In Response To: Our Troops do NOT Protect Our Freedom, We Should Stop Thanking
Them
Speaking as a Marine Corps veteran and a Viet Nam veteran I couldn't agree more! It's
long past time for the American people to wake up to how they are marching in a parade
to their own destruction. As one of the Founding fathers said, "Patriotism is the last
refuge of scoundrels". Read the book, "War Is A Racket" written by Marine Lt. General
Smedley Butler, who was awarded the Medal of Honor twice. You can find it for free
on the internet.
He discovered that there is no honor in having your country send you thousands of
miles from your home to kill people you've never met to protect or seize the assets of
that country for big corporations. Besides all the needless death and destruction caused
by our military world-wide, and the huge drain on our economy, all we are doing is
creating future enemies. Do not forget that all of these modern day heroes volunteered
for this. All of you who think that this same group will not turn on the American people
when given the order to do so are going to be in for a rude awakening. Do you see what
our own police force does on a daily basis to the citizens of this country? And, they live
in the communities where they do this and also have at least some legal constraints on
their actions.
What do you think will happen when, under martial law our military who now have
many years of experience abusing civilians in other countries are turned against us? Do
I think everyone in the military is like this? No, but if those that aren't had even a small
amount of the courage the public gives them credit for, we would've heard from them
long ago. It easy to be portrayed as heroes when you have total air superiority, and all
the latest weaponry at your disposal. Then when you get a sniper round from an Iraqi
or Afgani village you can level it and it's high fives all around! The same cowardly acts
were committed in VietNam 24/7.
Lastly, all of you people, civilian or military, who also like to consider yourselves
Christians, enough with the self delusion! I ask you where in the teachings of Christ
does He advocate warfare and killing for any reason? Look at some of those postings
yesterday about the death of the Seals. People were praying to God for the Seals and
their families and then also praying for God to bring death and destruction on those
responsible for their deaths. God is a God of love and is the Creator of all. This includes
the Taliban and every other being in existence. Humans decide to send highly trained
killers into a foreign land and in the process, they themselves, are killed. Now you pray
to God to take the side of the trained killers who travelled thousands of miles to take
part in killing another part of His creation? The ironic thing is that in praying for God
to extract retribution on those responsible for the deaths of the Seals you are more than
likely asking for this to happen to some of our own leaders, both civilian and military.
So c'mon all of you Christians and flag wavers of all denominations. Like good little
Lemmings, let's continue the mindless march over the cliff. The Powers That Be are
having one hell of a good laugh. In fact, they've been having one hell of a good laugh
at our expense for a very long time!
