Musician Speaks Truth To Power
A most direct, truth-filled, heart-felt, 12 minute declaration of what this war has been about — the machinations that provoked it, the false justifications and profit motives that have kept it going, and the glimmer of hope, from unexpected directions, of it ending soon.
These are the truths that I — and many others — have been trying to get heard over these past three years, as the roar of the official narratives flooded the land with empire serving propaganda, waving blue/yellow flags.
I had to share this as I watch the NYTimes (and all US corporate-owned mass media) busy adjusting and spinning the narratives — just as they always do, as when helping fuel the Iraq Invasion — to make sure that this war keeps going on, serving The War Racket.
