WWII isn't Iraq, for sure. People are more concerned with making money, or being political, than anything else. Sure there was horrible profiteering during pretty much every conflict, but this last round was truly sickening. What about the rolling stone article link I posted? If even one of the five pages had real info, things have gone horribly wrong. I don't doubt that at least some of it was true, just because of what I've seen with my own eyes so far. what's the deal with the poppy fields, btw? I would find it funny, were it not such a grave issue, that the "War on Drugs" is interfering with "The War on Terror". Well, actually, it's pretty funny, even so. LOL. Hilarious. *sigh* our country has been sliding for soooo long, really. The quickening was what really got me, and the fact that so few people seem to care. __ The pendulum swings, wildly. Is the phoenix burning, again?
