killing maddness

When will our government leaders realize that killing for a ' good cause ' is not right and cannot be justified. Killing in self defense or to protect our countries shores is sometimes necessary, but to wage war, killing for political or ideological purposes cannot be done in good conscience. Our citizens are not even considered in the decisions of this government. Hey, its tax time and perhaps a good time to hit this gov. in the pocket book. 58% of our tax dollars are going toward waging war. Apparently WE are the country with the weapons of mass destruction.

I agree. Craziness abounds in the US around this latest "humanitarian" effort WAR against Libya. Unconstitutional.
Where is Congress and the outrage at how fast the planes were ordered into war. And we end up killing the people
we pretend to want to save. Go figure. Oh yeah, it isn't war, it's doublespeak "KINETIC MILITARY ACTION". George Orwell
couldn't have dreamed that one up any better.

What would Orwell do in Libya?
