This is a free book, and one of the best ever written. Please take the time to at least look at it.

I am familiar with Major General Smedly D. Butler. I have shared his truths with many. I like the added bonus bumper stickers. Butlers writings cannot be shared enough. Thanks for sharing it. Good Clip!

One of these days I hope every american can see through the MSM BS and know that War is a Racket, 'War on Terror' is a Racket, 'War on Drugs' is a Racket, War on 'Global Warming' is a Racket, etc,. These are all rackets of fascist corperate war pigs.
I would love to see the day that everyone refuses to be cannon fodder, and refuses to murder manufactured enemies, so greedy PTB can convert rivers of blood into gold in their bottomless coffers. And hopefully people will also see through ...

Major General Smedley D. Butler got it right, how ironic that everything that he written also applies to us now.

It was Butler who brought to light the efforts of The Decider's grandfather, Senator Prescott Bush, to literally bring fascism to America, and the financial connection between Bush and Hitler.
