wars that are unconstitutional. A president who is a usurper of the office. Rigged elections. Propaganda corporate media. Soldiers who only join for the money out of poverty. Then we ask why all these suicides.

Its all part of the RedSheild false debt - tax slave system, parents when will you stop offering your children up as tribute sacrafice to these bank criminals?

Enlightened disengagment the weapon of choice when a critical mass reject this false national debt slave financial system war will no longer be the powerful debt tool used to enslave.

troops, but then vote in these warmongers! If one supports our troops, they would be vigilant in keeping them from war! War should be a very last resort! I speak out as much as I possibly can for our Veterans, they do not get the help they need, nor the respect they deserve. I'm so thankful Ron Paul has brought this issue to light.

God bless the Veterans!

More suicidal deaths

Submitted by alaney on Mon, 04/30/2012 - 10:05.

than combat deaths? That's quiet a scathing indictment of our warring policy. Where is the sanity? Americans actually think this is about spreading "democracy". Yeah, right. It's about resource grabbing for corporate control, who in turn, financially support the very politicians who authorize the adventures. Poor soldiers. They never saw the corruption coming.

Submitted by CRinMI on Mon, 04/30/2012 - 09:44.

This is the most pertinent issue of our time. IMO.

I think this one issue will give us a great deal of leverage against the foreign invader now occupying our White House.

The wars MUST end and will end either by making the morally sound choice to do so or when the money runs out. The latter bestows no affirmation of virtue and the former will speak to our nation's shame if left unaccomplished.

Anything to help them.

Submitted by sharkhearted on Mon, 04/30/2012 - 00:25.

Ex-neocon here. I am moved by the constant vigilance which you guys have kept...the 24/7 watch...in all these years when the rest of us were asleep to the dangers against Lady Libery and the message of Ron Paul...to always try to protect those most vulnerable.

You long term RP'ers are wonderful, wonderful individuals.

[I remember standing in line with all of the hoodlums who had never voted before but came to vote for Obama in 2008 and of course my dumbass vote was for McCain...but I remember seeing the RP signs and it made an impression on me....'who is this guy?'.]

Back to protecting the most vulnerable....

Interestingly, some of the most 'vulnerable' are not just the women and children collateral damage in these wars...but also the troops themselves...who become embroiled in a M.I.C. power struggle...and who never signed up for the BS that has become the modern Neocon M.I.C.

Who is looking out for these guys who are the victims of that??? Certainly not NATO or the Pentagon.

But the rag-tag band of antiwar protesters solidified by Ron Paul and also emboldened by the late GREAT Pat Tillman and his brother....are a start.

A BIG start....

RON PAUL 2012.

Ron Paul, the 5th Element..comes through again

Submitted by sharkhearted on Sun, 04/29/2012 - 23:41.

Those statistics about military suicides are heartbreaking....and eye-opening.

Hey M.I.C!!

F-u-*-k you.

Your days are numbered.

You have enslaved and sent to their death (either by direct battle...or the PTSD battle that follows)...ENOUGH of our peers, our children, and grandchildren.

YOUR DAYS ARE NUMBERED...you co*k-s*ckers.

You instill in me a rage that did not exist before.

No matter. In my rage I will not annihilate you...but let you pass.

I will concentrate on the fight...and that is:

Ron Paul...or no one at all.

That was heartbreaking. Americans need to KNOW this--really HEAR it--and understand how wrong it is..
It is wrong, morally, intellectually, religiously, philosophically, politically, and probably any other -ly that I left out..
