They infuriate me too. My compatriots infuriate me a lot.
Some of them infuriate me through my own country’s socialist state-run media, the CBC, which still calls the war on terror the ‘so-called’ war on terror. Our state-funded classrooms are filled with teachers who are so provincial in their thinking and so treacherous that they openly hate George Bush and everything conservative, and encourage their students to think as they do; and will lie and put at great risk the sanctity of our mission in Afghanistan simply to sully America and George Bush. Our news media is filled with anti-Bush, anti-America rhetoric daily. Their stupidity knows no bounds.
Is it any wonder there are “doubters” at home? And whose fault is it?
Many Canadians should be utterly ashamed of themselves. Embarrassed. And the media should take the lead in this regard.
There are countless stories like these, below.
Soldiers feeling burned
Doubters at home infuriate troops in AfghanistanKANDAHAR, Afghanistan — Canadian soldiers expressed bewilderment, surprise and anger that people back home would question their role in Afghanistan.
Troops interviewed in violence-plagued Kandahar this week were unanimous in support of their mission in the face of growing concerns about Canada’s most perilous military deployment in decades.
One described a near-death experience on his first full day in Afghanistan, saying it still gives him nightmares. But the experience hasn’t dented his faith in the mission’s goals.
Another soldier struggled to contain his anger when told of a recent public opinion poll that suggested most Canadians opposed the Afghan deployment.
“I’ll hold my tongue — but that burns me, really,” said Cpl. Pascal Johanny of Shediac, N.B.
“The Canadian public has always approved of Canadian missions — in Bosnia, in Kosovo, always giving their support.
“Now we’re here in one of the worst places that needs the most help, and now they don’t want to support us? It’s kind of odd.” […]
It’s odd all right. It’s odd that the liberal-left media in Canada would supplant the real, noble goals of the mission, in favor of their rabid, absurd, self-defeating anti-Americanism and even more absurd, irrational, and transparent anti-George Bush fervor; and in so doing give Canadians a phony story—a lie—and literally mislead Canadians for their own selfish political ends. They in the liberal-left media will risk Canada and the liberty and democracy and culture of the entire west through their abject perfidy—if only to “win” against George Bush, so shallow are they and their liberal-left ideology.
The liberal-left mainstream media is the enemy, and they have many allies in academia and in the entertainment industry among others.
This web site salutes the soldiers in Afghanistan —from Canada, the United States, the UK, and from wherever else they come. This web site supports the war in Iraq and stands with America very proudly. This web site supports the war on terror in Afghanistan, Iraq, and anywhere else it needs to be fought. This web site also stands solidly behind Israel and against those who would cause harm to that nation and its people.
