(750 posts)Our souls dont die, they ascend. John Kerrys soul took a turn. Where it is going many wonder. My self as a Vietnam veteran in that time respecting Kerry for his review of what was wrong in the Vietnam war, now I weep. My eyes well up in thoughts about the sacrifice many Americans made in that war plus the disrespect the veterans endured immediately after the war. Now Iraq the disrespect is there even worse to ignore benefits to many veterans, now want to press for more war. Insane we are.
My memory reflects back to the very first time hearing about the decision to bomb Iraq. My thinking flashed back to school the early grade a very young time learning about the cradle of civilization. Iraq, the Tigress and Euphrates river as the bread basket in the beginning of governments. Now all oil profiteers the reason. Even back in the sixties Richard Feynman the famous physicist said school books are not written with the principal goal of conveying accurate information as genuine understanding. They are written with intention of training students to bubble in the correct answer on multiple choice standardize tests., that supports my reason to dump the Gaussian for amortization loans.
The really awful feeling came over me as America was told to bomb, that something was wrong with that decision to bomb the ancient place. When are Americans going to understand the history we learned is just as corrupt as the bankers, the politicians, to the home owners the one percent gassed with phony contracts, those men deep in government always disrespecting an agreement. Everyone having the eureka moment realizing our government done away with Americas indigenous Indian should give pause to no surprise. Why do they think that way? Its not Kool-Aid, its metadata lust in power for profiteering that corrupts and blinds the one percent.
