See the connection, and the  similarity: the United States launches criminal 
wars of aggression against  nations which constitute no serious threat to it, 
and which are known to  constitute no serious threat -- for the sole purpose 
of gaining compliance, that  is, of installing governments in other countries 
that will act in accordance  with our demands. This has long been the purpose 
of our interventionist foreign  policy: to ensure that other countries act in 
accordance with our orders, even  when genuine issues of national defense are 
altogether absent. America is God.  God's Will be done. Even after the 
catastrophe of Iraq, leaders of both  political parties threaten war against 
Iran, 
another nation that does not  threaten us, because Iran dares to thwart our 
will.

Is it any wonder then that, within our own borders,  law enforcement will use 
potentially lethal weapons in the absence of any  serious threat -- simply to 
gain compliance? When the state decides that your  behavior matters, you will 
obey. Yes, you may engage in debate -- within the  parameters established by 
the state. Yes, you may ask questions -- if the state  approves them. If you 
dare to step outside the boundaries set by the state, you  will be brought into 
line, by force as required -- and by possibly lethal force.  The United 
States government murders a million innocent people who never  threatened it; 
of 
what significance is the life of a single student, especially  since he's a 
"troublemaker" anyway?
