Once again, we have yet another teacher, this one from Loyola University in Chicago that are teaching our children that our soldiers are mercenaries and war criminals.
I knew in that moment that this was what the future of teaching about justice would include: teaching war criminals who sit glaring at me with hatred for daring to speak the truth of their atrocities and who, if paid to, would disappear, torture and kill me. I wondered that night how long I really have in this so called “free” country to teach my students and to be with my children and grandchildren.
The American military and mercenary soldiers who “sacrificed” their lives did not do so for the teacher’s freedom to teach the truth about the so-called war on terror, or any of US history for that matter. They sacrificed their lives, limbs and sanity for money, some education and the thrills of the violence for which they are socially bred. Sacrificing for the “bling and booty” in Iraq or Afghanistan, Philippines, Grenada, Central America, Mexico, Somalia, Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan, or any of the other numerous wars and invasions spanning US history as an entity and beginning with their foundational practice of killing the Indians and stealing their land.
Many of the classes that I teach now include students who “served” in the US military and security corporations. There are also many students who intend to join the US military upon completion of a degree because with the degree they get a bigger “sign on” bonus of ten to fifty thousand dollars. Their position is supported by many of the student body, who, vegetating according to the American Plan, believe they should “support their troops.”
The excuses that they give for joining or intending to join the US military terrorist training camps are first and foremost motivated by a desire for money.
Leave. Get the hell out of our country.
You are able to live in a free country, have a career, raise a family, have medical care, drive, vote as well as hundreds of other things that you cannot do freely in other countries and you have this because OUR MILITARY, past and present, fights for those rights.
You idiotic, sniveling weasel....LEAVE IF YOU DO NOT LIKE IT.
The other day I showed some quotes from one of our brave soldiers in an interview that can be found in full at Central Sanity.
He was in his mid-20’s, winging his way home from DC to Wichita via Chicago to see his parents. While he was in Iraq, a bomb had detonated, flipped over his Humvee, catching him underneath, cracking a rib and puncturing a lung. Later, as he was recovering in Germany, fluid built up in the injured lung and an infection set in, causing him to drop the weight on his six-foot-three frame from 175 to 125 pounds in a week’s time. He had added 30 of those pounds back, he said, by the time we sat next to each other in the airport restaurant – where I munched on fish and chips, worrying about the effect on my 42-year-old-heart, while the soldier scarfed down fried mozzarella sticks with blue cheese dressing, explaining that he was on a high-fat diet to replace the still-missing weight.
Despite his injury and ensuing struggle, he was convinced he and his fellow soldiers needed to be in Iraq, and he was intent on returning as soon as he was healed. He talked about the importance of breaking the pattern of the last several years, where they would secure one city only to see the sectarian terrorists move to the next city, in a never-ending circle of fight, secure, follow; fight, secure, follow – until they were back doing the same thing in the first city they had secured.
As with the other soldier, I told him my family, friends, and I appreciated everything they were doing for us, that I knew others felt the same way, and that despite the doubts and controversy surrounding the war, the general attitude toward soldiers returning from Iraq was much different, much kinder and gentler than the way in which many Vietnam vets were treated.
He said, “Yes, but it’s starting to change.”
He then recounted an experience on his last trip home between tours of duty, getting off a plane, walking through the airport and passing a stranger who leaned in and said, “Welcome home, baby killer.”
He is right, people like William Arkin, these teachers and our far left liberals ARE trying to make our fine military look like criminals when in actuality our military stands up and fights for OUR safety, even the likes of Arkin and Dr. June Scorza Terpstra (The teacher this post is about) and they want to dump on them???
I don't think so.
These people are not good enough to wipe our soldiers asses and free speech is one thing, but teaching this drivel to our children is another and there is a reason that hate speech is NOT protected under the free speech laws.
One of the comments from that piece of garbage that so-called teacher wrote, says it all:
Like being taught of the dangers of petting rattlesnakes or walking thru the African velt wearing a raw steak necklace, so too are the dangers of June Scorza Terpstra. No where do we here how she was conned into taking her salary, how she was forced, subjected to the inhumanities of living in a country run by the Halliburton's. And before Halliburton, it was Standard Oil. But let's listen to her cries for the murdered, the tortured, the raped - of course it's a lie. Vanity is June's sin, the spotlight needs a star, she could quit and save herself the indignity of having to teach those murdering soldiers, she could teach abroad in countries were flies rest of people's faces but let's be serious, she ain't going no where because companies like Halliburton make it possible for people like June to vomit their obscenities in comfort of centrally heated, well furnished, electrified universities. People like June are the price the REST of pay for our liberties. Let's just hope she's greeted in hell by those she says deserve to be there. I am murdering vet, so I guess I'll see her there.
His name was Armand and good for you Armand!!!!!!
When political correctness goes so far that we are endangering our children and our way of life, in order that we do not "offend" somebody, then political correctness be DAMNED.
Leave our country you traiterous worm and find another that will offer you the opportunities that our past military men fought to give us....you don't deserve them.

This and other sniveling worms should not be allowed to teach in our schools....schools are meant to teach our children facts, not drivel such as this.
