The plutocracy appreciated his role in the past and it is not unlikely that it appreciates Carter using the word "apartheid" in his book title today. It's not that the plutocracy wants people rising up against apartheid. On the contrary. They want this dangerous word rendered less effective as a word that can rally people against Zionism. Carter neutralizes the dangerous word "apartheid" by posing as a champion of Palestinian victims of apartheid, but defining "apartheid" to mean not the official discrimination against non-Jews that is the essence of the state of Israel itself, but rather the wrongful occupation of foreign land by Israel--a state that Carter insists has every right to exist even though (as Carter does not admit) the basis of its existence--that it is a state only of the Jewish people and that it requires ethnic cleansing to exist--is anti-democratic to the core. Carter could never have succeeded so effectively in his effort to detach the word "apartheid" from the reality of its being an apt description of the state of Israel per se, if he hadn't developed his reputation for being a critic of Israel.

I mean, really, the best way to manipulate people is to make them think it's their idea.

That would require so much more power and capability. It would be a lot easier to just do it the old fashioned way, with brown-shirts and goons.

It appears to pretty easy to control the people with entertainment programs and celebrities.

Bread and Circuses. Nothing new.

Even Rome, however, found that they could control the world cheaper and easier with troops and a boot on the neck than with secret cabals and behind the scenes manipulation.

The reason I don't believe it is for the same reason I don't believe something like 9/11 was staged or the moon landing was faked - too many points of failure.

Illuminati?

Who knows, maybe we're all just brains in a jar?

What if George Bush was installed to grease the skids, so to speak, get us all used to Socialism lite, so that Obama could come in and push their agenda through?

What if our votes really don't count, and it's all a sham? I mean, I have no idea who everyone voted for - "they" could tell me anything and I have no way of refuting it. What if even the polls are manufactured? Worse than we already know they are, anyway. What if this cabal controls the media, both right and left, and feeds us the information to make us feel like we have some say-so?

What if it all truly is a lie and we're merely being manipulated for power and wealth? I mean, we know we are manipulated by our politicians, but what if they're just pawns in a much larger game?

What if there truly is nothing we can do about the state of our country and our world?

Our votes count but we, the people, are too ####ing stupid to use them on what we support. As long as we line up like lemmings, I mean ALL of us, even me, ( ) and pick our lesser of two evils, time and again, because the other guy is oh, just so heinous, then, the big players will, in fact, treat us like lemmings. Why not use us if we're willing to be used?

Consider, the people who do NOT vote could make a winner out of a Ron Paul or a Ralph Nader if they simply get off their ass and go vote. We're told only 50-60% of us vote presidential, I believe it.

I know most of my fellow right wing zealots are far closer to Ron Paul than John McCain and I know most of you NEVER liked McCain and you all tell me you voted for him anyway, so, there is some evidence that the vote is honest, right?

So, if we act like Lemmings, Dems, GOP'ers, where is the motivation for the parties to change? The indies and moderates will vote one way or the other so, they are not the problem. They will move.

It's us party line people that are the problem, especially when we constantly are unhappy with what our party does when it has the chance yet get in line and support them again and again anyway.

Let us quit being lemmings.

Then I would say people better figure out what side they are on. Some people wont have ROE to hold them back.
