My Internal Exile, by Edward Curtin

The USA is run by ruthless killers who revel in war. From Edward Curtin at lewrockwell.com:

“Let me have war, say I; it exceeds peace as far as day does night: it’s spritely waking, audible, and full of vent. Peace is a very apoplexy, lethargy; mull’d, deaf, sleepy, insensible; a getter of more bastard children than war’s a destroyer of men.” – Shakespeare, Coriolanus

  1. Benz (H/T) just had one proving that the State Department (commie since 1930s) is running 404 Ukraine.

    Inflation for the peasants? Paying the salary or pension of every Ukraine government member ain’t cheap.

    The thing with WAR is that is always comes home to Das Homeland.

    A soft docile insouciant population just isn’t ready for that.

    Some are and these are the ones you want to get with.
