Disturbing Reality of War

topic posted Fri, August 5, 2005 - 10:58 AM by  Holly
You neocons do not want to believe that killing is wrong if it's killing to benefits yourselves... but have a look at the disturbing reality to get the truth!! That's the thing about truth... most people don't like it. But it IS happening... and YOU have the power to stop it.

Look at that and tell me this war is good. Those aren't criminals... those are innocent citizens. Collateral damage for the corporate/government business venture.

Don't you see that you "christians" aren't being very Christian at all?

    There is a lot of wrongs going on in Iraq but to search for truth in this situation you must look at both sides. You are only showing the negative. There are disturbing realities in all situations but even though its for, as you say, Corporations there is good being done as well. There will always be a balance. If you look close enough you will see it. The question to people is if the cost is worth it. I cannot answer that because there is too much information out there I don't know. (Both positive and negative). Also to stereotype all Christians into a single group of people, well it just makes it easier to dehumanize them. Passion is a great tool of change, but passion misplaced is just another weapon of distruction!

      This Tribe isn't about arguing, or discussing, or brow beating, or wondering, or pondering, or debating, or being held at a complete stand still without action because "well this and this and that and that so let's do nothing at all because we fear change".

      This tribe is about people who see the truth, and want to do something about it. Hence the name DISSENT. People who want to question the fallable, greedy, evil war monger government at every turn before they destory us. It is about declaring the government the enemy of the people, for those of us who have the same mindset and want to make a serious change in this culture. A revolution, a renaissance.

      Don't side with the government that is now run by corporations. Side with the PEOPLE the poor people, the ones who are defensless against those in power... no matter what nationality... protect them and defend them when everyone else is busy being enslaved as a corporate tool, too distracted by the mundane details and rushing around of thier own lives to care what happens to anyone else.

        Oh and... It isn't all Christians... some Christians actually follow the ways of Christ... but most of them are greedy, gossipy, angry, hateful people trying to force everyone else to live the way the Christians believe they should, even if it means they have to kill other people to do it. Oh they don't want abortion but they will let a 1 yr old baby die because his mommy doesn't have enough money for medical bills. Oh and no one else can sin except for them because they are Christian so it's ok....

        But that is beside the point... it is not about Christianity at all.. it's about the American people getting brainwashed into believing that church and state are one in the same... that God and Government are one in the same... That the greedy old men in power who screw the regular honest working American to pursue thier own agendas should never be questioned and allowed to get away with whatever they want, even if they are embezzling billions of dollars stolen from Iraq, and the Iraqi people...

        Why do people NOT keep these evil people in check?? Just because they are in a position in power does not make them good and they caught in lies, caught stealing and no one does anything anymore...

        If all this happened in the 60's there would be protests twice as dramatic and large as the ones in the Vietnam era.
