35. I agree. Ending the war would be one small step...
but the problem is the rule of corporate elites over this country. "We the People" are not in control of what is going on in OUR government. It can be argued that we haven't been in any profound sense for many years. Now it has caught up with us. The system is corrupt beyond redemption.

Revolutions, however, are always risky business. Chances are just as good that a "revolution" (in quotes) would only make things worse. I'm sure PNAC (et al) see THEMSELVES as "revolutionaries" (as opposed to reactionaries).

Still, I agree w/ JFK: "Those who would make peaceful revolution impossible, make violent revolution inevitable."
