- OgniAsuob, on 05/09/2008, -12/+175"What's our mission, what's our goal..?" Good question.
- redcolumbine, on 05/09/2008, -24/+162Whoa. Worth taking the time to watch.
- Fatcheeseguy, on 05/09/2008, -9/+125How often do you hear how many Iraqis have died or injured on the news?
- soulkitchen, on 05/09/2008, -26/+122Why don't more people ask questions about 9/11? If we're going to base so many foreign and domestic policies on that one day, we should fully understand what happened and why right? I'm not saying that it was some huge sinister conspiracy, but there are a lot of unanswered questions. As just one example: Who funded it? We don't know this and the 9/11 commission deemed it irrelevant. How is that NOT relevant???
- bearsandbulls, on 05/09/2008, -19/+100Even if you aren't behind this guy it's worth a digg. Very good speech.
- kemp34, on 05/09/2008, -19/+87Everyone with a conscience should be speaking out right now...
- inactive, on 05/09/2008, -2/+46Never. I don't get why people only care about the lives of their fellow nationals. Human life is the same everywhere.
- card51short, on 05/09/2008, -8/+49"He goes on to say that people in the street with AK-47 and boys making bombs are not terrorists....what the hell are they then."
Soldiers fighting?
We use bombs and assault rifles...does that make us terrorists? - inactive, on 05/09/2008, -19/+59The hijacked gvt doesn't give a ***** about the soldiers, look at what they did to Pat Tillmand and to Jessica Lynch and to their families:

The public is conditioned to believe everything: no matter if it is emotional stories or lies on weapons of mass destruction."
http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Pat_Til ...
"It would be a compelling story, if only it were true. Five weeks after Tillman's death, the Army acknowledged abruptly, without providing details, that he had 'probably' died from friendly fire." On March 4th, 2006, the Pentagon's Inspector General announced that after review, further investigation of Pat Tillman's death would be necessary to decide whether members in Tillman's unit should be charged with negligent homicide. - nblsavage, on 05/09/2008, -5/+42Remember, terrorists are what the big army calls the little army.
- MACady, on 05/09/2008, -13/+50If you don't get it yet...
WE HAVE BECOME THE TERRORISTS!
Please look up the definition of "terrorist" before you comment. - frostbyt, on 05/09/2008, -7/+43You can not be a Christan and believe that war is OK. It's murder. Plain and simple. It's so much easier to kill someone than to get along with them.
- Cryptocracy, on 08/17/2008, -9/+42we're all on borrowed time...
- MonsterChaOS, on 05/09/2008, -16/+48Well worth the time to watch it.
- TubeDigger, on 05/09/2008, -11/+42Powerful insight. The GI's are the only ones who can stop the war. Lets get that message back out to them. a loud enough voice could be heared across the ocean. Let the healing begin.
- sandersdamnit, on 05/09/2008, -11/+42from Texas huh? oh really i believe you are the one who is brainwashed you dumb ass. those people are making bombs because they want us out of their ***** country you retard. they hate us because we helped kill more of their people than Saddam ever did. Iraq was an extremely westernized Islamic country, but you wouldn't know that because you've probably never read anything other than low rider magazine you chicken hawk *****, why don't you take your stupid ass over there to fight the terrorizers. if you think the ethics of this country are to invade countries for agenda and business opportunities then by all means go over there, and i hope you come face to face with one of the "terrorists"
- mark076h, on 05/09/2008, -8/+38after you do your 4 years you are in inactive reserve and you can speak your mind about the war, even if they called you back in they could not prosecute him for anything he did or said.
- inactive, on 05/09/2008, -2/+32It's a lot bigger than Bush.
- jaymzdean, on 05/09/2008, -5/+31The fact that the 9/11 Commission deemed who financed the attack as "irrelevant" seems relevant to me. I've yet heard a response or explanation to questions along this line that didn't involve name-calling and personal attacks. Cognitive dissonance rules.
- Turambar, on 05/09/2008, -10/+36obvious troll is obvious
...right? - jgsketch, on 05/09/2008, -5/+30Nice speach regardless of your own views. People need to get both sides of they story. If you want to know what is going on with the war, do not look on CNN or the TV. Go to an outside source for unbais news and unfiltered news.
- normalkid0615, on 05/09/2008, -11/+34ok this kid is NOT a scholar, but he is a SOLDIER. Listen to this Video, it is MAJOR!!!
- whiter3, on 05/09/2008, -25/+47So he goes to Iraq for 6 months because he's a drug dealing deadbeat and has no future, comes back, goes to Canada because he decides he wants to avoid more responsibility he's been avoiding his whole life, and now he speaks to people of the horrors of Iraq and how it's a big lie.
This was well established three years ago. It's not like he joined because he was patriotic, or wanted to catch Al Queda, he just had nothing better to do with his life and was probably about to go to jail. How is this enlightening?
And don't get me wrong, it's an atrocity that we are losing so many soldiers in Iraq, and that they are being mistreated upon arrival back in the States, but get a better spokesperson next time. - imjohnparsons, on 05/09/2008, -13/+35I am completely against this war, and was from the start.
But you know what. that's why i didn't join the military. I'm so sick of hearing about these stupid kids who join the military , then get bullsh*t when they get sent off to war. If your not willing to fight, don't join. If you join at the time of war. you better count on going to war. if you expect us to just pay you to be in the army but not have you fight when we are at war, you're pathetic. Go AWOL and go to Canada if your going to just try and basically steal our tax money. were paying you for your service that your refusing to do.
Like i said from the start. I am against this war. but i do have great respect for those who are over there fighting this war and not bitching about it; and no respect whatsoever for those who join then refuse to fight. - richmomz, on 05/09/2008, -2/+24Take their gas and kick their ass. Oh, you meant the "official" mission? Uh, spread peace and democracy and all that good stuff. And find those WMDs. Yeah.
- inactive, on 05/09/2008, -7/+28Dennis Kucinich gets right to the point:

May 08, 2008 C-SPAN Congress Morning Speeches - nblsavage, on 05/09/2008, -5/+23So, when did you serve?
- busybenj, on 05/09/2008, -4/+22The comment he made about the apartment buildings in Baghdad puts it all into perspective.
- xceptionaly, on 05/09/2008, -2/+19Because after we got to Iraq and couldn't find the WMD's, the government tried to draw a flimsy connection to Al Qaeda(9/11) which then turned out to be patently false.
- whathappened, on 05/09/2008, -2/+19watch the full video before commenting.
- OutAndAbout, on 05/09/2008, -0/+17Wik says that he has received a less-than-honorable discharge and will not be court-martialed.
- FredFredrickson, on 05/09/2008, -6/+24Where are all those conservative ***** from the Code Pink article a few hours ago? Who's going to call this man unpatriotic or treasonous if they don't show up?
War is bad no matter what party you favor. We have no business in Iraq, and it's ruining this country to extend our stay there. - inactive, on 05/09/2008, -1/+18Thats what the British called the US during the revolution :-)
- jaydoj, on 05/09/2008, -2/+17RIP Pat, hell of a guy, and a hell of a football player
- jaymzdean, on 05/09/2008, -1/+16They've been brow-beaten and name-called into silent submission by those suffering from the psychosis of cognitive dissonance.
- Doktag, on 05/09/2008, -0/+14Crazy cook... like the Swedish chef on The Muppets?
- GhostyBoy, on 05/09/2008, -5/+19"Why don't more people ask questions about 9/11?"
The answers are really, really scary. - inactive, on 05/09/2008, -10/+24last week i ran down market street shouting "the war is over, the war is over" it was a lie of course but no one even reacted to it. i think somebody said what war? i got blank stares and confused looks. this war is already over in peoples perception, and that is what is hard to change.
- Winston84, on 05/09/2008, -11/+24That's a bit like saying "If you want an actual source of information on the Holocaust, head to David Irving's website"
If you're stupid enough to actually believe a word of what this guy says, I pity you - patpl22391, on 05/09/2008, -34/+47I wonder why the soldiers who support the mission don't get on the front page...It's as if the digg community doesn't want good news about Iraq because it may conflict with their pre-conceived notions and personal biases.
- Witchbaby, on 05/09/2008, -1/+14Ummm...yeah. Watch the video. He says right on there that Iraq didn't attack us - that there was not ONE Iraqi on the planes on 9/11.
- analogkid01, on 05/09/2008, -6/+19Really? You're "just sayin'"? And that's all?
- source1984, on 05/09/2008, -6/+19your president was a drunk druggy at one point.
- Darkgarion, on 05/09/2008, -4/+17Ha.. I'm from Texas and I completely agree with you. Not all of us are backwater bumpkins.
- card51short, on 05/09/2008, -8/+21excellent analysis.
"he's an idiot"
Wow...you gotta point there! - yumlum, on 05/09/2008, -2/+14i hate him too and his policies
- sealbeater, on 05/09/2008, -4/+16That's kinda funny. All these guys are dying "supposedly" for freedom and the American way and all that and they can't even enjoy their rights under the First Amendment
- fuzzmeister, on 05/09/2008, -0/+12Color me skeptical.
- Beaver1279, on 05/09/2008, -3/+15The tough thing for us citizens is to know who to believe. History gives us a million reasons not to believe our government especially in a time of war. This the main reason it is hard to have an opinion on the conduct of the war. No one seems to agree on what is going on there. Who are we to believe?
- SlayerX91, on 05/09/2008, -3/+15crazy my ass man, anyone who's ignorant enough not to listen to this REAL AMERICAN HERO is crazy. This country is born on the premise of questioning your leaders, we broke away from our government to CREATE THIS COUNTRY.
