Views on War?

Do you think its right that the US invades countries when they feel like it? (Iraq, Vietnam) Or that they interfere in Civil Wars, by funding the "rebels", which the weapons end up in Terrorist hands?; that they help spread the war, make it worse. (Syria, Libya). Or do you think its right to arbitrarily torture enemy soldiers, and execute them? (Abu Ghraib) And let the soldiers off, as usual. - Slaughter family members of terrorists? (Al-Awlaki) - Perform "night raids" thus [u]accidentally [/u]killing civilians... Even covering up the evidence. (Khataba raid) - Apaches destroying populated apartments, and begging for an excuse to shoot civilians on the ground, which many women died in the building, and they blew up a van with a tutor and children inside, children survived. (07 Baghdad Strike). My views on war? It's bad, though fighting terrorism is somewhat justified. But it's not worth it, our forces are just encouraging terrorism, by invading their country, destroy their homes and killing their families with impunity. The US is far more of a threat to international stability than China or Russia. You've got to be a whistle-blower to be held accountable. Your views?

  • War has changed. It's no longer about nations, ideologies, or ethnicity. It's an endless series of proxy battles, fought by mercenaries and machines. War--and it's consumption of life--has become a well-oiled machine. War has changed. ID-tagged soldiers carry ID-tagged weapons, use ID-tagged gear. Nanomachines inside their bodies enhance and regulate their abilities. Genetic control, information control, emotion control, battlefield control…everything is monitored and kept under control. War…has changed. The age of deterrence has become the age of control, all in the name of averting catastrophe from weapons of mass destruction, and he who controls the battlefield, controls history. War…has changed. When the battlefield is under total control, war becomes routine.
