He is a great American...NOT!!!

He is a coward and a disgrace to the uniform. I'm ashamed of you Watada and you are not good enough to be an American or from Hawaii.

I take it you are one of those useful idiots (to quote Stalin) who agree to invade and kill whomever the US Government tells you to invade and kill, even when the US Government is caught lying to create the pretense for war out of thin air.

Frankly, I am ashamed of you for not understanding that under the Uniform Code of Military Justice, all soldiers not only have a right but a duty to refuse to obey illegal orders.

Cowards follow orders and flags. Men of real courage follow moral principle.

I feel that the statementI made several hours ago was to harsh and extreme. Your parents are not resposible for your actions. I still stand behind the statement I made against Lt Watada. . Another thing is that going into Iraq prevented that goverment from making weapons of mass destruction. We prevented that country from becoming haven for those that want to destroy us. .

Thomas Jefferson said that the highest duty of any citizen is to keep themselves fully informed so that they can make good decisions. Clearly, you have failed that duty in that you are not at all informed of the reality behind the government claims. Iraq was not making any weapons of mass destruction. Nor were they aiding Al Qaeda. Iraq had nothing to do with 9-11. It was all lies to fool dummies, and you bought all of it.

Amen!

Every soldier in the US military takes an oath. That oath includes an promise to disobey illegal or immoral orders.

Lt. Ehren Watada kept that oath. It's easy for armchair referees to scream "coward", but the truth is that Lt. Watada has shown a great deal of courage standing up against an illegal war and an out-of-control government; far more courage than that shown by his detractors, who shiver in their boots at the mere thought of questioning the war.

A few weeks ago I commented that Lt. Watada was a coward for not going to Iraq. After much thought I have come to the conclusion that the goverment should start to listen to him and the other members of the military that have done their tours over there. We are wasting our most valuable resource, and that is the lives of our young men and women in the military.

I wish you and your family the best of luck.

No one wants to attack you there is no enemy.Fear is our enemy the more you let it in the more you can be controlled.The people behind the fear campain are the enemy, the government, the central banks, and all of the corporations that put profit above human needs.

all of our sins begin by our monetary policy of debt slavery that is being spread throughout the world. the nwo is not a fairy tale but a reality of centuries of financial conquest that started in england almost 400 years ago and is now being spread throughout the world.

Watada is totally courageous!
