Esmense,

Presumably, the deal between the Department of Defense and Halliburton unit Kellogg, Brown & Root is determined by capitalist interests which lead to the seizure of the Iraqi Oil Ministry. So far, the unstated purpose of this war brings about the police state which has come to pass. Perhaps for the first time since the late 1940s, the apparent demise of “anti-Americanism” as a respectable means of stifling recognition of American imperialism leads our attention to a humanitarian disaster of unimaginable scale. It appears that the American state, with its unelected president, venal Supreme Court, silent Congress, gutted Bill of Rights and compliant media represents the crushing of internal dissent in order to propagate the end of any possibility of social justice in a reactionary state.

Would you agree?
