EXTREME ARROGANCE AND HUBRIS RAMPANT IN AMERICA
MER - Washington - 26 February:
The Americans remain cocked...Madeleine at the helm.
They are insisting on a new Security Council resolution
designed to manipulate the U.N. behind their militaristic
"dual containment" policies. The intent is quite clear:
when the Americans can next manipulate things their way
they will attack, claiming U.N. backing. Prior to recent
weeks they even claimed that Security Council resolutions
back in 1991 authorized them to bomb Iraq in 1998!
What arrogance and hubris lies at the heart of the
ongoing deceptions, distortions, and lies, that flow from
the American government these days, with so little serious
challenge from the generally compliant and subservient
American media.
A few days ago on NBC's "Today" program, this is what
the American Secretary of State candidly, and maybe more
revealingly than she had in mind, declared to the world:
"WE ARE AMERICA!"
"If we have to use force, it is because we are
America! We are the indispensable nation. We
stand tall. We see further into the future."
Ms. Madeleine Albright
U.S. Secretary of State
