US military try to ban pictures of dead in AfghanistanUS military commanders are worried about the affects of showing pictures of dead soldiers and they want them banned in order to control the message coming from war zone, claims Michael Macleod-Ball from ACLU. |
Clinton is the same old US hawk meal, seved up with different sauce. The hawks went for overt military power, she is using soft power, but the goal is the same US colonialism. So Russia just needs carry on doing exactly what it is doing now and develop with China and India an alliance to ensure world security; just keep walking, there is no course change needed, it is a process to create a multipolar world. The US will not change without pressure from the outside, the new pole will be a positive force to allow the US to be an equitable partner in the world, rather than the colonial dicatator it is today. It will help Obama, if he is genuine with his quest. Because our quest is a world of countries living in security and trading equtably.
The "cold war" could just as easily have been called "THE PROPAGANDA WAR". The Soviet Union opted out because of severe financial difficulties and a lack of will by their leader to hold the Soviet Union together. Good, bad or indifferent, this left the world unstable with a great imbalance of power. Will grandstanding by the Russian Federation and the U. S. A. on nuclear nonproliferation and treaties bring back a sense of a balance of power in the world? Sometimes, after humpty dumpty falls off the wall it is impossible to put him back together again. Regardless, I don't think the people of either country will fall for another cold war propaganda stunt. Internet communition will prevent this kind of brainwashing, unless internet is taken from the people.
