Point Man, Roger Helleclipped by: dl211clippers remarks: ?I want to believe that some of our politicians are just blinded to the truth of what we are facing, but reality tells me that there are some in politics who hate everything that this country stands for and want to see us defeated, again, by our enemies. But this enemy is unlike any that we have ever faced. May God help us to stand for what we believe, or we will certainly fall before the onslaught of radical Islam.??Sgt. Roger Helle (USMC Ret.) Clip Source: us.f319.mail.yahoo.com Veterans Day Profile: Point Man, Roger Helle ?I?m Sgt. Helle?s brother. How is he?? asked Roger?s twin brother, Ron, also an E-5, USMC. ?I?m sorry son, but your brother is going to die,? the physician responded tersely. That was July 1970, China Beach, Vietnam. In an instant, gunfire erupted and a series of ?daisy-chain? explosions propelled Roger and two other Marines over the vegetation into an adjacent rice paddy. As he slowly recovered from the shock of the concussion generated by the explosions, he could see green tracers from VC weapons cutting up and down the trail. The ambush was over as quickly as it began, and more than 60 VC emerged like ghosts from the bamboo, killed the wounded Marines on the trail, collected their weapons and disappeared.

Clipmarks | Vietnam ClipsWill there be a Dolchstoßlegende (stab-in-the-back myth) on the Iraq war?clipped by: Rasmusclippers remarks: Warnings about a new stab-in-the-back myth may seem premature or overheated at this moment in the Iraq War. Yet, if the history of the original version of this myth is any guide, the opposite is true. They are timely precisely because the Dolchstoßlegende was not a post-war concoction, but an explanation cunningly, even cynically, hatched by Rightists in Germany before the failure of the desperate, final "victory offensive" of 1918 became fully apparent. Although Hindenburgs dramatic testimony in November 1919 [...] popularized the myth in Germany, it caught fire precisely because the tinder had been laid to dry two years earlier. Clip Source: www.alternet.org Wilhelmine Germany in 1917 and 1918 Field Marshal Paul von Hindenburg and his loyal second, General Erich Ludendorff, pushed Germany toward defeat and revolution in a relentless pursuit of victory in World War I. succeeded in deploying a stab-in-the-back myth, or Dolchstoßlegende, that shifted blame for defeat from themselves and Rightist politicians to Social Democrats and others allegedly responsible for losing the war by their failure to support the troops at home. The German Army knew it was militarily defeated in 1918. But this was an inconvenient truth for Hindenburg and the Right, so they crafted a new "truth": that the troops were "unvanquished in the field." self-censorship, coupled with wider institutional self-deception, effectively opened the door to exculpatory myths. Its a myth we ourselves are familiar with.

Now in the Smithsonian. Unfortunately, the site does not include a photo of the art work.....a pity. Sounds fascinating. Clip Source: www.smithsonianmag.com War and RemembranceAn Indian artists traditional tribute honors Native American soldiers who served in Vietnam In 2001, Her Many Horses, an artist trained both in traditional beadwork and in doll-making, began the creation of a commemorative tableau featuring miniature figures of Vietnam-era veterans and the tribal women who welcomed them home with ceremonies. Even today, these rituals are not much changed from the days when warriors returned from the Little Big Horn. It was around this time, in the mid-1960s, that Indian soldiers began returning from tours of duty in Vietnam to be met by honoring ceremonies. One man returned repeatedly to look at the dolls. He finally revealed that he was a Korean War veteran, allowing that to stand as sufficient reason for his intense contemplation of the work. Her Many Horses, a member of the Oglala Lakota Sioux of the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota, began attending tribal powwows as a boy.

Clipmarks | Vietnam ClipsA Time To Break Silenceclipped by: thisnamecantbetakenclippers remarks: "Americas soul. .... can never be saved so long as it destroys the deepest hopes of men the world over." - Martin Luther King. A different war, a different time, but MLKs words still ring true. Clip Source: www.indiana.edu "A time to break silence""A time comes when silence is betrayal." That time has come The truth of these words is beyond doubt, but the mission to which they call us is a most difficult one. Even when pressed by the demands of inner truth, men do not easily assume the task of opposing their governments policy, especially in time of war. We must speak with all the humility that is appropriate to our limited vision, but we must speak I could not be silent in the face of such cruel manipulation For the sake of those boys, for the sake of this government, for the sake of the hundreds of thousands trembling under our violence, I cannot be silent. This I believe all of us who deem ourselves bound by allegiances and loyalties which are broader and deeper than nationalism are called to speak for the weak, for the voiceless, for victims of our nation and for those it calls enemy, for no document from human hands can make these humans any less our brothers.
The Battle of Dien Bien Phuclipped by: ratilfarClip Source: youtube.com [Video] Vietnam Veterans Memorial Defacedclipped by: ColoradoRightclippers remarks: Just what does it say about our country when our veterans have to come out to protect the memorials that all our people have erected to honor the service of all our veterans? Something that is not good. Clip Source: www.humanevents.com Last Friday a ?light, oily substance? was sprayed on 50 to 60 feet of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial wall panels and paving stones in an act of apparent vandalism Some veterans groups are planning to parallel the demostrations with lines of volunteers blocking access to the Vietnam Wall and other memorials they believe may be targeted for defacment. The assumption that Friday?s discovery was an act of vandalism connected with the demonstrations seems a logical conclusion. ?Who ever did this, if they were trying to enrage the Vietnam Veterans, they did,? said Riley. ?We have been stomped on and ridiculed and spit on simply because we went when our nation called. Scruggs who is also founder and president of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund said that there is a belief that the recent vandalism was motivated by "MoveOn.org type of people" but he hopes that no one is accusing them at this point. Denis Johnsons New Novel: Tree of Smokeclipped by: ouyangwulongclippers remarks: There are a few tribes that hunt monkeys, but for almost anyone else, the small details of surprising humanity in monkeys makes killing one feel unsettlingly close to home. Denis Johnson starts his latest book, Tree of Smoke, with the killing of a monkey, on the day of Kennedys assassination, amidst the tension that you can feel propelling the characters like a wound up rubber band into the chaos of the Vietnam War. And it is this tension that rings in my ears, now that my generation has also known that dreadful tension - 2003 like 1914, like 1939, like 1963, when society was already set on its terrible path and it was to late to pull the behemoth of humanity of its course... Clip Source: www.nytimes.com He stepped carefully, thinking about snakes and trying to be quiet because he wanted to hear any boars before they charged him. He was aware that he was terrifically on edge. From all around came the ten thousand sounds of the jungle, as well as the cries of gulls and the far-off surf, and if he stopped dead and listened a minute, he could hear also the pulse snickering in the heat of his flesh, and the creak of sweat in his ears. If he stayed motionless only another couple of seconds, the bugs found him and whined around his head. Seaman Houston took the monkeys meager back under the rifles sight. He raised the barrel a few degrees and took the monkeys head into the sight. Without really thinking about anything at all, he squeezed the trigger. Seaman Houston was terrified to witness its convulsions there. With fascination, then with revulsion, he realized that the monkey was crying. Its breath came out in sobs, and tears welled out of its eyes when it blinked. Now Bush says Iraq IS like Vietnam...clipped by: thinkingblueclippers remarks: Bush will say just about ANYTHING to keep his war going, going going. It is so obvious, he wants his despicable war to continue until the end of his incumbency, so he can dump it in someone elses lap and Im sure hes hoping that someone will be a Democrat. Then perhaps all the blame of this sad, quagmire of a war will not be associated with his name in the history books... Thats what HE THINKS! Clip Source: www.youtube.com [Video] The domestic PR war over Iraq is about to begin in earnest. When the war in Iraq did not progress as quickly as the Administration had hoped, President Bush resisted comparisons with Vietnam. In 2005, he said, "I dont see the parallels." But as this discretionary war has dragged on and on, he has relented. Almost a year ago, he conceded in an interview that the escalation of violence last October might be comparable to the Tet offensive, which marked a turning point in Vietnam. Wednesday Bush is going one step further. In a speech to the VFW in Missouri, Bush will argue that Iraq is like Vietnam ... but unlike Vietnam, we shouldnt pull out because our departure wont stop the killing. [Reminder: he did not serve in Vietnam.] In other words: lets think of Iraq like a mulligan, a do-over: we caused a bloodbath by leaving Vietnam so if we dont leave Iraq, there wont be a bloodbath. Like there isnt a bloodbath already? Bushs Vietnam references suspectclipped by: princessrachel19Clip Source: www.nydailynews.com the slaughter in Vietnam and Cambodia that followed our departure makes the case for why we cant leave Iraq yet. His facts are right about the slaughter, but his lesson is suspect. Its not just that using a single aspect of the tortured Vietnam record to make a contemporary case is a shaky proposition. Its that were making the same mistake in Iraq that LBJ made in Vietnam - were doing for Iraqis what they wont do for themselves. Those damning findings were mitigated only by one conclusion that supported Bush. The report predicted that, if American forces stop policing the civil war in Baghdad to focus on training Iraqis and fighting Al Qaeda, the move "would erode security gains achieved thus far." last January, Bush said it was necessary to give the Iraqi government "breathing room" to forge political reconciliation and get its police and army in fighting shape. Eight months later, its not working, and it wont as long as were doing for Iraqis what they should be doing Für die Inhalte dieses Feeds ist alleine der jeweilige Autor/Anbieter verantwortlich.

Newt Gingrich, The best story concerns Rush Limbaugh, the ferociously bellicose radio personality, who allegedly had either "anal cysts" or an "ingrown hair follicle on his bottom". It is not my custom to mock others ailments, but anyone who has listened to Limbaughs programme can imagine the dripping scorn he would bring to the revelation that a prominent Democrat had skipped a war over something like that. Also, in his case, a pain in the arse is peculiarly appropriate.1

Clipmarks | Vietnam ClipsMembers of Congress That Preach Defeatclipped by: merrieclippers remarks: The continual droning in Congress about the Iraq War and the need for the United States to declare defeat and impeach the judgment of President George W. Bush and our top military commanders, such as General David Petraeus, highlights a deficiency in Congress which rarely is addressed. Only 29% of current United States Senators and 23% of Representatives have served in a branch of the United States Armed Forces. These numbers are down from 1991, the height of the Persian Gulf War, when 68% of Senators and 48% of Representatives had served. After the 2008 election the proportion is likely to decrease again in view of retirements. This is particularly true of those, like Senator John S. McCain III R, who have served in combat. The exception to this statement would be Representative John ?Jack? Murtha D, Chairman of the House Appropriations Defense Subcommittee, who currently is busy paying off his campaign donors with special earmarks that he has no time to be distracted by the Iraq War Clip Source: www.freecongress.org It is true that throughout American history few of those in Congress have served, because the military has been a small and, with few exceptions, all-volunteer. While veterans rarely have represented a majority in Congress, there was, until Vietnam, a great respect for those who had served their country. Most of our Presidents have performed military service. Twelve of the 42 Presidents have been generals. Many Americans are patriotic and support those who are willing to serve in harm?s way and risk the ultimate sacrifice. The problem is that there is a vocal segment of the population, including many in Congress, who are willing to use the military as a political and media football, trying to score political points at the expense of our men and women in uniform. They never suggest alternative strategies for the military that may lead to both victory and an exit. Instead, they spew hatred and arrogance and preach defeat as the only strategy that will work.

Specialists succeeded in producing identifiable images of the man from the original pictures, where his face was a digitally blurred whirl, the international police organization said. Anders Persson, a Swedish police officer who oversees Interpol?s database of images of child abuse, said releasing the photos sent ?a quite clear message? to criminals that they can be identified through Web postings. ?Techniques are always developing.
