A Terrorist By Any Other Name
Wolfgang Smutz
Dear Subscriber,
The belief in "authority" drastically warps the way most people view
reality. Oddly, people like to think the belief is a civilizing influence,
when the exact opposite is true: the most heinous evils because generally
accepted as legitimate and good when done by a perceived "authority." Most
people are utterly incapable of viewing the world without their
authority-colored glasses dramatically twisting what they see. The belief in
"government," man-made "law,"and "authority" in general, make most people
unable to see the literal truth of what is going on.
For years now the government and the media have been condemning the evils of
"terrorists." Who are they talking about? Well, if you use the government's
definition, a "terrorist" is one who uses violence, or the threat of
violence, to achieve a political end.
As many of you have heard by now, a collection of several vehicles,
apparently including an armed vehicle, filled with heavily armed state and
federal "law enforcement" personnel, was seen yesterday heading towards the
New Hampshire home of Ed and Elaine Brown. As I understand it, those
"authorities" have now laid seige to the place, and cut the phone lines, but
it sounds like there has been no raid and no arrest as of yet.
(Incidentally, I'm just getting this from various internet posts, so don't
expect me to have any special inside info.) In one newspaper article, one of
the "law enforcement" personnel said that they had no intention whatsoever
of having a violent conflict with the Browns. Yeah, sure. I guess they
brought along the armored vehicle to do some fun off-roading in their spare
time.
Can anyone tell me, with a straight face, that the government is NOT using
violence, or the threat of violence, to achieve a political end? Mr. and
Mrs. Brown did not assault anyone, or rob anyone, or defraud anyone. Their
"sin" was to not pay the federal terrorists their "protection" money, which
(as far as I can tell) the Browns had good reason to believe they didn't
even "legally" owe.
But whether a terrorist passes a "law" before committing his violence makes
no difference to whether his actions are righteous or justified.
Unfortunately, it does make a huge difference to whether people PERCEIVE the
actions as justified. If not for the belief in "authority," any moron could
see that the Browns are now surrounded by a gang of terrorists. But when the
terrorism is "legal" (whatever that means), the vast majority of people
suddenly see the VICTIM as the bad guy, and the perpetrators as noble "law
enforcers."
There is one up-side to the current thuggery being used against the Browns:
it is happening in the open. Normally the terrorism perpetrated by American
"authorities" is only implied, which helps people not think of it as
terrorism. EVERY demand by government is backed by the ability and
willingness to use force, including deadly force. Because most people comply
long before such a threat ever becomes blatant, we rarely see the true
nature of the beast. Only when people like the Browns refuse to comply with
the veiled threats dressed up as "requests" do we get to see the NON-veiled
threats, which show the true nature of the American terrorists.
If you want a taste of what lies behind the euphemism of American "law
enforcement," go rent "Waco: Rules of Engagement." These people are
murderers and terrorists. Behind their uniforms and pretended legitimacy,
they are despicable, power-happy, authority- worshiping fascists, who will
not hesitate to injure, torture, or kill their fellow man if the
"government" myth tells them to.
I very much hope that the Browns have a better end result than the Branch
Davidians did. One advantage they have is that a lot more people are paying
attention to what is really going on up there (though it sounds like the
terrorists, who like their sins to be done in secret, have cut their phone
lines).
It was only a few short years ago that I considered myself to be a supporter
of "law enforcement." After a few first-hand experiences (a lot more tame
than what the Browns are going through) showed me who and what these people
really are, I am proud to say that I will forever be an enemy of the state,
as any decent person should be. You cannot be pro-government and
anti-terrorism. The two are one in the same.
Sincerely,
Larken Rose
