Looting

THE AMERICAN NATION was founded violently, in a traitorous insurrection, Popular American history glorifies the "Boston Tea Party", which was nothing other than a wanton act of looting involving the destruction of private property by a gang of armed thugs. The scenario is familiar, especially in light of present day difficulties. Thomas Jefferson, America's foremost founder, believed that it would be necessary to have a violent revolution in the United States about every generation. Or, as he said: "the tree of liberty shall, from time to time, require the nourishment of the blood of patriots and tyrants." the American people ceaselessly venerate its military forces and military power, especially since nine eleven. We also cherish our nearly uninterrupted history of highly organized, socially sanctioned violence, our wars of aggression. We erect statues and monuments to military heroes, elect them to high public office, and we build monuments to our wars, including the immoral ones. Any society truly dedicated to the established and preservation of peace would celebrate peace, not war, and would study its wars of history with reluctance and sadness, and would erect monuments to peacemakers and poets.
