Are progressives democrats? And since it's a fact that the Democratic party, not just the "corporate democrats" and not just the "democratic party establishment", THE democratic party officially FULLY SUPPORTS U.S. imperialism, are progressives also imperialist warmongers?

Back in September 2000, the neocon/Zionist think tank, Project for New American Century (PNAC), published a 90 page report called "Rebuilding America's Defenses - Strategy, Forces, and Resources for a New Century." PNAC was founded by neocon/Zionists William Kristol and Robert Kagan and included many of the neocons that infested the Bush administration starting in 2001.

Questions for the audience:

Do all politicians of a political party agree to support the official party platform?

Are citizens who vote for political party politicians also supporting the party platform? If not supporting, are they validating it?

The World Socialist Website is reporting something that is kind of important. I say that sarcastically, yes I do.

"Vladimir Putin has ordered Russian industry to be prepared to divert all its efforts into war production."

(This is a picture of skeleton thin children starving in Yemen. You'll have to use your imagination or search the internet, I don't have the stomach for it right now.)

(Note: I've got a little 6 month old grandson visiting for the holiday. When I saw the picture of the starving child in Yemen, I saw his eyes looking at me. Angry? You bet.)

“The people in charge can always justify doing terrible things in the name of the greater good. A slaughter here, a little torture there. It becomes moral to do things that would be immoral if an ordinary individual did ’em.” - Joe Hill, The Fireman

Pyongyang 1953

Considering present day circumstances, how are people affected when they read the below excerpt from the DPRK’s Foreign Minister’s cable to the United Nations Security Council dated 13 January 1951.

Could it be? Are the people in charge of this country that crazy? Would they really risk a nuclear war based on lies?

Heh. You bet your ass they are and would.

Something very significant has happened that is not receiving nearly enough attention in anti-establishment land.
