JCT: Today's news brings Canada another upcoming funeral for
one of Canada's invading soldiers. Braun killed by a suicide
bomber.

An innocent suicide bomber. The Taliban didn't do 911, the
Bush administration did, so the Afghani suicide bomber was
an innocent soul giving his life to kill an invader. A
Canadian invader.

Of course, the Canadian soldier sent into Canada's first war
of aggression, a war crime, was sent by Parliament. So
Canada's M.P.s are responsible for Canada's first war crime
and it sounds like Guy Lauzon, Tory M.P. for
Stormont_Dundas_South Glengarry doesn't like hearing the
truth:

Dear Mr. Turmel, Please be advised that I have blocked you
from sending any further correspondence to this office.
Regards, Aaron Hynes
Legislative Assistant
Office of Guy Lauzon, M.P. 613-992-2524

JCT: "Your mail is censored, Regards."??? I guess we can bet
that Guy Lauzon voted to send our boys to chase the Taliban
after what they did to Canada and doesn't like being
reminded they not only did nothing to Canada, they also did
nothing to Amerika. It's an inconvenient truth for those who
insist we stay they course whose destination they do not
want to look toward.

Speaking of how Osama isn't responsible for the 911 razing
of 3 sky-scrapers with two plane-loads of gasoline, on this
very same date:

Sheen Movie To Portray Rodriguez 9/11 Heroism
PHILIP RECCHIA / New York Post | August 21 2006

PR: The next 9/11 tale to hit the silver screen could be
that of a World Trade Center janitor whose heroism helped
save hundreds of lives. William Rodriguez says he is in
talks with actors Charlie Sheen and Esai Morales to turn his
riveting story into a feature film - and a top writer-
director, David Marconi, is already involved in the project.

JCT: Charlie Sheen doesn't believe in a gasoline fire
melting steel either while Rodriguez is the guy who
testified he heard bombs. It didn't make the 911 report.

PR: In a strange twist on the usual 9/11-hero tale,
Rodriguez had pursued a federal lawsuit charging that the
Sept. 11 attacks were a conspiracy orchestrated by President
Bush to justify wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.

JCT: I guess he's an American who doesn't blame the Taliban
for 911 either.

PR: But the lawsuit, which named Bush and 54 other
government officials and agencies, was dismissed in June.
And Marconi says the film would be a straightforward tale of
heroism.

JCT: I'd rather hear about the suit, considering how the
injustice system works.

PR: Responsible for cleaning the stairwells of the north
tower, Rodriguez - a 20-year veteran custodial staffer - had
the only available master key to the WTC complex when the
first hijacked plane struck. He led firefighters up floor
after floor, unlocking doors and aiding rescue efforts. But
when he got to the 39th floor, the second plane hit and he
was forced to evacuate.

JCT: The second plane hitting the other building forced him
to evacuate?

PR: The last person to escape the tower before it collapsed,
Rodriguez was buried under the rubble for an hour before
being rescued. Rodriguez met Sheen, Morales and Marconi last
month at a 9/11 conference in Los Angeles. "Charlie told me,
'I'd be honored to turn your story into a movie,' "
Rodriguez said.

An Army officer who refused duty in Iraq goes to court with
a novel argument: he had a duty to disobey because the war
is illegal
By ELI SANDERS/SEATTLE

Posted Friday, Aug. 18, 2006

JCT: Since Osama didn't do 911, since Saddam Hussein
certainly didn't, he won't participate in a war of
aggression and ain't no "I was obeying orders" tool.

ES: When he refused to deploy to Iraq in June, Army Lt.
Ehren Watada said he was following his conscience and
upholding his duty not to obey illegal orders.

JCT: And he gets to not die while being a righteous hero.
They should elect him to something, fast.

ES: But that didn't impress military officials, who promptly
charged him with violating Army rules and sent him on a path
toward a likely court-martial.

JCT: Wonderful, a soap-box to question the morality of the
911 invasions.

ES:In doing so, they set up an unusual collision between a
man who is believed to be the first officer to refuse duty
in Iraq and a military justice system that is now
effectively being asked to rule on the war's legality.

JCT: Yes. And Lt. Watada gets credit for leading the charge
against an illegal war of aggression. Hope some Captain
Canuck takes up the fight real soon.

ES: In a packed hearing room on this Army base south of
Seattle Thursday, lawyers for Lt. Watada used the
opportunity to put the war itself on trial, trying to prove
he was right to see the war as "manifestly illegal," and as
a result, to refuse to participate. "A soldier has an
obligation to disobey illegal orders," said Francis Boyle, a
Harvard-trained professor of international law who testified
on behalf of Lt. Watada and whose mentor wrote the Army's
field manual for land warfare. "Under the circumstances of
this war, if he had deployed, he would have been
facilitating a Nuremberg crime against peace."

JCT: Bingo.

ES: Boyle, along with a former United Nations
Undersecretary-General and a retired army colonel, argued
that the U.S. decision to attack Iraq in 2003 without U.N.
authorization made the war illegal from the beginning.

JCT: The Iraq invasion was based on the Bush lie about Weapons
of Mass Destruction. The Afghanistan invasion was based on
the Bush lie that Arabs tricked the Air Force to stand down
and demolished the 3 buildings that engineers had already
condemned as too expensive to repair. The towers had to be
demolished anyway so whoever did "pull" the buildings down
not only saved the owner from a major demolition job but
also scored the billionaire owner all the insurance. How
fortunate for him!

ES: He went further, arguing that the failure of the Bush
Administration to find either weapons of mass destruction or
a provable link between Iraq and the Sept. 11 attacks showed
that Congress was persuaded "by means of fraud" when it
voted to authorize the war.

JCT: America's Congress was persuaded by fraud. Canada's
Parliament was persuaded how? Guy Lauzon M.P. doesn't want
to be asked.

ES:Lt. Watada, 28, is from Honolulu and was part of a
Stryker unit that deployed to Iraq on June 22, without him.

JCT: Good for him. Not only does he not help the bad guys in
their illegal invasion but he's challenging the bad guys in
their illegal invasion! He's got a better case for no
evidence of the Taliban in the 911 pull-down.

ES: He joined the Army after Sept. 11 and initially served
in South Korea, where he received stellar marks from his
superiors.

JCT: A bright boy too who won't kill any innocent invadees.

ES: As recently as last summer he was willing to go to Iraq.
But the more he learned about the war, the more doubts he
had, according to his public statements. In January, after
he became convinced that the war was illegal, he tried to
resign rather than go to Iraq, but the Army wouldn't let him
do so. As a compromise, he asked to be sent instead to
Afghanistan, a war he supports. His request was not granted.

JCT: Har har har har har har. They could have avoided their
problem over the illegal WMD invasion as he would have
joined the illegal 911 invasion! Perhaps only until he
became convinced his government lied about the Osama's
Taliban doing 911.

ES: At the hearing yesterday, a precursor to a court-martial
known as an "Article 32 hearing" - Watada sat calmly in his
fatigues, gave no statement, and during breaks answered no
questions from the many reporters gathered to watch the
proceedings. However, military prosecutors played several
clips of Lt. Watada speaking in public about his reasons for
not deploying.
In one clip, from a Veterans for Peace convention held last
weekend in Seattle, Watada explained that he is trying to
put forward a "radical idea" first born during the Vietnam
War. "The idea is this," he said. "That to stop an illegal
and unjust war, the soldiers and service members can choose
to stop fighting it."

JCT: I think I'd have made the same winning move if they'd
grabbed me when I was a soldier at Camp Petawawa and said I
was going to war over a lie.

ES: That, prosecutors said, is exactly what they most fear.
To give credence to Lt. Watada's argument, they said, would
create a breakdown in military order and discipline. "It's
just dangerous in our Army to allow that to happen," said
Capt. Dan Kuecker, one of the prosecutors.

JCT: Same problem those hung at Nurember had. At least Bush
is around to blame, Hitler took the easy way out.

ES: Whether the war is legal, he said, "is not a decision
for a lieutenant to make, it's a decision for politicians
and legislators."

JCT: It's not up to soldiers to know why they are killing
people, it's enough politicians and legislators tell them
to. Not in this case. And soon, I'd bet, many more.

ES: Watada's behavior, Capt. Kuecker told the hearing, "is
dishonorable and it is disgraceful." Lt. Col. Mark Keith,
who presided over the proceeding, is expected to decide
within the next few days whether to recommend a court-
martial for Lt. Watada. If one takes place, and Watada is
convicted, he could face up to seven years in prison.
http://www.time.com/time/nation/article/0,8599,1228779,00.html

JCT: Lt. Col. Mark Keith may say that not obeying an order
to kill in an illegal war is "dishonorable and disgraceful"
but Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. said:

"A Time Comes When Silence Is Betrayal."

If you do not believe Osama and the Taliban could have done
911, letting our stalwart Canadian boys be placed in harm's
way for another Bush lie means the time has come when
Silence is Betrayal.
