How Stupid Are You America?

...Wake Up

President Bush's intelligence or lack thereof has been questioned even in the US mainstream media, and especially so in the British papers like the Guardian. The "misunderestimated" President denies having dyslexia, so there's no excuse there. There has been some speculation on whether his problem to intelligently articulate himself stems from a low I.Q. or brain damage possibly through chronic cocaine consumption.



That is all of minor importance, however, because this man, stupid he may or may not be, makes decisions that are not his own but he acts for vested oil interests, the very same who made him President: "But it was former Vice-President Gore who had told the American people that if they chose Mr Bush to lead the country, he will be unable to do anything about oil prices, because he will be a hostage to the big oil industry interests."

Now Bush and his entourage, with the help of America's fathers and sons in the military, is securing one of the largest oil reserves of the world for American oil companies (the Iraqi opposition government in exile has made it clear that oil contracts will be renegotiated after the war), making sure American SUVs got enough cheap gasoline to guzzle, and most importantly not letting all that nice military hardware, which makes the USA the superpower that it is and runs only on oil, go to waste. Because it has been established by oil experts, that "at the current rate there would be only enough oil to sustain the planet for another 35 years under the best of scenarios." Control over Iraqi oil reserves therefore means control over who gets the rest of the world's oil.

Bush says its not a war against Arab states but it's exactly that: It's that the Muslims don't have the control over their own oil. (By 2010, Muslim nations could control 60 percent of the world`s oil production and, more importantly, 95 percent of the world`s oil exports.)

The real question is: Why are the American people so complacent to all of this and don't act out more as they have been? To the abolishing of civil liberties, the robbing of their pension funds by the government, the stripping of environmental protections, the turning of the USA into a world dictator?

Is it simply that the American people have been conditioned to accept and not to question what the government and the big media tells them? Are Americans still in enough shock because of 9/11 (and the Anthrax scare, sniper madness, etc.) not to get any idea that something's wrong, that the USA is turning into another Nazi Germany?

These factors definitely play into it because the American people have been sold hook line and sinker into the whole 'War on Terrorism' story, just as the world has been sold for decades on the 'War on Drugs'. But, thankfully today with the help of the internet information goes around much quicker and krooks get exposed sooner.



For people who have watched the education system in the US and also in Western Europe develop it seems clear why the American people have been so easily duped. They have been programmed no less, not using a too strong a word, for a push-button mentality.

For instance, in today's teacher's literature one learns the following:

'Conditioned Reflex Therapy' by Andrew Salte: "We are meat in which habits have taken up residence. We are a result of the way other people have acted to us. . . . Where there is a conditioned reflex, there is no will. Our will power is dependent on our previously learned reflexes." (P. 49)

William E. Martin’s Rediscovering the Mind of the Child: "A science of behavior emphasizes the importance of environmental manipulation and scheduling and thus the mechanization and routinization of experience. Similarly, it stresses performance in the individual. Doing something, doing it efficiently, doing it automatically - these are the goals. It is the mechanization of man .... The result is the triumph of technology: a push button world with well-trained button-pushers.” (P. 120)

This writer had the following experience: "Your Intrepid Correspondent was talking in a high school to a class of seniors about the career of Adolf Hitler, but there was a problem. I wasn’t discussing Hitler the way I was supposed to. For instance, I was explaining that Hitler was of course a far leftist, a Socialist, a National Socialist, that he believed in total government and therefore that he and the Communists were natural allies, an affinity that found expression in the Hitler-Stalin Non-Aggression Pact.

The immensely curious and fascinating thing about the confrontation was that these seniors could not understand what I was saying, not even enough to disagree. They never did figure out whether I was a good guy or not. They responded not to the ideas I was voicing but to the names I spoke. Whenever I mentioned Hitler, they booed. When I mentioned FDR, they applauded.

I realized that the names were buttons. They had been trained, not educated, to respond when those buttons were pushed. They responded not to the ideas I was voicing but to the names I spoke. Whenever I mentioned Hitler, they booed. When I mentioned FDR, they applauded. I realized that the names were buttons. They had been trained, not educated, to respond when those buttons were pushed."

And in 'All Our Children Learning' the author states his views, probably respectable because he's a professor, on the goals of education: "The purpose of education and the schools is to change the thoughts, feelings and actions of students." (P. 160)

All these excerpts are taken from Charlotte Thomson Iserbyt's 'the Deliberate Dumbing Down of America' .

The result of education where no longer knowledge is taught but ideologies and political correctness (schoolbooks are flubbing facts; texts filled with errors and political correctness), is that people turn into mandated sheeples and leap on any chance not to have to be one, that is to have someone to blame and criticize especially if it's politically correct for once and even the President hates Saddam and muslim extremists. So one finds a lot of message boards where Americans voice their opinions as such: "Let's get this over with, bomb Iraq back to the stone age, and the Saudis with them, those *%*" raghead hijackers."

This is exactly the mentality required for the gunner to shoot people coming running from a mosque in this AC-130 infrared targeting video from Afghanistan. There's no excuse for not asking questions. Who am I fighting this war for and why? Do those people really have to die so I can have cheap gasoline and watch some sanitized war videos on CNN?

The German people were for generations blamed for what they let Hitler do. There was no excuse, they should have spoken out and some have. But will you? Because if you don't inform yourself and then act and stand up to this oppression then surely you will be blamed for not having done anything. Nazi history will be repeated this time in the USA first, and then the same NWO paradigm will be imposed on us opposite the big pond next (it has already started in Great Britain and Germany), if you don't stand up to it and put and end to it. Remember, we are many, they are few.

Video of aussie interviewer asking people on the street questions such as: "What countries are in the Axis of Evil": "I know Germany is one of them. I'm not sure about the others." Or "Where was the Berlin Wall?" Man on the street: "Believe me I know the answer to that question but I'm thinking..........is it Israel?"

Censorship starts out with little things always in order to see how the public reacts. Little things like John Lennon's 'Imagine' and now the banned list includes a whole range of songs: www.geocities.com/are_americans_stupid/banned_songs.html.

This cartoon clip brilliantly illustrates the world view created by the mass media, where public enemies remain in the public consciousness only as long as it's needed to start a war. Check the video above where a pedestrian doesn't remember Bin Laden by name, only that there was something about a guy with a diaper-head. Gosh!

Two years ago a project set up by the men who now surround George W Bush said what America needed was "a new Pearl Harbor". Its published aims have, alarmingly, come true by John Pilger



"The threat posed by US terrorism to the security of nations and individuals was outlined in prophetic detail in a document written more than two years ago and disclosed only recently. What was needed for America to dominate much of humanity and the world's resources, it said, was "some catastrophic and catalysing event - like a new Pearl Harbor". The attacks of 11 September 2001 provided the "new Pearl Harbor", described as "the opportunity of ages". The extremists who have since exploited 11 September come from the era of Ronald Reagan, when far-right groups and "think-tanks" were established to avenge the American "defeat" in Vietnam. In the 1990s, there was an added agenda: to justify the denial of a "peace dividend" following the cold war. The Project for the New American Century was formed, along with the American Enterprise Institute, the Hudson Institute and others that have since merged the ambitions of the Reagan administration with those of the current Bush regime..."


"On the morning of 12 September 2001, without any evidence of who the hijackers were, Rumsfeld demanded that the US attack Iraq. According to Woodward, Rumsfeld told a cabinet meeting that Iraq should be "a principal target of the first round in the war against terrorism". Iraq was temporarily spared only because Colin Powell, the secretary of state, persuaded Bush that "public opinion has to be prepared before a move against Iraq is possible". Afghanistan was chosen as the softer option. If Jonathan Steele's estimate in the Guardian is correct, some 20,000 people in Afghanistan paid the price of this debate with their lives..."

"In the Los Angeles Times, the military analyst William Arkin describes a secret army set up by Donald Rumsfeld, similar to those run by Richard Nixon and Henry Kissinger and which Congress outlawed. This "super-intelligence support activity" will bring together the "CIA and military covert action, information warfare, and deception". According to a classified document prepared for Rumsfeld, the new organisation, known by its Orwellian moniker as the Proactive Pre-emptive Operations Group, or P2OG, will provoke terrorist attacks which would then require "counter-attack" by the United States on countries "harbouring the terrorists"."
