No one wins friends by dropping bombs on them. None of us would like it and guess what, neither do those who receive the ordnance. Either commit to a task and stop posturing for the general public, or go fight the fucking thing yourself.

Politicians and bankers make lotsa money when wars happen. Does anyone here think there are altruistic reasons for war? Are they worth the lives of our children, of the poverty they bring upon us? Keriste, gimme it a rest. That notion is what the various media sell, and how did we become so stupid as to buy it?

Simply refuse to play the game. Various people here bring forth their platitudes and staunchly defend them. They bring up histories that no longer matter. Sorry bucko, but you be talkin' to the wrong guy. You support war, have at it. Go take care of it in person.

I suggest that we no longer go to war unless the children of politicos lead us into battle. It may not be a solution, but it may define the lines that delineate why we fight and the willingness we think someone else's kid should have. Until then, no thank you.
