Murder, Inc. The Reality of American Foreign Policy

Murder, Inc.
That's the reality of American foreign policy

... There will be no easy end to this war because it is merely a symptom of our own inner rot. We've come a long way from the American of Jefferson's time to the neo-barbarians of the Late Imperial era – and it's been downhill all the way. This isn't a political problem – it's a cultural affliction. The world's most powerful nation is infected with the psychopathology of a serial murderer – one who kills not out of grim necessity, but for the sheer joy of it.

We live in a society sickened by its own poisons. Conservatives have known this for some time. Liberals are learning it. The culture of permissiveness, of moral relativism and heedless hedonism, is yielding some decidedly unexpected consequences in the foreign policy realm. After all, we're the most powerful nation on earth – why shouldn't we push others around? Even as we play the role of international do-gooders, the obvious enjoyment our centurions take in humiliating "Ali Baba" – their name for any Iraqi – illustrates what is really driving this war, and all the wars to come: what the conservative philosopher Claes Ryn calls "the will to dominate."

America is, today, the fountainhead of evil in the world. No one is killing people faster, and with more cruelty and indifference, than the warlords of Washington. The temptation is to turn away in disgust and resign oneself to the degeneration of Jefferson's benevolent legacy into a maelstrom of malevolence worthy of Caligula. ...

Yankee Judaea is some sort of Satanic cult...
