“They don’t want to make a big deal again about neo-Nazis in the military, because then parents who are already worried about their kids signing up and dying in Iraq are going to be even more reluctant about their kids enlisting if they feel they’ll be exposed to gangs and White supremacists” …blah blah, obligatory McVeigh reference..yadayada use as case form 1995 and copy and paste from the Salon article.
Yeah, take a look at these guys in the links below and then tell me again about the scary White ‘supremacists’ ‘extremists’ and ‘gangs’ . To Berkowitz, who wrote this mad libs templated pap- gee, has it ever occured to you that part of the whole engagement in anything middle-east is to protect YOUR dual-citizenship getaway? Aren’t you the ungrateful f&*ck much? Must be nice to have a private army of one’s own, constantly fueled by Ameribucks, though maybe not for long. Feeling nervous about The Black Guy AND Whitey now? Worried that The Black Guy might start having talks with Iran or push the two-state solution? Worried that The Black Guy is too busy on his latest ‘Obama! Buchenwald 09 tour’ to worry about Izzy ? Oh -and there’s still lots of guns available despite your scare tactic about The Black Guy taking away gun rights. Seriously-we already had lots of guns before The Black Guy. http://www.city-arms.com/
“Duhh nuh-uh, it’s about..uhh, yeah, bringing democracy to Iraq and freeing them.. oh wait, no , it’s about weapons of mass destruction–uhh, it’s about.. ..umm, getting that Bin Laden dude..no wait, it’s about Kuwait and umm Saddam.. WTF are we still here for again? I don’t know, but I sure feel messed up, and missing my legs and being disfigured sure doesn’t help.”

I’m against this war, as I am against most anything involving the US in the Middle East. That said, veterans can come back very screwed up from war and the military machine . Often times they don’t get as much help as they need. http://www.lasvegassun.com/news/2009/jul/14/still-waiting-and-waiting/
Whatever you think of the Iraq situation- there are many of Us in the military- maybe you have seen recent reports about this. So- I added the charity button to the right- It doesn’t take much effort- ll you have to do is rate videos, and they make a contribution. WordPress recently added this, it is in the widget section under ‘social vibe’.
