Here's something about words and war:

Selling War on Syria

August 28th, 2013
by Stephen Lendman

Waging war requires manufacturing consent. Public opinion's manipulated to do so. Big Lies substitute for full and accurate reporting.

SNIP...

Nation magazine cheerleads Obama's administration. It's done so throughout his tenure. It's done it shamelessly. Editor Katrina vanden Heuvel's an establishment figure.

Her maternal grandfather, Jules Stein, founded entertainment conglomerate MCA. Her father, William, was executive assistant to William Donovan. He was involved in CIA's creation.

He was a Farfield Foundation board member. During the Cold War, it was a CIA front group.

Vanden Heuvel supports humanitarian interventions. She does so for "security" and "stability." She's a regular on scoundrel TV. She's a Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) member.

Life's too short as it is. How anyone can devote any of their time to shortening life for others is criminal in the extreme.
