Thanks to antiwar.com for a powerful article about the women and children who are being murdered - and then ignored by the U.S. mainstream media - by the U.S. armed forces as it chases down bad guys. The next Bin Laden is already alive and has hatred in his heart for what the U.S. military did to his family. An easy recruit for terrorists - no tough sell there. Time to listen to Ron Paul and leave the world alone.
In a civilized society, should anyone or any government ever force anyone to do anything against his or her will as long as that person does not infringe upon the life, liberty, or property of another?

Obama's horrible speech and clueless foreign policy
The Obamable, I mean Bush II, is escalating this immoral war in Afghanistan. Now, thirty thousand more targets will arrive to save the day. Thanks to antiwar.com for this great Justin Raimondo article about the folly of Obama's/the Pentagon's ways.

Change we can believe in?
I seem to recall Obama saying things would be different, the war needed to end, etc. And the Democrats kept echoing the same phrases and added how evil the Republicans were for waging war. Hmmm. But as we can see by this article, there's no difference between the Democrats and the Republicans. The Dems love war too. In fact, only Democratic presidents waged war the last century. Wilson with WWI, FDR with WWII, Truman the Korean War, Kennedy and Johnson the Vietnam War.
Congress has no guts. Instead of funding, they should shut down the empire and let people around the globe decide their own affairs.

Grab your weapons! The Pentagon wants more troops
The Pentagon wants to wage endless war, as you can read here in this article. The empire continues to grow as it drains America militarily, financially, and morally.

Iraq, Afghanistan pass Vietnam in cost
It's amazing how America does not learn lessons. The only thing we learn from history is that we don't learn from history. As this article that appeared on antiwar.com indicates, we've now paid $700 billion on Iraq and Afghanistan, more than was spent on Vietnam.
When President Lyndon Johnson poured billions into his "Great Society" and Vietnam at the same time (known as "guns and butter") he broke us. The '70's was a lackluster decade highlighted by stagflation and eventually very high inflation.
Won't we ever learn? 300 million people (4% of the world's population) trying to run the other 6 billion (96%). Who's paying for it? You and me.
