Undelivered Guarantees?

" Hello and welcome to freedom watch your daily dose of raw liberty streaming online of foxnews.com. I'm your host judge entered a -- shadow here defending freedom defending your natural rights and defending your right to have a government. That stays within the confines of the constitution. Is the military industrial complex that work again. The government's bankers love when the government goes to war because war is the health of the state. And wars the help of the government's bankers true. So unless the machine of the military industrial complex. The people who fund the war. The people who sell to the government the hardware that the soldiers you lose. Unless that's being used in a legitimate valid. Moral. Constitutional. Lawful war. It is yet another burden on the shoulders of freedom. And it should be a burden on everyone's shoulders. Who believes that the constitution should be enforced. Because the constitution says the government can't fight -- war unless the congress declares one. And this administration. That campaigned against the war in Iraq the promise to bring holding the troops. Is fighting and un declared war in Pakistan. And an un declared war in Afghanistan. Joining me now to talk about all of this is Lew Rockwell chairman of the -- institute in Auburn Alabama low it's a pleasure welcome back to freedom watch."

" so -- be with the youth."

" The -- pay attention to the basic requirements. Of the just war today. Or is it only philosophers and theologians who care about this."

" Well -- Ron Paul. But as we know. The just war theory tells us for the war has to be defensive that it has to be fought and -- way. And within the context of the American constitution it has to be declared. And yet as you've noted we haven't had -- declared war since Harry Truman would into Korea. And the US's -- I don't know twenty or thirty different wars small and big since mister Truman took that -- constitutional and criminal action. And now would you say you mr. Obama has got this this fighting free and declared wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. And and Pakistan. For example there have been hundreds of thousands of people ethnically -- Swat Valley in Pakistan. -- people and driven out of their homes left dead on the road. Parents try to -- their children and their few possessions. That's a terrible thing that the US government is responsible for and then we wonder why people don't like --"

" I'm I'm glad you raised Pakistan because I'm fascinated with this this is a country that is ostensibly our allies. And yet without declaring war without even as far as I know that the consent of the government the lawful government of the territory. Known to the world -- Pakistan. We have sent in special ops and don't wear the military folks who don't wear uniforms. We've -- CIA and other intelligence agents. And most terrifically we've sent in drones. Unmanned. Aircraft that are controlled 10000 miles away from Langley Virginia to kill people on the ground. How can this possibly. Be moral or lawful."

" No and of course -- that wonderful CIA since of humor they call these the predator drones. -- what a predator is in the in the in the animal kingdom. Human beings are not supposed to be acting as predators however and so we've blown up wedding parties wouldn't just the other day they blew up a whole day -- center. -- villages and civilians so -- just collateral damage too bad and no one is to the next people we're gonna kill but this doesn't have an effect. I know Americans may find that strange to believe that. Other -- don't like having their countries -- and they don't like American mercenaries source CIA guys going in and committing murder in their country. This has an effective makes people not like America."

" I would think that this would have the opposite effect from what the government intends that it wants him he could you imagine. If if the government of China. We're flying drones over Texas. And -- the drones that it would say give them the benefit of the doubt outlaws that the government of Texas was looking for. -- government in this country no freedom loving people -- any country would tolerate such a despicable state of affairs."

" No that's true although it is among my have a -- cynical view of these things and I think that. There are people as you pointed out in in it in the introduction. There is vast amounts of money to -- from war. Trillions and trillions of dollars to be made and by the way it's not going to the private from the corporal from the sergeants over there. -- but there are people making. Big bucks out of war. The owners of the mercenary -- the owners of the military industrial complex. They -- benefited -- so when you look at something like the predator drones that you're exactly right obviously are not serving the purpose the government says they're serving. Seems to -- we have the right to say well maybe they're serving another purpose maybe they are intended. To stir -- war to stir up hatred and to have more excuses spend money our money the people's money stolen from us by the IR SE."

" You and I both agree that war is the health of the state it causes people to be afraid. It causes them to willingly pay more taxes it allows the government to do all kinds of things overtly and -- overtly. To take away liberties from individuals which probably and and historically. Is never returned to them so there are a lot of reasons why the government likes war. That transcend. Whatever the government says is the purpose for the military activity."

" Would certainly give them the right New -- so when talk so eloquently about this it gives them in their view the right to take your way or civil liberties. -- take away our congress our constitutional rights to. To bring about all kinds of illegal supplying illegal searches and seizures. And nobody seems to protest but of course some of -- protest that this is not a good thing. And that our freedom does matter to us and we don't like -- taken away in the name of telling people and some far off for a way."

" You know freedom is so precious -- be taken away so easily just think about the lies that have been used to justify a war. FDR calling. December 7 1941. A day that will live in infamy. When we now know. There was a mountain of evidence from which to conclude that he not only knew the Pearl Harbor was about to happen. But cause that to happen Lyndon Johnson running as the peace candidate against Barry Goldwater. In 1964. When we now know. He was secretly planning. To escalate the illegal war in Vietnam and made up the Gulf of Tonkin incident and ordered to do self George Bush. Getting essential war -- Iraq spying on Americans torturing people lying about it lying about whether or not. There were weapons of mass destruction the people who work for us whom we've really chose to lead the freely elected government. Using outright overt rarely detected lies to lead us into war."

" Did you keep waiting -- many here one of and tell the truth. I mean outside of Ron Paul who believe there in Washington to tell the truth -- blanket -- what lies to justify -- you say every kind of horrible. Foreign policy of -- of domestic policy that benefits the government and the contractors who live off the government. But is very much to the detriment of the average American. But there are some -- guys serving in Afghanistan or Iraq or whether it's support taxpayers of the poor parents here. Or whatever Americans the regular people of this country the forgotten man as we might say quoting William Graham Sumner. The forgotten American people who are being alluded to by these people in Washington. And it's an unbelievable operated."
