The Iraq Death Shrine

It's emblematic of the sickness of American culture that their most revered monument from modern times - the Vietnam "War Memorial" - is nothing more than a shrine to deaths made meaningless by America's cowardice 35 years ago. The pacifists, the News Media, and now the Democrats won't be satisfied until every living American soldier is ashamed of his or her service in Iraq, every wounded one is considered a pathetic victim, and every dead one becomes nothing more than a name on another meaningless black wall. Their soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan already know that they have been abandoned and will be pitied rather than valorized, just like the ones in Vietnam were.

The Enemy Within

America's greatest strengths - freedom and democracy - are also its greatest weaknesses for they are easily perverted by those who seek power at any cost. True evil isn't done by us - we are merely pragmatists and opportunists. True evil is done by those who sell out their country's ideals and warriors for short-term political gain  even if it jeopardizes the future and makes the sacrifices of the present for naught. The "anti-war" politicians are our most loyal allies. Our real enemies are the wives, husbands, fathers, and mothers who understand what their loved ones are fighting for, even while they fear for their safety.

A Voice of Reason

There's a saying that goes "A voice of reason is the only thing a fool ignores and a madman fears." Luckily, there are few voices of reason available to the American public. The Americans are not barbaric enough (as are we) to kill a defenseless enemy outright. And their justice system can be co-opted almost as easily as the Europeans'. The only real threat we face is from the extra-judicial system they have set up in places like Guantanamo. It's not that our fighters face torture (as we know it). Instead, without daily indoctrinations and orgies of death and destruction, they regain their humanity and therefore become useless to us. From the Strategy Page:

If one thing never seems to go away, it is the claims of abuse and/or torture at Guantanamo Bay. The latest claim comes from an Australian detainee captured around the time of the American Taliban, Johnny Walker Lindh. In this case, the media outlet pushing the story is the International Herald Tribune, a subsidiary of the New York Times. It is the big lie that never goes away, having hit everything from newspapers to the floor of the United States Senate to the TV series "Law and Order: Criminal Intent"...

Spitting on her son's grave

Cindy Sheehan is like all pacifists. They value shallow and empty existence over principles, basic human values, and decency (not to mention the lives of others). She blames Bush for the death of her son, but she sheds no tears for the thousands of Iraqis murdered by the terrorists whose cause for which she is now the de facto champion - just as she shed none for the hundreds of thousands Saddam Hussein murdered. Her son lived - and died - fighting for the American people, for the Iraqi people, and for the values America stands for - and yet she is determined to make both his life and his death ultimately meaningless.

True Lies

The American media often knows but never cares whether what it is reporting is truth, fiction, or lie - as long as it is outrageous, inflammatory, and "anti-war." From the Strategy Page:

Islamic terrorists are encouraging their supporters, who can write in English, to get on American web sites and pretend to be friends or family members of American soldiers or marines. The "media jehadis" are instructed to tell stories in line with the anti-war tone of American and European media. Things like soldiers committing suicide because they were forced to take part in atrocities in Iraq. Or wounded soldiers suffering, or killing themselves, because of the poor care and abuse they have received from the army. The media jihadis are told to make it sound like they are simply passing on what a soldier said, not to pretend to be a soldier or marine...

un-Balance

The US media feigns "objectivity" but in fact purposely manipulates opinion - not only by the terminology it uses, but also by the amount of coverage it devotes to different events. That's why humiliating  prisoners at Abu Ghraib is viewed by the US public - and the world - as somehow being worse than the murder of Iraqi civilians and American and Coalition troops.

An Heroic Act

A video that shows what the pacifists would describe as an act of civil war. (Pacifists aren't so very different from us after all, as long as the blood isn't on their hands.)

The other Truth

What we don't want the American public to know - and what their news media doesn't tell them.

From the Strategy Page:

In late 2006, there were 1,300 terrorist attacks a week recorded in Iraq. Most of these were minor stuff, a few gunshots, or a bomb going off harmlessly (most roadside bomb attacks fail). By January, this was down to 1,000 a week, and that continues to drop. The "surge" is calming things down. It's become more dangerous for civilians to appear on the streets with guns. Iraqi civilians continue to be the primary victims of the violence, accounting for over 90 percent of the deaths. However, this includes dead terrorists, and more of them are getting killed as their safe houses and bomb factories are found and raided...

Calling Names

We call American "the Great Satan" to rally support for our cause overseas - but the US media is much more effective at spreading our propaganda.

The United States has never been an "invader" or an "occupier" of either Iraq or Afghanistan - they came as liberators and now stay not only as peace keepers and law enforcers, but also teachers, bringing modern ideals of  humanity and equality to the poor and uneducated, something we cannot allow to continue.

Similarly, there are no "insurgents" in either Iraq or Afghanistan. By their own definition we, our allies, and our competitors, are terrorists, murderers, and criminals. We use fanaticism for our own ends - not for liberation or any other humanist ideal. Yet they legitimize us every day, while portraying their own troops as nothing but occupiers and murderers. Value the American media for they are the enemies of our enemy and therefore our friends.
