Remembrance Day

Remembrance Day to me is a reminder that wars are terrible acts, and ones that should be avoided at all cost. All sides lose. Bottom line.
With Bush and the American government’s push for war, I can’t help but feel sick that people are still repeating the terrible actions of the past. As an agressor, the US would be no better than Germany when it attacked other nations unprovoked. Sending thousands of people of their own country to die killing many innocent people. For what? Iraq is no true threat to the safety of Americans, at least no more than a dozen other nations that it is attempting to ignore. It’s about money, a president trying to hide his many flaws(and somehow doing this far too easily), desire for oil, which should be phased out by now anyway, and who knows how many other agendas that will help only the rich and powerful. In economic crisis, you don’t spend billions on blowing stuff up, and killing innocents, you use it to help the poor and improve a nation on a downward spiral.
Remember that wars are hell and never to be embraced or welcomed.
