Polish philosopher Leszek Kolakowski

“The destructive action of totalitarian machinery is usually supported by a special kind of primitive social philosophy. It proclaims not only that the common good of ‘society’ has priority over the interest of individuals, but that the very existence of individuals, as persons, is reducible to the existence of the social ‘whole’; in other words, personal existence is, in a strange sense, unreal. This is a convenient foundation for any ideology of slavery.”

May 1983 essay Totalitarianism & the Lie,

Basically if the psychopathic control freak parasites can’t get you to go with the program, they will force you or kill you for refusing.

It defeats the purpose of having a killing force if one kills them off for refusing to kill. See Dietrich Bonhoeffer on Stupidity.

Whoever said what they do is logical or makes any sense? It is a fear tactic. I had a friend who was a drug dealer in Washington (legal drug dealer. A pharmacist) who said the way he kept out of going to Vietnam was by saying the way to stop the war is to shoot the guy handing out the rifles and then no one would want that job. They wouldn’t let him in because he PROMISED to do that. I will either live as a free man or die fighting those who want to enslave me.

I have nothing good to say about any of the Bushes. He could not get us into a war fast enough in the Middle East and an offshoot of Dick Cheney's Halliburton, Kellogg Brown and Root (KBR), formed as an offshoot of parent company Halliburton in 2007, is the largest recipient of defense contract funding as of March, 2013. The company made at least $39 billion because of the war.

WAR…WHAT is it GOOD FOR? To make psychopathic control freak parasites FILTHY RICH. As Smedley Butler said…ALL WARS ARE BANKER WARS. And I’d have to add what Dwight Eisenhower said…AND THE MILITARY INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX.

some time it is a necessary evil, so the attack on Pearl Harbor was about banking and hitler trying to control the world, it was about banking. when i joined the Army i knew exactly what i was getting into and i enjoyed it, the comradery, something civilians will never know or maybe understand. if there was no draft no one would fight and not all are front line soldiers, more are not. unfortunately there will always be greedy love of money types like Channey who think money is more important then human lives. the only way is for Yeshua to return and straiten us all out

Read Day Of Deceit: The Truth About FDR and Pearl Harbor https://www.amazon.com/Day-Deceit-Truth-About-Harbor/dp/0743201299

Maybe if the first 13 words were in force and effect we would have the same kind of comradery that you had. Why not? If we were INVADED who would need a draft? We are the ones that are doing the invading which is why no one would fight without a draft. Are you that blind? Yahshua already returned. He is either in your or not. I hope I don't sound too harsh Victoria, but I have to admit, if I had lived your life and was brought some of what I teach in my face I'd have to try to cover my guilty conscience for it. I'm trying not to be judgmental, I'm just being honest. According to the US Constitution we have NO REASON For a standing army. https://www.courageouslion.us/p/those-forgotten-and-ignored-13-words

There are, unfortunately, times when war is necessary.

Only in defense of ones home and country. When was the last time the United States was ACTUALLY attacked by a foreign power? And don’t give me 911 because that was an inside job and it wasn’t an attack by anyone outside of possibly the CIA and MOSSAD. The Founding Fathers made it VERY CLEAR in many quotes they DID NOT WANT a standing army. PERIOD. They also didn’t want “police actions” or any other extraneous crap going on in other parts of the world. They had been victims of a standing army. Read my post to get a clear understanding of their reasoning. https://www.courageouslion.us/p/those-forgotten-and-ignored-13-words

I guess you would have no problem with me just punching you in the face for no reason, right? Is that funny? Is going to far away lands that we have no fucking business in and killing people that never harmed us OK in your mind David? is that funny too? If so, you might need to get on some meds. But stay away from SSRI drugs as we don't want you picking up a rifle and shooting up a movie theater or somewhere else. Or am I missing something with "AND a comedian"?
