U.S. Military Diplomacy –   From Wounded Knee to Afghanistan

By: Larry Kerschner
1890     Wounded Knee,  South Dakota    
                     Lakota massacred by U.S. Army



A blue-coated motorcycle gang
armed with rifles and pistols
rolled into this peaceful
residential neighborhood at dawn today.
Chankpe Opi Wakpala community members 
were herded
together and shot down.
Unarmed men, women and children were
pulled from their homes.
Commenting on reports that 
those trying to flee were run down and
shot in the back,
one biker is quoted as saying
It was great sport
like shooting fish in a barrel.

Reports of the number killed
range from 150 to 370.



1890     Buenos Aires, Argentina- U.S. troops 
             intervene to protect U.S. business interests
1891     U.S. troops battle with nationalists in Chile


walking backward
my hidden face
does not go before me
I cannot see
the dogs of war
I hear
salt
blood and tears
dripping down
I hear
children become gravediggers
howling
boy soldiers flung into the dark
I hear 
the knife
tearing cartilage between
the ribs

I hear two lovers
one is walking backward



1891        U.S. Navy in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil to 
                  protect American commercial interests
1892        U.S. Army kills 12 railroad workers 
                                                    on strike in Chicago
1893        U.S. Marines help overthrow the 
                                                   Kingdom of Hawaii
1894        U.S. Army occupies Bluefield region 
                                                             in Nicaragua
1894-95   U.S. Marines land in China during 
                                                 Sino-Japanese War
1894-96   U.S. Marines present in Seoul, Korea
1895        U.S. Navy and Marines land in the 
                    Colombian province which is now Panama
1896        U.S. Marines show the colors in Corinto, 
                                  Nicaragua during political unrest
1897        U.S. military forcefully suppresses a silver
                                                    miner's strike in Idaho


driving I remember to note
sites which would be good for an ambush
walking I watch the ground for 
dirt which may have been disturbed
in the laying of mines
nearly forty years later
I still expect the bullet
to hit that spot 
just below my left scapula
that always itches
like a target

nearly forty years later
I remember when we were boy warriors
thrown together far from home

(gun smoke thick as fog
hot brass litter
the lamb-like small of napalm
burnt indigenous personnel 
pile of bodies
slowly moving limbs in rigor
greenthick vietnamese jungle vines
sticky red clay mud in monsoon reason)

if he wasn't part of that
piece of me that couldn't come home
maybe I could 
remember my friend's face
nearly forty years later



1898-01   U.S. Navy and Army seize Phillipines from 
                                          Spain killing 600,000 Filipinos
1898        U.S. Navy and Army seize Cuba from Spain, 
                               we still have base at Guantanamo Bay
1898        U.S. Navy and Army seize Puerto Rico from 
                                          Spain, our occupation continues
1898        U.S. Navy and Army seize Guam from Spain, 
                                            we still have military bases there
1898        U.S. Marines land at San Juan del Sur, Nicaragua
1899        U.S. Army battle Chippewa tribe at 
                                                         Leech Lake, Minnesota

finally in each war there are no heroes only wasted victims
conscientiously objecting to another stupid useless death
(arresting warm blood torn from leaking limbs
lung rasped pink bubbles froth their breath)
how many more times is hell to be let loose
cursing youngsters we say we love best
children sacrificed who may finally see
our lies as a clear patriotic ruse
dulce et decorum est
pro patria
mori

a talking head warmachine propagandist
on NPR yesterday asked
who is winning the war
in that tone that assumes a winner

I don't know who might be winning
but I sure as hell know
who is losing

what if they gave a war and nobody came

fat and flatulent empire sucking
blood sucking oil sucking
life
spitting out the thin bones
of collateral damage
without even savoring the taste of the dead

the dark lord masterfully marches in place
behind a curtain in his white palace
ordering the imperial storm troopers to attention
with no comprehension
his nose pressed tight into this corner of history
blind with no peripheral or any other vision

what if they gave a war and nobody came

Gandhiji assures us that light is persistent
even in the darkness
Dr. king had a dream 
for his children and yours and mine
all God's children
love will bubble up between us
in our ordinary lives
when we see each other
as we are without power
or prejudice

hope is in justice
justice is in hope

what if they gave a war and nobody came

                                                        Corinto, Nicaragua
1911-41   30 years of continuous occupation of 
                                  parts of China by U.S. Navy and Army



the voice of the official prophet
speaks the words that must be seen
a reluctant vision
in which suffering has a reason
a positive tale
of the heavy-fruited tree of grief
that can be viewed from either side of the fence
in this story a willing heart
may be the cure for life
a dance where the flesh machine 
steps in and out of the grave in grand style
to the sound of an ancient military tune



1912        U.S. Army goes to Havana, Cuba to protect
                                                      U.S. business interests

after we are the ones to survive
after the chill
after the heat
after we have killed but
before we have thoughts of being loved
we sing a manly song
martial and stirring
not low and blue we sing
when and because
we are distanced from the front
a reminder to remember
to forget what we want forgotten
we sing our loud song of silence
we sing again
and again 
until it is done
until it is gone

1922        U.S. Army fought against nationalists

a black granite wall to rest against
each name an act calling for re-write

58,195 times rendered unto Caesar
58,195 rendered like fat on a hot stove

committed to me to ensure the adequate protection

nights he still comes to me
eyes clear
black and white
unlike his body
yellow and red

this spectre
of a rising tide of godless communism
turning
amidst the tangled pile
of  bodies

the 300 piastres
and the red-starred belt
I took from his body

cardinals and bishops call it a just war 
just because the president said so
just because they hurt us
just because we can
just because not enough of us said no
just because the snow falls and the shadows grow longer each day
just because we see it on CNN
just because after the bombs fall there is no one left to hear
just because

Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every

we move out of the tree line
spread out surround the huts
the village headman says
two wounded men died
and were buried
several days before

a green black shimmer
rises (after three days;
                          the sun)
the skin
taut with gangrenous gas
bursts
with the weight of a landing fly
spewing
pus to dust

we dig
small men's bones
in a small hole
a soup of khaki straps and steel buckles
stirred and sifted
for intelligence


1967        U.S. Army battles U.S. citizens in Detroit killing 43

a bullet manages to exist

slowed to sixteen frames per second

crimson and grey

dead is still dead
despite any noise of martial music and honor
the dead don't awaken

following orders
he knew no
Korea no

his was an Eisenhower 
time of piece

now his Auschwitz eyes in sunken sockets
this atomic vision

sallow grey

death fetid breath
stomach gone to gastric cancer
100 milligrams of morphine each hour

dying
he spoke briefly

We have never interfered in the internal government of a country

kind.                                       Pres. Ronald Reagan, 09-28-1982
1982        U.S. Marines expel the PLO from Lebanon
                                       while the U.S. Navy bombs Syria


this militaristic corporate statist
religion alive in our midst
barely hides the bronze face of Moloch
Canaanite sun god risen again amongst us
this god whose face is ours
whose name is consumption
whose tongue is greed
demands the sacrifice of our children
in blood and madness
name them warriors these boy soldiers
and our daughters now
to kill or be killed
a death hunger never satisfied

dance with the flute and cymbal
sing the patriotic anthems
loud martial songs
to drown the voices
and screams of the dying

1985        U.S. Navy jet forces an Egyptian commercial 
                                                          airliner to land in Sicily


These people expect their satisfaction guaranteed
Anything less comfortable is not allowed.
Different voices we Americans seldom heed.
Simple moral questions won't be said aloud.
The leaders state that which everyone is to see
But their type of truth is just another useless root
Of that once verdant tree that should mean liberty.
That now is hacked and sadly broken underfoot
While snakeoil hucksters proudly ply their ware
Selling safety and security in that old new offer.
A Potemkin vision in which everything here is fair
And if the evil die young it's their fault they suffer.

When Christ called us to be willing servants of all
Of course, He meant only those on this side of the wall.

1990-91   First Gulf War against Iraq

the war was black and white 
at first but then
in living color red and yellow and khaki green 
brought into the living room but what was always missing
was the smell of war
my war smelled
of dying vegetation eau de agent orange
burnt gunpowder and burnt people
dark blood sweet and warm
piss  shit  sweat
testosterone
the same smell is found in what is left of a pizza shop
in Jerusalem
now the smell of war is in Jenin and Ramallah 
piss and shit and blood
mixes with the frustrated cries 
of the people
Helen Caldicott holds up
a picture of a baby with his head blown off
the smell of his head seeps up through the
concrete rubble after the tanks roll on
the same smell of piss and shit and blood
rose in the hot desert
some days after soldiers were buried
alive
the same smell at Waco when the embers died and 
the smoke cleared
the same smell of
more piss and shit and blood
was found by firefighters 
and police digging below the twin tower's space
the same smell more piss more shit
more blood
was found near Kabul raised with the dust
by bombs from 40,000 feet
next we'll find that same smell in some new axis of evil where
the smell of oil added to the smell of dead children
added to the putrescent odor of piss and shit and blood
of war and death
should gag us all 

however as Erasmus said five hundred years ago
war is sweet
to those who know it not



1991-2001   U.S. bombs Iraq hundreds of times killing
                               many civilians maintaining the no-fly zone
1991            U.S. Army and Marines deployed in Los Angeles 
                                                          during anti-police uprising
1992-94       U.S. Army and Navy bombing and raid 
                                                    during U.S. led U.N. occupation
1993-95       U.S. jets bomb Serbs in Bosnia


I will teach you how
to perform a war
a clean operation
to remove that dangerous tissue
which can no longer be controlled
we first name it cancer
we curse it for an inhuman bastard
nothing legitimate to be found
the pathologic question
must be asked and answered
weighing whether a pound of flesh will be enough
shared definitions in hand
we sharpen our knives
sanitary
chrome and steel
bright lights
remove any shadow
of doubts
patriotic anesthesia dulls the senses
common and other
to the loud cutting
ripping and
bleeding to come
once hidden viscera bloody red
broken bone white
and hypoxic blue tissue
stare out at us
unexpected collateral damage
can be dressed
with sterile white gauze
although the bloated smell 
sometimes remains

afterwards
we will remove our gloves and 
wash our hands

1994-96   U.S. Army and Navy blockade the nation of Haiti
1995        U.S. jets bomb Serb airfields in Croatia
1996-97   U.S. Marines at Rwandan Hutu refugee camps 
                                                                                         in Zaire
1997        U.S. troops evacuate foreigners from Liberia
1998        U.S. troops evacuate foreigners from Albania
1998        U.S. missiles attack a pharmaceutical plant in Sudan
1999        U.S. missiles attack a former CIA training camp 
                                                                                  in Afghanistan


                     



I think that the targeting of innocent civilians is the worst thing
about modern conflicts today.  And to the extent which more and more
people seem to believe it is legitimate to target innocent civilians to reach
their larger political goals, I think that's something to be resisted at every turn. 
                                                                                      Pres. Bill Clinton, 03-21-2000
2001        U.S forces attack Afghanistan in response to 
                                 terrorist attack by Egyptians and Saudis

I heard it on NPR
someone said we're at war 
yeah that's terror 
here in North America 
now we get a taste of it 
we get to see the other side
now our children die
now we see there are no accidents
only consequences
we gag on the dust and rubble and fumes
in New York
in Washington D.C.
in Pennsylvania
in Kabul
in Baghdad
now we gag on the truth
