A fellow Blogger recently posted about honoring those that have "served" our country and it may have been near November 11th which is Veterans Day in the US. I tried to insert my anti-war past in the Vietnam era but it didn't take. I have no idea how you can honor war veterans without honoring the war itself. I guess some people can separate the two.
Our real enemies are not those living in a distant land whose names or policies we don't understand; The real enemy is a system that wages war when it's profitable, the CEOs who lay us off our jobs when it's profitable, the Insurance Companies who deny us Health care when it's profitable, the Banks who take away our homes when it's profitable. Our enemies are not several hundred thousands away. They are right here in front of us
