Lysander Spooner Quote: The Shocking Truth About Wars and Governments
“The greatest of all crimes are the wars that are carried on by governments, to plunder, enslave, and destroy mankind.”

“Believers think ideology is dying or already dead and that Gorbachev has abandoned the class struggle and taken the ‘capitalist road’. They do not realise that ‘perestroika’ is an expression of ideological strategy and a practical means of reviving ideology. It is not the abandonment of class struggle but a finesse to secure the defeat of the capitalist democracies by the use of capitalist weapons. The class struggle will yet have its bloody feasts. The Western elite believe they are helping the cause of democracy. In fact they are financing their own demise and digging their own graves. The tragedy is that they will probably not see it until it is too late.”
Anatoliy Golitsyn
“The problem isn’t a lack of money food water or land. The problem is that you’ve given control of these things to a group of greedy psychopaths who care more about maintaining their own power than helping mankind”
Bill Hicks
“The organizing principle of any society is for war. The basic authority of the modern state over its people resides in its war powers. Today it’s oil, tomorrow, water. It’s what we like to call the GOD business: Guns, Oil, and Drugs. But there is a problem. Our way of life, its over. It’s unsustainable and in rapid decline. That’s why we implement demand destruction. We continue to make money as the world burns. But for this to work the people have to remain ignorant of the problem until it’s too late. That’s why we have triggers in place: 9/11, 7/7, WMDs. A population in a permanent state of fear does not ask questions. Our desire for war becomes *its* desire for war. A willing sacrifice. You see, fear is justification, fear is control, fear is money. You’re a brilliant soldier and I could still use someone like you.”
Gerry Langdon
“Practically the whole human race is hypnotized because it thinks what somebody else told it to think.”
Ernest Holmes
“It is well enough that people of the nation do not understand our banking and monetary system, for if they did, I believe there would be a revolution before tomorrow morning.”
Henry Ford
“The person must be blind, indeed, who can not see, that here on earth a great project, a great plan, is executed, may work on the realization of which we participate as faithful servants.”
Winston Churchill
“Give the people a toy to keep them busy long enough, give them ‘political parties’! Then they will waste all their energy and wit on meaningless occupation with individuals and other trivialities. So they won’t bother us anymore, and we can run our business at will. But to keep the toy from getting boring eventually and the population’s discontent from boiling over, a ritual game with a cathartic function as a pressure valve must be inserted at regular intervals. We call it “parliamentary elections,” which sounds important. Then there is peace for the next four years, especially since everyone believes they decided something themselves. The media? They play our game all by themselves—without realizing it. Occasionally we give them a morsel when we want to functionally neutralize a somewhat more alert, and thus unwelcome, person or group. Then they are satisfied, and so is the population; after all, they have something to gossip about. By splitting the voters through the political party system, we can get them to expend their energy fighting for battles over issues of no importance.”
Montagu Norman
“War: a massacre of people who don’t know each other for the profit of people who know each other but don’t massacre each other.”
Ambroise Paul Toussaint Jules Valéry
