A Remedy to Abjection: Engagement or Silence

Everything started on Sept. 11, 2011. One does not necessarily have to be old to remember the unfortunate events that have shifted the world since then. Anyone between 20 and 30 years old has been able to witness, in the 10-year period up to yesterday, how the main perpetrators of that tragic event kept harvesting colossal quantities of petroleum while accumulating more and more power around the world.

It is unfortunate, not because of the attack perpetrated by the enemies of the empire on the metropolis that didn’t occur, but because of the 2,952 people of New York City’s lower strata who were sacrificed by the direct perpetrators and intellectuals of the cave-dwelling [extremist] Yankees. When I talk of “lower strata,” it is because I compare them to a higher class who did not, but who were to, occupy the many offices of the twin towers an hour after the dreadful pretense of the Bush administration. And when I say “unfortunate,” it is to stress the disgraceful sacrifice that has helped the empire and its allies to justify anything that rationally is unjustifiable that has happened over the past decade, until the miserable conquest of Libya and the assassination of Gadhafi.

This is nothing new. Napoleon sacrificed an entire army to cross the bridge formed by the corpses to conquer a city surrounded by a moat in one of his numerous campaigns. Searching through many other battles in history, commanders’ forced sacrifice of their own troops — those killed by friendly fire as part of a tactical objective — is so common that it is worth recounting even if only approximately, to consider the verisimilitude of the rogue maneuvers by the CIA and the Bushes on Sept. 11, 2011.

It’s due to this — and because we know our history and the despicable acts of human beings, who are prey to ambition, arrogance, cruelty and insanity — that people cannot be deceived anymore. People don’t need to wait for the downgrading of state departments implicated in the same; they need neither books, nor the different versions of historians nor newspaper archives to look into the “crystal ball” available to any humble observer.

Soon after that turning point in 2011, I published a controversial article, “I Accuse,” which contained reflections studded with crude details observed in the wake of the planes crashing into the twin towers. This thesis was shared, corrected and enlarged with investigative reporting by, among others, Thierry Meyssan, director of the Réseau Voltaire. The article maintained the same thesis I propose now. It is clear that criminals underestimate the effects that could result from further research and reflection on the evidence — the reflections of millions of people in the world accustomed to piercing the veils that cover the official reality of every day, because this artifice has become coarser each time, ever since we have been subjected to power.

The calculated invasion of two countries replete with oil and the strategic invasion of another country as a crucial connector have been completed within 10 years, at the rate of three and a-half years per country — and all according to a demonic plan preconceived for at least 15 years. It is possible to predict that in 2014 the next will fall.

This is the consummate neocolonial knavery perpetrated against three countries of different cultures since World War II. Have the authors of this horrendous crime continued? The hegemonic nation, causing a greater sense of inner rebellion and helplessness to its shame, has joined Old Europe, including Spain. Could someone normal not feel exasperation and sadness for such a felony?

Thus, with just so few observations, few comments and the little gray matter I have devoted to this Spanish faction that is getting ready to govern according to all predictions, I bargain altogether not to analyze the horrible massacres of these 10 years of the empire and Europe. It is not worth spending even a gram of eccentric political science on what are merely feces excreted by the perversion of a fraction (always the same one) of human society. Such is the weariness and bitterness caused by this moral dejection; so many insults to reason and civilization by the governments of Western countries, that I feel obligated to remove the consciousness of those who haven’t removed them on their own. And I cannot be moved to act about what happened on Sept. 11, in Afghanistan, Iraq and Libya. I think it would be best to keep a vow of silence for a long time, and the longer the better. However, know at least that they are undoubtedly deceiving us, and that silence is nothing more than the most appropriate course of action, because all the exclamations and all the adjectives become ridiculous when facing these allied monsters …
