DAVID EDWARDS—Over the subsequent decades, the deadly potential of this misplaced power has been fully realised, not just in the United States but throughout the West.
Leading US-UK and other Western political parties, along with most corporate media, are now packed with politicians and journalists clearly influenced by, or actively serving, this military-industrial agenda.
It is the influence of this war machine that causes virtually every media organisation to support virtually every US-UK war of aggression in Serbia, Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya and Syria. It seeks out or stokes lucrative bloodbaths in Ukraine and Gaza. It smears and denounces anyone calling for non-violent alternatives as ‘useful idiots’, de facto ‘traitors’, siding with Milosevic, Saddam Hussein, Qaddafi, Assad and Putin.
