The murderer of millions- a man whose actions prolonged the misery of Vietnam War; Millions dead and disappeared in Chile, Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam, Myanmar, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Honduras, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Iraq, Iran, Indonesia; and the facilitator of the primary actors in the Palestinian-Israeli conflict; And one of the principle reasons behind 9/11... is finally dead.
So long Kissinger. Hell is too good for you, and eternal torment is too pleasant. You were a waste of air and you caused nothing but misery in this world. You deserved every bit of the torture you facilitated, and I'm sad you never sat on the dock at the Hague.
I hope the souls of those who died because of you never grant you rest, ever...
Fucking ever.

In short, instead of bragging about the enormous value of U.S. arms transfers and providing a sanitized view of their impacts, the Biden administration should take a hard, cold look at the risks of unrestrained arm exports on the reputation and security of the United States, as well as the human consequences of their use by U.S. allies. A good start would be to withhold further transfers to Israel as leverage to force a ceasefire in Gaza.
William Hartung in Responsible Statecraft. Tone deaf? Admin brags about 55% hike in foreign arms sales
Washington's sanitized view of unleashing $80.9 billion in weapons on the world, especially now, is a bit curious

i need to say, Bob Dylan released Masters of War in 1963 and when I listen to it today all I can think of is what’s happening to Palestine right now. i grew up listening to that song. i grew up listening to that song, a critic on the cold war, before i even knew anything about it. but i could feel his passion and his hatred of “you” (the person it’s about). music has always been a way to move people, to get your point across, to let your emotions out. i hear the songs people are writing about the genocide today, and the songs people have been writing for years about the truly awful injustices going on, and i fear that, as history has taught us, these songs will still ring true 60 years from now. but i hope not. i truly believe that we can make a change. we are strong and we continue to be strong. and our voices are louder now than ever. with the internet there comes a lot of misinformation but there also comes the ability to spread the truth, to fight propaganda. people are listening. corporations are losing so much money. we have to keep fighting for what’s right. free Palestine!! we can’t stop fighting there but it’s a start. it’s sets a precedent and says that we won’t allow people to be treated like this.

John is Haunted by Angel Wings and a Spear (hashtag Michael) in SPNWin 1x04 Masters of War:
This image is from 1x02 Teach the Children Well
Tumblr media
And this one is from 1x04 Masters of War
Tumblr media
Both these shapes in the set-dressing narrative look like angel wings.
1x04 Masters of War has the God Mars-Neto tell John:
Tumblr media
and he also says:
Tumblr media
“... in your blood - become what you were born to be!” (Neto is saying John has to choose violence to be ready for the war with the Akrida). 
This is very similar to the speech the Archangel Michael, wearing young John Winchester as a vessel, gave to time-travelling Dean in 5x13 The Song Remains the Same, in which he told Dean that he belonged to a bloodline stretching back to Cain and Abel:
Tumblr media
DEAN How'd you get in my dad, anyway?
MICHAEL I told him I could save his wife, and he said yes.
DEAN I guess they oversold me being your one and only vessel.
MICHAEL You're my true vessel but not my only one.
DEAN What is that supposed to mean?
MICHAEL It's a bloodline.
DEAN A bloodline?
MICHAEL Stretching back to Cain and Abel. It's in your blood, your father's blood, your family's blood.
http://www.supernaturalwiki.com/5.13_The_Song_Remains_the_Same_(transcript)#ACT_TWO 
Mars-Neto’s weapon of choice is a spear:
Tumblr media
 which recalls the Lance of Michael, which appears in Supernatural as the weapon used by Michael to kill Lucifer. We see it in the angelic “Green Room” in the painting of that angelic fratricide in 4x22 The Song Remains the Same:
Tumblr media
Image credit: http://www.supernaturalwiki.com/File:MichaelPainting.jpg 
And of course, it makes an appearance in 12x12 Stuck in the Middle with You when Cas is stabbed by it and tells Dean out loud he loves him for the first time: “I love you, I love all of you.”  
We also see the Michael-killing-Lucifer scene in the set-dressing narrative of SPNWin 1x06 Art of Dying in the form of a statue (by the window):
Tumblr media
It would seem John Winchester is being pulled by the tides of fate, apparently, into his “destiny” as the vengeful father in Michael’s vessel bloodline, who will raise Dean-the-true-Michael-Vessel to be “Daddy’s good little solder”.
And YET, John has a good friend (and fellow vet) in Losy, who tells him in SPNWin 1x04 that there is another path to take, other than shoving trauma down inside and letting it rage-control you:
Tumblr media
And John also has a loving mother who holds him, as he cries in the bath, at the end of this episode (after his PTSD Vietnam flash-backs have been heightened by Mars-Neto):
Tumblr media
Neither of these things were available to Dean at John’s age. 
So we are confronted, yet again, in The Winchesters, with the question of fate vs free will, so central to Supernatural.
In 4x16 On the Head of a Pin, Cas tells Dean (back when Cas still believed Heaven’s BS) “It is not blame that falls on you, Dean, it’s fate.” 
Is The Winchesters narrative telling us it is not fate which falls on John, but blame (because he chooses repression and violence instead of sharing and healing)?
Or, is Holy Ghost Narrator Dean trying his damndest to give John the emotional tools (and supportive friends and family) he needs to choose differently this time? Despite the menacing shadow of the Archangel Michael following him in the set dressing narrative?
The episode title, Masters of War, is also the title of Bob Dylan’s powerful anti-war song of that name. And Narrator Dean, let us not forget, is picking the music:
“You've thrown the worst fear That can ever be hurled Fear to bring children Into the world For threatening my baby Unborn and unnamed You ain't worth the blood That runs in your veins
How much do I know To talk out of turn You might say that I'm young You might say I'm unlearned But there's one thing I know Though I'm younger than you That even Jesus would never Forgive what you do
Let me ask you one question Is your money that good? Will it buy you forgiveness Do you think that it could? I think you will find When your death takes its toll All the money you made Will never buy back your soul”

Bob Dylan
Let me ask you one question Is your money that good? Will it buy you forgiveness? Do you think that it could? I think you will find When your death takes its toll All the money you made Will never buy back your soul
And I hope that you die And your death will come soon I will follow your casket By the pale afternoon And I'll watch while you're lowered Down to your deathbed And I'll stand over your grave 'Til I'm sure that you're dead
Bob Dylan - Masters of War (Live 1978)

[ID: The "wow, cool robot!" missing the point meme, with the robot replaced with text that reads, "You are the most perfect beings that will ever exist in all of time and space. No one will ever surpass your perfection.", with the quote attributed to Davros.
The scribbled head of a Dalek is looking at the test, and replying happing, "Wow! I can't wait to help everyone less fortunate than me!" With a widely smiling emoji.
Over the Dalek's head is a red arrow that is flying over its head, that reads, "You were built to kill everyone else".
End ID.]
I love Doctor Who.
