You Gotta Have Faith

[poliphilo]

People mostly accept the version of reality that's presented to them by parents, teachers, preachers, journalists, politicians and other authority figures. They'll say, "you can't believe everything you read in the papers" but they mostly do. People have faith- a quality recommended to them as wholly admirable by the fraudsters and psychopaths who run the world.

This is true--I have friends and former students who have returned broken in mind and body--and the VA has made them worse instead of better while denying their injuries are war related.

One of my friend has video tape of the firefight that trapped her and her group for over twelve hours while the Black Water mercenaries were SUPPOSED to aid them in getting out, but left them there instead. They had inadequate ammunition and came very close to being wiped out.

Now, they deny her PTSD and say her physical injuries are not war related but a product of "arthritis."

Another young woman I know was raped in Afghanistan--and when she went to the VA, they said group therapy was in order--so they put her in the supposedly "only available" therapy group--all male, all sex offenders.

Seriously?

This is the best we can do for our troups?
