Subject: War details and reasons always trivial when compared to a single life
Subject: War details and reasons always trivial when compared to a single life
What are they fighting for? really why do they fight?...
If anyone ever wondered what it could be like if the human race dropped its already few IQ points and then suddenly went all loony bin crazy onits own bubble, then look no further mate, we never actually had a chance to be smart, the fact is we have yet to prove if indeed humans are actually smarter then other animals, if we look real close and actually get to learn more about how animals live we may get trouble to understand why we consider ourselves so superior, indeed thinking ourselves superior, or better than the next is actually a sign of weakness, the same weakness that leads 50 plus generals and their troops to uphold the stupid military doctrine and it's war machine.
There is but one good thing in the military system and it doesn't even belong to it, it is rather intrinsically human and exploited by the system, taken advantage of by the military machine, it is friendship, camaraderie, that is what gives meaning to the whole military fiasco, that is what many 18 year old children die for while holding a rifle and wearing the colors of a country, they don't die for their country, they die for their comrades for that's all that makes sense in the situation they're innocently thrown in, like lambs.
Like lambs, 19 year old children, made soldiers, herded into platoons stuffing battalions, fattening the gears of war, the money machine that serves the few, the very same few that never once set foot inside a battlefield. They powerful advises, make demands and finally orders thw mighty war machine.
It never had to be like this, never.
We have been lied since long before the beginning of our history and we keep being lied to, everyday, everyday we will hear about a menace, about something afoot to harm us...
Believe it when i say no harm will ever come that can be worse than our already crippled civilization, we are decadent and have become grotesque in the process when we mix our priorities.
A life is a most precious gift of this or any other universe, there is no other set of uniqueness as which can be found in a person, humans are totally unique, each and every one of us. To even think one can kill and be paving the way to a better future is to deny any remaining decency of the human spirit, to destroy whatever it is we think makes us human so it really is quite a major paradox that of fighting for freedom, to fight for freedom requires understanding the differences in others, absorbing them, becoming them and letting them become us.
But then again the whole world is screwed since long ago, we have had it all wrong for thousands of years, maybe we should perhaps chance a clean slate which anyway is more than probable anyway with the escalating nuclear pussy footing one can observe in the world scene.
Am i being bleak or what?
Just so you don't think i am all negative here, how about this for a starter.
Never, ever judge others by what you know, remember we never know it all, try to understadn what it is the "stranger" lives by, and try yourself living it, that is if you really want to meddle in their culture, if not well why bother them in the first place.
Now a note to finish.
We will never have peace while there are countries, countrie are a bad thing, what with nation prides and all.
Football teams are bad too, actually all teams are bad,not bad in themselves but bad for the system, what goes about inside the tema is nice the problem is it shouldn't be circunscribed to the team alone, but rather spread to all walks of life.
For the Creator's sake people, just love, why are you all so afraid of loving and relaxing, love, admit it, go out, yeah you go out of your hole and make it up to that neighbor you just screamed at maybe because he was using your parking place, you wre burning in anger huh?
now why's that?
and what for, did you feel good about being angry?
won't you feel better by going there and meekly asking for his understanding and please won't he forgive you for your raging outburst? doesn't it feel good, don't you feel lighter almost reborn, of course you do and you wil be more productive, more energized, more aware, you will notice life more often instead of being bottled up and choking in on your ego. Egos are bad, bad bad, chastise it, yes chastise your ego often, you should really just listen to your own inner voice, just listen to it carefully, you don't need my advice or anybody's, not yoru president, not your priest or reverend, you don't need anyone's advice, you know it, we all know it, its inside us, it talks to us, some call it God, other's call it whatever they may or suits them, just do listen, in silence, you won't ever have to be affraid anymore.

Subject: What they're fighting for.
To the reviewer who asks, "what are they fighting for?" The answer is, so you can sit on your butt, free to express your feelings to the world, and safe in knowing another gang of American-hating suicidal-murderers will not try to kill you...again.

Subject: And what are they fighting for?
Nice bit of film, suitably nice piece of patriotic music, quite entertaining but the question is - What are they fighting for?
A bunch of crazies in the White House and Downing Street thats who for, what a terrible waste of human life, how I feel for those soldiers and their families. I look forward to the time when Bush, Blair and all the other nutters around them are made to account for their actions (which by the way had as much to do with terrorism as I have to honest reporting on the Fox news channel.
