Bill Weinberg: Welcome to World War 4

[0rganism]

As usual, Mr. Weinberg is able to tie lot of disparate material together into a coherent presentation, this time about the agreement among globalist proponents and resistors regarding the overall scenario.

WELCOME TO WORLD WAR 4
by Bill Weinberg

When opposite ends of the political spectrum agree on an initially improbable proposition, there is often something to it.

Since the end of World War II and concomitant dawn of the nuclear age in 1945, the planet has been anticipating a conflict worthy of the name "World War III," with all its apocalyptic connotations. Two days after 9-11, New York Times columnist Tom Friedman announced that it had finally arrived: "Does my country really understand that this is World War III?"

Similarly, the day after the horrific Sept. 3, 2004 schoolhouse massacre in Beslan, North Ossetia, the Times quoted Moscow's Orthodox Rev. Aleksandr Borisov warning his parishioners of pro-Chechen terror attacks throughout Russia, and declaring: "World War III has begun."

Meanwhile, former CIA director James Woolsey--a top advocate of the attack on Iraq as a member of the Pentagon's Defense Policy Board--proffers a different historical configuration. In April 2003, just after the invasion, he wrote that the Iraq campaign was "part of World War IV." By Woolsey's math, the Cold War itself was World War III. He warned that the new world conflict, like its immediate predecessor, "is going to be measured, I'm afraid, in decades."

Woolsey's concept has started to catch on among the neo-conservatives. In the September 2004 issue of Commentary, Norman Podhoretz published an essay entitled "World War IV: How It Started, What It Means, and Why We Have to Win." Finding that "the great struggle into which the United States was plunged by 9/11 can only be understood if we think of it as World War IV," Podhoretz drew on the work of Eliot A. Cohen, another Defense Policy Board member, Project for the New American Century co-founder and Iraq war advocate.

3. Orwell would not be shocked

by Woolsey's concept.

Woolsey seems to me to be the biggest f*kin liar fraud on the global politcal scene. He leverages his former post as DCI to make people believe what he says is true.

The fact that Americans are trusting their future to people such as Woolsey is sadder than I can possibly do justice with words.

4. how is chasing a bunch of third world nuts WW4?

In WWII and the Cold War, we were arguably up against roughly our equals. Chasing terrorists, we have money and technology on them. Even if they were able to pull off a 9/11 size event every couple of years, it's not like they could destroy or take over the US.

When are people going to see through this marketing BS?

5. That is Mr Woolsey's description.

He isn't one of "us", if you follow?
I don't know that we agree with him, here.

There are some of us here that think what
Bush is doing is very dangerous, but Mr. Woolsey
is all for Mr. Bush's current course.

7. The next neo-con NGO nerd will stake a claim to WW5

These people are so full of shit trying to create the next defense contractor/police state paradigm that is going to enhance their credentials as "national security" expert. They invent myths to cover up government sponsored terrorism, treason, and war mongering and other skullduggery meant to impose oppression on the many and wealth and power on the few.
