Hey everyone, I am from another forum that CopperGoat was on. And I am here to complete the quotes of the Western Hegemony. If Kirupa bans me just because I did another “copy and paste” thing this forum can go to ruins, because Kirupa won’t let anyone post anything important. Oh and I forgot to tell you, when CopperGoat made the statement about Albert Einstein, it was only a joke. Don’t take it seriously. Albert Einstein was a Communist, but when he said that who would want to argue with him was just a joke, you people seem to take things too seriously. It was only a joke. Anyways here it is…
- “It would not have been possible for a political party to be
more committed to a national home for the Jews in Palestine than was
Labour.” - Harold Wilson, former British Labour Party Prime Minister,
1981 - “One hundred nations in the UN have not agreed with us on just
about everything that’s come before them, where we’re involved, and it
didn’t upset my breakfast at all.” - Ronald Reagan, former U.S.
President, basking in the triumph that was the U.S. invasion of
Grenada, 1983 - Q. “Mr. President, have you approved of covert activity to
destablise the present government of Nicaragua?” A. “Well, no, we’re
supporting them, the - oh, wait a minute, wait a minute, I’m sorry, I
was thinking of El Salvador, because of the previous, when you said
Nicaragua. Here again, this is something upon which the
national security interests, I just - I will not comment.” - Ronald
Reagan, former U.S. President, Washington press conference, February
13th, 1983, as quoted by John Pilger in ‘Heroes’ - “After seeing ‘RAMBO’ last night, I know what to do the next time
this happens.” - Ronald Reagan, former U.S. President, as reported by
Daily Express, July 2nd, 1985 - “Aerosol DU (Depleted Uranium) exposures to soldiers on the
battlefield could be significant with potential radiological and
toxicological effects. […] Under combat conditions, the most exposed
individuals are probably ground troops that re-enter a battlefield
following the exchange of armour-piercing munitions. […] We are
simply highlighting the potential for levels of DU exposure to military
personnel during combat that would be unacceptable during peacetime
operations. […DU is…]… a low level alpha radiation emitter which
is linked to cancer when exposures are internal, [and] chemical
toxicity causing kidney damage. […] Short term effects of high doses
can result in death, while long term effects of low doses have been
linked to cancer. […] Our conclusion regarding the health
and environmental acceptability of DU penetrators assume both
controlled use and the presence of excellent health physics management
practices. Combat conditions will lead to the uncontrolled release of
DU. […] The conditions of the battlefield, and the long term health
risks to natives and combat veterans may become issues in the
acceptability of the continued use of DU kinetic penetrators for
military applications.” - Excerpts from the July 1990 Science and
Applications International Corporation report: ’ Kinetic Energy
Penetrator Environment and Health Considerations’, as included in
Appenix D - U.S. Army Armaments, Munitions and Chemical Command report:
‘Kinetic Energy Penetrator Long Term Strategy Study, July 1990’ These
documents state clearly and equivocally that the U.S. army was well
aware of the radioactive and toxic dangers of Depleted Uranium
ammunition long before the first shots of the war were fired. - “We do not have any defense treaties with Kuwait, and there are
no special defense or security commitments to Kuwait.” - Margaret
Tutweiller, U.S. State Department spokeswoman, 24th July 1990, nine
days before Iraq’s invasion of Kuwait References
