Ken O'Keefe in Tehran - 'Iran is not the Threat, we are' - American Patriots Rise

When America truly becomes a nation of honor I will be proud to stand among its citizens as a genuine member of the family.

Ken O'Keefe at the Hollysoodism conference in Tehran

(TEHRAN) - It is time to stop being Israel's Bitch!

I renounced my US citizenship and the United States of Hypocrisy refused to acknowledge my right, our right, to self-determination. Alright then, I am thinking now that maybe I just needed to leave for 10 years or so and reflect on things, now that I have, I have made some important conclusions.

First among them is that it remains an embarrassment, that idiot flag waving Americans have sat by while their Constitution was used like toilet paper and their government became a bought and paid for circus of clowns.

Second is that due to this despicable state of affairs of failing to pay attention on our watch we Americans have continued to be complicit in mass murder that is truly unparalleled in the modern age. God help us for what we are collectively responsible for.

Third, our American sons and daughters continue to be used as the meaningless pawns they are and ultimately, aside from those our sons and daughters murder in foreign lands, aside from those we rape and torture, our sons and daughters themselves are the biggest victims of all. We so pathetically spouted "support our troops", like idiots, incredible idiots, while effectively sentencing them to a fate that makes post-traumatic stress disorder almost inevitable.

Salem-News.com writers Franklin Lamb & Ken O'Keefe in Tehran

Look at the drug abuse, domestic violence, homelessness and suicide rates of returning soldiers and compare it to the returning soldiers of Vietnam, what the fuck are we doing to our supposedly cherished sons and daughters?

I have come to another conclusion, America is almost assuredly going down and going down hard, so hard that it might just bring the whole world down with it, for this reason more than any other I feel a need to exercise the best virtues I obtained as an American born son and do my best to sound the alarm. To reach out to every genuine, not fake ass idiot patriot, but to reach out to the genuine patriots.

And lastly, we need to acknowledge 100% that the American government is bought and paid for by the Zionist, Jewish supremacists, Israeli "dual citizens", which in truth is a pyramid with the Rothschild's and their bankster kin at the top. These are the puppet masters and they have used America as their strong arm, if we are so blindingly stupid as to continue this role as their enforcers, we will exterminate not only ourselves but possibly this beautiful world we live in.

Hiroshima and Nagasaki are proof of just how horrendous we have been and thus are capable of being today.

Ken with the Palestinian delegation

It is time to stop being chumps, it is time to actually give some meaning to the word patriot. It is especially time for those in the police, military and government who took an oath to uphold the Constitution to honor that commitment. Are you a person of honor? Or are you a fraudster? A coward?

I couldn't care less about fake patriots, but real patriots, I am serious about working with you. Get the fuck up and take the fake ideals of America and make them real. If that were to happen I will happily ask for my citizenship back... until such time I do not give my allegiance to this criminal entity and thus I am not a citizen regardless of the judgments of this corrupt government and its minions.

When America truly becomes a nation of honor I will be proud to stand among its citizens as a genuine member of the family. Let us make this so.

Thank you to Anthony Lawson for the reading.

TJP, Ken O'Keefe

Damit Ken, I am a great supporter of your work but as a woman, I take offense at your use of the term "bitch" in this way. I know you thought the word had some journalistic cachet but can't you just imagine if you had said the n word, do you think that would have gone over well? Next time just dig a little deeper into your vocabulary reserves. Thanks, peace, gp

I reviewed O'keefe's military record, not just what he claims. He deserves to be taken to Yemen, put in a box and left to rot. May he soon get what he deserves...in fact all you enemies of America. Why stay here...well, because you are cowards!

That's pretty for a person who doesn't even use a name.  Ken is a former U.S. Marine, he was an 03 which means Infantry.  He was in Desert Storm.  There are no questions about Ken's record, he is well established and the farthest man from a coward you will ever lay your eyes on. Ken is an enemy of the corruption and war crimes and hypocrisy, and I completely agree with him.

Ken, I dont know if you read these comments, but I have much respect for you, and sorry for posting twice but I just came across this and thought you might be interested..check this out: The importance of the BRICS summit cannot be overestimated partly because it represents new countries beginning to take power and partly because it heralds a new world coming into being.” Yes, BRIIICS, with three “I”s. That’s because to the countries of Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa (which have just held a summit in Durban, South Africa) will soon be added Iran and Indonesia. Iran is a stalwart moral and political leader. It stands up against Zionism. It has huge natural resources. It is making extraordinary technological progress. It will soon be a BRIIICS member. And so will Indonesia, which has the world’s fourth largest population, a fast developing economy (around 7% per year) and, again, huge natural resources. My comment: Are these countries against the IMF? Are they part of an IMF strategy? I dont know, but things...they are a changing no matter how you look at it.

Great article Ken. Touching, short, to the point..Xlnt. I also thought about leaving the country, but found out there really is no where to go. A person might get a 6 month delay in another country, but its worldwide now, and no where to hide. And as you mentioned, when the U.S. goes down, which it will, it will take the rest of the word with it. Bankers start world wars, and with banks failing, they will do it again. Zionist, Jewish supremacists...I actually call them Rothchild zionists, because the Rothchilds birthed the zionist back in the mid 1800's. They financed both sides of WW2, and worked with Hitler to put khazars into place in Palestine. Israel was put in place by the bankers as a strategical location to take over the middle east resources, and continue their efforts of world domination. I dont use the word "jew" because they are not jews, the are khazars, proved by DNA. Thanks for the article, I am tired of the U.S./NATO invading countries for world domination and control of resources also, while claiming it is for "humanitarian" reasons. Every country the U.S/Nato has invaded is extremely much worse off now. Ever notice how every country the U.S. invades is a country that did not want to be forced to use the petro dollar and be a part of the IMF? And as you mentioned, AMERICAN PATRIOTS NEED TO STAND NOW! And for those who condone bombing Iran, take a few moments to see what you are bombing from this link. http://www.pbase.com/dflynch/iranandpage=all

Ken's words strike the nerves of many because they are heartfelt with a veracity that emphasizes the truth found in the simplicty of life's lessons, something not found in a bookworm's collection of demagoguery nor the courses of snobbish and biased aristocratic neologisms and pedantics. His refusal to pull punches in confronting chauvinism and religious zealotry despite the credible threats of reprimand from extralegal and legal sources; grasps the attention of any apathetic loafer and of true patriots. The fact that he does so in the name of humanity, makes him admirable an one of a kind. This article and these words are outstanding and courageous.
