Zero Hedge — Clapper: The U.S. Meddled In Foreign Elections And Conducted Regime Change In The "Best Interests Of The People"


James Clapper admits the obvious and explains it based on liberal ideology that justifies interventionism counter to international law on "moral" grounds.

This is a recipe for making things up. The institutional rule of law exists to obviate the arbitrary rule of men.

But American exceptionalism puts the US above the law.

The U.S. government has become so corrupt that demons like Clapper often don’t bother to lie anymore regarding foreign policy.

In the video below at 4:55, ex-CIA director James Woolsey boasts that the U.S. government meddles in foreign elections, but it’s “only for a very good cause” (i.e. only to widen the gap between the rich and the rest).

Henry Kissinger, while arranging for the 1973 coup in Chile, famously said, “The issues are much too important for the Chilean voters to be left to decide for themselves.”

These days the only time that politicians and bureaucrats bother to lie is when they face an election struggle. For example, the UK Conservatives feared they might lose control of parliament in the U.K. local elections of 3 May 2018.

Therefore the Conservatives fabricated the Skripal poisoning hoax, plus the Labour Party's “anti-Semitism” hoax, and so on.

Do they meddle in domestic elections in the best interest of citizens?
