Fahrenheit 9/11

I've always been amazed that the very people forced to live in the worst parts of town, go to the worst schools, and who have it the hardest are always the first to step up, to defend us.

They serve so that we don't have to. They offer to give up their lives so that we can be free. It is remarkably their gift to us.

And all they ask for in return is that we never send them into harm's way unless it is absolutely necessary. Will they ever trust us again?


It's not a matter of whether the war is not real, or if it is, Victory is not possible. The war is not meant to be won, it is meant to be continuous. Hierarchical society is only possible on the basis of poverty and ignorance. This new version is the past and no different past can ever have existed. In principle the war effort is always planned to keep society on the brink of starvation. The war is waged by the ruling group against its own subjects and its object is not the victory over either Eurasia or East Asia but to keep the very structure of society intact.---George Orwell
