapse or are overthrown. Wars ensue and another empire fills the vacuum. The past sends a compelling message. We must change. We cannot afford to watch history repeat itself.
Let us not allow this empire to collapse and be replaced by another. Instead, let us all vow to create a new consciousness. Let the grass-roots movements in the Middle East – fostered by the young who must live with the future and are fueled through social networks – inspire us to demand that our country, our financial institutions and the corporations that depend on us to buy their goods and services commit themselves to fashioning a world that is sustainable, just, peaceful, and prosperous for all.
We stand at the threshold. It is time for you and me to step across that threshold, to move out of the dark void of brutal exploitation and greed into the light of compassion and cooperation.

The Washington consensus, globalism's strategy of enslaving the world through debt entrapment.
an extremely informative book (here condensed into a series of videos) about globalist economic colonialism, the book was written by a former "economic hitman" whose job was to go and put pressure on entrapped debtor nations to force them to destroy and liquidify their own economies and give all wealth to the creditor banks.
If the economic hitmen fail, then comes the CIA organized coup, and if that fails, then comes the invasion.

Yes, and don't forget about Coca-Cola; they usually come in right after the "people's coup" aka the CIA people's coup...but sometimes Coke comes in before...why always Coke, why not give Pepsi a chance or are their ties to the 'military-industrial complex' just not as deep...Pepsi should sue for lack of 'equal opportunity'!

Coca-Cola is the old guard.
It has deep ties to the existing political structure.
Pepsi is the big "change" that Obama promised.
Nobody buys it.

RayfromUSA:
The Council for National Policy (CNP) was to America what the Thule Society was to Germany. A cultlke political entity that mixes politics and religion and sways people to embrace the idea of a fascist dictatorship.
Like the Thule Society the CNP began as a sort of New Age Cult, but then quickly branched out in all directions and and morphed into an ultra-rightwing political organization.
Read about how it came into being and what it has become.

You're giving them too much credit for supposed "good intentions".
Obama is a typical caviar-leftist (as they say here in France).
He's no Robinhood. He's a robber from the hood.

If I could give you a compliment?
Have you seen dudes thread tonight? Trash and spamming...Ear after ear of false reporting. You Ray, I believe is the most intelligent threader on CS.
You always come back with a very intelligent answer when asked a question.

This is a harsh video; Russia. I disagree with it because many of us know that mankind doesn't cause Global Warming, Mother Nature does.
