Death as Currency

War corrupts people terribly. One fine example of this can be found in the article “War Pornography,” which exposes the reality that a large number of “US soldiers trade grisly photos of dead and mutilated Iraqis for access to amateur porn” at a website that counts 1/3 of its clients as soldiers. Whatever your stance on war, – and you know mine is strongly opposed to it – I hope you’d agree that reveling in death, mutilation and other aspects of war is a disgusting symptom of deep mental sickness. We must wonder how widely this has spread among those occupying Iraq and the impact it will have when they return to an already damaged America.

  1. I don't like to watch the news on tv, because of this reason. I do not like the idea of being entertained from the misery of others.

  3. It's terrifying to see how disgusting people can be. It really makes me sad, if it want's for my optimist I'd say the world is hopeless.
