200 Years of Standing Up to US War Lies 200多年的常設最高戰爭的謊言 Monday, September 22nd, 2008 星期一, 2008年9月22日 By通過 David Swanson大衛斯萬森 | Murray Polner and Thomas E. Woods, Jr., have edited a new collection of writings called “We Who Dared to Say No to War: American Antiwar Writing from 1812 to Now.” Read it and weep … and cheer. |穆雷Polner和托馬斯E伍茲,小,有一個新的編輯收集的著作稱為“我們敢於說不戰爭:美國反戰寫作從1812年到現在。 ”閱讀和哭泣...和喝彩聲。 Weep because we’ve been lied into wars in very similar ways for two centuries and have had to discover the deception anew each time.哭泣,因為我們一直在撒謊到戰爭的方式非常相似的兩個世紀,並已發現了新的欺騙每次。 Cheer because some people have been there to denounce the lies on the spot every time, and their ranks have steadily grown.振作,因為有些人一直有譴責在於現場每一次,他們的排名一直穩步增長。 In 1812, taking over Canada was going to be a cakewalk.在1812年,接管加拿大將是一個步態競賽。 In 1846 Mexico had supposedly attacked the United States, whereas the opposite was true.在1846年墨西哥理應襲擊美國,而恰恰相反。 Ending slavery was a belated excuse for the Civil War already underway (much like spreading democracy to Iraq), and it is likely that slavery would have ended swiftly had the South been allowed to secede in peace; slaves escaping north would have been escaping to another nation.結束奴隸制是一個遲到的藉口,美國南北戰爭正在進行(很像傳播民主伊拉克) ,並很可能將奴隸制迅速結束了南方被允許在和平分裂出去;奴隸逃跑北部將已逃離到另一個國家。 In 1898 lies about the Spanish that would have made Fox News proud (including lies about the Maine, a ship that was actually blown up from within) helped launch a US war to liberate Cuba, which however occupied Cuba instead of liberating it and occupied the Philippines for good measure, slaughtering people there by the thousands for years. 1898年謊言,西班牙將有福克斯新聞自豪(包括謊言的緬因州,船舶實際上是炸毀從內部)幫助美國發射解放戰爭的古巴,但在被佔領的古巴而不是解放,並佔領了菲律賓的良好措施,屠宰人們成千上萬多年。 In 1916 Woodrow Wilson was reelected president on the slogan “He Kept Us Out of War,” and proceeded to set up an early version of the White House Iraq Group known as the Committee on Public Information whose mission it was to make Americans hate Germans. 1916年伍德羅威爾遜連任總統的口號是: “他使我們擺脫戰爭” ,並著手建立一個早期版本的白宮伊拉克組稱為委員會公共信息,其使命是為了讓美國人仇恨德國人。 The lies (including about the content of the Lusitania) were so effective that they shaped the settlement at the end of the first world war, contributing to the rise of Nazism and the second world war.謊言(包括約的內容魯西塔尼亞)是非常有效,他們形成了解決年底的第一次世界戰爭,促進崛起的納粹主義和第二次世界戰爭。 We entered that second war following an unprovoked attack by the Japanese, unless the threats we had sent the Japanese and the economic sanctions we had imposed on them count as provocation, and ignoring the fact that the US Navy had been given, nine days before Pearl Harbor, orders to shoot down any Japanese planes and blow up Japanese boats it encountered.我們進入第二次戰爭之後,無端的攻擊,日本,除非威脅我們送來了日本的經濟制裁,我們已對他們算作挑釁,無視事實,美國海軍已獲得, 9天前明珠港,命令擊落任何日本飛機炸毀和日本的船隻遇到。 The lies of the Cold War, and the Gulf of Tonkin, and the mythical babies taken out of incubators prior to the first Gulf War are still familiar to most Americans.謊言的冷戰,以及北部灣,以及神秘的嬰兒採取了孵化器之前,第一次海灣戰爭仍在熟悉的大多數美國人。 What is unfamiliar to most Americans is the history of truth telling that has accompanied all these warmongering lies.什麼是陌生的,大多數美國人是歷史的真相告訴了陪同所有這些好戰的謊言。 If you want to be informed and inspired by this rich heritage, pick up a copy of “We Who Dared to Say No to War.” Here we find Daniel Webster and John Randolph opposing the War of 1812, Henry Clay and Abraham Lincoln Denouncing the Mexican War, Stephen Crane and William Jennings Bryan opposing the war on Cuba and the Philippines, Robert M. La Folette and Helen Keller speaking against World War I, and many, many lesser known prophets for peace.如果你想獲得通知,並啟發這一豐富的遺產,拿起一份“我們敢於說不戰爭。 ”我們在這裡找到丹尼爾韋伯斯特和約翰倫道夫反對戰爭的1812年,亨利粘土和亞伯拉罕林肯譴責墨西哥戰爭中,斯蒂芬克萊恩和威廉詹寧斯布賴恩反對戰爭的古巴和菲律賓,羅伯特M香格里拉Folette和海倫凱勒發言反對第一次世界大戰,以及許多鮮為人知的先知和平。 And the endless wars against native Americans are not even included.和無休止的戰爭對土著美國人甚至不包括在內。 Henry Wallace and Robert Taft oppose the Cold War, while Wayne Morse and Philip Berrigan oppose the slaughter in Vietnam, along with many other eloquent voices.亨利華萊士和羅伯特塔夫脫反對冷戰,而韋恩和菲利普莫爾斯Berrigan反對屠殺在越南,與其他許多有力的聲音。 And the chapter on Iraq and the “War on Terror” is richer than any before it.章和對伊拉克和“反恐戰爭”是比任何豐富的面前。 Numerous other lesser wars might have been included as well, but this collection is a thing of beauty.許多其他較小的戰爭可能已經被列為不錯,但此集合是一個美麗的事。 “Where is it written in the Constitution,” asked Daniel Webster, “in what article or section is it contained, that you may take children from their parents, and parents from their children, and compel them to fight the battles of any war, in which the folly or the wickedness of Government may engage it?” “哪裡是它寫入憲法, ”問丹尼爾韋伯斯特, “在什麼文章或一節載,你可能需要的兒童及其家長,和家長他們的孩子,並迫使他們反對戰爭的任何戰爭,在該愚蠢或邪惡的政府可能參與了嗎? “ “[T]aking for true,” said Abraham Lincoln, “all the President states as fact, he falls far short of proving his justification; and … would have gone farther with his proof, if it had not been for the small matter, that the truth would not permit him.” “ [ Ť ] aking真正的說, ”林肯“ ,所有的主席國事實上,他遠遠不能證明其理由;和...我們不會去與他進一步證明,如果沒有小的問題,真相將不允許他。 “ “I have agonized over this vote,” said Congresswoman Barbara Lee on September 15, 2001, when she stood alone against launching an open-ended war on Afghanistan. “我已經痛苦了本次投票說: ”眾議員芭芭拉李於9月15日, 2001年,當她站在反對單獨發起一個不限成員名額的阿富汗戰爭。 “But I came to grips with it in the very painful yet beautiful memorial service today at the National Cathedral. “但是我來對付它在非常痛苦的還漂亮的追悼會今天在國家大教堂。 As a member of the clergy so eloquently said, ‘As we act, let us not become the evil that we deplore.’”身為神職人員如此雄辯地說, '當我們的行為,讓我們不要成為邪惡,我們感到遺憾。 “ While it’s not included in the book, I want to add something sung by Pete Seeger:雖然不包括在這本書,我想補充一點晟前皮特西格: Have Your Say: 200 Years of Standing Up to US War Lies 你說: 200年的常設最高戰爭的謊言 Please read our請仔細閱讀我們的 posting guidelines before posting張貼在發布前的指導方針 . 。 Alternatively或者 you can discuss this report here你可以討論這份報告在這裡 . 。 Related News 相關新聞
