The Real Face of The Empire
15th January 2015
By Andreas Toupadakis, PhD
Contributing Writer for Wake Up World
People worldwide need to decide soon what this global war without end, as described by the so-called superpower, is all about. Is it against terrorists or is it against humanity and human dignity? Is the government agenda of war widening the gap between rich and poor, and setting brother against brother? Is this not state terrorism? If it is not, then what is it? And is it worth reacting, or should we just continue to go on with our everyday chores as usual?
How ordinary people answer these questions in the coming months and years will determine how their life dreams unfold. If they knew their true condition and what will be coming upon them if they do not get up from their comfortable chairs, they would not wait even for a minute to fiercely resist their comfortable yoke.
To move towards safety and freedom we need to redefine what civilization is.
Do we have time to do that? Who knows?
Many writers and spokesmen of good intention almost exclusively present only a general large picture. But what is the small picture? There are many small pictures that make up the big picture.
Will the man or woman who is working at the detention center or the weapons laboratory realize that she/he is serving a system, which is corrupted, bloodthirsty and deceiving? And if these people do understand, will they take the leap of faith and abandon it? And if they do, will more of their friends and co-workers follow their example? And will the people around these people support them until they stand on their feet? Can people around them support them even just in word when they themselves do not live a simple life because their livelihood depends on the system that destroys the earth and its people? Would it not then be a better direction for us all to move towards a sustainable way of living?
