What we're fighting for

Just read on Fox about the Afghan man -- an aid worker -- who was jailed by the authorities for converting to Christianity from Islam eight years ago. His friends are concerned that agents for the "religion of peace" are beating him in prison, and have threatened to kill him if he does not reconvert.

Well, it's come to this. American soldiers are dying to protect a nation that persecutes and murders Christians.

God help us.

    We're there to protect the spice route and all the opium. Where do you think they get the opium that is in all of the most addictive and abused pain pills?

    True, but it not the "typical" American soldiers fault that they are where they are.
    What's next?

    We're fighting in Afganastan because our great black leader O'Blamer has declared this the 'just' war. Even though he has failed to define an objective, just take his word for it that it's 'just'.

    Has everyone forgotten that we are there to kill Bin Lauden? I know the administration has. Those people will never be our friends.
    I hope the troops haven't forgotten.

    When you're wounded and left on Afghanistan's plains,
    And the women come out to cut up what remains,
    Jest roll to your rifle and blow out your brains
    An' go to your Gawd like a soldier.
    Go, go, go like a soldier,
    Go, go, go like a soldier,
    Go, go, go like a soldier,
    So-oldier ~of~ the Queen!

    You have 10 minutes to provide a reliable source for that info. or forever be doomed to the ranks of the tin-foil hat wearers.
    Some will die in hot pursuit
    And fiery auto crashes
    Some will die in hot pursuit
    While sifting through my ashes
    Some will fall in love with life
    And drink it from a fountain
    That is pouring like an avalanche
    Coming down the mountain

    ...What we're fightin' for?
    Care of Country Joe McDonald and the Fish:

    Give me an "F! ..."F"! give me a "U"! ..."U"!
    Give me a "C"! ..."C" Give me a "K"! ..."K"!
    WHATS THAT SPELL? ..."bleen!" (x5)

    Well come on all of you big strong men, Uncle Sam needs your help again,
    he got himself in a terrible jam, way down yonder in Vietnam,
    put down your books and pick up a gun, we're gunna have a whole lotta fun.

    CHORUS
    and its 1,2,3 what are we fightin for?
    don't ask me i don't give a dam, the next stop is Vietnam,
    and its 5,6,7 open up the pearly gates. Well there aint no time to wonder why...WHOPEE we're all gunna die.

    now come on wall street don't be slow, why man this's war a-go-go,
    there's plenty good money to be made, supplyin' the army with the tools of the trade,
    just hope and pray that when they drop the bomb, they drop it on the Vietcong.

    CHORUS

    now come on generals lets move fast, your big chance is here at last.
    nite you go out and get those reds cuz the only good commie is one thats dead,
    you know that peace can only be won, when you blow em all to kingdom come.

    CHORUS

    now come on mothers throughout the land, pack your boys off to vietnam,
    come on fathers don't hesitate, send your sons off before its too late,
    be the first one on your block, to have your boy come home in a box

    CHORUS

    Alrite !!!!!!!

    Any one else notice that the anti-war movement has suddenly disappeared? They sure were vocal and well covered by the media during the last admistration.

    Feelin' like it's all over, feelin' like there's no love
    Feelin' like it's not easy, breathin' life in the dust
    On a countdown to zero take a ride on the nightmare machine

    There ain't gonna be heroes
    There ain't gonna be anything
    Oh
    Here it comes, here comes the night
    Here it comes, hell in the night
    Here it comes, here comes the night

    When we all fall down
    When we walk into silence
    When we shadow the sun
    When we surrender to violence
    Oh
    Then the damage is done
    Put away that gun!

    I don't wanna be there
    I don't wanna be anywhere
    Oh!

    [Repeat Bridge]

    That's right!
    We're fightin' for the gods of war but what the hell we fightin' for?
    We're fightin' with the gods of war but I'm a rebel
    And I ain't gonna fight no more no way!

    [guitar solo]

    On a countdown to zero
    Take a ride on the nightmare machine
    There ain't gonna be heroes
    (Whoa)
    There ain't gonna be anything
    No!

    [Repeat Bridge]

    Don't ya know that's right!

    [Repeat Chorus]

    And (a) I ain't gonna fight no more

    (Stop)
    Stop fightin' for the gods of war
    (Stop fightin' for the gods of war)
    Yeah what the hell we fightin' for?
    (What in the hell we fightin' for?)
    We're fightin' with the gods of war
    Heavy!
    Some will die in hot pursuit
    And fiery auto crashes
    Some will die in hot pursuit
    While sifting through my ashes
    Some will fall in love with life
    And drink it from a fountain
    That is pouring like an avalanche
    Coming down the mountain
