The Shallow Praising of America's Military Personnel

These days, as the president of the United States sends American military personnel into war, to act as "cannon fodder," virtually everyone, including the people who supported the start of the war and/or helped to reelect the serial liars in the White House, praise these military people. Except for the mercenaries, those who joined for the money, those sent into harm's way, to possibly die, are victims of serial lying by serial liars and the public that sent them there. It is therefore especially necessary to heap praise upon those who are being made scapegoats, not for freedom, but for those who make fools of the public.

But once the need is gone for them to be "cannon fodder," then the people responsible for sending them there can care less. One example of the contempt or indifference shown for military veterans−is the case of Richard Taus.

Taus is a highly decorated Vietnam War helicopter pilot, the first person to adopt a child orphaned by the war, and a former FBI Special Agent. During his official FBI duties, Taus discovered and reported corrupt activities of America's leaders. These corrupt activities, crimes against the United States, included:

• Drug smuggling into the United States by people associated with the CIA.
   
• Covert arming of Iraq during the 1980s, under instructions of White House politicians. The ripple effects of this, and the following, were the two wars that the United States started against Iraq.
   
• Covert funding of Iraq's arms buildup during the 1980s under instructions of White House politicians.
   
• Corrupt relationship of his boss, FBI Supervisory Agent Lindley DeVecchio, with Colombo Capo Gregory Scarpa, Sr. Involved in these activities were the murder of American citizens.

After the FBI told Taus to cover up for these matters, and after he foolishly reported the crimes to the nation's top cover-up group−members of Congress−FBI-DOJ personnel filed false charges against him just prior to the November 1988 elections, to get him out of the way and to discredit what he had discovered.

 FBI-DOJ personnel first charged him with misusing a government-issued credit card to put $9 worth of gasoline in his private car that was being used on government business. The credit card charge was made four years earlier.

Then, using its pressure on political local state prosecutors, other false charges were filed. Cooperating political judges then sentenced him to a long prison sentence, incarcerated at the New York state prison at Dannemora, New York, where he will probably die. That is, unless help from the public arrives. And judging from the public's care-less culture, that will probably never occur.

There are many other examples of how military veterans are throw-away, to be discarded once they carry out the dirty work of lying politicians, supported by naive or don't-give-a-damn segment of the public.

Information about Richard Taus is in two recent non-profit books written by former federal agent Rodney Stich, in collaboration with sources in the Mafia, the FBI, and from other insiders:
