War

How Lincoln turned war into a virtue.
"This Lincolnian rhetoric has been the ideological cornerstone of all American wars ever since the "Civil War." It is usually used to disguise from the public the fact that war is always and everywhere a racket, as General Smedley Butler proclaimed in his famous book, War is a Racket. In reality, war is almost always waged over some hidden economic reasons for the benefit of the politically-connected class. As Rothbard pointed out, in the old days, "interventionists were more correctly considered propagandists for despotism, mass murder, and perpetual war, if not spokesmen for special interest groups, or agents of ‘the merchants of death.’ Scarcely a high ground." "
Not today.

Claim that a French secret agent killed Qaddafi to keep him from exposing his deals with then French President Sarkozy. This is easy to claim now.  Qaddafi also had sweet deals with Tony Blair.

The US military secretly sprayed the people on St. Louis and Corpus Christi with radioactive material.  This is the military that people love so much and the government they believe protects them.
