Anti-Imperialist Veterans ask:
Can We Oppose This War
While We "Support the Troops"?

http://www.oz.net/~vvawai/support.html


TROOPS
A troop is an invention of the military,
A battlefield commodity to be used and discarded
Like a spent shell casing.
A troop obeys without question,
It does not ponder the significance
Of the Nuremburg Principles.

A troop is an invention of the military.
It may be given a nerve gas "antidote"
Which will allow it to fight a while longer,
But will not keep it from dying.
It may be given experimental drugs
Without its permission.

A troop is an invention of the military.
It may be sent home in an HRP
(Human Remains Pouch),
Or wheeled away on a gurney
To fill a bed recently cleared
Of troops from the previous war.

A troop is an invention of the military.
A dead troop is a "casuality" if from the U.S.,
Or "collateral damage" if from Iraq.
It may be male or female
(the war is an equal opportunity killer).
A troop is the property of the military.


• No Support for Killing the Iraqi People

• Stop the War on Iraq! - The Iraqi People are our Sisters and Brothers!

• Support the Troops Who Do the Right Thing - Support GI Resistance!


*Veterans Call to Conscience to Active Duty Troops and Reservists Statement signed by over a thousand veterans calling on troops to do the right thing. http://www.calltoconscience.net or write VVAWAI for info.

I don't follow your point in commenting to me with your links and all. Perhaps you were just randomnly commenting here, this thread and not to something I wrote here?

I don't follow as to whom you refer in this line you wrote:

"Thir sites are about treson and insurrectionmn against the US!!"

Who is "thir" (not the typo, but your intent as to 'their sites').

I think it's entirely false to attempt to premise that "(someone) supports our troops but oppose(s) the war (any war)."

It's an attempt to excuse political positions and thereby enable them, but it has nothing to do with supporting troops, only opposing military action. Which, in effect, is opposing troops deployed.
