The Mighty Wurlitzer

Bin's latest release.

----In the 1950s Frank Wisner proudly referred to the CIA's worldwide propaganda machine as "the mighty Wurlitzer."

BIN FAKED plays a little something for America's "left" and "right" :

"…despite America being the greatest economic power and possessing the most powerful and up-to-date military arsenal as well; and despite it spending on this war and its army more than the entire world spends on its armies; and despite it being the being the major state influencing the policies of the world, as if it has a monopoly on the unjust right of veto; despite all of this, 19 young men were able - by the grace of Allah, the Most High - to change the direction of its compass."

"…campaign being waged against us for a long time now by your politicians and many of your writers by way of your media, especially Hollywood, for the purpose of misrepresenting Islam and its adherents to drive you away from the true religion."

"…the vast majority. of you (Americans) want it (the war) stopped. Thus, you elected the Democratic Party for this purpose, but the Democrats haven’t made a move worth mentioning. On the contrary, they continue to agree to the spending of tens of billions to continue the killing and war there, which has led to the vast majority of you being afflicted with disappointment."

"…your information media, during the first years of the war, lost its credibility and manifested itself as a tool of the colonialist empires."

"…when Kennedy took over the presidency and deviated from the general line of policy drawn up for the White House and wanted to stop this unjust war, that angered the owners of the major corporations who were benefiting from its continuation."

"…backtracking of Bush on his insistence on not giving the United Nations expanded ­ jurisdiction in Iraq is an implicit admission of his loss and defeat there."

"… Bush speeches … echoing of the words of neoconservatives like Cheney, Rumsfeld and Richard Pearle, the latter having said previously that the Americans have no choice in front of them other than to continue the war."

"…the manufacturing of public opinion is Noam Chomsky, who spoke sober words of advice prior to the war, but the leader of Texas doesn’t like those who give advice."

"The capitalist system seeks to turn the entire world into a fiefdom of the major corporations under the label of "globalization" in order to protect democracy."

"…because as soon as the warmongering owners of the major corporations realize that you have lost confidence in your democratic system and begun to search for an alternative, and that this alternative is Islam."

On US troops in Iraq : "It is severer than what the slaves used to suffer at your hands centuries ago, and it is as if some of them have gone from one slavery to another slavery more severe and harmful, even if it be in the fancy dress of the Defense Department’s financial enticements."

---- What a crock'o'shit, more jingle than jihad - memes, mantras, sound bytes, and rhetoric, drawn directly from the sewers of American politics.

It wouldn't surprise if ya told me the above release was written in collaboration with Pearle and Chomsky, consulting with a mujahideen "asset" from the "does this sound real?" section.
