‘If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.’ -- Sun Tzu, The Art of War
Truth in the Service of Empire: Response to Yvonne Ridley's 'Truth about US justice' (tags)
In my view, the prima facie “Truth about US justice” is that “truth” is in the service of empire!
