What sane person isn’t anti-war anyway

I probably wouldn’t have so much problem with the anti-war morons except for the fact that they are such fucking hypocrites. All proceeds from one of the latest anti-war propaganda flicks/soundtracks goes to Iraq Veterans Against the War. The site reads like a made-for-TV John Kerry’s Fairy-Tail Apocalypse Redux
From March 13-16th, U.S. veterans who served in Iraq and Afghanistan will testify to what is really happening day in and day out, on the ground in these occupations.
The so-called “documentary” exploits Tomas Young, an Army veteran paralyzed in Iraq, and funnels the money to a left-wing anti-war political group. I just can not get my mind around why they wouldn’t direct some, if not all, of the proceeds to wounded soldiers. Hell, they could even limit their donations to Wounded Iraq Veterans Against the War, which would be any sane one of them.
I don’t think there will ever be peace and since one can never know how long one will hold the winning hand, I am for nipping problems in the bud whenever the opportunity presents. Therefore I also think we should treat our soldiers a hell of a lot better than we do because we are someday going to need them with much more urgency than we do now. Matter of fact we will most likely have to rely on using much greater force in the future precisely because we wont use greater force now.
Make no mistake, the Arabs want a fight; it is historical in nature. We made the mistake of leaving Europe basically intact after WWII expecting different behavior to result and we still haven’t learned our lesson. The old ways of Europe are over; the stakes are too high.
Americans are the only ones who would rather not fight unless absolutely necessary but when it comes down to it we need to be able to “do it” without interference from the weaker political class. People like Springsteen, Neil Young and the rest have no idea of the peace and love for which they are so fond of waxing eloquent nor about how peace and freedom is obtained.
