Who Will Protect Them?
War is hell. That's what some people say when I rail against the wanton death and destruction wrought by mighty fire-power raining down on a weak, helpless people.
War is hell.
As if admitting war is bad somehow makes it OK to have condemned the innocent.
Our kids, parents, brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles, cousins, friends, and neighbors have been betrayed. They face death or dismemberment, for nothing. They've been ordered to take innocent life, for nothing. They have been betrayed by a government with evil intent. They were sent to kill hundreds of thousands of innocents over oil, or water, or profiteering, or whatever. It really doesn't matter what the ultimate reason was, we know that none of the seemingly "just" causes laid before us as excuses to begin the war were true.
They signed up to protect us, but were sent on a fool's errand instead.
