Why are there so many unexplained discrepancies in the government's actions? From
needless fluoride pumped into municipality water to funding branches of the terrorist group
known as Al-Qaeda who we were (still are) fighting in Afghanistan at the time. Why are there so
many misconceptions surrounding current political issues? Why are so many important, high-
priority issues typically excluded from the general political frame of discussion? Take fluoride
for instance. As the CDC states on its fluoridation page, For 70 years, people in the United
States have benefited from drinking water with fluoride, leading to better dental health. The
prevention of cavities is ultimately the sole reason for the mass fluoridation of drinking water,
reducing cavities around 25% according to the CDC. If this water treatment can prevent people
from forming cavities and spending money at the dentist, why is it banned in China and Sweden?
Why do Austria, Denmark, Norway and Japan reject the addition of fluoride into the water
supply for public health reasons? Why does the government of Belgium reject the notion of
fluoride in the public water supply on the basis that those who want fluoride in their water can
add it? Many fear that long term exposure and frequent ingestion of even miniscule
concentrations can lead to a variety of health problems including, but not limited to, weak bones,
arthritis, thyroid disease, calcification of the pineal gland, kidney disease, cardiovascular disease,
neurotoxicity.how valid are these fears? Why would the CDC disregard countless peer-
reviewed scientific reports concluding long term toxicity of fluoride? Why does the government
not trust its citizens to brush their teeth with fluoridated toothpaste instead of force feeding them
to ingest fluoride through the water supply? Why is it that the dose of fluoride in a recommended
amount of fluoridated toothpaste is reason to call the poison control center if swallowed, yet
when that same dosage is found in a glass of Chicago tap water, its not deemed an issue?
Why did the Obama sign an amendment to the National defense authorization act
legalizing the governmental use of propaganda on the general public and the deliberate
deceive or feed misinformation to the public? Why did Obama sign an amendment to the same
act in 2016 that illegalized any piece of writing that the United states government might deem
Propaganda? With the two contrapositives juxta-posed, how can we trust the government to
not label the truth that contradicts government propaganda as illegal foreign propaganda. Why do
most Americans still believe the Russian hacking story without any real evidence? Why do most
Americans believe the US government and mainstream media when they say Bashar Al-Assad
used chemical weapons, despite no evidence, no motive on his part, and his repeated denial of
In the recent chemical attacks, which occurred after the Syrian air force launched an
airstrike on an extremist militant compound, why would the Syrian government use(or need to
use) chemical weapons after repeated threats and accusations in the past, not to mention the war
on ISIS being won? Why doesnt the mainstream media propose the notion that the militant
compound had chemical weapons? Why did Trump launch on airstrike on the airbase that serves
as the HQ for the aerial war on ISIS, the base being located a mere 20 miles from the nearest
jihadi compound. Why does the official narrative frame Assad as a war criminal with no solid
proof, yet turn a blind eye to the chemical weapons being used in Yemen by Saudi-Arabia. Is it
because the United States are providing those weapons, along with bombs and vehicles?
Speaking of Human rights violations and Saudi Arabia, why does the general public not know
that Saudi Arabia beheaded more people than ISIS in 2015? Why is the massacre of
homosexuals and other demographics in Saudi Arabia and Qatar not an issue? Why is the general
public ignorant of the fact that Syria is one of the most progressive governments/countries in the
middle east? Why does the US want Assads regime, which was democratically elected in
open elections, ousted so bad that the joint chiefs of staff would sign off on a document
acknowledging the intentional and deliberate support and aide of terrorist groups such as Al-
Qaeda in Iraq, Al-Nusra, and other jihadi and Salafist militant groups intending to impose a
Salafist principality in eastern Syria - now known as ISIS. With this declassified document, the
fact of CIA funding of weapons and direct fiat currency to jihadi groups in Syria, and the state of
Syria in the present day, is it fair to say the US made ISISs current level possible? Would the
How would the long proposed pipeline from Qatar to Eastern Europe fit in this equation
given the fact that it would have to go through Syria- for to the east is water, and to the west of
Syria are hundreds and hundreds of miles of mountain ranges. Could oil interests explain why
the United States governments biggest ally in the middle east is an authoritarian monarchy that
is one of the largest sponsors of terrorism in the world, not to mention one of the biggest human
rights violators? Can it explain why Trump left Saudi-Arabia of the travel ban that included
Syria, Yemen, and other countries that have never produced a terrorist that infiltrated the United
state and committed a crime. Could this explain the complete disregard of the sovereignty of
Syria, and the progressive strides the country has made to a fair and equal democracy which
denounces religious extremism and persecution? Why does all this matter? What consequences
will result if these questions are left unanswered? How important are these questions to the
average American? If these questions are not inserted in into mainstream political discussion in
the near future, what direction will our country go? Will this issue be ignored until US soldiers
are already spilling their blood for oil (not humanitarian) interests?
