Hi Jacob Snyder; Re: "You've suddenly got a lot more pessimistic (more than me, now), and a lot angrier. What happened?" When your country is at war, your natural instinct is to support it. It is only when it becomes obvious that the war is unwinnable that your instinct is overridden. At that time, great anger comes forth from a feeling of betrayal. Other people will feel it later. Imagine how the British felt who saw early on that King George's attempt to keep the American colonies was doomed. Or the Americans who realized that Vietnam wasn't winnable. No hopeless war is moral. -- Carl
