Some live to make war. Look at Hussein, Noriega, Cedras. That's what the administration wants us to think. It's existence has never prevented a war. All it has done is consume mass quantities of money and energy that could better be spent elsewhere and advanced the economic interests of a special few elite by unjust and immoral acts.
Any solution reached by force is an unjust and immoral solution.
We can always find an alternative to violence as long as we think creatively. Our military is a showcase of our technological triumphs but also a bleak monument to our utter barbarity. Eventually, possibly even in our own lifetimes, there will be a world-wide consensus that mankind does not need armies and navies. But the more people buy the propaganda of the power structure that there are bad guys out there we need to defend ourselves from, the farther into the future that bright, shining day is pushed. I've never known a more honorable Republican.
