This insanity has gone far enough -

This sounds much like the horrific silliness before Afghanistan and Iraq. I wish someone had had the courage to speak out and perhaps try to stop that.

Just think how much better off thousands of Americans would have been and untold numbers of middle eastern people if someone had stopped the war machine. Think how much our debt is due to these horrible, and unnecessary wars in the ME.

Think about this, the news media has been totally against anything good getting done for this country since Pres. Trumps election - yet they seem to be OK with a war with NK. So how good could it be?

They liked the idea of invading Iraq. They liked it so well, 50% of the American people actually thought Saddam Hussein had something to do with 9/11.
