Re: one more question.
war is murder. the only justification for murder in most peoples minds is defense of threat of life of self and loved ones. all the good people in the military have this noble goal. they have nothing to do with the politics. AND, if we ever need a military for real, we will all be in it and they will be the ones to lead us and train us.
i believe deterrence works. i also believe our capabilities have been abused for political and financial gain of a select few and i am not approving of that one bit.
thats your neighbors son that just came home in a box. you cant tell her it was for nothing, that you have not gained due to their sacrifice. i honestly dont know what you say to someone like that. parents arent supposed to see their children die before they do. its not right.
like i said, someone needs to educate the young people. they have been de-educated by the state and are mind controlled zombies on most levels. i talk to the kids every chance i get. they listen intently, but life looms too large for them to get bogged down in the details. make them develop good habits while they are young.

Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.
