The notion that the United States is an empire of lies would be
difficult to dispute by anyone who has followed the events of the
last decade.
It’s a sad fact that today the absolute majority of Washington’s
policies along with the foundation of so-called, “American
Democracy” are built upon blatant lies.
So is it any wonder that so-called American, “heroes” of the Rio
Olympics: swimmers James Feigen, Ryan Lochte, Gunnar Benz and
Jack Conger, provided false testimonies about them being robbed
in a taxi on the way to the Olympic Village?
It turns out now that nobody came as close as even attempting
to rob them.
Now these athletes may face charges of making false accusations in
Brazil, along with being accused of discrediting the sitting Brazilian
President Dilma Vana Rousseff who has been the prime target of
Washington’s meddling recently.
In all honesty, there is no need for being surprised, since these,
“hero-swimmers” have been educated regarding Washington’s lies,
encountered in virtually all aspects of an American’s life.
The White House has been lying its way through various attempts
to overthrow unwanted governments and politicians upon the
international stage, spreading disinformation through such CIA,
“benefactors” like George Soros.
The entire world witnessed former US Secretary of State Colin
Powell in all seriousness displaying tubes with unknown substances
in them before the UN Security Council, claiming they represented,
“convincing and incriminating” evidence against Iraq’s Saddam
Hussein, enough to launch a military attack against the nation.
We remember how renowned American journalist, Pulitzer Prize
Laureate Seymour Hersh, caught the US government officially
disseminating lies about how, “terrorist number one” Osama bin
Laden was actually killed.
He has also published an investigation piece under the title,
“Whose Sarin“, demonstrating that the US government and
President Barack Obama personally, deliberately lied when
they claimed that the Syrian government had used sarin
poison gas back in 2013.
It’s been announced that Hersh was using information he had
received from sources within the US intelligence community
and the Pentagon.
This evidence confirmed that both the White House statements
and fraudulent propaganda unwound by the media, pursued the
sole goal – to create a pretext for armed intervention in Syria
and replace the government in Damascus with Washington’s
subordinates, thus taking full control of the country.
Moreover, the American Thinker would note that:
Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton committed
her second gaffe in as many days on the campaign trail Monday
night, claiming that the US, “did not lose a single person” in
Libya during her time as secretary of state. To Hillary Clinton,
the four male officials and warriors do not matter at all. They
are at best an inconvenience. If they were alive, they would have
to be dealt with, but because they are dead, they can be forgotten.
But honestly, what does one expect from the likes of Hillary
Clinton if even the Washington Post wouldn’t hesitate to present
a video filled with her lies and “shifting positions?”
Her ideas on Bosnia, healthcare, Wall Street, NAFTA are ever-
shifting, since she’s convinced that Americans are unable to
memorize basic facts or recall even recent American history.
Accusing Hillary Clinton of blatant hypocrisy, alternative media
source Counter Punch would use a hash tag #NeverHillary, while
giving the recent Democrats’ champion the following evaluation:
“She’s sleazy – a cheater and a liar”, noting that she wanted to
set the minimum wage at the level of 12 dollars per hour, but
since Bernie’s 15 dollars per hour was more popular, she claimed
she wanted to introduce precisely the same wage. When pressed,
she conceded she’d “like” 15 dollars per hour, but would not lift
a finger to make it happen federally. Incredibly, she still conducts
herself in this same manner.
The Baltimore Sun did not hesitate to accuse Clinton of the
deliberate concealment of facts from Congress and the American
people either, noting that the State Department’s inspector general
released a report last week concluding that Hillary Clinton is a
breathtakingly brazen and consistent liar.
What’s infuriating about all of this is that it is not, in fact, news.
Over a year ago, Hillary Clinton held a press conference at the
United Nations with the intent to put the whole controversy around
her released emails to rest, yet, nearly every significant statement
she made was a lie, The Baltimore Sun would note, adding that we
have known it for a year now, that from the earliest days of this
scandal, Clinton was lying.
So what behavior one can expect from most American citizens,
including these, “hero-swimmers”, when even at the highest levels,
officials are lying blatantly, while displaying no fear whatsoever of
any potential consequences?
What’s even more striking is that those liars are being promoted
and encouraged in the US political establishment, and they are
being allowed to occupy the highest political positions in the state,
as if we are being told:
“In lies we trust here, it is our symbol and our flag, because we are
the Empire of Lies.“
