The U.S. Government Plays God On Whistleblowers (tags)
If Bradley Manning showed the U.S. Military’s indifference to arbitrary slaughter by U.S. personnel well that is how the Old Testament lays out the ground rules in the Middle East. It’s NOT the Pentagon’s fault the New Testament had some other ideals that claimed all of mankind was part of God’s family. Still it seems apparent why there was so much adamant secrecy about sharing God’s secrets—since it seems kind of obvious Eden was not the psychological paradise it was purported to have been by the propaganda back then. More importantly despite there being religious precepts too often leaders of countries do whatever they want irrespective of what legal or moral codes should apply—and this goes for both Israel and the United States—so maybe the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil means leaders can act like arbitrary Gods while expecting their subjects to follow rules?
