Most Americans don't realize what is happening to us. All we can do is to spread the word as best we can. I think the realization of what really happened on 9/11 will awaken the nation like a smack in the face. Currently everyone still thinks it was done by radical Islamists. But when you look at the WTC towers falling, you can see the explosive demolition taking place. This was not done by fire - fire does not do that to steel!
Professional architects and engineers agree after seeing the buildings collapse. This means only one thing; the whole operation was planned in this country. And the fact that the government continues to resist any meaningful investigation of the worst event in our time, shows they were involved.
The propaganda in our media is strong and highly controlled by a few corporations who own it all. But the propaganda the military gives our fighting troops is even stronger; that's the nature of war and the military command structure.
Greed corrupts when the law is not enforced. Congress and the Courts are the enforcers of the Constitution, but they have been corrupted by the money system as so clearly shown in Aaron Russo's movie.
I am not sure about your question on South America. But the past decade or so has seen the rise of people power (democracy) there in several countries. They have had enough of capitalist lies and decided to elect people from their own ranks (the poor). That's why you don't hear much about it in our "controlled corporate media". The only way to educate yourself about South America is to read and listen to alternate independent media sources like
Znet Communications.
Our problem is getting people's serious attention to 9/11, the Federal Reserve private banking system, and all the other lies of our government. Without media help, getting the word out is the hard part. Some activists have been handing out videos in the street. We just need to wake the American people up as fast as we can.
Once the people are awake, the best way for us to restore our Constitutional Laws and rights is with democracy. We all need to vote for the
the National Initiative for Democracy. Once we establish democracy as an American principle in the Constitution, they cannot take it away from us again. With the National Initiative, we can literally fix all our political problems.
