The Worst Wounded Soldier I Ever Met

I have mentioned I went to high school with a kid, the year before me, who was killed in the invasion of Grenada when a hailstorm of Cuban bullets went through the window of the helicopter he was piloting and landed in his face. But at least he died on the spot. He left a wife and two daughters – now adults – who of course never met him.

The worst wounded soldier that I ever met had been walking across a rice paddy in Vietnam when a bullet severed his spine. Right across the back of his neck. Had it missed him by an inch he would have been just fine. Maybe even less than an inch.

Had he fallen forward he would have drowned. Instead he fell backwards and survived. He was 19 years old. I remember thinking if he wondered, “Just what the hell happened to me?”

This talking head spent the next 30 years lying on back in his parent’s home, being turned like a hamburger patty to prevent bedsores, before he died of pneumonia in a VA hospital at age 49.

Speaking of VA hospitals, I have been to them several times. I saw several guys there paralyzed from the waist down in Vietnam, out in the sunshine in their wheelchairs and on stretchers – and younger ones from Iraq and Afghanistan. I never saw the men hidden in the back wards (one of my friend’s mother used to visit them and he told me what she told him) – some of them didn’t have faces and some no arms and legs (these used to be called “basket cases”). I can’t imagine being a nurse in a place like that. How can anyone get used to something like that?

Amazing – sort of – what advanced combat medicine can do these days. Used to be, other soldiers would shoot other horribly wounded soldiers and put them out of their misery. How’s that for a permanent memory? – shooting another soldier because you can’t get any treatment for him. Not that in many cases treatment would have done any good.

The worst wounded soldier I read about from Iraq was a 19-year-old who was shot point-blank head in the back of the head by an Iraqi soldier – one of those “allies” that the stupid are protesting should be let into the country. He ended up paralyzed from the neck down, blind, and unable to talk. He can hear just fine, though. If he still alive he’s spending his “life” in his bedroom in his parents’ home.

It was about 10 years ago I read about him.

I once saw of picture of Denzel Washington, with a look of great compassion on his face, talking to a woman (I could tell it was a woman because of her long blonde wig) whose face was a mass of burned tissue – from her service in either Afghanistan or Iraq. I remember thinking, “There goes marriage, husband, children, family, happiness.”

Chickenhawk cowards say these guys “made the ultimate sacrifice.” But it apparently doesn’t occur to them these guys have parents and wives and friends and children that have to spend the rest of their lives with these tragedies.

Such tragedies aren’t linear. They spread out like a concrete block thrown in a pond. That’s why they affect so many people.

If I had the ability I’d have all the Chickenhawks switch places with these wounded soldiers so they would be whole again (too bad it can’t be 100,000 made whole for one coward). Then the Chickenhawks can make “the ultimate sacrifice.” I’d have them switch places with Dubya Shrub, Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, Douglas Feith, Paul Wolfowitz and Richard Perle – none of whom volunteered for Vietnam even though they were the perfect ages to serve. They were plenty good at starting unnecessary wars, though.

Of course none of them would agree to this switch. Others are supposed to be horribly wounded and have no life to speak of – not these arrogant cowards.

There are a lot worse things than merely dying.

Fixing the Problem Isn't All That Hard

”One man’s terrorist is another man’s freedom fighter.” - Old saying

”Political power is the game of playing God.” The Thousand Year War, Richard Maybury

”The great rule of conduct for us, in regard to foreign nations is, in extending our commercial relations, to have as little political connection as possible.” - George Washington, 1776

The United States was founded on political and military non-intervention in any other county's affairs (before the U.S. got involved in WWII there was a famous organization called “America First” - sound familiar these days?). All the Founding Fathers had wisely advised this. They knew history in great detail. Engage in trade with other countries but nothing else. It worked just fine for about 150 years – until the U.S. got involved in 1898 in the “Spanish-American” war (which came about because the U.S. had a warship in a harbor in Cuba.). That’s when the American empire started – the one scheduled to collapse someday, as all empires have collapsed, almost always in massive death and destruction and societal and governmental collapse).

Want to fix our problems in the Middle East? The answer is simple. Withdraw our troops from over there completely (Chickenhawks who delude themselves we should stay there and murder/get murdered are invited to get their fat, lazy, cowardly asses over there and put their money where their mouth is).

The Muslim world used to consider the United States its friend/ally until we started supporting the blasphemous, anti-Christian, anti-American state of Israel (which is a temporary country created in 1948) - which has the most spies of any country in the United States, some of which have been executed for treason and others imprisoned for decades for spying/stealing secrets (and almost all of Israel’s land was stolen from Arabs – imagine that! Jews stealing.).

Trump has not only cut off immigration from Muslim countries (he should include Saudi Arabia, which attacked us on 9-11) but is instead letting in persecuted Christians (this is a Christian country, no matter what lies Muslims and Jews and others tell - and there are very good reasons Jews have been expelled over 100 times from the countries that were stupid enough to let them in – and always for the same reasons: stealing, lying, spying, treason. Even U.S. Grant tried to expel them from his jurisdiction during the War between the States – for attempting to make shekels from treason.).

World War I was just another European war in a very long line of them and none of the U.S.'s business (Thomas Jefferson correctly called Europe “nations of eternal war”). The fact we got involved and screwed it up horribly led to the rise of Hitler (who originally was praised by Churchill and FDR) and the Nazis and the genocidal atheist Jewish Bolshevists in Russia. And we know to where that led – which we are still paying for today).

We aren't going to change the Muslim world and impose the Leftist delusion of democracy on it (or anything else) - which was something the Jew spies and traitors in Shub's administration confidently claimed (one said they would be “singing songs” about us instead of killing and maiming us as they are now doing).

The solution is simple: withdraw from the Muslim world and stop supporting Israel. Let no more Muslims come to the U.S. and deport the trouble-makers. And let no more Jews in the U.S. either (Jews have supplied more spies and traitors to the U.S. than all other ethnic groups combined).

There has been religious wars in the Middle East for 4000 years – and that’s not a war the U.S. can win unless it kills everyone, which we are not going to do. Can’t do. As far as I'm concerned Jews and Muslims can kill each other to their heart's content - over there. Remember - Satan is "walking to and fro and up and down" this earth. And supporting one Satanic religion against another Satanic religion isn't going to work at all. Can Satan throw out Satan?

Problem solved! But that was too easy for an incompetent, cowardly, bullying self-deluded, left-wing messianic nutcase like Shrub (who has been the only dynamic grave digger of the United States in the 21st Century) and his equally cowardly, incompetent and moronic "advisors." All were in thrall to their Monstrous Selves – which meant none of them in their arrogance and self-delusion knew their limitations and lacked wisdom and common sense.

I hope to God Trump has more sense than the moronic Shrub – and thank God the Bush Crime Family has been utterly repudiated by the American people. Fortunately, Trump has been putting America first - so far (which is something the never-worked-a-day-in–his-life, born rich dim-bulb globalist Shrub never did). Like all people intoxicated by political power (which is the power to turn people into corpses) the coward and weakling Dubya couldn’t handle the responsibility (which he said God handed to him). It’s why he’s already gone down in history as a catastrophic President – and has already been forgotten by the American people.

Trump should start closing down the American empire (he correctly called NATO “obsolete”) – and let the nations of “eternal war” support themselves militarily). All empires collapse anyway – which is something the Founding Fathers were well aware of. We can either withdraw or in the long-run collapse. That’s the history of the world, without exception.

No Muslims in the U.S. - no terrorism. No American troops over there - no terrorism. And with no more murdering and otherwise humiliating the Muslim world – no more revenge from them. Anyone who doesn’t recognize this simple truth isn’t just a historical ignoramus – they’re stupid.

”Not a place on earth might be so happy as America. Her situation is remote from all the wrangling world, and she has nothing to do but trade with them.” - Thomas Paine, 1776

”Political power corrupts both the morals and judgment.” - Richard Maybury

Call Him Lord Coward

I used to read a lot of science fiction between the ages of 12 and 14. One very famous story I read at the age of 12 was "Call Him Lord" by the now-late Gordon R. Dickson.

Before I go any further I will also point out I was raised on the wrong side of the tracks and saw quite a few bad things.

Dickson's story was about a young man who was destined to be Emperor of the Galaxy but had to undergo a test to determine his suitability. He had to go on a trip on horseback with a man whose family had always administered these tests - which were about the tester just observing the boy's behavior in whatever situations he happened to encounter.

The boy in question, who might have been maybe 20, fails these tests. He starts a fight then runs. But that wasn't the problem, not really. There were other things he did. It turns out he was a bully. At the end he tries, while drunk, to pull a pistol on the man testing him and the man sticks a knife in his heart. He tells the boy's instructor what the boy's failing was: "Lord, he was a coward."

It wasn't so much his cowardly behavior but the fact he was a bully. And all bullies are cowards. And in the mind of a bully and a coward it’s always someone else’s fault – never theirs.

Probably not two weeks after I read this story I was at school in the gym locker room. There was a bully in there named Don. Don had no sense at all. He had been picking on a wrester named Phil, who at the age of 12 was about 5'4". But being a wrester he was fit and in shape.

Phil finally got tired of this idiot Don giving him a hard time - so he beat him up in the locker room. I saw it. Wham, wham, wham, wham with his fists - and Don collapsed completely in about five seconds. "Stop hitting me! You kicked my ass!" His voice was trembling in terror.

Don was a bully and a coward.

Not more than another two weeks after that I was in the boy's restroom was when about four boys came in. One of them was a boy named Greg, and he was a catastrophe. Very thick glasses that made his eyes fuzzy, mousy hair, walked with his mouth open, scrawny, bad posture.

Another kid followed him in there with a big cocky grin on his face. Apparently he had been picking on this genetic catastrophe Greg and thought he was going to easily beat him up. Hence the big cocky grin.

The fight didn't even last ten seconds. Greg got this clown in a headlock and tried to pull his face over the top of his head with one hand made into a claw. The bully collapsed completely. "You kicked my ass! I give up! Stop hitting me!"

He was a bully and a coward.

I've seen a lot of fights since then and have never seen an exception to the observation that bullies are cowards. As Sam Spade (Humphrey Bogart) told Wilmer the Gunsel (a tiny man who carried two huge .45s to make up for his tininess) in The Maltese Falcon: "the cheaper the punk the gaudier the patter."

So when I saw Shrub howling on TV, "Bring it on!" and collapsing in insecurity when a reporter spoke French in front of him I knew about all doubt he was a bully and a coward. Especially since he avoided volunteering for Vietnam, as did another coward, Donald Rumsfeld, who told the troops (who were complaining about their poor armor), "You go to war not with the army you want but the army you have." (So much for the Chickenhawks who used to tell me we had the "best-equipped, best-trained military").

Shub's entire administration was full of cowards - Cheney, Rumsfeld, him, Paul Wolfowitz, Richard Perle, Douglas Feith. I thought, "My God, an administration full of bullies and cowards! They have no sense at all! These wars are going to be complete catastrophes!" (For example, the Wahabis who flew the planes on 9-11 were almost all Saudi Arabians – and Wahabism is from Saudi Arabia and funded by the government. So Shrub and his administrations attack Iraq instead of Saudi Arabia?)

Guess what - I was right. Because I'm an expert on bullies and cowards and can identify them pretty damn fast.

Amazing what you can learn from someone else’s experience, isn't that? Thank you, Gordon R. Dickson. After all, art imitates life!

Not Only Was Obama Utterly Repudiated But the Entire Bush Crime Family

It's obvious that not only was Obama and his destructive policies completely repudiated, but also the massively destructive policies of the anti-American, globalist, leftist RINO Bush Crime Family. That’s why Jeb!’s candidacy was utterly destroyed by the people who rejected him – and no Bush will ever hold political office again. And thank God for that. The American people are tired of them and the death and destruction they have wrought on this country – although it has greatly benefited them financially (they have been involved in business for decades with the bin Ladin family, which is why Shrub flew them out of the U.S. back to Saudi Arabia the after day after 9-11…when all other planes were grounded. Even though the FBI protested since they knew we were attacked on 9-11 by Saudi Arabia, not Afghanistan, not Iraq, and wanted to interrogate the bin Ladin family).

Obama didn't do anything but go on vacation and improve his golf game. But at least he was not a messianic nutcase like the incompetent, brain-damaged (from his 20 years of alcoholism) Dubya Shrub. Who I'm sure still thinks God chose this blasphemer to be President. Did he think he was/is the equal of Jesus, who this loon said was his “favorite philosopher”?

Trump isn’t an enigma to me. He’s a patriot and puts America first, which neither Obama or Shrub ever was or ever did. His talking about “grabbing them by the pussy” is irrelevant except to obese, unattractive leftist “feminists”…the ones who supported rapist Bill Clinton no matter what he did.

Trump at least changes his mind when he’s wrong. I wonder what’s he going to do when he realizes he’s not going to be able to rid the world of Islamic terrorism? Perhaps it might happen when we stop supporting the blasphemous anti-Christian, anti-American state of Israel (which has spies all over the U.S.) – which was when our problems with the Muslim world started.

What happens in the Middle East – where there has been war for the last 4000 years – is none of the U.S. government’s business. I don’t give a goddamn what sand kaffirs do to each other – or the sheep they take turns fucking (which I saw on an attack helicopter’s video) or the young boys they love to sodomize so much. As long as they do it over there.

Whatever we do over there will fail – the way it has without exception for the last 15 years…and long before that.

As I’ve said before, Satan is walking to and fro up and down the earth – and only the completely self¬-deluded think we can stop it.

You can’t change someone’s culture and religion. Many people would rather die and they will kill anyone who humiliates them by trying to destroy their way of life. Turnabout’s fair play, right? That’s a law of life.

What we need, more than anything else, is to have no Muslims in the United States. Europe is learning the hard way when they let these rapists and murderers in.

Anyone who thinks we can rid the world of Islamic terrorism is invited to get their cowardly chickenhawk asses over there and fight. But they never will. Chickenhawks can only run their mouths and have nothing to back it up. Like all cowards, they have no honor or bravery, just cowardice and self-deception.

No Muslims in the U.S. – no terrorism here. It’s as simple as that. And when Islamic immigration to the U.S. is cut off it won’t be temporarily. It will be permanent.

The U.S. is an empire of military bases. And all empires have fallen, without any exceptions. The same thing is going to happen to us. Anyone who thinks it won’t happen is an utter historical ignoramus. We can either withdraw voluntarily or be forced out.

I expect Trump to start withdrawing militarily from the world. That’s why he said NATO was “obsolete.” It is – and let Europe defend itself and stop sucking on our tit. He’s putting America first, the way he’s starting to do economically.

Trump has done more good in a week than Obama or Shrub did in eight years each.

Sixteen years of clusterfucks! We've been involved in the Middle East longer than we were involved in WWI, WII and Korea combined! My God, enough is enough!

Fat Ugly Feminists Finally Getting Some Exercise

One good thing about all those fat ugly leftist/feminist women protesting against Trump is that they are finally getting some exercise. If they keep it up for the next eight years they should finally lose a lot of weight, which should make them happier. At least I hope so.

Women are much unhappier now than in the past. You can blame a lot of that on them being infected by feminist ideology, even if they don’t know they are infected.

I saw some of the protesting women interviewed on TV. Too bad it’s impossible to delete some images from your brains. Fat (or scrawny, sometimes) and unattractive is not a good memory. And such memories are for life.

The first feminist I ever met was in my first semester in college, when I was barely 18 years old. She was overweight, unattractive and loud in class (I remember the instructor told her she was going to “die horny”). As the years went by I realized almost all of them were like her.

The only attractive feminist I know about is Gloria Steinem - and she's nuts. She always has been. Most of them instead looked like the late, monstrous Betty Friedan (who somehow managed to marry a wealthy man and have children, which made her a gigantic hypocrite, as all leftists – in her case, a Stalinist – are. She also wrote The Feminine Mystique while living in a mansion on the Hudson River, attended by housemaids.).

I get the impression - in fact I know - that these women lack love and sex and family and happiness – which they can only get from a man. That's the problem. Some of them have probably never been laid in their lives. A vibrator doesn’t count.

I've said before everyone seeks meaning, importance and community. If a woman is denied love, husband, family and children because she is hostile/overweight/unattractive then she has to find those qualities somewhere else. Like protesting with a group of like-minded women – her “family” - against the “racist, sexist” Trump (Erik von Kuehnelt-Leddihn correctly defined Leftism as based on “the murder of the Father”).

Spinsters cause a lot of problems. In fact it was spinsters who put Hitler in office (almost all the men voted against him). Hitler purposely targeted such women for propaganda – and it worked! That’s because most women are ruled by their feels, not their reason.

I've said before women shouldn't be allowed to vote unless they are married and have children.

I once wrote an article about how such women should get free plastic surgery, which drew a lot of comments. If this surgery was successful it would save us a hell of a lot of problems. In fact, every woman who has ever verbally attacked me has been unattractive – mostly overweight with thick, unattractive features. The attractive ones I’ve never had a problem with.

Leftism is based on envy and hate. So, if there were no ugly, fat (or scrawny) women, envious and hateful of better-looking women, then there might not be much feminism.

L.P. Hartley once wrote a novel titled Facial Justice, in which all women were required by law to get plastic surgery so they all looked alike. Envious, hate-filled, unattractive feminists would settle for that – if all women were brought down to look like them.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: there is a good reason the “serpent,” (actually nachash), which is a symbol of envy, in the story of the Garden targeted a woman.

Using God's Name For Vain Causes

When I was a kid all of us ended up believing to use God's name in vain was to say "Goddamn." Even then it didn't make any sense to me. How we were taught that I don’t remember.

Years later I encountered the correct translation: to use God's name in vain causes. Example: in WWII Germans went to battle wearing belt buckles with "Gott mit uns" on them. That magic talisman didn’t work. It never does and never will.

There are several lessons to the story of the Garden of Eden. One of them is going from unconsciousness to consciousness of good and evil. And from innocence to experience of good and evil. That particular problem obviously runs back thousands of years.

In the last "Starship Troopers" movie it ends with the comment, "God exists. He's on our side. He wants us to win!" Lots of people in many countries believe that. It has never worked and, again, never will.

Almost all tribes have named themselves “the People” or “All Humans.” The ancient Greeks called the Mediterranean “the Middle Sea” - the middle of the world - and the Chinese called China “the Middle Kingdom.” They believed the gods were on their side and in fact founded their countries and cultures.

The last time the American government used God's name for vain causes was when the primitive mind of the coward and mass murderer/serial killer/war criminal Dubya Shrub (he said he “didn’t do nuance”, which means he saw things as a narcissistic either all-good or all-bad, which is a very bad thing) started two completely unnecessary wars, both of which as still going on after 15 years. And there’s no end to them in sight.

The self-deluded Shrub was convinced God chose this born-rich loser (who failed at every one of his business adventures) to be President. As I've mentioned before, this is blasphemy. And of course it's using God's name for vain causes!

Innocence to experience? Shrub, Dickless Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld were, and are, as innocent as apples of real good and real evil. None of them even knows that the source of evil is Biblical Pride (the Greek Hubris) or my favorite definition - "the Monstrous Self."

The Monstrous Self has no conscience. It’s interested only in power, domination and control. It’s only loyalty is to itself. Other people are just things to be sacrificed to feed the Monstrous Self (human sacrifice, especially war, is always a fertility rite).

Unconsciousness to consciousness? Even now, all are innocent and unconscious of real good and real evil.

I actually know more about good and evil than anything else, which is why I write about it a lot. I have mentioned that decades ago I briefly met a young woman, about 23, who perhaps two days later was strangled by a serial killer, who not only graduated from the same university I did, but lived not too far from where I lived. Altogether he might have strangled seven women, perhaps more. He won't come clean about it even though serving life in prison. He enjoys the power he has to jerk around the authorities, the way this conscienceless sadistic psychopath enjoyed the power of murdering those teenage women.

I also met and talked to a mother whose two daughters were raped and thrown off a bridge over the Mississippi River (the story is far too long to tell here). Only one body was found (we used to party on that deserted bridge in high school – several hundred of us).

I also was raised with a family down the street (their two sons were my friends, both of them now dead, one from alcoholism and one from AIDS), whose younger, insane daughter stuck a knife in her baby's head and killed it (she's now in a locked mental institution for life).

These things are why I talk about Satan "walking to and fro and up and down the earth" and having a damned good time doing it. And the only Satan I’ve ever encountered is in the hearts of people.

These things have been going on for me my entire life. I have no idea why (what I’ve written about is but a fraction of what I’ve seen).

You think I'd be cynical, but I'm not.

There is such a thing as being conscious of what good and evil are and going beyond it to what you might call an "experienced innocence." To regain your innocence in the midst of this valley of woe – “to be wise as serpents and innocent as doves.”

I think perhaps someone like J.R.R. Tolkien had done it. After all, everything he wrote was about the conflict between good and evil (think The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings trilogy), yet he was a happy man. He had regained his innocence. (By the way, C.S. Lewis, one of Tolkien’s friends, suggested evil was just “bent” good. Tolkien’s Gollum, for example, started life as the hobbit Smeagol but was seduced by the power of his “precious” ring. And as I’ve said before, power intoxicates and immunity corrupts.)

Some people never lose their innocence. That's not a good thing. These people, when they gain political power, are the ones who wreck the world with wars and chaos – and think they are doing good things (hence the saying, “The road to Hell is paved with good intentions”).

In reality they've never gone beyond their childish Monstrous Self – they’ve never grown up. In fact, they revel in their Monstrous Selves and its effects on the world. And they never give a thought to what they've done. More accurately, they rationalize it as a good thing! (This is why I say lying to your self is one of the easiest things in the world.)

I’ve thought for a long time the best way to understand Adam and Eve is to think of them as being four years old – pointing to other people and yelling, “You made me do it!”

That’s the problem with humanity. Lots of people are about four years old – pointing to other people and yelling, “It’s your fault!” Innocent but self-deluded and don’t even know it.

As Thomas Hobbes wrote, “The evil man is the child grown strong.” And it’s true.

The Murder of the Father

"Warriors, mythologically, lift their swords to defend the king." - Iron John, Robert Bly

It didn't surprise me at all that the overwhelmingly majority of those protesting at the Trump inauguration were women (women should not be allowed to vote unless they are married and have children – which is ironical when you realize how many of these unattractive childless women are obsessed with Trump and other Presidents “keeping his hands off my ovaries.” which is a cliche with these women). The few men protesting, well, they’re just manginas.

These women of course are Leftists, and Leftism is feminine. The bad feminine, actually. And Leftists always want to destroy just about everything – and the worst of them believe in Chaos, which is a Hell on earth. The late Eric von Kuehnelt-Leddihn understood what Leftism is based on: he said it is about "the murder of the Father." The archetypal Father, meaning patriarchy in whatever form (there have never been any matriarchies, contrary to the hallucinations of the invincibly ignorant).

The humorist P.J. made the comment (and it's a true one): "Without men civilization would last until the next oil change" (I have never seen a woman who is even capable of changing a tire). Leftist women think they can maintain civilization, which is amusing because they can’t.

Carl Jung, whom I have quoted before, said women are biologically indispensable because they have the babies and men are culturally indispensable because they created/discovered/invented/maintain everything.

I know some women who attended Trump's inauguration. They said they were "feminists," although none of them have a clue as to what it really means. Not at all surprisingly they weren't very attractive (imagine that!) and of course weren't married and didn’t have children.

Protesting with others is how they get their meaning and importance and community in life. That fact their protesting does no good whatsoever is not the point, although somehow, they seem to think they can effect some change, somehow.

Mythologically speaking, Trump is a king (some have referred to him as "an emperor"). And if those who believe he is somewhat of a mythological king then they also believe he is trying to do a sacred thing in trying to make this country a better place. That’s the power of mythology.

By the way, von Kuehnelt-Leddihn also said a monarchy was more “erotic” in the ancient Greek sense, which meant love, why why I think Trump is really is a patriot. And he’s not going to quit, which is something Leftists desperately hope.

The Mainstream Media, which is Leftist, is never going leave him alone for the next eight years. And to quote Kuehnelt-Leddihn again, Leftists have no honor and lie all the time, which is true of the media. And of course, one of the easiest things in the world is to lie to your self – and people who do it don’t even know they are doing it. They think they are defending the truth instead of lies (Satan is referred to as “the father of lies”).

The Mainstream Media will tell every lie they can get away with for the next eight years. They want to destroy Trump because is acts like the Father and, again, Leftists want to murder the Father. (I’ve also mentioned that Hillary Clinton is an Evil Queen wannabe – and thank God her political career is over. Mythologically she’s the Bad Mother, who wants to oppress and destroy men, as all Leftists want to do).

All this means Trump’s supporters are going to have to support him unceasingly. To the hilt, you could say.

Amazing what you can learn from the study of mythology, isn’t it? After all, the stories are the distilled wisdom of the human race.
