I finally watched the movie "Lord of War" this evening. And at the end of the movie I cried. This does not happen often. But tonight I openly wept for the victims of my countries "foreign policy". I shed tears for the many hundreds of thousands of good, and innocent people who have died needlessly because of my nation. I have long suffered with the knowledge that my nation uses criminals, terrorists and mass murderers to further its commercial and political interests. I have known of this for a long time. But it was the ending of this movie that finally triggered me to openly weep over these atrocious crimes against humanity. The US gov has been hiring mercenaries that slaughter innocents for a long time. Back in the early 1900s the US sponsered South American terrorist/mercenary/murderers to protect the economic interests of private American companies (such as the Dole and Chiquita Banana companies). This crap could have started earlier for all I know. But I do know that my countries government employed mercenaries that slaughtered entire villages of Good people so that a few US companies could make their money. Thats just South America and Bananas. What about the Middle East and Oil? This started to become a factor after the Second World War. Today we are paying for 50 years of with the peoples of other nations. We the people of America are paying the consequences of the actions that have resulted in the profit of a few. If the tens of hundreds of thousands of dead people don't move you.. then perhaps your pocketbook will soon motivate you. Maybee then you(the masses) will finally take notice so that We The People may once again gain control of our government and stop this vicious cycle of death for profit from repeating....
Many Amercians seem to have at least some small knowledge of what our US Gov did in South America during the 1980s. And if the deaths of innocent foreigners does not move you, then you should know that American corporations and the US gov is directly responsible for the untimely deaths of tens, and perhaps hundrends of thousands of your fellow Amercians. This has got to stop. People are suffering and dying so that a few can make obscene profit. How the hell can you people continue to buy your products from Dole Banana or Maxel House Coffee? These corps literally destroy the lives, and end the lives of good hardworking people. And these corps do this for the sake of money! If you purchase their products; then you are an accomplice to these heinous crimes. Know who you support when you spend your dollars. Don't give your money to the rapers and pillagers such as Maxwell House or Dole Banana. Let your wallet cast your vote. Stop buying from the Walmarts and McDonalds, and the Maxwell Houses and the Hersheys of the world. Buy from, and support the people! Let the corporate pigs die on the vine for lack of sustenance!
