The Citadel Of Broken Dreams
Jim Kirwan

Humanity has chosen to build its Citadel of Dreams upon the backs of those less fortunate. The weight of this impossible fantasy has turned the bulk of humanity into petrified stone, as symbolized above. The only thing left for us, is to listen to the dragon-fire of private conscience, so that we can rise again and throw off this tyrannical prison that has disguised itself as a dream of power and control.
 
This is what the 'change' was supposed to have been about in the last selection process-but because we failed to see that there were no real choices presented-all that we now have to work with is a new puppet in the Oval Office that is simply a continuation of the Cheney-Bush wars and crimes-unending.
 
The whole world knows that Cheney-Bush was completely illegal and totally destroyed every facet of this Republic: The obvious way to begin to change this situation would have to be by changing everything they put in place. Obama has only been in office for a month, and he began by making speeches about what he planned to alter: Speeches that have as yet changed nothing.
 
What was done with the United States in the last eight years went well beyond Treason, and borders on national insanity propped up by paranoia, that serves only the very deep interests of the corporate elites, the Banksters, and the gangsters of the New World Order and the Illuminati. To undo any of this Nightmare; a true leader would simply begin by reversing the major component parts that were put in place to destroy the economy, the military, the entire legal system, the congress and the courts. Obama's words struck all the right cords, but they carried no action to back up his words.
 
He has made no move to close Guantanamo, or to remove the secrecy from the returning dead coming back to the US for burial. Instead of recognizing the illegitimacy of all the creations of the Department of Justice that were designed to add torture and denial of basic human rights to all US prisoners: He is stalling all movement on that front until he can legitimize these obvious illegalities, in order to continue the policies that Cheney-Bush created. In the wars he is paying lip-service to ending the illegal occupation of Iraq, only to re-activate the latest military surge in Afghanistan. There will be no change in the number of US troops required to carry-out the continuing illegal and unilateral foreign policy in Middle East.
 
Instead of reining in Israel's settlements and condemning their genocide against the Palestinians, Barack is siding with Israel, approving all their so-called Rights-to-Self-defense, while simultaneously disallowing the same rights to the Palestinians. Obama continues to say that we should not permit terrorists to sit at the table with Israel-when it is Israel and the US that have been the primary advocates of terror throughout this sixty years of genocide and torture, not to mention war-crimes throughout the Middle-East.
 
Here at home Obama is faring no better when it comes to "fixing" either the economy or the lawless state of the US Department of Justice. "The current Attorney General Eric Holder called yesterday for a national dialogue on race. In a speech marking Black History Month, Holder called the US a "nation of cowards" for not discussing the history of US racism more openly. Holder is the nation's first African American attorney general."
If Holder was sincere then why has he personally shown such cowardice himself in cleaning up the Department of Justice and its polices on racial mistreatment by his own and the FBI's treatment of blacks and other people of color, whenever they are suspected by the Department of Homeland Security for any of their many suspicions that are obviously racially motivated? The hundreds of murders committed by uniformed police, by Homeland Security personnel, and by other agents in uniform do not seem to concern the Attorney General one iota-yet Eric Holder, our first black Attorney General is "concerned" about race in America! (1)
 
In addition there have been woeful miscarriages of Justice by the Security Exchange Commission (SEC) that led directly to two massive frauds that were known about and ignored for many years: These frauds involve the "special treatment: of Madoff and Stanford both major criminals, each guilty of massive frauds: and both of these white men are still technically free, rather than rotting away in somewhere like Attica, while they each await their respective court dates?
 
The US Department of Justice needs to scrape off ALL the garbage that Cheney-Bush added to the DOJ, during the last eight years and return to one standard of settled law and order for everyone in this nation-regardless of color or class. In this process those that committed these crimes against the welfare of people both here and around the world, need to be identified and prosecuted for what they so arrogantly did throughout the last eight years of tyranny unending. It would appear that Eric Holder is nothing but a black version of all his recent predecessor's that supposedly served as Attorney's General of the United States, under our own dictator.
 
While Obama is "thinking and speaking" about our problems he needs to begin to enact some of what he says by doing something about our problems, instead of just intensifying the Cheney-Bush legacy through his blind continuance of their policies that contributed so heavily to the utter destruction of this nation and its people.

Finally there is this cynical perversion of those charged with investigating: "The far-reaching -- and potentially dangerous -- provision that no one knows about.
 
You've heard a lot about the astonishing spending in the $787 billion economic stimulus bill, signed into law this week by President Barack Obama. But you probably haven't heard about a provision in the bill that threatens to politicize the way allegations of fraud and corruption are investigated - or not investigated - throughout the federal government.
 
The provision, which attracted virtually no attention in the debate over the 1,073-page stimulus bill, creates something called the Recovery Accountability and Transparency Board - the RAT Board, as it's known by the few insiders who are aware of it. The board would oversee the in-house watchdogs, known as inspectors general, whose job is to independently investigate allegations of wrongdoing at various federal agencies, without fear of interference by political appointees or the White House.
 
In the name of accountability and transparency, Congress has given the RAT Board the authority to ask "that an inspector general conduct or refrain from conducting an audit or investigation." If the inspector general doesn't want to follow the wishes of the RAT Board, he'll have to write a report explaining his decision to the board, as well as to the head of his agency (from whom he is supposedly independent) and to Congress. In the end, a determined inspector general can probably get his way, but only after jumping through bureaucratic hoops that will inevitably make him hesitate to go forward.
 
When Iowa Republican Sen. Charles Grassley, a longtime champion of inspectors general, read the words "conduct or refrain from conducting," alarm bells went off. The language means that the board - whose chairman will be appointed by the president - can reach deep inside a federal agency and tell an inspector general to lay off some particularly sensitive subject. Or, conversely, it can tell the inspector general to go after a tempting political target." (4)
 
If Obama is anything other than just another version of Cheney-Bush then he needs to begin to wipe-out some of the massive illegalities that came with his ascension to the office. He must close Gitmo within thirty days and immediately cancel the national security sanction against allowing the public to witness the return of the dead from the wars. He must also clarify America's position with regard to the criminal Zionist state of Israel and cut off all funding until the settlements are shut down and their position on Palestine goes back to something resembling humanity. As for the rest of it he must proceed not with more promises but with concrete and very direct actions that will leave no doubt about what he supposedly stands for: If he fails to do this then we need to begin impeachment proceedings against him and all of his so-called cabinet immediately.
 
Anyone can give speeches, but to lift the petrified stone of this society, back to an upright position is a huge task, and to accomplish this we need someone that is capable of actually leading a dying nation back to a viable chance at real life. Obama & Company know nothing of work or personal responsibility, which is why he was chosen by the owners to finish killing off the economy and ending whatever chance we might still have for existence. There is no more "time left" for giving second chances to second-rate politicians or criminals: we must clean up the past if there is to be a future that anyone will be able to survive in. Obama could make history by dumping the trickle-down theory and instituting the trickle-up theory of giving money directly to those most in need and charging the Banksters, Wall Street, the FED and their lobbyists, for their crimes against us all: This would indeed be a real CHANGE!
