My dad was in wwI--tank divisions in europe after escaping Nazi Germany with some of his family(some died in the concentration camps)and arriving here at age 16; He's now almost 85. I think there's a big difference between that JUSTIFIABLE intervention/war and what we have done in Vietnam, etc to now.I think it's pretty darn obvious , and it CERTAINLY is to the rest of the world (whether those with blinders choose to see or not) what our motives have been in these recent years.If anyone thinks for a nanosecond that our highest elected officials care at all for lost American lives , they are sadly mistaken. Profit and greed rules and the insane amount of $$$$ we spend every day could solve ALL of our nation's problems---hey we could even build a fence to keep out the illegals which would make some people happy!!!VINTAGE PEACE NOW!!!(to keep this a vintage post!!)
