The military had their new cold war. They were fighting a worldwide "war on terror". They were back on the gravy train. They did not want it to end so soon.

So long as they had Bin Laden free, they had a reason to continue spending trillions of dollars on new military gadgets and the defense budget. All they had to do was keep the people in fear. And they did it masterfully.

But this is not a "war on terror". This is a war on the American people at large. We are spending our national wealth on these greedy bastards, as millions and millions go unemployed and the middle class shrinks like a snail in a salt flat.

Make no mistake. This war is a continuation of the military theft of our economy. Nothng has changed.
