Remember the lies and lying liars who condemned them to die

Read today, in a peace newsletter:

 

"Perhaps the most difficult thing to do will be to challenge the notion that warriors of all stripes are true heroes. If the war they are fighting is unjust, they are not heroes. If they never get blood on their hands while they cause death and destruction half way around the world they are not heroes. If they are cogs in a military machine which robs the poor of the world they are not heroes. If they choose to act in secrecy they are not heroes. If they join the military for economic reasons they are not heroes. Many in this group end up being physically or mentally injured by war. Then their stories are exploited by those advancing the cause of militarism. Thus they end up being victimized twice. Finally we must challenge the leaders of all nations who exploit the idea of military sacrifice to further their own control of power and resources. They must be held accountable for the increase in civilian casualties in the wars which they promote."
