Hegseth defends returning Confederate monument to Arlington National Cemetery

[dudmuck]

EXcept, for a 150 years, America did so without problem.


How ******* stupid must you be, to claim something can't be done, when your nation did it, during most of your life?


Question: What is 1+0 ?

Use a calculator if you want. I want to see just how ******* retarded you are.

the part of Lincoln seems to love confederates.

Hegseth put up a Robert E Lee portrait with a slave in it.

 

[Nostra]

For 150 years we told them to STFU

You dud? Sounds racist.

Lincoln wanted to keep the country together and heal it afterwards.


Not get off on sadistically oppressing his former enemies.


That type of behavior is what we see from the other side.


What part of this is beyond your ability to understand, libtard?

Hegseth defends returning Confederate monument removed by ‘woke lemmings’ to Arlington National Cemetery

The Reconciliation Monument was removed from Arlington National Cemetery in 2023.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth backed up his decision to return a Confederate monument to Arlington National Cemetery removed by “the woke lemmings” who have erased Confederate symbols from American culture.

The Reconciliation Monument, a memorial to the Confederacy, was removed from Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia in 2023.

Hegseth explained his decision to bring back the monument to Arlington during a Fox News appearance Thursday afternoon.

“Because we recognize our history, we don’t erase it. We don’t follow the woke lemmings off the cliff that want to tear down statues,” the secretary said.

Good. That's American history. Sadly the dems made it into a political/ethnic issue.

Whether you agree or disagree with the government in charge, the soldiers fought for their states.

Union or confederate they should be honored. And hopefully remembered so similar events won’t repeat themselves.

Likely mentioned already, but; 'The Confederate Epitaph at Arlington National Cemetery' ;

"Not for fame or reward, nor for place or rank, not lured by ambition nor goaded by necessity, but in simple obedience to Duty as they understood it, these men suffered all, sacrificed all, ... and died. "

Concepts and perspectives foreign to those internal enemies of our Nation in the Present whole fail to grasp the context or meaning that History presents.The vast majority of those troops who fought for the Confederacy did not own slaves nor fought for that concept. They fought for their State, at a time in this nation when State still mattered more than National.

This is the fault of the sloppy and now near non-existent teaching of History common to our Education System. Learning and understanding how to "walk in the shoes of others" is no longer taught nor encouraged.

Such is why there can be no common ground between the polarized factions now extent in our nation~culture, no avenue to compromise.

Putting monuments to the enemies of the nation in the national cemetery.

What's next? Statues of hitler?

Amusing and sad coming from an internal enemy of the USA who supports the destruction of our nation and supplanting it with a tyranny of "socialism".

Poor Hegseth.

Like his slaver traitor heroes, he will go down in history as a white supremacist. But unlike his slaver traitor heroes, he will go down with no accomplishments whatsoever.

They did not fight for our country. They were traitors. Wake up already ! The statue belongs in a museum or on grounds dedicated to a history of the Confederacy . That would be appropriate. Arlington is for the US Military veterans.

That was extended to people , not the Confederacy. There's a big difference.

Hegseth is going crazy. Must be guilty about something ! War crimes anyone ?

Don't be stupider than you have to be kid. It's embarrassing to the rest of the forum.

Doesn’t say much for Congress

Congress happens on both sides of the aisle.

Should have never been removed. Even a blind squirrel finds an acorn now and then.

It should have been crushed and pissed on.

They fought for a nation where 40 percent of the population was in bondage
Their economy was based on free labor

No, those troops didn’t own slaves
But when they returned home from the war, they fought to ensure those former slaves were not welcome in southern society

Nice try Skippy

But that “peculiar institution” in the south predated the formation of the Democratic Party by 200 years
