How The Democratic Party Is Like The
Republican Party
by Ron Corvus
1. Both parties want to keep a U.S. troop
presence in the Middle East.
2. Both parties believe terrorists attacked
us on 9/11 because they hate our freedoms and lifestyle.
3. Both parties support terrorist nation
Israel and Israel's forty-year long illegal occupation of Palestine.
4. Both parties believe they have the right
to hunt down and kill Muslims and Arabs who disagree with U.S. foreign
policy.
5. Both parties believe they have a right to
militarily occupy sovereign nations to "protect America."
6. Both parties do not want the American
people to find out why terrorists target America for terrorist attacks.
7. Both parties do not respect the American
rule of law and our constitution.
8. Both parties want to impose their choice
of government upon foreigners who do not WANT their form of government.
9. Both parties believe the solution to
terrorism against America is to kill more terrorists.
10. Both parties believe they can bomb, shoot
and militarily occupy their way to "Homeland Security."
11. Both parties lie to the American people
all day, every day, 24/7/365.
I'm fed up with the Democratic
Party. I'm pissed at the Democratic Party for abandoning
Democratic principles in favor of a fascist state hellbent on destroying
Israel's enemies - for cash, contracts and someone else's oil and gas.
I'm fed up with so-called Democratic websites banning folks who
post messages explaining the truth about the Middle East and these
pro-war Democratic candidates. I was on a Democratic website (Democratic
Underground) and I was banned for taking the position that we shouldn't
have a military presence in the Middle East - the bloggers who argued
with me were Edwards supporters, who argued Edwards is right - we must
keep a military presence in the Middle East. Obama and Clinton
supporters argue the same, exact thing: those voters and their
candidates believe they must maintain some kind of U.S. military
presence in the Middle East: including, but not limited to:
-
strike forces
-
reaction forces
-
installation forces
-
force protection forces
-
residual forces
Hillary, Obama and Edwards all promise to
keep U.S. military forces in Muslim and Arab nations to kill at will -
who do they want to kill? Anyone they deem and call: "al Qaeda." The
western term "al Qaeda" is used by the U.S. government and these pro-war
politicians to describe anyone opposing U.S. foreign policy. Hillary,
Obama and Edwards believe they have the right to tell foreigners on
foreign land what to do and how to do it. Hillary, Obama and Edwards all
believe in the neocon ideology that if we don't fight them over there,
we'll have to fight them over here. This is the worst kind of
fear-mongering and political tactics designed to marshall support for
further U.S.-Israeli military interventions, military occupations and
control. The Israelis inside the Bush administration have successfully
made Israel's problems, America's problems. This is why thousands of
Israelis cheered in Israel on 9/11, when those Israelis
watched the Twin Towers burn - then they knew America would help Israel
destroy Israel's enemies. For years, Israelis were jealous of America's
freedom - freedom from terrorist attacks. 9/11 was the answer to Israeli
prayers.
If Hillary, Obama and Edwards were
corporations, they would be sued and fined for false advertising. They
all promise to withdraw America from Iraq - they're lying. The proof is
in their own words. Go read their websites; go watch their videos; go
ask them; they will all tell you that the U.S. must keep "limited" U.S.
forces in the Middle East. And what about the huge problem of the
private security force called "Blackwater?" There are over 150,000
Blackwater army men in Iraq - Hillary, Obama and Edwards won't touch
that issue with a ten-foot pole - just try. Americans need to realze,
those U.S. security forces are there in Iraq to keep Iraqis from killing
U.S. contractors - because if the security forces are withdrawn, then so
goes the contractors, and POOF! no more big contracts for the
professional war profiteers.
A vote for Hillary, Obama or Edwards is a
vote to keep U.S. military forces in Iraq and the Middle East.
A vote for Hillary, Obama or Edwards is a
vote to keep sending billions of our tax dollars to Israel.
A vote for Hillary, Obama or Edwards is a
vote to keep caskets at Dover Air Force Base.
A vote for Hillary, Obama or Edwards is a
vote to keep disregarding our U.S. laws and constitution proscribing
such unlawful conduct on the part of elected officials.
A vote for Hillary, Obama or Edwards is a
vote against America and what America is supposed to stand for.
