Yes, it strikes home for me every time I hear about a new war based on lies. My brother in law died in Vietnam for a lie. He was drafted and his parents and one sister convinced him to go and he was reluctant. He died four months later. I can smell phony war lies a mile away and I am always out in the street and pushing congress against the forever wars.
