Man, if I'd had time to think for a damn minute, the news that the U.S. Imperial Forces are setting up a new "African Command" may have caused me to say something like this: "Just kill me." Man. I feel ya. More Arthur: "Peace and security." "Development, health, education, democracy and economic growth." Visions of Paradise ecstatically dance in my head. Oh, just a moment here.

Whenever the voters grow weary of the plutocracy, they’re offered the alleged...
It’s a heck of a note…
to have to root for the Rockefellers. Blog entry by Lew Rockwell: "The Eastern Establishment Is Pro-Peace Well, not quite, but the Rockefeller-neocon split continues. I hate to agree with the Trilateral Commission types, but the more conservative warmongers and imperialists are right to see the neocons as insane. The Rockfellers opposed the 2nd Iraq war, or at least the regime-change part, and now oppose the planned war on Iran as possibly leading to an economic calamity (the dead don't much...

Second, it must actually be the defendant’s intention to avoid the greater harm’¦. Third,...
