The Violent Racism That is the
American Way Continues Unchecked
Peace prize winning
black president just window dressing.

The
illegal Guantanamo operation is still going full steam, the
wars are continuing, and racism is still a rampant
institutionalized and an integral part of American policy
and the American way of life.
I have been trying to
bite my tongue about this for a long time and I just can not
anymore. I kept hoping and hoping that the change that Mr.
Obama promised from the very beginning was something that
was tangible and concrete and day in and day out I have
waited for something real to change.
For me racism is
something that has affected my life since the day I was born
and even now after all of these years living here in Russia
I am still touched by American racism, and believe me it is
disgusting. I know for a fact that had I been a white
American and not a Native American I would never have had my
passport revoked for choosing to live here and for
protesting the previous regime of George Bush.
George
Bush and his administration of war criminals continue to be
protected by the Obama Administration and it is clear that
they will continue to go free and Obama will continue to
protect them.
So what is the reality of the Obama
Presidency? To understand it one must understand the
situation in the US and in particular the social dilemmas
and in reality the danger of a complete social meltdown that
exists because of the racism that is an institutionalized
part of US life.
My assessment of the situation in
the US and this was going back to the Reagan years was that
the US was headed for a complete and total social breakdown
and even a revolution from the minorities in the US. The
Bush years exacerbated racial relations to the point that
complete breakdown was just a matter of time, and then lo
and behold, Mr. Black President with a Muslim sounding name
comes along and bamboozles the world into thinking that an
age of real change has come. I am afraid my dear readers it
has not come and it will not come from the US. The change
that is necessary in the US can and will only come from the
bottom up, by that I mean by the oppressed masses who are
beaten down by Machiavellian laws and the iron hand of the
police state, if they were ever to organize and unite and
finally to stand up and say enough is enough. You can not do
that though, anyone who truly tries to affect real change in
the US is either marginalized like I was, or worse, they are
outright disposed of, either openly or discreetly.
This week saw the epitome of what is the non-change that is
in reality the Obama “Change”. The US refused to sign and or
support three important resolutions and/or positions, The
first involved the international war crimes tribunals and
the prosecution of war criminals which the US refused to
support and in doing so made it impossible for US
individuals to be gone after for war crimes. Of course this
includes all of the members of the Bush regime. The US also
refused to support
a
resolution against racism put forth by Russia that condemns
the glorification of Nazism, not surprising
since up to 400,000 Nazis found refuge in the US after WWII,
going hand in hand with the US’s refusal to sign the UN
convention against racism I would say this makes the US the
most racist and Nazi supporting country in the world. Shame
on the US and shame on Obama.
So, as we can see, and it is evident everywhere there is no "Change", "Change" was just a clever marketing gimmick used by the people who installed Obama in the office. The worse part of the whole thing is that the people honestly wanted change, the people in this case were right in wanting justice and peace and equality and an end to war criminals running the show. It is a shame for the very idea of Democracy where the rights of the individual can outweigh the rights of the group and that very respect for the individual we must be the basis for any just world is being outright trampled on. In the case even the rights of the group no longer matter.
The US is no longer a Democratic country, it is a corporate fascist police state, and the only change Obama has brought has been window dressing.
