USA Today has all these headlines about the continuing Iraq saga. And each headline says something like: ‘Rebels are also active in the north...’ or ‘Rebels are shooting at aircraft’ or ‘At times guerrillas fire from the back of trucks...’ Lets get this straight. We told the whole world we want to attack and invade this country. The whole world voted on it and said almost unanimously “No, don't do it. Those days are over. We stopped the whole invasion thing back in the forties you guys. You will just have to find another way to accomplish your goals.” But we did it anyway. So now the whole world is mad at us and thinks we have been taken over and are being controlled by these not so smart and evil madmen and they watch as we struggle to bring down an entire country and its people as the whole world watches. So now we are in their country as invaders and foreigners and strangers shooting everything up and changing everything around, and they are trying whatever they can with all these tactics everyday to defend their country to get us out of there. But in the American papers they are being called “rebels” or “guerillas?” They're not being called what they are, “the Iraqis” or “the Iraqi people.” 

It is truly fucking hilarious. Twisted and sad. You can live forever and still be completely shocked by the audacious idiocy of some of the people around you. The front page of USA Today, it seriously says “Rebels fire at aircraft... some of the guerillas used assault weapons...” They aren't reporting that the Iraqi people are trying to defend themselves against the foreign invaders by firing at them with whatever they have left from the backs of a few trucks... they are seriously calling these Iraqi people rebels... amazing really. The whole world told us not to invade their country, and we did it anyway. Who are the rebels here? Who are the guerillas? No offense against our American brothers and sisters in arms over there, cause God knows they're just doing their job, but last time I checked, people dressed up in full military garb, carrying guns and going around shooting things, and attempting to take over a sitting government of a country, these people were called guerillas. That's what the word means. It doesn’t refer to the government who is being taken over. And these papers know this. Every thinking person in the world knows this. But have we changed the meaning of this word now? Does this word guerilla now just mean “anyone who is against the United States” regardless of what side they are actually on? Right before our eyes, all of us, each one of us, is being deceived and manipulated; watching total revisionist history being written day by day. History is not being recorded by our TV or newspapers. It is being rewritten and changed to reflect a completely different and false story than what is really happening. [but bear in mind that this only happening in America. not the in the rest of the world...]

O.k. so we were told this growing up if we had intelligent parents. We already knew this. but watching it in action is another story. I feel sick inside. But the deeper question is of course, if they are doing this about the Iraq invasion, what else are they doing this about? What else are they not telling us? What other arenas are being totally changed for someone’s own devices? What other histories are being rewritten to reflect not the truth but some private group’s secret or not so secret agenda? As the people begin to realize their own powerlessness against their government and its wickedness, lies, and deceit, a despondency grows in them. They take refuge in more opiates and alcohol, in fanciful reality television shows, in the mindless and purposelessness world of celebrity, and in more and more increasingly insane stimulants... 

The media who are doing it, shoving the manure down the throats of the masses who they think want it, they just don't know any better. They’re making money. So they aren't thinking.
