This Has Become Routine: Paul Craig Roberts
In his comment on the mass shootings at the Oregon community college, President Obama said: “This has become routine.”
So have police shootings of unarmed and unresisting Americans.
So
have numerous other undesirable and deplorable happenings, such as the
foreclosure on the homes of millions of Americans, while the “banks too
big to fail” are bailed out with trillions of dollars, and such as
foreign policy lies that have destroyed seven countries, bringing the US
and Europe millions of refugees.

In
addition there are the foreign policy lies that have brought the US and
Europe into conflict with Russia, and the economic lies that shield the
extraordinary concentration of income and wealth of the One Percent.

Also
routine is Washington’s obliteration of weddings, funerals, and medical
centers with bombs and drones. Two days after Obama expressed his
despair, frustration and anger over the Oregon mass shootings, a US air
strike hit a hospital in Kunduz, Afghanistan. According to numerous news
reports, at least 19 people were killed, including 12 members of
Doctors Without Borders, and another 37 wounded. The US air strike
killed one person on the operating table, and intensive care patients
burned to death in their beds.
