You can see them preening and posturing on the world stage,
impeccably dressed. Feted and acclaimed by some of their partners in crimes,’ and
lauded as “statesmen” and “eminent persons.” They give speeches at thousands of
dollars a speech to some of those who have profited from their decisions. Some
of them even write books on their roles in corrupting the world, only they
don’t use the word corrupting. They use words like “bringing democracy” and
“responsibility to protect.” I believe it is the people everywhere who need
protection from these international gangsters who start wars based on lies and
cause death and destruction world wide. These are the “respectable” war
criminals to big to jail, too big too prosecute and too powerful to arrest
because they run and control the system called “democracy.”
Now “democracy” has become a dirty and obscene word used to
camouflage the carnage created by these vultures of villainy. They supply
dictators and despots around the world with missiles, weapons, bombs and tear
gas to use against their own people. Then, they -- when it suits them-- will help unseat a
dictator and help put another one in his place. Or instead, cause a civil war. They
have been known to finance both sides in wars which could be called the “ethics
of gangsterism.” Some have even been known to get a prize for peace which
surely is an indictment of how rotten, corrupt and depraved the system has
become.
They kill children using drones, sometimes they apologize
for their “mistakes” other times they don’t. They call killing children
“collateral damage” after all, that sounds better than burning them alive or
decapitating them with a hellfire missile. They destroy homes, cities, and
infrastructure then get contracts to rebuild the devastation they created. They
send young men and women to die and fight under the banner of “war on terror.”
Some of these soldiers are terribly maimed. Families lose their loved ones and
bloodstained profits are made by the gangsters in expensive suits who never
fight. Instead they are the deceitful planners of all the mayhem and misery.
For them war is a profitable “business.” The only ones who do not profit are
the soldiers, the families and the victims.
Which raises the question: Should these international
gangsters be allowed to make their bloodstained profits off the dead, dying and
decapitated? Surely, if we truly had a functioning justice system these
international gangsters would be put on trial? Alas, that cannot be done unless
there is a change of attitude by the ordinary people who are in the majority
everywhere. Perhaps the time will come when ordinary people will refuse to take
orders from these gangsters and put them all in a jail cell where they belong.
Meantime, this international community of gangsters’ are running amok.
