War on Iraq: Turning Our 25-Year Olds into 40-Year Olds

Our Fuhrer Bush has sent 1,049,000 soldiers to Iraq, and 3,067 died, according to the Pentagon's own damning statistics. That is, a full 0.3% of all soldiers sent to Iraq since 2001 have been killed. (You can see the death statistics here; I refresh this page every five seconds and stare at it for hours, weeping.)

So, the Iraq death rate is about 300 per 100,000 soldiers. But according to The Center for Disease Control (on Page 6 of the linked pdf), the overall death rate among all Amerikkkan children aged 15 to 34 is 105 per 100,000 males, and is 70 per 100,000 females.

That means: Sending your 25-year old baby to Iraq increases his/her chance of dying by about three times what it would have been if he/she stayed at home. It is asking your 25-year old child to absorb three years of risk into a single one-year tour of duty in Iraq. It is asking your 25-year old to face the same risk of dying in Iraq as a 40-year old who stays at home watching NPR.

In a word: Unacceptable.


Iraq is a dangerous place; your baby soldier would otherwise be at home, next to your bosom where you would ensure that he/she wears seat belts, does not drink, never rides on motorcycles, does not smoke, watches his/her cholesterol, avoids transfats, always uses a bathmat, never uses matches, does not fix electrical problems himself/herself, never uses ladders, always washes his/her hands, stays away from swimming pools and beaches, and eats a vegan diet.

Instead, they are sent to Iraq to die in Mr. Bush's Holocaust.

And for what?

For violently avenging the 3,000 "people" (i.e., Little Eichmanns) who fell victim to Dick Cheney's attacks on The World Trade Center and The Pentagon? (Assuming that it happened at all?)

For scapegoating a peaceful religion for Bush's murders?

For avenging the Democrats for daring to suggest that Bush stole the election?

I CARE about our troops and DEMAND that they come home NOW, with a promise to NEVER send them to war again; it is not the military's place to go to war.

Living through Nazi Germany was a cakewalk compared to what we must endure in Amerikkka today.

The military is comprised of volunteers, isn’t it?

The military is comprised of slaves.

Slaves who were not given any other opportunities.

Slaves who were not allowed to finish school.

Slaves.

Slaves, who got stuck in Iraq.

Ah, but if you really look at the figures, the death rate of .3% is really only .075% if broken down by the year, and since most of the soldiers are male and not female, it can be concluded that it is safer for an American child to be in Iraq than America.

Dr. (x3) Kurgman,

Unfortunately, I am once again confused (this should not, however, be read to imply that what you write makes anything less than 100% perfect sense).

You have repeatedly stated your belief in the moral righteousness behind total human extinction. Therefore, wouldn't sending soldiers to die in Iraq simply speed up that process, especially if the soldiers murder what the media calls "innocent civilians"? Or is it just that we want Sun People to die last? I'm sooo confused!!

I would never advocate the murder of innocent people, such as the peaceful Iraqis, at the murderous hands of the Amerikkkan military grinder.

However, there is a beautiful learning process behind procreation termination: The last humans will be able to observe the joy among the liberated animal and plant species.

Solidarity in extinction.
