"Military men are dumb, stupid animals to be used as pawns for foreign policy." Henry Kissinger





Even more interesting is the process by which a young man's parents, who purportedly love him, can be induced to send him off to war to his death.


By the time his son must go to war, father (with jelly for a backbone) will slam a gun into junior's hand before father will risk the censure of his peers, or make a hypocrite of himself by crossing the investment he has in his own personal opinion or self-esteem. Junior will go to war or father will be embarrassed. So junior will go to war, the true purpose not withstanding.


Sound like anyone familiar ?

Well if the SHTF you wouldn't be my first choice as a wing man...

Yes life means more to me than it once did. [It's called learning from Experience] Unlike some who just type online and regurgitate what they've heard or read and who are full of themselves which do Nothing more than type on keyboards and spew their version of moral excrement online, while some of us have been out in the $Htick the difference is real world experience. What have you really defended lately besides your opinion online or possibly halitosis from all the fecal matter you excrete?

So please put away you little morality bat. It neither bothers nor scares me. All you'll do is hurt yourself trying to wield it while making yourself out a fool. Go pick on some Girl-scouts they're more your speed and mental equals...

There is plenty of AHA to spare...

Hmmm.... consider the source there and perhaps a little more research on that on your part would have been in order. Here is a record of KISSINGER'S military career. en.wikipedia.org...

You show a remarkable lack of respect for someone you don't know and are guilty of an even grosser generalisation than some of those you seek to vilify.

But then again it's very easy being a cyber warrior isn't it.

I could care less if Kissinger was the most decorated soldier of all time ! Doesn't alter the fact that soldiers are brainwashed Pawns whose LOYALTY is to the army NOT to their family !

The Shah was a Monarch, he wasnt elected, Mossadegh was. First having been elected by the Parliament in a similar fashion to Canada and the UK, and then held elections where he advocated the right of the uneducated to vote...

I would liken it to the British system where there is a Queen and an elected body. I believe that to this day, elected representatives in both the UK and Canada swear allegiance to the Queen.

Furthermore, during the overthrow of their democratically elected leader, the Shah had already fled to Italy, only to return after the CIA had secured Mossadegh.

Whether you view him as democratically elected or not, the point of my post was to illustrate that the US's assault on the Middle East began very early. The "war on terror" is a fraud. Many of these terrorist boogeymen have been US allies or CIA assets.

And I continue to wonder how so many corporate media, establishment, thoughtless, mantras end up on a site like ATS whose motto is to "deny ignorance"...

Open and free board mate, i'll 'but in' where I like, don't really care what you think about that.

Now if me pointing out that you are guilty of one of the grossest generalisations I've ever seen and shown a complete lack of respect for a fellow ATS member offends you, well, I don't really give a toss about that as well.

That you are entitled to your opinion is without doubt, some of it is actually well reasoned and well argued - irrelevant of whether I agree with it or not, just a little bit of civility might not go amiss.

Heed the words of someone who knew the truth in 1935 , here we are in 2011 and your still ignorant


In November 1935 Butler wrote an article for the socialist magazine Common Sense: "I spent 33 years and four months in active military service and during that period I spent most of my time as a high class muscle man for Big Business, for Wall Street and the bankers. In short, I was a racketeer, a gangster for capitalism. I helped make Mexico and especially Tampico safe for American oil interests in 1914. I helped make Haiti and Cuba a decent place for the National City Bank boys to collect revenues in. I helped in the raping of half a dozen Central American republics for the benefit of Wall Street. I helped purify Nicaragua for the International Banking House of Brown Brothers in 1902-1912. I brought light to the Dominican Republic for the American sugar interests in 1916. I helped make Honduras right for the American fruit companies in 1903. In China in 1927 I helped see to it that Standard Oil went on its way unmolested."

And losing our tempers with each other on here won't change that one little bit.
I've been there.
But discussing things in a reasoned and civil manner may, just may, help spread a little understanding and appreciation.
And from small acorns my friend.......

You're welcome.

I think What bothers people the most is when their long held cherished views are challenged. Sometimes the TRUTH is stranger than fiction. Some rebel and lose their tempers because of FEAR.

You are carrying too much anger to be very rational.You stand against these people who have served their country,And yet your avatar is a man who is about to shoot someone from ambush.
You preach non violence and yet your name is doomzilla.Apparently you are a person full of contradictions and a great deal of anger.About what are you angry?These people are just expessing their opinions and yet you attack them with great anger because they can see the world with more open eyes than you because they have been there,and you have not.It seems to me that your cries of nonviolence are a sham as you are clearly a violent person.
