Support our Robots

Support our Robots

Well, I suppose we won't have to worry as much about the safety of our invading, marauding army. We can "support our Robots" instead, as unmanned planes, named, appropriately, The Reaper, murders Iraqis, destroys more homes and "secret insurgent hideouts" ( among their families, friends and other non-combatants, in Iraq), and secures the area for Truth, Justice, and the American Way (massive oil consumption, militarism, predatory Corporatism, racism and all the rest).

This is not about "honor or bravery or sacrifice," any more than Hiroshima or Nagasaki had been. It's pure cowardice, killing without having to put "our" troops in harms way. "Support our troops" indeed. But we know what we are, so why fight our own selfish, cowardly, murderous intent? Must a dog learn to meow or a cat bark? Why pretend we're something we're not? "We" didn't create the largest military on earth because we're decent, peace-loving, democratic do-gooders.
