We Salute You: Hmong, Lao Veterans of America to Kham Xiong and U.S. Army Victims

"Private First Class Kham Xiong has accomplished his honorable service to our great nation, the United States of America, I salute him and his fellow soldiers at Fort Hood killed in this terrible shooting," Colonel Wangyee Vang said on behalf of Lao and Hmong veterans from Minnesota and across the United States.

Private Kham Xiong and many of his family were natives of Minnesotas Twin Cities where there are large Lao Hmong communities in both St. Paul and Minneapolis. U.S. Army Private First Class Xiong was a Hmong refugee born in Thailand following the communist takeover in Laos and Hmong exodus at the end of the Vietnam War.

In times like this, we feel so powerless to give aid and comfort to the dead soldier?s family

Viktoria Cowley was just a toddler when she was airlifted out of Vietnam, one of 99 children plucked from the war-torn country by the Daily Mail. Now she is trying to reunite the scattered evacuees.


Viktoria Cowley doesnt know how old she is, but she thinks about 36. Orphaned at a young age during the Vietnam War, she doesnt even know her parents names.


Her earliest documented experience dates from April 1975, when she appeared on the front page of the Daily Mail, aged about two. She was one of 99 babies and children airlifted out of Saigon in the newspapers mercy mission as the Vietcong advanced at the end of the war.


Looking at 1975 Daily Mail, headline:

Vikki spots herself in the Mails 1975 report on the airlift

Now, three decades after her arrival in Britain, Viktoria, known as Vikki, of Eastbourne, has recently embarked on a mission of her own - to reunite her fellow travellers. She has made contact with 15 so far.

Afghanistan: Karzai rival withdrew under US pressure


Islamabad, 6 Nov. (AKI) - By Syed Saleem Shahzad - The United States put pressure on Afghan president Hamid Karzais rival, Abdullah Abdullah, to withdraw from the countrys presidential race and hand victory to Karzai, sources have told Adnkronos International (AKI).

Sources said the American pressure was part of a deal struck last week with the Pakistani military, which in exchange agreed to establish direct contact with the Taliban and obtain peace with Taliban-led insurgents in Afghanistan.

The deal also highlighted the key role played by the Pakistani armed forces in regional politics, according to sources.

The administration of US president Barack Obama fears that failure to combat extremism in Pakistan will have a dominoe effect on the whole region and lead to certain defeat of American interests in neighbouring Afghanistan.

Last month, the US Congress approved a 1.5 billion dollar annual aid package to Pakistan

Tom Tancredo Walks Off MSNBC Set Because Of Markos Moulitas

clipped by: ratilfar
clippers remarks: "Youre not going to do that. Youre not going to try to insult me that way and then pretend like were just going on and talk about that. You either apologize ..." When Moulitas did not apologize, Tancredo simply took out his earpiece and walked away.

As a Republican student activist, Tancredo spoke out in favor of the Vietnam War but did not serve.

After graduating from college in June 1969, he became eligible to serve in Vietnam. Tancredo said he went for his physical, telling doctors hed been treated for depression, and eventually got a deferment.


On MSNBC Friday night, David Shuster (filling in for Ed Shultz) addressed hateful signs at Thursdays Capitol Hill "House call" against health care reform. But the discussion escalated into a fight that led a Republican guest to walk off the set.


Former Colorado congressman Tom Tancredo refused to criticize Republican leaders for participating in the event, saying there were equally offensive signs at anti-Bush rallies in the past. He said they should talk about the policy, not the signs.


Daily Kos founder Markos Moulitas defended health care reform, pointing out that the military uses government-run health care. Tancredo said veterans complained about their health care and would much rather have a private choice.


"Tom, Im a veteran. Okay?" Moulitas responded. "I did not get a deferment because I was too depressed to fight a war I supported in Vietnam. Im a veteran. They want a more effective V.A. ..."

SURVIVING FORT HOOD

Surviving Fort Hood


Home Fires - Five Iraq War Veterans on Their Return to American Life

Just as there is no way to explain the internal agony of war, there is no real way to explain what happens in its shadow. This is the domain of tortured minds that may never heal. This may very well be the legacy of Fort Hood.


Forty years ago I was a Marine returning from the war in Vietnam. I returned having been badly wounded in the chest and both legs. I tried to find solace in my scars but could not. I had abandoned my buddies only to come home to unchartered waters. Soon I found myself more terrified in peace than I was in war.


There is no way to sort through the nightmare that took place at Fort Hood. Soldiers are not supposed to die on their way to war and they most certainly are not supposed to die at the hands of those who care for their health.

The Opinuary Column: Freedom isnt Free (or Alive)

clipped by: ratilfar
clippers remarks: It fought its addiction to Crystal Meth (Cheaper Than Coke But Still Not Free) and Tobacco (the first carton for soldiers was Free, but after that, not so much) with grit and determination, which it had in buckets (buckets that were Free but had to be returned when it was done with them).

In the weeks before its death, the Opinion was often observed meditating on a litany of uncomfortable realizations: it had discovered that its apartment wasnt Free, its bar tab wasnt Free, its groceries werent Free and, having failed to appear in court on misdemeanor charges, it suffered the additonal ignominy of facing the fact that indeed, not even its DUI was Free ($250.00 just to post bail!). Its only words to the judge were these: "In the bastardized yet immortal phrasings of Kris Kristofferson: Freedoms just another word for something that isnt free..."

Family of the deceased Opinion are asking that, in lieu of flowers (which arent free) that each and every one of us do our part to d


The Opinion "Freedom isnt free" has died after a brief illness, owing in large part to its inability to pay for badly needed medical treatment. Having spent its early years being invoked to shut up dirty fucking hippies, its later years degraded into increasingly violent confrontations with health insurance companies and their motto "Health Care Isnt Free, It Isnt Even Health Care." With no more Free Time on its hands, it joined the ranks of the approximately 45,000 Americans who die every year because, well, you already know why.

Born during the era of The Vietnam War Isnt Free it was viewed as a comforting remonstration against anyone who ever pussifyingly questioned the rightness of our nations bloody habit of killing brown people in far away lands.

Having married its childhood sweetheart (Sex Isnt Free) only to discover its mate wanted to keep its night job, it sought a divorce (that wasnt Free) and lived out the rest of its years as a Free Spirit.

The Axis of Idiots - note from a Retired Marine

clipped by: billpar
clippers remarks: You want to run from Iraq and abandon the Iraqis to murderers just as you did to the Vietnamese. Iraq, like Vietnam, is another war that you were for, before you were against it.
John Murtha, you said our military was broken. You said we cant win militarily in Iraq. You accused United States Marines of cold-blooded murder without proof and said we should redeploy to Okinawa. Okinawa, John? And the Democrats call you their military expert! Are you sure you didnt suffer a traumatic brain injury while you were off building your war hero resume? Youre a sad, pitiable, corrupt and washed up politician. Youre not a Marine, sir. You wouldnt amount to a good pimple on a real Marines butt. Youre a phony and a disgrace. Run away, John.


The Axis of Idiots 

  Jimmy Carter, you are the father of the Islamic Nazi movement. You threw the Shah under the bus, welcomed the Ayatollah home, and then lacked the spine to confront the terrorists when they took our embassy and our people hostage. Youre the runner-in-chief.

  Bill Clinton, you played ring around the Lewinsky while the terrorists were at war with us. You got us into a fight with them in Somalia and then you ran from it. Your weak-willed responses to the USS Cole and the First Trade Center Bombing and Our Embassy Bombings emboldened the killers. Each time you failed to respond adequately, they grew bolder, until 9/11/2001. 

 John Kerry, dishonesty is your most prominent attribute. You lied about American Soldiers
in Vietnam. Your military service, like your life, is more fiction than fact. Youve accused our military of terrorizing women and children in Iraq. You called Iraq the wrong war, wrong place, wrong time, the same words you used to describe Vietnam.. Youre a fake

Hippos crowd Israel zoo

clipped by: tabsey
Clip Source: www.abc.net.au

Israel is dealing with a unique problem - what to do with a surplus of hippos.


Israels zoo has had a baby boom in the hippo department.


A high birthrate has boosted the hippo population to 40 - far more than the average zoo could handle.


Zookeepers say they reached a point where they could find nothing to do with so many of them.


So in recent months, 14 hippos have been shipped by air or sea to zoos in Russia, Turkey, Vietnam, even Kazakhstan.


They say Israel is suddenly the worlds top exporter of hippopotamuses. Many more zoos have placed orders.

Her father said she had been admitted to hospital after refusing to eat for a month and had made several attempts to return to the forest.

"She has refused to eat rice for about one month. She is skinny now... She still cannot speak. She acts totally like a monkey. Last night, she took off her clothes, and went to hide in the bathroom."
