		<description>Hey Big Raven,
The individual lies (propaganda) dont matter anymore - its ALL a tissue of lies in support of maintaining a system of lies. I fully agree with your point regarding "propaganist complaining about propaganda is moot" .....'laughable' is the word that comes to mind! In a world of communications snowed under with propaganda what else should we expect?
 
Your opening question is really the one we should all be examining closely - 'How did we get to this place and time?'

I have a theory: Crappy decision-making!! About 6.5 thousand years ago female totems of worship started to be replaced by male totems and over a period of about 500 years all the female totems were discarded - this appears to have happened world wide at around the same time. Since that time the worlds populations have been subjected to entirely biased and un-representative decision-making systems, e.g. monarchies, military junta's, governments and law-makers who were and are still, predominantly male. 
To me, this is THE underlying and root cause of todays issues. The decision-making apparatus is simply too narrow and is run by too few men who like power. Men build hierarchical structures of governance in order to maintain their power. Whether those structures are monarchies, governments or businesses matters not. Its the decision-making that matters and these structures simply do not and cannot represent anything other than the interests of their makers/maintainers.
So, when we ask 'how we got here' the answer is pretty bloody obvious - we got here through the predominance of male decision-making. We are kept 'here' by the same and the future looks pretty grim unless we change drastically.</description>

		<description>Do you ever wonder how in the hell did we get to this place in time and space? Killing for the sake of killing or better put lying until the lies become truths.
Now dont be fooled with ole Joe galloway hes a warmonger from the "old school" another pretend green breret carring his weapon around that other fake war so he could off a few of those commie bastards.
A propaganist complaining about propaganda is moot! 
Until this country can face up to the real truths we are DOOMED to all out war for ever. So please save all your jonny come latly wishes about the horrows of war when these types of articles should have and could have been written at the begining of this immoral war. 
It was the media and the goverment and the warmongering money makers who con-spired to make war , the hipocrazy of the american people is stinking and as the users know very predicable so much so that it is easy to start wars based on phoney patriots and false flag missions. Whos to blame?
Its not just the imblciles neo-conmen its you and me with all the phoney patriotical bullcrap we can muster and thats one truth we have a hard time swallowing.
This society is based on greed and as long as we follow this way of being we are DOOMED. There are only two questions that really need to be answered
1)Who read and reads all that propaganda and why?
2)HEY JOE!Where ya going with that gun in your hand?
Manifested Destiny yeah right!</description>
