Terrorism - America: Muder Unlimited :: Argumentative Persuasive Topics

the States Muder Unlimited   Theres been no peace in my breedingtime as an American. I dont know if fear of nuclear war had any effect on the Soviet Union but it sure affected me. The background irradiation of the Manhattan Project has followed me everywhere.   Was I born with post-traumatic stress disorder? No, my mother verbalise I was a happy baby. She must have done a good job distracting me. At least, I didnt notice that I was lving by means of an endless series of wars.   But as a citizen of the United States, Ive lived done one war after another. They were not all called wars. In the past tense twenty years the American military has been involved in Iran, the Philippines, Puerto Rico, Korea, Guatemala, Egypt, Lebanon, Iraq, Panama, Laos, Cambodia, Indonesia, friar preacher Republic, Oman, Chile, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Honduras, Libya, Bolivia, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Somalia, Yugoslavia, Bosnia, Haiti, Croatia, Zaire, Liberia, Albania, Sudan, Macedonia, Afg hanistan, Cuba, and many more.   I didnt repeat any countries even though we had repeated engagements with some. I know I have left hand out some.   In January 1961, President/General Eisenhower said, In the councils of governance, we must harbor against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex. The potential for the grim rise of misplaced power exists and will persist.   We were in the Cold fight more than 40 years. We have been in a war with Cuba for 39 years and counting. We have been in an ongoing war with Iraq for 10 years.   Economists give tongue to about the peacetime expansion of the U.S. economy. There hasnt been a time in my life when the U.S. was not involved in killing people in my raise somewhere in the world. Yet this passes for peace. I think this is because U.S. military employment has always been global, mostly out of sight, away from home.   Years ago the U.S. governme nt was killing Buddhists in the jungles of Southeast Asia. Now it is killing Muslims in the mountains of southwestern United States Asia. This is what this Judeo-Christian country keeps doing while pledging allegiance to its flag, singing patriotic songs, and invoking its mingled of God, a Supreme Being.   These things go on simultaneously. The military activity is ageless and continuous. That is why the military budget is so large, more than $350 billion this year.
