Iraq Vets Face Trial for Antiwar Protest-2/2

[millstone7201]

I'm glad someone else brought this up!!! Our troops made an "Oath" to serve something that does NOT exist! "...foreign OR DOMESTIC...? Our Constitution is NOT in FOREIGN land YET it's said that our military cannot FIGHT on our OWN soil??? Wouldn't this be an OXYMORON??? Our troops were DOOPT!! The OATH should NOT stand, therefore? BRING ALL OUR TROOPS HOME & send them to D.C. to CLEAN HOUSE & DEFEND OUR CONSTITUTION against these "SECRET SOCIETIES" as John F. Kennedy warned us about NOW!!!!!!

[brianmoran1973]

You can be charged for opposing war but not charged for waging an illegal war of agression,,.,Its hard to think of a more screwed up society

[nofxmike06]

morality is irrelevant to legalistic people.

[nofxmike06]

@nofxmike06 I hope someone sees the irony in this statement.

[nofxmike06]

"I, _____, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God."

Democracy Now-uses the name "Democracy" --to attract young people who know NOTHING about true Democracy- , they should be called "Socialism Now"--this organization is linked to terrorists and extreme Muslim's throughout the US--they are traitors to Democracy and hide behind its very name. They are treasonous and should be dealt with that way.

Nice little "Flash Dance" wristlet cupcake.

As the late, well-read, NON-propagandized, NON- public schooled George Carlin said, "This country was bought and paid for a LONG time ago."

I work at the V.A. & I KNOW the PROPAGANDA you are being fed on the "news" is TOTAL CRAP. People are DYING - Americans & INNOCENT Iraqis. We have NO BUSINESS in Iraq. READ THE CONSTITUTION PLEASE, Americans! The Founders said to STAY OUT of entangling alliances & the INTERNAL AFFAIRS of other countries - be FRIENDS with all countries & TRADE. WAKE UP, U.S!

[colburnpclark]

The problem is when the stupid, idol, rich get tired trading and see taking is easier.

[Willyx777x]

these ex soilders r being sucked into the liberal bullshit machine that calls all war "evil" and r buying into the "not your soilders!" shit! theyre r plenty of soilders and marines who r proud of wat theyre doing. these vets r just being suckered. oh and i do respect their service to our country.

[JSparkleZ2]

Don't be a fuckin tool, these veterans are entitled to their opinion whatever that may be...

These guys clearly are against the war...

Maybe other soldiars are for it, but these particular men are not and it's their right to openly protest it...

Don't downplay it or try to act like they're being manipulated... Most veterans as of late are against this pointless non-sense...

[amazingjecklebrother]

oh yeah its because my friend was forced to kill a 10 year old kid in iraq hows that for messed up

[amazingjecklebrother]

my friend was in iraq and now he gets the joy of taking anti homicidal pills everyday because of his goodness his mind is all kinds of screwed up now

[BrutusCass]

The people need to embrace the change yes, but they can only truly do this if they face the facts, and if they are swept under the carpet.

[gkhelsinki]

god bless these veterans. they also have a right to want peace. nothing un-patriotic about that.

[BrutusCass]

I agreed there is Nothing at all un-patriotic, and when you consider that Iraq IS an illegal war, by refusing he was in fact up holding US (of course bush has blurred things) and International law.

[hamou87]

there is real hell for all of them

[ResearchX]

These vets are going to have to realize that the enemy is not in Iraq. The enemy is the illuminati. These cops are corrupt and serve the NWO.

[Puk202]

And those numbers don't include the wifes, husbands, kids, mothers and fathers that are severely affected!

[ekatbat]

It seems odd that the news broadcaster actually let's these people talk without interuppting them every 10 seconds like the mainstream media broadcaster's do.While watching this I was thinking am I bored with this because no screaming or shouting?

[beautyofbeing]

You're used to corporate "journalism", Democracy Now is independent journalism, what news SHOULD be :)

[raouldeming]

Democracy Now 90 miles from being Castro's state run news agency.

[dirtymics]

Disgusting but not surprising how little coverage the mainstream media have given this.

[ohnoesfedzilla]

holy shit 18 vets a day

[hipmama715]

18 veterans a day. Do the math. That means 558 veterans kill themselves every month. Why isn't this in the news? Aren't they worth the coverage, or have their sacrifices been all in vain? How is this in any way being supportive of our troops?

[dellsprospects22]

they don't want us to RIOT

[Rasputin433]

...is he wearing eye liner?

I know that sounds really stupid but...I think he is

[Partisancheese]

Great Vet day post! It's disturbing how vets become essentially irrelevant after their service. It's almost like the US uses them then throws them away. Maybe it's just our consumer culture....

[medliberty]

Where does he get the idea that Obama is against the war? Not from any of his speeches nor from the Democratic platform. Obama wants to expand the war in Afghanistan, reduce it slightly in Iraq by leaving 60,000 soldiers there, start another war with Iran and possibly move against Russia. So how does Obama represent any change?

[greatbroad]

OMG 18 suicides a day...

[Irtidad]

These guys are very honorable.
