RIP, Major Bob Marchanti

10 Comments

If you crawled out from under your rock for at least a few minutes this past week, you probably heard that Frothing Fundamentalist Fruitcakes™ of the Perpetually Outraged Muslim persuasion have been rioting in Afghanistan after the US disposed of some books…

Yes, they were books. They were Islamic holy books which were defaced by insurgent pig humpers – books they used to send messages to one another – but they were books nonetheless.

And because of this… incident… rotting, ignorant, murderous sacks of swine excrement killed two innocent men. US Soldiers who volunteered to leave their loved ones in America and help that pestilential pit of opium and disease out of the Stone Age.

One of those Soldiers was Major Bob Marchanti. We deployed to Kosovo with more than 1000 others in 2007 as part of KFOR-8. Bob and I didn’t “hang out.” We weren’t buddies. We had a professional relationship. I knew him. He was a good man, an excellent leader and an exemplary Soldier.

But the fact that we weren’t close doesn’t make the loss any less real or painful. We hurt for all the Soldiers and their families who are hurt or killed in Afghanistan. We shake our heads as huge, opulent funerals are staged for celebrity crackheads, and we remember those with whom we spent months and years – those who perished without fanfare or flowery words from celebrity commentators. There is no 24-hour news cycle detailing the deaths of our fellow service members.  Perhaps because there are so many of them, that society has become too accustomed to them… too complacent.  We mourn our fellow service members and we remember their dedication, their love for their country, their skills, their leadership and their guidance. We know who we are. We have served with them, lived in the same barracks and tents with them, and worked with them.

There’s nothing much left to say about the fetid, loathsome pieces of dirt who go on killing rampages such as this. Misha was eloquent as usual in his mock “apology” to Hamid Karzai, even as our own President issued apologies about the accidental burning of the Korans.

His Imperial Majesty is sorry too. He’s sorry that we wasted untold billions of taxpayer funds and, what’s infinitely worse, American lives trying to bring your fucking miserable hell hole of a backwards heap of barbarian shit into, at the very least, the 12th century. His Imperial Majesty is sorry because a few ICBMs would have achieved more than that at a fraction of the cost and we would never, EVER have had to waste a moment of time on the sensibilities of your newly created field of glowing glass. We’re sorry that you’re still sucking air, and we’re enormously sorry that we, somehow, gave you the impression that we give a flying fuck at a rolling donut whether you live or die.

You have already seen the potent “apology” of Kira Davis.

And many of you might want to check out the advice of Blackiswhite, Imperial Consigliere about what a REAL President would have written to Hamid Karzai.

I know you don’t really understand this, but trust us, it beats the hell out of being a splodeydope for 72 raisins. However, if you can’t get your rock-worshipping savages under control, the gloves WILL come off, because there is a new sheriff in town here, and we don’t really give two shits about “world opinion” until the world starts policing their own shit.

I will add my own words of love and adoration to Hamid Karzai.

Listen, you festering yambag. We know you’re a morally corrupt, ungrateful bag of rancid effluvia, who sleeps ass-deep in Iranian cash, and who condemns the West at every turn, even though without us you’d still be humping your goat for entertainment and drinking sheep piss to stay alive. We understand that you don’t give a flying rat’s fuck about the people of Afghanistan, their plight or the fact that we’re there to help and train them.

But enough is enough!

What do you suppose would happen if we began rioting and killing off your people every time you burned the American flag? What do you think would happen to you and your swine-fellating brethren if Americans went on murdering rampages every time we saw images such as this?

Or these?

Or this?

Or even this?

Because I guarantee you that we, Americans, feel just as strongly about our flag as you do about your book. I guarantee you we understand what it stands for, and we love it just as much as you love that holy text of yours. Even more so, because we understand the meaning of it. We understand what it symbolizes. We appreciate the freedoms for which it stands. Meanwhile, you and your cattle sodomizers can’t even READ that book, since the vast majority of you cockslurpers are illiterate, and the only thing you know about that book is what your pedophile imams tell you is in it!

So trust me when I tell you that if we ever started rioting and killing you bastards every time you burned an American flag, there wouldn’t be a whole lot of you left.

You killed a good man the other day. You left his family fatherless and husbandless, and you left his friends and fellow Soldiers wondering why, after the roads we built, the kids we befriended, the infrastructure we erected, the troops we trained and the rights-destroying Taliban we booted out, you would kill innocent men because someone burned a book that you cannot even read!

Rest in peace, Maj. Marchanti. They can’t harm you any longer.

My new future wife

It’s Friday, and I don’t feel like blogging much, but I feel I need to share this.

I have found my future wife. I’m totally in love with this chick. Her name is Kira Davis She is awesome in every way. So instead of blogging why I love her, I encourage you to listen to her.

Oh… and if she’s already spoken for, I nominate her for President. I don’t care which party.

Maj. Gen. Fuller Relieved of Duty

This story makes me sick.

Yes, I understand MG Peter Fuller’s remarks weren’t politically correct, and weren’t in lockstep with the politicians’ meme about the hard working, honorable Afghans whom we’re helping build a democratic nation. But you know what? His remarks were dead on. And for stating the truth, he was removed from his duties.

He called Karzai “erratic” for recently saying Afghanistan would side with Pakistan if the latter declared war on the U.S.

“Why don’t you just poke me in the eye with a needle!,” Fuller was quoted as saying. “You’ve got to be kidding me … I’m sorry, we just gave you $11.6 billion and now you’re telling me, ‘I don’t really care’?”

Fuller also said he had trouble explaining to Afghan officials that Western funds were limited. “You guys are isolated from reality” he said he told Afghan generals. “If you’re in a very poor country like Afghanistan, you think that America has roads paved in gold, everybody lives in Hollywood.”

“I actually had someone senior tell me, ‘All I want to do is put them [tanks] on a flat bed and drive them around in a parade’,” he added.

Fuller said Afghan leaders “don’t understand the sacrifices that America is making to provide for their security. And I think that’s part of my job to educate ‘em.”

Worse, I don’t think the Afghans care about the sacrifices we’re making over there. I think they are beginning to view us as an occupying force, instead of a nation that is trying to bring them out of the Stone Age and provide a modicum of security to their desolate, corrupt land. Gen. John Allen remarked that “The Afghan people are an honorable people, and comments such as these will not keep us from accomplishing our most critical and shared mission: bringing about a stable, peaceful and prosperous Afghanistan.”

With all due respect to Gen. Allen, this is the politically correct version of events. The Afghans, with Karzai at the helm, do not want them in their country.

As, MG Fuller remarked, Karzai actually admitted Afghanistan would side with Pakistan if there was ever a war between our nations! This after we spent billions of dollars and lost thousands of lives trying to help his people live better lives!

Karzai is a corrupt bag of festering swine diarrhea. Honorable? Fuller was merely saying what diplomats whispered about at their cocktail parties, as revealed by WikiLeaks last year.

He may be vital to western plans in Afghanistan but Hamid Karzai is regularly described by frustrated diplomats and foreign statesmen as erratic, emotional and prone to believing paranoid conspiracy theories.

On some occasions Karzai’s own ministers accuse him of complicity in criminal activity, including ordering the physical intimidation of the top official in charge of leading negotiations with the Taliban.

Worse yet, we were complicit in this crap. We gave Karzai money, and so did Iran, and he gleefully took it, even as the ungrateful hemorrhoid badmouthed our country and yammered on about NATO becoming an “occupying force” in his festering shithole of a country, where the rate of drug additions is twice the global average, and approximately 8 percent of the entire population are addicted to opiates.

Honorable, indeed.

And while this may be an unpopular statement among politicians, I find it instructive that more than 93 percent of respondents to a poll on MSNBC actually support MG Fuller’s statements, and believe he was merely telling the truth about what’s happening to our Soldiers and our money in Afghanistan.

His may be politically unpopular statements, which probably didn’t help our mission over there, but I don’t think their “truthiness” can be disputed.

And while I understand why he was removed from his duties, it definitely wasn’t because he was lying.
