Brussels attack is easily politicized, that’s why we’ll hear far more about it than the U.S. hospital bombing

The U.S. military bombed a humanitarian hospital last year in Afghanistan, killing 42 innocent people in the hospital.  Yet how much have you actually heard about it?  Now, how much have you heard about the Brussels attack?  The answer of why lies in what the political implications are of each attack.  Brussels elevates the Warfare State, no telling how many bombs will drop due to that attack.  The hospital attack, however, mars the image of endless war, it’s a strike against the Empire.  Activist Post

To win the War on Drugs, legalize it all

Harpers.  The Nixon-led campaign against marijuana, heroin, and other drugs was a facade that gave them the excuse to demonize anti-war hippies and blacks.  It gave them the power to raid their houses, surveil them night and day, and discredit them in the eyes of the public.  The Drug War was about power then, and it’s about power today.
