Can an Anarchist experience Schadenfreude? HELL YEAH!

"In conclusion, I still maintain that George Bush and his subordinates knowingly lied us into war. Let me offer one last bit of armchair logic: If Bush really thought Saddam (a) had stockpiles of WMD and (b) was too crazy to respond rationally to threats of reprisal, then why would Bush send in American troops? Can you imagine the public outcry if, say, 850 US troops were killed in a single day by chemical weapons? Wouldn’t it make a lot more sense to invade Iraq if the president knew Saddam would love to acquire (but didn’t quite yet have) those nasty weapons?"Who's lying about Iraq?" by Bob Murphy

Just who is lying about Iraq? Apparently the soldiers are starting to figure out and one has even vented his frustrations on the Warmongering supporters of the President.

On a story such as the one I am about to discuss I feel torn.

On the one hand, my advocacy as an Anarchist in the inviolability of private property I find it incredibly hard (although tempting) to applaud the actions of the Officer in this story.

I must confess though to feeling a certain level of guilty pleasure upon hearing what this man did.

Below is an excerpt from the story:

"DENVER - The Air Force Reserve plans to discharge a lieutenant colonel accused of defacing cars that had pro-Bush bumper stickers, the military said Friday. Lt. Col. Alexis Fecteau, a pilot with 500 combat hours in the first Persian Gulf war and the Balkans, is charged with criminal mischief for allegedly using paint stripper to write a profanity about Bush in 18-inch-high letters on cars at Denver International Airport.
The cars had bumper stickers supporting President Bush and conservative talk-show host Rush Limbaugh."

I cannot wait to hear the Bushitas spin on this story!

"We believe it was one of those weak kneed limp wristed cut and run Liberals."

Right......With 500 combat hours in the First Persian Gulf war and the Balkans.

Which brings me to my opening question in the title of this piece.

Can an Anarchist experience Schadenfreude? HELL YEAH!

Oh well, if I am going to go to hell I might as well enjoy the ride!
