Move Over, 'Mis-leaders'
RECEIVED Fri., Feb. 11, 2011
Dear Editor,
Oligarchies everywhere are shuddering with fear as they watch world events unfold. Rightly, they worry that they may be next. They and their self-proclaimed "greatest generation" have failed miserably. Their methods are infested with dishonesty, insatiable greed, conceit, war crimes, and fixed elections. They have shown contempt for the people, the environment, the truth, and every law that inconveniences them.
When John F. Kennedy moved to end the Vietnam War, they had him killed. They didn't like Al Gore so they had the Supreme Court appoint George Bush. When blatant war crimes were leaked (www.collateralmurder.com), they imprisoned the suspected leaker (Bradley Manning) and shut down most methods for people to finance those who published the material.
It's time for mis-leaders everywhere to get out of the people's way. It's time for the people to seize the power and for peace, truth, and justice loving people to lead.
By encouraging, supporting, and rewarding whistle-blowers, and by recognizing that they are essential for progress, we can obtain and spread important truths. Those truths will set us free from propaganda that keeps us from seeing clearly. The truth will enable us to shut down the military industrial complex and to tax wealthy tax cheats (who have hidden an estimated $20 trillion). Then we can build a sustainable global economy that works for everyone (except insanely greedy fools), and to build a new world characterized by peace, justice, tolerance, and respect for all life.
To quote Julian Assange: “[M]ass leaking leaves … [unjust systems] exquisitely vulnerable to those who seek to replace them with more open forms of governance. … [I]f we are to produce a more civilized society, a more just society, it has to be based upon the truth. Because judgments which are not based upon the truth … lead to outcomes which are themselves false."
