All wars are illegal as the decision to declare war is made by a corporation in London, or the Corporation of London in the Square Mile that is outside the perimeters of the United Kingdom

The only way War is anywhere near "justifiable" is when a nation is under attack and forced to defend itself and its citizens.

So, for Military Industrial, you need a "justifiable" reason, hmmm....

"War vs. Conservatism"

Posted by Matt Hawes on 03/11/10

Kudos to Congressman John Duncan for an excellent speech yesterday on our never-ending wars during Wednesday's debate on the resolution to end the war in Afghanistan.

"The Pentagon now says it costs 1 billion dollars per year for each 1000 troops that we send there."

Afghanistan War Debate Begins In Congress! (Finally!) pt.9 Congressmen Paul & Kennedy

From: MoxNewsDotCom | March 13, 2010

Kudos to Patrick Kennedy for his speech and for mentioning that there is "NO PRESS! NO PRESS"!

"Do you want to know why the American public is fit because they're not seeing their congress do the work that they're sent to do. It's because the press is not covering the most significant issue of national importance and that's the laying down of lives. IT'S DESPICABLE!!!"

I have yet to see where we draw the line in the sand where good old American Medical Manufacturers need and buy raw opium to make opiate derivitive products like codein,morphine etc and where to STOP the Taliban.
The U.S.Governmnet IS protecting some of those fields for our big business interests. Where do we draw the line? And how many lives do we give for this mistake? I'm sorry.. I support out troops..but, I am extremely skeptical the outcome of this war will gain us anything in this region.
Russia is laffing their butts off that we committed to this.
They tryed and failed for 12years. AND at the time...American weapons were used AGAINST the Russians while we supplied the "freedom fighters" their Ammo. I am so surprised there is not more outrage over this atrocity.
Why are'nt there more protests against this war?

In my opinion..the only reason all these military people are out of the U.S. is because our government does'nt want this many healthy young people in the U.S. within our borders unemployed. What else are they going to do?
Safer to keep young healthy American boys and girls somewhere other then within our borders fighting ANYTHING,then be home young and healthy,unemployed and discontent.
I hope I'm wrong.
