Ask Not Who Bankrolled Falluja: You Did!
Thursday, January 6, 2005 at 06:29PM
For three weeks beginning October 14, say sources at Fairness and
Accuracy in Reporting, the assault on Falluja was pure PSYOPS, a mere
announcement of assault, designed to provoke "the opposition" into
premature response. The lie worked pretty well. "The opposition"
abandoned their so-called safe havens and "melted into the night." For
this reason, many residents of the city expected the PSYOPS theater to
let out early, too. One hapless doctor, Hakim Mirzoev, says he
expected the Americans to surround the city, fire a few shots, and
declare victory. He didn't realize that a greater PSYOPS scheme was in
the making, a plan to flatten Falluja under boot and mortar so that
the City of Mosques could be rebuilt by Christian Soldiers into a
Model City "a Pasadena by the Euphrates." With this world-historical
Crusade in mind, Falluja was crushed, thousands were killed and
wounded, hundreds of thousands displaced, so that America could
perceive itself great in the gaze of the world. So who made
Falluja possible? Who enabled budgets to be filled with imperial plans?
American taxpayers did. The moral tracer on this funding leads to me
and you, the co-investors who backed this pre-holiday discount on the
lives of Fallujans, thousands of lives, forever lost and unlived. To
pay for this moral bankruptcy, we got up in the morning, worked all
day, and sent money to the war machine. Ask not who bankrolled Falluja.
