I have very split feeling on the fallen men and woman I truly feel for the loss and there familys loss and have many family members who have served ... But all wars are bank wars. I think Einstein said it best ..
He who joyfully marches to music rank and file has already earned my contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal cord would surely suffice. This disgrace to civilisation should be done away with at once. Heroism at command, senseless brutality, deplorable love-of-country stance and all the loathsome nonsense that goes by the name of patriotism, how violently I hate all this, how despicable and ignoble war is; I would rather be torn to shreds than be part of so base an action! It is my conviction that killing under the cloak of war is nothing but an act of murder.
Albert Einstein
Thanks for commenting although I don't think the world would have known who Einstein was had he not escaped Europe when he did.
True ...And I truly do respect the men and woman who lost there lives and stood up in the thick of things when there was no choice and our politicians had gotten us in to deep .. The best honor we could give these fine people would be end all wars .. And the tools and thinking used to start them..
