Wikileaks Video from US gunship slaughterfest

[go2]

I feel quite ashamed that this is only just now starting to dawn on me......I have no idea why only now? I 'knew' this was going on...I guess I just didn't grasp it well enough.

Yes, RedFox, we all should be ashamed for how little we have done. The video is worth a thousand words. The Apache gunman are young killers, imagining they are heroes saving their families and country from the terrorists. My best friend in high school enlisted in the Marines after graduation. I talked to him after his first return home from being a machine gunner on a Huey gunship over Vietnam. I had received a draft notice from the US Gov. He told me, "I am killing rice farmers and their families, do anything you have to do to avoid my fate....I am a killer of the innocent!" His life and words turned me to resistance to these crimes. It is estimated that US forces murdered between three and four million human beings in Vietnam.

I will quote Mr. Gurdjieff from "Voices In The Dark" by William Patrick Patterson speaking to J.G. Bennett on killing human beings......even though I don't see that these gunman are not evil. I think many of the soldiers are like my friend, brainwashed to believe authority which assures them, killing is necessary to protect our country, you are heroes. I cannot see the video without struggling to keep the horror from diverting attention from "growing a soul and helping others who would grow a soul."

Nobody ever does anything deliberately in the interests of evil, for the sake of evil. Everybody acts in the interests of good, as he understands it. But everybody understands it in a different way. Consequently, people drown, slay, and kill one another in the interests of good.

History had proven, he said, the philosophies, religions, movements and politics that treated man in the mass and not as individuals were failures. The only solution was the separate and distinct growth of each individual in the world.

Some days it feels as if we are running out of time and the horror is too great, however, I will not stop or I will die like a dog and not a human being, that I would be!

What we are talking about is US jets etc going in and bombing entire neighborhoods in Iraq and US soldiers and mercenaries "killing anything that moved". The American butchers in the US military and government knew from day one (in fact long before then) that the "Iraq war" was against the ordinary civilian population of Iraq because THAT was the resistance. NOTHING you have been told about Iraq by the mainstream media is true. NOTHING. If you want to begin to understand the horror of it all, and that is a big "if", then you first have to forget everything you think you know about what has gone on there over the past 7 years.

I'm not sure I can answer that one....but I do think understanding the horror of it all is important. Right now I don't think I could withstand the full force of that.....I've never considered that before.
This is the first video like this I've been able to watch without stopping it, or shutting down mentally/emotionally.

Totally agree go2.

So, this is war nowadays? This is called a BATTLE? This is what the Pentagon teaches their soldiers? And they are called professionals???

Why do I have a suspicion that this will be the kind of "war" or "battle" to be enacted in US cities in the future? You know what I mean, when eventually things break down due to civil unrest when the economy and dollar finishes tanking and people get frustrated. Suddenly there are millions of Americans walking around with "weapons". Maybe mostly intended for self protection as people rob and kill each other.

Yeah, I can see helicopter pilots flying over US neighborhood saying "we see six individuals with weapons. Request permission to engage".
"Roger that"

and like the video you might also hear:

"Oh, yeah, look at those dead bastards."
"Nice."
"Good shoot'n"
"Thank you"

I watched most of it Monday evening. While slipping into sleep later that night, I was awakened by a replay of the video in my mind along with that song by Away With The Fairies: "I don't care".
I guess the intellectual and emotional center was processing the experience as it was very unsettling and disturbing.

We're bound, bound, bound to one another,
but it's bang, bang, we're killing one another,
...for what?
Tell me what for...
...for who?
Why are we always at war?

That song also made a deep impression on me as well, as you can probably see from the associations.


I've got the article here as well:

This is just one of hundreds or thousands of such incidents that Iraqi civilians have experienced at the hands of US soldiers, military helicopters and jets. At a minimum, half of the 1.3 million dead in Iraq were killed directly by the US military, the other half were mostly killed by US-sponsored death squads as they attempted to create the "reality" of a civil war in Iraq as per the orders from the office of the Vice President. So just multiply this video by several thousand times, with much larger number of dead and you get an overall picture of the "Iraq war".

This is unfortunately "just" one of hundreds or thousands of such incidents. Taken with consideration for Vietnam as well and there is cause for shame, but there is also cause for awakening to just how effective the brainwashing of the Jewish media has been, and in that regard I think this WikiLeak demands close scrutiny.

What we are talking about is US jets etc going in and bombing entire neighborhoods in Iraq and US soldiers and mercenaries "killing anything that moved". The American butchers in the US military and government knew from day one (in fact long before then) that the "Iraq war" was against the ordinary civilian population of Iraq because THAT was the resistance. NOTHING you have been told about Iraq by the mainstream media is true. NOTHING. If you want to begin to understand the horror of it all, and that is a big "if", then you first have to forget everything you think you know about what has gone on there over the past 7 years.

Right, everything we think we know has come through Zionist propaganda filters insulating American collective consciousness from the barbarity. Nothing we've been told is true, and we've been so conditioned to focus attention on warm humorous cartoon clowns that we're all primed for outrage at being exposed to such soul-less brutality of the gunship footage. Which makes the WikiLeaks disclosure that much more curious to me.

To me the WikiLeaks release of the gunship slaughterfest seems a purposeful imposition of a snuff-video. If we've opened our eyes to the realities of the snuff-video 9/11 provided, and we understand what Perceval points out about the gunship incident being one of thousands, then why does a 2007 incident warrant a major PR push by WikiLeaks now? I can imagine several COINTELPRO justifications if I were king.

1) Traumatize common sensibility
2) Provoke outrage at a past event distracting from current operations
3) Induce shame
4) Promote idea Fourth Estate is alive and well
5) Divert everyone exercising close scrutiny of emerging events

Reviewing the SOTT articles focusing on the WikiLeaks release I was struck by Julian Assange's interview with Russia Today in many ways. Partly I find his moralizing fascinating, but in particular his answer to the question about WikiLeaks becoming the flag-bearer of the Fourth Estate caught my ear wondering whether he really said what he said, and so I had to listen close.

WikiLeaks editor speaks out about Apache massacre video
[quote author=Julian Assange, WikiLeaks editor speaks out about Apache massacre video]
Reporters that don't have new information to some degree have nothing useful to say. And what keeps people honest, and what keeps our management over civilization going is we understand how the world actually works. So the first step in the 4th estate is to get information out about the real world. And the second step is to comment on it and to think about it. That we need sources that can get restricted information out to the public. Restricted information is very interesting economically. So when information is held back by a bank or the Pentagon, and extra attention is used to suppress it, in this particular case Reuters applied for this information through the Freedom of Information Act and spent the last two and a half years trying to get it and were not able to. Usually that suppression is a result of fear, so in this particular case, seems that the Pentagon or the US military at some level was scared of this information coming out because of the reform effect of the information.

So trying to follow Assange here, the reason we needed this snuff-vid now is so that he can confront the fears of the Pentagon, and we need to trust him because he understand how the world actually works and that's what keeps his management over civilization going. And don't mind all the economic interests surrounding his restricted information. K, thanks got it.
