From the page: In recent days we have all witnessed two vomitous eruptions of moral nullity that would tax the powers of a Voltaire or a Vidal to do them proper justice; they quite o'er-crow the meager gifts of a hack like me. But I will sketch a few observations here nonetheless, if only to add one more small voice to those few who bear witness to the evils perpetrated by our unaccountable leaders.

We speak of course of Barack Obama's Nobel speech and Tony Blair's recent comments on the Iraq War.  Let's take the lesser figure first......"

From the page: "President Obama's Nobel Prize acceptance lecture in Oslo 10 December 2009--the Human Rights Day!--added tragedy to the comedy. It was vintage Orwell, war is peace, serving outdated thoughts by nations trying to legitimize their warfare, with the eloquence and charm that came through to many of that persuasion. A reactionary speech, more becoming to war college graduation in a militaristic country like the USA; and a total travesty of the purpose of the Nobel Peace Prize, intended to go beyond that kind of mentality.

But the Norwegian party to this pre-arranged plot to abuse the Nobel prize to justify the three wars in which the USA, and the West generally, have gotten embroiled, carries most of the shame, particularly the two NATO prime ministers, one president of the Nobel committee. That they were out to save themselves, as did you, Obama; and harvested applause from the usual suspects, was obvious. Mutual self-praise, totally genuine. And therapeutic."

From their About Page: "On most of the FOBs and COBs (Forward Operating Bases and Contingency Operations Bases) spread across far flung areas of Iraq and Afghanistan, sanitation is a paramount concern often worsened by hazardous waste disposal methods. The trash that units accumulate each day is put into a burn pit, most often a 50-gallon drum, liberally sprinkled with gasoline, and incinerated. On cold mornings, groups of soldiers, marines, other service-members and local allies can be found huddled around the burn pit seeking warmth and camaraderie. Although the health risks associated with such behavior are only now fully being recognized, troops have long suspected this was not an entirely healthy endeavor.

But, most were willing to join their brethren for the heat, the conversation and the feeling of belonging to something bigger than themselves. For the brave men and women who face death each day against extremists at the sharp end of our war, potential long-term hazards take a back seat to enjoying each day.

The American Legion Burn Pit is no different: slightly irreverent, fluid, fast moving, and meant to inspire the sort of "water cooler discussions" which the burn pits on COBs and FOBs foster. Here, we will discuss issues of importance to veterans, service-members, military family members, and those of the general populace who wish to learn about these issues and discuss them with others.

lthough maintained by Legionnaires, the Burn Pit does not officially represent the views of the Legion. The opinions contained herein are those of the authors, many of them long-standing Legion members who have served in official capacities."

I can hardly believe it, but I must thumb down an article by Chuck Baldwin. Why he does not track down the original source is beyond me.

As already pointed out by some StumbleUpon users, the original source of this "report" seems to be whatdoesitmean.com/index1302.htm [whatdoesitmean.com/index1302.htm] which is run by "Sorcha Faal" aka David Booth.

He/She is a known plagarist and a dis-info agent, whether for the CIA or simply for profit, who knows.

From the page: "The previously unreported program, the military intelligence source said, is distinct from the CIA assassination program that the agency's director, Leon Panetta, announced he had canceled in June 2009. "This is a parallel operation to the CIA," said the source. "They are two separate beasts." The program puts Blackwater at the epicenter of a US military operation within the borders of a nation against which the United States has not declared war--knowledge that could further strain the already tense relations between the United States and Pakistan. In 2006, the United States and Pakistan struck a deal that authorized JSOC to enter Pakistan to hunt Osama bin Laden with the understanding that Pakistan would deny it had given permission. Officially, the United States is not supposed to have any active military operations in the country."
