And Soldiers are cowards who hide behind bureaucracy and claim to be “Just following orders” when they know deep down what we all know, that they are protecting Halliburton’s profit margins.
A soldier who is part of an invasion force, who kills people in THEIR OWN COUNTRY, is no better than a terrorist.
Airman Doors you can kiss my ass. You are no better than a terrorist. You are supporting an illegitimate occupation, you are either killing, or supporting the machine that kills Iraqis in their own country. You are the aggressor force, and they are defending their homeland. You are not defending me, I am not under attack. I was more likely to be killed in New York by other New Yorkers from 90-95, than I was by ANYONE from 2000-2005 including the 9/11 attacks. We had a lower murder rate in the first half of this decade than we have had EVER, and that includes the 3000 killed. Osama bin Laden is representing a people that we have backed into a corner. People that we in the Anglosphere have been dominating and fucking over for nearly two centuries. He is the Freedom Fighter, not you. You are the oppressor. If you were a real American, you’d put down your gun and take your court martial like a man.
It’s exactly because I love America that I need to tell you what the fuck is up, because you know it in your heart, you know that what we are doing is not right, that we are the aggressor force, that everything we’ve done is a shallow attempt to cover up the fact that all we are accomplishing is aggressive corporate expansion. Airman Doors, I want you to remember this in 15 years when they’ve cut your pension, when they’ve forgotten you just like they forgot the Vietnam vets. I want you to remember when your military benefits don’t mean squat. I hope you buy stock in halliburton, because it’s the only way you’re going to find a profit from your service.
You are NOT defending me, take solace in that. You are HURTING ME. The President said, I am either with him or with the Terrorists, I definitely ain’t with him, but don’t worry, this is as bad as it’s gonna get. I won’t do any worse than tell you straight up how I feel about this, and I will tell everyone how I feel about it.
This war is UNAMERICAN, and the President who’s profit margin you are fighting for is DESTROYING AMERICA. You should be marching on Washington not Baghdad. He’s working to bankrupt this country while expanding his regimes profit margin. They want to create an Empire, he wants to be Caesar, you scoffed at it in the other thread, but that’s what he’s trying to do. He wants to collapse the Republic and start the Empire, and you are part of his military that he’s using to do it. The thing is, he wouldn’t fight next to you, and he didn’t even want to buy you fucking armor until it became so politically unpopular that he had to. You’re a fucking fool. I don’t care how you romanticize and justify it to yourself. You should not be over there. You should be where the real Americans are IN AMERICA. If we were invaded, I’d be right fucking next to you with my rifle. If we weren’t toppling regimes left and right in order to create an underclass that is out of sight out of mind for the past 50 years, then there would be no terrorists attacking us. They don’t hate us for our Freedom, they hate us because we KEEP KILLING THEM AND STEALING THEIR RESOURCES!!!
So someone has to say it, you’re morally equivalent to a terrorist. You’re not better, you’re not worse. But what do you care, you don’t require my respect anyway, so it doesn’t matter. Keep on supporting the killing, the rape, the torture. Keep on telling yourself that Carlyle hasn’t been laundering money so your Bosses Daddy could sell weapons to both sides and keep them fighting for years and years. Keep telling yourself that your commander in chief feels more loyalty to you than the Saudis, but I’ll tell you right now he doesn’t. He values the lives of his Saudi buddies far more than he values yours. You are cannon fodder for him in his imperialist aims.
Eisenhauer the last President to truly lead an army warned against a Military Industrial Complex, he said it was the worst thing that could happen to America. Maybe it’s time people woke the fuck up and started listening. Just look at New Orleans if you want to see how much safer you are keeping us exactly. The bad guys are here, they aren’t over there.
I hope you enjoy your delusion.
