33. War is hell

What do you suppose you would feel if someone dear to you had their legs blown off, the features seared off their face, or their spinal cord severed and you heard their screams of agony? What would you want to do to people who ran around burying high explosives in a thousand places in the hopes of maiming or killing more people in your family? Soldiers in combat are often closer to their buddies than anyone else in their life before or after. I work with Vietnam vets who 50 years later still hear in their dreams the gurgling moans of dying friends. If you think you wouldn't or couldn''t act the way these men did, you are deluded.

Our government trains men to be brute killers, puts them into hopeless wars where they are despised by civilians, where combatants are indistinguishable from everyone else and then gives them rules of engagement that could get everyone in their company killed. That kind of "warfare" which the US has specialized in, has led to millions of dead, maimed and crazed victims including hundreds of thousands of US troops whose sacrifice and suffering was only for someone else's profit or some doomed geopolitical strategy. You think those soldiers can't figure it out or aren't feeling pissed on themselves?
