CBS News -- Suicide Epidemic among Veterans exceed 15,000 which means there's a
                        Pentagon Cover Up going on!!!
 


The wily UNCOVERING BY CBS TV NEWS of a blatent White House COVER UP -- which has Dick Cheney's fingerprints all over it, --would make a great McGuffin for a film script!. Or,  it could be a great political spy novel (then of course a mini-series, Like 1977 John Dean/Nixon story "Washington: Behind Closed Doors)  If you were in a hurry to get it on the air, it would shove aside the competition at the reader's desk at some HOUR tv drama like NCIS? Stiff is found at Annapolis. Or Law&Order. Stiff is found in NYC.

Basic plot: President and his men cook the books but the male lead character, a Reporter stumbles on this truth from a whistleblower and he is liquidated. The whistleblower immediately retreats into his job on Nixon's staff....err, BUSH's staff.Errr UPDATE. TRUMP'S STAFF.

That's the first act. Now, his fellow reporters meet at the funeral and led by his grieving fiancee, a fellow reporter, start to follow his path of this story.  She has discs which he'd left in her care. The Clues in this mystery  results in a a labrynth of corrupt government figures, many willing whistleblowers who get offed, one by one, with increasing jeopardy to the newly widowed reporter girl, until it finally blows the top off the White House in an even bigger scandal, as all repressed coverups end up doing.

Do your outline, takes 4 1/2 days to do a script once you have an outline. Then send script to every agent in town, you'll get repped so fast it'll make your head spin...See : HOLLYWOOD BOUND WEBPAGE

15,000 or more US casualties in Iraq War by 2007

By Mike Whitney

11/17/07  -- The Pentagon has been concealing the true number of
American casualties in the Iraq War. The real number exceeds 15,000 and
CBS News can prove it.

CBS's Investigative Unit wanted to do a report on the number of suicides
in the military and "submitted a Freedom of Information Act request to
the Department of Defense". After 4 months they received a document
which showed--that between 1995 and 2007--there were 2,200 suicides
among "active duty" soldiers. Baloney.

The Pentagon was covering up the real magnitude of the "suicide
epidemic". Following an exhaustive investigation of veterans' suicide
data collected from 45 states; CBS discovered that in 2005 alone "THERE
WERE AT LEAST 6,256 AMONG THOSE WHO SERVED IN THE ARMED
FORCES. THAT'S 120 EACH AND EVERY WEEK IN JUST ONE YEAR."

That is not a typo. Active and retired military personnel, mostly young
veterans between the ages of 20 to 24, are returning from combat and
killing themselves in record numbers. We can assume that "multiple-tours
of duty" in a war-zone have precipitated a mental health crisis of which
the public is entirely unaware and which the Pentagon is in total
denial.

If we add the 6,256 suicide victims from 2005 to the "official" 3,865
reported combat casualties; we get a sum of 10,121.

Even a low-ball estimate of similar 2004 and 2006 suicide figures, would
mean that the total number of US casualties from the Iraq war now exceed
15,000.

That's right; 15,000 dead US servicemen and women in a war that--as
yet--has no legal or moral justification. CBS interviewed Dr. Ira Katz,
the head of mental health at the Department of Veteran Affairs. Katz
attempted to minimize the surge in veteran suicides saying, "There is no
epidemic of suicide in the VA, but suicide is a major problem."

Maybe Katz right. Maybe there is no epidemic. Maybe it's perfectly
normal for young men and women to return from combat, sink into
inconsolable depression, and kill themselves at greater rates than they
were dying on the battlefield. Maybe it's normal for the Pentagon to
abandon them as soon as soon they return from their mission so they can
blow their brains out or hang themselves with a garden hose in their
basement. Maybe it's normal for politicians to keep funding wholesale
slaughter while they brush aside the casualties they have produced by
their callousness and lack of courage. Maybe it is normal for the
president to persist with the same, bland lies that perpetuate the
occupation and continue to kill scores of young soldiers who put
themselves in harm's-way for their country.

It's not normal; it's is a pandemic---an outbreak of despair which is
the natural corollary of living in constant fear; of seeing one's
friends being dismembered by roadside bombs or children being blasted to
bits at military checkpoints or finding battered bodies dumped on the
side of a riverbed like a bag of garbage.

The rash of suicides is the logical upshot of Bush's war. Returning
soldiers are traumatized by their experience and now they are killing
themselves in droves. Maybe we should have thought about that before we
invaded.

THERE ARE TWO WAYS FOR YOUR SONS AND DAUGHTERS TO DIE. ONE IS FIGHTING ONE OF THESE FOOLISH WARS AS THEY CANNOT GET A JOB, the OTHER is FIGHTING THE SYSTEM in OUTRIGHT WAR.

AN ACTIVISM-DOING son or daughter (well trained by web and smart films and classrooms) will be safer in the future. You save your children from a future of eating out of garbage cans and attacking police and getting jailed or shot if they are aware that they do not want OUTRIGHT CONFLICT with the SYSTEM.
GREAT POLITICAL FILM WATCHING SHOULD BE PART OF ANY EARLY-TEEN -PARENT "BONDING" WEEKEND CELEBRATION.


YOUR CHILDREN CAN EASILY LEARN TO BE PREVENTATIVE ACTIVISTS.
  Important when IMPULSIVE TRUMP is president.  Activism with a velvet glove is better than OUTRIGHT CIVIL WAR with our leaders which would RESULT in MILLIONS DEAD, FAMILIES BROKEN UP. ACTIVISM IS EMOTIONAL BLACKMAIL IN PUBLIC --TO SHAME SYSTEM into GIVING CONCESSIONS THAT YOUR GROUP WANTS NOW --WITHOUT HAVING TO RESORT TO ANY VIOLENCE. THE SMART MONEY JOINS OCCUPY NOW. FILMS and TWITTER and  FACEBOOK INSTRUCT THE NEW GENERATION. EVERYONE is a BLANK SLATE if not BROUGHT UP TO SPEED!
