I just watched this Dutch documentary.
I never really new anything about the Carlyle group, but this video made me curious to learn more.

So they do a lot of lobbying and fishing for defense contracts and global defense related investments ... they are heavily involved in politicical circles, and they have George Bush Sr. on their payroll ...

hmm.

George W: "Hey Daddy, I know ... I'll start a war, a real BIG war ... then you go around the world soliciting arms deals ... it'll be great ... we'll be worth BILLIONS ... woo hoo ..."

  • That's how they operate and people (society) are so clueless. They would rather think about nonsense in comparison and throw daggers at those who do.

    How stupid they will feel when they finally realize (if they can somehow mentally manage it).

    The media is a machine to control the mind of the weak. Everyone has a price tag and can be manipulated into doing anything.

    Few really understand this. So few.
    Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
    and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
    over specific principles, goals, and policies.

    they have lots of other former politicians and cabinet members, as well

    also, a few years ago, even tho the pentagon advisory board voted against funding a weapons project by the carlyle group (they said it wasn't worth the $) bush went ahead and put it into the budget anyway...the pentagon finally cancelled the deal but not until after they got paid first.....
    standin above the crowd
    he had a voice that was strong and loud and
    i swallowed his facade cos i'm so
    eager to identify with
    someone above the crowd
    someone who seemed to feel the same
    someone prepared to lead the way
