Mattis announced that Terrorism was no longer a the number one military priority - the new priority was Great Power Competition. Now that they have material for a new cold war with China and Korea, and a party in power that will fund military expansion, suddenly the fabricated fear of terrorism gets dropped. Odd. Odd enough to write a parody about it for certain. The other announcement was that there is no solid evidence that Assad gassed his own people, which has been my position all along. I'm just surprised someone finally admitted it.

LYING THEIR WAY INTO HEAVEN - Parody of Stairway to Heaven

SOURCE MATERIAL - Stairway to Heaven - Led Zeppelin

"Stairway to Heaven" is a song by the English rock band Led Zeppelin, released in late 1971. It was composed by guitarist Jimmy Page and vocalist Robert Plant for the band's untitled fourth studio album (often called Led Zeppelin IV). It is often referred to as one of the greatest rock songs of all time.

"Stairway to Heaven" was voted number three in 2000 by VH1 on its list of the 100 Greatest Rock Songs, and was placed at number 31 on "Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time". It was the most requested song on FM radio stations in the United States in the 1970s, despite never having been commercially released as a single there. In November 2007, through download sales promoting Led Zeppelin's Mothership release, "Stairway to Heaven" hit number 37 on the UK Singles Chart.

LYRICS

Mad Dog Mattis just said
the "War on Terror" is dead.
Are they lying their way into heaven?

Did we win that war?
Do we know what it was for?
Is it safe for us to ponder the question?

ooh ooh ooh ooh
Are they lying their way into heaven?

We went to Afghanistan
With a poorly thought out plan
in the aftermath of nine-eleven.

The terrorists were not there
and Bin Laden didn’t care
because he was well hidden in Pakistan.

Ooh, it makes me wonder

Afghans had to pay the price,
We left a warlord’s paradise
and we built up their opium production

Then when Karma took its turn,
so many things we’ll never learn,
we we’re stricken with opioid addictions

Ooh and it makes me wonder

Iraq was next in line
WMD storyline,
even though it turned out that there were none.

Over one million died
just because our leaders lied
and the birth of iSIS was what we won.

But there were benefits for someone
in the long run.
There was great profit to be had there.

So Halliburton claimed the spoils
for their toils
thirty-nine billion bucks was their share.

And it makes me wonder.

The highest living standard in Africa
was in Libya.
But that was all before we hit their shore.

We tore the fabric of their existence
with our “assistance,"
and left them with an enduring civil war.

Then we attacked in Syria
funding ISIS in the fray
"Moderate rebels” was their new name.
It sealed the notion we're insane.
They said Assad had gassed the lot.
Protestors here get gassed and shot
with chemicals they’re banned in war
at Waco, Standing Rock and more
We are the terror at our core

And their lying their way into heaven.
