Do you think that these people would insult the memories of their loved ones?:

Most Americans learn the truth about our government & what it does to others in our names the hard way: After losing a loved one through an act of terr0r.



When it happened to my family, I could no longer accept the standard description by talking heads covering these events as "attacks on innocent civilians". Because in a democracy, we are the government. We elect our leaders. We put them into office. What they do to others in other nations, they do with the awesome power of the US military that we have given them.



Our government has overthrown democratically elected governments in other countries and installed dictators who have brutalized & enslaved their people for the benefit of US (and now transnational) corporations. Most Americans live in blissful ig.nor.ance of these facts that are known by others around the world.



I have little doubt that if terr0r!sts could get to our leaders instead of us, they would. But Obama (and Bush-Cheney before him) don't fly commercial. As we're the ones that terr0rists can get to (& since We the People are ultimately the ones, theoretically, with the power in a democratic republic to change the policy & leadership), we become the targets.
