I did street outreach to the homeless in western US for 15 yaars saving 70-80 lives in 5,500 contacts. What amazed me more than anything else was how easy it was for the rest of you to just walk by and not help out enough. Now we face an aging population, 1 major generation of heavily traumatized youth, returning combat veterans again, and an increasing homeless population. We have developed a constitutionally compatible housing plus services system in Seattle, WA and Vancouver BC that has a five year track record of working so well that the republicans and republicrats defunded it or screwed it up so bad that people don't use it. How is it fixed? you get people before they end up in prison for way too long, and you protect, rather than legislate away privacy protection (encrypt personal financial and medical information). What is missing? Brook amendment housing that says that rent is no more than 1/4 income, no income, no rent if a person can not defend themselves or take care of themselves adequately. This provides stable housing and a bottom up economic stimulus too. I am preparing to take advantage of a partial collapse in the housing market; foundation of Bush's undead frankenstein economy. Can you find: 1) Bastyr university (stress diet) 2) Violent Politics, Empowering Liberation; US Drug Wars in Cultural Perspective. 3) July/august 1998 NACLA; Report on the americas 4) The Franklin Coverup by John Decamp 5) June 19th New York Times on Global Child Torture Network.

My father was a veteran who left because like this medic guy the other night, he just wasn't a killer. I love my father still, even though he does not acknowledge how much pain he has from having to take crap from zealous killers and bosses. I have come to some basic conclusions regarding 9/11. The mossad was there, guiliani, bloomberg, and silverstein colluded with Bush in an attempted $7 billion insurance fraud reduced to $4.5 bil, 25 witnesses survived and spoke out about the bottom up controlled demolition they witnessed on all three towers, 1300 civilians and 12 firefighters died in the collapse of one tower because of comm failures (radiosilencefdny.com), the girders didn't fail because they were insulated by 12 inches+ of concrete (fire couldn't heat up metal hot enough at all, the buildings had to be blown), 15,000 civilians health problems don't count enough to be mentioned in mainstream TV, and Bush, who is not worthy of the name president having stolen two elections electronically, planned on going into iraq from the start, thwarting investigations repeatedly that would have prevented it. Are we really prepared at all as a nation and a people to develop a peacetime economy? Bush wants to use all the public energy money for nuclear; we need to transition to wind/solar to start with. Are you ready for that? The largest terrorist threat to the US remains as always, the domestic and international rightwing terrorist Keyword search Steven Hatfill on the NYT's website; find covert action quarterly#43 on him and abramoff in southern africa. Cheney kept Mandela in jail an extra 7 years. That's wrong. I have struggled with how to exactly say this, so I just will.

Every alternative mission outside of full and rapid withdrawal of all troops, combat and otherwise, all "contractors" (aka mercenaries), all "embassy" personnel, all "advisors" - in short, all official U.S. presence and influence - abandonment of all military bases, plus the Regional Imperial Command and Control Center - aka "embassy" - is merely a way to accomplish the imperialist goal by other means. And that includes most especially the Baker Commission report, and Murtha's plan. “I’m sorry, but change the mission FROM what TO what?”

My question exactly.

This question has always been a big dark mystery because we can never talk about the real reason for the war (hint: it begins with "O", ends with "L", and has only three letters, one of which is "I"). This will always be the mission whether republicans or democrats are in control. The big fight is over how to accomplish this mission. Any plan by either party is going include plenty of bloodshed. It will never include bringing the troops home unless we force them to. I’m sorry, but change the mission FROM what TO what?

Bill of Rights, the Army and Navy persuaded them NOT to include the members of the Merchant Marine and the Flying Tigers (American Volunteer Group), because they were technically civilians. These omissions were by way of vendettas by the services. It wasn't until the Reagan Administration that they were given veterans benefits. The Army even put the fix in with the State Dept. to prevent any Tigers trying to return home, instead of joining the Army Air Corps. when told to, from getting help from U.S. Consulates. When a group found themselves at the end of their rope in Karachi, only to be stonewalled by the U.S. Consul, they got creative. The rented some camels and had the owners lead them in a circle in front of the Consulate, with the veterans riding them. They started screaming, "The American Consul is shit!" over and over again, until a large crowd of locals had gathered to watch the fun. Within an hour of this "street heat," someone came running out of the Consulate like a scalded cat. "STOP! Your ship leaves on Tuesday!" Hey, nothing but the best for our veterans. The reason the G.I. Bill was passed in the first place was because Congress was AFRAID of the veterans becoming Blackshirts or Brownshirts like they did in Europe after WWI.
