Best News I’ve Heard All Month
As reported in The Raw Story, Canadian Parliament ”voted to allow US resisters of the Iraq war who fled to Canada to stay in this country, thus avoiding military court-martial in the United States.” This is great news to parents of teenagers in America.
In consideration of America’s focus on a New Century of Anglican, Christian Dominance regarding oil producing nations, contrasted by it’s inability to recruit foolish youngsters, I can only surmise a culture of Patriotic-blinded youngsters forces into military draft. My daughter, regardless of her knowing better, is of ripe age for our Great Country to exploit. She’ll be 18 in October. I would fight on the street to prevent my offspring from becoming a pawn of the military-industrial complex. I would give my life to prevent such an outcome.
Street Fighting may be the only way to avoid such catastrophes. Surely the “wisdom” of our elected officials can’t prevent further destruction of the youth that represents America’s future. We have the “Best Government Money Can Buy.” Even my admiration of Obama can’t disguise the fact that he is “bought and paid for” as much as any other candidate. Never would he get as far has he has without the stamp of corporate acceptance.
I can only be proved wrong by one event - and I do not condone this - a bullet, well aimed. Surely this is Hillary’s only chance, as she has outlined.
Regardless who ascends to the White House, A military draft is the only answer to an advanced strategic conflict that involves Iraq, Afghanistan, and Iran. Especially in consideration of the current administration’s inability to plan it’s way out of a paper bag…
The only way for the Dominuist Christians to continue their fantasy of World Domination, is on the hides of my Daughter’s Generation. I will die before that happens. In light of the fact that I’m a Buddhist peace-nik, this is the one and only cause that I would fight for. No Freaking Way you’re sacrificing my child’s life for corporate gain - No Way!
We’ll all run to Canada first. Barring that, I’ll meet you in the streets.
