No soldier is risking their life in Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya or Pakistan for me to be free. Freedom from what? Communists and Muslims taking over? There's NO CONNECTION between the war in Iraq and Afghanistan and my freedom. None at all! Since the advent of our military-industrial complex we are in no danger of losing our freedoms from a foreign enemy.
Our freedom can only be threatened by those who make the laws. Those threats are in Washington DC...not in the Middle East.
I'm thankful for writers who have the courage to look critically at the events of the day instead of accepting what they are spoon-fed.
When exactly did our government earn the blind faith of the American people?
Was it after the Gulf of Tonkin incident of 1964?
...or the Kuwaiti "incubator babies" story of 1991?
...or the Iraq WMD hoax of 2003?”
But hey, thats all in the past, forget about that stuff.
Instead lets all hold hands and sing a chorus of "Proud to be an American".

http://www.independent.org/newsroom/article.asp?id=1941Why don’t the military and its supporters revise their claim to, "The military "tries to protect your freedom?" Such a statement might actually be grounded in honesty, though no more convincing than the original claim.
Somehow, that statement just does not have the sound-bite simplicity necessary to excite supporters, reassure the masses and continue the deception.
