"They are our people"

While the shit-head Army spin-doctors are bellowing about our next great "operation" after "Operation Moshtarak" has completely destroyed the little of Marjah that existed before we arrived with our tanks and artillery and rockets and supersonic bombers and Marines trained to kill with incredible efficiency...

While idiots on the blogs are blathering about the evil Taliban, as if you shit-heads have a right to make life-and-death decisions about Afghanistan...

This man must die, because we say so, we Americans, the stupidest fucking sons-of-bitches on the face of the earth...

We Americans who can't even find Afghanistan on a map...

We Americans who can't speak any of the many, many languages of Afghanistan...

We Americans decide life and death in Afghanistan!

While this whole obscene circus was celebrating the murder of at least another dozen children in Marjah and planning our next great "operation" in Kandahar...

While this obscenely stupid dog-and-pony show was repeating itself for the hundredth or five hundredth time in Afghanistan, after nine goddamned years of our obscenely stupid occupation...

One reporter for the Associated Press actually interviewed a couple of actual citizens of Afghanistan, and one particle of truth somehow found its way into the nauseating ocean of bullshit and outright lies that passes for "reporting" in the United States.

"There is no difference between Taliban and the civilian people. The Taliban are the rural people. They are our people," said Musa Jan, who arrived a week ago from Marjah. He spoke to the AP outside a makeshift warehouse in Lashkar Gah where the government was distributing essentials to war victims.

"The fight was continuing when we were trying to get out," said Jan, who said he paid about $35 for each of the three taxis. "That was all our money, and now we have to come here and beg."

Jan said his neighbors house was bombed by an aircraft, killing five occupants inside, including children.

Sultan Mohammed who fled last Friday from Marjah said he had to walk for several hours before a motorcyclist gave him a lift. He said the Taliban fled when the soldiers came to his area.

"But who are the Taliban? They are the rural people," he said.

Al Qaeda is gone. The "foreign militants" are gone.

Now it's just villagers, rural people, their people, and us...

Their people and us with our tanks and artillery and rockets and supersonic bombers and Marines trained to kill with incredible efficiency.

Another photo... (0.00 / 0)
Although it's almost impossible to find photos that show anything that looks like a town where Marjah is supposed to be, the Indian press service ANI put a reporter in Marjah today and photographed her in front of some of the rubble that is apparently all that remains of that miserable village.
