My step dads in the military and i have alot of frnds in the military andi asked one of them and i asked why did you join the marianes knowing you might die and he said cause im doing it to keep people like you HAlie, free from war and im willing to die to keep you safe, my step dad knows the risk that he takes everytime he goes to war and he still willing to die for Americans so ppl who thinks its the presidents faults they died it isnt they knew what could happen god bless our soldiers
The time is past due for everyone, I mean EVERYONE black, white, young, old, man, woman, child, to protest the failed leaderships with their failed, false promises & empty talk of the future of the people.Talk about apathy!When will someone lead us away from he bullshit this world is continuing to feed us with?Are we mushrooms?Are we to be kept in the dark & fed on bullshit? How long??
My darling friend got gulf war syndrome..moving on cos your life hurts so bad , doesnt mean you have to surrender yourself to the Theatre of war... but I know life can be really bad at home that war seems like the safer option! Think twice before you pat the solider or sailor on the back leaving to fight . My uncles took bullets,, survived. One uncle decided to go to jail instead of going to war &. He eventually got a Medal from the King for being the first man to make artificial limbs
thank you Pearl Jam & Eddie for featuring this video on your PJ channel.. people have to watch this as this message tells us that this may not happen to anyone else!! for the US voters, pls next time think twice when you're electing the world leader.. Pearl Jam tried with their Vote for Change campaign, film & video.. yet the 2nd Bush term was allowed by the voters, means by you if you voted for Bush.. :(
united state is a fake nation , i sorry for her citizens that think they have the most free and democrat country, soon it will go away with those evil dictators you have there if what they design for your future there.
you aamericans are like puppets, you'll go wherever the chairman says you to go. You prefer to think of yourselfs as a totally free nation, but indeed you are slaves,because you don't even try to resist
for all you starryed eyed liberals. if you think obama is going to pull troops from iraq within 16 months, keep dreaming. he's simply going to move them to afghanistan...thats the just war!
That's pretty funny coming from an authoritarian who can do nothing but play follow the leader. You don't have a brain. Do try to use it. Just be a good little soldier. Be sure to invest in Lockheed Martin and General Dynamics for your cut of the blood money. That is what we are fighting for.
I'm so glad to see vets taking on this fight. They shouldn't have to, but I'm so proud of them for not staying quiet. It breaks my heart knowing that these guys come back to a lack of concern by the government responsible for their conditions, visible or not. These are a special generation of soldiers who won't sit quietly while they are abused. For or against the war, I think we can all agree the troops shouldn't be mistreated...and yet they still are. It is criminal.
NOTE: Tomas Young's struggle continues day by day. In late May 2008, he fell into a coma brought on by a clot in his lung. His mother, Cathy, tells us they are working to keep him awake and talking a few hours every day.
Saw this film tonight in L.A. See it if you can. It is powerful. Tomas Young - the veteran at the center of the film - has sustained horrible injuries for the lies told by a few men who never had the nerve to serve their country (Bush, Cheney, Wolfowitz, et al.) and a congress who spat on the constitution the day they passed the Iraq War Resolution effectively abdicating their constitutional DUTY to place the executive branch in check. These are dark times, my friends. Dark times.
There are so many ignorant Americans out there. They can't admit that there is something wrong when staring the truth in the face. The time has come for us to realize that our troops DIDN'T sign up for this. We were not attacked but the Iraqi's, they didn't have WMD's, this war was never declared as per the Constitution our troops swore to uphold. On top of it all they are coming back and getting some sorry ass benefits instead of the red carpet. If you're as angry as I, check out IVAW.
Get a Clue? Read the constitution? You've got to be kidding. He, as I signed up to support and defend the constitution. Not go to war for a bunch of lies. Are you ignorant or do you choose to believe everything you are told to? He knew as I did that we could die. You just don't want to be for a lie. And you certainly have a responsibility to those that would follow you to know the truth!
I dont support the war, and I dont care much for our commander-in-chief.
But THANK YOU TO ALL THE TROOPS who are and have been to Iraq. While the rest of us had the luxury of free speech to debate the war, many of you gave up that right and went as soon as you were called.
on cspan Phile was asked a question the man that his selfes wife walked out on how does he suport him self Phile said he talks for us oh so you pay him to do that no we pay his way but he never answer the question does any one know the miltary pays his way and so does the ones he talks for its big business again war becareful
Dude you guys need to open your eyes! Yes this poor guy got hit and is now in a wheel chair for the rest of his life. But he knew what he was signing up for from the get go! He knew that by signing that contract he was gonna be exposed to that type of shit. We all did! We all knew what we were facing! Lets not feel sorry for this guy, and not pull from the mission! Let's get it done! We are making mad progress in Iraq! Just read blog from people who are over there!
He signed up to defend the constitution. He did not know that there was no connection to 911 but Bush did. He did not know that there was no WMDs, but Bush did. He did not know that Iraq had no connect to terrorist organizations, but Bush did. So, I don't don't feel as sorry for him that sacrificed his ability to walk as much as I feel sorry for you who still believe Bush and are still willing to die for a treasonous bastard!
Better read and comprehend the Constitution asshole. He signed up and knew exactly what he was getting in to. Some men die in wars, some come home wounded and some come back and don't look back. Get a clue.
BRING 'EM HOME! (Bruce Springsteen, SF 2006): watch?v=yApAg0hl490 If you love this land of the free Bring 'em home, bring 'em home Bring them back from overseas Bring 'em home, bring 'em home Now we'll give no more brave young lives Bring 'em home, bring 'em home For the gleam in some fool's eyes Bring 'em home, bring 'em home The church bells will ring with joy Bring 'em home, bring 'em home To welcome our darlin' girls and boys Bring 'em home, bring 'em home

Just today I find out about this movie in PBS
Even though the program show a few clips. I was to sad and mad too. How can these people that are in congress lie behind their teeth.
They should be put in prison. I knew it from the start that this war was bad news another war like Vietnam.

What exactly is "the mission" that gascon1049 supports? Bush parachuted down years ago and said "mission accomplished".
Why can't those who support the continued occupation of Iraq admit that our presence there helps breed new "jihadists" every day.
The America I love does NOT occupy countries that did NOT attack us.
END the occupation of Iraq- now.
