Man is Coward
Posted: 16 August 2010 by Little Alex in PhilosophyTags: culture, human rights, libertarian, Newspeak, War
Man is coward. He is.
The man who chooses to not stand against war chooses to stand for nothing and is the vilest coward of all mankind. He is the sociopath that plagues the zeitgeist.
He ought to be ostracized from any community pursuing anything near virtue.
He is the hate.
He hates humankind for the Truth of humankind.
He is below the Neanderthal.
Caring not for the undead, he doesn’t deserve to kiss the dirt upon which the hypothetical zombie walks.
He’s never surpassed the machine of the flesh.
Is he even Man?

The first military commission of a detainee renditioned to the U.S. detention center at Guantánamo Bay under the Obama Administration opened Tuesday. Omar Khadr, a Canadian citizen, was kidnapped eight years ago in Afghanistan at the age of 15 by the U.S. military, threatened with rape in detention at the U.S. air base at Bagram, transferred to Guantánamo where he was tortured until he confessed that he threw a grenade that killed a U.S. soldier. Monday evening, Texas A&M at Qatar associate professor Todd Kent noted that it will likely not be a political issue for the Adminsitration because the mainstream media is downplaying it, though criminal justice is a large part of the president’s avatar, at Al Jazeera English’s “Inside Story”—which focused on the coming so-called ‘trial’ (23:41):
