Why are Americans puzzled that foreigners consider the U.S. to be the nation that’s the biggest threat to world peace?
Consider how we are being lied to by the propaganda media that pass for “news” media in our country.
Of course, there was the infamous example of how we were lied to about “Saddam’s WMD,” which lies caused us to support invading Iraq and replacing there a local tyrant with something that’s far worse for the Iraqi people. We don’t complain about having been deceived into wasting $3 trillion of our own tax dollars, and thousands of American lives, and hundreds of thousands of Iraqi lives, in a venture that increased misery for Iraqis and that produced nothing of benefit to ourselves (but lots of business for American-owned firms). However, there are lots of recent examples, too, such as today’s civil war in Ukraine, which was caused by Barack Obama, but which our “news” media blame instead on Vladimir Putin.
.....Russian-speaking Ukrainians are being terrorized and massacred by people that Obama placed in power, and Americans are deceived to blame the victims, and to blame Russian leader Vladimir Putin, as the source of the problem.
So: Why are Americans puzzled that foreigners consider the U.S. to be the nation that’s the biggest threat to world peace?
Maybe it’s because we live in a dictatorship of the type that George Orwell’s novel 1984 described.
