Following the 9/11 attacks Americans were rightfully saddened and angered by the murder of their fellow countrymen, even though most of us didn’t personally know anyone who lost their lives. Many of us ‘answered the call’ for years to come to ‘ensure it never happened again’. In the year after 9/11, more people joined the military than in any year since.
Many, like myself, intentionally joined the infantry. Whatever the ‘reason’, we chose to ‘be in the fight’. My fellow grunts, the honest ones with functioning brains, can recognize that if exposed to a fraction of the oppression that Palestinians face they would fight too. We can look at our founders, and see DEFINITIVE proof that they would fight with MUCH less provocation.
The oft pushed narrative that Palestinians are the ‘aggressor’ is simply one of the many lies meant to earn your apathy or worse, your support for the zionist oppressors. It is to distract from the fact that Palestinians are fighting for their God given rights, rights that ANY self respecting human being would fight for (more details in ‘related articles’ below). The right to resist oppression is also a human right, it is fundamental to our own nation’s founding and it is echoed in international agreements.
Americans, probably most men throughout the world, often fantasize or at least romanticize ‘going out in a blaze of glory’. Among those that consider themselves patriots, “Give me Liberty or give me death” is an oft repeated motto. Would we live by this motto? I hope we never truly have to find out. I hope the ongoing erosion of liberty is stopped & reversed before we have to find out.
However, if down the road in a fight for our liberty, we find ourselves missing an arm from a government tank shelling us, sitting in a bombed out building on a dusty chair as we bleed out. I hope we all have the strength of will to throw rubble at the government drone sent to finish us off.
Give me Liberty, or give me Death.
