‘Combat Veterans’ Homelessness
The British Army is the most professional battle-hardened Army in the world, due to its continued commitments of fighting in the many different conflicts since the 1960’s, when Britain’s Armed Forces became fully professional. But, to achieve such a status as a highly trained professional fighting force, it really means British combat troops have become a very proficient killing machine as basically that is what armies do to win conflicts – kill people!
The unenlightened British public do not know it but prior to combat troops battling in conflicts, they are trained and indoctrinated (brainwashed) in pure raw violence to ensure they will kill or seriously injure other human beings without any thought or hesitation.
This is accomplished by implanting ‘rage and anger’ in these combat troops subconscious minds, and also by dehumanizing the enemy as not human beings – which can dangerously apply to any human beings when back in peacetime surroundings!
Therefore, since the concept of reality differs from person to person, there are serious consequences of disregarding these ‘ticking time bombs’ of violence, more so once these combat veterans return to a peacetime society. Incredibly however, once these combat veterans leave the army and are discharged back into Civvy Street, then instead of deprogramming them from this deliberately implanted extreme violence, the Ministry of Defence (MoD) seemingly acts like Pontius Pilot, washes its hands of them and simply leaves them to cope with it the best they can!
Veterans in Prison Response to the MoD
Veterans In Prison (VIP), now know the reason why this is perpetrated by the MOD! It is to purposely guarantee that these veterans remain primed and ready as combatant reservists, mentally prepared to use extreme viole
nce in any future conflicts without any further time-consuming training in this aspect! Appallingly, this deliberately ignored implanted extreme violence in combat veterans’ minds when back in the populace, will and does have far reaching repercussions! It has been the cause of a very dark history of violent atrocities against innocent victims committed by combat veterans when back in peacetime society.
Disastrously, the front line for this extreme violence has moved from the conflicts to the family homes of combat veterans and their unsuspecting loved ones, as these individuals are now at the most risk of being exposed to this raw brutality of implanted violence on a daily basis. Incredibly, combat veterans’ families and loved ones are having to take the brunt of this extreme violence, which becomes an issue of domestic violence and the root cause of estrangement between families and loved ones – leading to combat veterans becoming homeless on the streets of Britain a country they proudly once served.
Combat veterans don’t suddenly wake up one morning and decide they want to become homeless and live in a cardboard box. This is what was referred to by Suella Braverman MP in a Sky News interview as a lifestyle choice! Whereas during my decades in H.M.Prisons, I have met and spoken with numerous combat veterans who explained to me the problems they came across on their return from conflicts which arose from their violence and led to their homelessness. Sadly, the following testimonies are true and classic examples of how this extreme violence affects unsuspecting combat veterans loved ones and their families.
Dave’s decent homelessness
One such veteran served with the 2nd Battalion Royal Regiment of Fusiliers in Northern Ireland, his name was Dave, and he was serving an 8-year prison sentence for armed robbery. Dave told me that when he was medically discharged from the Army after being shot by friendly fire, he went to live at home with his mother and stepfather.
Unfortunately, Dave could not settle down, plus he did not get on with his stepfather and eventually picked a fight with him at home. This resulted in Dave battering the crap out of his stepdad, but what shocked his mother was the viciousness of the assault, and she was so horrified by what he had done to his stepfather that she evicted him from the family home!
Collins return from war found him a life on the streets
I met another combat veteran who was a former Paratrooper. He had served in Northern Ireland and also the Falkland war with three parachute battalions. His name was Colin and was serving a 7-year prison sentence for armed robbery. The aftermath and violence of serving in those conflicts had unknowingly followed him home, resulting in him being thrown out of the family home for use of life-threatening violence against his father.
Apparently, this incident occurred one day whilst Colin was sitting at the kitchen table, when his father asked him to peel some potatoes that were in a bowl of water on the table. His father gave him a small sharp knife and told him the spuds were for the evening meal and then left home for work. However, for some unknown reason whilst Colin was sat at the kitchen table, his thoughts had somehow regressed back to his service in the Falklands War- not the potatoes! He told me “I didn’t have a clue how long I’d been sat at the table, but it must have been for a good few hours” The next thing he remembered he told me, was his father returning home from work and instead of seeing the peeled potatoes, all his father saw was Colin thoughtlessly throwing the small knife aimlessly into the unpeeled potatoes in the bowl of water like a dart. Seemingly, his father was enraged at the sight of the potatoes not being peeled, and Colin still sitting in the same position as when he had left for work earlier that day! This initiated a confrontation, and he shouted at Colin: “Why haven’t you peeled the spuds yet, you lazy b*****d!
Colin told me:
“I don’t remember what happened next. All I remember, is having my father pinned up against the kitchen wall with my arm pressed up against his chest and the point of the knife hovering only millimeters away from his throat! I don’t even remember moving from the kitchen table, never mind holding my dad up against the wall ready to shove a knife in his throat! It was an instant reaction and happened so quickly, I had done it without even thinking!”
This action also left his parents terrified of him and for their own safety, ordered him out of the family home.
Those are only two examples of how combat veterans are being forced to leave their family homes because of being indoctrinated in extreme violence but are supposedly expected to live normal productive lives back in peacetime surroundings. Tragically, there are many, many more stories relating to this problem of implanted extreme violence, as combat veterans, their families and loved ones are paying a very high price for knowingly being left to cope with this severe mindset of violence without being deconditioned. The significance of those stories is to also emphasize that no combat veteran is immune from employing this implanted extreme violence in any situation – not until they are properly deprogrammed from this raw savage violence purposed only to be used when fighting in conflicts – not back in the community or at home!
Veterans in Prison Summary and Conclusion to the tragic rise in veterans’ homelessness
On Friday, 7th June 2024, A BBC TV political programme ‘Politics Live’ debated the former Prime Minister Rishi Sunak’s massive fiasco when he deserted D-Day Veterans commemorate-ions before they had finished, so he could return to the UK to do TV interview for his ‘election campaign’ – an action that will haunt him evermore!
Accordingly, on the Politics Live panel, former Home Office Minster Chris Philip MP attempted to defend the PM’s corner by pitifully covering for him in a way that only politicians know – by endeavoring to mislead everyone into believing ‘how this government has done more than anyone else for veterans!’ However, not to be outdone, Labour’s Shadow Business Secretary Sarah Jones MP, hit back by pointing out the fact – ‘that under this Government, veterans’ homelessness had risen by fourteen percent!’
VIP state that: ‘All past and present Governments have abandoned, neglected and willfully sacrificed combat veterans and their families on their return from fighting in conflicts over the past six decades, by means of not having them deprogrammed from there purposely implanted ‘rage and anger’, in ensuring they remain thoroughly primed and ready ‘reservist’ combatants with a premeditated killing attitude towards other human beings, prior to their serving in any future conflicts!’ Yet, it is well known that this extreme violence created by indoctrinated intense ‘rage and anger’, is certainly not compatible with normal loving family household circumstances – resulting in very high occurrences of estrangement and homelessness amongst combat veterans.
