Richard, you're not being disrespectful, you're using one of those basic freedoms that every country should have - freedom of speech. One of many "freedoms" that, and I can't speak for other countries, American soldiers have fought for, along with a long list of other basic freedoms. You are correct that ordinary people die, but I would add that extraordinary people die as well. Those power struggles are often for more than just power. Complete dominance to the extreme is often the case. I agree that we don't need wars, but they are a sad reality of the human race. My friend Richard, it's my opinion that they will continue until Judgement Day. Now, go to bed and get a good nights sleep, or not.

Why Can't We Be Friends by WAR
