Got a cold chill reading this Harry.
But I agree 100% with what you mean.

It is immoral to sit safe in your house while you urge that the sons and
daughters of other families be sent off to foreign lands to fight and
die in a war based on a president's incompetency, stupidity, and deceit.


Harry, are you really one who should be talking of sitting safely in your house
while others are being sent to foreign lands to fight and die?

I think not.

For a non-participant, you are quick with the moral judgements.

I disagree, John. I think that if an elected official votes in favor of the
war, whether to signify agreement or to provide funding, that person's kids
should be the first to enlist. They should have 7 days to do this, or be
arrested. People who voted for a candidate who declared the war - same
thing. Off with their children, or the voters themselves, if they're
otherwise eligible for service (age & health). A little over half the
country voted for Nookular Boy. Take away those who are too old to serve or
have no kids and I'd imagine we could still come up with what.....maybe
10-20 million new soldiers? End of recruiting problem.

If there's a good reason not to think this way, I haven't heard it yet.

The big fat ones are not that bright. Believe most of them migrated to
the Floriduh burbs some time ago. Ever had any dealings with them?

You may be missing something very important here. Pay close attention.

Perhaps, due to the way the present America was taken by force from
the original inhabitants, war is in the cultural heritage of the us
somewhat seen as a legitimate and effective means to an end, much more
than in europe. Our cultural heritage is older, with much more
experience in the field of losing and of what happens if a country is
defeated but also humiliated (ww1, Germany). All european countries
have had their serious defeats and the history books tell all about
it. In europe I grew up (10 years after ww2) with a notion of "war is
hell. It must be prevented as much as possible".

But I respect that sometimes not acting is even worse than acting.
When the acting is based on lies, all legitemacy is lost up front.
Retreat is another matter, you will have to take into account what
situation will arise after that. After all you're responsible as a
world-leading nation that has started the war unilaterally.

Regards, Len.


Your comment, "When the acting is based on lies..." let's us all know where
you're coming from.

That post displays one of the reasons the Democrats lost the last election.

Would your proposal have worked for WW II?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but two countries declared war on us, and we knew
which countries they were. Right?
