The idea that war can ever bring freedom is quite possibly the greatest deception that mankind has ever forced upon himself.

When you get right down to it, militaries are essentially legalized mafias.

I find it significant that most military veterans become pacifists.

I absolutely hate the way the United States glorifies its military and its wars. Real heroes fight for peace.

The very thought that war can ever be justified, let alone desirable or even noble, is quite honestly the greatest deception that mankind has ever forced upon himself.

Why is it acceptable to do such horrible things in the name of staying alive? Would it not have been better had I died with my innocence intact?

Having been to war myself, I do not understand why so many people are so in love with it.
