A Simple Question as We Prepare for the 50th

[Peter Lemkin]

What do we want?

I want the full truth of his murdered death and justice.

Agreed. Now CD asks how we define and accomplish this. Certainly, IMHO, the corrupt state, heir to the Coup cannot and will not help in this regard. It will take the People, largely through individual and group action, books, films, internet and 'the drum' simply creating a 'critical mass' of understanding not only they were lied to [that has already been accomplished]; but the basics of how, by whom and why. The natural sequellae should then be a righteous indignation/outrage/demand over this treason/deception/manipulation - due both to the act itself and the consequences [which to the sophisticated or awakened increasingly] will be seen to include the horrible changes in American personal/family economy, polity, freedoms, liberties, rights, loss of democracy and rule of law, the purchase and control of the four 'estates' of the Nation, War over Peace, the super-spy state, the growing police state, the crypto-fascist state, the rule by the financial and corporate elites. It won't end with a trial or real investigation, IMO..though that would be nice - unless that is done on foreign soil by an international body; but rather by an overthrow of the Coup (i.e. a total change in form, structure and function of the State - and who it serves). This is, obviously, asking a lot - more so if one hopes for it by this November. The ongoing collapse of America however is awakening the slumbering and mind controlled masses - pushing them to face many things they did not want to and were told not to examine about both history v. myth, as well as the very structure of the Country - who it serves (and is constructed to serve), and if that ought not to be changed: from benefiting a small ruling elite to benefiting the great mass of those who live within it. An awakening and a total change of paradigm will open the eyes on JFK [and vice-versa], as well as a host of other assassinations, needless wars, covert operations, dirty deeds, grand thefts, deceptions, et al. It is a HUGE task - but there is simply no other choice, IMO. It is either that or the American Empire, after some very ugly death throws, sinks into history, as have all previous Empires. It is one of those moments in history - a grand tipping point - there is no middle ground anymore for playing ostrich - when the economics, structure, function, legitimacy, and ethics of this polity and its trace of false official history are 'on fire' and about to 'implode'. It will not and can not be cured by clinging to the illusions/mythology/tactics of the past. IMHO
