War is about Wall Street,...War itself is terrorism. War is about Wall Street, Corporations, politics. The winners are G.E. - (largest corporation on earth), Halliburton, KBR, Bechtel, Raytheon, RCA, the C.E.O's, C.F.Os, the GOP, the generals, the arms Merchants, CNN, NBC, ABC.. etc...,<br /> The losers are the uneducated, poor, old and suffering. The young men have no opportunities available but there is always the military.They can get free college and 'up to' $40,000 to start a business. So your son wants to join. How do you feel about it? Do you consider the game? Which is......:<br />Put your son on the roulette table and bet on him.<br />If you/he wins - you save $40,000 in college money,<br />he'll be able to move out and support himself when he comes home or someone knocks on the door to tell you he's dead.<br /> Now, let's say that on a certain day a universal peace -pact was passed. Miraculously, war was universally banned. In a short time the world economy would collapse - the fall of the Roaming Empire, as it were. It's a matter of stopping ourselves from having to blow stuff up, especially other people. This is an easy choice for the military and the stupidly talented because it negates the need to know anything or feel anything. We are going to devolve into "killer parrots"<br />- hearing and repeating the all-day mantra of Rush<br />"I'll need two chairs, please" Limbaugh. Do we transcend this or what? We're at a world-wide cross-road. Raise all boats with education for all so minds<br />think critically and creatively? - or let it all keep happening just like it is. We will continue to develop more powerful weapons and sell them to everyone so any "army", read: (bunch of kids in their twenties) can slaughter any other 'attacker' more efficiently than the last model. Just invest in any of those corporations because they'll be in business for a long time - at least until there are no more customers.Itch41https://www.blogger.com/profile/04726780024892766273noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-629719238507382416.post-56410703235009757322011-03-28T11:55:07.177-07:002011-03-28T11:55:07.177-07:00Terrorism is the policy deliberate targeting of ci...Terrorism is the policy deliberate targeting of civilians in order to influence political policy or effect 'regime change'. I don't see a whole lot of evidence that the US is doing that, but nothing can surprise us.Ronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00845676752635244417noreply@blogger.com
