Lock Arms with American Defenders
Posted on 25 May 2008 by Col. Harry G. Riley (U.S. Army, Retired)
The anti American groups in our country who demonstate and shout hateful and disgusting un-patriotic slogans are rarely challenged by normal Americans who typically ignore their banter. I disagree vehemently. As a professional soldier I do not believe in the concept of conceding any portion of the battlefield to the enemy, especially since the rationale for the lack of direct response often is “We’ve always done it that way” or “they’re a bunch of kooks.” As we saw a generation ago, street theater can be turned into political muscle, especially when most of the country’s voters remain uninformed on the facts, and we have a weak-kneed Congress. If you remember, in the 1960’s and 1970’s the late President Nixon questioned the commitment of the Conservative Majority in our country even as the vocal minority collaborates with our media to make everyone believe that they are the one who ownes the street and the moral high ground. We saw the results of this misguided policy in the communists’ murderous rampages in Southeast Asia after pro-communist groups prevailed upon the US Congress, mainly through street theater and accompanying media fraud. Congress abandoned our allies in that region and turned victory into defeat. “Kerry Lied, Millions Died” should have been the American rallying cry, instead of anti-American bombast and misrepresentations. Our previous history, shameful surrender of the battlefield at home while our warriors won all their battles in Vietnam, will not be repeated. We will not allow this dishonor of our current soldiers who are defending our freedom overseas. Kerrys group of misfits, the Vietnam Veterans Against the War has morphed into a new group calling themselves the Iraq Veterans Agains the War or IVAW. Using Kerrys 1971 “Winter Soldier Investigation” as a model they plan to hold a new investigation on March the 14th, 2008 in Silver Springs, Maryland. They allege that our current US troops are a new generation of war criminals. But this time there will be another voice on the home front. My organization, Eagles Up, www.eaglesup.us along with numerous other pro-troop groups, is working to put “boots on the ground” to expose the IVAW’s lies to America and the entire world. Our purpose is to counter and challenge IVAW Winter Soldier II (WSII) Testimony on March 14 by demanding “truth.” March the 14th and 15th will be a huge victory for America.
