I'm just so sick of "our fallen heros" who "paid the ultimate sacrifice" for our "freedom." We hear these words frequently at sporting events. They died for Western nation's access to oil. They were cannon fodder. Most of them, then, died for nothing. Many of them were recruited by the military trolling America's poorest neighborhoods. A very, very few of them died in Afghanistan in the fight to break up al-Queda. But just so very few. Most died for oil in Iraq.
Now, we learn that the Pentagon holds phony arrival ceremonies for empty coffins. There were no honored dead arriving. The planes used in the ceremonies often couldn't even fly.
So, the U.S. recruits them to die for oil (and, not their choice, to raise opium production in Afghanistan) and desecrates their memory by holding a cheap, misleading Hollywood charade of honoring the fallen.
May God bless the United States of America.

Pentagon admits to holding phony arrival ceremonies for soldiers' remains

Pentagon admits to holding phony arrival ceremonies for soldiers' remains 12 Oct 2013 The Department of Defense unit charged with recovering servicemembers' remains abroad has been holding phony "arrival ceremonies" for seven years, with an honor guard carrying flag-draped coffins off of a cargo plane as though they held the remains returning that day from old battlefields. The Pentagon acknowledged Wednesday that no honored dead were in fact arriving, and that the planes used in the ceremonies often couldn't even fly, and were towed into position. NBC News writes that the ceremonies have been known among some of the military and civilian staff at the base as The Big Lie.
