    I just want to remind everyone that those who call for war have never experienced it, and the closer you experience it, the less you want it.

      The folks who come back from war and get folded into the police state are still hungry to relive their “glory” days. The dime store torture goons that have climbed up the rectum of the political system and now occupy Governorships and Senate Seats are sadists who long for the rush of hot blood splatter and the siren’s song of human screams. The gangs of rapists unleashed across Gaza, Egypt, Jordan, and Iraq by their IDF commanders are like locusts - they’ve been created to destroy and that’s all they know how to do.

      The closer you are to war the more is transforms you into a creature of war.

      I’ve always liked the idea that people who get a country into a war have to have skin in the game: either go to the frontlines, or have a family member there.
