Facebook now edits individual posts, deletes link to Max Blumenthal article claiming it was “spam”-Commenter to Coleen Rowley article, “US Wars Come Home to Roost”…(Mr. Blumenthal opposes Empires so must be gagged)

 .

“Facebook informed me yesterday that my link to something by Max Blumenthal [Max Blumenthal, TheGrayZone twitter, Max Blumenthal twitter, The Gray Zone, Against Empire] was blocked because it was “spam.” Commenter to Coleen Rowley article on consequences of decades of US “wars of choice:”

July 8, 2021, “US Wars Come Home to Roost,” Coleen Rowley, Consortium News

“Coleen Rowley spotlights the ever-growing list of domestic blowback incidents.”…

The all-volunteer military is in effect a mercenary force, very different from the Second World War and earlier wars which “drafted” men….Recruiting and making militarist killers kill people in foreign countries is something else.

The U.S. long ago gravitated to professional mercenary forces to fight illegal wars of aggression as part of its “glorious dream” establishing Pax America, or in other words, world domination….

This author warned just days before America’s 2003 invasion of Iraq, in a piece published in The New York Times, that this very thing would transpire.

Although shocked news reporters will invariably claim that bewildered authorities are “seeking a motive” for the next horrible, senseless outbreaks of domestic killing, the terrible internal cost of our forever wars should by now be glaringly obvious to everyone.”

People just don’t get it. As long as Trump and and Alex Jones are banned they are happy. And they could care less about all the other people who are censored on Twitter and Facebook.”…[image of Max Blumenthal added by Susan]

Yes. Corporate media denies the Left and Right equally. Anything that disturbs the centrist, liberal, pro-capitalist consensus of Rep/Dem and here Tory/Labour is denied access. I’ve had many conversations with soft liberals who celebrate the banning of Trump and refuse to understand that denying free speech to their enemies always means denying it to anyone else the media doesn’t like.”
