Cindy Sheehan
Cindy Sheehan is an American anti-war activist whose son, Specialist Casey Sheehan, was killed during his service in the Iraq War by the Mehdi Army on April 4, 2004. She attracted national and international media attention in August 2005 for her extended anti-war protest at a makeshift camp outside President George W. Bush's Texas ranch — a stand which drew both passionate support and angry criticism.

    Report: "Russian soldiers pulling babies from incubators and throwing them on the floor"
    Yeah right, I doubt this is happening. NEVER trust the propaganda from the national or globalist news outlets.

      "pulling babies from incubators"
      Really? Again?
      That was the neocon fake news about Iraqi troops in Kuwait 32 years ago and it was done by
      the Kuwaiti ambassador's daughter, run by the American public relations firm Hill & Knowlton f
      or the Kuwaiti government..
      "al-Sabah's testimony has come to be regarded as a classic example of modern atrocity propaganda"

        With almost everything stated or shown on the Fake news proven to be false about the Russian military action. How should those awake to this poopaganda think?
        I read a comment from someone who said if you believe it is difficult going a week without sex , try going a week without rationality.

    I remember her and at the time I felt she was missing the boat - forgiven because of her mourning her loss. The left was really playing her up. This article, however, to me shows her distrust in a whole new light I can wrap my brain around. From the article: "No one has to gaze across the miles to Russia to look for the reason the world is on the brink of another World War—they just have to look at the criminals in WashedUp, DeCeit and their stenographers in the legacy media." nails it in the nutshell.

    Also it would pay the reader to click on the link in the article "Read about the real Zelenskyy here".

    Am I a Putin apologist? Hell no! But, by golly, there's a lot more going on here than the "stenographers in the legacy media" will let us know.

      The people have been played by both sides for decades. We now know who the enemy truly is.It is the SLGPC , they seem to own most in both parties the press and our ignorant agencies .
      This woman has learned that it wasn’t just Bush but the libs too , that gleefully slaughter human beings.

      If only they were stenographers! You let these media people take dictation on something what they write will not at all resemble what was said!

        It depends on who says what. From Neo Communists (Democrats), they are stenographers; from Free America they ask the Neo Communists to translate or comment and then act as stenographers.

    I was against every war (or police action or action of saving democracy ) since the 80's.
    (Prior to that I hadn't enough life experience to make a rational decision - like nearly every American under 35 today.)
    None of the military were necessary or advisable. All actions were caused by looting scum in DC, NY, Chicago, LA, Seattle for power and wealth.
    For every death and injury of American troops (and innocent civilians), a looter who supported the action should receive an equivalent result: death, injury, and confiscation of assets.
    I do not remember Ms. Sheehan.

    This is interesting on many levels. Not the least of which that she will now be vilified by the same people who spent the last 2 years shouting “If it saves just one life.......” and now are shouting “To WAR!!!”
    Oh well. My OFFICIAL response is to shrug and say “Meh...”

    I do remember her. I fell in with the "hate Cindy" crowd then. Without thought. So now I decided to read the article she wrote and thought, Gee, some time goes by, learn some things, feel differently about things. Don't hate her now. That was good, like a V8.

      Well yes she like many have come to realize The Bushes and the Clinton’s and Obama’s all shill for the warmongers and are the enemy of the people.
      I have to say my son died the same month and year as hers did. She happens to be one month younger than I am. Because of my understanding of the loss of a child , I admired her tenacity and determination. I think she may have aligned her self or vise a versa with some libs in the past but she really always stuck to her own mission.

        The meme showing those three warmongers hugging and smiling is great. It's good for libs because Bush is right in the middle and they love to believe he is a warmonger. But then he's flanked by Bamy and Willie, which is hard for them to swallow. Monica didn't care.

    I read the whole thing. Did she write the article? It looks like she had a lot of writing experience since her Iraq war protest. Doesn't matter. I told my kids starting at 11 years old, than anything you read in the media is almost certainly a lie. My conclusions comes from comparing what is said at one time and what ensues or is revealed decades later. It's good to have a memory, and also having the desire to read old references.

        even a broken clock (traditional) is right twice a day. No, I will not give her a moment of my attention.

          Fair enough, If you don’t read her comments it’s hard to know if she has had a change of heart. BTW I suspect you have never lost a child thankfully.

            I would never divine my child intentions, hold faux media events, or fly around the world to meet and rub elbows with communist dictators. I would take the money she was offered by the left and/or dictaors for being a mouthpiece.
            I did have an occasion to correspond with her now ex-husband back then. It's remarkable what you'd use/trade for fame.

            So has your view changed on Hanoi Jane as well? Sean Penn?

              Nope, I don’t have the detailed knowledge that you do. I suspect if we don’t allow for people to become informed and change their mind we have lost the War.
              From her essay...
              Now, over 20 years later, I am not liberal, in fact, they terrify me. Ever ones to jump on the newest cause célèbre, liberals, who I am sure, couldn’t name the president of Ukraine two weeks ago, are pledging devotion and love to the U.S. puppet Zelenskyy (displacing the now mostly forgotten Anthony Fauci) (READ ABOUT THE REAL ZELENSKYY HERE). Liberals are the ones dumping out their Russian vodka (many brands here are NOT made in Russia) and boycotting Russian dressing: A product of Vermont. The weirdest thing to me is that they don’t see how truly preposterous they are being with their double-standards. Most democrat faithful still believe the now discredited lie that Putin stole the election from the horrific Hillary Clinton and that somehow Trump is pulling his strings to this day.

                I had empathy for her initially but as she went on and on her conduct showed her to be more of an opportunist and tool (useful idiot) than a grieving or angry mom.

                Her son volunteered. He reenlisted. He was killed but not by friendly fire as she contends.

                I had a shit ton of notes from that time before I penned anything. I still have a very interesting picture that sums what she-hag was at that time, completely. And, yes I think people can change, but seldom do they, and for the right reasons.

                She spoke publicly about her child talking to her from the grave telling her what to do/say and validating her view on the war. Oddly enough she opposed his joining, he did snywau, then she used him to validate and promote her view.

                  When our son died it was the most devastating thing that ever happened to My wife and I. When I found him one of the first things that came to my mind was how will my sweetheart ever survive this. I mean you go from living a normal life to in the blink of an eye everything changes. As we struggled with the grieving and sadness in the first weeks. we would say things to each other that were helpful , like Alex who was a friendly ,kind , generous soul , befriended kids who seemed left out. In school as a third grader he asked his teacher if he could move his desk next to a student who was struggling so he could help them
                  Learn. He was a natural athlete , smart and handsome ( taking after his beautiful momma).
                  We would say to each other that now he is not confined to his body he can help many more some how. I know that is not rational or logical.
                  It also does not change the man I am today.
                  You see we were trying to keep it together for our other 2 kids, anything that helped us to continue parenting and being loving supportive spouses was fair game. After a month or so I got a call at work form her. She said she was in the kitchen at the sink and she felt a warm hand on her forehead, the hand gently pushed her into our family room to the couch. She than said she heard a voice ,that she said was Jesus. Immediately Alex and Jesus appeared in front of her. Alex was crying and told her he was so sorry and that he loved her so much. Jesus said to her he is safe and with me , thank you for loving and caring for him. AJ , that gave my wife so much strength and
                  Relief , I was very grateful she had that experience. Do I think it happened? that answer my friend, has absolutely no value to me My son made a very bad choice the day he died, he was 18 legally an adult. Clearly his Reckless decision was not adultlike. Studies have show the frontal cortex of the male brain matures in most cases at age 24 or 25. Reckless behavior , risk assessment well as little thought to long term consequences for actions are typical.
                  Take from my reply about my experience what ever judgement of me that you care to.
                  Peace.

                    Dobrien, wow. Thanks for sharing.
                    I've had a similar experience to your wife, "exactly when I needed it"... It changed me.
                    I went from a non-believer to someone who finally understood the concept of "faith".
                    I am not religious, but I am now deeply spiritual.

                    So sorry for your loss...
                    So Happy you are here!

                    Dobrien, I would never judge poorly of you. As I said elsewhere, I empathized as much as I was able for her but the longer she went the more radicalized she became. At first I thought it was her grief, but then she started traveling, staging events, and things got weirder and weirder.
                    Life has a way of shattering perceptions the hard way to teach people about itself and show us most time that we really have no clue. I hope I never have to experience what either of you has.

                      Same AJ, and thanks for your thoughtful comments. I am not trying to be a apologist for ms Sheehan. I did remember her camping out in Crawford and often thought why didn’t Bush meet with her at the least. Anyway, I have not shared that personal story of my wife’s experience with anyone before. I guess I thought it pertinent to the discussion . Anyways , far more important things to be concerned about that we both wholeheartedly agree with. Like ending Human trafficking and taking back our overthrown Govt.
                      Peace!

    I think we need to stop Russia from expanding, but not by sending Americans over there to get killed. Our foreign policy should be in our "national self-
    interest", as i believe Ayn Rand said. But I think we should send weapons to the Ukrainians. (I do not have a working TV at present, and did not see Cindy Sheehan's broadcast; I know next to nothing about her.)

      What broadcast are you writing about?
      Tap on the source url and it will open tothe essay.

      Please explain in detail why we should install a puppet regime in Ukraine and fund Bioweapon labs in Ukraine and then send weapons so the Human shields (Ukrainians) that we used for our $200 million funding of Theatening WMD’s can be killed?
      Russia would have crushed Ukraine weeks ago if they did not care about the civilians. The weapons you want to send should be turned on the traitors in this country instead.
      There are a dozen posts at least in the last few weeks where you can get up to speed if you wish
      Seems you need to learn about the Color Revolution in 2014 in Ukraine and also the Minsk Protocol for starters. Ukraine is so important to the cons in congress that the impeached Trump for asking Zelenskyy to look into corruption as required of the chief executive. all because it is a $ laundering Mecca.

    Yes, I also recall that she lost custody of her son, and only started caring about him when she was able to use his coffin as her liberal soap box.

    I sympathize with anyone who has lost a loved one, due to war, but I have no such sympathy to those who shame such sacrifices to further a selfish cause.

    Semper Fi!

      Of course she has a history and thanks for sharing.
      The post was about her comments regarding the Ukraine fiasco or the destruction of the corrupt politicians money laundering machine that Ukraine is.
