15 Years of Crime

Drew Phipps Wrote:Michael Flynn is an entirely unreliable biased witness with respect to Obama. He's a top Trump crony now, so I'd not take anything he says about any Democrat any more seriously than I'd take Trump's sudden interest in going to church in predominantly black communities.

I disagree that the Democrats have followed the Wolfowitz game plan during Bill Clinton or Barack Obama. If anything, it seems to me that they have been yanking back as hard on the reins as they can. I wish I was confident that Hillary would do the same.

Not really, Flynn made his case about ISIS being a salafist danger in the ME well before Trump began running. It is also worth highlighting the fact that a Pentagon document was leaked that confirmed what Flynn was saying.

In which case it is more the case that it is Obama who would be an entirely unreliable biased witness with respect to Flynn and not the other way around.

We'll agree to disagree about the democratic party. My position derives from an entirely non-partisan position. And I have little but contempt for Bill Clinton for many reasons. You might remember that during his administration the US shipped Usama bin Laden's al-Qaeda / Mujahideen units to Bosnia to fight against the Serbs in the war there. Indeed, according to the German magazine Der Spiegel, Usama actually travelled from Afghanistan to Bosnia to rally his troops. His time as governor of Arkansas and the drugs that flowed through that state during his term in office is legion.

I'm quite strongly am of the opinion that the democratic and republican parties have been for decades nothing other than a magic lamp show to keep Americans fast asleep so that the US elite can do what they do without complaint. And that if one wishes to really comprehend the real designs of the elite, then one should simply cast objective eyes at US foreign policy decisions which almost always reveal their true machinations. Domestic politics are the sideshow.
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.
