Op-Ed Posted on Condi Rice’s Active Deception: Why Truth and Morality Matter by Robert David STEELE Vivas


Washington, D.C., December 11/PRNEWSWIRE/ -- Robert David STEELE Vivas, an intelligence professional, the #1 Amazon reviewer for non-fiction, and CEO of OSS.Net, Inc. a global open source intelligence (OSINT) corporation, has posted an 864-word Op-Ed that disputes today’s Op-Ed by Condi Rice in The Washington Post, entitled “The Promise of Democratic Peace: Why Promoting Freedom is the Only Realistic Path to Security.”

Below are two representative paragraphs. The Op-Ed may be reproduced and translated without compensation to the author.

“Let’s start with the truth. The truth that Condi Rice does not want the public to understand is that the end of cheap oil, the end of free water, drugs and drug money gladly laundered by US banks,, the military-industrial complex and its profiteering from war, and the immorality of Wall Street specifically and capitalism generally have gutted this country. We are unprepared for economic warfare, pandemic disease, natural disasters, or deliberate asymmetric campaigns, what Bin Laden calls the “death of a thousand cuts” against oil and water pipelines and pumping stations and storage tanks. The truth is that between tax cuts for the rich and comprehensive criminal schemes among major Wall Street and Fortune 500 firms the middle class and working poor in America have had close to three trillion dollars looted from their pockets and hence the Commonwealth; this literally has burned our seed corn—our savings.

“There are two other truths that Condi Rice is concealing from the public in her promotion of security through invasion, conquest, and occupation. The first is that there are not enough guns on the planet to protect our way of life. For the price of one book, Jonathan Schell’s Unconquerable World, anyone may reflect on this reality. We must learn to live in this world and use morality, charity, inspiration, wisdom, and sharing to ease the path for everyone, not just the elite few that appear to own her heart and soul. A second book, C. K. Prahalad’s The Fortune at the Bottom of the Pyramid, clearly charts the correct path.
