Dead People Read Your Script 4. Soldier in Iraq
February 8th 2007 12:52
Let’s look at the facts. There is a war in Iraq. Soldiers have gone to fight in Iraq. Some have lived. Some have not.
Now, some of these soldiers are there for things they believe in. Some are just trying to find a role for themselves. The thing is, a living soldier can express what they believe in. A dead one, obviously doesn’t have that same luxury.
There tend to be two views to every war; justified, and unjustified. In few wars is this so perfectly exemplified as in the Iraq war. Now, there could be an endless conversation on which of these the Iraq war is. It doesn’t matter right now. What does matter is that some soldiers have come back form Iraq strongly opposed to the war, and some have returned strongly for the war.
This is true also for those who return zipped up in body bags. Some would have supported the War and been proud to die for their country. Some would have regretted enlisting, and opposed it venomously. However, ALL of them have numerous folk with a hand in their back, moving their wooden mouths up and down.
Thank God you gave your life to become a puppet in this manipulative political bullshit.

What do they think? Does it matter? Do you care?

It's the "Tribal White Guys" - gotta love 'em - their training is not to be believed, indeed.
Every mother's son... I'm on the, 'Thumbs Down to War' side of the room... Cib is right, it's utter BS.
Barter, that's the way forward for humanity...
Great Post!
