Mad Goons Disease?

by Atticus Finch Thursday, Jan. 01, 2004 at 3:22 PM

Special Report

Report

A team of psychologists recently reported that thousands of US troops in Iraq have been infected with a rare mental disease. The symptoms are: 1) extreme violent behavior; 2) inability to reason or think independently; 3) rotting of the brain; 4) cowardice

After the psychologists became aware of the recent outbreak of ‘mad cows disease’ in the US they decided to investigate the possibility that these troops contracted this rare mental disease from eating beef.

The US military buys large quantities of beef from US slaughterhouses for members of the armed forces. This meat is almost never inspected. It’s often mixed with cow brains, spinal cords, butt holes, etc.

The troops have now been tested and the results are not good. It’s been determined they were infected by mad cow meat. When one of the psychologists was asked to identify the disease, she referred to it as ‘mad goons disease’.

Readers, if you know of any yanqui goons who exhibit any of the above symptoms, please call 800-MAD-GOON or email us at USOUTOFIRAQ@ANTIWAR.COM

by Max Thursday, Jan. 01, 2004 at 3:57 PM

"1) extreme violent behavior; 2) inability to reason or think independently; 3) rotting of the brain; 4) cowardice"

It tends to accelerate in infected individuals, atrophy their mental coherency, cause violant outbusts and fits of red-faced shaky finger pointing rants, coupled with the debilitating effects of spouting various lies, obfuscations, and bouts of extreme paranoia.

It's called "Liberalism".

The whole pathetic Democratic party is ate up with it...

You always know when you're winning a debate on IMC by how quickwits attack the grammar in spite of the substance.

"Ate up with it" happens to be Southern slang. I'm from the south, ergo, I tend to indulge in the rudimentary pontifications and expressive panaches of those quaint folk with the reddest of necks.

Put that in you spellchecker and smoke it.

Very little.

These institutions may have operated and profitted within these failed societies after the fact, but to say that they are in any way the cause of the failure is ridiculous.

I know it's very important for you to believe that, if not for the intervention and manipulation of evil entities like the CIA and World bank, that any of these third world societies would be bustling prosperous examples of success, but that's simply fantasy.

All cultures and societies are simply not equal. Some succeed, some lanquish and some prosper.

That's just how life works.

You've proven my point.

To whatever degree the CIA was involved with these and other cesspools is the degree to which they helped American interests by changing the guard from one despot to another. Neither of these states was anything even remotely resembling a democracy. They were stalled. They still are. Look at the damage in Iran from the earthquake for Christ's sake. These people are still living in mud huts with concrete roofs. Not exactly modern.

Face it. These cultures have been fucked for millenia.

As for Isreal. Goddamn right it needs a wall. Being the only successful and democratic industrialized society in the entire middle east, it IS a bit of a target for it's neighbors who absolutely despise Jews and progress.

And as for stolen land. The only land that was ever stolen from the so-called "palestinians" was the land that could have been their state in 1948. But alas, the noble arabs of Egypt, Syria and Jordan helped themselves to that land.

Israel of course, gained the land, by all rights, in 1967 when these same savage states tried, spectacularly unsuccessfully I might add, to destroy Isarel.

So yeah. The wall is needed until the "palestinians" can evolve and refrain from wholesale murder which is the cornerstone of their culture.
