Veteran Expediter
With the congress trying to pass a non-binding resolution to protest the Iraq war and the recent over the weekend protests with the usual bunch of moon bats coming out of from under the rocks, our country is now facing a new Vietnam.
This does not mean that the war in Iraq is actually another Vietnam, it does not approach the mess Kennedy and Johnson created but rather that the country is acting the same exact way we did 39 years ago and the outcome will be the same – we will be defeated.
• We are told that this is should be treated as a police action but it is a true military threat we face and has to be answered with military power, not the cop on the beat.
• We are winning, but are people say that we are not.
• We have a press in the country that for all intent and purpose sides with the enemy and is completely and openly antagonistic towards the administration to the point that they have fabricated stories and falsified documents.
• We don‘t hear the good stuff that has been happening in Iraq, all too often the stories of the success we have achieved is not only overlooked but intentionally ignored.
• The amount of soldiers who died in action with respect to the work we have done is the best we have ever had in any conflict we were involved with. We do indeed have the best troops in the world – no other country could do this job but the press makes it out like it is a blood bath every day throughout Iraq and the troops are dummies.
• The enemy has been clear in their manifesto, documents, speeches and commercials that they welcome the use of the media and protestors to divide the country to weaken our ability to fight by demoralizing the troops and the country. They are much smarter than the people in congress and the protesters because they watch carefully at what we do here and plan accordingly on how to leverage the discourse to their advantage.
I strongly feel that the real purpose of the protests is not to stop the war but rather aid the enemy and demoralize the troops to the point that they want to go home and abandon the job that they were sent there to do just to prove the point that they were rigth about the president and the action he took.
Reading the quotes of a 12 year old brainwashed brat at one protest, I realize that she will grow up not understanding what this is all about let alone have a clue how to support the country that she lives in. She echoes the 60‘s generation and the same words were used during that time to help the VC. It is rather sad that the media and her parents used her in the fashion that they did but again, history is repeating itself. With my generation, we were taught not to trust the government, not to trust the leaders in Washington and that it is alright to protest, hate and undermine anything we could to prevent the government meddling in other countries affairs even if it means that we are weak and unable to defend our interest or freedoms.
The resolution not only sends the signal to the world that we have a divided government that is the reflection of a minority of the people but it also sends a clear signal to the rest of the world that we can‘t be trusted to help or do what we say we are going to do. I think that the reason the world hates us in many ways is not because we invaded Iraq but rather we have been for many years inconsistent and divisiveness in our approach when it comes to our solutions to the world‘s problems. We have not been either consistent or united since before Vietnam and more worried about what the world thinks of us than the people we are trying to help.
Again many of the people, who say that this was an unjust war, say that this war is a war for oil, say that this war has too many causalities and say that protesting and resolutions from our out of touch congress is the proper thing to do don’t have a clue that the message is being heard by the enemy or have a clue what the fight is really all about or who the enemy really is.
It is really sad that the inmates finally got control of the asylum.
