Peace in our time

Greetings good citizen, what better time to discuss 'world peace' than the winter solstice celebration of Festivus?

Has anyone [never mind our scatter-brained media] ever asked 'what's the shooting all about?'

No, even the GWOT was received as a public service announcement that the latest exercise in 'protecting our freedom' [what freedom in particular they weren't specific about] would commence as soon as we offloaded our troops in a place that had nothing to do with recent attack.

How sad is it when our 'friends' do us dirt we go and give our 'enemies' a good thrashing...just because we can.

For reasons unknown, this somehow translates to the incredible question of 'why do they hate us?'

The answer to this media shill question is fairly obvious, if you MURDER my loved ones because you can, I'm not going to be especially fond of you either!

Yet the camera can still find the occasional dolt who will display their monumental ignorance for the world to marvel at.

[which is to opine sometimes 'neck deep in stupid' seems like an understatement.

So, where were we? Oh yeah, 'peace on Earth'.

Wilson [the same moron that gave us the 'League of Nations', which later morphed into the UN, imitating it's host's name...but bonehead was also responsible for the Federal Reserve and the subsequent widespread ignorance regarding MONEY! (via some of the first 'educational standards' initiatives ever instituted...)]

If we back track to the 'marooned' conundrum, you know the question of 'why are we here?' one would suspect our 'function' is to fight off anything that comes sniffing around so deeply ingrained is war in our psyche.

This also begs the question of 'at whose behest' do we lay down our lives for?

Is it they who dictate that we be at one another's throats?

War is generally over resources that could just as easily be shared rather than fought over so who resorts to 'military might' instead of negotiation?

Armchair warriors are the most dangerous kind!

Those that believe 'might makes right' are a scourge upon civilization, not just their own but any who harbor them!

So, how do you feel now about the president elect picking ol' 'Mad Dog' to be his Sec of Defense?

[That aside pretty much anyone is better than Rummy!]

Most of you have stopped reading again but this is where we ask the important point:

ARE WE ON A TREAD MILL?

If we look back through history, war appears to be the 'preferred method' of conflict resolution without exception...mostly because 'treaties' [especially the 'made to be broken' kind] haven't done spit to 'keep the peace'

How many of you remember what the third pillar of civilization is?

That's right Peace! Why is peace vital to civilization? Because without peace there can be NO PROSPERITY!

Yes, good citizen, the widespread poverty often driven by war keeps the 'war machine' fed.

How do we dismount this insidious monstrosity?

Just say no?

Those who have the courage to refuse have a different name, we call them 'cowards'. This coming from weasels that will do anything to avoid combat and enduring the privations of war personally.

They consider themselves 'too important' to die...for any reason.

Don't you think these are the numbskulls we need to summarily execute?

Considering that war really translates to the most savage method of 'population control' one can imagine [and is otherwise 'useless'; nevermind the enormous waste of it all!] War has zero purpose.

Yet we still fight...most often for the dumbest reasons imaginable.

and nothing is stupider than fighting over a made up deity.

GOD CAN'T BE DEAD BECAUSE HE NEVER EXISTED IN THE FIRST PLACE!

So, what ARE we fighting for?

Shouldn't we be fighting the gross mismanagement of our species?

Again, I describe a fairly 'one sided' conflict. the hardest part will be ferreting out those who 'profited' from the widespread suffering they were responsible for.

Peace on Earth, good citizen. it is neither 'impossible' nor hard to imagine. How ironic is it that if we wipe out all of the 'fake gods' we'd be more than halfway there!

Which is to point out that 'nonsense' is learned and guess where it comes from? Well-intentioned parents!

Thanks once again for letting me inside YOUR head!
