Thats your opinon tho keep in mind there is rhetoric EVERYWHERE you go.Personally i dont share your view but thats why we live in a somewhat free society we can differ in our views.

As for you comment on adapting sure thats your view.

I wanted to post the video and this was one of the 1st that popped up on google man take it easy.

I understand rhetoric and the own internal biases we have. This could even evolve into a huge debate in moral and cultural relativism. However, I'll remain with the belief that there is no universal truth that is unaffected by time, place, and/or culture. Also, I am quite stoic in my words, but feel the need to be the devil's advocate in defending the actions and dialogue that was presented in that link.

I say, hop on over to the desert for a while. Spend a few days wondering which child has an IED shoved in his pants, which car on the side of the road is packed full of C4, or what time in the morning the RPG's will stop flying atop your head, or how about, spend one day wondering which one of the ****s hiding with a gun is going to try and kill you next. THEN, let's see who is and who is not happy to get rid of a potential threat. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif

Beware the leader who bangs the drums of war in order to whip the citizenry into a patriotic fervor, for patriotism is indeed a double-edged sword. It both emboldens the blood, just as it narrows the mind. And when the drums of war have reached a fever pitch and the blood boils with hate and the mind has closed, the leader will have no need in seizing the rights of the citizenry. Rather, the citizenry, infused with fear and blinded by patriotism, will offer up all of their rights unto the leader and gladly so. How do I know? For this is what I have done. And I am Caesar."

-- Julius Caesar
