We all are already quite familiar with usable lying. We call these ‘white lies’. “No, darling, you don’t look fat.” “Sorry I didn’t call. I lost your phone number.” “Your kids are so doggone cute.” And thank goodness! Right? We’ve all avoided the harsh consequences of total honesty, smoothed over…
Amidst all of the sensible and sane cries to eliminate nuclear weapons, we are caught in a self-sustaining, self-reinforcing feedback loop. Call it the Death Spiral of Human Annihilation. Yes, the U.S. throughout its history, despite official denials even among historians who should know better — maybe they do but…
We are now being treated to a predictable deluge of hand-wringing, grandstanding, virtue signaling, gaslighting, hysteria, pontificating and snide told-you-so commentary, most of it stating the obvious, most of it just repeating what we’ve known all along. Attacking Afghanistan was a big mistake. What a disaster! What an embarrassment! Our…
It’s so long ago, I can’t remember how it came to my attention. I was 13 years old and no one in my family or anyone in the blue collar community we lived in had a clue who Bertrand Russell was or why he was taking on the military and political establishments…
Well, we’re finally getting out of Afghanistan. That’s great news! But I have one question. Why did we go into Afghanistan in the first place? That was 20 YEARS AGO! You might think it was to catch Osama bin Laden. Well, folks, the Taliban offered to turn him over to…
In the forums for our national conversation, there is no earnest discussion of peace and cooperation now … period! I’m not talking lip service or political posturing. I’m talking REAL DISCUSSION, widespread, inclusive, comprehensive discussion. In the media, by our leaders, among everyday people. NONE! We have a war economy,…
FINALLY, WE’LL SEE UP CLOSE WHAT $6+ TRILLION DOLLARS LOOKS LIKE! Using CGI, we’ll fly a helicopter around the six “trillion dollar buildings” in the graphic on the first page of this outline. Maybe we won’t say exactly what we’re seeing at first, allowing the drama and awe to build.…
How can we make this a game-changing, paradigm-shifting movie? The Peace Dividend film will overwhelmingly and convincingly lay bare the devastating domestic consequences of our out-of-control military, perpetual war, the War On Terror, and the delusions of world empire which have gripped our power-drunk political leaders. “WAR IS MAKING YOU…
What better way is there to present the Peace Dividend concept to everyday citizens across the nation than a full-length feature movie? We have a team working on a basic script outline right now. We are putting feelers out to professors, political experts, journalists, prominent activists, to appear and offer…
They say things have to get worse before they get better. But how much worse can the U.S. and the world tolerate? Driven purely by institutional self-preservation and relentless pursuit of profits by the military-industrial-complex, the cancer of American military presence continues to metastasize unchecked across the planet. Not satisfied…
