They fly the planes, drop the bombs, and pull the pins and triggers. They terrorize vulnerable people and they make the decision to join. It is not the abstract concept of “war” that causes all of this senseless destruction. The sentiment that US troops are “brave” and “heroic” purported by statists is one of the most vile lies on Earth. US soldiers are simply hired killers in the largest, most advanced, best equipped, and most heavily funded military on Earth who terrorize mostly defenseless people for control of their resources and people. What happened to protection from domestic enemies?
I'm rather grateful to the Russian soldiers that liberated the camp my grandfather was in. Your statement may be a little too absolute.
You are correct, we all need to wake up and encourage our children to care about people not the almighty dollar which is why our more poor people enlist. If we bring our children up with the less is more views, then maybe the government's fake promise of compensation will be less attractive to our youth.
