40 years ago on 9/11 the bloody coup of general Pinochet (with the help of the White House, Corporate America and the Neocons) against the constitutional president of Chile, Salvador Allende, inaugurated the worst period of Imperialistic rule in South America. As an Argentinian who lived that nightmare I want to shout out to my brethren from over the Andes: Viva Chile, mierda!!

Here we see new imperialism without a soul working on the premise ‘whatever I fear is bad for the free world’ In order to establish the fear-doctrine how many good men and lives were sacrificed.

You’re right, but the worst part is: they’re afraid of nothing. It’s just a pre-programmed obsolescence calculus: “we need to try new weapons and discard old ones every, say, 8-10 years.”. And keep their own people awake and at nervous-breaking point. At least it seems it’ll not works with Syria this time.

I agree with you. International morality is what the devil left out as unworkable before the creation. Imagine the Agent Orange-peddlers feeling horrified at what happened in someone else’s backyard. What moral indignation!
