8/4/17, "How the World May End," John Pilger, Consortium News
"In his last year, according to a Council on Foreign Relations study,
Obama, the “reluctant liberal warrior,” dropped 26,171 bombs – three
bombs every hour, 24 hours a day. Having pledged to help “rid the world”
of nuclear weapons, the Nobel Peace Laureate built more nuclear
warheads than any president since the Cold War.
Trump is a wimp by comparison. It was Obama – with his Secretary of
State Hillary Clinton at his side – who destroyed Libya as a modern
state and launched the human stampede to Europe. At home, immigration
groups knew him as the “deporter-in-chief.”
One of Obama’s last acts as president was to sign a bill that handed a
record $618 billion to the Pentagon, reflecting the soaring ascendancy
of fascist militarism in the governance of the United States. Trump has
endorsed this.
Buried in the detail was the establishment of a “Center for
Information Analysis and Response.” This is a ministry of truth. It is
tasked with providing an “official narrative of facts” that will prepare
us for the real possibility of nuclear war – if we allow it." (end of article)
