I just received this post from Consortiumnews.com and I believe that it is too important not to send right out. It may well attack some of your preconceptions, but I urge you to read it in full. The danger we face as a nation because of our willingness to accept 'evidence free' charges of wrongdoing just because they are widely repeated in the establishment media endangers all of us in many different ways. It should be an axiom of any thinking person to at least question received wisdom when no evidence is presented in support of its validity – and in this case no evidence has been presented in support of the government's assertions; while counter-evidence has been presented which renders these assertions to be impossible as presented.

Attached are two really important documents and I hope that you will take the time to read both in full. The first is a rather brief memo to Trump from Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity (VIPS) concerning the incredibly foolish but increasingly likely probability of war with Iran. The second is a much longer essay by Henry A. Giroux focused on the current existence of what he terms neoliberal fascism. I can't overstate just how important I believe this essay is in understanding the perilous situation we are now facing in this nation and in much of the rest of the world. I recognize that many of you will not want to take the time to read this, but I certainly encourage you to do so.
