I mean this is our political doings and they have paid a huge price. Could you imagine being occupied by China to free us from our corrupt administration and we had a million dead people, I think we would be parts of insurgent groups too but then we would have no weapons to fight with.

When will they ever learn....when will they eeeeevvvveerrr learn.

I guess, in my lifetime,....never.

It's so painful for us who are having a "second go round" with this...... :-( Maybe we were so innocent..we thought we could change it and that pain that lasted a couple of decades would be enough to stop it ...since it was so fresh in OUR minds. But, it seems to have only been in "OUR MINDS" and the nation's psyche didn't hold it....didn't care...said move on...

13. That's the song. "Maybe we were so innocent"
Part of it was we forgot that peace is a lifetime commitment. We decided we had accomplished the "revolution", and went on to other things.

I hope the next generation realizes that a)We have to be in it for the long haul, and b), in order to be in it for the long haul, we have to form community, and really BE THERE for each other, as the Europeans do.

Another part of it was having the wind taken out of our sails by the assassinations and the killings of Kent State, etc.

16. Sung by PP&M, written by Pete Seger: Lyrics
WHERE HAVE ALL THE FLOWERS GONE
words and music by Pete Seeger

Where have all the flowers gone?
Long time passing
Where have all the flowers gone?
Long time ago
Where have all the flowers gone?
Girls have picked them every one
When will they ever learn?
When will they ever learn?

Where have all the young girls gone?
Long time passing
Where have all the young girls gone?
Long time ago
Where have all the young girls gone?
Taken husbands every one
When will they ever learn?
When will they ever learn?

Where have all the young men gone?
Long time passing
Where have all the young men gone?
Long time ago
Where have all the young men gone?
Gone for soldiers every one
When will they ever learn?
When will they ever learn?

Where have all the soldiers gone?
Long time passing
Where have all the soldiers gone?
Long time ago
Where have all the soldiers gone?
Gone to graveyards every one
When will they ever learn?
When will they ever learn?

Where have all the graveyards gone?
Long time passing
Where have all the graveyards gone?
Long time ago
Where have all the graveyards gone?
Covered with flowers every one
When will we ever learn?
When will we ever learn?

A Poem That I Wrote In A High Fever

You who are lengthening your lives
with the best doctors and the best medicines
remember those who are shortening their lives
with the wars
that you in your long lives are not
preventing.

You who are again screwing
the younger generations
and winking at each other
the winking of your eyelids
is like the chill of the swinging shutters
in an empty house.


-- Yehuda Amichai

Local Marine killed in Iraq

COOKEVILLE -- A U.S. Marine from Cookeville has been killed in Iraq, his family has been told. Lance Corporal Lance Murphy Clark, 21, of Jager Lane, Cookeville, the son of John Dale and Susie Scott of Cookeville and Jackie and Pam Clark of Chestnut Mound, died in southern Iraq on Sept. 7, Marine officers told the Scott family late Friday night.

40. Sadly, we'll be adding "one more" virtually every 8 hours, every day, as long as anyone can see.
Our sons, daughters, brothers, sisters, husbands, wives, aunts, uncles, and neighbors ... dead. Children are losing parents and our nation is losing even the recollection of having honor and aspirations.

Honor.

Do many of us even care what that means anymore?

Have we become so cynical and corrupt as a nation that we no longer value courage or integrity in our public servants?

53. Why do we all care so much about those perpetrating the crimes and so little for their victims?
Edited on Tue Sep-11-07 04:41 PM by personman
By crimes I'm referring specifically to the war of aggression in Iraq, and other crimes stemming from it. To quote the chief american prosecutor of the Nuremberg trials:

"To initiate a war of aggression, therefore, is not only an international crime; it is the supreme international crime differing only from other war crimes in that it contains within itself the accumulated evil of the whole."

We hung nazis for this, and "I was just doing my job" was NOT an accepted excuse.

If we don't stop painting these walking brain-stems as heroes we will never outgrow this, and they will never take a serious look at themselves.

Between Clinton's sanctions and bombings and the Bush wars, 1,000,000 dead Iraqi civilians sounds a conservative estimate.

Those who ignore history are doomed to repeat it.

55. The criminals are in the White House, facilitated by sycophants in Congress and ...
Edited on Tue Sep-11-07 07:24 PM by TahitiNut
... enabled by "We the People." The buck stops at OUR feet ... ALL of ours. The sole legitimacy of any government comes from the CONSENT of the governed ... no matter how lazy and passive ... and that's US. We consent, as a nation, by paying taxes. We consent, as a nation, by taking no action. We consent, as a nation, by not leaving our blood in the streets. We consent, as a nation, by not doing everything we can do.

It is the 'social contract' (the bargain we make) of a democracy, no matter how atrophied, that we buy into the directions our elected (no matter how arguable) government chooses. It's the bargain of a democracy to accept the will of the majority - as represented, however imperfectly, by the system of elections and citizen participation we've enacted and established. Just because we whine and kvetch and disagree, it does NOT absolve us from responsibility for that governance unless and until we're bleeding in our own streets to take it back.

We're not doing that.

We're making juvenile critiques of Code Pink. We're making pretentious and empty critiques of MoveOn.org ... from the peanut gallery. That's what passes for "consent" - pissing on those actively DISSENTING and risking jail time for civil disobedience. (It's easy to sneer from the cheap seats.)

The military is SUBORDINATE to the "consent of the governed."

If they can bleed and die ... and we make no such investment and take no such risk ... we are not earning a moral right to throw stones.

It's easier to complain and criticize than actually do something. In that sense, we appear like spoiled brats whining about the meals our mother cooks.

Detestable.



People should probably take careful note that the rank and file soldiers were NOT tried at Nuremberg. It was the senior leadership. The War Crimes were prosecuted from the top down. I cannot be conscionably done, even rhetorically, from the bottom. Taking cheap shots at the rank and file military without bringing the chief War Criminals to trial is sheer cowardice.

56. I don't blame the people for this...I don't blame JUST the troops...
Edited on Wed Sep-12-07 12:04 PM by personman
I've replied here because the other thread was locked..I was planning to use some of the response here anyway as well, so here it is:

Troop worship IS war glorification.

They ain't over there huggin' and kissin' 'em.

I was using Nuremberg to illustrate the ideas behind the Nuremberg Principles, one of them being:

"The fact that a person acted pursuant to order of his Government or of a superior does not relieve him from responsibility under international law, provided a moral choice was in fact possible to him."

I don't think anyone would argue this was meant to apply only to top brass and I personally don't think the fact they only chose to apply it to the top brass is particularly relevant, I think the principle is universal. The difference between the "top brass" and "rank-and-file" is the difference between http://www.anarchismtoday.org/index.php?name=News&file=article&sid=17">Pirates and Emporers.

You seem to have the impression, based on this reply and the last, that I'm attempting to pin all the blame on the troops. I am not. I am saying however, that they ARE NOT blameless. We have free will no matter how some of us choose to ignore it.

If we don't like the choices they are making then perhaps we need to look at our society and our education system and see why they make the choices they make. That's another discussion for another thread though.

-personman

P.S. All your "We the people" talk does is convince me that you are a successfully indoctrinated cog in the machine, further proved by your incorrect assertion that the public supports what the government is doing. The people aren't "failing" (and the lack of faith in your fellow man this framing implies is sad). The government is. Liberals such as yourself think people don't vote because they are stupid and lazy, but the fact is, this wonderful liberal "democracy" of ours believes the people must be removed from the political arena. This idea has been called the http://www.anarchismtoday.org/index.php?name=News&file=article&sid=2">manufacture of consent and as far as democrats and republicans are concerned, it's "the way democracy is done." So people have this crazy perception (completely true of course, but opposed to established doctrine) that they don't have any meaningful say in their lives, and whether they vote for a demopublican or a republicrat, government wins.

Even calling our system a democracy is a dishonest frame that seeks to stamp whatever mess the leadership are dragging us in to with the public's approval. If I thought for a moment people really agreed with what our leadership does, I'd probably join al-qeada. (jk)

The problem is the power structure. Blaming the people doesn't really make much sense to me, and seems much closer to me to "blaming the victim" then any of my troop rhetoric.
