The Ugly American and Pissed Off

A deer friend of mine sent me a copy of a message she had received from her in-box containing these pictures of the carnage in the U.S. initiated war in Iraq. Personally, as an American for former soldier, I never felt right about our involvement over there, certainly not to the extent as is the situation now. There is no way this war can be justified by any stretch of the imagination and apparently we Americans learned nothing from our Viet Nam experience.

I am sure that if the American People were required by law to vote on this issue, as are the Peruvian people required to vote in all national elections, I would bet that 90 percent would opt to bring that horrible situation to a quick close. The question simply is -- why are we over there---The answer is money --- war is big business---- and this one, like Viet Nam is making a lot of people rich at the expense of the the people of Iraq, the cost of American lives and the stress on the pocket books of the American taxpayer.

The photos and bylines of the photos I received clearly reflect how our country is depicted elsewhere in the world, certainly to our neighbors to the South and I believe it is quite obvious to anybody not asleep, that this stupid war does nothing but demean the American people their freely elected representatives in Washington, and their credibility and standing. It is sickening to me and only confirms the direction of our counry is headed. What goes around will soon come around. These photos and certainly others only serve as a continuing inditment of America,s long and historical slide into the hands of the Globelists whose only pre-occupation is economic world conquest and dominion through manipulations of mindless and selfish and indolent power brokers, and especially those now seated in Washington. Then again, this is only possible because the American people have been put to sleep through their lust for personal pleasures and having forsaken the reason, logic and common sense of their forfathers . The following pictures are for your consideration and I hope you make your children and grand children look at them hard before you escort them to your local fast-food outlet and by them another pair of $100.00 garbage tennis shoes or send them off to some other foolish activity which further prepares their minds and spirits for the slavery and captivity which lays dead ahead.
