2/ If the American people allowed ourselves to truly take in the horror of what people from Vietnam to Iraq to Afghanistan have suffered because of our own craven, misdirected foreign policies, no amount of sleeping pills could give any of us a good night’s sleep.

3/ On the other hand, taking in that horror is perhaps what’s needed in order to motivate us to rise up against the insanity of the military industrial complex. As it is, we’re just waiting for the next mad adventure. The madness needs to stop.

You are right about this. It’s horrible. I get so upset about what is happening to the women there. I wish we would help them.
