Do you think radical groups like movon.org pay people to pose as war veterans to spread their propaganda?

Question

These guys seem to know Cindy Sheehan's play book word for word. Coincidence?

I'm a military wife and we live in a VERY large military area. We also had family serving in Iraq. Not once have I ever ran into another service member who speaks against their duties and their country. Most generally express pride in their service, and know exactly why they were there and WANT to finish the job.

If you search You Tube you'll find over one hundred anti-military, anti-recruitment videos, some look to be professionally made. Some actually have people posing as "war veterans" that are spewing hate with the worst of them, and generally lying about all sorts of atrocities. I now see why Rush Limbaugh called them out on it.

Are they on George Soros' and Clinton's payroll too?

Answer 1

I don't know if they do pay, but it wouldn't surprise me one bit. They latch onto any idiot that would spout that stuff, tout it as "truth", and dare you to deny it. It makes for great "feel-good"drama, which is what the Left is all about - feeling good about putting down other's causes to advance their own. I'm sure the "fake" soldiers are playing into their hands, ( stupid, aren't they? They got their 15 minutes of fame, now are going to jail, some of them, to pay for their fraudulent use of fake military service), and I'm sure MoveOn.gorge will simply slip away, and find more of the same type of simpleton idiots willing to have their moment in the spotlight in exchange for their freedom and some community service.

Answer 2

"Radical organizations like moveon.org"? ROTFL!

*Gasps for air*

Rush Limbaugh called people on it? Oh, the voice of reason! Do listen! He doesn't get paid to keep it as controversial as possible, right? Oh, wait... well, THAT'S all going to 'painkillers' (cocaine). These 'painkillers' (heroin) help him get through the day due to his bad back (withdrawals).

Are you for real? I can't believe the answers you're getting from the Rabid Conservative Front! They're actually saying that there are no liberals in the Army. What next? No liberals work? No liberals allowed to eat at conservative-only establishments? Stoning liberals to death for using their right to free speech?

This is the most brainwashed drivel I've read all day. Living on base in rural Alabama, or wherever you are, you're not GOING to hear what soldiers from all over think. And why even argue the point? Isn't it their lives that matter? Oh, yes, I believe the young men and women in the army are fighting for freedom but their commander-in-chief is well aware that there was never any need to go to Iraq to gain Americans freedom. Oil. Certainly not freedom. According to Bush, America should be free to get all the oil it wants where and whenever it wants and if someone says "Er, no", we have the freedom to kill them and their children. Yay, freedom! Oh, wait... We LOST so many freedoms because of this war, like freedom of PRIVACY and freedom of SPEECH - we've been called 'unpatriotic' for not supporting a war based upon lies and told we're going to hell. Not supporting a war does NOT mean we do not support the troops. That is a conservative myth utilized to brainwash others and spread libel. In other words, it's what Hitler used to do. It is, quite simply, propaganda. That our President should be sending our soldiers into battle to die for absolutely no reason beyond his OWN fanaticism is not only sick and hypocritical, it's downright evil. I would rather see these brave men & women alive then fighting without cause. Have you seen how much America has helped Iraq? See that steadfast democracy in action?

By definition, democracy cannot be forced. Our forefathers would have found this war atrocious and the commander-in-chief a murderer. We have allowed this administration to turn America against the values of its founders and become a theocratic non-democracy where speaking out against the government is highly frowned upon and could - especially if we keep going as we are- lead to punishment or death. *Applause* Go America!

Why does your avatar's style of dress ridicule Muslims? Do you like propaganda too? Do you believe ALL Muslims are bad because of the actions of a few? And do you think it's possible that 65 years ago you may have tattooed the arms of German Jews and forced them into concentration camps?

Really, haven't you LEARNED already? Believing all Muslims are terrorists is exactly the kind of thinking that leads to genocide. You condone this? Ah, why am I bothering? You're not going to give me a real answer anyway. Seems those like you only deal in insults and massive untruths. Might as well sit back and take the beating. I'm sure Bush will give you a get-out-of-jail free card. Torturing liberals is right up his alley.

Answer 3

I don't even know where to begin. Its not that I don't have arguments, but if one is so afraid of leaving the cave (Plato's allegory of the cave), there isn't much to be said is there.

Uh huh. Yes, I see your point.... However, I have done my own research. Yes, I have looked at both sides.... However, I've come to some in-escapable conclusions that are reached no matter what path you take.

Yep, I know you like Ruch and Bill O, but when was the last time you watched anything else?

Personally, I watch C-Span - you know, the facts without selective piecing together of soundbytes, but the whole thing.

Sorry if that's too boring but excitement and fact don't usually align. Facts don't make for good copy when trying to get advertisers with vested interests to pay money.... such is info-TAINMENT (a name given to what we think of as the news for a reason)

Answer 4

He maximum easily is. Lieberman has constantly been an enthusiastic supporter of AIPAC. in fact, for the period of the Congressional hearings with Gen. Patraeus's record on Iraq, it replaced into Lieberman himself, no longer the pro-Iraq occupation conservatives, that reported the placement of springing up a 0.33 front interior the warfare on Terror (tm) by using unilaterally astounding Iran. i do no longer think of naming IRGC as a terrorist entity itself constitutes a "announcement of warfare," in spite of the undeniable fact that it easily facilitates lay the beginning place for development a case against the Iranian regime.

Answer 5

LOL! You keyboard warriors are pathetic. Sign up, go over and serve, wimp. That way you can get some of that war butchering money,whatever moveon.org does is chump change compared to what is spent on slaughtering people.You're also a liar saying don't meet many iraq war veterans opposed to the war, or you don't meet anyone.

Answer 6

Liberals on YAHOO are defending Jesse MacBeth, a fake "soldier" who never made it out of boot camp, yet was utilized by the anti- war left as a "veteran" who agreed with Iraq opponents.

Answer 7

Breaks into wild applause after reading Thrice's post

Answer 8

I think moveon would not be beneath the tactics that you mention. In my mind, a group that could come up with that despicable "General Betray Us" ad in an open environment would be eager to find other venues for their nonsense even if this meant fraud or worse.

Answer 9

In this day and age, I would not be surprised at all to see it. I mean, as despicable as John Kerry is for his actions upon returning from Vietnam, at least he was really there and really served. These people (for the most part) have never served a day in a theater of war and most of them that have been here have disciplinary records as long as my.... well you get the point. It's sad really.

Answer 10

It is a proven FACT that Billionaire George Soros owns the Democrats, and is buying the next American Election with their WILLFUL HELP!
