Global Solutions: Don't Support The Troops! |
|
"Military men are dumb, stupid animals, to be used as pawns for foreign policy" "Nothing will end war unless the people themselves refuse to go to war. It is my conviction that killing under the cloak of war is nothing but an act of murder." ~Albert Einstein "In two weeks, the sheeplike masses of any country can be worked up by the [media] newspapers into such a state of excited fury, that men are prepared to put on uniforms and kill and be killed, for the sake of the sordid ends of a few interested parties." ~Albert Einstein, 1934 "In war, truth is the first casualty." ~Aeschylus "No matter what political reasons are given for war, the underlying reason is always economic." ~A. J. P. Taylor | ||

The Vietnam War ended when soldiers stopped calling themselves heroes and when their families and the public stopped calling them heroes. It ended when soldiers threw away their medals, laid down their weapons and refused to fight. Heroes don't kill, maim, torture, burn, bomb, occupy and rob other nations and their people knowing the war(s) is a lie. The war machine deserves the active and vocal "disrespect" of world citizens. Being against the war(s) and saying you support the troops is one of the wussiest positions anyone can take. The truth is that people who pull triggers are ultimately responsible, whether they’re following orders or not. When they volunteer for the military, they are willingly signing up to take orders as a killing tool. Shaming the people who join the military or who think about joining will prevent fewer young people from throwing their lives away. Refuse to join. Refuse to fight. Refuse to kill. Refuse to support others who join, fight and kill. The government will then be forced to bring back the draft. Then REFUSE THE DRAFT. |
