The Empire 297

'Building A Constituency For World Peace
By Casey Butler

· "Imagine..." -John Lennon

We are America, the City on the Hill: An enlightened land that hosts an enlightened and educated generation. The year is 2007. We have world history at our fingertips - the successes and failures of the entire human race are open to our view. No generation before us has had so much historical and scientific information available to it.
The overwhelming evidence provided through the history of humanity on planet Earth tells us that World Peace is not in the interest of any human government, no matter what it is called, nor is World Peace in the interest of any known organized religion condoned and supported by any human government, no matter what that religion is called.
Recent events testify against the intentions of our own government and the organized religions practiced under it's tax umbrella. In the current conflict scenario known as "The War On Terror", the duly elected United States Government has shown no interest in exempting itself from the harsh judgment of human history. Having rejected the tenets of international law in favor of unilateral gunslinging, history's judgement of the USA will be the same as other outlaw states and empires that have preceded us. Historical comparisons with previous failed governments abound.
Ours is a system of government founded upon the highest of evolved human ideals of justice, liberty, reason, and global human equality. They are ideals compiled and instituted by our founders, ideas evolved through millinea of suffering around the world.
However, since its founding, ours is also a system which we, the people, have evolved our way.
Over the last 231 years, through hard times and prosperity, the last 60 years as a nuclear superpower, we the people have "democratically" re-designed and modified our system to be a government dedicated to the efficient and ruthless advancement of our own interests by threat of force. These interests at which we have become so adept in advancing are best summarized as the interests of acquiring and protecting wealth of embarrassingly disgusting proportions when viewed in the face of the global poverty and suffering that surrounds us.
We, the American People, every single one of us who participates in American society, are responsible for the actions of our government today.
The unvarnished truth is that we have only begun to suffer the consequences of those actions.'
