When in Rome...
It is the 4th century here in Rome. We hire others to do our work because we're Romans and we can. Rome is Eternal. The native born peasantry support us out of knee jerk patriotism, barbarian mercenaries protect us because we can afford it, and there's bread and circuses on TV and the Internet to entertain us. All of this is divinely ordained, the profits in Armani suits tell us so. As for the smoke on the horizon and the sound of marching - nothing to see here, so move along.

I Hate War
I most recently took some time off and traveled South and then East. I spent some of my days soaking up information at Monticello, Mt. Vernon studying my favorite Presidents. I received many lessons on my journey, including a lesson in suffering in respect to slavery, the evil that surrounded it....and war. I ended my journey in Washington D.C.
FDR once said "I have seen the agony". War: In today's society, we have become immune to the word. It's become a way of life for Americans. If a foreigner were to ask you to describe American history, the typical American would describe it in terms of what war we were in. But if you look to even our most "popular" president and to our most "popular" war - even he said "I hate war", "I have seen the agony".
Please put away your bed of apathy.
