Fabricated atrocities to promote eternal war. Seems appropriate on Memorial Day to remember the actual atrocities perpetrated by my government on my generation. So here's to my old friend, P, who returned from Vietnam with nascent agent-orange-triggered cancer. The therapy for which then proceeded to ruin his lifelong health. The massive amount of hidden atrocities and ruined lives of its own citizens as a a result of US foreign policy in itself merits the appellation "atrocity" as Ron Kovic would doubtless opine; and it drives the selection of Memorial Day as my friend P's most hated day of the year. Yet we demean the victims of US atrocities through the propaganda of a feckless media driven by big money. Please don't freaking tell me, Newsweek et al., that you honor the service of our veterans.

It's becoming obvious the Ukranian government is preparing for capitulation to Russia as they are trying to clean-up their act and present scapegoats for their atrocities to their fellow Ukrainians and Russian military. It will be the contents of mobile phones that will condemn the Nazis in the Ukrainian military. I expect Russian tech will be able to recover deleted videos.
