While watching the latest Planet of the Apes film in the Reel cinema in Port Talbot I noticed two commercials for the armed forces. I wondered about the recruitment campaign in areas of high unemployment and inequality .
Throughout history the military have recruited the poor, the working class and the disadvantaged to slay those from another society who share their economic and cultural similarity . From Trafalgar to the Taliban it's always been this way...and now the morning litary wonder why Kevin Maxwell joins the special services and builds pipe bombs and builds weapon stashes.
Why was Kieran Maxwell a supporter of the continuing IRA .?.he was beaten and left for dead by a loyalist mob as an adolescent...suffering from PTSD he was raised in hate and stuck back. An eye for an eye and the whole world is made blind....it's obvious....the military don't understand what happened..but many do....this is not a justification it's an explanation...bloody obvious... Now I know that someone from the military is going to moan at me , shout at me, say that I don't know what I am talking about...BUT I simply ask the question ...if selection and recruitment is so rigourous why was it not picked up?
100 years ago the battle of Passchendaele began... Five hundred
thousand of the working class on both the Allied and the Axis working
class slaughtered one another. A generation lost its father's, brothers,
lovers and sons. And you ask me why? The Welsh Poet Hedd Wyn died in
the battle....As Siegfried Sassoon comments it was Hell and innocents
abused by violence, cursed with PTSD have a higher chance if
transformation in Demons.. it's statistically provable, demonstrable and
clear...it's bloody obvious.....and Prince Charles a direct descendant
of the Royal Game of Thrones that killed millions is the giver of the
speech ....and Theresa May the seller of arms to the Middle East claims
to honour the dead...pass the sick bag. . It's bloody obvious..
Radio 4 today...I heard someone talking about mental health. They blamed Descartes. The mind body split enables us falsely to distinguish mental health from physical health. Thus is why many find it unacceptable to acknowledge mental health issues wirh themselves and others. There is a functionality that shows them to be a unity. A body without a mind is a corpse...in other cultures that do not distinguish mind from body there is no problem with labels such as psychiatric disorders. And no Doctors like the one in my clients PIP appeal yesterday asking theoretical questions about physical possibilities for my severely psychotic client. Depression, anxiety all are experienced physically and pain affects the mind. Yep it was Descartes fault in many Asian cultures mind and body us not split and instead we have a unity of both mind and body and I suppose an observing aspect from the collective..

And yes Descartes I blame you for how we treat animals. You said their
cries of pain were like noise made by machines. There is no logical
connection between "I think" and "I am* and certainly no
therefore....yep Descartes it was your fault...
thank you share this post.
