I fundamentally disagree with points #10 and #12. Israel or the Israel(firster) lobby does control the United States. Your derogatory use of the term 'conspiracy' / 'conspiracy circles' plays into the hands of those you claim to fight. There is no objective contrast between

1. real-world 'conspiracy' making daily headlines in the MSM by means of different euphemisms (while at the same time the MSM studiously avoids the term 'conspiracy' despite the fact that they very frequently report on / make claims of conspiracy in the technical sense of the word) and

2. analysis of malfeasance, which the corporate media labels 'conspiracy' whenever independent critics dare to expose evidence or suggestions of malfeasance by key players in the establishment. There have been many articulate essays on the specious misuses of the term 'conspiracy /[theory], as searchable for instance in the archives of globalresearch.ca, which you cannot be unaware of, and yet you choose to rehash this cognitive poison.

Your vague claim that the plutocrats are ultimately to blame is obfuscation and leftist reductionism (I consider myself neither a leftist, nor a right-winger). I usually like your posts, but this is the first one (I hope not a trend), which I will not upvote.
