Marines Turned to Mercenaries
One of the U.S's most decorated soldiers. Two-time Medal of Honor
recipient Major General Smedley Butler:
"I might have given Al Capone a few hints. The best he could do was operate a
racket in three cities. The Marines operated on three continents....`I helped purify Nicaragua for the international banking house of Brown
Brothers in 1909-1912. I helped make Mexico and especially Tampico safe for
American oil interests in 1916. I helped make Haiti and Cuba a decent place for
the National City (Bank) boys to collect revenue in. I helped rape half a dozen
Central American republics for the benefit of Wall Street.... In China, I helped
see to it that Standard Oil went its way unmolested.... I had ... a swell
racket. I was rewarded with honors, medals, and promotions."
- Maj. Gen. Smedley
Darlington Butler, the most honored and decorated soldier in the land,
"I spent 33 years and four months in active military service and during that
period I spent most of my time as a high class muscle man for Big Business, for
Wall Street and the bankers. In short, I was a racketeer, a gangster for
capitalism." "I
brought light to the Dominican Republic for the American sugar interests in
1916. I helped make Honduras right for the American fruit companies in 1903. In
China in 1927 I helped see to it that Standard Oil went on its way unmolested."
- Maj. Gen. Smedley Darlington Butler - From his book, War is a Racket:
Through the rest of his life Butler continued to hammer away on the theme that the American military was
being deployed to collect bankers' debts and secure looting rights in foreign
countries.
It can be shown that in the U.S.
banksters have instigated most, if not all the major wars in the last
100 years since we handed our money supply to a group of criminals who
control the Federal Reserve Bank.
The U.S. has military bases in 130 of the
190 nations in the world. Why?
What should we do to Presidents who take our finest and order them to
commit terrorist acts? What should you do if you are in the
service and are ordered to commit acts of terror in complete violation
of the law and ethics?
Governments depend on keeping soldiers ignorant of what is really
going on. However, as a soldier is it not your duty to know the
enemy? What when your own government is the enemy?
