Truest statement of the Week

It's cult like behavior and it's somewhat chilling. Name the countries in the world, I've been to a few of them, where people walk around with the president's face on t-shirts? Like this is sort of unheard of in the United States. When you're walking around with the face of a man who is in control of the most powerful empire in history, with nuclear weapons deployed around the world, with hundreds of nations with its forces in one form or another deployed there, with two overt, hostile occupations going on, when people walk around with the face of the leader of that country on their shirt, it says something about how deeply hypnotized people have become in this country.



-- Jeremy Scahill, WBAI's Law & Disorder, Monday, June 1st. (At the Law & Disorder website, go to May 2005 for May 25, 2009 because the pledge drive delayed it being broadcast on WBAI.)
