I Murder 200,000+ People…Every Day…

As a US citizen, I am personally responsible for the worldwide murders of 200,000+ people every day. Commonly labeled as “Excess Deaths” - just as starving people are said to be “Food Deficient”- the truth would have it that these deaths are admittedly avoidable. Pathetic descriptors, coined by oligarchic leadership, do not erase the fact that lives are purposefully being erased for mostly selfish & illicit ends.

My country was supposedly founded on “Christian” principles; principles that would cause a person to die so that others might live; not to live so that others may die. Somehow, these grand ideas have mutated into the creation of a society which seems to see itself as being more honorable or moral than all others. This allows us an illicit luxury: purposeful deafness & blindness to the use of blatantly vile power & control to purchase an illusion of ease & comfort.

Most everyone in the world knows that my country’s so-called “elitist” leaders are simply putting the finishing touches on the largest fiscal rape of humanity, ever (likely $60 quadrillion dollars extracted & counting). Most of my fellow citizens are willing to admit that “something very serious is occurring” yet few seem willing to “face the music” that “the fat lady” (reference to opera’s final act) is singing & that life as we know it is soon to become life as we have handed to the world we have been oppressing.

So, how is it that I murder 200,000+ people…every day? And, where is it all leading?

First, let me reiterate that I am speaking of ‘taking responsibility’, which seems the only way to facilitate genuinely compassionate change. For the past twenty-one years, I have dedicated myself to personal change, from the inside out. It is my desire to give up whatever is required that others may be lifted up (for even one moment) “above the emptiness of their unbearable lives”.

My pathway has been one of looking below the shallow presentations of the mainstream media & the surface words of my religious & political leaders. I went to the world’s holy books & to the public record. In the holy books, I found stories of all sorts of people being sought out by deities, some good & some evil. In the public record, I found unadulterated truth (even with regard to the arrogant lies of our conceited leadership).

Second, let me say (in the combined words of others), “The continuing, horrendous global avoidable mortality (murder) is fundamentally due to violence, deprivation, disease and lying”.

In my 56 years on this planet, my country has chosen to go to war (either overtly or covertly) with the following sovereign nations: Afghanistan, Algeria, Angola, Argentina, Armenia/Azerbaijan, Bahamas, Bahrain, Bangladesh, Barbados, Belize, Bhutan, Biafra, Bolivia, Bosnia, Botswana, Brazil, Brunei, Burma, Burundi, Cambodia, Cameroon, Chad, Chechnya, Chile, China, Columbia, Congo, Costa Rica, Cuba, Croatia, Cyprus, Darfur, Dominican Republic, Egypt, El Salvador, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Falklands, Fiji, Gambia, Gaza, Georgia, Ghana, Greece, Grenada, Guam, Guatemala, Guinea-Bissau, Guyana, Haiti, Herzegovina, Honduras, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Iran, Iraq, Ireland, Irian, Israel, Jordan, Kosovo, Kenya, Korea, Kuwait, Jamaica, Laos, Lebanon, Lesotho, Liberia, Libya, Nepal, Nicaragua, Madagascar, Malawi, Malaysia, Maldives, Malta, Micronesia, Morocco, Mozambique, Namibia, Nigeria, Oman, Philippines, Pakistan, Palestine, Panama, Peru, Portugal, Puerto Rico, Qatar, Russia, Rwanda, Saint Lucia, Saint Vincent & Grenadines, Serbia, Sierra Leone, Singapore, Solomon Islands, Somalia, South Africa, Sri Lanka, Sudan, Swaziland, Syria, Taiwan, Tajikistan, Tanzania, Timor, Trinidad & Tobago, Tonga, Tunisia, Turkey, Uganda, United Arab Emirates, US Virgin Islands, Vanuatu, Vietnam, West Papua, West Sahara, Yemen, Zaire/Congo, Zaire, Zambia, Zimbabwe.

The staggering thought is that this list is likely nowhere near complete…sigh!

My short list of “the horrendous true cost of global avoidable mortality (murder)”, commonly ignored, is: racism & bigotry, poverty, medical communities (avoidable mortality, lack of water, basic health care & preventive medicine), relatively high infant death rate (incl. abortion), euthanasia, public transport related deaths, tobacco, alcohol & illicit drug related deaths, depression, social laxity, obesity, STDs, suicide, mounting “home alone” elderly & child issues, crime-related deaths;

Fossil fuel based deaths (toxic pollutants—carbon monoxide, particulates, sulfur dioxide, heavy metals), malnourishment (57%+ of total world’s population), famine (incl. food sold on commodities markets, producing artificial price inflation), immoral diversion of food for biofuel (“lies, censorship, intimidation, self-censorship, white-washing, anti-science spin”), nuclear industry (production, waste storage, materials theft, industrial pollution and un-reported radioactive contamination events), mainstream media entrenchment culture (oblivious to lying by omission or not caring to know the truth), induced global warming (incl. mass denial), US corporation off-shoring, outsourcing jobs, US as a major world occupier;

Climate change as a military weapon (“deprivation & deprivation-exacerbated disease”), terrorism (&“terror hysteria”), defense (war & profit-making), nuclear terrorism (incl. depleted uranium issue, giving away or allowing theft of our nuclear material), turning our backs on other country’s genocide, psy-ops, 200+ military torture prisons (incl. public willingness to ignore the issue, based on promises to close Guantanamo & “redecorate” Bagram, etc.), labeling of so-called terrorist organizations.

Homeland security, Patriot Acts, Homeland Security laws, oppression or imprisonment of dissident citizens, mandatory immunizations, economic sanctions (as a prelude to war & for population control), high level radiation or chemical tagging of dissidents, spying on the public, fear mongering, use of artificial intelligence-typical software to steal trillions from federal housing authorities, military, and pentagon subversion, radiation experimentation, chemical experimentation, drug wars, drug dealing & money laundering, treating money in foreign countries with radiation (purposefully causing cancer), intentional poisoning of air & water, irresponsible & illegal invasions & subversion, mass exterminations (as National Security Policy), purposeful fiscal wrecking of corporations & countries that oppose US aims;

WALL Street complicity (incl. cover & money laundering for the CIA), 1000+ military installations (incl. 100+ underground, secure bases), unwillingness to be accountable to world criminal courts, immigration persecution, 50%+ of world’s military budget, largest arms dealer in world, demonization of minority races (incl. ethnic, religious & gender bias), nearly 25% of the world’s prison population (excluding military & torture prisons), ignoring nuclear weapons treaties, breaking nearly all (if not all) of Native American treaties, purposeful extermination of Native American & African slaves, treatment of populace of US territories as foster children, rapacious taxation, rape of financial system, use of AIDS & Avian DNA for military-grade weapons, genetically altered crops (incl. cover up of faulty seed crops & related disease, use for population control), creating poverty through fiscal rape of economy, Geopolitical plans for world domination & creation of an “elitist New World Order”, propaganda, illegal occupation, war related disease-spreading, subversion of the Sovereignty of other nations, political assassination…and Peak Oil…

And now for the “bad” news:

This is simply the beginning. The worst is yet to come. My country’s so-called elite say (US National Security Policy & US Intelligence Community assessments) that 2/3+ of US & World populace must die, for the world to sustain itself. It has been stated that one of the new strains of the Avian Flu (US created?) is up to the task.

The good news is that many of the worlds oppressed have been refined through imposed suffering & possess all that is needed to throw off the lies & chains of oppression. Maybe you can teach the rest of us, both how to suffer well & how to rid our world of its evils.

Today, I murdered 200,000+ people. Please forgive me & teach me how to be your servant!
