US media culture invading Iraq.....

They're using the same methods of brainwashing that they have been using against Americans for years. They know it works! They know it's like a drug and can be used to their benefit, because it keeps people nicely distracted and blissfully complacent. Just look at the majority of people in this country.

Unlike most Americans, Iraqis have a sense of national and religious pride, and they're willing to stand up and defend what is rightfully theirs. Most Americans who have been exposed to this empty, mindless garbage for so long couldn't care less about their country or their civil liberties, as long as they have the material delights which they take for granted within arm's reach. . . which they hold above all else.

This is the same mentality the globalists want to instill on the Iraqis, so they can be more easily controlled.

I am sure that if America was invaded by an outside force, many people would just stay indoors, sitting on their asses, watching reruns of Maury Povich and eating donuts while they wait to be carted away and placed in a slave camp.

Not only are the globalists trying to dumb down and sedate the Iraqis into submission, they're trying to demoralize them as well. The globalists' goal is to strip these people of their ethnic and religious pride, and indoctrinate them into the mindless, degenerate way of life that is celebrated by many of the same Americans who are too dumbed down and spoiled to see beyond their own little world, never questioning the actions of their government.

 

i can't stand tv in the US in general. it's either someone marrying another person for a million dollars, or showing how well everything in iraq is going. well, why isn't the bush family vacationing there then? it's completely ridiculous, and i think that most americans realize it... at least i hope so. we've just had it put in our faces everyday so we just accept it.
americans for the most part only appreciate matireal possesions, and acting under the dillusion that we're better compared to every other country in the world. therefore, we can tell them what to do.
i agree with the confusion about reality tv. i live in kansas, very boring. but i still don't understand the fascination of those shows.

 

I love this girls blogs...I've read like every single one of em

 

so the american elite is trying to commit a cultural genocide. I've been saying this for years. They bring "democracy to the people" but hand in hand with their system of government comes their system of economics (rampant consumerism). i hate that. those two things should be entirely different, but the us govt. doesnt see that. they want to turn us all into consumers so we buy their shit and put money in their pockets. its the new style of empire building. I dont think the us elite even realise that people might not WANT their tv dribble in their society.

 

That may be true for the present, but there will come a time when we won't be able to have all our material wants. We could be currently heading for a major depression, possibly in conjunction with Peak Oil. Regardless of how soon it will come, we will one day be out of cheap oil, and our society, which is built around that commodity, will have to change. People may be drugged on TV now, but only because they have an easy life. When things get harder, expect the "fat stupid American" to wake up, because we will. Nothing lasts forever, and I feel that sooner or later (hopefully sooner) we will all come to realize what's going on, whether it is voluntary or forced (due to a takeover or a socioeconomic crash) it will happen. Have faith people! The Japanese didn't call America the "sleeping dragon" in WWII for nothing.

 

Unfortunately, given the extent to which the myth of "our government which would never harm us or treasonously betray and abrogate every principle upon which our nation was founded" has been ingrained into the minds of our sheepish populace, by the time that "awakening" comes, the presently broadening police/surveillance state will be fully entrenched and will brutally quash any attempts at organised uprising. If you thought what they said about Saddam's brutality "upon his own people" - or that of any of a host of former US-puppet dictators turned uncooperative - was terrible, just wait to see how much more brutally Washington would mow down US citizens who dared try to throw down the elite status quo.

Oh, and be sure that more than enough regular troops, national guard, and police agencies would remain true to their indoctrination and defend those they have always existed to defend, not John and Jane Q. Public nor the "American values" established by our forebears. Hell, theyre already unquestioningly assisting in extending the reach and control of the criminals in power, so don't expect them to snap out of it in time for "the revolution".

Tyranny follows similar and clearly recognisable patterns throughout history, only the technology used evolves. Whatever comes to pass, it will be bloody as hell and I only pray I'm long in my grave by then.

 

Yeah, but during WW2 there was something to awaken, namely the best scientific/industrial infrastructure in the world. We won WW2 so decisively because there were large numbers of manufacturing plants which could be retooled for war production practically overnight.

Nowadays, about all we make here are overpaid CEOs. In the event of a crisis (be it "peak oil" or something else), the required infrastructure to mobilize a modern "Manhattan Project" for alternative energy simply isn't there. From all the manufacturing plants that have been shipped to China to the appallingly low scores on math and science among US schoolkids, the US would have a hell of a tough time pulling off a sustained national effort like WW2 or the Apollo program today.

But at least we have all our cheap plastic imported crap from Wal-Mart, right?

 

At least until the oil runs out or becomes so prohibitively expensive for transport that the flow of goods from China back to the US grinds to a halt.

Itll be a woodworker's day in the sun as we watch our technologically enslaved societies painfully revert back to the era of the horse and cart.

 

Except that we've cut down most of the forests, and shipped the wood to Japan....

 

True that. Well, strip down the chassis of the then defunct SUVs and harness up the horses.

Keep the recycling spirit alive at least.
