The collapsing US military & economic empire is making Washington & NATO even more dangerous. US could not beat the Taliban but thinks it can take on China-Russia-Iran...a sign of psychopathology for sure. We must all do more to help stop this western corporate arrogance that puts the future generations lives in despair. @BruceKGagnon

MILITARIZING EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS



Watch this through the initial propaganda... It gets better as activists go the the board of directors at Cochise College in Arizona and challenge the corporatization of the campus and the teaching of students to become workers in the weapons industry building and operating drones.

Most of our college and university campuses across the nation, and around the world, are becoming militarized. As the schools face cutbacks they turn to the military for funding.  But there is a price to pay when you take money from the devil.  You lose your soul and these institutions of "higher learning" are facing this very fact - they are losing their missions to inspire and educate enquiring minds.  Instead they are turning our children into instruments in the Pentagon killing machine.

Congratulations to these brave activists in Arizona for taking their protest right into the center of authority at their local college.  More of us must do the same.
