plans to employ a total <strong>of</strong> 16,000 people, doubling its staff, within the<br />
next two years. The only antidote to these policies is unity and I hope that<br />
the residents <strong>of</strong> these countries are able to unite and resist in a much<br />
more effective way than have "antiwar" "liberal" communities inside the<br />
United States. Of course, some individuals stand out and are leading the<br />
resistance now and I can only hope that their voices are heard and<br />
multiplied among the masses, both here and around the world.<br />
I do believe that Henry Kissinger was onto something when he marveled at<br />
the tremendous good will that this President has around the world and I do<br />
believe that Henry Kissinger, among others, sought to use that good will<br />
<strong>for</strong> their own purposes. After all, when you buy a President, like a slave,<br />
he becomes yours. It is clear now, that the people <strong>of</strong> the United States did<br />
not buy this President and so they do not own him. There are clear winners<br />
from the policies currently being pursued, but they are not the people.<br />
“The President's policies are dismantling and dismembering Pakistan<br />
and Afghanistan as we watch.”<br />
Speaking <strong>of</strong> Henry Kissinger, let me just say this about him and his<br />
minions: When I was in the Congress, I received a phone call from Alassane<br />
Ouattara from aboard Henry Kissinger's yacht. I had received many such<br />
calls from people wanting to benefit from my good reputation within the<br />
human rights and peace community in the United States and they wanted<br />
me to sell their particular potion <strong>of</strong> iniquity to people inside the United<br />
States and to the world. Usually, these people were the kind <strong>of</strong> people<br />
accustomed to buying the consciences <strong>of</strong> public persons, so my "no"<br />
resounded rather sharply to them, and I earned yet another set <strong>of</strong><br />
crosshairs on my <strong>for</strong>ehead, I guess.<br />
Alassane Ouattara and his Zionist wife, Dominique, were seeking my<br />
assistance--or maybe my silence--in his ef<strong>for</strong>t to become President <strong>of</strong> Ivory<br />
Coast. I applaud Laurent Gbagbo in his ef<strong>for</strong>ts to stave <strong>of</strong>f imperialism in<br />
Ivory Coast, one <strong>of</strong> the few African countries that has not one iota <strong>of</strong> a<br />
relationship with the U.S. military. However, Democracy Now, FOX, CNN,<br />
AP, Reuters, and all the rest didn't tell you that when they ran their many<br />
stories about Ivory Coast. While the world will celebrate "democracy"<br />
arriving in Ivory Coast once Gbagbo is gone, the exact opposite will<br />
actually be the case. Handing Ivory Coast over to Henry Kissinger and his<br />
ilk is the policy <strong>of</strong> the Obama Administration. I guess, President Obama is<br />
proving his worth: perhaps no one could have done it better.<br />
But it doesn't stop there. Look at what President Obama's policies are in<br />
Haiti! When the devastating earthquake struck there, only the fifth in the<br />
entire history <strong>of</strong> that country, President Obama sent in the drones when<br />
the people needed food, shelter, and medical relief! How is that any<br />
different from George W. Bush and Michael Chert<strong>of</strong>f who sent men with<br />
guns into New Orleans, military and mercenaries, after Hurricane Katrina<br />
when the people really needed food? Now, because <strong>of</strong> President Obama's<br />
policies and his complete prostration be<strong>for</strong>e the Vicars <strong>of</strong> the Imperium-that<br />
is, the Clinton Family--who call the shots on the future <strong>of</strong> the Haitian<br />
people, Haiti can only see more struggle against domination in its future.<br />
Hillary Clinton went to Haiti to snatch self-determination from the Haitian<br />
people in the victory <strong>of</strong> Jude Celestin and to instead select a musician<br />
buffoon who once mooned his audience in a concert <strong>for</strong> Haiti's Presidency,<br />
all with the smack <strong>of</strong> legitimacy granted when one can successfully<br />
threaten the Election Commission with revocation <strong>of</strong> visas to the U.S. and<br />
control the Organization <strong>of</strong> American States and the United Nations that<br />
has troops <strong>of</strong> occupation there.<br />
“Haiti can only see more struggle against domination in its future.”
