Worshipping the State: Why They Die This just can’t be said often enough: Simple facts most soldiers do not understand: The government (state) is not our country; when you fight and die in undeclared wars, you do so for the State and not for our country or our freedoms; when you forsake the Constitution you swore to uphold and defend to follow unconstitutional orders, even from your commander-in-chief, you cross the line from defender of your country to the very real possibility of becoming a war criminal.
For those who support whatever Goebbels wannabe who emails the most Norman Rockwell images to you, consider this:
Does the insurgent in Iraq present a greater danger to freedom than the politicians who signed the Patriot Act without reading it? Is al Qaeda to be feared more than the suspension of the Writ of Habeas Corpus?
“A patriot must always be ready to defend his country against his government.” Edward Abbey
