I drove past this between Salida and Cotopaxi on State Highway 50 in Colorado. I had to turn around and tell whoever that I stood with them totally assuming I was correct. I was and got the biggest hug of appreciation for doing so.

From my understanding, there are close to 3000 children being held around this country after being seized from their parents at the border.

Many will never see their Mom and Dad again because Republicans are totally evil.

You bastards!

Horseface Does Not Speak For Me

You bastards! Both sides are identical when it comes to rattling the nukes.

Secretary of State John Kerry said that “all options are on the table”

Not To Worry

Oh the drama -

Budget uncertainty could derail expansion of special ops forces

Don't mean shit! When over half of our tax dollars are spent on the military and they/we are active all over the world who in the hell do you think is actually calling the shots in DC.

Just Another #

I wonder what the parents think about these deaths and if any express those thoughts to the rest of the public. Their own and the others that died the same month in Afghanistan. 
 
Then the recent plane crash that killed a bunch of contractors. Sure get to see their faces a bunch. Not much is said these days about contractors and how many there are and what they do.

Few give a shit and those that do are not listened to.

And For What??

Five US troops killed in helicopter crash, officials say

There are no voices in DC that demand we leave now.

No voices in DC that say these troops died for nothing.

Few voices anywhere that scream no more and those screams go unheard.

The Title Alone Is Proof

As U.S. troops prepare to leave, they rush to teach Afghans to hunt for roadside bombs 

The LINK to the bullshit if you care to read.

Proof to me anyway why certain people needed to and still must be held accountable for their actions in a wars based on the lies of a few that took a nation to war that killed tens of thousands. There is no pass on shit like this - never!!

The Defense Dept Will Not Grind To A Halt

Glancing over this piece it makes it appear as though the military and most of what it does will not function.

Bullshit and don't believe it for a second. If some shooting needs to be done you can damn well bet we'll be able to do that and much more as required. You betcha!

I want to see much more of our defense budget shot out the barrels of all the guns we don't need and the money be used here at home.  We can adapt.

The nonsense coming down the road will be almost unbearable. Count on that too.

Tanks would not roll, fighter jets would be grounded and aircraft carriers might be stuck dockside. In addition, the Defense’s Department 800,000-member civilian workforce likely would go without paychecks at times. By the end of September, two-thirds of U.S. Army combat troops would be “unacceptable”. I think we’re going to have serious readiness effects. I don’t see where we’re going to get the money. We’re going to have to cut back on training significantly.” “The effects of sequestration on the military will be devastating, but on our civilians, it will be catastrophic,”.

Pentagon Changes Army's Training Goals

I find this interesting. I just wonder who they think will engage them in "large-unit" engagements. Although I do not agree with with the majority of this country's budget used for the military I acknowledge we can and should be able to beat anyone out there in open engagements.  

Window-rattling shellfire on Fort Carson's training range will be heard more often in the future as the Army shifts its training goals back to large-unit operations with artillery, armor and helicopter support. "Our training is shifting away from counter-insurgency and back into more direct action," 

I occasionally can actually hear explosions from Fort Carson maybe 45 away as the crow flies. Then there is the Pinyon Canyon(and they want much more) training site not too far to the SE. There is a fair amount of military air traffic and vehicles on the interstate going to and from these two places. I do enjoy seeing big planes flying low btw.

This fellow in the article goes on to say - "We're going to be noisier in the future,". I say kiss my ass you smug bastard!

Fine By Me

Maybe enough will quit that the pentagon can be drowned in the bathtub. Oh Happy Days!!

Male Marines listed being falsely accused of sexual harassment or assault as a top concern in a survey about moving women into combat jobs, and thousands indicated the change could prompt them to leave the service altogether.

HOW MUCH

PESHAWAR, Pakistan - Eighteen suspected militants were killed in three separate American drone attacks in Pakistan's South Waziristan on Saturday night, military and government sources told NBC News.

Ya - just how much are you just plain sick of this shit?? They can do the very same to us. Few get it.

The Empire's War Machine Headed South

After fucking things up proper in the Middle East for a pack of lies this Chester has been tapped to head up AFRICOM.

He's been at this job for a long time all over the place. He does the bidding of his masters. He's probably a decent fellow.


AFRICOM the newest you betcha from the people who are really calling the shots. About three times the size of the good 'ol USof A and filled with many untapped resources and and people who are easier to influence than some and that does not mean uneducated Africans.

Africa Command, headquartered in Stuttgart, Germany, is the newest of the Defense Department’s nine unified combatant commands. 

It was created in 2007 and is responsible for U.S. military relations with 54 African countries.

There is little good that will come out of this except for those who benefit from endless war on the bodies of others.

And few say boo. Where we are at as a nation. Having to take it for years and knowing there are many more of the same coming down the tube sucks.

I will not be quiet like others. We already have a long military history there. If anyone thinks that this Africa War Machine/Front will not grow into something hideous you are wrong.

Just What In The Hell Would They Do??

If only we actually had a say in how our money is used and said no to much of this. Me dreaming about this "if" changes nothing. A very sobering piece below.

Sales from the 44 US-based companies featured accounted for over 60% of all arms sales by the top 100 producers in 2010, with Lockheed Martin topping the list at $35.7bn (£22.4bn) worth of arms sales in 2010.

Life must be good for those above. They make life good for the ones who vote to send them my dollars for a war machine I do not want. People aren't buying shit and won't anytime soon. We have a war machine economy and looking for more while the Chesters tell those on the Hill just how things are going to be done.

Some Call This Winning

It's not! And little if not anything is said by the candidates for Prez. 2014 we're gonna leave huh. Many more months of American deaths for nothing. Merka is fine with this and no body says boo.

So They Got "El Coss" - So What

You and I paid $5 million for a reward so another can step up and take his place.

The Mexican Navy said Wednesday it had captured one of Mexico's most wanted drug bosses, the head of the Gulf Cartel, in what would mark a major victory in President Felipe Calderon's crackdown on organized crime.

Remember not that long ago Calderon spoke so harshly and truthfully about the US. That didn't last long. You can bet he got made an offer he couldn't refuse from the Empire.

This is actually a pretty decent representation of what goes on south of the border and similar here as well in many ways too. So decades of the same will continue even though an idiot can understand this war front can not and will not ever be won.

It Was Never Going To Be Won

The Empire has years of training experience in "over there" places and much of that involves weapons and "security".

All that training and they turn on you - like in and on our major - who gives a shit war front which is in Afghanistan.

It appears the training was poor in that bad guys with back rounds to indicate that were recruited into the military and the police forces. 350,000 strong.

Now they kill us but we are "winning".

Afghanistan’s Defense Ministry on Wednesday said it has detained or removed hundreds of soldiers from its military’s ranks as part of an investigation into the backgrounds of its troops 

Think of how many years the response has been pretty much the same when a helicopter goes down.

The Taliban claimed to have shot down a helicopter in eastern Logar province, where coalition forces are staging an operation against the insurgents. The Taliban often issue claims of responsibility even when it is unclear whether they had anything to do with the downing of an aircraft.

And most of the time they did! Years of this same shit and all it does is continue and not a fucking word is said by those who could stop it.

We are so screwed.

We're Leaving But Not Really

You can say whatever you want but when you send three brigades worth (9,700) men to Afghaannystan that's not leaving in my book. And nobody says boo!


While waiting to board the bus home 34 have died this month some by our own partners. You know ones that are on our side. The only thing that changes is that the death toll goes up every time the sun comes up.

Africans Doing Drone Like Work In Somalia

In the evil sense that our Empire is training others to fight kill and die protecting corporate interests so ours don't die. Below is part of what came out of a report that I can't find.

Through deploying African troops to Somalia, “the Obama administration is trying to achieve US military goals with minimal risk of American deaths and scant public debate,” the report added. “Nearly 20 years after US Army Rangers suffered a bloody defeat in Somalia, losing 18 soldiers and two Black Hawk helicopters, Washington is once again heavily engaged in the chaotic country. Only this time, African troops are doing the fighting and dying,” the report said.


Makes no difference who's in charge bama or another the results would be the same. The 1% salivate at the thought of what monetary possibilities that lie ahead in the Dark Continent. They will not be denied.

And few give a shit.
