THAT IS BUNCH OF MONEY BOUT AS MUCH AS THE TWIN TOWERS COST US, JUST
THANKFUL ITS HAPPENING OVER THRRE INSTEAD OF HERE, sAW WHERE AL-QUIDA
NOTES LEFT IN BOMBED HOUSE SAID THEY WOULD WIN IN IRAQ, AND FINISH IN DC

I'm glad to finish the job elsewhere, too.
Facts on the twin towers: After September 11, the federal government set
aside $5 billion for victim´s families and agreed to spend over $21
billion to help New York recover. How was it spent? New York politicians
allowed up to one-third of the $20 billion in federal aid awarded to the
city in the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks to be squandered right under
their noses, an analysis by the New York Daily News found last December.
But that hasn't stopped some of the same politicians from complaining
all weekend about a mere $80 million cut in New York City's federal
anti-terrorism budget.
Senators Hillary Clinton, Charles Schumer and Rep. Peter King say
they're outraged over the new cuts, with Clinton and King teaming up to
launch a post-card writing campaign against the Department of Homeland
Security.
The bipartisan duo sounded a lot less angry six months ago, when the
News uncovered evidence that billions in 9/11 cash had been misspent,
gone unaccounted for and, in at least one case, was awarded to the
Mafia.
C'mon Brother Bell, $320 billion is over ten times more than $30 billion
for Twin Towers. And the point---the government budget predictors---got
it all wrong is valid. Overspending is unpatriotic and helps Al Quaeda---their
strategy is to have the US spend enormous wealth with little to show for
it, and have the war be rabidly defended by U.S. hawks who tear down the
other part of the US society that opposes them, thus dividing the United
States from within. We are both on the same side for this, and those who
support those tactics of division might as well buy themselves an Al
Quaeda card.

Sad day again the media needed a story in a hurry even though the
military ask the media to hold off on story till families could be
notified.
I have my political differnce with others but this be truthful. Kill
them first cause they will kill you, your spouse, your kids, and your
grandkids if given the chance.
It is also sad that the guard is being ca;lled out to Nollins. Damn why
can't some people see what they have done with there laws ( Jesse,

the US forces in Iraq oughta do some talking with the Iraqi army they
are training and get on the same page. Who are we supposed to trust for
accurate information if they cannot be accurate with their news

I think all the Viet Nam era war vets from PLE should weigh in on
this issues of war and comparing the modern-day Iraq soldier with the
Viet Nam soldier. They can speak with authority and give us some
guidance. As a starter, let me quote what Jimmy Arceneaux said to me
when he came back from 'Nam. "I liked it, but that was because I really
liked killing." Any more Veterans? If it brings us together to express
our views then let's do it and then move on.

The problem as I see it with Viet Nam and Iraq is this, We should
have never sent our troops to these countries in the first place. We
could have fought this war without getting bogged down and puting our
boys at such great risk. Hit and run from Afghanistan was the smart play
yet once again idiots are in charge.

why is there and what is war?
Way too complicated for an old country boy like myself to give any

However, I appreciate your, big bell's and all other brothers' views on
Iraq, Viet Nam, etc.
Please continue the discussions. as brother pee wee once said, "Any post

Let us continue to pray for guidance and I am confident our hearts will

There was a question about war. How to stop wars? "Wars cannot be
stopped. War is the result of the slavery in which men live. Strictly
speaking men are not to blame for war. War is due to cosmic forces, to
planetary influences, but in men there is no resistance whatever against
these influences, and there cannot be any, because men are slaves. If
they were MEN and were capable of 'DOING,' they would be able to resist
these influences and refrain from killing one another."
"But surely those who realize this can do something?" said the man who
had asked the question about war. "If a sufficient number of men came to
a definite conclusion that there should be no war, could they not
influence others?"
"Those who dislike war have been trying to do so almost since the
creation of the world. And yet there has never been such a war as the
present(WW1). Wars are not decreasing, they are increasing and war
cannot be stopped by ordinary means. All these theories about universal
peace, about peace conferences, and so on, are again simply laziness and
hypocrisy. Men do not want to think about themselves, do not want to
work on themselves, but think of how to make other people do what they
want. If a sufficient number of people who wanted to stop war really did
gather together they would first of all begin by making war upon those
who disagreed with them. And it is still more certain that they would
make war on people who also want to stop wars but in another way. And so
they would fight. Men are what they are and they cannot be different.
War has many causes that are unknown to us. Some causes are in men
themselves, others are outside them. One must begin with the causes that
are in man himself. How can he be independent of the external influences
of great cosmic forces when he is the slave of everything that surrounds
him? He is controlled by everything around him. If he becomes free from
things, he may then become free from planetary influences."

I feel like John McLaughlin and we are "the McLaughlin Group." And
as he would say, "Wrong! the answer is: war sometimes has to be fought.
But where it becomes EVIL is where men make a cash cow out of it because
of government connections, and that ambition for self profit overshadows
the original noble goals of the collective citizenry. The result is, the
heavy expense of security bloated with profit for profiteers sinks the
country before the enemy by bankrupting it. And THAT is unpatriotic."
PS Thanks to Brother MS MAN for his sacrifice and insight from someone
who was there.

I am outraged at the behavior of the enemy. But what they want is to
generate outrage in America that will consume it from within. They will
not win that battle for my mind, I will never blame a fellow
American--Democrat nor Republican---for those barbaric acts. If I take
out my anger on fellow Americans, then the propaganda works. Propaganda
will not work in a free society if we are not manipulated by those who
hog the media spotlight. This is a time for uniting as Americans, not
being split. An eye-for-an-eye and tooth-for-a-tooth leaves us both

So some may ask, "Hey Dr. French, what's your beef with loudmouth
war hawks?" I'll answer: Loudmouths like Rush Limbaugh talk the talk but
don't walk the walk. They are all for escalating and rubber-stamping any
policy that includes more military action, yet hid from military action
when they were asked by their country. Rush applied for a Vietnam draft
deferrment with a note from his private doctor excusing him because he
had a "pilonidal cyst"---that's a boil on your ass to you and me. Yet I
was assigned 1-A ready for combat despite the existence of now-crippling
muscular dystrophy disease. Sure I felt a little weak, but I thought if
called, (wasn't), that basic training would get me "back in shape." Boy
was I wrong on that one...So, I was willing to be drafted and go to
Vietnam with a crippling and often fatal disease, yet pansies like Rush
who expouse military solutions, paid a private doctor to get them out of
serving. And what to speak of heroes like MS Man and others who served,
or Ricky O'Brien who earned a Purple Heart in combat? It besmirches
their name to have chickenhawks use them as a prop to increase media
ratings.

thi9a is my cause, I flunked two medicals for Nam once due to torn up
knee and surgury a few days prior to physical and once due two a second
surgury on my back.I should have gone.
My love of country goes back to days even before Nam my fgamily always
served. My dad had a complete disability from WW II of course it never
stopped him from working hard and being a great and successful salesman
But I didn't go.I will stand and fight for what I truly beleave and
those that served I thank you. Nam was a bad war friend died and I said
other friend never came back and killed themselves.But the same people
that built us to a 500,000 person Army in Nam when thing got tough
dropped the support for our people. I will not speak furture on this

I agree, this topic has been covered. And the PLE Message Book
reflects the honest differences of opinions among honorable PLE

"loudmouth"---Rush Limbaugh is a "Loudmouth" Brother Bell is NOT a

avoided service and now attempts to re-write history for those too young
to be there by making themselves out to be great military supporters. It
sounds like Brother Bell was true to his word then and he's true to his

This man knows as much about the inter-workings of our gov., as well as
it's laws and bi-laws, as anyone does yet he uses his energy and
influence to further his and his parties views, right or wrong. This an
abuse of power and a creation of a "BLOW-HARD". He has been down graded
to a political Shock-jock/ spin doctor, feathering his own nest.
