FORT CAMPBELL KENTUCKY OR TO KILL A BLACKBIRD







At Fort Campbell, Kentucky, the Army

sprayed tens of thousands of

blackbirds in the middle of winter

with detergent so that they would freeze

to death. Ann Free, Schweitzer biographer,

reported that as the heat

rose as mist from their dying bodies,

so their souls to rose to God.



Our regime treats soldier children

of the poor in the same way, sending

them to Afghanistan,

to be blasted out of helicopters at night onto frozen

peaks with

stinger missiles supplied

to the Taliban and Mujahideen by our CIA.





BRING THEM HOME



We do not disrespect

any soldier

at any time

in any clime

when we say

to come home.. it's time

The US junta has seen to it that Halliburton

gets a 7 billion dollar contract payment,

while Iraqi soldiers, sacked en masse last

month, have gotten no pay.



Thank you God that for the first time in the history

of the US You

will install now a true democracy in the US, with elected

Supreme and appellate court judges, a Senate based on

1 person 1 vote, etc.
