RE: The Moon Tonight: Thoughts About a "Quiet Death"

Most Americans have become inured to war in other places

Putting moral considerations aside (how can we do that?), this country is profoundly affected by the wars we wage. From the national debt, to waves of displaced people seeking safe harbor, to acts of terror--we are affected at home. Plus the erosion of constitutional provisions (eroded over many years)...all of this hits home.

It was cathartic to get this out, and reassuring to get confirming responses to this blog.
