The baby killer smear from the 60s is the result of the Winter Soldier "investigation" run by the Vietnam Veterans Against the War with Jane Fonda's help.
Wesley Clark has a big part to play in the current smear. He's the "senior leader" for a group called the Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans for America. That group arranged most of the interviews for an article in THE NATION magazine that concluded that unwarranted shootings of Iraqi civilians was rampant.
Their plan is to publish a book called "Collateral Damage" which would be the basis for the babykiller smear against this generation, the way "Winter Solider" smeared the Vietnam generation.
The Iraq Veterans Against the War are modelled after and mentored by the Vietnam Veterans Against the War. The Vietnam Veterans Against the War and their Student Chapter must not be allowed to smear TWO generations of veterans.
Temple Ping!!
These kids need to get a job.
Good grief, our colleges are encouraging men to become like their female counterparts.
Snivelers.
More patriotic Democrats supporting the troops.
SUUUUUURE. Treasonous crapheads.
Were any lying non-”soldiers” like Jesse Macbeth interviewed?
God bless those soldiers who have to make terrible life or death judgements in the blink of an eye, and God d*mn those who seek to denigrate and mock their service to their country.
They are on shaky ground with their dramatization if read up on the trial of Axis Sally.
I hate writing like this. "Literally listening?" As opposed to what ... figuratively listening to the tapes?
Someone needs to do a little investigation on this Herold Noel.
“It’s about the truth.”
There are lies of misrepresentation, whether they be stated falsehoods or lies by ommission.
This isn’t about truth. It is about condemning the war. One of the other actors said (s)he was ignorant about such matters and changed his/her view after doing SOME reading. How much balance was there in the materials presented to this young mind full of mush?
Question authority. Not just the authority of those elected but also of those insisting that you question authority.
NO. They need to be sent to the theater - the REAL one - where they can learn firsthand that which they write about.
That's what an honest writer does - all else is hearsay and/or an attempt to garner 15 minutes of fame on the backs of others...
I hope the fact that it's TEMPLE will not deter righteous attack.
I wonder how many of Rush’s critics have listen to the raw audio tapes. Rush has put them online for free.
I think from now on he should be referenced by his birth name, Jesse al-Zaid.
Michael Moore never has been inside Iraq or Afghanistan, has he? It was a second unit film crew that interviewed Nick Berg in Iraq.
Oh, B.S., you little snot. You know absolutely nothing about the reality of war and you're doing just like the nice lefty professors are teaching you: Lie, twist and distort to support your own lefty-agenda.
I thought Jon Soltz was a truck dispatcher for only like 3-4 months in Iraq? That's hardly a "man of action!"
PHONY STATUS OF SOLDIER ALERT!!!
*note, I did not call him a phony soldier, I called his status phony.
He seems to be quite the media darling and has been found by every liberal media outlet. Is there group or organization that can check out his story?
“What could distinguish these Temple University theater students - humping from class to class, hanging out, diving into bull sessions - from their doubles hunkered down in Baghdad, staring down a blasted Fallujah street, gulping a Coke on a shadeless day?”
“humping from class to class”!!!
Only someone that is absolutely clueless would equate, via the use of the term “humping”, carrying schoolbooks between classes and being out on patrol in Indian country.
