On Vigilant Shield

Lest anyone underestimate the propensity of the state to employ such a wicked practice, recall the 1960s "Operation Northwoods" proposal offered by the Joint Chiefs of Staff to fake a basis for war with Cuba. Such statist thinking ought to energize any inquiry into the events of 9/11.

That Alabama should be considered a possible target for such a scheme may be a tribute to the effectiveness of the Mises Institute and LewRockwell.com!

It is a test of our epistemological foundations to be living in a world in which satire, fantasy, and reality, become indistinguishable from one another. I await the day when the movie, "Wag the Dog," starts being shelved in video stores under "Documentaries."
