Ask The Relatives Of The 14,427 Russians Killed In Afghanistan

Yes ask them 21 years after the fact what their loved one/ones died for in Afghanistan. My money says nothing will be the answer. For nine years we have died and are dieing there and have escalated the killing. For what? Nothing literally fucking nothing.

Enough and it's long past due to call it like it really is. My blogger friend RZ from Reality Zone explains it so well and I put his entire post up and thank him for his passion in explaining the reality that agree with as well.

Our Soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan: They Died For Nothing !

A blogger friend of mine wrote this in one of the comment sections.

" One Fly said...

It's been to the point for some time to say(and if it pisses people off tough fucking shit because it's the truth)they died for nothing.

August 31, 2010 10:43 AM"


Yes, they died for nothing. And all Americans should be pissed off about this.


Yet the majority is silent. We worry about the Beckster rally. Or we talk about what Palin said or did.


Who really gives a fuck.


They are a side show to the real world. People are dying every single day. Our soldiers are coming back in body bags. Innocent Afghans, Iraqi's, Pakistani's are dead.


We have turned Iraq into a land of rubble. We are trying to turn Pakistan into a failed state to justify our presence. Afghanistan has become our own private killing zone.


We have Mercenaries running all over the region with a license to kill.


We have a CIA hit list which includes American citizens.


We Balkanized one region. Now the powers that be [TPTB] are Balkanizing another.


Our soldiers are dying to preserve an Empire that has no meaning any more.


America is trying to contain, and encroach upon China, and Russia. This is the agenda of the Neocons, and the Neolibs.


We are looking for a boot print in Central Asia in order to control the energy choke points.


Our soldiers are dying for the Globalized Corpotocracy. Not for the freedom or security of our nation.


We have become every thing that we have hated, and fought against.


We were once seen as a shining beacon on a hill.


Now we are seen as a drone falling in on a village.


Shame on America, and Americans for allowing themselves to be brainwashed.


Americans have opened the gates to Fascism. They will welcome it. WHY ?


Because they now prefer security over freedom.


We deserve the best government that Corporations can lease.


We will be under the thumb of the Pentagon to finance [tax] their endless wars without borders.


Shame on the democratic party for still supporting this War of Choice President.


Democrats talk about the republicans being hypocrites.


When in reality they are the biggest hypocrites of all, by backing this president and not holding his puppet strings to the fire.


These so called [dems] are cowards. Every single last spineless one of them are COWARDS.


Shame on the American people for supporting a Congress that supports, and finances these endless wars.


So go right ahead and just say it.


THEY DIED FOR NOTHING ! ! !


To all the cowards out there that are still backing this war. [You are backing it if you are silent.]


"Let me ask you one question Is your money that good Will it buy you forgiveness Do you think that it could I think you will find When your death takes its toll All the money you made Will never buy back your soul. And I hope that you die And your death'll come soon I will follow your casket In the pale afternoon And I'll watch while you're lowered Down to your deathbed And I'll stand over your grave 'Til I'm sure that you're dead.------- Bob Dylan 1963

Bama Gonna Sell More Of His Soul Tonight

President Barack Obama will announce the formal end of combat operations in Iraq during a speech to the nation tonight, but the declaration won't close the book on Fort Carson's involvement in the 7-year, 5-month, 11-day-old war.

It's good a bunch are leaving-you betcha there.

The rest is not even close to good.

While 80 troops recently returned to Fort Carson from Iraq, 3,400 members of the Fort Carson-based 3rd Brigade Combat Team are still posted there, conducting "stability operations" until March.


The Fort Carson troops who remain in Iraq are among 50,000 U.S. military and 70,000 contract personnel scheduled to remain until December 2011.


They aren't leaving then and that's a fact.

Soldiers deploying to Iraq after tonight will be be participating in a wonderful catchy feel good atmosphere called  OPERATION NEW DAWN.

What a bunch of pure fucking horse shit!

It's What's Called Tough Shit

Well it seems some Iraqi's are angry the US is removing it's combat forces but leaving 50,000 to advise and assist the populace.

Well I hear you people and I have an idea how you feel about that and understand the reasons for that anger.

But I'm angry too! Been that way for a long time and anyone who knows the truth about this country's relationship with yours since the year 2000 is probably just as angry as I.

Being angry didn't help my cause just like it's not going to help yours.

You need to go after the pieces of shit that are responsible for you being so angry.

The treasonous duo of the Chimp and his dark master Cheney and their compadres of death. I'm all with you on that endeavor if it's pursued and as stated on many occasions I'll be honored to pull the trip rope on what could be the worlds worst killers of humanity.

To me having 50,000 Americans in your country is by no means "leaving" so much of the original anger remains. You being annoyed that the fighters are getting out won't change a thing.

I am truly sorry for your country but for both of us it's the same---tough shit!

Will the anger be replaced with niceness to hopefully reach out to the other side to open a dialog?

No way-never will there be a pass given for what happened during the Bush Reign of Terror-never.

Tough shit and I don't care anymore if people dislike me for that stance or for reminding them of that when appropriate.

Calling Bull Shit On The 13 Suicide Bombers

No-I do not believe that 13 Afghanny's  killed were all suicide bombers. Not for a second.

Afghan and coalition soldiers killed more than 30 insurgents, including 13 would-be suicide bombers, as they fought off assaults on two military bases and government buildings in eastern Afghanistan, the NATO-led International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) said on Sunday. Bull shit there too-that's us saying this shit. We're the main players here fuckers.

They may have killed 30 or what have you but I stand by the bull shit because they do not send suicider's out to be killed like this. They haven't before and they didn't do it this time. This is propafuckingganda!

One thing for sure is that seven more of ours got knocked off this morning and that's 14 for the weekend and for fucking what America??.

Did this two weeks ago. Fun trip and these things were impressive. I was around this area (one way in one way out) for five hours or so and on the way out saw a car.

The Closed Door Nutter Event In Da Boat

Colorado voters respond to conference of top right-wing strategists, politicians on Social Security and Medicare in Steamboat Springs


FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Saturday, August 28, 2010

CONTACT: Kjersten Forseth at 719-641-4674



Steamboat Springs: ProgressNow Colorado, the state’s largest online progressive advocacy organization, called on top right-wing strategists and politicians gathered in this beautiful mountain resort to abandon their plans to privatize Social Security and end Medicare.



With very little media coverage, the conservative Steamboat Institute organized the weekend “Freedom Conference,” featuring speakers such as Nevada state Sen. Sharron Angle, former top Bush strategist Karl Rove, and Grover Norquist—the man who coined the term ‘drown government in a bathtub.’



“These are the same ideologues who toured the country in 2005 with President Bush, telling seniors how great it would be to invest their guaranteed Social Security benefit with Wall Street,” said Kjersten Forseth, executive director of ProgressNow Colorado. “Thank goodness the American people didn’t take their advice then.



“Today, these same leaders on the right have gathered in a secluded Colorado mountain resort to plot the next step in their plans to hand Social Security over to Wall Street and end Medicare—with renewed confidence after almost two years of blatant falsehoods and disinformation to make the American people afraid.”

At noon on Saturday, Colorado voters gathered before the Stamboat Grand with a simple message: “Hands off Social Security. Hands off Medicare.” There are a range of progressive options for preserving the guaranteed benefit of Social Security and Medicare without surrendering them to Wall Street and the health insurance industry--the simplest of which is to allow Bush's irresponsible tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans to expire.



“Preserving Social Security and Medicare for future generations is what Americans want, not a Karl Rove shell game,” concluded Forseth. "Social Security needs to be reinforced for our children and grandchildren, and continue to serve as a safeguard against the ups and downs of Wall Street. For so many millions of working families counting on Social Security and Medicare when they retire, it's not a game."

The truth of these matters lies with people on the outside of these closed events that cost hundreds to get in. Of course media is not allowed in any shape or form when these people start opening their pie holes. I'm sure it will be even bigger and better next year.

Happiness Is Having A New Gun

For the Army because what they have now just isn't killing it good enough.

“This is an historic event. We have not done a carbine competition in our lifetimes,” The Army has launched a dual strategy designed to give you a more accurate, durable and lethal weapon that will be the mainstay for the next 40 years.

I have to differ here on what's historic. Seems to me there's never been a problem killing the other side when needed. Not only those on the other side but mothers,children and other innocents as well.

Innocents-you know the ones that didn't do anything but yet they were killed. Maybe the guns wouldn't be wearing out if they weren't used for that.

Historically we are in the longest "Wars" since this nation was formed. For history's sake I'd like to see the people get their way and leave these places like all of us voted for.

But we love our guns and killing way too much to do that. Whore Beck says we are returning to the non-existent sky being who must love even more the same things because there ain't a fucking one of those slugs that showed up yesterday that calls for the withdrawal of our troops from our war theatres.

But they sure as hell would go along with the samo ya know ya see there as it becomes even clearer how screwed we really are.

Dressed Up Talibans

Dozens some dressed as American soldiers attacked two bases getting inside one before being stopped. One young person was killed. Here's what bothers me.

The response to the attack was swift and deadly. Afghan security forces, along with U.S. troops, killed about 15 insurgents at FOB Salerno and six more at FOB Chapman, while three others were killed by an airstrike after they were spotted fleeing the scene of the attacks, NATO said.

You fuckers-who do you think you're trying to bullshit?

You just don't go out and find these guys just like that. If it were that easy we would have killed all of them long before now.

They went out and shot anything that moved! That's what the hell went on.

And another thing don't blur the reality and say Nato said this shit. It's us-we're the ones!

Glenn Beck supports organized labor?

Glenn Beck and his followers have certainly not done much research. Attaching themselves to MLK means they are celebrating the life of a man who fought for many things, including organized labor, didn't realize Beck was such a fan, his boss, Rupert Murdoch certainly isn't.

Wikipedia

On March 29,1968,King went to Memphis,Tennessee in support of the black sanitary public works employees,represented by AFSCME Local 1733, who had been on strike since March 12 for higher wages and better treatment. In one incident, black street repairmen received pay for two hours when they were sent home because of bad weather, but white employees were paid for the full day

Dr. King was assassinated a few days later.

How Much

I don't know about where you live but this after noon at a roadside stand these

two tomatoes and two peaches not grown here cost $5. Was actually 5 10 and I got to slide on the dime. They taste pretty good but I don't know about $5 worth.

Note-the peaches are sweet the tomato I tried is mediocre at best.
