Colin Powell is a war criminal in the same mold as Hitler’s foreign minister, Joachim von Ribbentrop. Von Ribbentrop never fired up the ovens. He didn’t machine gun people in trenches that were really mass graves. What he did was to lie, threaten, and violate international agreements to facilitate Hitler’s crimes. That’s why he was found guilty at Nuremberg.
Colin Powell served both Bush’s and Clinton as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, National Security Advisor Secretary of State. He facilitated the genocides of LBJ, Nixon, Clinton and Bush2 and the criminal oil war of Bush1 in defense of the homophobic parasites who own Kuwait.
Colin Powell was assistant chief of staff of the 23rd Infantry Division in Nam where he lied under oath and attempted to discredit the expert testimony of courageous GI whistleblowers like Tom Glen of the 11th Light Infantry Brigade who exposed the My Lai Massacre. Powell said: “In direct refutation of this portrayal is the fact that relations between American soldiers and the Vietnamese people are excellent.”
In reality over a million Vietnamese civilians were slaughtered on the orders of Democrat LBJ and Republican Nixon before their invasion and occupation was unceremoniously defeated, just as the Clinton-Bush-Obama effort will be in the Middle East. Some may forgive LBJ, Humphrey, Powell, The Bushes, Obama, Clinton and Gore for their role in the genocides in Vietnam and Iraq because it’s politically expedient to ignore their murders but the rest of us don’t.
The fact that Powell is once again endorsing Obama means that Powell feels safe that he won’t be indicted as a war criminal as long as Obama continues wars of aggression and that he agrees with Obama’s war policy, which will enlarge and expand these wars causing more deaths and putting the finishing touches on the destruction of our economy and standard of living.
Powell’s endorsement would be coldly rejected by anyone with an ounce of decency, which is why Obama will revel in it.

Just a few days ago, I heard about Colin Powell remorsing over his lies to start a war in Iraq. He seemed to be warning us about BO’s lies about Iran, but now endorses him?!
Don’t Believe the Colin Powell-Obama Lies!
There are no WMDs!
Colin Powell was a leader of the illegal US invasion of Panama, which killed and imprisoned press, installed one of the Fords as President-for-Life, and Murdered the 2,000 man Panamanian Army as they slept, then buried them in a mass grave.
Obama would rather have a Powell endorsement than a Kucinich endorsement.
Yep.
I think the only thing that would make him happier would be if Ronnie Raygun came back from the dead and endorsed him. That would fulfill his every dream.
I still believe he’s gonna switch parties down the road.
Concur with you and this My FDL Diary you put up Bill Perdue.Amongst these American war criminals there is little or simply no shame.
Recommended.
The United States and the Americans who have run WashingtonDC who were either elected or selected has/have a long history of being pro colonial,pro imperial and pro doing violence/death dealing. Barack Obama is a war criminal based on what he does first and then fails to do or say about prior war criiminal(s) who were in WH before Obama got there. Colin Powell is not a stupid human nor a dumb American and surely Powell understands what Barack Obama is allowing to continue,covering up or working hard to put well polished propaganda or just plain Big Lies in place to support what is being done.
Since 2001 there have been in any given year in the U.S.Congress 535 Americans who ostensibly represent all Americans in affairs of domestic,foreign affairs and are the Americans most empowered to go after Americans who have done/do torture and war crimes. Yet these 535 Americans in the U.S.Congress seem largely uninterested,unwilling or not capable of putting up any torture/war crimes pushbacks.
One is left to conclude these 535 Americans in the U.S.Congress will not do anything other than fund,promote and run political cover-ups to make it possible for a G.W.Bush or a Barack H.Obama to be colonialists,imperialists and very out in the open war criminals and death dealers to any and all who get in way of American “interests”.
Likely the only outcome this post WW2 American regime in WashingtonDC need fear is having started a full,all out war with the world’s Muslims or some kind of Russian/Chinese/Indian alliance and being defeated. One can surmise or imagine what then could happen to American war criminals
who are brought before the victors to face victors justice.
See Germany.See Japan. Post WW2.
It is doubtful the American people are going to do what clearly is going to have to take place. Doubtful the American people will either know enough,care enough or be steeled enough to do what we surely see 535 Americans in the U.S.Congress not doing either since year 2000.
Americans and the militarism they enjoy funding,like sending out into the world to do what it does like to pick on weak nations to beat up. See Vietnam. See Afghanistan. See Iraq. See Yemen. See Libya. The fuse that once lit leads to a all out war does not seem very far off as we careen into this 21st century setting up resource,food,water and energy disputes and conflicts. Americans may think it is going to be another 19th or 20th century for them. Others may have to dislodge that view.
It will likely be getting a lot more savage this 21st century.
Colin Powell is a good American. Barack Obama is a good American.
That is the problem.
Could you provide some evidence for your assertion that Powell “is once again endorsing Obama”? He was interviewed on the Today show on Tuesday and stated that he wasn’t endorsing anybody at this point.
