More Kissinger Stuff...
America's "New War" Directed By Old Profiteers
by Dr. Len Horowitz - LightStream Productions
Dr. Henry Kissinger is heralding war directions once again. On "Black Monday" (September 17, 2001), the day stocks took their biggest single day loss in history, the American news media detailed this eighty-six-year-old foreign policy analyst's prescription for bombing Afghanistan and Iran. Rhetorically admitting such actions would likely prompt terrorist counterattacks, Dr. Kissinger claimed such strikes were urgently needed to stop future terrorist attacks. Given the incongruity of his counsel, many Kissinger critics believe the "elderly statesman" may be losing his mind. Others suggest he should simply refrain from advising Bush administration officials on such matters. Still more believe he should "mind his own business." This, however, is precisely what he is doing since America's "New War" strategy represents, above all, BIG BUSINESS! Officials are now warning that America's "New War" will require unprecedented economic and social sacrifices. Included here, we are told, are imminent losses of life from biological and chemical attacks. This best explains why "Black Monday's" few winning stocks included pharmaceutical giants Merck, Pfizer, and Johnson & Johnson-companies destined to profit greatly by plagued populations.
