" ... the United States, for generations, has sustained two parallel but opposed states of mind about military atrocities and human rights: one of US benevolence, generally held by the public, and the other of ends-justify-the-means brutality sponsored by counter insurgency specialists. Normally the specialists carry out their actions in remote locations with little notice in the national press.
That allows the public to sustain its faith in a just America, while hard-nosed security and economic interests are still protected in secret."

Quote snagged from the Information Clearing House Newsletter.
End of August/early Sep 2009 brings the Saturn conjunction to US natal Neptune, planet of ideals and illusions (the 'facing grim reality' transit) which may bring revelations of atrocities which the American people will be shocked to discover as leaden Saturn brings accountability to stomp on our delusional dreams. Just a thought, and not a very nice one.
