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…

1. “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
2. “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
3. 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’
4. “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
5. “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.
6. “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
