Smaller Crime and Commit a Larger One, Justifying a Bigger War, Trump and Not Being Able to Work With the United Nations

There is no crime larger than war, it kills more than a small incident to justify a larger scale action. There is no way to legalize it. The United Nations Charter bans it with narrow exceptions that have not remotely been met by any of the U.S. wars of the past 17 years. In 2002-2003 Iraq could have had all the weapons the warmongers were lying about. Or it could have not had them. It didn’t make the slightest difference legally, morally, or otherwise in justifying a war. Warmongers are just part of the multinational lobbies, the military complex and big oil that we are addicted to and solar, wind and electric cars can save.

So, yes, it’s fun to point out how often they’ve lied and how they lack any proof of their claims and so forth. But do so with the understanding that you’re being played, you’re being manipulated into conceding that if they ever can make a case that some crime has been committed, that will justify them in killing large numbers of people and risking global apocalypse. People are future consumers, future ideas, and future possibilities not to be thrown away like expendables. Maybe, deplorables.

Imagine if whenever 12 people were killed with a bomb or guns the “International Community” had to kill the nearest 20,000 people with poison gas. Why is the reverse so acceptable? It shouldn’t be. It isn’t legal or moral or decent or popular enough for the warmongers to let us have a public vote before they do it.

Nor religion should be used on both sides to justify the means. It is all about the weapons sale, access to a countries mineral deposits, commerce and production. War destroys, it does not construct, nurture, develop, economically developing nations. We all benefit from the less than die on this planet.

Trump’s threat of war or starting an uncontrolled world war is a threat to the human race. It is a violation of the UN Charter, which Congress pretends does not exist, but which the U.S. Constitution makes the Supreme Law of the Land along with every other treaty that the United States is party to.
