Understand why we are at war now?
I hate war as only a soldier who has lived it can, only as one who has seen its brutality, its futility, its stupidity.
- General Dwight D. Eisenhower

1. We have improved on war now
Edited on Sun Jun-05-05 09:18 PM by firefox
Technology has made it all but painless and very cost effective. Sometimes war is the only way to promote freedom and democracy and raise the standard of living for the general population. With the weaponization of space we will have global utopia.
