Waco wasn't exactly carried out by the US military (It was mostly ATF Bureau) but the Feds definitely acted in a military-like way when they massacred non-violent men, women and children living in a commune.

The Kent State Shooting however, was carried out by the Ohio National Guard. Also, for those who may not know already, It is against the law to use the US military against US civilians.

It's scary and sad that we are having this conversation today.

Gore Vidal's Perpetual War for Perpetual Peace

Sadly still relevant.

I would add to Ron Paul's praiseworthy opinion that NATO's encroachment upon Russia has provoked Putin to act upon Crimea. Obama's sanctions could very well escalate the conflict.

Similarly, Gore Vidal said in his short book, "Perpetual War for Perpetual Peace: How We Got to Be So Hated." that the U.S.A. military based in Saudi Arabian holy territory had provoked Osama Bin Laden. http://www.amazon.com/Perpetual-War-Peace-How-Hated/dp/156025405X

Since you were so nice to ask.

I went off this book

But then I went to the source material (FAS) and 'only' found 64 instances.

So, yay?! You're not as bloodthirsty cunts as Gore Vidal claimed.

I have changed your status from "Belligerent dangerous cunts" to "Belligerent dangerous cunts"
