John Pilger - Civil disobedience is the only way now

"There are two types of humanity in war: there are worthy victims and unworthy victims... None of it happened. It didn't happen even as it was happening."

"The war on Afghanistan was a fraud right from the beginning, just as the attack on Iraq was a fraud and the invasion of Libya is a fraud."

John Pilger, now 72 years old, has never sold out, nor swerved from the path of peace and decency.

This is actually quite rare. So many people say one thing on one day, and contradict themselves the next day, or completely switch sides and join Satan. Consider assholes like, say, Robert Fisk, who questions Israeli atrocities in one comment, and defends them in the next.

Or people like Noam Chomsky and Canadian Eric Morgolis, who condemn imperialism, but always let their Jewish supremacism show.

Consider Obama, who was given a Nobel Peace Prize (which included $10 million in cash) while he radically expanded Bush’s wars.

Consider Elizabeth Warren, who was a longtime consumer advocate, and a foe of the big banks. On 14 Sep 2011 she announced that she would run for a U.S. Senate seat in Massachusetts, and instantly reversed all her positions, becoming a politician. The Boston Herald reports that she supports the “war on terror,” and wants the USA go to war with Iran. “Our number one responsibility is to protect Americans from terrorism. That’s our job. Being tough on terrorism is enormously important.”

Consider all those “anti-war” activists who supported the war on Gaddafi, plus the current war on Central Africa, and the coming war on Syria, Venezuela, and Iran.

David Duke rails against Jews, but supports the lynching of Gaddafi.

Alex Jones always diverts attention away from Israel.

John Pilger has never pulled any of this shyte. He has remained consistent all his life. I salute him.
