Conspiracy Nation -- Vol. 5 Num. 74
======================================
("Quid coniuratio est?")
-----------------------------------------------------------------
They Died, That The U.N. Might Live
===================================
Based on a recent MacNeil-Lehrer Newshour on PBS, during which
Tweedledum (Council on Foreign Relations) and Tweedledee
(Carnegie Endowment) "debated" the Bosnian situation, it seems
likely that certain powerful forces are itching for U.S.
involvement in that region:
TWEEDLEDUM: [He's not sure how best to proceed but] yes, it
seems likely that U.S. troops will have to be committed to the
region in order to assist withdrawal of U.N. troops.
TWEEDLEDEE: Can't say I agree with you on the minor points,
Tweedledum, but we will, as you say, be forced to commit
American forces. We have no other options in the region.
MODERATOR: Well folks, all experts agree: "War is peace" and
the lives of U.S. troops will soon be at risk, all for "peace",
of course. There are no other options.
So, in order that snotty Europeans (who look down on Americans
anyway) will not be especially contemptuous of us; in order that
the U.N. can escape from the area without getting their blue
berets all soiled; in order that the U.N. does not look even more
ridiculous so that, in future, it can again intrude uselessly on
some hot spot and allow eggheads and academicians to play at
soldier -- all "experts" now agree -- American boys and possibly
girls are going to have to lay down their lives and/or limbs.
Some may say that the dirty Serbs are raping the Bosnian women
and are doing ethnic cleansing. But how can we believe them? They
always say things like "They are raping the women" and "They are
eating the babies", etc. So how do we know they aren't lying now?
Read, for example, Thomas Wolfe's *Of Time And The River* for a
portrait of the young Wolfe's furor at the atrocities being done
by "the Hun", including the infamous "Rape of the Belgian Nuns"
-- which never happened -- all as prelude to World War I.
Look for 25,000 U.S. troops to be put on the ground in Bosnia --
not as a military involvement, mind you! -- but just for the
cause of "peace". Then, when the flag draped caskets start coming
home and the mothers, fathers, and lovers are torn apart in their
grief, we can all take comfort that "They died, that the United
Nations might live."
