"The essential act of war is destruction, not necessarily of human
lives, but of the products of human labour. War is a way of
shattering to pieces, or pouring into the stratosphere, or sinking
in the depths of the sea, materials which might otherwise be used to
make the masses too comfortable, and hence, in the long run, too
intelligent. Even when weapons of war are not actually destroyed,
their manufacture is still a convenient way of expending labour
power without producing anything that can be consumed".
George
Orwell, ‘1984’
“Whether war is a necessary factor in the evolution
of mankind may be disputed, but a fact which cannot be questioned is
that, from the earliest records of man to the present age, war has
been his dominant preoccupation. There has never been a period in
human history altogether free from war, and seldom one of more than
a generation which has not witnessed a major conflict: great wars
flow and ebb almost as regularly as the tides. This becomes more
noticeable when a civilization ages and begins to decay, as
seemingly is happening to our world-wide industrial civilization.
Whereas but a generation or two back, war was accepted as an
instrument of policy, it has now become policy itself.”
General
J.F.C. Fuller, 1954
The Bush/Cheney
Butcher’s Bill: Officially, 74 US
Military Deaths in Iraq and Afghanistan from 1 September 2006 –
29 September 2006- Official Total of 2,994
US dead to date (and rising) The actual total of dead
American military personnel is now over 15,000
and also rising and the number of seriously wounded is now ca 27,000.
It should be noted that the death
toll in August, 2006, was one of the highest and to date, the toll
is higher than usual….ed
by Brian Harring, Domestic Intelligence Reporter brianharring@yahoo.com
Mr. President, why
don’t you pull out…like your father should have? Brian Harring
Note: There is excellent
reason to believe that the Department of Defense is deliberately not
reporting a significant number of the dead in Iraq. We have
received copies of manifests from the MATS that show far more bodies
shipped into Dover AFP than are reported officially. The actual
death toll is in excess of 10,000. (See the official records
at the end of this piece.) Given the officially acknowledged number
of over 15,000 seriously wounded (and a published total of 25,000
wounded overall,), this elevated death toll is far more realistic
than the current 2,000+ now being officially published. When our
research is complete, and watertight, we will publish the results
along with the sources In addition to the evident falsification of
the death rolls, at least 5,500 American military personnel have
deserted, most in Ireland but more have escaped to Canada and
other European countries, none of whom are inclined to cooperate
with vengeful American authorities. (See TBR News of 18 February for
full coverage on the mass desertions) This means that of the 158,000
U.S. military shipped to Iraq, 26,000 deserted, were killed
or seriously wounded. The DoD lists currently being very quietly
circulated indicate over12,000 dead, over 25,000 seriously
wounded and a large number of suicides, forced hospitalization
for ongoing drug usage and sales, murder of Iraqi civilians and
fellow soldiers, rapes, courts martial and so on -
The
government gets away with these huge lies because they claim,
falsely, that only soldiers actually killed on the ground in Iraq
are reported. The dying and critically wounded are listed as en
route to military hospitals outside of the country and not
reported on the daily postings. Anyone who dies just as the
transport takes off from the Baghdad airport is not listed and
neither are those who die in the US military hospitals. Their
families are certainly notified that their son, husband, brother or
lover was dead and the bodies, or what is left of them
(refrigeration is very bad in Iraq what with constant power outages)
are shipped home, to Dover AFB. This, we note, was the overall
policy until very recently. Since it became well known that many had
died at Landstuhl, in Germany, the DoD began to list a very few
soldiers who had died at other non-theater locations. These numbers
are only for show and are pathetically small in relationship to the
actual figures. You ought to realize that President Bush personally
ordered that no pictures be taken of the coffined and flag-draped
dead under any circumstances. He claims that this is to comfort the
bereaved relatives but is designed to keep the huge number of
arriving bodies secret. Any civilian, or military personnel, taking
pictures will be jailed at once and prosecuted. Bush has never
attended any kind of a memorial service for his dead soldiers and
never will. He is terrified some parent might curse him in front of
the press or, worse, attack him. As Bush is a terrible physical
coward and in a constant state of denial, this is not a surprise.
