We’ve lived so long under the spell of hierarchy—from god-kings to feudal lords to party bosses—that only recently have we awakened to see not only that “regular” citizens have the capacity for self-governance, but that without their engagement our huge global crises cannot be addressed. The changes needed for human society simply to survive, let alone thrive, are so profound that the only way we will move toward them is if we ourselves, regular citizens, feel meaningful ownership of solutions through direct engagement. Our problems are too big, interrelated, and pervasive to yield to directives from on high.

US Forsakes Gay Saudi Diplomat: A Story of Western Hypocrisy

Click here to access article by Tony Cartalucci from Land Destroyer Report.

The Empire's Ministry of Information seems to being achieving new highs in hypocritical news coverage and editorial bias. If it doesn't serve the interests of the Empire, news simply isn't covered. What is served up to us as information is a daily dose of Empire propaganda to keep us wage slaves from revolting, and if necessary, risking our lives to kill anyone who refuses to take orders from them. Cartalucci slams them for their coverage of global gay issues and tells us what is really happening.
While human right crusades are dominated by headlines involving the “homophobic” Russian government and tales of homosexuals being strung up across Iran, there is a larger, more sinister violator of human rights operating right within an intentional, self-imposed media blackhole created by the West. That violator is Saudi Arabia, who not only has outlawed homosexuality, but reserves execution as punishment if caught.
