Maybe these fools who call themselves Christians should see a few pictures of these same exact soldiers when they do not know that the camera is on them and they are being their true selves.

Joan Russow (PhD), Global Compliance Research project...Since 2001, most of the NATO countries have been belligerents in Afghanistan. The current "mission" described as a 3D   defense, development, and diplomacy  mission violates a fundamental international principle that a belligerent state should never be involved on the ground in reconstruction. NATO states are supporting a 3 B campaign: BOMB, BRUTE, and AND BRIBE OPERATION. Bombing a village, blasting in doors, brutally killing and wounding citizens and ignoring culture and then bribing with funds for reconstruction of hospitals to heal the victims are beyond any claims of legitimacy... »More

» Worshipping the State: Why They Die... Simple facts most soldiers do not understand: The government (state) is not our country; when you fight and die in undeclared wars, you do so for the State and not for our country or our freedoms; when you forsake the Constitution you swore to uphold and defend to follow unconstitutional orders, even from your commander-in-chief, you cross the line from defender of your country to the very real possibility of becoming a war criminal.

» To the Victors Belongs Impunity:  Of Incorrigible Transgressors, Tacit Complicity, and Lady Justice's Conspicuous Absence. In this piece, I attack the blatant hypocrisy and farcical nature of the Saddam Hussein trials and death sentence. I spend a bit of time analyzing a few untried US war criminals and their atrocities, examine the fate they would need to endure to balance the scales of justice, and conclude that despite the pleasant MSM­ generated fiction that a Democratic Congress will "restore the republic", the ruling elite from "both sides of the aisle" will continue to perpetrate their egregious crimes with impunity. At least until the Empire implodes. [Jason Miller]
