Our Pakistan puppet in charge is in deep trouble, Coup whispers flying.

He's the guy supporting USA drone strikes which are killing Pakistanis.

Pakistan denies coup as court ruling rocks Zardari government.

"Western allies fear the trouble surrounding Zardari will further damage his government's ability to provide political cover for the politically difficult attacks.

CIA-operated drones have struck 48 times in the past year, killing 400 people, mostly militants, according to a Reuters tally, but they have inflamed anti-US sentiment in a country whose people are already deeply hostile to Washington."

2. The US gets attacked and we retaliate by

setting afire the ME. Yet, we bomb a sovereign nation and it's refered to as "inflaming anti-US sentiment."

We are smug and arrogant and it's no wonder the world hates us. I no longer want to financially support
the war machine. It just makes me sick to be any part of this.

Stan Goff recently wrote this and I couldn't agree with him more.

"To the people of Pakistan, my country’s government is bullying your government to flagrantly violate your sovereignty, and using your land - as well as killing, maiming, and displacing Pakistanis - to expand a desperate and doomed imperial adventure, treating your country and people as pawns. We citizens of the United States are not synonymous with the government of the United States, and half of us, according to recent polls, are opposed to this war. Non-violent resistance changed the character of our country, and is part of your historical legacy as well. I hope one day soon we can act together in peaceful and sustained solidarity - as fellow children of God - to end the war that my government has brought to your land."

Stan Goff is remarkable. I've learned so much from reading his blog. Read his biography and you will understand his words come from a place
of wisdom and experience.
