William Blum's Occasional Anti-Empire Report - some sane analysis
#4
As usual from Blum, common sense and facts versus a deluge of lies and deceits.... and endless propaganda.

And yet, I think most ordinary Americans not familiar with deep politics would laugh or simply blank over if they began reading the above essay. The sense I have, and it's getting stronger and stronger, is that the rest of the world are getting messages like this and waking up to the reality, but the US is completely schizophrenic about it. The word hopeless springs to mind, and it would be marginally incorrect to be fair, but the effort to beat through the tangled darkness of American group think is enormous.
The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
