"It is certainly disgusting that U.S. Marines pissed on the bodies of several dead Taliban -- but isn't it more disgusting that the Taliban are dead in a criminal war of aggression waged to advance American global hegemony? Rank these items in terms of the disgust you think they merit:That is some serious truth-telling. Arthur Silber goes straight to the heart of the matter like no one else does.
* The systematic destruction of a series of nations and their peoples over a period of many decades.
* The murder of more than a million innocent people in a criminal war.
* The ongoing murders of people who do not (and most commonly could not) threaten the U.S., in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Yemen, Somalia, and on and on and on -- in 120 countries around the globe.
* The claim that the U.S. Government has the "right" to murder anyone in the world for whatever reason it chooses -- a "right," I remind you, which the U.S. Government has actualized.
* Pissing on three dead bodies.
We refuse to speak about the first four items, but the guardians of our culture insist that they are sickened and outraged by the last one. Displacement of this kind is never innocent. The purpose is to help those who claim to be disgusted and outraged convince themselves (and us) that they (and thus "we") are "moral," "good" and "decent." They are not. If they were, they would speak about the other items -- and they would speak about them all the time. But they almost never mention them, except to justify them."
The condemnation of this incident by Hillary Clinton and other demonic liars is a farce. These creeps piss on the public and the truth, so who are they to criticize the actions of soldiers who fight, bleed, and die for America?
In my eyes, a Marine who pisses on a dead Taliban fighter has more honour in his piss than the entire American political establishment in Washington, which has misled Marines into killing and humiliating hundreds of thousands of innocent people.
Clinton, Obama, Cheney, Bush, and their ilk have no honour, no morality, and no decency. They don't defend American values and principles, they piss on them in the dark, behind the cameras.
These Marines who pissed on dead people, which is something that the barbarian invaders in a Genghis Khan unit would do, are at least honest in their hatred of the Enemy as they know it. The ruling elite in Washington, who consider the American people and 99.9% of humanity to be their Enemy, are not honest in their hatred of their Enemy.
Obama, Clinton, Cheney, Bush, the neocons, and the rest of the traitorous gang in Washington are weasels and wimps who mislead honest beasts into criminal and evil wars.
Read Silber's article. Let's make sure our moral compass remains on target and that we distinguish our level of disgust at Marines pissing on the dead in battle, and at anti-American political leaders in Washington who piss on the living and the dead in America and around the world.
