Us Hegemony

US Must face the Truth : Know who is the Terrorist

25 Classic Quotes on Western Hegemony

1- "It's really not a number I'm terribly interested in." -General

Colin

Powell [When asked about the number of Iraqi people who were

slaughtered

by Americans in the 1991 "Desert Storm" terror campaign (200,000

people!)]

2- "I will never apologize for the United States of America - I don't

care

what the facts are." -President George Bush 1988 [Bush was

demonstrating

his patriotism by excusing an act of cold-blooded mass-murder by the

U.S.

Navy. On July 3, 1988 the U.S. Navy warship Vincennes shot down an

Iranian

commercial airliner. All 290 civilian people in the aircraft were

killed.

The plane was on a routine flight in a commercial corridor in Iranian

airspace. The targeting of it by the U.S. Navy was blatantly illegal.

That

it was grossly immoral is also obvious. Except to a patriot.]

3- "To maintain this position of disparity (U.S. economic-military

supremacy)... we will have to dispense with all sentimentality and

day-dreaming.... We should cease to talk about vague and... unreal

objectives such as human rights, the raising of the living standard and

democratization. The day is not far off when we are going to have to

deal

in straight power concepts.... The less we are then hampered by

idealistic

slogans, the better." -George Kennan [Director of Policy Planning U.S.

State Department 1948]

4- "If they turn on the radars we're going to blow up their goddamn

SAMs

(surface-to-air missiles). They know we own their country. We own their

airspace... We dictate the way they live and talk. And that's what's

great

about America right now. It's a good thing, especially when there's a

lot

of oil out there we need." -U.S. Brig. General William Looney

(Interview

Washington Post, August 30, 1999) [Referring, in reality, to the brutal

mass-murder of hundreds of civilian Iraqi men, women and children

during

10,000 sorties by American/British war criminals in the first eight

months

of 1999]

5- "The greatest crime since World War II has been U.S. foreign

policy."

-Ramsey Clark [Former U.S. Attorney General under President Lyndon

Johnson]

6- "I believe that if we had and would keep our dirty, bloody, dollar

soaked fingers out of the business of these [Third World] nations so

full

of depressed, exploited people, they will arrive at a solution of their

own. And if unfortunately their revolution must be of the violent type

because the "haves" refuse to share with the "have-nots" by any

peaceful

method, at least what they get will be their own, and not the American

style, which they don't want and above all don't want crammed down

their

throats by Americans." -General David Sharp [Former United States

Marine

Commandant 1966]

7- "We have no honorable intentions in Vietnam. Our minimal expectation

is

to occupy it as an American colony and maintain social stability for

our

investments. This tells why American helicopters are being used against

guerrillas in Colombia and Peru. Increasingly the role our nation has

taken is the role of those who refuse to give up the privileges and

pleasures that come from the immense profits of overseas investment."

-Martin Luther King, Jr. ["A Time to Break the Silence" speech given at

Riverside Church New York City April 4, 1967]

8- "Death squads have been created and used by the CIA around the world

-

particularly the Third World - since the late 1940s, a fact ignored by

the

elite-owned media." -Ralph McGehee [Former CIA analyst & Author]

governments
