The Koch brothers are the Real Terrorists

About a year ago the state of Wisconsin was in an uproar when Governor Scott Walker was pushing an anti-union bill down the throats of Wisconsin workers, teachers, and public servants. A sting operation by a New York reporter, Ian Murphy, revealed that Walker and David Koch (multibillionaire) had some backroom deals that show the class divide between the richest one percent of Americans and those who struggle to pay their bills, or middle class. It seems like the Koch brothers are at it again; only recently were they found to be aiding and abetting the enemy by selling petrochemical materials to the Iranian government. That's right, our very own American businessmen are selling materials to a country who not only do we have an embargo with, they are state sponsors of terror.

The Koch brothers are the epitome of what is wrong with our business laws and tax codes for multinational companies. These companies often run outside of American laws under subsidiary companies and are entirely against workers rights to strike or deal with management. Not only do these companies break most American labor laws, but they sell materials to a known state terrorist organization. The Koch brothers would sell crack cocaine to an 80 year old if they could make a dime off it. In all seriousness, after hearing the news that Koch-Glitsch subsidiary sold materials to Iran, I was outraged. During World War II this would be considered treasonous to send materials to the Japanese. In Vietnam, vets despised Hanoi Jane Fonda for doing a photo shoot with the enemy. Now, we find out that American businessmen are finding loopholes in our legal system to sell materials to a country who has been actively attacking troops in Iraq.

Join me in denouncing the Koch industries label by boycotting the purchase of Brawny tissue, Quilted Northern, Angel Soft, Vanity Fair, and Dixie products. Maybe we can send these dip-shits a call that when you aid and abed the enemy, you pay for it in America.

God bless everyone, even the Koch brothers.
