Re The Cassandras Are Warning Of Nuclear Doom – So Why Doesn’t Canada Seem To Care? 

A very good question.
  Why no peace movement to stop these endless evil wars pushing the nuclear clock to midnight?

  War and the huge profits made by the military-industrial complex are the root of all economic and political evil. Thus, after 16 years of war, originated and perpetuated mostly by the West's economic and geopolitical greed, we are burdened with such disasters as voting in elections for the least of the evils. As well, we are burdened with leaders stealing the wealth of our nations from the people to bestow it on billionaires.
  The US has spent 5 trillion dollars on war, war, war while everything in their country deteriorates.

   Think the media isn't the enemy of the people?  The unthinkable has become mandatory. War is good and sexy; peace is worthless.  Canadians need to snap out of their self-deceiving illusions and start turning our values around.
