The ‘Agent Orange’ of these occupations, that’s literally as some of these soldiers are suffering from exactly the same extreme physical ailments of the same chemicals, and more, of the defoliants only this time they were sucking in smoke and air from these burn pits, as are the citizens occupied and especially downwind and the ground contamination left from the burns!
Ailing vets sue over smoke from trash fires in Iraq, Afghanistan

Brit War Inquiry EXPLODES with Damning Testimony! Will the Chilcot group take this and remove the somewhat gentlemanly gloves of questioning so far and get tougher, will it also bring about a re-questioning of earlier participants, like Blair and company, who might have thought they were through with their spinning of facts! Will documents not intended for public view suddenly become very public to answer what isn’t known but said only behind closed doors!

I really like that descriptive name used as to Mr Blair, fits him well, editorial link for same below along with others.
Will the statements open up what others will say or bring forward as they might try and distance themselves from him?

Obama CAN NOT lose something that is already lost.
Short diary, but worth discussing.
I WANT TO KILL THIS MEME NOW!
Meme: Obama might lose Afghanistan without surge
NEW RULE: Idiots who were wrong about Iraq DON’T GET to give any more unvise about what the military should do.
Bush and Republicans LOST AFGHANISTAN the Minute they moved the debate to Iraq, like idiots.
Unvice = crappy advise from people who are always WRONG
.
Republicans, Joe Lieberman and the MIC want more war, and they want it bad. No strategy, no exit plan, just give us more troops and money or the Country is DOOMED, I say, DOOMED. And then the terrorists will win, they’ll get WMD’s, the Taliban will get stronger and al Qaeda will attack us again.
Blah, Blah, Blah, I’ve heard this bullshit before.
To which my answer to the Unxperts are: Didn’t you say that about Iraq?
More Sunday ranting below the fold

Two short discussions, reports, about the Domestic Terrorist within, the known and unknown Militia’s, and the connection to those packin in Phoenix and elsewhere, in the large crowds for a Presidential Visit. With Children in that crowd! Incompetent gunowners misusing their interpretation of the Laws, and their total lack of common sense and civility in a civil society, as well as using those Children and the Crowd of Innocent Civilians as Human Shields should anything happen, making the possibility of that easier, looking an awful lot like Insurgents and Criminal Terrorist in our Wars of Choice, or those label as Terrorist anywhere!!

Originally I was going to postup on a report out of Vietnam, that I received, as to ‘Agent Orange’, a few days back.
But War brings alot of negative results, very few positives, especially in conflicts of choice built on lies and the occupations that result, often having the invading country placing a supportive government in place as they remain the occupiers.
I’ll get to the information on Agent Orange in a moment, but before that I’d like to update some other news on the Remnants of War.
