and Flights of Thought on War and Politics

---

"The long-held dream of human flight was a dream of freedom.  But more important than freedom from earth's gravity is freedom from abuse of the weak by the powerful in human relationships and institutions, for which our system of government was established and for which many have died and many veterans have suffered in the belief that they were protecting a fair, honest, and noble system.  We now believe that the honesty, integrity and viability our system are under grave threats from within, toward which our "flights of thought" are directed. These - like all flights designed to remain successfully aloft, expand our scope of vision, return safely to solid earth, and reach a desired destination in the process - are grounded in realistic thinking and reliable knowledge."

Mike Hastie, Vietnam Veteran April 20, 2007		FORMULA HELL U.S. soldiers run on blood. The U.S. dinosaur economy runs on the theft of OIL. When the dip stick runs low on soldiers, they wind up in graveyards, or in hospital beds. Or, maybe they wind up in pill bottles, or in a bar, telling their stories of hell, and betrayal. When the U.S. runs low on oil, they send more  soldiers to Iraq, to check the dip sticks for the Corporate Rich. The raised hood on a gas guzzler is an open casket. Support The Troops. Send more soldiers to hell. George Bush and Charles Manson have a lot in common. Mike Hastie U.S. Army Medic Vietnam 1970-71 January 23, 2007
