Thank you so much for that great article... However, I must say I don't agree with your "antiwar" ideology. One cannot be "antiwar" whatsoever --just as one cannot be "anti-opinion", or "anti-politics"... It just doesn't make sense! You should keep in mind that wars are not always waged for their own sake only --they're only means, not ends by themselves. Besides, to believe that the US could, somehow, peacefully get away with its "American Way of Life" while the rest of the world collapses into chaos is pure folly... But that's perhaps the whole point of the antiwar creed: to make Americans believe that their society doesn't need to exert violence abroad to sustain itself, that "war" as a human tragedy, is fundamentally an un-American "value". Unfortunately, it is not.
