----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- What I am saying for example is when the USA drop bombs on the people they can not see, this is not feeling in the heart all the pain of the people that suffer and die. The people of the country where the bombs blow up can see the pain and death, but not USA people. ISIS show one person on the media. They show that person is alive, is captured. We can see the fear in the eyes. We can see the pain of their family crying on the media to not kill their child. So when the terrorist kill them, all the world remember when they look in the eyes of that man alive, but now he is dead. Just like the same when USA or any country bomb people they do not see, so they do not see them in their eyes, alive.
War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things: the decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth a war, is much worse. When a people are used as mere human instruments for firing cannon or thrusting bayonets, in the service and for the selfish purposes of a master, such war degrades a people. A war to protect other human beings against tyrannical injustice; a war to give victory to their own ideas of right and good, and which is their own war, carried on for an honest purpose by their free choice, — is often the means of their regeneration. A man who has nothing which he is willing to fight for, nothing which he cares more about than he does about his personal safety, is a miserable creature who has no chance of being free, unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself. As long as justice and injustice have not terminated their ever-renewing fight for ascendancy in the affairs of mankind, human beings must be willing, when need is, to do battle for the one against the other.
As a 30+ year military veteran who has been sent to combat multiple times by both Democrats and Republicans, I can unequivocally state that you are completely ignorant on this entire subject. Like all veterans, I served to support and defend the Constitution. The Constitution that allows you to freely express your opinions. I don't want nor expect any gratitude from you for my and every veteran's sacrifices that allow you to make jackass statements. And almost all veterans including myself would, if called upon, defend your right to free speech tomorrow. We will view you with contempt but we will defend your right to spew your ignorant rants with our lives. I doubt you would risk a hair on your head to defend your own right of free speech - your ilk would rather live on your knees than die on your feet. As stated by John Stuart Mill, you are a miserable creature.
We may have served to support and defend the Constitution, but what we were in fact doing was filling the coffers of the military-industrial complex. And nothing's changed.
