You are a sick man. Your words are disgsuting, to accuse the family of fighting men of aiding and abetting the enemy because you don't like what they say says a lot about you as an American.
It would be more accurate to have said, "the relatives are being used by the MSM to aid......"
LS meant the right thing but used the wrong words.
LS is absolutely right. Words from relatives are easily twisted into propoganda used to aid and abet the enemy. That is a simple fact of war, and one of the most often used forms of propoganda. Unfortunately, our media usually does the enemy's work for it by twisting the heartfelt sorrow of family members to damage our war effort. LS is not sick. What is sick are members of our media who stakeout the homes of family members of fallen heroes, often times before the names of the fallen have been officially released. THAT is sick.
You are a lot sicker, for using spin & distortion against good FReeper LS. I agree totally they are being used by our enemies. That is said against their judgement in cooperating with the Lib Media, not about their good intentions.
And you sir are an ignorant fool if you do not understand the propaganda that is going on. Those in the main stream media do not care about the loved ones of the family, only that they can use them as a prop for their agenda. An agenda that aids those that wish us dead.
Think this through, who will benefit if the main stream media is allowed to weaken the resolve of the American people? The enemy wins.
What is going to happen if we pull out of Iraq too soon? Those that wish us dead will learn a valuable lesson, cause enough pain and suffering and the United States will surrender.
The war in Viet Nam was lost in the living rooms of the United States not in the rice patties of Viet Nam. The main stream media border on treason with their constant distoration of what is going on.
The use of grieving family members serve only one purpose, to weaken the resolve of the American people.
The difference between Viet Nam and Iraq is if we did pull out, the war will not be over. More Americans, only now on our own soil will die.
This war started many years ago, it is only recently that we began to think of it as war. If we go back to the way it was, we will have more terrorism not less.
No, to think that they are not aiding and abetting he enemy shows us what kind of american you are. Not much of one. To go on tv and bad mouth the country and the war causes the terrorists to toughen up their resolve, just as it did in Vietnam, therefore they keep fighting because they think we will give up. This causes more troops to die. Thus they are aiding and abetting the enemy, the people who killed their sons and daughters.
