| GRIPES FROM LIEUTENANT McCOWAN This is my "gripe" corner. This will be where I vent my rage at the mass amounts of anti-Americanism and resentment towards my country and my people. As an American, I feel I should be able to defend the values of this country viciously not only with arms, but also my MOUTH as well. This is not meant to be a professional section as it is my opinions and anger channeled through here in order to contain certain feelings...I suggest if you are offended by foul language and slander, you stop here. If not, I warned you...stay low and watch the flak!! |
| 29 April 2003 - STUPIDITY Our troops had a confrontation with Iraqi protestors today that were celebrating Saddam's birthday and pledging their support. The reports say that 13 Iraqi civilians (3 of which were children) were killed, and a large number of others were wounded. Our troops confirmed that they were being fired upon from within the crowd, but the Iraqis say the attack was unprovoked and a PEACEFUL demonstation (tires screeching)....well, if THAT's the case then explain to me why unidentified Iraqis were carrying fully-automatic AK-47s within the crowd! Now, anyone with a shred of COMMON SENSE knows that terrorists enjoy hiding amongst the civilian population, causing havoc against our peacekeeping forces causing them to return fire into the crowd and hit civilians...of course the rest of the world doesn't acknowledge this...it's OUR FAULT. What's worse is that these Iraqis with AK-47s were FIRING them in the air in celebration! To the Iraqi morons who decided to leave their brains at home: Just how f*cking STUPID can you be?? Knowing that U.S. troops patrol your streets ready to fire at any imminent threat, you decided to SHOOT your weapons in the AIR less than 100 feet from our troops?? I don't know what we should spend more money on...rebuilding your damn country or improving your GENETICS! Our troops are there for your security...they're not there to be f*cked with. I'm sorry, but if you're that stupid, you deserve to eat a bullet. The only shame I have is that we wasted a perfectly good round. What amazes me even more is the fact that y'all brought your KIDS to a violent demonstration, KNOWING fully that there was the possiblity of a combat situation arising....and the rest of the world accuses us of humanitarian violations?? I have one thing to say to the anti-American activists and supporters who think our soldiers are a bunch of undisciplined murderers...the only reason our soldiers returned fire was because they were thinking about their families and friends that they want to see when they get back home, and they're not going to let some "Allahu Akbar," AK-47 wielding assholes take their lives...so go f*ck yourself. 1 May 2003 - Bias runs THICK within PROTESTORS It just occurred to me...do you realize that the only time the protestors come out is when the United States is considering or undergoing some sort of action across the globe? It just goes to show you how American-biased most protestors really are...what's even more sickening is that it includes my own fellow Americans in some cases. I totally respect their right to protest the war and everything that goes with it...even though I may not agree with their stance. HOWEVER, I must ASK all protestors of U.S. action: WHY is it that you only protest the actions that my government carries out and no other? WHY does no one protest against the violence that the Palestinians use against the Israelis with suicide bombers? WHY does no one protest against NORTH KOREA who admits to nuclear weapons and is willing to USE them? WHY didn't you protest the Islamic Extremists who MURDERED 3,000 American citizens and foreign nationals on 9/11? WHY didn't you protest against Slobedan Milosevic and his genocidal tendencies during the Kosovo war? WHY didn't you protest against Saddam Hussein when he GASSED thousands of his own people, Kurds and Shi'ites, with CHEMICAL WEAPONS in 1993? WHY didn't you protest against Saddam Hussein once again when he GASSED Iranian soldiers during the Iran-Iraq War of 1988? WHY didn't you protest Pol Pot when he killed 25% of the Cambodian population simply because they had contact with the West? WHY must you be so blind and so biased that you feel the only threat comes from the United States? It amazes me how people can think the U.S. government is worse than Saddam Hussein's regime or Kim Jong-Il's regime. To see people put the swatztika on the American flag...to see people compare Bush to Hitler...to call us (and this one STINGS the MOST) a terrorist nation...this is wrong, and if the rest of the world thinks Americans are going to put up with this bullsh*t, they're gravely mistaken. |
