exactly HOW do we do things in America? Since the end of WWII, we have
invaded any number of foreign countries, killing more than 100,000 of
our own, maiming countless more, and killing literally millions of
others. We have done all this without a single declaration of war and
absolutely no noticeable positive result.
For Pete's sake, this
article could be Exhibit A. A civil war - this is a recurring theme -
between North and South Korea. The U.S. - with the phony imprimatur of
the U.N. - kills 33,000 of our own and inflicts terrible physical and
mental damage on many, many more. Where are we today? We have almost
30,000 troops there, and we are listening to an insane little monster
threatening us with nuclear weapons and "sacred" warfare. This is crazy.
I
think some times people like you do not understand that we feel a
serious debt of gratitude to you and your comrades. Speaking for
myself, I thank you and seriously appreciate your service. Moreso,
since I am a veteran. That does not mean however, that I am going to
share your world view.
There is no end to this insanity. I don't
know how many times I can point this out before people realize the
truth. Since I was born, the world has not seen one day of peace. Not
one. Yet, the masses - of whatever country - continue to rise up, thump
their chests, and demand death for the enemy du jour.
Now that
you have retired, I hope you can find time to read. You can verify my
assertion that we have not had peace on this planet for years upon
years upon years. Indeed, it seems we cannot live without war. If
nothing else, I urge you to read "1984".
Again, my thanks for your service, but I must disagree with your point of view. |
