The Next 9-11

the next 9/11 just what will it take to woo the american people into the proper amount of bloodlust which will propel them to agree with whatever they are told by the engineers of this empire, when it comes to the inevitable destruction of Iran’s infrastructure, mass murder of its people & the subsequent “rebuilding” of the country so that it will be an obedient slave to the world’s policeman & its little psychotic brother, Israel? when the next 9/11 comes, just where will it be? will it be in your town? have you already decided that “it must be those Muslims who are always destroying things?” have you already decided that the US should be able to do with Iran whatever it wants, because no matter who actually carries out the attack, IT WILL MOST CERTAINLY HAVE TO BE THOSE IRANIANS WHO DID IT? will you be gung-ho & behind the next Iraq-Afghanistanesque pummeling which will ensue? will you be SHOCKED & AWED more than the last time? will you possess the gall to be sincerely outraged when more americans die because of the way OUR military is acting in OUR name? will you think that all those americans that get killed are truly “innocent?” & will you wonder like dubya, “why, oh why, do they hate us?”
