"war mongering generals"

Now I know you are seriously off your rocker. I grew up as a military "brat", am veteran myself, and my son is a Captain in the Army, recently back from Iraq.

Generals do not want war. Lesser ranks do not want war. "We", however, stand ready to do our country's bidding at risk to our own lives, and with the thought that we are honoring freedom and democracy by so doing.

If we are being used, "ours is not to reason why" and that's a tradition for which I hope our uniformed services never depart.
