“You’re Either With Us Or You’re Against Us” Version 2.0

War Hawks Pretend that Questioning What’s Happening In Ukraine Means You’re a Putin Supporter

Liberals correctly mocked Bush when he said of the Iraq war and the war on terror: “You’re either with us or you’re against us.”

After all, such a black-and-white approach cuts off the ability to think, to look at the facts, and to address complexity.

But the government and mainstream media is doing exactly the same thing in regards to Ukraine.  In essence, they’re saying:

You either support without question the new Ukrainian government – including military assistance from the U.S. and NATO -  or you’re with Putin.

As former Associated Press and Newsweek reporter Robert Parry writes:

The demonization of Putin in the Western media has been so total that anyone who dares question the most extreme interpretations of his behavior is denounced as a “Putin apologist.” Indeed, any attempt to present a nuanced narrative of what has happened in Ukraine is dismissed as somehow promoting Russian imperialism or spreading Russian propaganda.

This oppressive “group think” has, in turn, made formulating any rational policy toward Russia and Ukraine politically impossible in Official Washington.

In the run up to the Iraq war, millions of Americans pointed out that Saddam Hussein might be an awful tyrant, but the “weapons of mass destruction” claims were false and so we shouldn’t plunge headlong into a disastrous war. (The protests against the Iraq war were the largest protests in history, and yet the politicians plowed ahead with the disastrous war and refused to listen to the facts … or the will of the people.)

Millions of patriotic Americans are now saying the same thing about Ukraine: Putin might be an awful tyrant, but there’s no evidence that he’s trying to take over the world, and neo Nazis appear to be causing most of the violence in Ukraine.

Even the New York Times admits that the Russian army is not very involved in the anti-government protests.

  • Are you with the 90% that disapproves of the beauracrats running our government or will you support a tyrannical government. The rebellion has close to sixty million supporters, and we are not afraid to die for our Constitutional rights, it’s all that matters. I’m remaining patient, but geeting sick and tired of all the talk, it’s time to walk the walk.

    Keep in mind Snowden has already threaten to release every single address, from the government to the banks, as well as corporations involved in the massive fraud. If this is true, then it’s a race against time, because they will have to shut down all forms of elecrtonic communication sooner rather than later, so this information doesn’t get out. They are very aware of this and if you think like a criminal you would be able to see where this debauchery is headed.

    There is no honor among thieves and they will do whatever is necessary to cover up the collapse that is approaching. We are dealing with psychotic maniacs, who don’t want egg on their faces.

  • “You’re Either With Us Or You’re Against Us”

    Prescott Bush and Wallstreet Banksters funded Adolf Hitler and the Nazis so what they really mean is “You’re Either with OUR TERRORISTS or you are Against US”

    Our Terrorists being Ukraine Nazis and Hitlers Arab Nazis from WW2 aka The Muslim Brotherhood in the Middle East

    The Fourth Reich is back….NWO…Same Fascist Shi’it :evil:

    • Your not kidding. They had the Third Reich on the History channel two weeks ago and it was a scary reality. For example, all of Hitlers minions believed the party was going to last forever. Every weekend, the Germans would host parties, all you can eat and drink. Not to mention, all the millions of fanatic Hitler supporters in the crowd and the look on their faces was like they were possessed. Sound familiar? Until one day there was no more parties.

      The similarities between then and now is identical in every aspect. It amazes me that someone probably took the time to study what Hitler did wrong. Folks, it looks just like the Fourth Reich. If it quacks like a duck and walks like a duck, it’s probably a duck.

  • My position on this is simple!

    I AM WITH GOD AND WITH NO FOUL FILTHY HUMAN SCUM!

    SO THE QUESTION IS: Are with God or the Devil.

    Cause being with the devil and being with the devil is not choice.
