All this “ . . . drain the swamp” hyperbole; Mr. President has bitten off more bacon than he can chew, up to his eyeballs in the swamp. Deep state is as deep as deep can get, regarding pathological control of humanity. Democracy? Sorry, welcome to Pathocracy.
Definition: pathocracy (n). A system of government created by a small pathological minority that takes control over a society of normal people (from Political Ponerology: A Science on the Nature of Evil Adjusted for Political Purposes, by Andrew Lobaczewski).
Fifty-nine Tomahawk cruise missiles fired at a Syrian military airbase; replacement cost for the Raytheon Tomahawks far above the fifty-nine million dollars wasted on a law-defying, lie-based assault planned well in advance. You know, that pork-belly Industrial Military Complex . . . takes much feed, antibiotics and lies to get satisfying bacon.
Apparently, twenty-three of those million-dollar cruise missiles at least arrived near the target. Little damage except half-dozen lives, half-dozen old MIGs, and meaningless craters. The taxiways and runways remain intact.
And what happened to those thirty-six Tomahawks that went “missing”? Were they intercepted by SAMs such as Russia’s S-300s, S-400s?
So now we have The Donald at the fake helm called POTUS . . . yeah, the world’s “Superpower”. Trump is certainly gaseous. And everything except Rothschild control . . . Zionist control, all the lies and bullshit—the only truth in the destruction of Syria orbits a natural gas pipeline.
The Qatar-Turkey gas pipeline, to replace the Iran-Iraq-Syria pipeline now feeding Europe with Russian natural gas.
Assad will not allow the Qatar gas pipeline to transit Syria. That, my friends, is the truth that spawns the endless lies about Assad, and Syria. It really is that simple. Simple as pork bellies, and Superpower farts.
Napoleon Bonaparte said, “History is a set of lies agreed upon.”
Behold in Syria, construction of the panoply of lies we call, “History.”
Syria is a all-you-can-eat buffet of lies. Perhaps the greatest truth to come out of the Syrian nightmare is that . . . while spending far less on weaponry, Russia possesses superior weaponry—outclassing everyone else. That is perhaps the finest example of the structural flaws in the world’s Superpower’s war machine?
Please consider Lockheed’s monumental F-35. Monumental not in performance, but in cost. Fantastic drain of public wealth for something worthless compared to Russian avionics.
Doesn’t that seem a klaxon?
The US spends astronomical public resources on weaponry, more than most nations combined—yet is outclassed.
On the day before 9/11, Donald Rumsfeld announced that the “Pentagon” could not account for $2.3 trillion. 9/11 took that off the public radar.
Then in August, 2016 . . . the “Pentagon” admitted that $6.5 trillion more were “missing.”
$8.8 trillion, “missing.”
Missing in action, eh; trillions of dollars totally wasted. Thrown into the swamp, same as that clown trumpeting about draining the swamp.
Perhaps the most telling example of all these missing trillions was displayed today in the world’s Superpower’s pathetic display of inferiority. Let’s hope our swamped inferiority gets no more display.
Rand Clifford’s novel, TIMING from 2005 is a neocon blueprint for what has happened since September 11, 2001. Email: randoc@live.com.
For a truly shocking view of the rampant corruption of our MIC and the wanton waste of our tax revenues, check out “Pay Any Price: Greed, Power, and Endless War”, James Risen, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt (2014). Mr. Clifford’s definition of pathocracy refers to the American people as “normal”. I had reason to doubt that a couple of days ago when I viewed a short clip of Jimmy Kimmel’s opening monologue discussing the assault on an American Airlines passenger. During the monologue, the video clip that went viral was played and at its finish, the audience laughed and applauded enthusiastically.
“Mr. Clifford’s definition of pathocracy refers to the American people as ‘normal’.”
Tony, I could not agree more. “Normal” in the context of our Pathocracy simply means people born with a conscience. Psychopaths, tip of the iceberg of Pathocracy, have subjected people born with a conscience to, as they call it: “Arrested Human Development.”
That is the rest of the iceberg; their methods are panoramic. The results are as you explained. Thank You.
Rand Clifford this is an excellent analysis.
Sara DeHart…a beacon of justice. Thank YOU.
I love the word “Pathocracy!” Chris Matthews keeps spitting out the word Romanoff. He says we are living a Trumpanoff empire a la Romanoff. Someone ought to enlighten him to the fact that we are living in a Pathocvracy! Which we are.
E.T., encouraging awareness—and willingness to forward truth. Intrepid Report certainly is worthy of reporting truth.
It is all Pathocracy. Check out the article:

Intrepid Report, Bev Connover, Sara DeHart, E.T.—a heaping of hope.
