War

What do you think about war? I mean, war is supposed to "resolve" conflicts you have with other countries. What happens when you go kick some butt. They want to fight back. I think war is just mindless, barbaric torture. There is no reason for it at all...I could see if some one else initiated war on your country first, it would be natural instinct to defend yourself; but that isn't war, its defense. People die everyday, due to the Iraq war, and it's pointless...Why did they have to die? They didn't deserve to die, they didn't even get anything out of dying. Not pride for your country, no money, no fame.....All they do is lose arms and legs....So what are you opinions on war? I think it's monitored murder. You kill some people, report the number to high ranked officers, and you get promoted. Its inhumane....

How dare you wage war against me with your trollery.

Help! I'm being oppressed!

Exactly, the people being sent into war are mere puppets of the government. The Gov't doesn't want to do the dirty work; therefore, they recruit other people to do it, and they get all the benefits...

Last I checked, the last time we did that, it didn't go so well. Besides! It's too cold. I wish we could invade someplace with nice weather. :/

There are always losers in war. Only sometimes are there winners.
