** This is one of the most controversial articles I've read from Gordan Duff.
"The truth, as we are slowly coming to realize, is that this war, our wars, all before, all in between were financial scams and nothing more, with a few medals thrown in and a parade. Screw the medals and parades."
Gordan's article hits me right in the gut. Check it out: http://www.veteranstoday.com/2012/07/06/we-dont-no-nuttin/
Here's my truth --- MUCH OF MY EDUCATION (ESPECIALLY HISTORY) WAS A LIE, which was perpetrated upon me. Not only me, but the World of Everyday People have been Lied to their Whole Life.
If you will think about that, not in the context of Anger but with RESOLVE.
Isn't it Time we Demand the Truth?
Yes, it's time to Demand Truth, but it's also Time to Change Ourselves ...
Here's a quote from one of the Commenters
“Few will have the greatness to bend history itself, but each of us can work to change a small portion of events. It is from numberless diverse acts of courage and belief that human history is shaped. Each time a man stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope, and crossing each other from a million different centers of energy and daring those ripples build a current which can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance.”
(Robert F. Kennedy)
