FBI infiltrator in anti-war movement ( do you recognize them? )

17. I have a suspicion about their justifications/motivations/rationalizations

I believe people who have been through the military and lucky enough to come out the other side alive and
intact enough to maintain employment (as opposed to the many who end up homeless, grievously wounded or
dead by their own hand or anothers) are proud of their service, angry about the others who were not so lucky,
and INVESTED in the culture of violent oppression that America spreads through foreign policy.
I believe many of those conditioned by the military cannot easily see themselves or their country as the bad guys,
no matter what history or public sentiment suggests.
They can then easily fit into a militarized local police force and justify actions we might find completely repugnant.
I think that sort of background applies to many newly born Democrats who rebel against the GW Bush era by supporting
the other team, including similar military and oppressive actions because of simple psychological tendencies.
Deceit and Self-Deception offer many roads to perdition.
How many of us can really hold ourselves accountable for heinous actions, when it is so easy to blame someone else?
Especially if you have the backing and support of national rationales, patently false as they may be.
