In 1922, this report details, Lippman released his book “Public Opinion”, which is the instructional manual for how the United States government and media can propagandize peaceful peoples into warring against each other without knowing why—and Lippman proudly proclaimed: “Ours is a problem in which deception has become organized and strong; where truth is poisoned at its source; one in which the skill of the shrewdest brains is devoted to misleading a bewildered people”.
As Sorche Faal has observed, the Western media has rediscovered something called “the Lippman Gap”. The University at Albany-State University of New York historical document “Imperial Evolution: Walter Lippmann And The Liberal Roots Of American Hegemony” reveals: “When Walter Lippmann became a founding editor of the New Republic in 1914, shortly after the outbreak of […] voxday.net |
This so-called Gap is the same thing that traditional historians more usefully describe as Imperial Overstretch. It is a common behavior by late-stage empires that usually precedes contraction, internal division, and collapse.
The US empire is already dominated by the foreign influence of AIPAC, which has no interests in common with the American people, and whose influence has proved reliably destructive since the fatal Naturalization Act of 1965 overturned 44 years of strict immigration limits that helped the USA become a strong and mostly homogeneous empire in the aftermath of the Civil War and WWI. This pernicious foreign influence was compounded by the hubris of being the sole major power to escape serious damage in WWII with its industrial capacity not only unscathed, but significantly enhanced.
Now the USA is facing imperial overstretch due to its overcommitments abroad and the internal weakening of the country by the mass post-1965 invasion. It is unfortunate that so many Americans, real and paper, would prefer to permit the country to collapse into chaos rather than even attempt to look into the causes of the US decline and probable fall. But this is part and parcel of the usual historical process; the American Indian did not recognize the problem and join forces to oppose the European settlers until it was far too late too.
