While reading the
Text of Obama Statement on Shootings in Colorado -
Associated Press 7/20/2012, one line struck this writer as
quite astounding:
"We may never understand what leads anybody to terrorize their fellow human beings like this. Such violence, such evil is senseless. It's beyond reason."
The President may have realized afterward that since he has been ordering the shooting of thousands in a half-dozen countries, the words "evil, senseless, beyond reason" could easily reflect back on himself. A later Obama statement on the massacre in a Colorado movie house did not contain the words 'evil, senseless, violence beyond reason.'
In any case, history books, in some future, probably not to distant, day will deplore Obama's pathetic 9/11 excuse for increasing and extending a ten year old military occupation war in dirt poor Afghanistan, killing, and killing easily, young and old Afghani, who are fighting invaders of their nation as they have always done. And perhaps one day independent investigative journalism will reveal whose instructions Obama was following from within that "financial element" that FDR confided "has owned the government since the days of Andrew Jackson. "*
Historians will denounce his shameful exceeding of his executive powers under the Constitution, to have assassinated even American citizens without trial, and ridicule the pack of lies he offered in sick defense of his frightening Hellfire and Predator drones murdering intentionally and collaterally while menacing all citizens in some of the most poverty-stricken populations on earth. Historians will judge his character by his once infamous joking about using a drone on his daughters boyfriends- "they'll never know what hit them."**

Very possibly, scholars will chronicle a time when Americans
were no longer kept in ignorance by a commercial media blackout
of the last year of Martin Luther King Jr.' life, when King
called his country " the greatest purveyor of violence in the
world " and condemned US wars as all meant to maintain "unjust
overseas predatory investments."*** Such a time might well
arrive in the racing era of instant world-wide personal
communication while Barack Obama is still alive and prosecutable
for crimes against humanity, or in his own words of 2012, 'for
violent, evil, senseless and beyond reason, terrorizing fellow
human beings." - With the record of his words Obama would have
difficulty pleading insanity.
