107. I am totally opposed to sending anyone's son or neice into war = we all
Edited on Sun Nov-07-04 01:22 PM by higher class
were taken by this regime. Those kids were there because of 20-30 years of being able to satisfy a need to go into the military and expect to come back. I can't support anyone who is there because they thought they were being given license to kill anyone. I am passionately against war. I am passionately opposed to the death penalty. I can't bear to think about all these youth who have had a 30 year belief that they could fulfill a military service and come back with their immune system, organs, limbs, families, hopes and dreams intact.

I detest the fact that the United States of America now exports killing for profit. It is a travesty that we are killing innocents.I have a signature linking the www.costofwar.com website.

I don't believe in any killing and I believe that the right wing does not have a right to speak peace, even if they could. They are directing a killing bath.

But, it is up to us to get those youth out of there - it is an impossibility that they can save us by quitting. I believe with all powers that they become brain-washed - and some were brain-washed through a culture of bigotry before joining. Most did not. But, they were raised with glorified military movies, games, and toys. We did it to them. We are partly to blame, mostly because those who knew that killing Iraq was for profit.
