Thursday Toon Roundup 1: War for Peace

[Bohemianwriter]

137. You willing to push the button yourself?

`Want another invasion and leave the Kurds, and the Shias and Iran out of it?

So if an alliance with Assad should be an option. Would USA start another war to oust Assad after another few hundred thousand have been killed?

As a veteran, I am SICKENED by the lapdogs of the powers to be running into wars, playing partisan, while forgetting that ISIL is a direct consequence of what USA with GOP (and a hell of a lot of Democrats too) played the war drum, competing on who was the most hawkish, eating the words of president Chimp on the Eve of the invasion...

Unless you are willing to push the button, put your boots on the ground yourself, or have your kid do it, then I suggest we take a long breath, and think...

First mistake was NOT holding your own Nuremberg trial after Obama took office.
We have more.
Drone attacks on civilians. Extra judicious executions.
Prosecuting whistle blowers for war crimes.
Hold your own people accountable when they commit war crimes. Have I seen any Democratic voice calling for the extradition of Bush and Cheney to Hague yet?
Is Gitmo closed yet?

And what are the excuses for NOT doing things right for a change?
Why insist running around like headless mental patients expecting a different result from the same repetitive mistakes?

On the note:

Iraq is history. There is no more Iraq. The Kurds have their interests, ISL got theirs, and so does the other Sunnis as well as the Shiites.
Iraq has become an ex. Yugoslavia.
And I went there AFTER seeing horrific images on the screen, resembling the death camps of WW2 in 1993.

But don't trust me. One single veteran.
Don't trust this veteran either. Or perhaps you should take our words and experience over chickenhawk pundits who's never seen combat?`
