From The
Idiot Factor:
As I watch TV I notice more and more
and more commercials that claim to honour our vets. The news media,
radio, TV,
especially, and our newspapers all glorify or cover people
who glorify our vets.
I work in the Wichita School System and
they have pro-vet signs all over the school, many that encourage our kids to
“say thank you to a vet.”
I don’t mean to disrespect vets, but I
won’t be thanking them. Here are specific things that I won’t be thanking them
for—>
Stealing and ivading people’s countries
in Iraq and Afghanistan. I don’t appreciate that we
illegally occupy two countries. We are vettting those who enter the political elections
in those countries that we laughingly lable as “democraies.”
Ripping off the Kurds who bravely fought
against ISIS for us and then found out the US and
its allies have no inentions of giving them any more autonomy then they already
have.
The use of drones to kill suspected terrorist leaders
along with their families, children and friends who happen to be nearby.
Cheap oil and other
resources that we get first, before the people who live in
those countries.
A greater standard of living that
people in this country take for grated, but those in
foreign countries, as in Bangladesh, live as if they are stuck in the 1800s.
As far as I’m concerned this country
has robbed people of their dignity and respect so that the US can play god.
The only people defending our freedoms
are the American Civil Libery Union and a few
other groups who are the ones who really fight for our freedom. Not the
soldiers who defend the US Empire.
