This is some silly shit right here<\/a>. Mathis Chiroux, the IVAW’s biggest drama queen liar who once stopped at an airbase in Afghanistan for six days apologized to Afghan peace activist Malalai Joya for occupying Afghanistan;<\/p>\n

[I]n 2005, for a brief time, I helped occupy Malalai\u2019s country, and it was wrong. It was my mistake. I should not have been there. I should not have been supporting this oppression of her people. Today I want to look Malalai in the eye, and I want to tell you, Malalai, how sorry I am for the violence that my Army has done to your people, to your country. I want to apologize to you for the role that I played in it. I was wrong, and I will show you that my country and the rest of the world can come to a place where they can admit wrong, apologize, and offer some sort of reconciliation.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Six days. I once spent six days occupying a table at the Ovalo Bar in Panama on a drunk. Maybe Chiroux would like to show us on his Form 2-1 where his “occupation” was recorded by the Army;
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nOr show us his campaign medal for his “occupation” in his records;
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Further down, he plants the seed for his future PTSD claims;<\/p>\n

I was really happy to be in Japan and Germany, but felt the U.S. had no business in either place. I was sent to other places, Italy, the Philippines, and Afghanistan, for example to write an article about how great the U.S. military is to provide medical care to Rumanian NATO soldiers wounded in Afghanistan. On these assignments, I had to carry a weapon: I don\u2019t want to think about how many women and children it may have inadvertently been pointed at. As an Army journalist it was my job to collect and filter service member\u2019s stories. I heard many stomach-churning testimonies of the horrors and crimes taking place in Iraq. For fear of retaliation from the military, I failed to report these crimes. Now I feel I struggle with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), in part because of deep feelings of guilt that I used my art to further what I now consider to be a racist, imperialist and ultimately genocidal campaign.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Yeah, we don’t belong in Japan and Germany – that’s why those two countries are constantly fighting for us to stay there. And now he’s going to claim he got PTSD FROM LISTENING TO STORIES! Yeah, I got PTSD from watching The Longest Day AND reading the book. That’s more ridiculous than the clown, Zach Maddox<\/a> who got PTSD from pulling guard duty on 8th and Eye Street barracks in DC protecting it from pizza delivery guys who looked like Osama bin Laden. <\/p>\n

In related Chiroux news, he posted a press release on his blog today in the run up to yet another hearing date for his discharge reclassification. As we’ve come to expect from this prima donna, he thinks he’s going to turn an Army Administrative hearing into a three ring circus;<\/p>\n

\u201cI go now to St. Louis to honor my promises and convictions,\u201d said Chiroux. \u201cObama or No-Bama, the military must cease prosecuting Soldiers of conscience, and we will demonstrate to them why.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Soldiers of conscience, indeed. He’s a crybaby sissy who didn’t want to have his lifestyle disrupted despite his commitment to his country. Well, the people who know him say it best<\/a>;<\/p>\n

Chiroux\u2019s true character emerged after his orders to deploy. Prior to this moment, he had no inclination to rant against his \u201cillegal war.\u201d After all, it is easy to take from the government as long as you\u2019re not serving it. Upon his realization that time was limited, Chiroux took a trip back to Germany to visit an ex-girlfriend. This is were the story gets interesting.. He was heard stating that he would run away to either Europe, essentially Spain, or to Canada as a means of avoiding the war. This was stated by him in tears of fear, not of any sense of illegality of mission at hand.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

If I may paraphrase it, he’s a big smelly pussy who threatens women, drains their checking accounts and casts them aside. And a dork.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
