162. Nobody ever brings the Winner to such courts
Witness the fire-bombing of Dresden. No German army there, nothing but civilians.

Witness the nuclear
--sorry, Bush "won": Nookular--
attacks on 2 large and completely civilian (aka non-combatants) Japanese cities!

Women and children and elderly. Oh my!


Nope the winner, hence the holder of the trials, is never brought to stand in the dock at these their own show trials!
As if we could properly and without bias police our own!
Oh wait -- *'s entire environmental legislation & policies have the energy companies policing themselves.... could * possibly be wrong?! /sarcasm

....hmmm, well that's a pickle. & not a 'pretty' one at that ;>

Oh well, we're all-mighty and we're the biggest on this terran block; and now we're a Christian nation on a Crusade, a downright Holy War
-- let's kill them all in the LORD'S NAME! --J Falwell

so obviously we're blameless.
Right?

But I can't help but wonder how powerful are we, exactly, when the rest of the world bands together against us?

And funny thing is, NOW we're NOT supposed to care about how we act towards our neighbors, towards the other countries of the world!
Good neighbors? Fug that, we're the US!
Thou shalt not covet..." DOUBLE Fug that! We need OIL, and while we're at it we'll take over the 2nd largest oil producing country AND OIL PRICES SKYROCKET
(Isn't America a great country?)
(For the rich?)


But who? There's the EU for one, and lots more to join them. Heck, even Mexico and Canada are growing in their hate for us as we roll back true Clean Air acts and irrevokably corrupt the continental --and global!-- weather and stormfronts! They are far from happy with our major exports of Acid rain, dying oceanic reefs, Global warming and increased (and permanent) toxicity of major watersheds, to name but a very few...

And oh yes, it IS happening, this hate from our once-Friends. Watch non-US news, BBC or most any other.
Maybe not so much Palau, but watch other news.

And --this point must be perfectly clear-- we have done all this, incurred all this wrath and hate,
all on our very evil own

It's time to be afraid.

There IS a Just God out there -- it's not just another empty, meaningless phrase like "Road Map" or "Hate us for our freedom"

Yes, be very very afraid.
