A GOVERNMENT THAT LIES

 

The most expensive purchase most Americans will ever make is their own

government. Government costs the average American more than their

home, more than their health care, more than their childrens' college

education. Yet people who would spend a great deal of time kicking the

tires before buying a new car spend disastrously little time checking

out the government that sucks so much money out of them over their

lifetimes.

 

Right now, looking under the hood of that expensive item called

" government " , we see a unified group of men and women who lied to send

your children off to a war of conquest. Across this land there are

thousands of families waking up to the knowledge that their sons and

daughters were crippled and killed in Iraq for reasons other than what

they were told.

 

First off, let's dispense with this crap about " Intelligence

failures " . An Intelligence Failure is when something is happening that

you don't know about. You miss the evidence. Or you misinterpret the

evidence you have.

 

But with regards to the claims about Iraq's weapons of mass

destruction, there was no evidence to miss or misinterpret. There

could not be, since in hindsight there were no weapons to leave traces

of evidence with. The story about weapons of mass destruction was just

made up, and fraudulently manufactured " proof " created to support that

lie. The mere existence of Tony Blair's dossier, plagiarized from a

student thesis, is proof not only that the claims of Iraq WMDs were

lies, but were known and conscious lies. Had their been any real

proof, it would have been shared immediately between the various

war-mongers. There would have been no need for Tony Blair to concoct

his discredited Dossier. But, what the public were offered were

mislabeled and blurry photos, made up dossiers, and balloon inflators

misidentified as mobile biological weapons laboratories (which the

British government knew about since they had sold the balloon

inflators to Iraq in the first place).

 

So, there was no " intelligence failure " . There was no intelligence

with which to fail. The whole crock about Iraqi WMDs was a made-up

fiction.

 

The government lied.

 

While only a few people created the lie, mostly connected with the

Pentagon's Office of Special Projects and presumably via the Israeli

spies since discovered within, coordinated with the similar propaganda

group working out of Ariel Sharon's office, the fact is that the

entire United States Government and the mainstream media news

departments all signed onto that lie with a will. Now, news pundits

and some members of Congress have since taken the position they

ohgollygeewhiz but they were taken in by the lies as well. But this is

just another face-saving deception. There is such a thing as due

diligence and checking facts; behaviors expected of both journalists

and congresscritters. Months before the invasion of Iraq, internet web

sites like this one, using easily available facts, had discredited the

claims of Iraq's WMDs, exposed Tony Blair's plagiarized dossier, and

correctly identified those trailers as the balloon inflators they

were. It must be assumed that Congressional offices and media

corporations with large staffs and huge budgets would have had an easy

time finding the same facts that web sites operating on spare change

were able to find. Therefore, going along with the lies about Iraq's

weapons of mass destruction had to be an intentional act of will.

 

The government lied.

 

What does it mean to live under a government that lies to you?

 

Is the war just, moral, and necessary? You cannot know for certain

under a government that lies to you.

 

Are taxes legal and fair? You cannot know for certain under a

government that lies to you.

 

Is the public money being spent wholly on the public? You cannot know

for certain under a government that lies to you.

 

Are you really free? You cannot know for certain under a government

that lies to you.

 

Is life in this nation really better than anywhere else? You cannot

know for certain under a government that lies to you.

 

When you live under a government that lies, you cannot know anything

for certain about your lives. All you can know is what you are told.

And, because of the lies about the Iraq WMDs, what we know we are told

is what the government tells us to trick us into agreeing with

whatever their own purpose happens to be. And if, whether you know it

or not, are are doing what the government wants, even to the deaths of

your own children, then you are a slave.

 

Americans are the most lied-to people on Earth. The global perception

of the " Ugly American " isn't that we are ugly, but that we are so

clueless about what is going on in the world, in particular the evils

committed by the United States Government using our taxes and children

behind our backs. Our government craps on other peoples' nations,

while we are told that those people love us, sit up nights to admire

us, and lead good moral lives so that when they die, their souls will

go to America. And when we visit those countries where the US

Government plays their covert games, our delusions run headlong into

their reality, and feelings (and if we are lucky, little else) get hurt.

 

Baby sitters will often give their children a choice of whether to go

to bed at 7:30 or at 8:00. The child will choose 8:00 and go to bed

happy thinking that he or she had a choice. But the agenda of the baby

sitter was to have the child in bed by 8:00 before the arrival of

another guest at 8:30. The child has been tricked into doing what the

baby sitter wanted, while thinking the choice was theirs. That is how

mind control, or brainwashing works; by giving the target ONLY those

facts which will lead them to conclude, seemingly of their own free

will, that their only course of action was what the government wanted

in the first place.

 

That is what happened in Iraq. The public were all told by the

government and media that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction that

could be deployed in just 45 minutes. And, based on that claim and the

absence of any facts to the contrary (except here on the internet)

many Americans decided that the war was necessary and felt that had

come to that decision of their own free will. In hindsight, of course,

that decision was not of their own free will but was the desired

outcome of the manufactured lies about Iraq. Those that doubted the

lies at the start were dismissed with the assurance that the

mainstream media, serving as a watchdog on government abuse, would

expose lies if they existed. Again in hindsight, the media was working

hand in glove to sell those very lies to the people whose taxes and

children were spent on the sands of Iraq.

 

The Declaration of Independence declares the principle that government

derive their just powers from the consent of the governed. I DO NOT

GIVE MY CONSENT TO BE LIED TO, I don't know anyone who gives their

consent to be lied to. Moreover, one cannot give consent to be lied to

because one cannot know what one is consenting to. No court would

enforce a contract where one party does not know the terms of the

contract being agreed to.

 

The Constitution does not authorize the government to lie to We The

People. The tenth amendment bars the government from presuming that

right. When the government lies, it therefore acts unconstitutionally

and illegally. A government that lies to the people breaks faith with

the people, violates the contract between the government and the

people under which the people consent to be governed. A government

that lies to the people delegitimizes itself. A government that lies

to the people ceases to be the lawful government of this land. Surely

the lies used to initiate a war of conquest into another nation are

the worst possible lies a government can commit against its own

people. And with such a lie, the United States ceases to be a nation,

and becomes a land under occupation by force.
