How Many Military/Civilian Coups Have Been Initiated in the USA? 
  None….. or Several?
  What do you think?
 
For some time now,   many of my faithful readers have asked me why are we Americans living in a time of constant fear?
  My answer is that we Americans,  especially ELEVEN MILLION MILITARY VETERANS have not been aware how we,  citizen-soldiers,  were co-opted into wars that civilian leaders, --Presidents,  Legislators, and our military/industrial/banking cabal has fostered in the name of "Democracy" "National Security", etc.

Witness the present financial imbroglio created by ‘chicken hawks’  like the  Tea Party sycophants- Ted Cruz,  Rand Paul,  John Boehner  who did not serve,   neither did Senator Reid, ‘boxer  in a Nevada whorehouse’, and his toady Nancy 'Baltimore Mafiosa' Pelosi.
There are far more serious American coups that happened recently.
  The 9/11 American attack on it’s own people orchestrated by Cheney-Bush-Rumsfeld and Marvin,  Jeb Bush and the neocons was a clear example of tyranny overtaking  the natural progression of American civil society.    But ‘retribution’ will be in store for them. 

  However,   the American Coup phenomena extends to the assassination of JFK,  the invocation of LBJ and his miscreant behavior by invoking the False Lie of The Tolkin Gulf Resolution.
Of course as most of you know,  the Gulf Of Tolkin led to the deaths of millions of Vietnamese,  the death of fifty-five thousand brave American soldiers and the destruction of hundreds of thousands of innocent Vietnam era veterans’ and their families.    However,  my point is not to dwell unnecessarily on the past that we know all too well,
  My initial purpose of this blog to extol the virtues of a great military Marine Corps General Smedley Darlington Butler.
  Who is he?
Until recently I did not know about him until I saw the moving documentary called "Loose Change 9/11".
 Sidebar: See the real atrocities of 9/11 and the Bush family's involvement from Marvin Bush,   Bush Jr and  JEB.    Don’t forget the “Dirty Clintons” and “CIA Obama”. 

Now back to our military hero,   who surprisingly refused to lead a military  coup against FDR in 1934.    This military coup was specifically inspired by Prescott Bush [grandfather of Bush Jr] ,  the Duponts;  Firestone;  GE;  Brown Harriman Brothers;  Warburg  Banking --- and the rest of the slothful plutocrats of so-called American industry.

Why did a decorated Marine General Butler refuse to mobilize over 500,000 out-of-work WWI Veterans against FDR,  even though General Butler was a staunch Republican?
  Because this honorable military hero who had been awarded the Congressional Medal Of Honor—not ONCE BUT TWICE—believed that ‘preserving a free country and democracy was both his profession and his ‘hobby’.    He did not want to precipitate our country into a Civil War as Lincoln had done for the railroad interests.
  Instead,   he wrote a book that should be read by all American war veterans and Americans who want change in our  present dysfunctional,   fearful society.
  The book is called: War Is A Racket. ,    As one reader advised,  order five copies,   keep one,  give the rest to others to teach them the truth.

What I want to quote and especially  address this passage from Gen Butler’s book-- to my eleven million fellow military veterans of all the recent wars—Korea, Vietnam, Panama, Grenada, Iraq,  Afghanistan,  Yemen,  Somalia,  Sudan and Central/Latin America, et. Al:
 
"I,  Major General Butler,  helped make Mexico and especially Tampico safe for AMERICAN OIL INTERESTS IN 1914."
"I helped make Haiti and Cuba a decent place for the National City Bank boys to collect revenues in."
  "I helped in the raping of HALF A DOZEN South AMERICAN REPUBLICS FOR THE BENEFIT OF WALL STREET."
  "I helped PURIFY NICARAGUA for the INTERNATIONAL BANKING HOUSE OF BROWN/HARRIMAN BROTHERS in 1909-12."
"I brought LIGHT TO THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC FOR THE AMERICAN SUGAR INTERESTS in 1916."
"I HELPED MAKE HONDURAS 'RIGHT' for the AMERICAN FRUIT COMPANY in 1903.
  "In China in 1927,  I helped see to it that STANDARD OIL went its way UNMOLESTED [for the ROCKAFELLER FAMILY].
"Looking back on it [wars],   I felt I might have given AL CAPONE A FEW HINTS.
  "The best AL CAPONE could do was to OPERATE HIS CORRUPT RACKETS in THREE CITY DISTRICTS.  We Marines operated on three continents!"

There is not much that I can add to what this great military hero who was eventually denigrated and humiliated by cowardly political operatives like the ones we have now on both sides of the aisle.    I now must restate what I have said for three decades while serving my country for free.   It is time that our present military establishment redirect their collective efforts to establishing their respective priorities regarding national security.   Stop these cowardly PRESIDENTS and LEGISLATORS WHO REFUSED TO SERVE dictate what our course of actions should be.

As for we who have served—It is time to let our ‘so-called civilian leaders’ understand how DISGUSTED and FRUSTRATED we are with our  CIVILIAN COUPS that took away our RIGHTS,  FREEDOMS,  AND OUR ability to  MAKE A DECENT LIVING without being taxed and regulated to death.
 
Lose the fear mentality!!  Educate yourself!  and your children (yes,  schools do suck BUT we have the Information Age Tools to help us understand history).    Let's work together and refuse to give in to these Puppet Politicians who are controlled by the greedy wealthy elite who want to tax US if we don't buy their corrupted medical insurance….really,  think of what our fore fathers did when they were taxed unfairly and without representation.

  2. I agree completely.

    This is why I'm so critical of the American military. They take it for granted that they're "defending America" when they're doing all this fighting in other peoples' countries. The self-delusion is astounding.

    As bad as Butler's wars were the worst thing America ever did was joining Britain in the Great War. Without American involvement Germany would have won against France and Britain. Everyone would have gone back to their borders and everything would have been fine - with a generation of dead and wounded more aware than ever of the futility of war.

    But Noooooooo......................................................

    America comes in and ruins everything. The Germans are crushed in such a way that any German government, not just the Nazis, are going to want back the lands taken from them. The victorious allies then carve up the Ottoman empire and the Austrian empire into stupid little countries which are ungovernable and cause mischief for the next two hundred years! Not to mention the weakening of Germany leads directly to the rise of Stalin, who then defeats Germany and grabs half of Europe. Not to mention the Poles, who because of the weakening of Germany adopt a military junta which gobbles up their neighbors, including various Germans, which then strike back.....

    What the Americans did by joining the fight in a last ditch, eleventh hour push to save Britain from defeat on the Continent ruined the next hundred years.

    America is the evil empire.
