A Marine colonel, speaking at a Corps ceremony, could not explain why soldiers are being sent to Afghanistan, when asked by a Viet Nam vet whose son is being deployed next year. Former captain Curtis Bennett asked Lt. Col. Glasco at a Lawrence, Kansas base ceremony: "Can you tell me one good reason why he (son) is going over there and should he be killed, what exactly would he be dying for? He (Glasco) responded to me, but didn't really answer my questions." Tatarewicz: What a joke! But even more ridiculous is that of the 58 comments posted following the article none pointed out that the Afghan invasion was launched solely to enhance Israel's security at the direction of the Israeli lobby which controls the US Congress as a result of its selection of pro-Israel candidates and its funding of their campaigns sufficiently to assure election. The promptness of the comments also illustrates how pro-Israel trolls saturate a site with non sequiturs to "drown" out posters who might expose the real reason for the Iraq and Afghan missions.

Same reason we were in Vietnam I guess.
"Satan / Cheney in "08" noted..that's the one area in which the american people will be slowest to wake up to.
I hope that folks have gone to the "full text" link to see the rather clever way the captain got the colonel's attention. BTW, has anyone who has been "accurately" exposing Organized Jewry's skulduggery on the world stage try to post on LJ's and other MSM sites? I get a run around when I try to post and am wondering if the ADL has supplied a list of names to MSM (computers) to preclude us from exposing to a wider audience the details of the Israeli lobby's devious MO.
What is LJ's site? With a working link. Thanks.
For Lawrence Journal World: http://www2.ljworld.com/news/200...nation-has-right-ask-why/ Same as URL source link above. Don't know if the article was published in the Kansas paper's print edition or just on the web site.
