Honoring Fallen Veterans – We Can DO This

Friends and Patriots,

It is Memorial Day weekend and where we, at The National Patriot, would normally publish a story regarding our heroes, this year I am asking for your help.

We hear, every year around this time and sometimes around Veteran’s Day…Stories of soldier’s graves in states of disrepair. We shake our heads, say it’s awful, and wish it were not the case.

It doesn’t have to be the case. We can make a difference.

In every town and city, in communities and neighborhoods across this great nation, there are cemeteries. Within them are the final resting places of our soldiers. Men and women who either died in the service of our country or those who came home, lived and died after their service.

Military grave, many of them, go back to into the ages of time. Many of these heroes families have died or moved away. Those graves receive what care the groundskeepers can provide but that care is dwindling too.

Many cemeteries have faced cutbacks on grounds crews or face financial shortages which reduce the care they can provide.

This is where we can help but before I get into that, allow me to relate a few examples of the disrepair.

Making Our Military PC is Treason

When was the last time our American military won a war?

Ask yourself THAT question. WHEN exactly was it?

I’ll tell you.

WWII.

THAT was the last time our military won a war.

Did we win in Korea? Nope. Vietnam? Clearly not. Did we win the first Gulf War?

Well, there’s a question. We clearly ran Iraq out of Kuwait didn’t we? Yes, clearly we did that. Saddam had promised the mother of all battles and what we saw was the mother of all retreats. Iraqi Republican Guard units were surrendering to journalists and begging for food. They had heard that journalists carried with them…cookies.

At that point, the Republican Guard would have surrendered to the Girl Scouts.

The Iraqi Air Force fled to Iran and Iran kept the planes. It was a route but…Did we win the war?

No…Not really. We won the battle for Kuwait, but we left Saddam in power and did not invade Iraq.

What about the war in Iraq? Did we win THAT one? No. We got Saddam and his sons and chased al Qaeda around but, upon political timelines and decisions, we bailed out before the job was done and now, al Qaeda and Iranian agitators are moving in leaving Iraq a battleground with no clear direction.

The Emperor’s Latest Decree

When you’re the Emperor, everything either is, or is not, what you say it is or isn’t. You and you alone get to decide what laws will and won’t be defended. You get to ignore court subpoenas. YOU get to decide when Congress is or isn’t in session. The Constitution is something which YOU can ignore and religious organizations with THEIR doctrines and beliefs?

Well, YOU, as the Emperor, get to decide that such things are submissive to YOUR reign.

Why on Earth would the military be any different?

The Emperor was able to declare the end of hostilities in Iraq after all. NOT that hostilities were ACTUALLY over but, the Emperor, upon his coronation, DID promise the serfs that HE would bring those troops home.

Many believe the withdrawal of American troops from Iraq was purely a political move.

Nope.

It was OVER and WE WON the peace SO SAYETH THE EMPEROR SO LET IT BE KNOWN AS TRUE. Never mind the increase in violence, IED bombings and the pesky fact that Iranian agitators are stepping up THEIR attacks in Iraq.

The Emperor said we secured the peace and hostilities had ended.

Now, with “Talks” in the offing with the TALIBAN in Afghanistan, the Emperor looking to release 5 Taliban terror masterminds from Gitmo AS A SHOW OF GOOD FAITH, and the continued killing and wounding of our troops in that theater…

Operation Christmas Greetings

The National Patriot has a request. A special request.

While many of our best, the troops who have been stationed in places far away are coming home, we know all too well, many, many of those men and women who wear our uniform will not be home for Christmas.

We cannot tell them how much we appreciate what they do to protect our nation and our freedoms as well as the freedoms of others around the world.

There simply are no words adequate for that.

Here is our request.

If YOU know someone stationed far from home this Christmas, PLEASE forward the link to this article to them. We want to hear from THEM!!!

We want to know where THEY are…What THEY’RE doing and how THEY will celebrate Christmas.

We want those fine men and women to send THEIR greeting to whomever they wish via the comment box below this article!

Please, if YOU know someone, far from home this Christmas, send them this link.

For our uniformed BEST, if YOU have a photo you would like us to publish, PLEASE email it to ctmg1027@aol.com and put “Christmas” in the subject line. Be sure to identify who you are and who is in the photo.

Our Fallen Heroes Disrespected…Shameful.

Because of the way I personally feel about those who protect our nation, our freedoms and the freedoms of others around the world, I am compelled to write this article. It gives me no pleasure to do so, but I want this on the record.

The remains, or partial remains, of some 274 of our heroes, upon their return to Dover Air Force Base, were cremated and disposed of in a landfill.

That alone is enough to cause me great outrage but it is not the only part of this story which does so and, honestly, I do not know which part of this whole thing incenses me more.

It was the families of those heroes who gave authorization to the military, to dispose of the remains in a dignified and respectful way.

While cremation is indeed respectful and dignified, dumping those ashes in a landfill equates to everything which is neither.

In fact, it is shameful.
