As Israel escalates its attacks on Gaza, the State Department is discouraging diplomats working on Middle East issues from making public statements suggesting the U.S. wants to see less violence, according to internal emails viewed by HuffPost.
In messages circulated on Friday, State Department staff wrote that high-level officials do not want press materials to include three specific phrases: “de-escalation/ceasefire,” “end to violence/bloodshed” and “restoring calm.”
Oh, liberals do like recommending books. But as you say, they make you think smaller. And it's a closed list. Like, once you've read Animal Farm, 1984, and a few others, that's supposed to be it: you're supposed to read those and never think again because no new information is allowed to contradict what those books say. These books are the concrete fence panels that restrict your view so you can't see past the liberal world outlook.
Kind of hard to accept liberal values (even static ones) when you are from a country that the US has installed a military dictatorship in.
