"The Friend of my Enemy..."

...is also my enemy. OK, that's not the way the old saying goes, but it's still true. The asshats coming to protest today at the funeral of Cpl. Carrie French say that God killed her, and will continue killing American soldiers. Since those who killed her also think that God is on their side, it seems to me that the protesters share beliefs and goals with the terrorists in Iraq.
Now, I won't treat these enemies of America the same way I'd treat our terrorist enemies; these people are too wacko to take seriously... at least for now. I'm off to join whatever counterprotest there is at the funeral site today, and hope to have pictures and a report later. (Rumors on the street are that we might have some visitors from Mountain Home AFB.) I've never been to a demonstration, so I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do; normally, I'd mock and belittle them (or as my liberal friends might say, "stifle their dissent") but I don't think that would necessarily be appropriate at a hero's funeral.

Going deep to reposition to the west...

Back at PD, 1419 15 Jun: Just got back from the funeral site. Fred Phelps and what I guess were his family were there in all their "glory"; let's see what these self-described "Christians" have to say, shall we? (Update 1727 16 June, re-update 1221 20 June: Better versions of the pictures below can be found at Ninme's place, here and here.)



Not very nice, is it? These asshats were out to protest against the funeral of CPL Carrie French in her hometown of Caldwell, Idaho. I headed out there to show my support for CPL French, her family, and fellow Soldiers; here's what I saw...

I arrived about 1230; Fred Phelps and his family were already set up at a corner across from the grounds of Albertson's College, a private university in Caldwell. The Caldwell Police Dept. was handling the event in a very professional manner; a Caldwell Police Captain I was talking to said that they wanted to ensure the safety of the protesters (since they seem to complain a lot that they're in danger of being bombed). Here's how they provided for their safety:



He did say that the Phelps clan complained a little bit that they weren't very visible from the front of the auditorium, but hey... their safety was what counted.

I went over to take some pictures of the asshats, and get a closer look at them. I can report that they appeared to be mono-gastric, bi-pedal, and carbon-based; other than that, I really couldn't see even a glint of humanity in their eyes. As I left, one of them shouted at me, "Make sure lots of people see those pictures." I didn't respond.

At 1245, some fire trucks arrived, and parked in their pre-designated spots. I asked the Police Captain if this was pre-planned; he said that "it just worked out that way". Here's the view of the protesters that the family would now have to endure as they entered the auditorium after the fire trucks arrived.



The French family had apparently said that they didn't want an organized counter-demonstration, but some people felt the need to come out and silently show their support for the family. (All in all, there were probably fifteen civilians, including four off-duty Boise policemen, standing a silent vigil.) Here's one such young lady:



At 1252, the blue-shirted protester, probably Phelps' son, shouted at a carload of soldiers turning into the parking lot, "Watch out for IEDs!" After this, he started shouting "French is in Hell" to everyone who passed. On two occasions, he shouted this to young women who appeared to be the right age to be Carrie's classmates. Their mothers had to restrain them; I talked to one who walked by afterwards, tears streaming down her face as she sobbed "Those bastards", and I told her that I'd do my best to tell the world what horrible people these are. The other young woman so accosted just yelled "F*ck you!" back at the protesters; the protesters just laughed.

They were doing a lot of laughing. The old man had about four signs (including "Thank God for 9/11", "Thank God for IEDs", "Fag Troops" and "U.S.A. Sin = 9/11") that he held up in turn; the "son" had an "America is Doomed" sign, and the wife? daughter? had "God Hates Fags" and "Fags Doom Nations". She also talked on the cell phone a lot:



Finally, it was 1300, and time for them to go. The loud-mouth dipshit "son" took a quick filmclip of the area, they got into their van, and they drove off.



I got to thinking about what kind of country allows people like this to flaunt their unpopular opinions while being protected by the police. The answer, I decided, is only a country that is strong in our democratic beliefs and sense of our own destiny would continue to allow this. Here, at a funeral honoring a hero who had given her life so that people halfway around the world could be free, we saw those charged with protecting the weakest of us, the police, firefighters, and Soldiers, protecting people dedicated to tearing down everything they hold dear. And these people had the strength of character to ignore the asshats trying to ruin this solemn occasion, and concentrate instead on the good of this country: the part of the country that produces heroes like CPL Carrie French. America is not doomed, Phelps "family"... it is your mindless, attention-grubbing hate that's headed for the dustbin of history...

Going deep...

Update 1618: Ninme's got better resolution posts of some of my photos...

Update 1636 15 June: Fellow Ida-blogger BinkyBoy seems to be questioning my manhood in this post; he seems brave after the fact, but beforehand, he didn't seem so -- eager to fight, shall we say. In case he changes his post from before the funeral, here's what he said this morning...

"There are still a lot of soldiers from Mountain Home going to stop Phelps, which is definately something that we don't want to be in the middle of."

Update 1627 16 June: Thanks to everyone who's stopped by and left their thoughts. Ft. Boise has a report from when Phelps' and his crew last came to Boise; I think this helps explain why the local papers are pretty much ignoring their stunt. Here's what the Idaho Statesman had to say about the funeral itself.

Update 1502 17 June: Ma Deuce Gunner was there for the first part of Cpl. French's last journey, and has some thoughts on the matter...

Update 0921 20 June: Welcome to the readers of all the great blogs who've sent traffic this way, including Instapundit! If you'd like to read more about submarines (the main topic of this blog), feel free to look around, or check out the submarine group blog at Ultraquiet No More.

I had no idea where to find these "people", and from the looks of it its a good thing. I was there to pay my respects however, and that I did.

However, realize that there were also nutcases in the auditorium, usually speaking at the podium. All it was was a bunch of hawks trying to justify their need for revenge upon Muslims by quoting the bible and using her corpse as a puppet.

So I think it was just as disgusting inside as it was outside.

Well, binkyboy, I think we'll have to agree to disagree on this one. I'm assuming that you got nothing out of the funeral other than "those military meanies are spewing jingoistic crap". No feeling of a sense of honor? The camaraderie of people serving together in a cause they believe in? Didn't think so...

Thats what I would have expected, camaraderie, not the bullshit that Gov. Goodhair and Major General Hawk-boy pulled out of their asses. They used this for political points, not as a memorial for a young woman. I was overjoyed to see so many military personnel show up from around the country, not just Idaho. I just wish they could have come to a real memorial that honored the fallen, not used as justification for their illegal invasion.

Stinkyboy,
The MILITARY didn't invade Iraq.
Iraq fostered Al Qaida training camps.
Saddam also paid Al Qaida to do his dirty work. This isn't jingoistic spew, this is the safety of this nation and what it stands for.

And before you start asphyxiating about the Weapons of Mass Destruction that we sold Saddam and where are they, let me remind you that he compartmentalized his program and he used SCUDS on our troops in Kuwait when the ground war started in 2003.

How do I know? My husband sent me open source statements from the Middle East.

In a word, BITE ME.

Wow, anonymous, can you possibly provide proof that Iraq was in league with Al Queda? no? Didn't think so.

Do you have proof that he used WMD's on our troops? If any proof existed it would have been paraded down every paper in the US as justification was finally found for Bush's hard-on invasion.

If you have open source statements, don't you think you owe it to the American public to provide it? Otherwise you just come across as another right-wing apologetic fool.

So many of the right-wing wants to believe that the left-wing hates our military. Nothing could be farther from the truth, no matter how much you want to believe it. The left-wing is against the use of our military in a poorly planned invasion of a sovereign nation, resulting in the deaths of people like Corporal French. Have any of you actually read and understood the ramnifications of the Downing Street Memo or do you just write that off as a "CBS memo" or a "Newsweek" story?

Oh, and as for my credentials, I figure that paying attention to all of the military experts, generals and even Senator "freedom fries" that the war has been poorly handled, has had little to no planning for the aftermath and is showing signs of being a "loss" for America arn't exactly personal credentials, but it is an accurate assessment of the current situation. I can't help it if you are so quick to write off Joint Chiefs and 4 star Generals once they stop supporting your beliefs and start speaking against the war. The only people currently supporting this war up top are those that havn't seen any of it, chicken hawks one and all. Do you like to align yourself with yellowbellied warblers?

To Binkyboy: Are you questioning my husbands honor and integrity. If so, please let me tell you that being married to this man for nearly twenty years I have never met or known a man with such high honor and integrity. My father(I would also include my step-father in this as well) would never have allowed me to marry him if he wasn't who he is. I have two young men who are being taught how to open doors, pull out chairs and "YES" even to stand up for any lady that needs it. You personal do not know my husband or I and you seem like the kind of man who would wether judge than to get to know someone who had a very different opinion than you. So to end this post I would like to say the following: Matthew 7:1-2 "Jugde not, that ye be not jugded." "For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again."

According to publicly available info, you claim to have a six year old son, are a rock climbing enthusiast from Wilder, a whiz software programmer and visitor to an interesting, Dutch forum. You consider yourself a "pacifier", which is how you derived your nickname. Was correct on your age, but if the photo you posted to talk to teenage girls is genuine, you appear to be a darkhaired, crewcut male. I apologize for calling you a lawyer. Instead of rock climbing, I still recommend foreign travel to someone of your innate intelligence and youth. Your name and e-mail address are safe with me.

Carrie French is dead! She was a daughter, maybe a wife ( I don't know) ; a human being and an American Soldier. Her family DESERVES the right to say farewell in peace and in dignity. As an American Soldier she deserves the honor and thanks of a grateful nation regardless if one agrees with politics or not. This kind of demonstration is plain despicable and deserves nothing less than total contempt.

This type of thing is just fucked up. If you read my writings you'll find I am no fan of the war in Iraq, but to do this is totally and completely despicable. Fred Phelps and his people suck.

There is proof if you would care to look for it. As to news media carrying stories about the TRUTH let me remind you Dan Rather backed a forged memo, two so called journalists whined about members of their profession being targeted (were that the case Geraldo would not have lived to tell the tale of how he was dismissed from his unit...I know the COL who kicked him out), and the NYT keeps up the incestuous amplification of lies, innuendo and spin from the DU.
Not to mention BIAS.
THAT is why they didn't report on the SCUDS being used. Wasn't a news blackout on the part of the military, it was selective reporting on the part of the Lame Stream Media.

#3) I wanted her memorial to be about her, not about how the right-wing wants to believe the Iraq situation to be all about "the spread of freedom!"

#4) The "forged" document you so fondly refer to has never been proven forged, its origins were questioned and the sources backed off, but no actual proof has ever been offered up.

#5) No SCUD's were fired, every time Fox News reported it, 2 hours later the military would recall that information. All missiles fired from Iraq, according to DoD releases during the time (yes, I received them) were short range missiles that were allowed under the charters and sanctions.

#6) You still have not offered proof. I understand you want to hate Iraq, it more justifies your anger and fears. You don't have to feel guilty about the killing of foreigners if you convince yourself they are less than human, so continue on with your self delusions.

#7) I have travelled around the world over 3 times, mile wise. I've been to war torn countries, I've been in areas where Americans were routinely kidnapped and held. Keep assuming you understand me and you'll always come up short.

Binkyboy: I was happy to see that your blog has gotten all of three comments in the last week... congratulations on having such a successful forum for your opinions! (I'm especially impressed by your Technorati profile; don't worry, after it cycles through, you'll have at least one link!) I'm sure you aren't going to be convinced by anything I or my friends say about the necessity of the war in Iraq, nor will we be impressed by your "facts". I was hoping to get back to the original reason I linked to you (which probably brought you more traffic than you've ever had; of course, your sitemeter isn't public, so I can't tell). Can you honestly still say that you would have confronted the protesters? Consider the following facts (which you could have gotten yourself if your time management skills were better): 1) The Phelps' love publicity; 2) There was a Channel 6 camera filming the whole time, hoping for someone to confront them so they could put it on the air; 3) The family had asked that there be no confrontations; 4) The police had asked us "counterdemonstrators" not to give the asshats the satisfaction of engaging them in conversation. Armed with this new information, do you think that maybe your plan of rushing in to yell at them might not be the best idea? (Your one commenter even agrees.)
As far as your original comment on my blog -- this was a military funeral; also, I don't see anything in your "report" or any news account that looks anything like people were calling for "revenge on Muslims"... maybe a little hyperbole on your part?
Anyway, I'd like to invite you to continue your discussions over on your website; I'm sure all five visitors a day you get after my link goes off my front page will appreciate it...

I think killing foreigners is cool, especially when they are burning our flag and screaming "death to America". I don't care if there were WMD's or not. I don't care if GW "lied" about his reasons because I know he was right in his actions. If it weren't for the U.S., there would have been WMD's, and they would be used against US. There are no innocents, just people who are fearfully unwilling to sacrafice for what it right. Doing nothing does not make you innocent.

So you have traveled the world three times over milewise, and allege that you have been to war torn countries.

Well, so have I. You don't mention what countries or what wars, so your delusion is that somehow you have 'lived,' and have seen 'things.'
Pardon me if I seem underwhelmed by your lack of credentials. You can travel the world over several times milewise and never be too far from your comfort zone, which is what I suspect is true in your case.

Well, The Desert Voice is a media publication. I don't know if they are still on line or subscription required; I got mine delivered. Where was it from? Kuwait.

The Dan Rather memo was faked and heads rolled at CBS because he and his team didn't bother to check the veracity of the contents or the type used.

Bubblehead said one thing earlier about the camaraderie within the military. I was in the Army in the medical corp and that is something I so totally understand and I would hope most others could as well.

Unlike some here, I do NOT support this president or his administration and most especially this 'war.' However - to me and many others I know - supporting those in military service whose job it is to go when called upon is a totally separate issue than supporting this 'war.'

It seems that Iraq is headed in a good direction. It will take time and hard work. On the part of the Iraqi people and on the part of our forces there in theatre.


I am a (mildly disabled) veteran of the U.S. Army. I find the actions of the Phelps family to be so thoroughly disgusting that I sit here nearly shaking with rage.

binkyboy,
You can choose whatever you want to believe about how our media would react, but there have been so many acts of heroism as well as things I saw that I never want to see again, that go unreported day after day after day, that I don't think there would be a report about the discovery of WMD's in Iraq in the New York Times. If you put that much faith into our news media, I feel pity for you. And as for whether or not WMD's were used against us in Iraq, well, this winger got GASSED on the way in! A SCUD impacted some distance from our convoy, but the wind was pushing its contents in our direction. Fortunately, we masked and suited up in time. I'm proud that I served over there in our "illegal war," as you like to call it. But I'll tell you, one look into the eyes of all the Iraqis I met, and I knew we were doing the right thing by being there. I've ranted long enough. So that this post isn't completely heavy, I leave you with this poem, by Dr. Samuel J. Hazo:

No soldiers choose to die.
It's what they risk by being who
and where they are.
It's what they dare,
While saving someone whose life means as much to them as theirs...
Or more.
To honor them, why speak of duty,
Or the will of governments.
Think first, of love,
Each time you tell their story.
It gives their sacrifice a name,
And takes from war it's glory.

"Each Time You Tell Their Story"
-Dr. Samuel J. Hazo

God bless our President,
God bless our Troops,
God bless America!

"binkyboy" says he doesn't hate the military--and without pausing--calls them war criminal...

Here is your war justification, moonbeam: Saddam surrendered at discretion after the Coalition kicked his tail out of Kuwait. He and Iraq were paroled but did not live up to the conditions the UN put on that surrender. In other words, he, Saddam, broke the surrender contract. He continued to point tracking radars at Coalition aircraft flying UN-imposed no-fly-zone patrols.

If you're such a poser that you don't know the diference between search radar and tracking radar, that's not Bush's fault. However, pointing that type of radar at an aircraft is the equivalent to pointing a gun... in international law, it is considered an "act of war".

why not put down your pseudo-intellectual comic books and pick up something that will get you a job so I don't need to spend tax dollars paying for the professional psychiatric help you apparently need for your angst?

If you really believe what you write, you owe it to the American People to go to Iraq and bring back pictures of the truth. I'm pretty sure you could get over there and back on commercial carriers.

However, if you enlist in the US Army, you can get your airline tickets at government expense. And a free set of life-coaching, personal trainers, and educational assistance...

But be aware that they will expect you to tell the truth... an expectation your fellow bloggers don't have of you.

There's something I don't understand about these fuc^D^D^Dprotestors (well, more than one thing, but one I'll ask about here).

The scum^D^D^D^Dprotestors "complain a lot that they're in danger of being bombed"... and yet they hold signs saying "thank god for IEDs"... doesn't that mean they would WANT to be killed via bomb blast?

I cannot believe that these people were actually what they call protesting this soldiers death.
I cannot believe how stupid, arrogants and inconsiderate people can be. This young soldier gave her life defending these Iraqi's and defending our country.
Each and everyone of those people should have been rounded up by the police who were protecting their idiotic butts and hauled off to jail. Better yet they should be put in a camp sort of like Iraq and shot at.
I hate how stupid people can actually be.

God bless our troops and keep 'em safe until they come home. I salute you all.

An outrage! A freaking outrage! Protesting a funeral in a residential neighborhood. I agree with the comment I read somewhere that this was "fighting words" and that the whole gang should have been hauled off for a breach of the peace. Or at least deny them the right to stage a public protest in a private neighborhood.

If some neo-Nazis had protested my father's funeral because he was a Jew, I would have had some friends beat the crap out of them.

This is horrible for the family. Those protesters are the ones who are going to burn in Hell. Actually, I would rather that they burn in this world first.

Although Saddam didn't use WMD against the US (likely to be largely ineffective because our soldiers are equipped with gas masks etc.) he did use them against noncombatant Kurds. That is itself an act of terrorism.

So Saddam: Terrorist, WMD.

And to get out of the first gulf war, there was an agreement to cease hostilities. Violation of the conditions of that agreement would end the cessation of hostilities. Saddam violated it regularly, particularly by firing upon aircraft patroling the "no fly zone". That was an act of war on his part, and is a fully sufficient reason to resume hostilities.

So: Not an illegal invasion, and if you think it was poorly conducted, you have to have a better way to accomplish the same effect. (other than to have Saddam agree not to be an asshole, which is merely a game of "wish-chess".)

OK, proof of what the National Socialist Left think about our military:
http://www.zombietime.com/


Networks of the Left researched and cross-referenced:
http://www.activistcash.com/index.cfm

http://www.discoverthenetworks.org/

Saddam had murals painted showing him in front of the WTC as the planes hit, smoking a cigar. These pictures were taken from terrorist training camps in Baghdad and northern Iraq. The media keeps trying to say these camps were for training Iraq's anti-terror forces, but US troops found the truth and try desperatly to get it out.

Saddam paid roughly $25,000 for each suicide bomber in Isreal.

Iraqi special operations and government officials, under Saddam met with Bin Laden's reps several times.

The UN WMD inspection teams noted the dissapearance of Iraq's inventoried WMDs before being expelled for the last time.

The Intelligence Agencies of France, Germany, Russia, Britton, and the US all confirmed WMD projects in Iraq. They also stated they were highly mobile.

Massive convoys were spotted leaving Iraq for Syria before the war

A terrorist attack aimed at Amman, Jordan was stopped last year. The terrorists were using trucks filled with chemical weapons and 17.5 tons of explosives. The captured terrorists related their story of training in Afganistan, moving through Iran into Iraq. Fighting and losing to US forces there and then moveing to Syria where they linked up with Iraqi military in Syra and obtained the weapons. This story ran for all of 1 day, but never made it to the front page.

We spent 12 YEARS and 14 UN Resolutions with diplomacy on Iraq and got NOWHERE. The UN authorized the Use of Force in Iraq in a resolution. What we found out later was UN member nations and UN officials were activly collaborating with Saddam and making billions.

The 1st Gulf War "ended" with a cease fire contingent on Saddam obeying it. He violated every point of that cease fire but one (invading Kuwait). He used MIG 25 BR recon jets (brand new after the Gulf War and sold in violation of the embargo) to violate the "No Fly Zone". With so many points of the cease fire violated, 14 UN resolutions authorizing increasing levels of punishment, missing WMDs the world had records of, violations of the embargo by UN officials... Do I need to go on??

As for "poorly executed".. what a crock!! We have the lowest casualty rates in a war EVER. The equipment and soldiers performed extremly well (I am a US soldier in case you were wondering). Even the horror of "friendly fire" was the lowest it has ever been. It took 12 years after WWII before terrorists attacks stopped in Europe (some would say much longer) and (West)Germany had free elections. Iraq had elections in 1 year. Its economy is growing, its people are increasingly turning in or killing the terrorists.

As for the "Downing Street Memo", where are the originals? Odd, isn't it that there are none?

So, what more proof do you want? Problably nothing I say will help those who hate America, hate the Military (the irony when rabid pro-abortionists call me a baby-killer), think the War on Terror enslaved us (the sheer fact we have hate-filled voices calling for the death of President Bush and the defeat of the US allowed to speak without punishment disproves that theory), and rejoice at every setback we have, or they create (ie, US soldiers are NAZIS).

As for this "religious" nutcase, I hold him in the same catagory of extreme disgust I hold Move-On.org, International ANSWER (aka, the World Workers Party), the KKK, Neo-NAZIs and other hate-filled, power seeking, totalitarian minded, violent freaks.

And the worst (or most ironic) part is I will gladly give my life to defend their rights even though these same people not only seek my death, but would spit on my grave. And so will 95% of all other soldiers I know.

It's outrageous that Phelps' would do something like this, but we in the Topeka area are unfortunately very familiar with Fred Phelps and his tactics. I can remember clear back in middle school and high school (which was about 10 years ago) his group protesting different events, including Model UN events, put on by middle and high schoolers. He protests events at the Topeka Performing Arts Center, churches, and many other events. Any big event in Topeka, he's usually there. No one here listens to his group. And no in this country should either. He's a bigot, and while he is now travelling to events in other communities (probably because he can't stir up controversy here anymore, since everyone has written him off), these communities should ignore him. His message of hate will get no where if people ignore him.

As a confirmed bleeding-heart liberal myself, my views on the war would come as no surprise, but I find it disgusting that someone would choose a blog post about a military funeral as a place to start up an argument on the war.

If you see a mother grieving over the loss of her soldier son/daughter, would you think that was a great time to walk up to her and try to convince her that they died for a mistake? I think "asshole" would be the kindest possible word someone could apply to a person that does that.

As for these Phelps protestors, what a pathetic waste of humanity. I think the family did the right thing by taking the high road and not doing them the favor of a confrontation, but it must have taken an iron will. I can't think of many things worse than protesting at a funeral, and this particular protest is so disgusting there just aren't words for it.

Rest in peace, Carrie French. The rights you fought for are well worth defending, no matter how hard a few individuals may try to prove otherwise.

Those who are, so correctly, outraged by Fred Phelps and his shameful protest of funeral should probably look into what drives him and work to challenge that - it is a very fundamentalist, very anti-gay agenda.

Perhaps it's time to stop letting "mainstream" fundamentalist like Falwell, Dobson, and Robertson have a free pass on their hateful rhetoric.

Perhaps it's time to stop letting fundamentalist control religious dialog in the country.

Fred Phelps is nothing short of amazing. He has managed to do what few can. He has united a dyed-in-the-wool-liberal such as myself, with all of you on the subject of Fred Phelps.

I share your disgust of him and his concomitant actions.

And before any of you asphyxiate yourselves, I come from four generations of USNA graduates, great grandfather on down. Two of my uncles were career CIA, one had the Russian desk, the other had the China desk, during the cold war, until they retired. My other uncle was career Pentagon. So I feel pretty cofortable saying that this bullcrap about liberals and the military is nothing more than an attempt to dismiss some serious concerns with a wave of a tarbrush.

All of my family are democrats, Roosevelt democrats, Kennedy democrats and Clinton democrats. And I have never heard one of them say a disparaging remark about the military, just the opposite.

But here's the problem: the generals were never allowed to run this war. If they were, they would never have made the mistakes. The problem was, that the President and his political advisor had a little problem on their hands, namely, an America that wasn't more that very slightly over 50% in favor of the war. So at any point during the buildup, they had to continue the charade of this will be short and sweet, because it is unlikely the American appetite for war would have extended that far--say all the way to the 500,000 that were needed and coincidentally, the same number that Bush41 felt was sufficient to get the job done in Kuwait, but not enough for IRaq invasion. So how did it happen that this group wanted less. Well, the generals NEVER wanted less. But the political situation could not withstand more. So, you go to war with the political climate you have, huh?

Nope, I don't think that the mess in Iraq can be laid at the door of our wonderful and professional military. I aly the blame for this at politics directing policy, rather than deciding what the policy is going to be, and then helping to educate the public into agreement about the politics of any matter.

And that sucks.

i am somewhat left of karl marx, as anti-bush as they come, and believe that the iraqi invasion was one of the biggest war crimes of the last 50 years (but see? i avoid hitler references). and yet i weep for this fallen soldier, for a woman and for a family whose hearts were set on defending the freedom of the greatest nation on earth. i may believe her misguided, but never less than honored for her sacrifice.

oh, and if she was gay as phelps & co seemed to believe, i would have supported her right to marry another woman. a pretty small concession given what she risked and ultimately lost.

CPL French, as far as anyone (including her boyfriend) knows, wasn't gay; the Phelps clan seemed to be protesting in order to a) get publicity for being unfeeling idiots, and b) pretty much because they seem to think that because we don't, I don't know, execute all gays or something, that the whole country is evil. People who both support and oppose the war can agree that Phelps' particular brand of hatred is extremely vile.

To all the liberal commenters -

Would you like to know why I find you insulting and disrespectful? Because on a post about how Phelps and his clan of asshats were isulting and protesting the funeral of a soldier, you had to bring politics into it. Bubblehead didn't howl about how liberals were being rude, or how Democrats pissed him off, he spoke about how so called Christians acted at CPL French's funeral. And what did I read in the comments? Bullshit arguments that have already been refuted over the war in Iraq, insults against our president, and indiference to the actual subject of the post.

Lovely. Just lovely. Just for once, I'd love to read a comment from a liberal that mourned with us about CPL French's death without a "But, ChimyMcHalliburtion blah blah blah blah blah" added on to the end of it. However, since you obviously can't separate your politics from any other part of your life, I shouldn't expect you to act with appropriate behavior on this blog.

Bubblehead, as an Idaho resident currently stationed with the 65th RRC, I appreciate you writing about this. At least if I couldn't be there to support the French family, there were other military people there.

I am sorry for the family of that girl, but this is not the first time US soldiers die to fulfil certain political goals (vietnam, korea etc...). It might not be very pleasant for her family to hear, nor it can be easily accepted by a common US citizen, but there actually is no other reason for that war except for the oil and control of a country in the middle of an important region of the world.
There were no proofs for the MD weapon presence, no proofs for the support of Al qaeda and all in all - no other way unavoidable danger for the national security. All the declarations of the contrary - are only statements of certain people, who are involved in the whole business (or hired by those involved, or fooled by them) and therefore can't be independent by default.
Of course there goes a guerilla war, where people die, but if, for example, China invaded the US (well... theoretically they can) - there would be the same situation in your country. Or maybe not - there is quite a different ideology in the islamic world, which leads us to another problem - the US has invaded the society of totally different ideology with its own view of the world.
This just couldn't work out. Your ideas and youe way of life are uncommon for the arab world.
For thousands of years European and Arabic civilisations were going in different directions and you hope that they will be happy to accept the Western way? That they will gladly exchange their national food for McDonaldses? That their women will gladly fight for the even rights when they were bought up with the idea they have to obey the men? There are more other examples - I am not saying I like everything about the Islamic world, but it worked ok for them until you came and said - for the last several thousands of years you lived wrong, we know a better way.
Stop dreaming - it is not going to be THAT easy. It will take several generations make them forget their way. You will get more terrorists, more people will start hating the US and maybe, if one day you will loose, nobody will pity you.
Oops. I sound like I hate the US, but it is not so. I try to be objective, and I have never been to US. All that I know about you - I get from the same news agencies and from the life around me which here in Russia is very much trying to become like yours. So I may be wrong, but even from the comments on this page I can see that there is a certain amount of US citizens who are ready to support the government in its every effort to "stop terrorism", blindly obeying every governments word. Too good to resist - every politisians dream. If there were no Al quaeda they would have to invent one. Meanwhile - no one will pay much attention to the internal problems, and you can always get more control of you own citisens under the purpose of "terrorist hunt". That may be so, that may not be so, but many of you just ignore that possibility which makes it no less possible. All I say is THINK. Not believe. Watch foreign news, not only CNN. Use the Internet - there are sites even in Iraq. "Even if you are not interested in politics - politics is interested in you" - rememeber? And stop repeating officials words - you have your own head.
For the good start there are several questions to think about:

Why US? You are not the richest people - so it is not about envy. You are certainly not the weakest. It even is not about your territory and resources - in Russia we have more (not that it helped us much). Your only difference is that you get involved. You come to other countries bringing the unwanted "democrasy" and you "perfect way of life". They may be better, but you FORCE people to accept them. So is this the reason? You decide.

Why Iraq? Zimbabve is worse, in Africa there are worse dictators, more people are dying in unending war and there is no even slight attempt to look democratic. Iran is democratic, in theory at least. No matter what Bush says - they LOOK LIKE democracy. They do not kill their own citisens. Not sure about the true situation - never been there, but neigther were you, so your opinion is no better, and Bush is not independent, as I said earlier. But it is more likely the US will attack Iran, not Zimbabwe (time will tell). Guess what? There is oil in Iraq and Iran, and no oil in Africa. Does it have anything to do with the war? Or maybe it is because Iraq was opposing the US? In Turkmenistan there are no signs of democrasy - pure dictatorship (I know that for sure - my friend is from there), but nobody cares. Because the ruler of the country supports the US. Allows them to have their air bases, sells them cheap oil and so on... Maybe that is the reason for the war in Iraq? You deside.

Please consider the above text as purely personal. I am not trying to be objective, just writing down my opinion and trying to argument it. Will be very glad if you do the same.

No Al Queida in Iraq? Sorry, disproven so many times it's not worth reviewing. Of all the people who need to 'wake up and think" it is the Russian Government. Who is assisting the Chechen Rebels? Why are the US and Iraqi militaries capturing Chenchen "rebels" in Iraq? Why are Chechen "Rebel" websites hosted by Al Quieda? No evidence of WMDs? Russian Intelligence disagrees with you on that.

As for the protesters of this funeral, they are a cancer that no one in America (left or right) wants. This "religious" man is niether religious nor truly a man. He is a hatefull animal not deserving of pity.

Sorry, America has its eyes open, dispite what our/or your media says. We are fully aware of the costs of this VERY REAL War on Terror, a war you are fighting in Russia too. This enemy is not some Orwiellian invention, but one we have fought for decades. Unfortunatly, we fought it as a law-enforcement/criminal problem, and ignored the fact Al Quieda is beholden to no laws and know exactly how to get around them. This is the basis of the whole "the US abused me at GITMO". Our Congress has investigated this detention camp 20 times. We are running a camp housing illegal combatants, as defined by the Geneva Conventions, and treating them as legitimate POWs. But, as defined in Al Queida Training Manuals, they know all about our laws and how to get around them.

As for the Iraqi people not wanting us there, go to Iraq and ask a few. Don't go to the ones the media wants you to talk to, go to the real Iraqis and ask. They want us there and they want freedom. Humanity yearns to be free, not slaves.

We could have ended this in the 1990s, but as thw world was in the 1930's with the AXIS, we ignored and appeased our enemies until they became so emboldened only the sacrifice of our soldiers and resources can stop them....just as in the 1940s.

To all the liberal commenters -Just for once, I'd love to read a comment from a liberal that mourned with us about CPL French's death without a "But, ChimyMcHalliburtion blah blah blah blah blah" added on to the end of it.


May she rest in peace and God be with her family during this time.

Ignoring all the comments regarding the war my only wish in this comment is to say thank for showing you're support for our troops and for defending Cpl French and her family. The idea that someone would go so far in thier ideals and ignorant thinking and go and do that at a funeral is so dispicable. I understand not believing in the war, I do believe but some don't and that's ok but to protest at a funeral! A funerel for someone that died to protect this country so you even have the right to protest is incredibly arrogent, rude, and shortsighted. I am a military wife and if my husband happened to die during war and one of you self hating POS came and protested at his funerel let me tell you my foot would be lodged so far up you're ass!! So all in all thank Bubblehead!! To hear someone actually supporting the troops is something I for one know I need to hear. And btw if you really do support our troops then go protest in Washington DC and leave our troops out of it. You don't like the war then fine there are other ways and PLACES for you to vent you're frustrations a furnerel is not and will never be that place!!

Gesh it never fails to amaze me how stupid some people can be! To protest at a soldiers funeral is just wrong and really f***ed up in my opinion! If you have a problem with the war then take it to Washington! Thank you for taking up for CPL French and her family people who would stoop so low as to protest at a soldiers funeral have some serious mental issues in my opinion. I can't imagine as a wife of a soldier how I would handle people protesting at his funeral..but I bet it wouldn't be a good reaction!

I'm not sure what "God" Phelps worships, but is definitely isn't the Christian God, or and other God of a major religion.

Just another aside about Phelps's little group of Anti-Christs, they protested at the WTC Ground Zero after 9-11. There they stood mocking the victims, shouting/swearing at the rescue workers as they pulled bodies and living victims from the rubble, and demanding that the remaining (living) victims be left to die. They had signs mocking the victims, the FDNY and the NYPD. They SHOULD have been arrested then for “interfering with emergency personnel in the line of duty”.

This nutball also protested at Space Shuttle Columbia recovery, claiming that the astronauts had been killed to punish NASA and America for not speaking out against gays.

He also protests routinly at Rev. Billy Graham revivals, calling him a "Hell-bound false prophet". They also protest daily at a Topeka Catholic Church.

This cult also protests against anyone, or anything, they deem an “enemy”. Niether political or religious alignment nor logic have any bearing on what Phelps sees as an "enemy". These people are truly insane/fanatical and cannot be reasoned with. They are akin to the Wabbarahists of fanatical Islam who pervert anything to support their conclusions and narrow, hatefull views.

They also use massive lawsuites to fund their trips and protests and are almost as well funded as many far left socialist groups in that reguard. A majority of Phleps’ cult are laywers or have law backgrounds. They know how to push to within a hair’s breath of breaking the law and how to goad distraught and emotional family members into assaulting them. The restraint shown by the US Military Honor Guard, family of the fallen soldier, and community made it so Phelps couldn’t profit financially from this.

In addition, this little protest at a soldier’s funeral is bringing a lot of atention to this group. Attention they will not want. The group’s website indicates they will protest soldiers’ funerals in several states, including ones with large military bases and those with strong support for the War on Terror. I think this group will end up being followed with a microscope with law enforcement and counter-cult groups looking for anything they can to disrupt Phelps’ little cult operations.

Congradulations Phelps, you little piece of unholy garbage, you have just opened many eyes onto you group of hatemongers. Enjoy the harsh light of their scrutiny.

More from Phelps' little cult:

"Thank God for IEDs killing American soldiers in strange lands every day.

WBC rejoices every time the Lord God in His vengeance kills or maims an American soldier with an Improvised Explosive Device (IED). "The righteous shall rejoice when he seeth the vengeance: he shall wash his feet in the blood of the wicked" (Ps. 58:10).

This nation bombed and raided the Westboro Baptist Church, and now the Holy God that Inhabits Eternity is repaying those heinous acts with His retaliatory wrath; "Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord" (Rom. 12:19).

To most effectively cause America to know her abominations (Ez. 16:2), WBC will picket the funerals of these Godless, fag army American soldiers when their pieces return home. WBC will also picket their landing spot, in Dover, Delaware early and often.

Face it, America! You have become a fag-filled nation of flag worshipers and necromancers. Your only terrorist is the Lord your God! He fights against you personally. "And I myself will fight against you with an outstretched hand and with a strong arm, even in anger, and in fury, and in great wrath" (Jer. 21:5). "


Guess what, I'm a soldier. I don't sopport homosexuality, don't support 'special rights' or any of that. I am a very conservative person. I believe a person should be judged by his/her character and actions and not their skin or deeds of their ancestors. I believe in minimal government. I believe in God. I do not believe a thing this idiot Phelps says. Nothing in the Bible supports what he says. Also, in the above, did he not just declare war on the USA? Just wondering..

And if the above quote from his own website isn't enought, here's another:

"Hell has room for them ALL!!!
Almost four years ago, God Almight struck this nation a direct, wrathful blow that you have ignored!! There is a gigantic hole where once stood the symbol of America's financial might, and all the preachers in this country can do is wring their hands and lie about how much God loves everyone.

God destroyed the WTC to punish America! Deal with it!

Bloody butcher Bush thinks he can distract from these facts by taking over Babylon with his fag army. As a result of his foolishness, body bags are coming home by the truckload.

Number of Americans who have entered hell as result of this bloody takeover of Babylon:

1,723"

Statistically our soldiers are safer in Iraq than they are driving on most highways over the weekend. Our losses are less per any measure of time than they have been in any war previous. The terrorist losses are staggering and they are losing more every day. To say that my friends, family, and bretheren (all US soldiers) are burning in Hell because of a few laws he doesn't like is more than I think I can take.

That said, this little hate monger, no different in my eyes from the Far Left he supposidly hates, the NAZI/KKK crowd, or the terrorists he sides with (Phelps wrote a letter of support to Saddam), is not worthy of anything except contempt from all rational people.

Pathetic only begins to describe the protesters at this hero's burial. I have, while serving our nation, and later as chaplain of our VFW post, spoken these words to grieving families:"In the name of the President of the United States, and on behalf of a grateful nation, please accept this flag. It is a symbol of our country and your loved one's (always mentioned by name)faithful service. God save the Republic" Those words have always been followed by a reverent and deliberate salute to the colors and the family members. Like many men before me, and many after, the proudest time I spent in uniform was as a member of the honor guard. Cpl French deserved better. I apologize to no one for the following comment. Its a pity that the full democratic process did not deploy itself in this instance. The nutballs most certainly have a right to protest in the most mean spirited way they choose. Those who hold a higher moral ground should have been given an opportunity to personally counsel them as to the error of their ways. Do I espouse violence as a response to disrespect for warriors killed in battle? I do. Don't try that shit in my back yard.

Hey MSgt,
To me Phelp's above quote were a declaration of war.

Don't know about you, but my oath indicated "all enemies foriegn and domestic".

Including ANSWER, Move-ON, WWP, "Neo" NAZIs, and the KKK, I classify this piece of filth and his cult of wackos as a "domestic Threat"

The worst part is I go on these honor guard missions and I don't think I have the restraint needed to hold back from killing these people.

Sorry, I'm human. And when confronted by evil, I no longer care about restraint.

The protestors have a right to protest. Doing so against the backdrop of a family's grief indicates sociopathic behavior. A normal human being could empathize with the family, respect their time of grief, and protest elsewhere or at another time. I cannot but see a fundamental hypocrisy.

That the grieving family carried on, and even staunched a counter demonstration shows great compassion and dignity under the most difficult of circumstances. What better way to honor this young woman than to provide this fine example of her origins.

Whether one agrees with the war or not, there is no reason not to respect those grieving the fallen. I call it civility.

What the hell would YOU know about it? Are you a soldier? Have you been to Iraq? Have you ever spoken to a civilian living in Iraq? One who spent most of their lives under Saddam's rule, and for the first time, are experiencing some freedom?

NO, YOU HAVEN'T.

Guess what? I HAVE. I am a 19-year-old OIF III Veteran in the U.S. Army, and proud of it. Why? Because I actually see what goes on through my own eyes, not through a camera! Until you can claim the same, you don't have the right to tell me anything about this war. You don't know.

I have never killed a child. I am not barbaric. The only barbaric deeds I've seen here are the ones commited by Iraqis! I've gone to the memorial services of my friends, I've sat up worrying about friends while they were on missions, I've repaired weapons blown to shit from IEDs. Sounds like we're really fighting innocent civilians, doesn't it? I suppose those same "innocent" civilians are the ones that like to shoot rockets and mortars onto my base.

It all comes down to you don't know shit about this war until you've served in it. Walk a day in Iraq, in our shoes, and then tell me we're all "barbaric murderers".

As for Phelps and his family, they sicken me. I pray to God I never meet them face-to-face, because I don't have some of the restraint I admire so much in a lot of you.

And my prayers are with the family, may CPL Carrie French rest in peace.

God bless our soldiers. They are the ones tha tstand on the front line, right or wrong, they didn't decide to go to war. Don't hate our troops. They are out there risking their lives so that the rest of us can sleep in peace at night. Our troops handle the dirty work in all our lives so that we don't go at it alone. Any major national disaster, they are there; many charity events and causes, they are there; front lines protecting those that cannot protect themselves, they are there. Most of you sit here and comment on our soldiers nad yet have never left the safety and comfort of your own bubble and had to take a real stand on anything. There are many truths to life (one being politicians will falter) I do believe that we must finish what we started, like it or not, if we leave Iraq too soon, the state will not support itself and we will have an even bigger problem on our hands. Seriously people, its not our troops you should hate, go after the politicians. Don't target those that make the ultimate sacrifice, that give up very promising careers and tens of thousands of dollars to go and trully stand up for something they believe in. It is more than I can say for most of you.

I got this from a friend, use it as you see fit. Excuse my profanity, but this Bitch needs to die. You don't need to make a scene at a funeral. There are better times and more appropriate measures to do then to disrespect the dead and inject pain adn agony into their grieving families lives. I didn't know French, I am from no where near Idaho. But I'll be damned if I wouldn't have stood there and placed my hand over my heart and thanked the lord as they layed a true hero into the ground.

It is said and I quote, "We must always fear evil men. But there is another kind of evil that we must fear the most, and that is the indifference of good men." Our soldiers are our good men. They care enough about all of you to pledge their lives if need be to protect you and keep you out of harms way. Do you know the only reason why we have never been invaded? If cyou couldn't figgure it out, it is our soldiers. Until 9/11, the continental US has never been attacked. Why? Our soldiers. If they did not care, we would not be the country we are today. In fact I fear we wouldn't be a country at all.

HOW COULD THEY HONESTLY FEEL GOOD ABOUT THEMSELVES WHEN THEY GO HOME? WHAT KIND OF VALUES ARE THEY INSTILLING IN THERE CHILDREN? IN THE END OF DAYS THE BIBLE STATES THAT THERE WILL NOT ONLY BE WARS BETWEEN THE WORLDS BUT BETWEEN EACHOTHER AS WELL.

Regardless of whether or not you believe this war was "poorly executed" or whatever else you have to say about it, if we pull out it would be a more disasterous move than going in there in the first place. Oh, and also, I dare you to go to Iraq and tell those soldiers that are working their asses off, that don't have time to brush their fucking teeth on a regular basis, that only get the see their spouses through letters and memories, that are so sick of seeing sand everyday...you go tell them that what they are doing is "not well planned or executed."

I can't believe how soul-less a person would have to be to protest at a soldier's funeral.

A person died in service of their country, period. The funeral is a time to remember that person and recognise their service and the ultimate sacrifice they made, as their family and friends say good bye and grieve.

Using it for anything else is disgusting. Acting like the 'phelp's clan' is about as low as I have ever seen.

This has to be one of the longest comment strings I've ever seen (over 6 years).

I find it interesting that it's still relevant and the Phelps gang is still around. What a statement about our society that we allow them to go about their lives in relative safety, with the assurance of protection to continue pissing people off.

There is nothing Christian about their words or actions. I do, however, differ with a previous statement that said they were as close to Christians and the Islamic-Extremists are to Muslims. My disagreement stems from the outspoken way in which Christians condemn the words and deeds of Mr. Phelps in every way possible, including doing what they can to complicate his efforts. I don't see similar efforts for "normal Muslims" - That's all I want from them. Condemn idiots that you don't agree with at every opportunity - especially when they claim to represent you and are killing people. At least Mr. Phelps is just an easily-ignored idiot.

The storms are raging on the rolling sea
and on the highway of regret.
Though winds of change are throwing wild and free,
you ain't seen nothing like me yet.
I could make you happy, make your dreams come true.
Nothing that I wouldn't do.
Go to the ends of the Earth for you,
to make you feel my love
to make you feel my love

Right under my feet there's air made of bricks
Pulls me down turns me weak for you
I find myself repeating like a broken tune
And I'm forever excusing your intentions
That I give in to my pretendings
Which forgive you each time
Without me knowing
They melt my heart to stone

Are ringing through my opened ears
Inciting and inviting me.
Limitless undying love, which
Shines around me like a million suns,
It calls me on and on across the universe

I've been walking in the same way as I did
Missing out the cracks in the pavement
And tutting my heel and strutting my feet
"Is there anything I can do for you dear?
Is there anyone I can call?"
"No and thank you, please Madam.
I ain't lost, just wandering"

What if you were really made for me?
What if we was 'sposed to be together?
Would that not mean anything?
What if that was 'sposed to be my house that you go home to every day?
How can you be sure that things are better?
If you can't be sure your heart is still here with me
Still wanting me
