Where veterans pose issues and solutions then document actions
Wars require no taxes
How do we know that wars are not financed with taxes?
Well, you cannot pay taxes with dollar bills that the IRS
(Imaginary Revenue Scum) said "are not dollars" or with
credit and thd Fed said their system of plunder "works
only with credit" that would keep its value "if there were
fewer people bidding against each other."

The Associated Press (Associated Prevaricaters) lie about
total american deaths in Iraq. They want us to believe we
have been losing only 2 men per day for 2,035 days for a
total of 4189 deaths www.morpix.biz/iraq2
The Department of Veterans Affairs about 2 months ago
said the total was 73,000, more like 36 per day. www/morpix.biz/iraq

The Itch in Joe Lieberman’s Gitmo Finger
Senator Joe Lieberman of Connecticut may be the most destructive politician in the United States. Combining the worst ideas of the right, the left, and the religious, he essentially seeks to punitively tax the world in order to bomb it for the sake of Israel. Despite Lieberman’s “dual” loyalty — in quotes because I suspect [...]I Have the Answer
NPR (All Things Considered) is devoting an entire hour of programming today to the war in Afghanistan. The show was prefaced with a comment something like “We don’t have all the answers.” Well, I have the answer: Get out! Get out now before one more Afghan dies, before one more U.S. soldier dies, before one [...]German DM Mentions the War… in Afghanistan
An outrageous thing has happened today in Germany: the Defense Minister has used the word “war” to describe the, uh, war in Afghanistan. As Justin Raimondo might say: Germans are shocked — shocked! You see, these people burdened by national collective memories of WWII thought they were sending peacekeepers to Afghanistan — sure, sure, armed [...]Jesse James Calls for Ban on Robbing Trains
CNN headline: Karzai calls for unity, end to corruption in Afghanistan It is astounding to see the western media treat Karzai like a legitimate winner and someone who has any credibility to fight corruption. This is akin to how the Soviet media treated the election “victories” of Stalin’s puppets in East Europe. At least we now have [...]America’s Next Top Nazi
If this isn’t the craziest thing you read today, then you must be scrubbing graffiti off the walls of a padded cell: While the sixth season of the fashion reality show “Project Runway” is fast-approaching its climax, it’s become a running joke in my house that the show’s host, German supermodel Heidi Klum, would have made [...]TRUTHOUT NEWS FEED
Gay Rights Go Global
London - A new bill before the Ugandan parliament proposes the death penalty for “aggravated homosexuality” and “serial offenders.” A sentence of life imprisonment will be imposed for touching a person with homosexual intent. Membership in gay organizations, advocacy of gay human rights and the provision of condoms or safer sex advice to gay people will result in seven years jail for “promoting” homosexuality. Failing to report violators to the police within 24 hours would incur three years behind bars.
When a Parent Is Away at War
In honor of Veterans Day.
Veterans Day is a time to honor those who have served our country. For clinicians at Children’s Hospital Boston, it’s also a time to think about the children whose parents are away from home, serving their country. What does having a parent at war mean for a child? We talked to Children’s psychiatrist Stuart Goldman, MD, about how to help a child cope with this stressful time.
What impact does having a parent away at war have on a child?
Ivy League Liberal Elitism Will Make Sarah Palin President - How Only Union Organizing Can Prevent It
Conservatives win many votes saying that liberals are elitist. I am here to tell you that the liberal movement is indeed very elitist. Its organization's staffs are composed mainly of Ivy leaguers whose life experiences are dramatically different than the 70 percent of Americans that never graduate from college. Very few of them have any actual experience living with or knowing working-class people. As a graduate of Bucknell, I still feel out of a place and most glaringly underdressed when I get in a room with the Ivy Leaguers running our movement.
Listening to Veterans
Wartime is a highly emotional time for everyone caught up in the fighting. These emotions remain high long after the battles. Among the most emotional of times for war veterans is Veterans Day. After the parades and solemn speeches, war's often angry turmoil and hidden injuries still haunt many veterans and their families.
Supporting our troops requires more than welcoming them home, but also listening and responding to their concerns. A big concern for many soldiers and their families is how to handle the transition back to civilian life. A big concern for many older veterans and their loved ones is how to handle the emotional distress of flashbacks set off by current events.
A Morally Bankrupt Military: When Soldiers and Their Families Become Expendable
The military operates through indoctrination. Soldiers are programmed to develop a mindset that resists any acknowledgment of injury and sickness, be it physical or psychological. As a consequence, tens of thousands of soldiers continue to serve, even being deployed to combat zones like Iraq and/or Afghanistan, despite persistent injuries. According to military records, over 43,000 troops classified as "nondeployable for medical reasons" have been deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan nevertheless.
