Someone sent us this link to a World Can’t Wait propaganda piece<\/a> about yet another anti-recruiting campaign at some unknown school during which Matthis;<\/p>\n

…talked about being given a choice of jail or the Army at age 17, seeing the world as an Army journalist and telling the story the Army wanted told, before successfully refusing orders to Iraq and becoming an anti-war activist.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Yeah, we all know that Matthis was a high school graduate when he was arrested for selling mushrooms near a grade school playground when he was given the option of going to trial or joining the Army. He was 19 at the time, not 17. The difference of course is that he was supposed to be more of a grown up than he tries to relate to the easily-influenced children in the high school. This time, he was facing a real pound-you-in-the-ass prison stint instead of just the previous basketball games at the juvenile detention center.<\/p>\n

The WCW article continues;<\/p>\n

…a couple of students said to their classmates that they aren’t going to sign up for the military, after hearing about the reality of these wars of occupation.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

How did they hear about the “realities” of the wars? From Matthis? That’s a joke. How could he tell the realities of the war from his perch in Germany and Japan?<\/p>\n

Someone else wrote to me that the Left acts like the wars have ended because of their inactivity lately. I wrote back that this is their hibernation period every year. Since the old hippies depend on the participation of college students, those students are more focused on their Thanksgiving and Christmas breaks than wars just now.<\/p>\n

They’ll gear back up in the Spring when the anniversary of the Iraq War rolls around. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
