Berkeley Works For The Military

It is well known that University of California at Berkeley is a bastion of liberal idiocy and that the people of that town and who attend that college, by and large, are anti American and have supported our enemies in this and in past wars. The people of Berkeley are so anti American that they have allowed anti war groups to protest a Marine recruiting station. Berkeley also has trouble with recruiters on the campus and the legislative body has passed resolutions calling the Marine recruiters uninvited and unwanted.

The Berkeley campus is full of liberal twits who oppose our military and its use. They want other Americans to stop supporting the troops and they want the country to stop spending money in Iraq. So why is it that this anti American, anti military college accepts money from the military to do research?

A news story today indicates that researchers at Berkeley are working on a process that will make things invisible by a process that involves bending light waves. While this is an interesting story the money shot is this paragraph:

Researchers at the University of California at Berkeley, whose work is funded by the American military, have engineered materials that can control light’s direction of travel. The world’s two leading scientific journals, Science and Nature, are expected to report the results this week. [emphasis mine] Times Online UK

Now why is it that this college would accept money from the military for research? How could they possibly be taking money to do work that could be used to help our troops have an even bigger advantage on the battlefield?

Perhaps the holier than though college with so many high and mighty “enlightened” people is nothing more than a war profiteer. They are actually nothing more than what they claim Halliburton is and that is an entity that makes money off the backs of the military and off the government war machine.

Berkeley is nothing more than a bunch of hypocrites who claim to be morally superior to the rest of us for their opposition to the war but in reality they are war profiteers who will accept the military but only when there is money involved.
