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.

When greed and selfishness based on power and money to serve the interests of lucrative industries and their government allies, you have unfathomable distortions in ethics, spirituality and common sense. Sad.

We were there for 20+years. Funded billions, trained their military. They folded within days of us leaving. At some point, the people of that country needed to take personal responsibility. 20+ years. Twenty plus

What were we supposed to do? Take all the women with us? Lead them to some other godforsaken country in the Middle East? We need to mind our business and let the realize their own future. We’ve set their culture back decades from our interference
