OU.S. Removal of Panels Honoring Black Soldiers At WWII Cemetery In The Netherlands draws backlash

[Wild Bill Kelsoe]

Not for being black. Commemorate them for being soldiers, of course.

But, that isn't what's happening. If they weren't black, we wouldn't even hear about them.

 

[Wild Bill Kelsoe]

Are you really this obtuse?

You posts show just how dishonest whites on the right are when it comes to the issue of race.

It isn't our fault that the black isn't able to excel the way White people are.

It's an excuse.

The panels were reportedly rotated out in early March, one month after President Donald Trump’s executive order terminated diversity, equity and inclusion, or DEI, initiatives across the federal government.

The same month the panels were removed, The Heritage Foundation, a right-wing think tank, contacted the ABMC for its supposed failure to comply with Trump’s anti-DEI initiatives.

“ABMC is fully compliant with the president’s executive order,” wrote its chief of public affairs to Heritage. “ABMC does not have a stand-alone DEI office or any DEI contracts. ABMC’s chief diversity officer has been placed on administrative leave, pending additional guidance from [the Office of Personnel Management].”

Priscilla Rayson, ABMC’s chief diversity officer, was placed on administrative leave shortly thereafter.

ABMC, however, told Dutch news outlets that one panel is “off display, though not out of rotation,” although a second panel was “retired.”

Correlation does not equal causation.

I showed you one. How many more do you need to see? Lincoln is white, His monument is a monument of a white person. It is a monument to whites.

Here is another one.

You want to deny and play childish games. I'm a grown ass man, I won't be participating in your denial of reality. These are statues of white people.

My God, you come across as utterly retarded.

Wow, now they act like it really sucks to be treated like everyone else.

It is about trying to erase the history of minorities who fought for died defending our country during war time. Removing their names and pictures does not change history. 47 is stripping history of men and women who died for our country. That is so very ******* wrong.

Guess what, a lot of folks fought and died in World War II, and you are correct in that it does absolutely nothing to erase or change history.

The panels’ removal at the Netherlands American Cemetery comes after President Donald Trump issued a series of executive orders ending diversity, equity and inclusion programs.

By The Associated Press
MARGRATEN, Netherlands — Ever since a U.S. military cemetery in the southern Netherlands removed two displays recognizing Black troops who helped to liberate Europe from the Nazis, visitors have filled the guestbook with objections.

Some time in the spring, the American Battle Monuments Commission, the U.S. government agency responsible for maintaining memorial sites outside the United States, removed the panels from the visitors center at the American Cemetery in Margraten, the final resting place for roughly 8,300 U.S. soldiers, set in rolling hills near the border with Belgium and Germany.


The move came after President Donald Trump issued a series of executive orders ending diversity, equity and inclusion programs. “Our country will be woke no longer,” Trump said in an address to Congress in March.

African-Americans, Japanese-Americans, Hispanic-Americans died defending our Democracy. Denying that history, will never, ever change that history. Just as Niece of the 442nd. Regimental Combat Team, one most decorated units in WWII.

A draft dodger and a coward removing plaques from military cemeteries.

Correct, because they aren't removing memorials for white soldiers.

Actually, it is your fault, take away your racism and discrimination and we do just fine excelling.

there's a difference. Trump was a coward that used his fathers influence and money to buy medical deferment that was based on a lie. If he would have fled to Canada which many did, it would be of no specific import.

But when you then engage in a life of crime, and privilege you don't deserve, and then use that privilege as a means to your own ends politically, and on top of that wave a flag in everybody else's face that did serve. You just crossed a line of which you get no defense or protection from.

Everybody else the evaded the draft kept their heads down and their mouths shut, at the very least because of their own sense of shame, and respect for those that went in their place.

That POS should be airdropped into the middle of an ISIS camp so we can watch them cut his head off on national television.

HOw do you know his medical deferment was false?

Do you resent that Carter pardoned those that fled to Canada?

YOu mean like Bill Clinton? HAHAHAHAHAHHA.

You libs are utterly soulless in your complete lack of shame.

That POS should be airdropped into the middle of an ISIS camp so we can watch them cut his head off on national television.

YOu want a civil war? You are talking like you want a civil war.

What is your plan when it blows up in your face?

This is a rhetorical question. I know that you are incapable of answering.

Isn't the Netherlands a different country? There is no obligation to recognize American blacks for any reason whatsoever.
