The BoBo of The Week Award

H/T to Greg at 454monte.com for bringing this to my attention.  This guy was a contributor to The BoBo Carnival of Politics.  Greg did a little more digging around on his blog and found this “wonderful” post.

Fuck the troops!

Okay – other than 9/11 deniers I really really hate these unpatriotic passivist little twits.  The one’s in that group that I detest even more are those bastards that dare to lambast our military members.  As a third generation servicemember (now ex-servicemember) and having a step-son currently serving in the Army – these assholes really rub me wrong.  So – it is for his post – and I’m sure it will boil the blood of some of my readers – this dickhead gets this week’s BoBo of The Week Award.  Even though he wrote this piece in May of this year – the fact I just found it still makes it a candidate for the weekly award.

I’m going to skip past his intro into his rant against the troops – it just contains bullshit about him being a long-haired hippy freak in 1990 when he was protesting the first Gulf war.  Funny – I thought the hippies was the 70′s generation?  But – that just proves my point – he’s an idiot.  He goes in to a diatribe about the use of that oxymoron (and moronic) use of “Oppose the war: Support the Troops” and why they chose then (and continue now) to use it.  Sorry, dude – that slogan does not fool any pro-military pro-troop individual or our troops.  So – from there – let’s get in to this thing:

It always bothered me, though, this “support the troops” idea. Sure, it was a smart strategic play, but in stark conflict to the rest of what we thought we were doing. We were here to bring the truth to an ignorant, deluded or sleeping public, and the whole truth, nothing but. That truth must have necessarily included the realization that these amorphous “troops” we were enjoined to support were actually individual, thinking, morally responsible men and women. It must have included the knowledge that each and every “troop” currently engaged in mass murder in our names had volunteered. And we knew, as they should have, that the murderous, destructive, obscene organization they volunteered to serve, hadn’t conducted a legitimate “defense of America” since at least WWII, and maybe as far back as the War of 1812, depending on whose Pearl Harbor narrative you believe.

This just proves his ignorance and disdain for both our country and our military as well as the fact that he remains blind to the ills of this world.  He blames this country for what is wrong with this world.  He doesn’t see that terrorism and islamofascim are the true evil ideologies that have been at play for thousands of years.  Even Thomas Jefferson had to deal with those evil bastards who wanted, even then, to destroy our country.  Not only have we been in defense of America for the last 200+ years, we have also been in defense of democracy around the world fighting against these assholes who want nothing else but to kill you for not being muslim.

His assertion that WWII was the last time we were defending America proves he didn’t and still doesn’t understand communism and the proliferation thereof of that ideology.  We were in Korea and Viet Nam to help defend democracy in those countries that were invaded by their northern communist neighbors.  America is an ally to ALL Democracies you idiot.  To defend the democracies of other nations is to defend the democracy of the United States.  If you allow communism, socialism, and islamofascim to take hold in democratic countries – it is harmful and is a threat to the United States.

They weren’t conscripted, they weren’t shanghaied, they weren’t tricked into signing up and donning the uniform and picking up the gun. They sought out the role, they agreed to follow orders, they signed the papers, and nowhere along the way did they somehow become transformed from individual human beings, morally responsible for their individual acts of violence and destruction into those collectively romanticized “troops”. Some small number said, “I didn’t sign up for this,” and did the only moral thing possible, which was to desert. The rest marched freely onto the planes and ships and deployed, the willing agents of empire. Certainly in many, the thought was there afterward: “We didn’t sign up for that,” but still they went, perhaps finding their own moral cover in the notion they’d been tricked. Likely, most found no moral problem with going at all.

Now – he’s just starting to warm up now.  This type of downward look over his nose at the troops and those who proudly serve is just the springboard for what is to come.  He somehow things those of us who serve our country proudly were “tricked” in to doing so.  He’s another one of those idiots who refer to this great republic an “empire.”  You are one twisted piece of shit moron!  Not one individual was “tricked” in to serving this country.  They took the oath that specifically states they would protect our country and our constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic.  They knew during basic training when they were being taught hand-to-hand combat with bayonets they would have to fight and kill someone someday to defend this country.  They knew when they were learning how to shoot their M-16′s accurately into silhouette targets that someday they would have to fire a live round in to an enemy against our democracy.  They knew as they were conducting house-to-house infiltration tactics during basic training they would some day be asked to do the same thing in a foreign land.  Those people who you say decided one day to change their mind and say to themselves “I didn’t sign up for this” were cowards.  They knew full well what they signed up for.  These are people I wouldn’t want sitting in the trenches with me any way because they can’t be trusted.

Since you have never experienced taking the oath, basic training, military weapons training, and self-defense as a part of military COMBAT training – you have no freakin’ idea what they had in their hearts as they turned coward.  Plain and simple – they are cowards – not individuals who suddenly had a “moral” epiphany.  Sure, that’s what cowards turn to because they know they will be embraced by the likes of pussies like you – but – there was nothing about their decision to become cowards that had anything to do with a sudden moral understanding – it was the fact they became scared shitless.  EVERY member of the military is told in basic training that no matter their “job” in any branch of the service whether it be a cook, janitor, supply specialist, motor pool technician, or aviation technician – they may be required to pick up a gun and defend themselves and this country.  No matter their job – they are soldiers first.  There is NO excuse for those who at the time of enlistment KNEW they were going to be Infantry, Paratrooper, Gunner, Tank, weapons specialist, explosive technician, military police, etc – without a freakin doubt they would be trained to be killers.  Those who turned coward have absolutely no excuse and no way to possibly defend the idea they were “tricked.”  You’re a moron if you believe them!

Unlike Gulf War I, though, Gulf War II, freshly turned five years old, is an occupation. It is an obviouslyobvious to anyone that a crime had been committed there. A massive, inexcusable, inhuman, monstrous, treasonous crime. immoral war launched on the flimsiest of concocted excuses and conducted with the most sinister of aims. The history of Gulf War I, the suffering inflicted on Iraq by a decade of sanctions, the horror of depleted uranium weapons residues and unexploded landmines and other ordnance from the first attack should have made it

Ummm…what?  In the first paragraph you begin to make a case why we shouldn’t be in Iraq – then in the second paragraph you point out all the reasons why we are in Iraq – and – you even call the crimes of humanity committed by Saddam Hussein against his own people as “A massive, inexcusable, inhuman, monstrous, treasonous crime.”  We didn’t use any nuclear weapons in Gulf 1 – so – that had to be Saddam’s.  We didn’t use landmines in Gulf 1 – so – those must have been Saddam’s as well.  The only suffering of the people in Iraq was at the hands of Saddam.  While the U.N., Russia, France, Germany, and China continued trading with Iraq – Saddam kept building palaces rather than provide for his people.  In fact, it was Saddam who gassed 100′s of thousands of his own people.  It was Saddam’s boys who had the “rape squads.”  It was Saddam’s Guard forces that tortured Iraqi’s who spoke out against Saddam.

So – like I said  – you must have been building a case as to why we are in Iraq – because – everything you stated was not at the hands of the U.S..  There were no sanctions against Iraq!  Sure – while the U.N. put it on paper – Saddam and Iraq continued all trading as usual – they just didn’t have access to U.S. markets.  Dude, before you start writing stupid shit like this – you should at least get your facts straight.

And yet, most of the military personnel that have served in the current conflict up to the present weren’t in the military for the first. They signed up, willingly. If they didn’t know the history of what the US military actually did for the prior fifty years, flag-waving nonsense and Cold War turned War on Terror hysteria aside, their foolishness should not excuse them. If they learned nothing from the lessons of Korea, Vietnam, Grenada, Panama, Lebanon or other places that the empire had been sticking its nose and its guns into, well, we should let neither ignorance nor willful blindness be an excuse. Unjust, illegal wars do not just happen by themselves. They are the sum total of millions of individual decisions by millions of individually responsible people to obey, topped by whatever dark cabal is giving the orders for the week.

Okay – I’ll at least concede the point that those on the ground may not have been involved in GW1 – but – the senior NCO’s and Officers involved sure were.  It was only 12 years between the end of GW1 to the beginning of GW2.  And..yes..they signed up willingly because they UNDERSTAND what is at stake.  They don’t walk around this planet with blinders on blaming this country for any personal failures.  You my friend have failed in life and did not amount to what you had hoped to be – so – you need to blame someone – you blame America.  Once you start blaming America because you are a total waste of human flesh – by extension – it is America’s fault for all this is wrong around the world.  Don’t put our troops in the same pathetic category as yourself.

Apparently, you are the one who have not learned the “lessons of Korea, Viet Nam, Grenada, Panama, Lebanon or other places.”  Hmm – Korea – communist invasion of N.Korea in to S. Korea; Viet Nam – communist invasion of N.VN in to S.VN; Grenada – Communist Cuba invasion and take over of the democratic government to include execution of their prime minister; Panama – Panama declared war on U.S., Noriega lost the election and refused to step down, Noriega’s goon squad killed a U.S. Navy seaman then raped his wife, Noriega’s goon squad killed killed a U.S. marine, and Panama was involved in trafficking millions of tons of drugs to the U.S. and refused to stop; Lebanon – US troops were just a part of an international peace keeping force – we were not involved in any way with the Lebanese civil war going on.  There was no reason for them to target and kill our marines and French peace keeping soldiers.  And…those other places?  Like Afghanistan?  The communist Russia invasion in to that country?  Like Kosovo?  The communist russian influence over the Serbs and Croat – you mean that one?  Or…Somalia – the U.S. acting as peace keeping forces after the attempted genocide?

I don’t know what you’re trying to get at here.  In every one of these instances we have come to the aid of our allies at their request.  I am so sick and tired of you pansy-assed whiners referring to this country as an empire.  I suppose if someone were raping your sister – you wouldn’t help her would you?  You’re such a fucking waste you would shit in your pants first – then explain to your sister later how it was her fault that she got raped.  We are a very powerful nation.  We have the capability and capacity to help those less fortunate nations when they are under attack by larger nations.  Would you not help your little brother if there was a big bully pushing him around?  No – of course you wouldn’t.  You would rather see your little brother get his ass kicked – then explain to him later it would have just been better to give the bully his lunch money.

Further, probably close to half or more of those still in Iraq today signed up after the war’s justifications had evaporated, after the stories of casual murder, collective punishment and institutionalized torture were already splashed on television screens and across newspaper headlines worldwide. They, especially, should have known better.

Where did you get the idea that the war’s justification evaporated?  Even the Robert’s commission proved there were WMD prior to the outset of the war.  There are aerial surveillance photos of convoys of Russian trucks leaving areas from within Iraq known to contain WMD and nuclear materials to areas in Syria.  The fact we didn’t actually find the WMD once we got there is proof that Russia aided Iraq by moving them in to other enemy countries.  In fact, we have continuously found evidence of WMD storage facilities as well as mobile manufacturing facilities.  Even though we haven’t actually found that cache – the fact of the matter now is that even Al Qaeda has called Iraq the central front of the war on terrorism.  Oh – wait – I forgot – the terrorists are just misunderstood.  They aren’t really terrorists are they?  They’re just freedom fighters.  They’re just fighting the imperialist United States – right?  Well – fuck you!  Tell that to Thomas Jefferson and the countless colonials that were killed then by radical islamofascists.  Tell that to all those Jews that were slaughtered at the hands of Hitler during WWII – backed, supported, and assistance provided by radical islamofascists.  Tell that to those Olympians killed in Munich in 1972.  Tell that to Leon Klinghoffer who was in a wheel chair and throw overboard from the Achille Lauro in 1986.  Tell that to Navy Seaman Robert Stetham who’s lifeless body was thrown out the back of TWA flight 847 on the tarmac in Lebanon in 1985.  Tell that to all those people killed in England, Spain, Australia, Bali, Germany, the Phillipines, by islamofascist suicide bombers.  Sure – this is all about the imperialist U.S. isn’t it you fucknozzle!

Casual murder?  Collective punishment?  Institutionalized murder?  WTF are you even talking about?  If you are referring to Abu Ghraib – that was an anomaly and atrocity committed by rogue national guardsmen – not even regular Army.  Nothing of the sort has happened since.  While Murthafucker and Obama have been pushing to get our troops tried in a civilian court of law for being soldiers – they’ve all been acquitted.  Idiots like you will always try to make a case against soldiers doing their jobs.  Those rogue soldiers will be put behind bars – but – they are the exception to what our brave soldiers are really about.  But, you wouldn’t know anything about that.  You have no honor if you’re so willing to throw your fellow countrymen under the bus for doing their job and protecting your sorry ass.

So, I will not support the troops. In fact, fuck the troops! Each and every US serviceperson today who is not deserting, refusing to follow orders or turning their weapons on their commanders is, in fact, a criminal, and one for whom we should feel neither sympathy nor pity, let alone the specious solidarity of “support the troops” when it’s those same “troops” who are carrying out slaughter, destruction and torture in our name.

At the same time, fuck all those who support the troops! If history, recent or ancient, hasn’t been sufficient to educate you on the true nature of war and the true nature of the predatory, inhuman power you seem so eager to serve, then damn you for your stupidity, damn you for your ignorance, damn you for your blindness, damn you for your fallacious morality. And this goes not only for every family member or friend of someone serving in the US military today who is NOT insistently urging their child or husband or wife or friend to desert or disobey, it goes also for every federal employee and for every shareholder and employee from janitor to CEO of the military-industrial-terrorism complex and the companies that comprise it: Blackwater, Halliburton, Boeing, General Dynamics, Allied-Signal, Unisys, Westinghouse, DynCorp, Exxon, Hewlett-Packard, EDS, Computer Sciences Corporation, IBM, Hughes, KBR, Kearfott, Lockheed-Martin, McDonnell Douglas, Mitsubishi, Motorola, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon, Shell, AT&T, Sikorsky, United Technologies and all the rest. There is blood on your hands, real human blood — lives taken, families shattered, homes destroyed, crops ruined, populations displaced, tortures committed, atrocities sanctioned, all facilitated by your unthinking, odious, ignorant, unconscionable support.

Aaaargghhhh!!!  You really are an insane little twit aren’t you?  You condone our troops for doing what is honorable and fighting to free the oppressed – but – then you push for them to kill their superiors?  WTF kind of pathetic hypocritical little weasel are you?  I see, it’s okay to kill someone else in the name of “morality” as long as you personally aren’t the one pulling the trigger – you suck!

You know what – I support the troops.  I support their mission.  I support everything about our military and why we have one…and…to you…I say fuck you too you asshole.  If you really hate this country so bad – do us all a favor – get the fuck out.  We don’t need pussies like you.  I can see you now – islamofascist asshole standing over you with a machete getting ready to cut your damned head off – you’re given a choice – convert to Islam or die – rather than stand up for what you believe – you would convert just to save your ass.  Well – you don’t have to worry about that – Our troops make sure of it – Asshole!
