  • Matthis wants to slap you for saying you’re non-violent

    Matthis is such a giant pussy he won’t even threaten you to your face;

    Somehow, Matthis thinks that all Americans are violent because we pay our taxes, yet he remains morally above the rest of us while he uses tax-payer-funded VA benefits.

    I wonder how he explains this picture of him pretending to be a real GI Joe firing blanks through a machine gun;

    I got that picture from his Facebook profile. I think the next time I hear Matthis call himself an Afghanistan veteran, I’m going to slap the shit out of him.

  • The tortuous debate about torture

    The CIA Director has admitted that, to a point, “harsh interrogayion methods” were used with some success in the bin :aden operation. According to the Washington Times, Panetta said;

    CIA Director Leon E. Panetta said some threads of intelligence among the multiple origins came through the use of harsh interrogation.

    “Clearly, some of it came from detainees and the interrogation of detainees, but we also had information from other sources as well,” Mr. Panetta said on NBC News.

    Asked to deny that waterboarding was among the tactics used to extract the intelligence that led to the successful mission, Mr. Panetta said: “No. I think some of the detainees clearly were, you know, they used these enhanced interrogation techniques against some of these detainees.”

    The CIA director also said that “the debate about whether we would have gotten the same information through other approaches I think is always going to be an open question.”

    That must drive the Anthony Camerino crowd crazy since Camerino has spent thousands of George Soros dollars to preach to us about how useless “torture” and being generally mean to Islamists doesn’t work as an interrogation technique. Not to mention the President.

    How tough can waterboarding be if a giant pussy like Matthis can voluntarily tolerate it?

    Added: “Torture lover” Uncle Jimbo on the subject at Blackfive and on Russia TV. Somehow Jim thinks that yellow suit he wore last week looks good on TV, too.

  • Matthis the “Deather”

    One of my ninjas sent us these screen shots of Matthis calling BS on the death of bin Laden – probably using his skills as a CSI – something else he’s never done.

    Why would they need to do an autopsy, Matthis? They know how he died – there’s video of him getting a pair of lead injections. I guess all of that VA money for your education went to waste. Notice that Ethan McCord of “Collateral Murder” fame and IVAW’s Seth Manzel both “liked” his post.

    Now, he’s traveled the world and you Americans are the worst people in it;

    The great thing about America is that you’re free to leave anytime you want, boy-o. Don’t let the door hit you on the way out.

  • Army gives tour of Manning’s new digs

    In an attempt to preclude criticism of Bradley Manning’s new accommodations at Fort Leavenworth, the Army conducted a tour for the press (USA Today link);

    The Fort Leavenworth prison, which opened late last year, was built near the U.S. Disciplinary Barracks, the military’s maximum-security prison for inmates sentenced to at least five years confinement, including those sentenced to death.

    About 150 inmates are at the medium-security prison, Collins said, including others awaiting military trial. The prison is the northern edge of the fort, which is also home to the Army’s Command and General Staff College.

    Manning was transferred to Fort Leavenworth amid international criticism about the 23-year-old’s treatment during his detention in the Washington area. At Quantico, Manning was held in maximum security in a single-occupancy cell and was allowed to wear only a suicide-proof smock to bed each night.

    Yeah, it doesn’t really matter if Manning was being kept at a country club with a fully furnished luxury apartment complete with cabana boys. Hasn’t the Army seen the signs? They say “Free Bradley Manning” not “Keep Bradley Manning in luxury”. Trying to get ahead of the criticism is futile.

    Speaking of Bradley Manning, our buddy, Jim Hanson, talked with IVAW’s Adam Kokesh about Manning last night on Russia TV. Hanson comes in at about 8 minutes into this video;

    Jimbo showed amazing restraint – I think about the time the fat hippie called the US military “the biggest disgrace”, i would have jabbed a pencil in his forehead.

  • Finally! Shepherd denied asylum in Germany

    Shepherd
    We’ve been following this for years, but it seems that the Germans, after two years of dithering have finally arrived at the right decision and denied asylum for Andre Shepherd, an Army deserter. They were supposed to hand down a decision back in June 2009. I’ve been waiting for this day.

    “The asylum claim was rejected because there is no evidence to suggest that the asylum seeker could have been involved in war crimes or other crimes during another posting to Iraq,” the office said in a statement.

    “He could not cite any concrete crimes his unit committed during his first tour. In addition, as a helicopter mechanic, he was not in danger of becoming involved in fighting and therefore in possible crimes,” added the office.

    We’ve said that since the beginning. Shepherd told the German panel at his hearing that there was a potential that he’d be sentenced to death…even though the Army hasn’t put to death a deserter since Eddie Slovik in 1945. Members of Shepherd’s unit have told us that he was so fucked up as a mechanic, on his tour Iraq they put him in charge of the gym or some shit. A guy who knew him before Shepherd joined the Army told us that Shepherd stole from him and Shepherd’s girlfriend and ended up living in his (stolen) car.

    The only reason Shepherd didn’t go to Iraq the second time was because he knew Jody would get his German girlfriend.

    Shepherd held a news conference Thursday in Frankfurt and claimed the Iraq War is illegal because people are killed with machine guns and Hellfire missiles. Shepherd said he feels guided by the Nuremburg Trials in making his own responsible decisions.

    Strangely, he didn’t mentioned the fact that he signed a contract.

    The Germans ain’t buyin’ what you’re cookin’, Andre. So I guess any Americans that find Shepherd rummaging through their dumpster can club him and turn him over the MPs. BOLO

    More on future convict Shepherd and his cohorts. Is he still a member of IVAW? Someone out there knows.

  • The people talking to your kids about the war

    As I’ve written a few times, Ethan McCord, who was one of the soldiers on the scene during the now-famous “Collateral Murder” video (which was filmed four years ago). Now he’s a man on a mission to “explain” the video to your kids and school children like them with the help of the rocket surgeons at World Can’t Wait. Here’s a screen shot of WCW’s Facebook page where Ethan rejoices at his new-found occupation – teaching your kids;

    If any of you have ever tried to interview a private about what he saw in combat, you’d know that 15 privates will give you 17 stories about the same event. Not that they lie, but everyone remembers traumatic events the way they want to remember it. Of course, Ethan is a mild improvement over the guys that used to tour schools who weren’t even at the scene.

    Speaking of whom, Matthis has published a wonderfully laborious bit of literature, too tortuous to read in it’s entirety. it’s about evil – of course it has to do with him being evil during his time in the military because the Army made him evil. We all knew it wasn’t his fault, right?

    Evil was all around me. It engulfed my every action, concealed itself behind my every motivation, but perceive it I could not. It wrapped our violent fists when we hit the town for drink. It cradled the balls hung from our erections as we forced them inside the natives. It sat in our throats when out flowed the lies that cued our mothers to be proud. It whispered promises of glory to us as we slept and dreamed of conquest.

    We abide by it still, in every aspect of our lives. Even the wise among us abide by evil to proliferate their constructions of a better life; their stomachs bloated by a loaf of its own oven. I’ve said before, “life in the United States is as a tube affixed to your anus through which you inhale the bulk of your existence.” Even the best of us consume the poison of ourselves within this system. How can we not taste it?

    I like how he writes “our” and “We”, but he actually means “You”.

    So, I suppose Matthis should just move out of the United States, since we all have tubes in our anuses – what a childish analogy…almost as bad as his oral sex analogy in the previous paragraph. It looks like that VA-paid college education is wasted. He writes like a pseudo-intellectual high school freshman.

    Ya know what’s funny? Here he is talking about how evil it is to be in the military, to be an American, yet here he is attending college free-of-charge on a benefit paid for by the American tax payer. Yeah, that’s pretty fucking evil. And, oh, by the way, he’s stealing the benefit, too, because his downgraded discharge should have precluded any further college tuition benefits. So when they finally catch up with him (and they will, if I have any say whatsoever), he’ll say he’s being harassed because he spoke out against the war.

    A day is coming when every American will know the evil in himself. That day we will burn the temples and cast out the false gods. We will finally be free of ourselves.

    I’d prefer to just be free of your blather, Matthis.

  • Matthis: I was an occupier in Afghanistan

    Yes, he’s back at telling his lies. Matthis breaks down into crocodile tears over his “occupation” of Afghanistan for six days at the Bagram Baskin-Robbins. “That I was there pointing guns at [children]”. I doubt the Army even let him have a “gun”.

    His piss-poor theatrical performance begins at about 44 minutes into this video taken this weekend in New York. Language warnings;

    Although he had no problem blasting off a belt of blanks. Looks like he’s having fun being a REMF, doesn’t it?

    Matthis and his toy gun

    In case you need reminders, or this is your first visit here, here are his military records which clearly show he was never stationed in Afghanistan (his TDY trip was for six days to write public affairs articles for the European Command). Here is an example of how he treats women. Here’s what his own father says about him. He’s apologized for his “occupation” of Afghanistan before. And he defends his flag burning antics.

    Is it just me or does anyone else feel the need to slap this little bitch across his chops?

  • Manning protest at Quantico

    I don’t know how they did it, but CNN was able to video the protest at Quantico without any shots of Ann Wright (I wonder how many videographers were hospitalized keeping her nasty face out of camera range), but she did get her dusty old ass arrested.

    I noticed that Jimbo did get a picture of the old hag with Tighe Berry and Medea Benjamin. I see Tighe is still looking for his gonads.

    CNN, locked in the 70s, thinks that interviewing Daniel Ellsberg is some kind of coup, I suppose. The anti-war crowd exhumed his rotting corpse to remind us of the Pentagon Papers.

    Reports that Manning has been held in near-total isolation and forced to sleep without clothing during his nearly eight-month detention has sparked outrage from human rights and peace activists. The controversy even played a hand in the resignation of now-former State Department spokesman P.J. Crowley, who reportedly suggested that the Defense Department is mistreating Manning.

    Ellsberg said that Crowley “acted honorably and boldly” for uttering the remarks that got the former Defense Department spokesman fired. Crowley called the treatment of Manning at the hands of the military “ridiculous and counterproductive and stupid.”

    Of course Zombie Ellsburg thinks Manning is honorable, otherwise his own reputation might suffer. It’s kind of like Mao applauding Kim Jong Il as a great humanitarian.
