Questions that American Society Should Be Asking on Behalf of Deterring Terrorism and Related Violence

The initial euphoria expressed by many Americans after the death of a world-infamous Arab terrorist has been naive and ill-advised.

For American society to achieve a lasting peace and a lasting harmony with the rest of the world, our federal government must first strive to make our nation as morally defensible and admirable as possible. Our nation's political and cultural leadership can achieve that crucial goal by diligently and comprehensively addressing each of the following questions:

---Are there any ways in which the United States Government or American society does, in fact, inflict any form of defacto or government-endorsed "state terrorism" on any foreign citizens or any foreign nations (or on any American citizens, for that matter)?

---Does the United States Government this century ever act in an unjustifiably unilateral manner in initiating military invasions of other nations?

--In which ways do American society and the U.S. Government significantly wrong any persons born in a foreign nation or any foreign nation?

--Does the United States Government currently wrong the residents of Puerto Rico, who are each currently denied their citizenship right to be represented in the United States Congress as well as many other citizenship rights that are routinely granted to other American citizens.

--Does the United States of America champion a principled approach to human rights issues featuring full support for the legal and human right of each and every person on this planet to be classified as a citizen of some country or foreign nation, or, if need be, of a United Nations Protectorate territory, it being the case at present that millions of human beings who are born Palestinian in ancestry, for instance, are themselves denied the legal and human right of citizenship in any nation of the world or in a United Nations Protectorate, because of an outrageous violation of and contempt for their own human rights.

---Are there any ways in which American society has acquired global infamy for somehow "sponsoring" or "permitting" or "authorizing" or "approving" any form of anonymous communications or illegal communications or injurious communications featuring verbalized death threats being inflicted on persons who are being subjected to those anonymous communications against their wishes?

---Does the United States Government currently provide technical assistance on contraception-education programs and vasectomy-surgeon training programs in foreign nations, it being flagrantly obvious that American society currently plays a role in unwanted pregnancies in other nations that result from sexual promiscuity and non-marital sex between single teenage persons, with many hypersexual Hollywood movies and X-rated movies produced in the United States appearing to exalt frequent and anonymous promiscuous sex with a wide variety of sex partners.

---Has American society subjected any current resident of the United States or any current citizen of the United States to any form of defacto or actual involuntary public nudism or defacto or actual involuntary public nudity in any context that occurred against the wishes of that individual?

---Has the United States Government failed in any way to fully acknowledge the legal right of any single adult person in the United States to himself or herself enjoy the option and legal right at all times of himself leading a completely celibate and single adult lifestyle on a 24-hour-a-day and year-round basis?

--Has the United States Government courageously opposed the infliction of religious propaganda or anti-religious propaganda or atheist propaganda on any current resident of the United States or citizen of the United States in any context that violates the privacy rights of that American resident or American citizen, with the so-called "deprogramming" activities involving the kidnapping of American residents or American citizens often involving a violation of the human rights and privacy rights of the individuals held hostage in that type of context.

--Does the United States Government currently permit the censorship or attempted censorship of any law-abiding and privacy-respectful adult citizen of the United States, any such censoriousness that is currently occurring in the United States being a flagrant form of repressive violation of the Freedom of Speech and Freedom of Religion legal rights of that individual.

---Is the United States Government currently permitting the illegal and very sinister and injurious infliction of noise pollution as a weapon being used to punish or harm the medical health and personal safety and financial earnings capacity of any current citizen of the United States whose own political or religious beliefs or personal beliefs or law-abiding conduct differ from those of any or many members or officers of the Democratic Party, the Republican Party, the Libertarian Party, the Socialist Party, or any other political group or religious group or civic group or non-profit group found in the United States.

--Is American society relying excessively on raw materials in foreign nations for use by American-financed manufacturing plants? Doesn't any such over-reliance underscore the urgent need for American society to significantly increase recycling of raw materials that can already be found inside the United States?

--Why doesn't American society currently have a nationwide recycling program that is truly comprehensive in nature, and that is mandated by the United States Government for all citizens and residents and employers of the United States to participate in fully, regardless of where in the United States they reside.

--Does the United States of America have an adequate nationwide policy for preventing the deplorably illicit "export" from the United States of marijuana or any other illicit drug to Canada or any other foreign nation, it being a certainty that any and all illicit-drug trafficking that originates in the United States and enters a foreign country in an illicit manner is a form of defacto terrorism that American society inflicts on foreign nations.

---Why hasn't the United States Government imposed new prohibitions on any and all travel to foreign nations by American citizens who are either HIV-positive or who have AIDS, it being a certainty that many foreign citizens understandably blame citedly promiscuous and irresponsible Americans for the unconscionable spread to foreign nations of the HIV virus and of the often-fatal AIDS.

---Why hasn't the United States Government established an adequate AIDS-prevention program that, among other things, requires any and all persons in the USA who test positive for the HIV-virus to each promptly register that alarming medical information about themselves with the United States Government.

---Should the United States Government assume a leadership role in AIDS prevention by classifying the infection of another person with the HIV virus as a federal offense and felony crime for which the individual charged with infecting another human being with the HIV Virus should be prosecuted in federal court.

---Why shouldn't the United States Congress help to prevent the spread of sexually transmitted diseases and AIDS by approving a new federal law that orders the closing anywhere and everywhere in this country of any and all commercial sex parlors and other establishments, including the so-called "gay bathhouses," where anonymous sex frequently occurs in a public place.

--Why doesn't the United States Government encourage land-conserving, compact development of existing municipalities in this country by imposing a five-year ban on any future intrusion into wilderness land or farmland or agricultural cropland or ranchland that would have occurred for the purpose of real-estate development.

--Why doesn't the U.S. Government assign very high priority to establishment by the U.S. Congress of a nationwide criminal-recidivism prevention program, it being painfully apparent to any observer of the United States of today that the vast majority of all Americans who are convicted of a felony crime will, upon release from prison, eventually commit yet another felony crime.

---Has the United States Congress approved a new federal law aimed at deterring the unconscionable crime of stalking, such as might occur if Congress were to classify any and all cases of stalking of any current resident of the United States or any current citizen of the United States as a federal offense and felony crime, the crime of stalking often occurring in a context in which the intrinsically sinister stalker resides in a U.S. state other than the one where his intended victim resides.

---Has the United States Government pursued any actions to strengthen the legal right of any American citizen to decide for himself in which city or town or county or state of the United States he agrees to reside, any policy to the contrary by American society being an example of the deplorably repressive policies that are pursued by communist countries or socialist countries exhibiting a contempt for the right of individuals to set their own course in life and decide for themselves where they agree to reside.
