something wrong with your links JCF..


i was born on one of the major battlefields of WW1, never thought much about it growing up, but now, the more i read, the more i am disgusted about what happened, and even though it is terrible, and gutwrenching stuff to read, i have to read it... and the more i do , the more i loathe the glorifying of war

don't get me wrong, i do not diss those that are at the front of any war, i diss those who allowed things to escalate to that point...

If you look at the uncensored pictures, and then at the propagandised illusrations, you see how they managed to fool young men to sign up for death...


yet the same thing still happens , although more subtle
they still try to sweet talk the press, embedded reporters
they still try to get a less gruesome view out
they still sucker young men (and now women) to sign away the best year of their life, their sanity , or limbs with bull**** propaganda... now they even have Army's producing computer games to get kids hooked on glory before they have the sense to see the perspective s

and still the same deal, those who decide on wars, sit in comfi chairs... pushing around tactics and numbers and memo's... all from the luxury of "home", i'm not going to name anybody , i don't want this to become a political thread, it's a universal theme, happens in many countries...


it's sickening to see that human kind has still not figured out a way to deal with conflicting interests in sensible way...that in group we are still no better then a group of Chimps or Baboons, fighting for territory , resources , or just to proove a point...
