US soldiers sent by the Pentagon to carry out the moral duty and war on terrorism surprisingly lacked the moral sanctity and awareness in local cultural sensitivity.

Unacceptable acts committed by US combat troops in remote parts of the world is becoming something 'normal' for the US force but a nightmare for the US Foreign Department in rapid damage-control media reactions.

The recent case of a US military contractor in the Pakistani case is just another apt example of US utter disregard for local customs and respects.

It is no wonder, the people in South Korea, Japan etc do not want to see the continuance of US permanent de facto 'occupation’ in South Korea, Japan, Afghanistan, Iraq,etc where the 'war on terrorism' is in fact “US creeping Occupation” of free and democratic nations-never mind the 4th Amendment under the US Constitution.

The executive summary must be made clear under international transparency rules : US occupation of the Arab world will soon be complete. Libya is just another chest game for the US War Economy chest.

Barrack Obama’s New World Order will see to it that the ‘Change’ the people want is the complete control and permanent occupation-in infinitive form and degree-of all US interest in strategic assets and environmental territories around the world.

Russia knows it since the fall of the Tzar. China is fully aware of it after the Cultural Revolution and the aftermath of Mao Zedong’s Red Book. India understands this agenda only after the death of Mahatma Gandhi. The British still cherish the desire of an invisible ‘British Empire’ for ‘Queen and Country’; and Israel will emerge as the benefactor in a world of turmoil after their journey in the wilderness since the biblical exodus. Unfortunately Israel have not learn anything significant though :

The Wilderness Way

Then it came to pass, when Pharaoh had let the people go, that God did not lead them by way of the land of the Philistines, although that was nearer; for God said, “Lest perhaps the people change their minds when they see war, and return to Egypt.”

[Exodus 13:17]

People who join are 'double filtered'.

Background checks to weed out habitual criminality, and the general mind-set of those inclined to volunteer for military service [selflessness vs selfishness].

Does this mean the services are free of dirtbags and slackers? Hardly.

But their representation [percentage-wise] is inherently smaller than the general population. And the system is geared towards more 'aggressive' corrective action, either by peers or leadership; 'general society', not so much.

Sometimes 'discrimination' is a good thing.

THE TIMES IS 'MURDER' ON OUR GIS

Conservative columnists and bloggers are blasting The New York Times for what they call fuzzy math and shoddy research designation to trash the reputation of GIs by saying Iraq and Afghanistan war veterans are returning home as murderers.

The Times said in a front-page story on Sunday that it had found 121 cases of Iraq and Afghan war vets committing a homicide in the United States.

But veterans and right-wing critics crunched the numbers and discovered that the murder rate for returning vets is only one-fifth of that of young Americans who did not serve in the war zones.

Post columnist Ralph Peters called the lengthy Times article "part of the disgraceful left-wing campaign" to portray "our troops as clichéd maniacs."

Several hundred blogs have appeared since Sunday that are critical of the article. "I'm a veteran and I haven't killed anybody in years," wrote William Briggs. "But if you read The New York Times, you'd be right to worry that I might."

Efforts to obtain a response from the Times yesterday were unsuccessful.

The pro-troop group Move America Forward called the article "slander."

"It's obvious that The New York Times has an agenda of undermining the missions of our troops in the war on terror, so much so that they are willing to resort to demonstrably false statistics to support their anti-troop bias," said the group's chairman, Melanie Morgan.

The critics said the 121 killings have to be judged in context, by comparing the vets with those Americans who didn't serve in the war zones.

Justice Department statistics show that Americans in the veterans' age group, 18 to 34 years old, commit about 150 murders a year – or 700 to 750 over the period studied by the Times. That's more than five times the number of murders committed by veterans.

"In other words, the Times unwittingly makes the case that military service reduces the likelihood of a young man or woman committing a murder by 80 percent," Peters wrote.

I'm sure it is the kind of thing that makes liberal elitists feel superior while at Manhattan cocktail parties…

The NY Post did a follow up 'to the NY Times article' and found many of the murders unrelated to Iraq (Many, had never even been to Iraq) and that the total was "80%" less than that of the same age group and numbers of peers in the US.

In other words, young trained military people were significantly less likely to kill others than their peers.
