Looks like American camo to me. I wonder if there is a message in this picture? Maybe you will too after you read THIS ARTICLE where it appears Americans are actually buying the bullets used to kill their own sons and daughters, fathers, sisters, mothers and brothers in uniform. But what the hell there's billions of taxpayer bucks to piss away so let's have a party! From the article:
"The manager of an Afghan firm with lucrative construction contracts with the U.S. government builds in a minimum of 20 percent for the Taliban in his cost estimates. The manager, who will not speak openly, has told friends privately that he makes in the neighborhood of $1 million per month. Out of this, $200,000 is siphoned off for the insurgents."
And I thought friendly fire was the only self-inflicted damage suffered. Now we find out just about anything that happens to our troops was bought and payed for with taxpayer money , and of course, opium. Maybe it'll bring the point home if you look at THIS ARTICLE describing the bomb damage assessment of your taxpayer dollars on our fathers, mothers, sisters and brothers in uniform. From the article:
"The month began with a fatal roadside bombing and ended with word that an American had died of wounds suffered in a firefight. After nearly eight years of warfare in Afghanistan, July proved by far the deadliest month yet for U.S. troops and their foreign allies.
Bombs and rocket attacks, ambushes and aviation accidents killed many of the 72 foreign troops, including 43 Americans, according to data at the website icasualties.org. Previously, the highest monthly U.S. toll was 28 in June 2008, according to the independent website.
...Also driving the increased casualty count is the growing U.S. troop presence, Western forays into previously Taliban-dominated areas and a determined, resilient insurgency.
"It's a strong example of the asymmetric nature of Taliban and insurgent tactics and procedures," said Seth Jones, an Afghanistan expert with Rand Corp."
So let me get this straight - the Taliban had the Opium wiped out pre-911, the U.S. moves in, Opium production skyrockets and the American taxpayer now gets to finance both sides of the same war. Some deal huh? What boggles the mind of Jack Rabbit is how anybody who has lost a loved one, or presently has a loved one at risk in this war based on lies practices restraint. I mean....we are financing both sides of the same war. We are financing both sides of the same war. We are financing both sides of the same war. We are financing both sides of the same war. Yes, I'll try anything including repetition to wake people up.
Now watch this video where we learn from Dennis Kucinich that Americans pay for weapons used to slaughter kids!
Meanwhile give up your guns, give up your free speech, give up your liberty and give up your money - because we're from the American government and we're here to help!
UPDATE AUGUST 3, 2009 Taliban's Tank-Killing Bombs Came From US, Not Iran

No mention of Blackwater's Erik Prince delivering the munitions in his personal plane? And the"suicides"of any soldiers who tried to expose that?
ReplyDeleteKucinich is one of a kind. We need 500 more just like him.
ReplyDeleteGood point on Blackwater - I've been ranting about them so much I thought I had to give it a break -
ReplyDeleteHere's a recent post on them:
