5 Historical Events That Show The Ruling Class's Indifference To The Wellbeing Of Mankind

As our present day becomes increasingly dystopian by the barrel bomb load with an inane celebrity culture passing for news presented dispassionately by cardboard droids; the surplus of extras from "The Stepford Wives", juxtaposed with the most horrendous annihilation, displacement, and dehumanisation of innocent people throughout the Middle East we must ask, what is it that facilitates this apocalyptic situation? Can we put today's reality into context by examining events of the past? Is there evidence of any event that an unempathetic power elite has manipulated before for their own gain? Below are five historical events that glimpse the ruling class's indifference to the wellbeing of Mankind.

1st: The Nayirah Testimony

On October the 10th 1990, in the lead up to the 1990-1991 Gulf War, a young Kuwaiti volunteer nurse using only her first name, Nayirah, to protect her family in Iraqi occupied Kuwait, testified at The Congressional Human Rights Caucus. She gave a harrowing testimony about witnessing Iraqi soldiers leaving babies to die on a cold hospital floor after being removed them from their incubators. The repetition of this horrifying story throughout main stream media outlets, retold on camera by the American President at the time George H.W. Bush, helped bolster support for American military intervention in Kuwait resulted in the American congress voting for war. Nayirah's incubator story, however, was a fabrication. This tale that tipped the balance of opinion in favour of sending troops to fight Iraq is now widely known to have been conjured up by public relations firm Hill and Knowltown, the firm responsible for directing the Kuwaiti oligarchy's U.S. based group, Citizens for a Free Kuwait. Nayirah turned out to be the daughter of Saud bin Nasir Al-Sabah, the Kuwaiti ambassador to the United States and a member of the Kuwaiti royal family. Nayirah wasn't even in Kuwait at the time of the alleged baby killing incident. The manipulation of public opinion and the American congress to support war through use of this atrocity propaganda was to suit the ruling class in America during this period. By forsaking their previous ten year friendship with Saddam Hussein, in which he had gassed and committed atrocities on his own people, intervention was to allow American business more control over the oil fields in the region. The Bush regime and his cronies used Nayirah's fake story to foster support for their own agenda. The ruling class's indifference to the wellbeing of mankind can be seen in this historical event in which compelling false narratives and psychological manipulation were used to justify sending misled soldiers to fight, kill, be experimented on (resulting in Gulf War Syndrome, and die in the Gulf War of 1990-1991.
