They were "gooks" in Nam...what are the untermentschen called by "our"
troops in Iraq? You ask: "Untermenschen"? Yes. The Nazi word for sub-human. They were tagged Gooks in Nam. So I am just curious what "our" troops are calling the untermenschen in Iraq. It is clear that part of the "combat training" is the brainwashing to consider their targets sub-human.
So, what is the term they promote the young boys to use? Is it sand-niggers? No, the military is too integrated for that. Rag-heads? No, not vile enough. Not utermenschen enough. They need a gook like word..... wonder what it is?
The miltary spokesfuck, Kimmitt, calls them "women and children" for the benefit of the TV audience. That's nice. Until you find out in what terms he speaks about these women and children: "If you don't like watching women and children get killed, change the channel." What a good liitle nazi fuck. But really, what name does Kimmitt the frag and the rest of the occupiers use? They certainly have had time to come up with a good one. Whatever it is, we will learn it only far down the road, since the embedded propagandists won't tell on their comrades.
But the untermenschen die like animals, not in a human way, therefore they must be untermenschen. Interesting. They trap them in a cage LIKE ANIMALS, and then the shit-breath military brass whisper in the earholes of the helmets, "Look at them! Just like animals...not like you or me."
I have a question. Do you support the troops? Do you support their immediate commanders? Their immediate commanders are "the troops" as well. Do you support the commanders of the commanders? They are the troops. Do you support the commanders of the commanders of the commanders? They too are the troops. Herr Kimmitts is "the troops". How about the troops who are playing AC/DC at full plast, blaring it into Fallujah, as if they are in a more violent Waco episode within their own country rather than in a foreign war. But there it is. Iraq is now considered a crazier Texas with a bigger Koresh problem, and it is just a police action. They consider it theirs. The fools.

2. Terrorists.
Kinda like being a crack dealer in the USA. Since the military isn't 90% WASP anymore you have to be careful about your epithets.
