Why is it that those who incite wars are not those who fight wars?

Question

The Leaders call to arms yet never carry arms - the people carry arms and legs and dead babies! The leaders are the problem folks - the general populace are the cannon fodder. And yet this BS continues - why are "we" still fighting other peoples battles?

Idamahn - LOL - boy oh boy have you got ME pegged - NOT

Why oh why can't this question be taken seriously folks - Pretend I am not of any nation and not referring to any nation in particular...my words still ring true - yet you cover your ears and refuse to hear.

Candy Girl - your rebuttal would have been scathing had it anything to do with my question...ouch. If I ain't promoting peace then I am part of the problem I am against, right sorry forgot where I was for a moment and I'll not leave my place again.

Candy - you can't keep using the same silly answer for every question that puts Bush in the bad light he's earned - Which one of the twins are you?! ;-)

Answer 1

"We" aren't. Until "You" pick up a gun and join the fight, it's "Them". Also last time I checked the U.S. military was a 100% volunteer force. They have chosen their path. Also, the ones who fight wars do not have the power, voice, or positions to incite war.

Answer 2

Only the poor and very patriotic fight wars. You have never seen, nor will you ever seen, a very rich man or the son of a President fighting in a war. Ages ago kings led their men into battles. It gave the men the confidence and leadership they needed when they needed it, not after someone had to leave the battlefield and call them on the phone to see what to do next.

But, as for today, we are doing what we must. We live in a free country and want to stay that way. Imagine if someone nuked us and we were taken to our knees. We would have no support from our so-called 'friends' because they would be too afraid to help, thinking they would be next. And the terror would continue, not cease. After all, they want us all dead, not just crippled.

Answer 3

What are you doing to promote peace?

You know if people would stop wasting time trying to cause trouble and start making solutions the world would be a peaceful place.

I don't recall seeing your name as a presidential candidate.

I am sure you don't like it when people judge you unfairly.

Let there be peace on earth and let it begin with me.
