Hungry for peace: Vietnam vet fasts against Afghan war

[tjohn1986]

What's wrong with this fool? Most troops I knew dreamt of being in combat. I would have given a limb to have been part of the original invasion. Nothing wrong with Afghanistan war!!

[pammyoneto]

@tjohn1986 There is a lot wrong with it.

[CaptainNPM]

Im sorry about this Vet and his health disorder, but it´s not excuse to RUN from wars. Bunch of cowards. Some Viet Vets (at the end of war) kill officers and refuse orders because they was chiken, hippies and heroin addicts ... mother fuckers.

[rushkagon]

And the wars go on

As they've always done

And always will

And the fools die young

Our world in the hands of bankers

And gangsters

And their MILITARY BUSINESS MACHINES

Armed with all tools of their trick and treat trade

The CFR, the RIIA, the WTO, the IMF and WHO.

Like no one in the US has ever taken a bribe. LOL They get bribes from Lobby groups all the time. Before they accuse others they should clean up their own corruption. I wouldn't give the US the sweat off my tushie. Seems there was more to steal then just Oil, Gas, Heroin and the Pipeline.

[Shadowbear1955]

Significant deposits of copper, iron, gold, oil and gas, and coal -- as well as precious gems such as emeralds and rubies are largely untapped in Afghanistan. Seems the West is upset because they are not getting the contracts to mine this stuff. Seems the US is accusing leaders of bribery by giving the contracts to other countries.

[GlobalAlternateMedia]

Too many money goes around in wars. This wont work.

He can starve himself all he wants, but unfortunately the politicians won't even consider his position. If they don't care about the millions of people that have died they won't care about him. He'll just be another statistic to them.

[SMOKEWEED1776]

WOW god bless that man...

[0bodobod0]

now that that's over let's try to implement a strategy that will actually have consequence.

[shineurs2]

NO MORE FALSE WARS!

[shineurs2]

Oliver North was just on a MSM this am and said that he has never heard more dissent from the marines and army soldiers...adding that they don't know why they are over there when the plan is not to win...i do not know of even one soldier who considers barry as their president...they have a true disdain for him!

[SuperTankT95]

Good man.

[abarzilai664]

It's more a publicity stunt to get attention.

[igorvasilevsky]

US veterans can talk and do whatever they want, but in totalitarian american dictatorship their opinion means nothing.

[abarzilai664]

At least jounalists and activists and liberal preists don't get shot dead as in your country.

[igorvasilevsky]

But it's USA, which is pretending on "beacon of democracy" *oops* Loser)

LOL John F. Kennedy, Robert Kennedy, Malcolm X, Martin Luther King - were killed in USA by political reasons.

And you (again trying to change theme) talking about journalists, who were mostly killed by neo-nazi gangs (who are AGAINST today's leadership), as a fault of Russia? LOL Also you have no facts about it, as usual. + you added priest in this list.. how poor, immoral idiot.

FAIL, loser. FAIL)

[igorvasilevsky]

I even don't talk about 9/11... Imbecile..

And another fact for you: biggest number of killed journalists are in Iraq, where US is "building democracy"..

LOL all these things are showing that USA is a total crap and shitty place.

#1 in total crimes, prisoners, thieves, rapes (all this is official statistics).. Guantanamo, secret CIA prisons, and on and on and on... LOSERS.

[adkinsjr]

lol, it's funny that people actually believe these publicity stunts are honorable. Let's all pat him on the back and praise him for his noble stance against the evil government! I'm sure they're gonna pull those troops out right away now right? This looney tune will be giving up any day now, his 15 minutes will be forgotten, and the war will still be going on, he'll be back at home EATING again.

BTW, where was he during the Bush Administration? 'o.O'

[LevisLovely1]

that is just going to be a slow death...they will not relent.

[EbolaV1rus]

Praise the Lord for what this brave man is doing.

[szol2005]

Respect!

[elucidative]

If these Satanic bastards in the W.H. enjoy death and misery and all the other strife from war, what good is it going to do if you kill yourself in protest? War is a racket. They make war to make money and unless you remove the greedy bastards your going to have war.

Well at least he is getting attention from R/T but it is the people that have to stop the war not the filthy, scum, horrid, disgusting, pukeface Pelosi and Obama.

[troglodyte3344]

that guy is going to die of starvation. they arent leaving that war.

[IlluminatiSeer]

good for him, many should do this

live free or die

[GodBlesstheWorld2008]

Hero...

[UndefeatedArmy09]

Why dont all Soldiers just refuse to go to Afghanistan.Fair play to this guy.
