Should this war move forward and American deaths and casualties mount, to a point where this personally affects small town America and inner city neighborhoods, many of the war chants you're now seeing will turn into calls for an end.
Yes, there will become a want for peace and there will become a want for our American soldiers to come home into our own backyards, and not warring someone else's.
When you compare the writing of those who want peace and those who want war, one can only conclude that some people are cold before they become warm; whereas others are just, well, cold--and not much can be done except for the example to painfully demonstrate itself.
A prideful boost for the venom of war, in my view, is a sad human phenomenom and one in great need of change and nurturing. "Forgive them, for they know not what they do," I suppose is the only sensible approach to the mentality that shapes good people into being bad, when they're not. |
