I had time to get back here. I was not home most of yesterday (Memorial Day).

So, if PCR is not acceptable here then I would appreciate a PM from one of the hosts and I'll delete it.

That said, here is my take on it...

I regret that I am unable to determine accurately who is the person du jourwhose views are unacceptable on DU. I went thru that article and, aside from the issue about the govt. stocking up on ammunition etc. , didn't find much that has not been said, in other ways, possibly, by Hedges, Robt Parry and numerous other progressive writers. To wit:

American wars do not protect our liberty. The Empire is dying. Our wars are not against massed armies, but against women, children etc. Washing created, and continues to create, terrorists by its attacks on Muslims and others around the world. Gaddafi would not roll over for Washington (see: Goldman Sachs debacle, pan-African bank for starters), "We came, we saw, he died", as Hillary says *cackle*.

The neo-con ideology is one of "full spectrum dominance". The US stomps around the world DEMANDING that everyone do what we say or be "bombed back into the stone age".

Local police forces have been militarized. US AND Israeli foreign policy rests on violence. And so on and on. What is PCR saying that is, in the main, so reprehensible?

And here's another question that I'd like to throw out there...I am not a fan of Alex Jones, but if our worthless and supine media are only interested in reporting the pap that is spewed by our Ministry of Truth, just where is one to go to have their voice heard, when he is the only one to give them a venue?
