The enemy is America.

I know of the quote. I also understand that you are engaging in one dimensional propoganda. k.

"I spent thirty-three years and four months in active service in the country's most agile military force, the Marines. I served in all ranks from second lieutenant to major general. And during that period I spent most of my time being a high-class muscle man for Big Business, for Wall Street and the bankers. In short, I was a racketeer, a gangster for capitalism. "I suspected I was just part of a racket at the time. Now I am sure of it. Like all members of the military profession I never had an original thought until I left the service. My mental faculties remained in suspended animation while I obeyed the orders of the higher-ups. This is typical with everyone in the military service. "Thus I helped make Mexico, and especially Tampico, safe for American oil interests in 1914. "I helped make Haiti and Cuba a decent place for the National City Bank boys to collect revenue in. I helped in the raping of half-a-dozen Central American republics for the benefit of Wall Street. The record of racketeering is long. I helped purify Nicaragua for the international banking house of Brown Brothers and Co. in 1909-1912. I brought light to the Dominican Republic for the sugar interests in 1916. I helped make Honduras 'right' for American fruit companies in 1903. In China in 1927 I helped see to it that Standard Oil went its way unmolested. "During those years, I had, as the boys in the back room would say, a swell racket. I was rewarded with honors, medals, and promotion. Looking back on it, I feel that I might have given Al Capone a few hints. The best he could do was to operate a racket in three city districts. The Marines operated on three continents." —Maj. Gen. Smedley Butler (former Commandant, U.S. Marine Corps), Common Sense, November 1935 Do you actually believe anything has changed, I hope in time you will see that you are what "the racket" want and need you to be. Good work!!

War paralyzes your courage and deadens the spirit of true manhood. It degrades and stupefies with the sense that you are not responsible, that 'tis not yours to think and reason why, but to do and die,' like the hundred thousand others doomed like yourself. War means blind obedience, unthinking stupidity, brutish callousness, wanton destruction, and irresponsible murder.

I can cleary see here that the first casualty of war is certainly the truth.

Well I see this page has been asleep for some time. Not sure if anyone will ever read this. Whereas Canada is founded on the principles that recognise the supremecy of God and the rule of law. In regards to the Canadian Charter of Rights All babies and children are amongst the most innocent and fragile in our world. Autism or not they need and deserve our greatest nurturing. Our Charter and associated statutes have elements built into them to protect those who are the most vulnerable in our country. I believe this is the core mandate of a document like this. The Canadian govenment is attempting to assemble a National Autism Strategy here is the link for the full transcript http://www.parl.gc.ca/39/1/parlbus/commbus...es=1&comm_id=47 I read it and I liked the fact that the Senators are hearing from many factions in the ASD world. That's all for now.

Speaking of spending money. You should go out and buy an atlas. Iraq is not in Afganistan. Canada is in a war in Afganistan. Last time I checked anyway.

I have seen many opinions expressed on this board, most are quite compelling. Many people with many opinions, good to see. Sometimes we tend to over analyze these events and read more into them than necessary. Our Prime Minister is well handled. lets not forget his roots in the Reform Party. Clearly he and his handlers are no more than lapdogs to the US / Bush gang. The whole thing is a lie. We have to get our troop numbers up to qualify in NATO. And hey war is good for business. What have we spent so far on this illegal undertaking? I hear we are closing in on two billion. How can an Afgan in Afganistan be an insurgent? How come the P.M. never comes on national television and tells us the game plan ? any game plan. All successful organizations have weekly or monthly meetings with everyone including the company principles to discuss the state and future plans of the organization. Why do we as citizens not demand this from our leader? It's a simple question. Hello Steve ... whats going on now and in the future for Canada + Canadians? Remember "ignore your rights. and they will go away".
