Ray - You know what amazes me about the argument you (and many others like you) make about sending our troops into harms way?... Our military is a VOLUNTEER service - they are trained for this and will go willingly. Why do people like you feel the need to assume that our military is not willing to preserve freedom and provide security so that you can sleep at night? It is clear that you and those that think like you have never been in the military. Additionally, it shows that you (and those who think like you) lack the integrity to serve your country (as your fore fathers did). The the lifestyle and liberties that you enjoy so much were not free - they were paid for by people willing to do that which you are not willing to do. Quit assuming that "harm's way" is a death sentence and start believing in and supporting our military. Good night. Tom U.S. Navy, BUD/s 186, SEAL Team 5, 13 years of proud service, now a civilian. One more thing... Hundreds of thousands of Viet Nam War vets feel that they've been abandoned by their government. People like you were the ones spitting on them when they stepped off the plane.

You hate the stock market, you hate the President, you hate the foreign policies of this country, and there is conspiracy all around you. You need to go for a walk and look at some trees or something, Ray.

The U.S. is the only nation-state to have been condemned by the World Court for international terrorism. (from Alternative Press Review) The U.S. vetoed a UN Security Council resolution calling on governments to observe international law. After deliberately targeting the civilian public health infrastructure, the U.S. military imposes a continuing economic blockade on Iraq which has directly resulted in the deaths of hundreds upon hundreds of thousands of children. The U.S. government is the primary financier and arms supplier for the decades-long Israeli war against the entire Palestinian people. The U.S. armed forces and U.S. organized and/or financed ally or proxy forces have killed millions upon millions of civilians since the end of World War II. This is the not-so-hidden meaning of the Stars and Stripes as the vast majority of people around the world understand it. Now the U.S. government has begun what it bills as an open-ended “War on Terrorism,” which conveniently ignores the fact that in the late Twentieth Century and the beginning of the Twenty-first Century it is the United States of America that, by its own definition, is the most prolific terrorist force in the world. While at the same time U.S. leaders are choosing to target whichever individuals, organizations, regimes and/or nation-states—among the wide array of opponents of U.S. policies—are deemed most convenient this week, leaving the rest for next week, next year or the next decade. This is, of course, a recipe for perpetual war, which is as well understood by President Bush and the other architects of the “New World Order,” as it was by the architects of a similar project of world empire that was proudly proclaimed the Third Reich, under a flag with a similarly not-so-hidden meaning. altpr.org
