Falsehoods on Freedom

"Barack Obama told the British Parliament that the longing for freedom "beats in every human heart." He also stated that American and British leadership of the world remains "essential to the cause of human dignity." What he did not acknowledge was the fact that these two nations and their Empires have made human dignity an unattainable reality for millions who toil under their economic regime. Likewise, the history of these two nations on the world stage includes some very ugly episodes involved in denying the very freedoms Mr. Obama claims are the result of these nations' leadership."
