"If I were the president, I could stop terrorist attacks against the United States in a few days. Permanently. I would first apologize to all the widows and orphans, the tortured and impoverished, and all the many millions of other victims of American imperialism. Then I would announce, in all sincerity, to every corner of the world, that America's global interventions have come to an end, and inform Israel that it is no longer the 51st state of the USA but now -- oddly enough -- a foreign country. I would then reduce the military budget by at least 90% and use the savings to pay reparations to the victims. There would be more than enough money. One year's military budget of 330 billion dollars is equal to more than $18,000 an hour for every hour since Jesus Christ was born. That's what I'd do on my first three days in the White House. On the fourth day, I'd be assassinated."

I'm sorry but when I saw this text on the Propaghandi site I said to myself: ''Oh your god! damn good writer... down to earth too, not high on his patriotism horse.''

Anyone ever read one of his books? See I got quite alot to do lately and I'm looking for a good book and I'm thinking about getting one of his books... but dunno if its worth the 50 or so dollars...

Discuss! (bout the text and the author...)

That is very true, and that is all I have to say.

He wouldn't be shot if he wasn't a Freemason. :P

The only two non-Freemason presidents have been Lincoln and John F. Kennedy, and we all know what happened to them.

CONSPIRACY! (fnord)
