"Facts are stupid things" - The great Communicator

BONZO GOES TO BITBUR...
raygun.jpgbrcsp8.jpg, image/jpeg, 439x576

1982

>> President Rios Montt is a man of great personal integrity and commitment who wants to improve the quality of life for all Guatemalans, and is getting a "bum rap" on human rights.<<

- praising Guatemala's military dictator, Rios Montt. During 17 months of

Montt's counterinsurgency campaign (1982-83), 400 villages were destroyed,

10,000-20,000 Indians were killed, and over 100,000 were forced to flee to Mexico

1983

>> One hundred nations in the UN have not agreed with us on just about everything that's come before them, where we're involved, and it didn't upset my breakfast at all.<<

- on the US invasion of Grenada

1985

The White House announces that President Reagan will lay a wreath at the Bitburg, West Germany, military cemetery housing the graves of both American and Nazi soldiers. It is quickly noted that there are, in fact, no Americans buried there. President Reagan defends his visit to Bitburg by claiming the German soldiers "were victims, just as surely as the victims in the

concentration camps." Reagan defends the Bitburg visit as "morally right," adding, "I know all the bad things that happened in that war. I was in uniform for four years myself." Reagan had spent his time during World War Two in Hollywood, making training films.

And not only that...

...in 1993 after a UN truth commission, which examined 22,000 atrocities that occurred during the twelve-year civil war in El Salvador, attributed 85 percent of the abuses to the Reagan-assisted right-wing military and its death-squad allies...

These savages were and still are slaughtering each other. Our involvement has zilch to do with it.

Save your tears. You're simply trying to blame the actions of a society of Barbarians on, what a shocker!, America.

As per usual.



It's a racist view

by Barney Sunday, Jun. 13, 2004 at 10:49 PM

This stupid commie terminology "Reagan assisted" or "US assisted". It's a racist view, absolving the people who carried out these crimes of all moral responsibilty and blaming whitey for it all.

FASCISM!!!!!

by sheepdog Sunday, Jun. 13, 2004 at 11:23 PM

Today, not mere moments ago, an oppressed brown child hit another, even more oppressed child of color with a US backed stick.

Let that child's screams echo in every American's ears and heart!

Oh come on

by Sheepdog with a capital 'S' Sunday, Jun. 13, 2004 at 11:56 PM

Please, if you're going to use my handle, capitalize. Sheeesh.

Oh BTW

I'm so popular.

by sheepdog Monday, Jun. 14, 2004 at 12:37 AM

please stop using my handle.

It's oppresive and vile.

I'll call you...

by Sheepdog Monday, Jun. 14, 2004 at 12:41 AM

...sheepdog with a small one then.

Or

by fake sheepdog Monday, Jun. 14, 2004 at 7:46 PM

you can call me by my REAL name: Josiah Hagen.

I get paid by the US government to disrupt this site.

Too bad I'm not any good at it.
