AN AMERICANS COMMENT ON MY MAP ABOUT GRAND CONTRADICTIONS IN US STRATEGY

Thus - only way to stop American adventurism is a Draft that means all families will be looking at what we are doing overseas and ask, "Is this really a War of Necessity" as our beloved president claims and in most cases they will say "NO!!!"
 

  The other problem is that we are an all volunteer professional army.  Thus, the average family doesn't worry about their son or daughter going to ear - not their problem.  Thus the majority of Americans are not affected by our foreign interventions until something like 911 and then we get this "Blind Flag Waving Patriotism" and don't ask why - we just say go and get the baddies - giving our political elites and the military industrial complex free reign!!
 
My guess is many of the young lower rank soldiers are not that well educated & come from lower middleclass or poor families - the military guarantees them a job, food, clothes, roof over their heads and given today's economy - not a bad deal.  They are easily turned into killing machines and if they die - other than their immediate families - they are like beggars in the street - cannon fodder, expendable  - that no one cares about - likely the case for most militaries - you won't see the sons and daughters of the elite on the front lines if at all - and if at all most likely they will be protected in the Green Zone!
 

Major Amin: Thanks - a picture tells a 1,000 words as they say.  You are educating a lot of people.  I am sorry but our political elites don't represent our people and I fear many of the youth are brainwashed with filtered information and ideology - they haven't lived and seen the world so are easily manipulated and mislead.  I guess this is a global problem today and you with think with the INTERNET and the information age it would be hard to do - but our media is controlled by the corporates.
