Europe’s Complicity in Evil
by Paul Craig Roberts – LewRockwell.com
The United States cannot pretend to be a guarantor of liberty when the US government takes away liberty from its own citizens. The United States cannot pretend to be a guarantor of peace and democracy when the US government uses deception to attack other lands on false pretenses….
Address to Mut zur Ethik Conference, “Sovereignty or Imperialism,” Feldkirch, Austria, September 5, 2009:
There is a widespread supposition that Obama, being black and a member of an oppressed race, will imbue US foreign policy with a higher morality than the world experienced from Bush and Clinton. This is a delusion.
Obama represents the same ideology of American “exceptionalism” as other recent presidents. This ideology designates the United States as The Virtuous Nation and supplies the basis for the belief that America has the right, indeed the responsibility, to impose its hegemony upon the world by bribery or by force. The claim of American exceptionalism produces a form of patriotism that blinds the US population to the immorality of America’s wars of aggression.
Nothing is any different under Obama.
