Awww, how sweet... A volunteer group of professional photographers taking pictures of the "warriors" and their families as they go off to fight "for our freedom". Anybody catch the tone yet? A sickly sweet family scene with a father in the Air Force being deployed, leaving behind his young son and his wife, 6 months preggers with his next son, whose birth he's going to miss because he's going to be Blowing Other Young Mothers and Children and Their Families Apart with high explosives. So he's playing toy soldiers with his son, that's right, go ahead and teach your kid to be more cannon fodder/Imperial Storm Trooper in the endless war started by Billionaires to stuff their bank accounts with more blood money, and they'll tell your kid that it's all about "freedom" and "protecting America" and other lies. "When I grow up I'm going to be a merciless butcher of Human Beings just like Daddy!" As usual there won't be any such "humanitarian" mission to show the families who are about to be "terminated", walking, talking, laughing and playing and loving. No, because they MUST be portrayed as evil, as sons of Satan, in order to maintain the fear and Hatred needed to keep the Long, Long Long War going for generations. Jeb Bush and Karl Rove and Don Rumsfeld made the plans ten years before the bombing of Baghdad, they would seize Iraq, and it's oilfields, (Why did God put OUR oil under THEIR sand? and then use it as a launching point to keep the rest of the world as vassal states, bringing tribute not to America but to Wall Street... to the billionaires in the 1%. And to suspend the Constitution "until the war is over" but (and the bastards even put it in writing in the PNAC plans) they'd declare war not against any one nation but against Terror. Tell the people we'll get our freedom back once they think it's safe for us to have those freedoms... you know, maybe in 70 or 80 years when they'll have several generations growing up with only the government defined "freedom" and not have anything to compare it to. When they made the Constitution "just a god-damn piece of paper" they simultaneously made The Flag Ain't Nothin' But A Rag, and Freedom Ain't Nothin' But A Word We Use To Convince Children And Gullible Adults" But go ahead, Airman whateverthefuckyournameis. Join right in there, tell your kids the lies you already know are false, that he's going to be "free" because you're going to blow a few hundred or a few thousand "rag-heads" i away. Lie to the kids, y'all. Let them know that you believe they're fuckin' STUPID enough to believe the most outlandish bullshit you can come up with. Then, when they get old enough and educated enough to learn the truth, you're going to feel all betrayed when they reject your leadership and rebel against every "value" you let slide over your lying lips. Merry Christmas,
