And I tried hard to be proud of my service, but all I could feel was shame. Racism could no longer mask the reality of the occupation. These were people. These were human beings. I've since been plagued by guilt anytime I see an elderly man like the one who couldn't walk, who we rolled onto a stretcher and told the Iraqi police to take him away. I feel guilt anytime I see a mother with her children like the one who cried hysterically and screamed that we were worst than Saddam as we forced her from her home. I feel guilt anytime I see a young girl, like the one I grabbed by the arm and dragged into the street.

我想为自己的服役感到骄傲,也努力去尝试,但我能感受到的只有羞愧。种族主义再也不能够掩饰占领过程的真相。这是民众,这是人类。自那以后,我一见到老人就会受内疚的煎熬,就像这位不能走路的老人,我们把他抬到担架上,告诉伊拉克警方把他带走。每当我看到带着孩子的母亲都感到内疚,就像这位母亲,她歇斯底里地痛哭与尖叫。当将她强迫赶出家中时,其实我们比萨达姆还要残忍。每当我见到年轻女孩都感到内疚,就像这个被我抓起胳膊拖到大街上的女孩子。

We are told we are fighting terrorists. The real terrorist was me and the real terrorism is this occupation. 

我们被告知是在反恐。然而真正的恐怖分子却是我和这次占领(伊拉克)才是真正的恐怖主义。

Racism within the military has long been an important tool to justify the destruction and occupation of another country. It's long been used to justify the killing, subjugation and torture of another people. Racism is a vital weapon employed by this government. It is a more important weapon than a rifle a tank, a bomber or a battleship. It's more destructive than an artillery shell or a bunker buster or a Tomahawk missile. While those weapons are created and owned by this government, they are harmless without people willing to use them. 

军队里的种族主义已经成为一种长期的重要工具,被用来对破坏和占领另一个国家做辩护。它已经长期被用来辩解谋杀、镇压以及对另一群人的酷刑。种族主义是政府一个极其重要的武器,它比来福枪、坦克、轰炸机或战舰都还重要。它的威力比炮弹、掩体破坏弹、战斧飞弹还要强。尽管那些武器是政府所制造和占有的,当没人愿意使用时,它们便是无害的。

Those who send us to war do not have to pull a trigger or lob a mortar round. They do not have to fight the war. They merely have to sell the war. They need a public who is willing to send their soldiers into harm's way. They need soldiers who are willing to kill and be killed without question. 

那些把我们送入战场的人不必扣动扳机或发射迫击炮。他们并不需要亲自奔赴战场,他们仅仅靠战争就能发财。他们需要大众自愿地将战士们送入毁灭之途。他们需要战士服从命令,自愿实施杀戮或被杀。


They can spend millions on a single bomb but that bomb only becomes a weapon, when the ranks in the military are willing to follow orders to use it. They can send every last soldier anywhere on Earth, but there'll only be a war if soldiers are willing to fight. And the ruling class, the billionaires who profit from human suffering care only about expanding their wealth, controlling the world economy. 

他们能在区区一个炸弹上花费数百万美元,而部队只能在军事意志下将其应用为武器。他们能将每一个士兵送到地球的每一个角落。但如果士兵们也想要战斗就势必带来战争。那些靠人类苦难而获利无数的统治富豪阶级,只关心如何扩大财富以及操控世界经济。

Understand that their power lies only in their ability to convince us that war, oppression and exploitation is in our interest. They understand that their wealth is dependent on their ability to convince the working class to die to control the market of another country. And convincing us to kill and die is based on their ability to make us think that we are somehow superior. 

我们要意识到:统治阶级的权力来自(散播)迷惑,让我们误以为自己是热衷于战争、压迫和剥削。他们知道他们的财富依赖于对劳工阶层洗脑去牺牲自己,以及控制别国的市场。他们让我们误以为天生就高人一等,因此,他们才能糊弄我们去杀戮或牺牲。

Soldiers, sailors, marines airmen have nothing to gain from this occupation. The vast majority of people living in the US, have nothing to gain from this occupation. In fact, not only do we have nothing to gain, but we suffer more because of it. We lose limbs, endure trauma and give our lives. Our families have to watch flag-draped coffins lowered into the earth. Millions in this country without health care, jobs or access to education, must watch as this government squander over 450 million dollars a day on this occupation. Poor and working people in this country are sent to kill poor and working people in another country to make the rich richer. 

士兵、海员、海军、空军,在这次占领的过程中什么也没有获得。绝大多数生活在美国的人们,在这次占领过程中也不会获得什么。事实上,我们不仅一无所获,反而将因此遭受更多苦难。我们失去四肢,忍受外伤折磨,奉献出我们的生命。我们的家人只能眼看着被旗子覆盖的棺材深埋地下。这个国家有数以百万计的人们没有医疗保险,没有工作,更没有受教育的机会。他们只能眼睁睁地看着政府在这次占领过程中,每天挥霍4.5亿美元以上。这个国家中的穷人、工人被派去杀害另一个国家中的穷人、工人,结果只是让这个国家的有钱人更加富有。


Without racism soldiers would realise that they have more in common with the Iraqi people than they do with the billionaires who send us to war. I threw families onto the street in Iraq, only to come home and find families thrown onto the street in this country, in this tragic and unnecessary foreclosure crisis. 

抛弃种族主义,战士们将会意识到:比起那些将我们送入战场的亿万富翁们,我们与伊拉克人民有着更多的共同点。是我让伊拉克的诸多家庭流离失所,当我回到家乡时,却发现我们国家的家庭同样流离失所。这是一场悲剧,也是我们应该救赎的紧要关头。


We need to wake up and realise that our real enemies are not in some distant land, and not people whose names we don't know and cultures we don't understand. The enemy is people we know very well and people we can identify. The enemy is a system that wages war when it's profitable. The enemy is the CEO's who lay us off our jobs when it's profitable. It's the insurance companies who deny us health care when it's profitable. It's the banks who take away our homes when it's profitable. Our enemy is not 5,000 miles away. They are right here at home. If we organise and fight with our sisters and brothers, we can stop this war. We can stop this government and we can create a better world.

我们需要觉醒并认识到:我们真正的敌人并不在某些遥远的地方,不是那些我们对其一无所知的人们。敌人是我们非常熟悉并可以识别的人。敌人是一个当有利可图时便发动战争的体制。敌人是那些当有利可图时,就解雇我们的CEO们。当有利可图时,那些保险公司拒绝给予我们医疗保险。当有利可图时,那些银行拆散了我们的家庭。我们的敌人并不在5000里之外,他们就在我们的家乡。如果我们团结起来,与大家并肩战斗,我们可以阻止这场战争,我们可以阻止这个政府。我们可以创造一个更加美好的世界。

"If tyranny and oppression come to this land, it will be in the guise of fighting a foreign enemy… The loss of Liberty at home is to be charged to the provisions against danger, real or imagined, from abroad…" James Madison

“如果暴政与压迫来到这片土地上,将假借与外国敌人战争的借口,接着家乡自由的丧失便推卸给来自国外虚实难辨的威胁......”——詹姆斯·麦迪逊
